DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS, HISTORY AND SUMMARY OF
SIGNIFICANT POLICIES
|
Basis of Presentation
The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Royal
Mines and Minerals Corps (the Company) fiscal year-end is April 30.
Description of Business
The
Company is considered an exploration stage company. The Company's primary
objectives are to 1) commercially extract and refine precious metals from its
own and others leachable assets, 2) use its lixiviation processes to convert
specific ore bodies and fly ash landfills/monofills into valuable assets, and 3)
joint venture, acquire and develop mining projects in North America. The Company
has not yet realized significant revenues from its primary objectives.
History
The Company was
incorporated on December 14, 2005 under the laws of the State of Nevada. On June
13, 2007, the Company incorporated a wholly-owned subsidiary, Royal Mines
Acquisition Corp., in the state of Nevada.
On October 5, 2007, Centrus Ventures
Inc. (Centrus) completed the acquisition of Royal Mines Inc. (Royal Mines).
The acquisition of Royal Mines was completed by way of a triangular merger
pursuant to the provisions of the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated September
24, 2007 (the First Merger Agreement) among Centrus, Royal Mines Acquisition
Corp. (Centrus Sub), a wholly owned subsidiary of Centrus, Royal Mines and
Kevin B. Epp, the former sole executive officer and director of Centrus. On
October 5, 2007, under the terms of the First Merger Agreement, Royal Mines was
merged with and into Centrus Sub, with Centrus Sub continuing as the surviving
corporation (the First Merger).
On October 6, 2007, a second merger was
completed pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated October 6, 2007 (the
Second Merger Agreement) between Centrus and its wholly owned subsidiary,
Centrus Sub, whereby Centrus Sub was merged with and into Centrus, with Centrus
continuing as the surviving corporation (the Second Merger). As part of the
Second Merger, Centrus changed its name from Centrus Ventures Inc. to Royal
Mines And Minerals Corp.(the Company). Other than the name change, no
amendments were made to the Articles of Incorporation.
Under the terms and conditions of the
First Merger Agreement, each share of Royal Mines common stock issued and
outstanding immediately prior to the completion of the First Merger was
converted into one share of Centrus common stock. As a result, a total of
32,183,326 shares of Centrus common stock were issued to former stockholders of
Royal Mines. In addition, Mr. Epp surrendered 23,500,000 shares of Centrus
common stock for cancellation in consideration of payment by Centrus of $0.001
per share for an aggregate consideration of $23,500. As a result, upon
completion of the First Merger, the former stockholders of Royal Mines owned
approximately 69.7% of the issued and outstanding common stock.
As such, Royal Mines is deemed to be
the acquiring enterprise for financial reporting purposes. All acquired assets
and liabilities of Centrus were recorded at fair value on the date of the
acquisition, as required by the purchase method of accounting, and the tangible
net liabilities were debited against equity of the Company. There are no
continuing operations of Centrus from the date of acquisition.
Going Concern
- As of April 30,
2014, the Company has incurred cumulative net losses of $15,794,055 from
operations since inception, accumulated other comprehensive loss of $500,000,
and has negative working capital of $1,090,341. The Company is still in the
exploration stage and has not fully commenced its mining and minerals processing
operations, raising substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going
concern.

ROYAL MINES AND MINERALS CORP.
(An Exploration Stage
Company)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
APRIL 30, 2014 AND 2013
(AUDITED)
The ability of the Company to continue
as a going concern is dependent on the Company raising additional sources of
capital and the successful execution of the Companys objectives. The Company
will seek additional sources of capital through the issuance of debt or equity
financing, but there can be no assurance the Company will be successful in
accomplishing its objectives. The financial statements do not include any
adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of assets and
liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as
a going concern.
Use of Estimates
- The
preparation of 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 disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during
the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
- The
Company considers all investments with an original maturity of three months or
less to be a cash equivalent.
Fair Value
-
ASC 825,
Financial Instruments requires an entity to maximize the use of observable
inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.
ASC 825 establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent,
objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A
financial instruments categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based
upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value
measurement. ASC 825 prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used
to measure fair value:
Level 1
Level 1 applies to assets or
liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical
assets or liabilities.
Level 2
Level 2 applies to assets or
liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are
observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets
or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or
liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less
active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are
observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable
market data of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
Level 3
Level 3 applies to assets or
liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology
that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or
liabilities.
Pursuant to ASC 825, the fair value of
cash is determined based on Level 1 inputs, which consist of quoted prices in
active markets for identical assets. The Company's financial instruments consist
of cash, prepaid expenses, other assets, accounts payable, accrued liabilities,
and loans payable. The carrying amount of these financial instruments
approximates fair value due to either length of maturity or interest rates that
approximate prevailing market rates unless otherwise disclosed in these
financial statements.

The Company did not have any
investments in marketable securities at April 30, 2013.
Property and Equipment
-
Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation.
Depreciation is provided principally on the straight-line method over the
estimated useful lives of the assets, which are generally 3 to 10 years. The
cost of repairs and maintenance is charged to expense as incurred. Expenditures
for property betterments and renewals are capitalized. Upon sale or other
disposition of a depreciable asset, cost and accumulated depreciation are
removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reflected in the statement of
operations.
The Company periodically evaluates
whether events and circumstances have occurred that may warrant revision of the
estimated useful life of fixed assets or whether the remaining balance of fixed
assets should be evaluated for possible impairment. The Company uses an estimate
of the related undiscounted cash flows over the remaining life of the fixed
assets in measuring their recoverability.
Exploration Costs
Exploration
costs incurred in locating areas of potential mineralization or evaluating
properties or working interests with specific areas of potential mineralization
are expensed as incurred. Development costs of proven mining properties not yet
producing are capitalized at cost and classified as capitalized exploration
costs under property, plant and equipment. Property holding costs are charged to
operations during the period if no significant exploration or development
activities are being conducted on the related properties. Upon commencement of
production, capitalized exploration and development costs would be amortized
based on the estimated proven and probable reserves benefited. Properties
determined to be impaired or that are abandoned are written-down to the
estimated fair value. Carrying values do not necessarily reflect present or
future values.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company reviews and evaluates long-lived assets for impairment when events
or changes in circumstances indicate the related carrying amounts may not be
recoverable. The assets are subject to impairment consideration under ASC
360-10-35-17,
Measurement of an Impairment Loss
, if events or
circumstances indicate that their carrying amount might not be recoverable.
Various factors could impact our
ability to achieve forecasted production schedules. Additionally, commodity
prices, capital expenditure requirements and reclamation costs could differ from
the assumptions the Company may use in cash flow models used to assess
impairment. The ability to achieve the estimated quantities of recoverable
minerals from exploration stage mineral interests involves further risks in
addition to those factors applicable to mineral interests where proven and
probable reserves have been identified, due to the lower level of confidence
that the identified mineralized material can ultimately be mined economically.
The Company did not pay the renewal fee on the 20 acre claim and the BLM claims
due in August 2012 and allowed those claims to lapse. The Company recognized an
impairment of mineral properties expense of $63,400 for the year ended April 30,
2013.

ROYAL MINES AND MINERALS CORP.
(An Exploration Stage
Company)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
APRIL 30, 2014 AND 2013
(AUDITED)
Revenue Recognition
The
Company recognizes revenues and the related costs when persuasive evidence of an
arrangement exists, delivery and acceptance has occurred or service has been
rendered, the price is fixed or determinable, and collection of the resulting
receivable is reasonably assured. Revenue from licensing our technology is
recognized over the term of the license agreement. Costs and expenses are
recognized during the period in which they are incurred.
Other Current Assets
- Other
current assets are comprised of other receivables, which do not bear interest
and are recorded at cost. The Company extends credit to its consultants, which
receivables can be offset against commissions payable to the respective
consultants.
The allowance for doubtful accounts
represents the Companys best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses
in the Companys existing other receivables. The Company determines the
allowance based on specific customer information, historical write-off
experience and current industry and economic data. Account balances are charged
off against the allowance when the Company believes it is probable the
receivable will not be recovered. Management believes that there are no
concentrations of credit risk for which an allowance has not been established.
Although management believes that the allowance is adequate, it is possible that
the estimated amount of cash collections with respect to accounts receivable
could change. As of April 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company has recorded an
allowance for doubtful account of $14,041and $14,041, respectively.
Research and Development
- All
research and development expenditures are expensed as incurred.
Earnings (Loss) Per Share
- The
Company follows ASC 260,
Earnings Per Share,
and ASC 480,
Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity,
which establish standards for the
computation, presentation and disclosure requirements for basic and diluted
earnings per share for entities with publicly held common shares and potential
common stock issuances. Basic earnings (loss) per share are computed by dividing
net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. In
computing diluted earnings per share, the weighted average number of shares
outstanding is adjusted to reflect the effect of potentially dilutive
securities, such as stock options and warrants. Common stock equivalent shares
are excluded from the computation if their effect is antidilutive. Common stock
equivalents, which include stock options and warrants to purchase common stock,
on April 30, 2014 and 2013 that were not included in the computation of diluted
earnings per share because the effect would be antidilutive were 154,985,129 and
109,195,129, respectively.
Income Taxes
- The Company
accounts for its income taxes in accordance with ASC 740,
Income Taxes
,
which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for future tax
consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement
carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax
bases and tax credit carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are
measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the
years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or
settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax
rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment
date.

constitute a business as defined in ASC 805-10-55-4,

Stock-Based Compensation
The
Company accounts for share based payments in accordance with ASC 718,
Compensation - Stock Compensation
, which requires all share-based
payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be
recognized in the financial statements based on the grant date fair value of the
award. In accordance with ASC 718-10-30-9,
Measurement Objective Fair Value
at Grant Date
, the Company estimates the fair value of the award using a
valuation technique. For this purpose, the Company uses the Black-Scholes option
pricing model. The Company believes this model provides the best estimate of
fair value due to its ability to incorporate inputs that change over time, such
as volatility and interest rates, and to allow for actual exercise behavior of
option holders. Compensation cost is recognized over the requisite service
period which is generally equal to the vesting period. Upon exercise, shares
issued will be newly issued shares from authorized common stock.
ASC 505, "Compensation-Stock
Compensation", establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in
which an entity exchanges its equity instruments to non-employees for goods or
services. Under this transition method, stock compensation expense includes
compensation expense for all stock-based compensation awards granted on or after
January 1, 2006, based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with
the provisions of ASC 505.
Recent Accounting Standards
From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial
Accounting Standards Board (FASB) that are adopted by the Company as of the
specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, management believes that
the impact of recently issued standards did not or will not have a material
impact on the Companys financial position, results of operations, or cash flows
upon adoption.
In January 2014, the Financial
Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU")
2014-05,
Service Concession Arrangements (Topic 853), a consensus of the FASB
Emerging Issues Task Force
. The objective of the update is to specify that
an operating entity should not account for a service concession arrangement
within the scope of this update as a lease in accordance with Topic 840, Leases.
It is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2014. The Company
does not expect ASU 2014-05 to have a material effect on its financial
condition, results of operation, or cash flows.
In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU
2013-11
Income Taxes (Topic 740), Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit
When a Net Operating loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit
Carryforward Exists.
The standard provides updated guidance on the financial
statement presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss
carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. It
becomes effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2013, and the
impact to the financial statements will not be material.

SCOTTSDALE FACILITY
AGREEMENT

On April 16, 2014, the Company entered
into an agreement with GJS Capital Corp. (the "Creditor"). Under the terms of
the Agreement, the Creditor has agreed to loan the Company $150,000 (the
Principal), which has already been advanced. The loan bears interest at a rate
of 6% per annum, compounded annually and has a maturity date of August 31, 2014
(the Maturity Date").
At any time prior to the Maturity Date,
the Creditor may elect to receive units (each a Unit") in exchange for any
portion of the Principal outstanding on the basis of one Unit for each $0.05 of
indebtedness converted (the Unit Conversion Option"). Each Unit consists of one
share of our common stock and one warrant to purchase an additional share of our
common stock at a price of $0.10 per share for a period of two years from the
date of issuance. If the Creditor exercises the Unit Conversion Option, any
interest that accrued on the portion of the Principal that was converted shall
be forgiven.
If the Creditor exercises the Unit
Conversion Option, the Creditor will receive a net profits interest (the Net
Profits Interest) an any future profits received by Company that are derived
from our process for the recovery of precious metals from coal ash and other
materials (the Technology) at a basis of 1% of our net profits for every $10,000 of converted Principal.
The Net Profits Interest will terminate when the Creditor receives eight times
the amount of converted Principal.

director nominated by the Creditor is appointed to the Companys Board of
Directors. If the Creditor does nominate such director, the Company will be
allowed to nominate and appoint an additional director to the Companys Board of
Directors.
The Creditor has agreed to form a joint
venture with the Company for the purpose of constructing and operating a
processing plant at the Scottsdale facility, an existing facility, utilizing the
Companys licensed Technology. Under the agreement, the Creditor and the Company
shall form a limited liability company (Newco) to operate the Joint Venture,
and ownership of Newco would be split equally between the Creditor and the
Company. In addition, the Creditor would advance $250,000 plus up to 15% for
contingencies, a total of $287,500, to Newco to fund the initial construction
and operation costs of the Newco. These advances are not expected to be paid
back to the Creditor.

Scottsdale facility in the prior years using the same technology licensed by the
Company. As of April 30, 2014 and through the filing date of the Form 10-K, the
Company and the Creditor have not established a limited liability corporation in
accordance with the agreement. The equipment used in the Scottsdale facility,
lease agreements for the Scottsdale facility, and other supplies purchased and
costs incurred by the Scottsdale facility were incurred by the Company and are
legal obligation of the Company. As of April 30, 2014, no bank account has been
established for the joint venture and as a result the Company has paid all
expenses related to the Scottsdale facility directly via the Companys bank

total of $163,654. As of April 30, 2014 and through the date of the filing date
of the Form 10-K, the Company has not agreed to contribute any of the assets
related to the Scottsdale facility to the joint venture. Based upon the
aforementioned, the Company has accounted for the funds received totaling
$163,654 as contributed capital since in substance, the Creditor has secured
future revenue of the Scottsdale facility operations with such funds.
As of April 30, 2014 and April 30,

Marketable securities are held for an
indefinite period of time and thus are classified as available-for-sale
securities. Realized investment gains and losses are included in the statement
of operations, as are provisions for other than temporary declines in the market
value of available-for-sale securities. Unrealized gains and unrealized losses
deemed to be temporary are excluded from earnings (losses), net of applicable
taxes, as a component of other comprehensive income. Factors considered in
judging whether an impairment is other than temporary include the financial
condition, business prospects and creditworthiness of the issuer, the length of
time that fair value has been less than cost, the relative amount of decline,
and the Companys ability and intent to hold the investment until the fair value
recovers.
As of April 30, 2014, the Company has
recorded an accumulated other comprehensive loss of $500,000 regarding its
investment in marketable securities. Based on managements evaluation of the
circumstances, management believes that the decline in fair value below the cost
of certain of the Companys marketable securities is temporary.

FASB ASC 740 requires the use of an
asset and liability approach in accounting for income taxes. Deferred tax assets
and liabilities are recorded based on the differences between the financial
statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities and the tax rates in effect
currently.
FASB ASC 740 requires the reduction of
deferred tax assets by a valuation allowance, if, based on the weight of
available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred
tax assets will not be realized. In the Companys opinion, it is uncertain
whether they will generate sufficient taxable income in the future to fully
utilize the net deferred tax asset. Accordingly, a valuation allowance equal to
the deferred tax asset has been recorded. The total deferred tax asset is
