- NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND LIQUIDITY RISK
Quaterra Resources Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, "Quaterra" or the "Company") is a copper exploration company working on its mineral properties located in Nevada and Alaska, United States. The Company is incorporated in British Columbia, Canada. Its head office is located at 1100 - 1199 West Hastings Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, V6E 3T5. The Company's common shares are listed on the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV") under the symbol "QTA" and trade on the OTCQB Market under the symbol "QTRRF."
The Company acquires its mineral properties through option or lease agreements and capitalizes all acquisition, exploration and evaluation costs related to the properties. The underlying value of the amounts recorded as mineral properties does not reflect current or future values. The Company's continued existence depends on the economic recoverability of mineral reserves and its ability to acquire new properties and obtain funding to complete exploration activities.
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that the Company will realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. As of March 31, 2021, the Company had a working capital of $1,788,000. Along with the proceeds from its ongoing water rights sale (note 4), the Company believes that it has sufficient funds to sustain its operations for at least the next 12 months.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICY CHANGE
Statement of compliance
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared under International Accounting Standard 34, Interim Financial Reporting, using accounting policies consistent with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. The Company's significant accounting policies and critical accounting estimates applied in these financial statements are consistent with those described in Note 2 of the Company's audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020.
- Accounting estimates and judgments
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgments, estimates, and assumptions that affect the application of policies, reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Differences may be material.
Judgment is required in assessing whether certain factors would be considered an indicator of impairment. Both internal and external information is considered to determine whether there is an indicator of impairment present and, accordingly, whether impairment testing is required.
- MARKETABLE SECURITIES
The Company holds 1,942,795 common shares of Grande Portage Resources Ltd. with a market value of $512,000 (December 31, 2020 - $641,000). During the three months ended March 31, 2021, a $129,000 loss (March 31, 2020 - $68,000 gain) was recognized in the condensed interim consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss.

On February 24, 2021, the Company announced a purchase and sale agreement to sell certain primary groundwater rights to Desert Pearl Farms LLC, a Yerington-based company involved in agriculture, for $2,910,000. $1,000,000 was received on March 5, 2021, and the balance of $1,910,000 will be received upon closing, expected in August 2021. The proceeds were recognized as a reduction in the carrying value of the Yerington property when received.

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the lease agreement was further extended from six to seven years, providing the Company more time to make the required exploration expenditures and lump sum payment. To earn the 90% interest, the Company must fund a total of $5,000,000 ($2,529,000 funded) of exploration expenditure and make a lump sum payment to Chuchuna of $3,000,000 by the end of April 20, 2024.

On August 22, 2019, the Company entered into an option agreement with North Exploration, LLC, to earn a 100% interest in 600 unpatented mining claims in White Pine County, Nevada, for $600,000 over five years.

(In U.S. dollars)
| Quaterra Resources Inc. MD&A – Quarterly Highlights For the three months ended March 31, 2021 |
|---|
This Management's Discussion and Analysis ("MD&A") of Quaterra Resources Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, "Quaterra" or the "Company"), dated May 6, 2021, should be read in conjunction with the condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020 and related notes thereto. These financial statements have been prepared following International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"). All $ amounts in this MD&A are United States dollars unless otherwise noted.
Additional information about Quaterra, including the Company's press releases, quarterly and annual reports, is available through the Company's filings with the securities regulatory authorities in Canada at www.sedar.com or the United States Securities Exchange Commission at www.sec.gov/edgar. Information about mineral resources, as well as risks associated with investing in the Company's securities, is contained in the Company's most recently filed 20-F.
Performance Highlights
- Further water rights sale for $2,910,000
On February 24, 2021, the Company announced a third water rights sale to Desert Pearl Farms LLC for $2,910,000. $1,000,000 was received on March 5, 2021, and the balance of $1,910,000 will be received upon closing, expected in August 2021.
Funds from the sale will be used to progress the Company's MacArthur copper project, assess exploration opportunities and for general corporate purposes.
- Drilling at MacArthur Copper Oxide Property
On April 20, 2021, the Company announced that a 7,000-10,000-foot core drilling program would begin in early May at its MacArthur project in the Yerington District, Nevada.
Review of Operations and Financial Results
Mineral Properties
Quaterra continues to perform the work required to complete MacArthur's pre-feasibility study ("PFS"). The drill program announced on April 20, 2021 is the first major step toward completing the PFS, and it is designed to achieve three objectives with an estimated time frame of 2-3 months:
- Test the area east of the current resource for additional oxide mineralization
- Upgrade portions of the resource from Inferred to Indicated status
- Explore the under - drilled sulfide mineralization that exists beneath the oxide mineral resource.
As of March 31, 2021, the carrying value of $27,288,000 under mineral properties represents accumulated net acquisition and exploration costs and does not necessarily represent present or future values. The Company assesses for any indication of impairment at each reporting date or upon a triggering event that may identify impairment of a property's value. With the remaining water rights and anticipated high copper price, the Company assessed no impairment indicator existed as of March 31, 2021.
The Company plans to maintain its extensive Yerington land position, including water rights, and meet its minimum exploration funding obligations at the Groundhog property.

General Administrative Expenses
The scale and nature of the Company's corporate and administrative activity have remained relatively consistent over the periods presented. Quarterly fluctuation in losses has mainly been caused by non-cash fair value changes in the derivative liabilities, unrealized gain or loss on the marketable securities, and share-based compensation.
The following table sets out the quarterly financial information for each of the last eight quarters:

Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company is an exploration stage company that has not earned any production revenue. Its operations have been dependent mainly on proceeds from the sale of water rights in the last few years without diluting shareholders' value.
During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company spent $364,000 in operating activities (2020 - $307,000) and $78,000 (2020 - $112,000) in mineral property maintenance and technical work.
Under several mineral property option agreements, the Company is required to pay, at its discretion, a combined $753,000 ($68,000 paid year-to-date) in mineral property options and work commitment in 2021, plus mineral claim fees, to maintain its mineral properties in good standing.
During the three months ended March 31, 2021, 2,310,000 stock options were exercised at an average price of CAD 0.065. After quarter-end, further 1,140,000 options and 1,000,000 warrants were exercised at CAD 0.065 for total proceeds of CAD 139,100.
As of May 6, 2021, the Company has cash of $1,287,000 and believes its working capital plus proceeds from the water rights sale can sustain its operations for the next 12 months.
