1.

The Company and Operations and Going Concern

Royal Standard Minerals Inc. is a publicly held company focused on identifying suitable assets or businesses to acquire or merge with, with a view to maximizing value for shareholders. The Company was previously engaged in the acquisition, exploration and development of gold and precious metal properties in the United States of America but has disposed of these interests. The Company is continued under the Canada Business Corporations Act and its common shares are quoted in the United States of America on the Over-the-Counter ("OTC") Bulletin Board. Inception has been deemed to be June 26, 1996, the date on which the Company acquired all of the outstanding common shares of Southeastern Resources Inc. ("SRI"), which acquisition was accounted for as a reverse takeover of the Company by SRI. The Company's head office is located at 36 Toronto Street, Suite 1000, Toronto, Ontario, M5C 2C5.

The unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors on September 22, 2014.

These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which assume that the Company will continue in operation for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of operations as they come due. In assessing whether the going concern assumption is appropriate, management takes into account all available information about the future, which is at least, but is not limited to, twelve months from the end of the reporting period. Management is aware, in making its assessment, of material uncertainties related to events or conditions that cast significant doubt upon the entity's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company had a loss of $40,639 during the six months ended July 31, 2014 (six months ended July 31, 2013 - loss of $241,907), has an accumulated deficit of $39,233,766 (January 31, 2014 - $39,193,127). In addition, the Company has a working capital deficiency of $53,608 at July 31, 2014 (January 31, 2014 - working capital deficiency of $13,557).

There is significant doubt regarding the going concern assumption and, accordingly, the ultimate appropriateness of the use of accounting principles applicable to a going concern. These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not reflect the adjustments, to the carrying values or classifications of assets and liabilities or to the reported expenses that would be necessary if the Company were unable to realize its assets and settle its liabilities as a going concern in the normal course of operations for the foreseeable future. These adjustments could be material.

Significant Accounting Policies

Statement of compliance

The Company applies International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and interpretations issued by the IFRS Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”). These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, Interim Financial Reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information required for full annual financial statements required by IFRS as issued by the IASB and interpretations issued by the IFRIC.

Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Statement of compliance (continued)

The policies applied in these unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements are based on IFRS issued and outstanding as of September 22, 2014. The same accounting policies and methods of computation are followed in these unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements as compared with the most recent annual consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended January 31, 2014, except as noted below. Any subsequent changes to IFRS that are given effect in the Company’s annual audited consolidated financial statements for the year ending January 31, 2015 could result in restatement of these unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements.

Adoption of new accounting standards

IAS 32 – Financial Instruments: Presentation (“IAS 32”) was amended by the IASB in December 2011 to clarify certain aspects of the requirements on offsetting. The amendments focus on the criterion that an entity currently has a legally enforceable right to set off the recognized amounts and the criterion that an entity intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. At February 1, 2014, the Company adopted this pronouncement and there was no material impact on the Company's unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements.

New standards not yet adopted and interpretations issued but not yet effective

IFRS 9 – Financial instruments (“IFRS 9”) was issued by the IASB in October 2010 and will replace IAS 39 - Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement (“IAS 39”). IFRS 9 uses a single approach to determine whether a financial asset is measured at amortized cost or fair value, replacing the multiple rules in IAS 39. The approach in IFRS 9 is based on how an entity manages its financial instruments in the context of its business model and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial assets. Most of the requirements in IAS 39 for classification and measurement of financial liabilities were carried forward unchanged to IFRS 9. The new standard also requires a single impairment method to be used, replacing the multiple impairment methods in IAS 39. IFRS 9 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018. Earlier adoption is permitted.

Stock Options

Under the Company's stock option plan (the "Option Plan"), the directors of the Company can grant options to acquire common shares of the Company to directors, employees and others who provide ongoing services to the Company. Exercise prices cannot be less than the closing price of the Company's shares on the trading day preceding the grant date and the maximum term of any option cannot exceed ten years.

The number of common shares under option at any time under the Option Plan or otherwise cannot exceed 5% of the then outstanding common shares of the Company for any optionee. In addition, options granted to insiders of the Company cannot exceed more than 10% of the then outstanding common shares of the Company. Options granted may be subject to vesting restrictions in the discretion of the board.

Option pricing models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected price volatility. Changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, and therefore the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable measure of the fair value of the Company's share purchase options.

The following table reflects the continuity of stock options for the six months ended July 31, 2014 and 2013:

      Number of     Weighted Average  
      Stock Options     Exercise Price

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND GOING CONCERN

The Company has no business operations, except to fund ongoing operations as a reporting issuer and to repay existing creditors and is currently seeking new business opportunities. Success in identifying a suitable new asset or business for the Company is uncertain. Unless the Company can identify a suitable asset or business opportunity and/or obtain additional financing in the near term, there is significant doubt on the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. Without a suitable asset or business opportunity and/or additional financing, the Company will be required to consider the basis on which it will continue as an entity. The Company has no operating revenues and therefore it must utilize current cash and cash equivalents to satisfy outstanding liabilities.

The Company’s financial statements have been prepared on the basis of accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which assume that the Company will continue in operation for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of operations as they come due. In assessing whether the going concern assumption is appropriate, management takes into account all available information about the future, which is at least, but is not limited to, twelve months from the end of the reporting period. Management is aware, in making its assessment, of material uncertainties related to events or conditions that cast significant doubt upon the entity's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company had a loss of $40,639 during the six months ended July 31, 2014 (six months ended July 31, 2013 - loss of $241,907), has an accumulated deficit of $39,233,766 (January 31, 2014 - accumulated deficit of $39,193,127). In addition, the Company has a working capital deficiency of $53,608 at July 31, 2014 (January 31, 2014 - working capital deficiency of $13,557).

The Company’s ability to continue to meet its obligations is uncertain and, as a result, there is significant doubt regarding the going concern assumption and, accordingly, the ultimate appropriateness of the use of accounting principles applicable to a going concern. The Company has no remaining property interests and no business operations, except to fund ongoing operations as a reporting issuer and to repay existing creditors and is currently focused on identifying suitable assets or businesses to acquire or merge with. Success in identifying a suitable new asset or business for the Company is uncertain. Furthermore, the Company has limited working capital to pursue such opportunities. Unless the Company can identify a suitable asset or business opportunity and/or obtain additional financing in the near term, there is significant doubt on the ability of the Company to repay its outstanding liabilities. If the Company is unable to extinguish all of its outstanding liabilities, the going concern assumption will not be valid. The financial statements do not reflect the adjustments to the carrying values or classifications of assets and liabilities or to the reported expenses that would be necessary if the Company were unable to realize its assets and settle its liabilities as a going concern in the normal course of operations for the foreseeable future. These adjustments could be material.

OVERALL PERFORMANCE

The Company’s net loss for the six months ended July 31, 2014 was $40,639 ($0.00 loss per share) and for the six months ended July 31, 2013 was $241,907 ($0.00 loss per share), a decrease in net loss of $201,268. The reduction in net loss relates mainly to a reduction of $103,649 in total exploration and evaluation expenditures as a result of the sale of all property interests in the prior year and a decrease in administrative expenses of $44,914, primarily as a result of lower office and general expenses, professional fees and consulting, wages and salaries as a result of the Company no longer having any active business operations.

FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE

Six months ended July 31, 2014, compared with six months ended July 31, 2013

The Company’s net loss for the six months ended July 31, 2014 was $40,639 ($0.00 loss per share) compared to $241,907 ($0.00 loss per share) for the six months ended July 31, 2013, on no revenue. The decrease of $201,268 was principally the result of:

Foreign currency translation adjustment decreased by $32,049 to $nil for the six months ended July 31, 2014, compared to the same period in 2013. The decrease is the result of the change in functional currency in the prior year resulting in the foreign currency translation adjustment being recorded in comprehensive loss.

 

Office and general expense decreased by $19,910 to $1,545 for the six months ended July 31, 2014, compared to the same period in 2013. The decrease was the result of the Company no longer having any active business operations.

 

Wages and salaries decreased $134,014 to $nil for the six months ended July 31, 2014, compared to the same period in 2013. The decrease was the result of the Company no longer having any operations.

 

Professional fees increased to $36,110 for the six months ended July 31, 2014, compared to a recovery of $105,885 for the same period in 2013. The recovery for 2013 was the result of the reversal of certain accrued legal expenses arising from full and final settlement of certain legal action.

 

Impairment of marketable securities decreased $29,999 to $nil for the six months ended July 31, 2014, compared to the same period in 2013. The decrease was the result of the Company impairing all marketable securities to $nil in the prior year.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company currently has no positive operating cash flow and has to date, financed its activities and its ongoing expenditures primarily through equity transactions such as equity offerings, the exercise of warrants and other financing arrangements. The Company believes that additional financing will be required to fund its operating expenses as it searches for suitable assets and businesses to merge with or acquire.

As at July 31, 2014, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $11,173. Cash used in operating activities was $15,551 for the six months ended July 31, 2014. During the six months ended July 31, 2014, the Company experienced a net increase of $24,500 in non-cash working capital items, which was due to a decrease in sundry receivables and prepaid of $4,216 and increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $20,284. Cash provided by financing activities was $9,917 for the six months ended July 31, 2014 due to advances from a shareholder.

The Company's approach to managing liquidity risk has been to ensure that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet liabilities when due. As at July 31, 2014, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $11,173 compared to $16,807 as at January 31, 2014, to settle current liabilities of $66,118 compared to $35,917 as at January 31, 2014. The Company currently does not have sufficient cash and cash equivalents to settle current liabilities. All of the Company's financial liabilities have contractual maturities of less than 60 days and are subject to normal trade terms. The Company regularly evaluates its cash position in an effort to maintain its liquidity.

There is no assurance that future equity or debt capital will be available to the Company in the amounts or at the times desired, or on terms that are acceptable to the Company, if at all. See “Risk Factors” below.

As at July 31, 2014 and the date of this MD&A, the Company had 920,835,502 common shares issued and outstanding and no stock options outstanding. The Company’s liquidity risk with financial instruments is minimal as any excess cash, when present, is deposited with a Schedule I Canadian bank.

OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

As of the date hereof, management believes the Company does not have any off balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future effect on the results of operations or financial condition of the Company, including, and without limitation, such considerations as liquidity and capital resources.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

IFRS 9 – Financial instruments (“IFRS 9”) was issued by the IASB in October 2010 and will replace IAS 39 - Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement (“IAS 39”). IFRS 9 uses a single approach to determine whether a financial asset is measured at amortized cost or fair value, replacing the multiple rules in IAS 39. The approach in IFRS 9 is based on how an entity manages its financial instruments in the context of its business model and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial assets. Most of the requirements in IAS 39 for classification and measurement of financial liabilities were carried forward unchanged to IFRS 9. The new standard also requires a single impairment method to be used, replacing the multiple impairment methods in IAS 39. IFRS 9 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018. Earlier adoption is permitted.

CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES

IAS 32 – Financial Instruments: Presentation (“IAS 32”) was amended by the IASB in December 2011 to clarify certain aspects of the requirements on offsetting. The amendments focus on the criterion that an entity currently has a legally enforceable right to set off the recognized amounts and the criterion that an entity intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. At February 1, 2014, the Company adopted this pronouncement and there was no material impact on the Company's unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements.

MANAGEMENT OF CAPITAL

The Company manages its capital with the following objectives:

  to ensure sufficient financial flexibility to achieve the ongoing business objectives; and
  to maximize shareholder return through enhancing the share value.

The Company monitors its capital structure and makes adjustments according to market conditions in an effort to meet its objectives given the current outlook of the business and industry in general. The Company may manage its capital structure by issuing new shares, repurchasing outstanding shares, adjusting capital spending, or disposing of assets. The capital structure is reviewed by Management and the Board of Directors on an ongoing basis.

The Company's equity comprises of share capital, reserves, accumulated other comprehensive income and accumulated deficit, which at July 31, 2014 was a deficiency of $53,608 (January 31, 2014 - deficiency of $13,557). Note that included in the unaudited condensed interim consolidated statements of financial position presented is a deficit of $39,233,766 as at July 31, 2014 (January 31, 2014 - $39,193,127).

The Company manages capital through its financial and operational forecasting processes. The Company reviews its working capital and forecasts its future cash flows based on operating expenditures, and other investing and financing activities. Selected information is provided to the Board of Directors of the Company. The Company’s capital management objectives, policies and processes have remained unchanged during the six months ended July 31, 2014. The Company is not subject to external capital requirements.

FINANCIAL RISK FACTORS

The Company's financial instruments, consisting of cash and cash equivalents, sundry receivables and accounts payable and accrued liabilities, approximate fair values due to the relatively short-term maturities of the instruments. It is management’s opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest, currency or credit risks arising from these financial instruments.

Risk management is carried out by the Company's management team with guidance from the Audit Committee under policies approved by the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors also provides regular guidance for overall risk management.

Liquidity risk

The Company's approach to managing liquidity risk is to ensure that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet liabilities when due. As at July 31, 2014, the Company had a cash balance of $11,173 (January 31, 2014 - $16,807) to settle current liabilities of $66,118 (January 31, 2014 - $35,917). All of the Company's financial liabilities have contractual maturities of less than 60 days and are subject to normal trade terms.

It is expected the Company will be funded by shareholder loans or private placements from related parties until the Company finds an asset or business to incorporate into the Company.

RISK FACTORS

At the present time, the Company does not hold any interest in an active operating business or asset. The Company's viability and potential success lie in its ability to develop, exploit and generate revenue from a future asset or business acquisition. Revenues, profitability and cash flow from any future asset or business acquisition involving the Company are difficult to predict and will be influenced by factors unknown to management at the present time. The Company has limited financial resources and there is no assurance that it will be able to obtain adequate financing in the future or that the terms of any such financing will be favourable. Failure to obtain such additional financing could result in delay or indefinite postponement of future business activities of the Company with the possible dilution or loss of such business activities.

Additionally, directors and officers of the Company may also serve as directors and/or officers of other public companies from time to time.

Consequently, such directors and officers will be dividing their time between their duties to the Company and their duties to their other reporting issuers.

DISCLOSURE OF INTERNAL CONTROLS

Management has established processes to provide it with sufficient knowledge to support representations that it has exercised reasonable diligence to ensure that (i) the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not contain any untrue statement of material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated or that is necessary to make a statement not misleading in light of the circumstances under which it is made, as of the date of and for the periods presented by the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements, and (ii) the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements fairly present in all material respects the financial condition, results of operations and cash flow of the Company, as of the date of and for the periods presented.

In contrast to the certificate required for non-venture issuers under National Instrument 52-109, Certification of Disclosure in Issuers’ Annual and Interim Filings (“NI 52-109”), the Venture Issuer Basic Certificate filed by the Company does not include representations relating to the establishment and maintenance of disclosure controls and procedures (“DC&P”) and internal control over financial reporting (“ICFR”), as defined in NI 52-109. In particular, the certifying officers filing such certificate are not making any representations relating to the establishment and maintenance of:

  (i)

controls and other procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the issuer in its annual filings, interim filings or other reports filed or submitted under securities legislation is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in securities legislation; and

The Company’s certifying officers are responsible for ensuring that processes are in place to provide them with sufficient knowledge to support the representations they are making in such certificate. Investors should be aware that inherent limitations on the ability of certifying officers of a venture issuer to design and implement on a cost effective basis DC&P and ICFR as defined in NI 52-109 may result in additional risks to the quality, reliability, transparency and timeliness of interim and annual filings and other reports provided under securities legislation.
