1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of all recurring accruals) considered necessary for fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended April 30, 2009. Interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Companys annual audited financial statements.
The interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Yukon Gold Corporation, Inc. (the Company) and its wholly owned subsidiary Yukon Gold Corp. (YGC). All material inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
2. GOING CONCERN
The Company's financial statements are presented on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has no source for operating revenue and expects to incur significant expenses before establishing operating revenue. Because of continuing operating losses, negative working capital, stockholders deficiency and cash outflows from operations, the Companys continuance as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain adequate financing and to reach profitable levels of operation. In the event that the Company is unable to raise additional capital, as to which there is no assurance, the Company will not be able to continue doing business. The Companys future success is dependent upon its continued ability to raise sufficient capital, not only to maintain its operating expenses, but to explore for reserves. There is no guarantee that such capital will be available on acceptable terms, if at all or if the Company will attain profitable levels of operation.
The Company is actively pursuing equity and short-term bridge loan financing, which may include financing backed by a pledge of some or all of the Companys exploration property assets. The Company also is simultaneously exploring opportunities to effect business combinations or joint ventures involving additional mining assets that may provide opportunities for greater long-term financing.
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally acceptable accounting principles applicable to a going concern. Accordingly, they do not give effect to adjustments that would be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern and therefore be required 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 consolidated financial statements.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION
FOR THE THREE MONTH PERIOD
ENDED JULY 31,
2009
Discussion of Operations & Financial Condition
Yukon Gold has no source of revenue and we continue to operate at a loss. We expect our operating losses to continue for so long as we remain in an exploration stage and perhaps thereafter. As at July 31, 2009, we had accumulated losses of $14,918,377. These losses raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our ability to emerge from the exploration stage and conduct mining operations is dependent, in large part, upon our raising additional equity financing.
As described in greater detail below, the Companys major endeavor over the year has been its effort to raise additional capital to meet its administrative expenses and pursue its exploration activities. The Company does not currently have sufficient working capital to continue as a reporting company in the United States and Canada. We are working urgently to obtain additional financing, which may entail the acquisition of additional properties in order to attract such financing.

The only gain generated by the Company during the three month period ended July 31, 2009 was the sale of the Mount Hinton property for a total cash consideration of $110,306 (CDN$125,000). As all costs incurred in acquisition and exploration had been expensed, the entire cash proceeds are recognized as gain during the quarter.
Net Loss
The Company's expenses are reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Operations under the category of Operating Expenses. To meet the criteria of United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), all exploration and general and administrative costs related to projects are charged to operations in the year incurred.
20
The significant components of expense that have contributed to the total operating expense are discussed as follows:
(a) General and Administrative Expense
Included in operating expenses for the three months ended July 31, 2009 is general and administrative expense of $114,131 as compared to $366,810 for the three months ended July 31, 2008. General and administrative expense decreased substantially due to Managements endeavor to reduce costs.
(b) Project Expense
Included in operating expenses for the three months ended July 31, 2009 is project expenses of $5,454 as compared with $1,171,909 for the three months ended July 31, 2008. Project expense was a significant expense in the prior period where it represents approximately 75.6% of the total operating expense for the three months ended July, 2008. The Company incurred very little costs during this quarter due to lack of funding.
Agreement with Hinton Syndicate Concerning our Former Mount Hinton Property
The following disclosure relates to our former property known as the Mount Hinton property. Our interest in the Mount Hinton property was sold on May 21, 2009.
On July 7, 2002 YGC, the Companys wholly owned subsidiary, entered into an option agreement with the Hinton Syndicate to acquire a 75% interest in the 273 unpatented mineral claims covering approximately 14,000 acres in the Mayo Mining District of Yukon, Canada. This agreement was replaced with a revised and amended agreement (the Hinton Option Agreement) dated July 7, 2005 which superseded the original agreement and amendments thereto. The new agreement was between the Company, its wholly owned subsidiary YGC and the Hinton Syndicate.
The Hinton Option Agreement pertained to an area of interest which included the area within ten kilometres of the outermost boundaries of the 273 mineral claims, which constituted our mineral properties. Either party to the Hinton Option Agreement could stake claims outside the 273 mineral claims, but each must notify the other party if such new claims were within the area of interest. The non-staking party could then elect to have the new claims included within the Hinton Option Agreement. As of December 11, 2006, there were an additional 24 claims staked, known as the Gram Claims which became subject to the Hinton Option Agreement. On May 21, 2009, Gram Claims 1-24 were conveyed by the Companys wholly owned subsidiary to a member of the Hinton Syndicate. On June 16, 2008 an additional 18 claims were staked (#25-#42), known as the Gram Claims, at a cost of $8,679 (CDN$8,887), which became subject to the Hinton Option Agreement. On May 5, 2009 the Company transferred all of its interest in Gram Claims 25-42 to a member of the Hinton Syndicate.
On May 21, 2009, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, YGC, sold its interest in the Mount Hinton Property to the Hinton Syndicate. All of the claims comprising the Mount Hinton Property were conveyed by the Companys subsidiary to a member of the Hinton Syndicate.
21
The Hinton Syndicate paid the Company (i) $110,306 (CDN$125,000) on May 21, 2009 and (ii) granted to the Companys subsidiary a 2% Net Smelter Royalty (an NSR) on the Mount Hinton Property claims. Such 2% NSR may be terminated at any time by payment to Yukon Gold of the following:
If the payment is made to Yukon Gold within the 12- month anniversary of the Closing: | $89,453 (CDN$115,000) | ||
If the payment is made to Yukon Gold after the 12- month anniversary of the Closing but before the 24- month anniversary of the Closing: | $129,930 (CDN$140,000) | ||
If the payment is made to Yukon Gold after the 24- month anniversary of the Closing but before the 36- month anniversary of the Closing: | $153,132 (CDN$165,000) | ||
If the payment is made to Yukon Gold after the 36- month anniversary of the Closing but before the 48- month anniversary of the Closing: | $176,334 (CDN$190,000) | ||
If the payment is made to Yukon Gold after the 48- month anniversary of the Closing, it shall be increased by $23,202 (CDN$25,000) for each 12-month period following the 49-month anniversary of the Closing |
In addition, Yukon Golds subsidiary assigned its work permit to a member of the Hinton Syndicate and the Hinton Syndicate became responsible for any reclamation costs imposed by the government of Yukon in connection with the work permit. As of May 21, 2009, Yukon Gold and its subsidiary have no further interest or obligations with respect to the Mount Hinton Property.
Exploration
During the year ended April 30, 2009, the Company completed its acquisition of the Marg property and currently owns it outright. The Marg Property consists of 402 contiguous mineral claims covering approximately 20,000 acres. Access to the claim group is possible either by helicopter, based in Mayo, Yukon Territory, Canada, located approximately 80 km to the southwest or by small aircraft to a small airstrip located near the Marg deposit. A 50 kilometer winter road from Keno City to the property boundary was completed in 1997. The camp site on the property provides accommodation for up to 12 people. Presently the hydroelectric power grid terminates at Keno City some 50km to the southwest and water is available from the Keno Ladue River, which flows through the property.
.For more information regarding our exploration activities on our properties during the fiscal year ended April 30, 2009, see Item 2 "Description of Property" in the 10K filed for year ended April 30, 2009.

Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments, particularly those related to the determination of the estimated Canadian exploration tax credit receivable and accrued liabilities. To the extent actual results differ from those estimates, our future results of operations may be affected. Besides this critical accounting policy on use of estimates, we believe the following critical accounting policy affects the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.
Acquisition, Exploration and Evaluation Expenditures
The Company is an exploration stage mining company and has not yet realized any revenue from its operations. It is primarily engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mining properties. Mineral property exploration costs are expensed as incurred. Mineral property payments are capitalized only if the Company is able to allocate any economic value beyond proven and probable reserves. 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 will be capitalized. For the purpose of preparing financial information, the Company is unable to allocate any economic value beyond proven and probable reserves and hence all property payments are considered to be impaired and accordingly written off to project expense. All costs associated with a property that has the potential to add to the Companys proven and probable reserves are expensed until a final feasibility study demonstrating the existence of proven and probable reserves is completed. No costs have been capitalized in the periods covered by these financial statements. Once capitalized, such costs will be amortized using the units-of-production method over the estimated life of the probable reserve.
Mineral property acquisition costs will also be capitalized in accordance with the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue 04-2 when management has determined that probable future benefits consisting of a contribution to future cash inflows have been identified and that adequate financial resources are available or are expected to be available as required to meet the terms of property acquisition and budgeted exploration and development expenditures. Mineral property payments are expensed as incurred if the criteria for capitalization is not met.
To date, mineral property exploration costs have been expensed as incurred. As of the date of these financial statements, the Company has incurred only property payments and exploration costs which have been expensed. To date the Company has not established any proven or probable reserves on its mineral properties.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
(a) | Disclosure Controls and Procedures. The Company's management, with the participation of the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, respectively, has evaluated the effectiveness 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 at July 31, 2009. Based on such evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer of the Company, respectively, have concluded that, as of the end of the current quarter, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective. |
(b) | Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. There have not been any changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended July 31, 2009 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting. |
(c) | Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls. We believe that a control system, no matter how well designed and operated, cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the control system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected. |
DISCLOSURE AND FINANCIAL CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
The board of directors has concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective. There have been no significant changes in these controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation, including any corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses.
Internal financial controls and procedures have been designed under the supervision of the Company's board of directors and reviewed by an independent auditor. The internal financial controls provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of the Company's financial reporting and preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principals. There have been no significant changes in these controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls since they were instituted, including any corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses.

Item 1A. RISK FACTORS
1. |
WE HAVE VERY LIMITED WORKING CAPITAL AND MAY NOT BE ABLE TO CONTINUE TO COMPLY WITH APPLICABLE REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS AND THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE EXCHANGES ON WHICH OUR SHARES TRADE. |
Yukon Gold does not have sufficient working capital to maintain its ongoing operations, to prepare and file regular reports required to meet the disclosure requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission or the Ontario Securities Commission or to meet the requirements of the exchanges on which our stock trades. We run the risk of being de-listed on all exchanges on which our stock currently trades.
25
On August 26, 2009, the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX"), announced that it would de-list the Companys common shares, effective at the close of the market on September 25, 2009. The decision was based upon the Companys failure to meet multiple listing requirements of TSX. The Company is appealing this decision.
2. |
WE MAY HAVE TO PURCHASE ADDITION MINERAL PROPERTIES TO SECURE FINANCNG AND REMAIN VIABLE. |
Yukon Gold must immediately secure additional financing to remain viable. Management of Yukon Gold believes that we must identify and purchase new mineral properties in order to obtain such financing.
3. |
WE DO NOT HAVE AN OPERATING BUSINESS. |
Yukon Gold has rights in certain mineral claims located in Yukon, Canada. To date we have done limited exploration of the property covered by our mineral claims. We do not have a mine or a mining business of any kind. There is no assurance that we will develop an operating business in the future.
4. |
WE HAVE NO SOURCE OF OPERATING REVENUE AND EXPECT TO INCUR SIGNIFICANT EXPENSES BEFORE ESTABLISHING AN OPERATING COMPANY, IF WE ARE ABLE TO ESTABLISH AN OPERATING COMPANY AT ALL. |
Currently, we have no source of revenue, we do not have working capital to complete our exploration programs (including feasibility studies) and we do not have any commitments to obtain additional financing. We have no operating history upon which an evaluation of our future success or failure can be made. Our ability to achieve and maintain profitability and positive cash flow is dependent upon:
-
our ability to raise the capital necessary to conduct this exploration and preserve our interest in these mineral claims;
-
our ability to raise capital to develop the Marg Property, establish a mining operation, and operate this mine in a profitable manner; and.
-
our ability to raise capital to purchase additional properties that may make our business more attractive to investors in exploration stage mining companies.
Failure to raise the necessary capital to continue exploration and development could cause us to go out of business.
5. |
GOING CONCERN QUALIFICATION. |
The Company has included a going concern qualification in the Consolidated Financial Statements to the effect that we are an exploration stage company and have no established sources of revenue. In the event that we are unable to raise additional capital and/or locate mineral resources, as to which in each case there can be no assurance, we may not be able to continue our operations. In addition, the existence of the going concern qualification in our auditors report may make it more difficult for us to obtain additional financing. If we are unable to obtain additional financing, you may lose all or part of your investment.
26
6. |
THERE ARE PENNY STOCK SECURITIES LAW CONSIDERATIONS THAT COULD LIMIT YOUR ABILITY TO SELL YOUR SHARES. |
Our common stock is considered a "penny stock" and the sale of our stock by you will be subject to the "penny stock rules" of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The penny stock rules require broker-dealers to take steps before making any penny stock trades in customer accounts. As a result, our shares could be illiquid and there could be delays in the trading of our stock which would negatively affect your ability to sell your shares and could negatively affect the trading price of your shares.
7. |
OUR BUSINESS IS SUBJECT TO CURRENCY RISKS. |
The Company conducts the majority of its business activities in Canadian dollars. Consequently, the Company is subject to gains or losses due to fluctuations in Canadian currency relative to the US dollar.
