| NOTES TO INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
| FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2025 AND 2024 |
| (Unaudited) |
| 1. | BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS |
FinTrade Sherpa, Inc. (formerly Lode-Star Mining Inc.) (“the Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada, U.S.A., on December 9, 2004. The Company’s principal executive offices are in Reno, Nevada. The Company was originally formed to acquire exploration stage natural resource properties.
In February 2025, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement, License Agreement, Software Development Agreement and Lock-up and Leak-Out Agreements associated with its business objective to develop an artificial intelligence powered financial research platform (Note 3).
On February 14, 2025, the Company changed its name from Lode-Star Mining Inc. to FinTrade Sherpa, Inc. to align with its new business model.
The Company is developing software focused on providing innovative AI driven research solutions and market intelligence tools for retail and institutional investors. Our mission is to democratize institutional grade financial research by making sophisticated AI driven market analysis accessible to investors, financial professionals and institutions worldwide through our AI Alpha Optimus platform.
Going Concern
The
accompanying unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The future
of the Company is dependent upon its ability to establish a business and to obtain new financing to execute its business plan. As shown
in the accompanying unaudited interim financial statements, the Company has had no revenue and has incurred accumulated losses of $
Basis of Presentation
The unaudited interim financial information reflects all adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to fairly state the Company’s financial position and the results of its operations for the periods presented. These unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. The Company assumes that the users of the interim financial information herein have read, or have access to, the audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024, and that the adequacy of additional disclosure needed for a fair presentation may be determined in that context. Accordingly, certain footnote disclosures, which would substantially duplicate the disclosures contained in the Company’s financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, have been omitted. The results of operations for the nine months ended September, 2025, are not necessarily indicative of results for the entire year ending December 31, 2025.
| 2. | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) with accounting policies as disclosed in the Company’s annual audited financial statements. Because a precise determination of many assets and liabilities is dependent upon future events, the preparation of financial statements for a period necessarily involves the use of estimates which have been made using careful judgment. All dollar amounts are in U.S. dollars unless otherwise noted. The financial statements have, in management’s opinion, been properly prepared within reasonable limits of materiality.
The Company has implemented all applicable new accounting pronouncements that are in effect. Those pronouncements did not have any material impact on the financial statements unless otherwise disclosed, and the Company does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

New Business
Asset Purchase Agreement
On February 14, 2025, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement whereby the Company agreed to purchase from a third-party (the “Seller”) rights, title, and interest in and to certain intellectual property, rights and derivative works, including improvements, modifications, creations and enhancements created by the Seller using artificial intelligence (“AI”) models. As consideration, the Company agreed to issue 227,000,000 common shares of the Company. At September 30, 2025, the transaction has not closed, and no shares have been issued in connection with the asset purchase agreement.
License Agreement
In connection with the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Company entered into a License Agreement that grants the Company an exclusive worldwide license to use certain AI technology. Under the License Agreement, the Company agreed to pay a total license fee of $440,000. Payable in monthly installments of $5,000. Upon payment in full, the license automatically converts into a perpetual, fully paid-up and irrevocable worldwide license. The Company commenced license payments on August 4, 2025. As at September 30, 2025, the Company had paid $10,000 and has postponed monthly installments while the Company develops the overlaying software.
Software Development Agreement
In connection with the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Company entered into an agreement with a group of software specialists to carry out certain software development activities on the Company’s behalf. In exchange for such services, the Company agreed to pay $123,000 within five days after the receipt by the Company of proceeds from equity financing of the Company from which the Company receives aggregate gross proceeds of not less than $200,000. The Company paid the $123,000 during the period ending September 30, 2025.
Lock-Up and Leak-Out Agreements
In connection with the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Company entered into Lock-Up and Leak-Out Agreements with the associated parties of the agreements on February 12, 2025 the parties agreed not to sell or engage in similar transactions with respect to any common stock other than shares received pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement for a period of 180 days after the closing on February 14, 2025. After the expiration of such period, the parties may transfer up to 20% of the shares received pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement every 60 days.
Funding
All of our ongoing operations have continued to be funded by monies advanced to us by Lode-Star Gold INC. (LSG), our largest shareholder. We do not currently have enough funds to carry out our entire plan of operations, so we intend to meet the balance of our cash requirements for the next 12 months through a combination of debt financing and equity financing through private placements. There is no assurance that we will be successful in completing any such financings.
If we are unsuccessful in obtaining sufficient funds through our capital raising efforts, we may review other financing options, although we cannot provide any assurance that any such options will be available to us or on terms reasonably acceptable to us. Regardless, our current cash reserves and working capital will not be sufficient for us to sustain our business for the next 12 months, even if we decide to scale back our operations.
Intellectual Property
The Company has in development its proprietary AI Alpha Optimus platform, The platform is an algorithmic research solution providing real-time market analysis, and comprehensive portfolio management tools that will help our clients navigate market volatility and identify profitable market opportunities.

Personnel
We have no employees. Our President, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer, Director and Secretary Mark Walmesley, receives no compensation for his services. We expect to continue to use outside consultants, advisors, attorneys and accountants as necessary.
Going Concern
There is substantial doubt that we can continue as an on-going business for the next twelve months unless we obtain additional capital to pay our expenses. This is because we have not generated any revenues to-date and we cannot currently estimate the timing of any possible future revenues. Our only source of cash at this time is from loans or investments by others in our common stock.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
At September 30, 2025, the Company’s total assets were $2,572 and total liabilities were $120,660. The Company’s working capital deficiency at September 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, and the changes between those dates were as follows:

| Working Capital Deficiency | (118,088 | ) | (168,502 | ) | 50,414 | -30 | % | |||||||||
The decrease in working capital deficiency from December 31, 2024, to September 30, 2025, was due to cash outflow from operating activities and an inflow from share issuance and related party advances.

We have yet to generate any revenues from our business operation and our ability to generate adequate amounts of cash to meet our needs is entirely dependent on the issuance of shares or loans, which have been our principal sources of working capital so far. For the foreseeable future, we will have to continue to rely on those sources for funding. We have no assurance that we can successfully engage in any further private sales of our securities or that we can obtain any additional loans.

| ITEM 4. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES. |
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We conducted an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures also include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer concluded that, as of September 30, 2025, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective, due to the size and nature of the existing business operation. Given the size of our current operation and existing personnel, the opportunity to implement disclosure control procedures is limited. Until the organization can increase sufficiently in size to warrant an increase in personnel required to effectively execute and monitor formal disclosure control procedures, those formal procedures will not be implemented. Given the current size of the organization, there are not significant levels of supervision, review, independent directors or a formal audit committee.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and are not required to provide information under this item. Our business is subject to risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise, including, without limitation, the items listed in Item 1A RISK FACTORS in our report filed on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
| ITEM 1 C. | CYBERSECURITY |
At present the Company has minimal risk related to Cybersecurity as no operational business is conducted on the internet or available through the internet.
Cybersecurity risk management will be an integral part of our overall enterprise risk management efforts once the Company has determined how and what security measures will need to be deployed. No enterprise risk can be eliminated entirely. We will seek to mitigate as much risk as possible and manage the remaining financial risk through a cyber insurance policy. The Company has chosen the National Institute of Standards (NIST) for its base framework because it is compatible with certain risk management business functions required by customers and US Government oversight. Controls in the SP 800-53 catalog will be tailored-in based on governance found in SP 800-171, internally determined IT General Controls, and industry best practices to create a balanced approach protecting confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
Governance
Our Board of Directors has primary responsibility for evaluating cybersecurity risk management, overseeing our major cybersecurity risk exposures and the steps management has taken to monitor and control these exposures, including policies and procedures for assessing and managing risk, as well as oversight of compliance related to legal and regulatory exposure.
The “to be newly formed” management positions responsible for assessing and managing cybersecurity risks will be a Director of Cybersecurity and a Chief Information Officer (“CIO”), who will report directly to our CFO. Presently our CFO is undertaking the actions of both the Director of Cybersecurity and CIO. The CIO will be responsible for ensuring that we have a cybersecurity risk management program in place that is fully aligned with business requirements and strategy.
| ITEM 2. | UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS. |
We had no unregistered sales of securities during the three months ended September 30, 2025.
Other than as disclosed above and in previous reports filed with the SEC, we have not issued any equity securities that were not registered under the Securities Act within the past three years.
