Condensed Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Business Operations
The interim condensed consolidated financial statements of Thunder Mountain Gold, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, "Thunder Mountain", "THMG", or "the Company") are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, and disclosures necessary for the fair statement of these interim statements have been included. The results reported in these interim statements may not be indicative of the results which will be reported for the year ending December 31, 2026. The condensed consolidated December 31, 2025 balance sheet data was derived from audited consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
Business Operations
Thunder Mountain Gold, Inc. ("Thunder Mountain", "THMG", or "the Company") was originally incorporated under the laws of the State of Idaho on November 9, 1935, under the name of Montgomery Mines, Inc. In April 1978, the Montgomery Mines Corporation was obtained by a group of the Thunder Mountain property holders and changed its name to Thunder Mountain Gold, Inc., with the primary goal to further develop their holdings in the Thunder Mountain Mining District, located in Valley County, Idaho. Thunder Mountain Gold, Inc. takes its name from the Thunder Mountain Mining District, where its principal lode mining claims were located. For several years, the Company's activities were restricted to maintaining its property position and exploration activities. During 2005, the Company sold its holdings in the Thunder Mountain Mining District. During 2007, the Company acquired the South Mountain Mines property in southwest Idaho and initiated exploration activities on that property, which continue today.
Basis of Presentation and Going Concern
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the assumption that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has historically incurred losses, however, the Company has cash reserves sufficient to cover normal operating expenses for the following 12 months. If necessary, the Company continues to have the ability to raise additional capital in order to fund its future exploration and working capital requirements.
Principles of Consolidation
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company; its wholly owned subsidiaries, Thunder Mountain Resources, Inc. ("TMRI") and South Mountain Mines, Inc. ("SMMI"); and a company in which the Company owns
Accounting Estimates
The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make 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 the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The more significant areas requiring the use of management estimates and assumptions include the carrying value of properties and mineral interests, environmental remediation liabilities, deferred tax assets, and stock-based compensation. Management's estimates and assumptions are based on historical experience and other assumptions believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Accounting Standards Updates
In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (Subtopic 220-40). The standard requires public business entities to disclose additional information about certain expense categories included in income statement captions, including purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, depletion, and amortization. The amendments also require qualitative disclosures regarding other significant expense components included within the same income statement captions. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027. The company is currently evaluating the impact of the standard on its consolidated financial statement disclosures.
Net Income (Loss) Per Share
The Company is required to have dual presentation of basic earnings per share ("EPS") and diluted EPS. The Company calculates basic earnings (loss) per share by dividing net income or loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the applicable reporting period. Diluted earnings per share reflect potentially dilutive common stock equivalents, including options and warrants that could share in our earnings through the conversion to common shares, except where their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, outstanding warrants of

Plan of Operations
The Company, including its subsidiaries, owns mining rights, mining claims, and properties in the mining areas of Nevada and Idaho, which includes its South Mountain Property in Idaho, and its Trout Creek Property in Nevada.
The Company owns 100% of the outstanding stock of Thunder Mountain Resources, Inc., a Nevada Corporation. Thunder Mountain Resources, Inc. owns 100% of the outstanding stock of South Mountain Mines, Inc. (SMMI), an Idaho Corporation. Thunder Mountain Resources, Inc. completed the direct purchase of 100% ownership of South Mountain Mines, Inc. on September 27, 2007, which at the time, consisted of 17 patented mining claims (approximately 327 acres) located in Owyhee County in southwestern Idaho. After the purchase, Thunder Mountain Resources staked an additional 34 unpatented lode claims covering approximately 550 acres and leased approximately 489 acres of private minerals and land. The Company subsequently acquired additional surface and mineral rights, including a 360-acre millsite property, and has continued to expand its land position through additional claim staking, lease agreements, and acquisitions of private mineral lands.
The Company's plan of operation for the next twelve months, subject to available capital and market conditions, will be to continue to advance the South Mountain Project, including continued baseline environmental and engineering work necessary to complete a Preliminary Economic Analysis (PEA). The Company plans to continue to pursue and evaluate options to advance the South Mountain Project and acquire additional properties through partnerships, joint ventures, option agreements, and strategic relationships.
The Company's project activities during the first six months of 2026 focused on land acquisition, continued compilation of historic data and initiation of target drill testing at the South Mountain Project. On April 28, 2026 the Company executed a 20-year mineral lease (Lease) with the Idaho Department of Lands (IDL) covering 3,675 acres of state-owned land adjacent to the Company's South Mountain Mines Property. The lease of IDL lands supplements patented claims and private leased lands currently controlled by the Company and on which exploration activities are focusing.
15
A total of over 14,000 acres of mineral rights are now controlled by the Company through private party lease agreements, the lease with the IDL, Bureau of Land Management unpatented claims, and direct ownership of patented claims.
The project geology consists of interbedded limestone, marble, quartzite and schist units which were intruded by granite-like magmas including a breccia which is known to be enriched in gold (Figure 1). A thin layer of younger basaltic volcanic rocks partially covers the project area. Company geologists believe these cover rocks may obscure mineral deposits from historic discovery without available modern geophysical and geochemical techniques. The project area is now recognized as prospective for massive sulfide deposits, but also for large scale disseminated copper deposits associated with granitic rocks.
Key results of exploration activities during the second quarter of 2026 include updates to the project geologic map (Figure 1), reprocessing of historic induced polarization/resistivity geophysical data into modern formats, recovery of district-scale rock multi-element geochemical data showing strong anomalous concentrations of silver, zinc, lead, copper, and gold. These anomalies are generally associated with the Laxey marble which is the favored host rock formation for massive sulfide mineralization at South Mountain.
Exploration targets were refined through ongoing interpretation of 2025 magneto-telluric (MT) data and regional rock geochemistry. During the reporting period, work focused on evaluating potential extensions of massive sulfide mineralization beyond the 800-meter zone of known occurrences (Figure 1), as well as gold and copper potential associated with the gold breccia. Core drilling commenced late in the second quarter.

Financial Condition
Results of Operations:
For the three months ended June 30, 2026, the Company reported a net loss of $1,012,310, compared to a net loss of $899,115 for the comparable period in 2025. The increase in net loss of $113,195, or 13%, was primarily attributable to higher exploration and legal and accounting expenses associated with advancing the Company's mineral properties and ongoing corporate activities, partially offset by lower management and administrative expenses, including reduced stock-based compensation expense.
Three-month period comparisons
Operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2026, totaled $1,014,772, an increase of $115,409, or 13%, compared to $899,363 for the same period in 2025. The increase was primarily attributable to increased exploration expenditures and higher legal and accounting costs, partially offset by lower management and administrative expenses, including reduced stock-based compensation expense.
Exploration expenditures totaled $741,034 for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $278,889 for the same period in 2025, representing an increase of $462,145, or 166%. The increase primarily reflects expanded exploration activities and continued advancement of the Company's South Mountain Project.
Legal and accounting expenses totaled $116,177 for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $29,442 for the same period in 2025, representing an increase of $86,735, or 295%. The increase primarily reflects higher professional service fees associated with financial reporting, SEC compliance, audit and accounting support, and other ongoing corporate activities.
Management and administrative expenses totaled $157,561 for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $591,032 for the same period in 2025, representing a decrease of $433,471, or 73%. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower stock-based compensation expense recognized during the current period.
Six-month period comparisons
Operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2026, totaled $1,609,367, an increase of $168,658, or 12%, compared to $1,440,709 for the same period in 2025. The increase was primarily attributable to increased exploration expenditures and higher legal and accounting costs, partially offset by lower management and administrative expenses.
Exploration expenditures totaled $908,162 for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $345,962 for the same period in 2025, representing an increase of $562,200, or 163%. The increase primarily reflects expanded exploration activities and continued advancement of the Company's South Mountain Project.
Legal and accounting expenses totaled $211,363 for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $75,252 for the same period in 2025, representing an increase of $136,111, or 181%. The increase primarily reflects higher professional service fees associated with SEC reporting, financial reporting, regulatory compliance, audit and accounting support, and ongoing corporate governance activities.
Management and administrative expenses totaled $489,842 for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $1,019,495 for the same period in 2025, representing a decrease of $529,653, or 52%. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower stock-based compensation expense recognized during the current period.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company is in the exploration stage and has not generated revenues from operations. Accordingly, the Company is dependent upon external financing to fund its operations and advance its exploration activities.
As of June 30, 2026, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $1,105,279, compared with $2,592,167 as of December 31, 2025. As of August 7, 2026, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $3,390,680. This amount includes approximately $2.8 million of subscription proceeds received in connection with an additional tranche of the private placement described in Note 9, which had not closed as of the date of this report, as well as $50,000 collected in July 2026 on the subscription receivable related to the Company's October 2025 private placement. Management believes the Company's existing cash resources are sufficient to fund its planned operations for at least the next twelve months.
18
The Company's future liquidity and capital requirements will depend on many factors, including the timing and cost of its exploration activities, evaluation of strategic alternatives and related decisions, and regulatory requirements. The Company's short-term liquidity needs consist primarily of exploration expenditures, lease payments, salaries, administrative expenses, and required principal and interest payments under the seller-financed promissory note issued in December 2025. Longer-term liquidity requirements include potential construction and equipment costs if the Company is able to advance its mining project toward production.
If the Company does not have sufficient cash to complete its exploration programs, it intends to seek additional funding through equity or debt financings or adjust its business plans accordingly. The Company may also consider alternative sources of funding, including potential mergers, asset sales, or additional agreements related to its exploration properties.
During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company used net cash in operating activities of $1,236,639, compared to net cash used in operating activities of $690,493 for the same period in 2025. The increase in cash used in operating activities during the current period was primarily attributable to higher exploration expenditures, increased professional fees, and changes in working capital, including higher prepaid expenses and other assets, partially offset by an increase in accounts payable and other accrued liabilities.
During the six months ended June 30, 2026, net cash used in investing activities was $290,249, compared to no investing activity during the same period in 2025. Investing activities during the current period consisted primarily of expenditures related to the acquisition of mineral properties and claim staking, as well as a collateral bond deposit associated with the Idaho State mineral lease.
During the six months ended June 30, 2026, net cash provided by financing activities was $40,000, compared to $1,270,000 for the same period in 2025. Financing activities during the current period consisted of proceeds from the exercise of stock options, while the prior period included proceeds from the issuance of common stock and warrants.
The Company experienced a net decrease in cash and cash equivalents of $1,486,888 for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to a net increase of $579,507 for the same period in 2025.
Going Concern
The condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-Q have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business.
The Company is in the exploration stage and has not generated revenues from operations. As of the date of this report, management believes the Company has sufficient cash to meet its normal operating requirements for at least the next twelve months. However, the Company's ability to continue to advance its exploration activities is dependent on its ability to obtain additional financing.
The Company plans, as funding allows, to continue advancing its South Mountain Project and to conduct exploration activities on its mineral properties. The extent and timing of these activities will depend on the availability of capital.
There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available on acceptable terms, or at all. If additional financing is not obtained, the Company may be required to reduce or delay its exploration activities and other expenditures in order to conserve cash and maintain its mineral property interests.
Contractual Obligations
The Company holds several leases pertaining to land parcels adjacent to its South Mountain patented and unpatented mining claims. The details of these leases are as follows:
19
Lowry Lease:
On October 24, 2008, the Company executed a lease agreement with William and Nita Lowry for a duration of 6 years, encompassing 376 acres at a rate of $20 per acre. The lease incorporated an option to extend for an additional 10 years at a revised rate of $30 per acre. Following the passing of the original lessors, the lease was inherited by Michael Lowry, their son. Commencing October 24, 2025, the Company executed an extension to the lease agreement with Michael Lowry for an additional 21 years, through October 24, 2046. Under the amended lease agreement, the annual rental payments for the first seven years increased to $40 per acre. The rental rate increases to $50 per acre for the second seven-year period and to $60 per acre for the final seven-year period.
Looten Lease:
On June 2, 2025, the Company executed a lease agreement with Kevin and Jo Looten for an initial term of 7 years, encompassing 18 acres at a rate of $30 per acre. The lease incorporates an option to extend for an additional 10 years at a revised rate of $40 per acre.
Lequerica & Sons Lease:
On August 22, 2025, the Company executed a lease agreement with Lequerica & Sons, Inc. for an initial term of 7 years, encompassing 432 acres at a rate of $30 per acre. The lease incorporates an option to extend for an additional 7 years at a revised rate of $40 per acre. The lease agreement also contains a right of first refusal in favor of the Company with respect to the underlying property, exercisable upon a proposed sale by the lessor.
OGT, LLC:
SMMI is the sole manager of the South Mountain Project in its entirety through a separate Mining Lease with Option to Purchase ("Lease Option") with the Company's majority-owned subsidiary OGT. SMMI has an option to purchase the South Mountain mineral interest for a capped $5 million less net returns royalties paid through the date of exercise. The Lease Option expires in November 2026. Under the Lease Option, SMMI paid annual $5,000 net returns royalty payments to OGT through November 2025. The final $5,000 payment was made in November 2025, and no further payments are required under this arrangement.
Idaho State Mineral Lease:
In March 2026, the Company was awarded mineral lease rights on 3,675 acres of Idaho state land through a competitive auction process and submitted a winning bid of $210,000. In connection with the lease, the Company paid 2026 lease rent of $10,495 and a minimum annual royalty of $10,000. The lease was executed on April 28, 2026, has an initial 20-year term, and requires annual lease payments and minimum royalty obligations to maintain the lease in good standing.
The leases and net royalty payments are summarized in the following table:

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
At the end of the period covered by this report, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision of, and with the participation of, the Company's management, including our principal executive and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended).

Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2026 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
We are not aware of any material pending litigation or of any proceedings known to be contemplated by governmental authorities which are, or would be, likely to have a material adverse effect, individually or in the aggregate, upon us or our operations, taken as a whole. No director, officer or affiliate of Thunder Mountain and no owner of record or beneficial owner of more than 5% of our securities or any associate of any such director, officer or security holder is a party adverse to Thunder Mountain or has a material interest adverse to Thunder Mountain in reference to any currently pending material litigation.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
Factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q include the risk factors described in the Company's 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Any of these risk factors could result in a significant or material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and/or results of operations. Additional risks and uncertainties currently unknown to us, or that we currently deem to be immaterial, also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, or future results. As of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, there have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in the Company's 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K, other than as set forth below.
Mineral resources are subject to further exploration and development, are subject to additional risks, and no assurance can be given that they will eventually convert to future reserves. Inferred Resources have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and their economic and legal feasibility. Mineral interests are periodically assessed for impairment of value and any subsequent losses are charged to operations at the time of impairment. Thunder Mountain Gold evaluated these impairment considerations and determined that no such impairments occurred as of June 30, 2026.
Risks Related to Our Company
We have a history of losses and expect to continue to incur losses in the future.
21
We have incurred losses since inception and expect to continue to incur losses in the future. We had an accumulated deficit of approximately $12,232,546 as of June 30, 2026. We expect to continue to incur losses unless and until such time as one of our properties enters into commercial production and generates sufficient revenues to fund continuing operations. We recognize that if we are unable to generate significant revenues from mining operations and dispositions of our properties, we will not be able to earn profits or continue operations. At this early stage of our operation, we also expect to face the risks, uncertainties, expenses, and difficulties frequently encountered by companies at the start-up stage of their business development. We cannot be sure that we will be successful in addressing these risks and uncertainties and our failure to do so could have a materially adverse effect on our financial condition.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.
There were no unregistered sales of equity securities by the Company during our fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2026, other than those disclosed below and reported in Current Reports on Form 8-K.
During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company received proceeds of $40,000 from the exercise of 250,000 stock options, including 100,000 options at an exercise price of $0.10 per share and 150,000 options at an exercise price of $0.20 per share.
The above-described sale and issuance of common shares was not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended ("Securities Act"), or the securities laws of any state, are subject to resale restrictions and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration under the Securities Act or an exemption therefrom. The foregoing sale of securities has been determined to be exempt from registration in reliance on Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act as transactions by an issuer not involving a public offering.
Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities.
None.
Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures
Pursuant to Section 1503(a) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (the "Dodd-Frank Act"), issuers that are operators, or that have a subsidiary that is an operator, of a coal or other mine in the United States are required to disclose in their periodic reports filed with the SEC information regarding specified health and safety violations, orders and citations, related assessments and legal actions, and mining-related fatalities.
The information concerning mine safety violations or other regulatory matters required by Section 1503(a) of the Dodd-Frank Act and Item 104 of Regulation S-K is included in exhibit 95 to this Quarterly Report.
During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company did not have any operating mines and therefore had no such specified health and safety violations, orders or citations, related assessments or legal actions, mining-related fatalities, or similar events in relation to the Company's U.S. operations requiring disclosure pursuant to Section 1503(a) of the Dodd-Frank Act.
Item 5. Other Information
