Energizer Resources Inc.
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements
For the three month period ended September 30, 2015 and 2014
(Expressed in US Dollars)
1.
Nature of Operations and Going Concern
Energizer Resources Inc. (the "Company") is a State of Minnesota, United States of America incorporated entity. The Company's fiscal year end is June 30. The Company's principal business is the acquisition and exploration of mineral resources. During fiscal 2008, the Company incorporated Energizer Resources (Mauritius) Ltd., a Mauritius subsidiary and Energizer Resources Madagascar Sarl, a Madagascar subsidiary. During fiscal 2009, the Company incorporated THB Venture Ltd., a Mauritius subsidiary to hold the interest in Energizer Resources Minerals Sarl, a Madagascar subsidiary, which holds the Green Giant Property in Madagascar (see note 7). During fiscal 2012, the Company incorporated Madagascar‑ERG Joint Venture (Mauritius) Ltd., a Mauritius subsidiary and ERG (Madagascar) Sarl, a Madagascar subsidiary. ERG (Madagascar) Sarl is 100% owned by Madagascar‑ERG Joint Venture (Mauritius) Ltd. which is now 100% owned by Energizer Resources (Mauritius) Ltd. ERG (Madagascar) Sarl holds the Malagasy Joint Venture Ground (see note 7). During fiscal 2014, the Company incorporated 2391938 Ontario Inc., an Ontario, Canada subsidiary.
These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that the Company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has yet to generate revenue from mining operations or pay dividends and is unlikely to do so in the immediate or foreseeable future. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its shareholders, the ability of the Company to obtain necessary equity or debt financing to continue operations, the Company's ability to attract joint venture partners and off‑take contracts and the attainment of profitable operations.
As of September 30, 2015, the Company has accumulated losses of $92,276,699. As such, there is substantial doubt regarding the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
2.
Significant Accounting Policies
Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements
These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with those annual financial statements filed on Form 10‑K for the year ended June 30, 2015. In the opinion of management, these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements reflect adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods shown. The results of operations for such periods are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for a full year or for any future period.
Principals of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation
These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("U.S. GAAP"). These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Energizer Resources Inc. and its wholly‑owned subsidiaries, Energizer Resources (Mauritius) Ltd., THB Ventures Ltd., Energizer Resources Madagascar Sarl, Energizer Resources Minerals Sarl, Madagascar‑ERG Joint Venture (Mauritius) Ltd., ERG (Madagascar) Sarl and 2391938 Ontario Inc. All inter‑company balances and transactions have been eliminated on consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of these consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its judgments and estimates in relation to assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses. Management uses past experience and other factors as the basis for its judgments and estimates. Actual results may differ from those estimates. The impacts of estimates are pervasive throughout these consolidated financial statements and may require accounting adjustments based on future occurrences. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised and the revision affects current and future periods. Areas where significant estimates and assumptions are used include: the Binomial valuation of the warrant liability, the Black‑Scholes valuation of warrants and stock options issued, the valuation recorded for future income taxes and the assumption that the Company will receive title to the properties after the Madagascar political situation stabilizes.

Mineral Properties
Molo Graphite Property, Southern Madagascar Region, Madagascar
The Company entered into a Definitive Joint Venture Agreement ("JVA") on December 14, 2011 with Malagasy Minerals Limited ("Malagasy"), a public company on the Australian Stock Exchange, to acquire a 75% interest to explore and develop a group of industrial minerals, including graphite, vanadium and approximately 25 other minerals. The land position covers 2,119 permits and 827.7 square kilometers and is mostly adjacent to the south and east of the Company's 100% owned Green Giant Property. Pursuant to this agreement, the Company paid $2,261,690 and issued 7,500,000 common shares valued at $1,350,000.
On April 16, 2014, the Company signed a Sale and Purchase Agreement and a Mineral Rights Agreement with Malagasy to acquire the remaining 25% interest. The Company made the following payments at that time: $364,480 (CAD$400,000); issued 2,500,000 common shares subject to a 12 month voluntary vesting period and valued at $325,000; and issued 3,500,000 common share purchase warrants, valued at $320,950 using the Black‑Scholes pricing model with an exercise price of $0.14 and an expiry date of April 15, 2019. On May 20, 2015 the Company paid $546,000 (CAD$700,000), and issued 1,000,000 common shares valued at $100,000 due to the completion of a bankable feasibility study ("BFS") for the Molo Graphite Property.
A further cash payment of $801,584 (CAD$1,000,000) will be due within five days of the commencement of commercial production. Malagasy retains a 1.5% net smelter return royalty ("NSR") on the property. The Company also acquired a 100% interest to the industrial mineral rights on approximately 1‑1/2 additional claim blocks comprising 10,811 hectares to the east and adjoining the Molo Graphite Property.
Green Giant Property, Southern Madagascar Region, Madagascar
The Company acquired a 75% interest in the Green Giant property in 2007 and entered into a joint venture agreement with Madagascar Minerals and Resources Sarl ("MMR"). The Company paid $765,000 and issued 2,500,000 common shares and 1,000,000 common share purchase warrants. On July 9, 2009, the Company acquired the remaining 25% interest for $100,000. MMR retains a 2% NSR. The NSR can be purchased, at the Company's option, for $500,000 in cash or common shares for the first 1% and $1,000,000 in cash or common shares for the second 1%.
On April 16, 2014, the Company signed a Joint Venture Agreement with Malagasy, whereby Malagasy acquired a 75% interest in non‑industrial minerals on the Company's 100% owned Green Giant Property. On May 21, 2015, Malagasy terminated the Joint Venture Agreement, which as a result, the Company reverted to its 100% interest in all minerals on the property.
Sagar Property, Labrador Trough Region, Quebec, Canada
In 2006, the Company purchased from Virginia Mines Inc. ("Virginia") a 100% interest in 382 claims located in northern Quebec, Canada. Virginia retains a 2% NSR on certain claims within the property. Other unrelated parties retain a 1% NSR and a 0.5% NSR on certain claims within the property, of which half of the 1% NSR can be purchased by the company for $200,000 and half of the 0.5% NSR can be purchased by the Company for $100,000.
On February 28, 2014, the Company signed an agreement to sell a 35% interest in the Sagar property to Honeybadger Exploration Inc. ("Honeybadger"), a public company that is a related party by common management. The terms were subsequently amended on July 31, 2014 and May 8, 2015. In order to earn its interest, Honeybadger must complete a payment of $37,500 (CAD$50,000) by December 31, 2015 and must incur exploratoin expenditures $375,000 (CAD$500,000) by December 31, 2016. Honeybadger can earn an additional interest of up to 75% until December 31, 2019 by completing an additional payment of $450,000 (CAD$600,000), incurring an additional $3,000,000 (CAD$4,000,000) of exploration expenditures and issuing to the Company the lesser of (i) 15% of its issued and outstanding shares or (ii) 35,000,000 common shares. After having earned its 75% interest, Honeybadger can acquire the remaining 25% interest by completing a payment of $1,500,000 (CAD$2,000,000) and issuing the lesser of (i) 19.5% of its issued and outstanding common shares or (ii) 60,000,000 common shares (including all previously issued common shares).

BACKGROUND – COMPANY OVERVIEW
Our company is a State of Minnesota, United States of America incorporated entity. Our fiscal year end is June 30. Our principal business is the acquisition and exploration of mineral resources. During fiscal 2008, we incorporated Energizer Resources (Mauritius) Ltd., a Mauritius subsidiary and Energizer Resources Madagascar Sarl, a Madagascar subsidiary. During fiscal 2009, we incorporated THB Venture Ltd., a Mauritius subsidiary to hold the interest in Energizer Resources Minerals Sarl, a Madagascar subsidiary. During fiscal 2012, we incorporated Madagascar‑ERG Joint Venture (Mauritius) Ltd., a Mauritius subsidiary and ERG (Madagascar) Sarl, a Madagascar subsidiary. ERG (Madagascar) Sarl is 100% owned by Madagascar‑ERG Joint Venture (Mauritius) Ltd. which is now 100% owned by Energizer Resources (Mauritius) Ltd. ERG (Madagascar) Sarl holds the Molo Graphite Property. During fiscal 2014, we incorporated 2391938 Ontario Inc., an Ontario, Canada subsidiary.
We have not had any bankruptcy, receivership or similar proceeding since incorporation. Except as described below, there have been no material reclassifications, mergers, consolidations or purchases or sales of any significant amount of assets not in the ordinary course of business since the date of incorporation.
On December 16, 2014, our authorized capital was increased from an aggregate of four hundred fifty million (450,000,000) shares to six hundred fifty million (650,000,000) shares, par value of $0.001 per share, of which 640,000,000 will be deemed common shares and the remaining 10,000,000 will be deemed eligible to be divisible into classes, series and types as designated by our Board of Directors.
Summary of Our Business
We are an exploration stage company engaged in the preparation of a commercially minable graphite deposit in the African country of Madagascar.
We have an additional exploration stage interest in properties located in Madagascar, and in Canada in the Province of Québec.
14
Our executive offices are currently located at 520–141 Adelaide Street West, Toronto, Ontario, Canada M5H 3L5. Our telephone number is (416) 364-4911. We maintain a website at
www.energizerresources.com
(which website is expressly not incorporated by reference into this filing). These offices are leased on a month-to-month basis, and our monthly rental payments are currently approximately $7,500 per month
(approximately $10,000CAD)
.
Further details regarding each of our Madagascar properties, although not incorporated by reference, including the comprehensive geological report prepared in accordance Canada's National Instrument 43-101 -
Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Properties
("NI 43-101") on our Molo Graphite Property and separately our technical report on our Green Giant Property in Madagascar can be found on our Company's website:
www.energizerresources.com
(which website is expressly not incorporated by reference into this filing) or in our Company's Canadian regulatory filings on
www.sedar.com
(which website and content is expressly not incorporated by reference into this filing).
Cautionary Note
Based on the nature of our business, we anticipate incurring operating losses in the foreseeable future. We base this expectation, in part, on the fact that very few mineral properties in the exploration stage ultimately develop into producing and profitable mines. Our future financial results are also uncertain due to a number of factors, some of which are outside our control. These factors include, but are not limited to: (1) our ability to raise additional funding; (2) the market price for graphite, vanadium, gold and uranium; (3) the results of our exploration programs and metallurgy analysis on our mineral properties; (4) the political instability
and environmental regulations that may adversely impact costs and operations
in in Madagascar; and (5) our ability to find joint venture and/or off-take partners for the development of our property interests.
Any future equity financing will cause existing shareholders to experience dilution of their interest in our Company. In the event we are not successful in raising additional financing, we anticipate that we will not be able to proceed with our business plan. In such a case, we may decide to discontinue our current business plan and seek other business opportunities in the resource sector.
During this period, we will need to maintain our periodic filings with the appropriate regulatory authorities and will incur legal and accounting costs. In the event no other such opportunities are available and we cannot raise additional capital to sustain operations, we may be forced to discontinue business. We do not have any specific alternative business opportunities in mind and have not planned for any such contingency.
Due to our lack of operating history and present inability to generate revenues, our auditors have stated their opinion in the notes to our audited financial statements in our annual report on Form 10-K and we have included in Note 1 of this quarterly report that there currently exists doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern.
Summary of Quarterly Milestones and Future Plans
In the coming months our company plans to pursue negotiations in respect of potential off-take agreements with graphite end users and continue to seek project financing alternatives (debt and equity). Discussions in respect of these matters have been ongoing for the past 18 months and are planned to continue during the coming months
although no assurances can be provided regarding the results of these discussions
. The Company is continuing to review optimization strategies in hopes of reducing both the capital and operating costs relating to the Molo Graphite Property.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
We have had no operating revenues from inception on March 1, 2004 to the period ended September 30, 2015. Our activities have been financed from the proceeds of securities subscriptions.
The following are explanations for the material fluctuations/disparities during the period ended September 30, 2015 when compared to the period ended September 30, 2014:
| · | Mineral exploration costs totalled $176,959 (September 30, 2014: $1,703,126), which represents a decrease of $1,526,167 as our company shifts from exploration to development of our Molo project. A total of $137,229 was spent on our Molo project in Madagascar and a total of $39,730 was spent on our Sagar project in Quebec. |
| · | Professional fees totalled $188,717 (September 30, 2014: $231,897) which is a decrease of $43,180. |
| · | General and administrative costs are primarily as a result of operating our Toronto office, certain administrative costs in Madagascar, travel, investor relations and fees associated with our TSX listing. General and administrative costs totalled $90,838 (September 30, 2014: $247,035), which represents a decrease of $156,197. |
| · | Stock-based compensation was nil (September 30, 2014: $404,160). |
| · | Depreciation was $23,599 (September 30, 2014: $11,369). |
| · | Foreign currency translation loss position was $103,318 (September 30, 2014: $49,530). This item arises due to the fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates at the time that transactions occur in a currency other than our functional currency of US dollars and due to the revaluation of balance sheet items from foreign currencies into US dollars as of the date of the balance sheet, namely September 30, 2015. |
| · | The change in the warrant derivative liability was a gain of $633,506 (September 30, 2014: loss of $501,395). This item arises since certain outstanding common share purchase warrants are considered derivative instruments as they were issued in Canadian dollars, a currency other than the Company's functional currency of the US dollar. The estimated fair value of warrants accounted for as liabilities was determined on as of September 30, 2015 and are marked to market at each financial reporting period. The change in fair value of the warrant liability is recorded in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss as a gain or loss and estimated using a Binomial model. |
15
Liquidity, Capital Resources and Foreign Currencies
As at September 30, 2015, we had cash on hand of $736,961 and total working capital of $214,388 excluding the subscription receipts received in advance and the non-cash warrant liability.
We hold a significant portion of its cash reserves in Canadian dollars to satisfy our non-exploration expenditures, which are mainly incurred in Canadian dollars. Due to foreign exchange rate fluctuations, the value of these Canadian dollar reserves can result in translation gains or losses in US dollar terms. If there was to be a significant decline in the Canadian dollar against the US dollar, the US dollar value of that Canadian dollar cash position presented on our balance sheet would also significantly decline. If the US dollar significantly declines relative to the Canadian dollar, our quoted US dollar cash position would also significantly decline. Such foreign exchange declines could cause us to experience losses. In addition to paying expenses in Canadian dollars, we also pay certain expenses in South African Rand, Madagascar Ariary and Euros. Therefore, we are subject to risks relating to movements in those currencies.
There are no assurances that we will be able to achieve further sales of common shares or any other form of additional financing. If we are unable to achieve the financing necessary to continue the plan of operations, then we will not be able to continue our exploration and our venture will fail.
Capital Financings
We have funded our business to date from sales of our securities. Below are our net proceeds from the last two years:
| · | For the year ended June 30, 2014, we raised net proceeds of $9,559,926 through the issuance of 90,523,283 common shares and 39,312,130 common share purchase warrants. |
| · | For the year ended June 30, 2015, we raised net proceeds of $6,663,148 through the issuance of 40,757,067 common shares and 22,626,569 common share purchase warrants. |
16
In addition, subsequent to the quarter ended September 30, 2015, we closed the following private placement:
On October 7, 2015, we closed our non-brokered private placement offering of 14,200,000 units (the "Units") at a price of $0.05CAD per Unit, representing gross proceeds of $710,000CAD. Insiders subscribed for a total of $50,000CAD as part of this Offering. Each Unit is comprised of one (1) common share and one-half (0.5) of one (1) common share purchase warrant (a "Warrant"), each Warrant entitling the holder thereof to acquire one (1) additional common share at a price of US$0.07 per share until October 6, 2017.
We will require additional funding during fiscal 2016, which will likely be in the form of equity financing from the sale of our common shares. However, we cannot provide investors with any assurance that we will be able to raise sufficient funding from the sale of common shares for additional phases of exploration.
Off-balance sheet arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements including arrangements that would affect the liquidity, capital resources, market risk support and credit risk support or other benefits.

ITEM 4. - CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
(a)
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management team, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act), as of the last day of the fiscal period covered by this report, September 30, 2015. 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 SEC'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 this evaluation, our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer concluded that, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2015.
Changes In Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We are currently not involved in any litigation that we believe could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations. There is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation before or by any court, public board, government agency, self-regulatory organization or body pending or, to the knowledge of the executive officers of our Company or any of our subsidiaries, threatened against or affecting our company, our common stock, any of our subsidiaries or of our companies or our subsidiaries' officers or directors in their capacities as such, in which an adverse decision could have a material adverse effect.
ITEM 1A. – RISK FACTORS
Not required under Regulation S-K for "smaller reporting companies" we hereby disclose the following:
Our business is subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, the risks and uncertainties described below and elsewhere within this document. If any of the risks described below, or elsewhere in this report on Form 10-K, or our Company's other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), were to occur, our financial condition and results of operations could suffer and the trading price of our common stock could decline. Additionally, if other risks not presently known to us, or that we do not currently believe to be significant, occur or become significant, our financial condition and results of operations could suffer and the trading price of our common stock could decline.
You should carefully review the risk factors noted below together with all of the additional risk factors and other information contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2015, and in prior reports pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended and the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
SHOULD ANY OF THE FOREGOING RISKS OR UNCERTAINTIES MATERIALIZE, OR SHOULD THE UNDERLYING ASSUMPTIONS OF OUR BUSINESS PROVE INCORRECT, ACTUAL RESULTS MAY DIFFER SIGNIFICANTLY FROM THOSE ANTICIPATED, BELIEVED, ESTIMATED, EXPECTED, INTENDED OR PLANNED.
Our primary exploration efforts are in the African country of Madagascar, where a new government has been in place since early 2014.
Any adverse developments to the political situation in Madagascar could have a material effect on the Company's business, results of operations and financial condition. Democratic elections in Madagascar occurred toward the end of 2013 as planned by the elections calendar jointly established between the UN and the Elections Commission. To date, the Company has not experienced any disruptions or been placed under any constraints in our exploration efforts due to the political situation in Madagascar. Depending on future actions taken by the newly elected government, or any future government, the Company's business operations could be impacted.
The newly elected President was inaugurated on January 25, 2014 and the lower house of Parliament took office in February 2014. A government reshuffle occurred in early 2015, with the naming of a new Prime Minister on January 14, 2015. Ministers composing the new government were named on January 25, 2015. On May 26, 2015, the Parliament voted to impeach the President on the grounds that he had violated the Constitution. The High Constitutional Court invalidated the claim, declaring the accusation unfounded. The President, the Government and the Parliament continue to operate as before.
The Company is actively monitoring the political climate in Madagascar and continues to hold meetings with representatives of the government and the Ministry attached to the Presidency in charge of Mining. The transformation or amendment of exploration and research mining permits within the country continues to be suspended, including the transfer and status of the Molo Graphite Project permit. Additionally, this permit expired in 2011 and has not been renewed despite our efforts to do so. The Company has continued to pay taxes and administrative fees in Madagascar with respect to our mining permits including the permit relating to the Molo Graphite Project (although such permit is not in the Company's name). These payments have been acknowledged and accepted by the Madagascar government. Further, in order to advance the Molo Graphite Project, the current permit will need to be converted into an exploration permit in the name of the Company or one of its subsidiaries. The Company cannot provide any assurance as to the timing of the receipt of the required permits.

ITEM 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES
