Forward-Looking Statements

This quarterly report on form 10-Q filed by Red Metal Resources Ltd. contains forward-looking statements. These are statements regarding financial and operating performance and results and other statements that are not historical facts. The words “expect,” “project,” “estimate,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “forecast,” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Certain important risks could cause results to differ materially from those anticipated by some of the forward-looking statements. Some, but not all, of these risks include, among other things:

 
general economic conditions, because they may affect our ability to raise money
 
our ability to raise enough money to continue our operations
 
changes in regulatory requirements that adversely affect our business
 
changes in the prices for minerals that adversely affect our business
 
political changes in Chile, which could affect our interests there
 
other uncertainties, all of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control

We caution you not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which reflect our management’s view only as of the date of this report. We are not obligated to update these statements or publicly release the results of any revisions to them to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this report or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. You should refer to, and carefully review, the information in future documents we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

General
 
You should read this discussion and analysis in conjunction with our interim unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in this Form 10-Q and the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2011. The inclusion of supplementary analytical and related information may require us to make estimates and assumptions to enable us to fairly present, in all material respects, our analysis of trends and expectations with respect to our results of operations and financial position taken as a whole. Actual results may vary from the estimates and assumptions we make.

Overview
 
Red Metal is a mineral exploration company engaged in locating, and eventually developing, mineral resources in Chile. Our business strategy is to identify, acquire and explore prospective mineral claims with a view to either developing them ourselves or, more likely, finding a joint venture partner with the mining experience and financial means to undertake the development. All of our claims are in the Candelaria IOCG belt in the Chilean Coastal Cordillera.
 
We have no revenue-generating operations and are dependent upon the equity markets for our working capital. Despite the current market volatility,  prices of copper and gold overall are moving in a positive direction and we are optimistic that we can raise equity capital under these market conditions. We completed an offering of 6,723,333 units on April 7, 2011 at $0.30 per unit. Each unit consisted of one share of our common stock and one warrant for the purchase of one share of common stock exercisable at $0.50 per share for two years. We realized net proceeds of $1,862,462 from this offering.

On September 2, 2011 we adopted the Red Metal Resources Ltd. 2011 Equity Incentive Plan and reserved 1,600,000 shares of our common stock for awards under the Plan. On the same day we issued 1,040,000 stock options to directors, officers, employees and consultants who provide services to Red Metal.  The options have an exercise price of $0.50 per share and a term of 2 years.

Consistent with our historical practices, we continue to monitor our costs in Chile by reviewing our mineral claims to determine whether they possess the geological indicators to economically justify the capital to maintain or explore them. Currently, we have three employees in Chile and four part time assistants for our exploration program on the Farellon and Mateo properties.  Besides the property option agreements we have no long-term commitments. Most of our support there—such as, vehicles and  office and equipment—is supplied under short-term contracts. 
 
In September of 2009 we conducted a drilling program on our Farellon property which proved that further drilling of the property is warranted. Micon International Limited, from whom we commissioned a Canadian National Instrument 43-101 technical report summarizing the drilling results, has recommended that we conduct a two-phase drilling program. On June 25, 2011 we started a first phase of the program which was concluded on August 29, 2011. The drill program consisted of 2,234 meters of combined RC and diamond drilling. This phase’s main purpose was to define the structural controls on the mineralization and assist in defining the depth and nature of the sulphide mineralization. The cost of this phase was approximately $650,000.

We also started an initial exploration program on the Mateo property, which includes geophysics, surface mapping, sampling, high resolution ground magnetic survey, and a 1,000-metre RC drill program. We budgeted $300,000 for this work and we have completed approximately half of it.

On March 14, 2011, we entered into a joint venture earn-in agreement on the Perth property with Revonergy Inc. According to the agreement Revonergy Inc. can earn a 35% interest in the Perth property if it spends a minimum $1,450,000 on a three-phase exploration program; and can earn a further 15% interest if it completes a preliminary feasibility study within four years from the signing of the agreement.

The cost and timing of all planned exploration programs are subject to the availability of qualified mining personnel, such as consulting geologists and geo-technicians, and drillers and drilling equipment. If we are unable to find the personnel and equipment that we need when we need them and at the prices that we have estimated today, we might have to revise or postpone our plans.
 
At July 31, 2011, we had a working capital deficit of $166,020 and $480,368 in cash. From the proceeds of the financing we completed on April 7, 2011, we have used $650,000 on the Farellon exploration program and $141,000 on the phase 1 Mateo mapping and geophysics.

During the quarter ended October 31, 2009 we conducted a drilling program on our Farellon property, which increased our mineral exploration costs. Excluding the recovery of written down unproved mineral property costs, our net loss for the third quarter of fiscal 2010 was $202,537. During the quarter ended January 31, 2010, we began preparation of the registration statement that was filed on April 10, 2010, which resulted in a substantial increase in our professional fees. During the quarter ended July 31, 2010, we maintained our investor-related activities on a moderate level and decreased our travel costs and professional fees, which resulted in a decrease in our net loss for the quarter. During the quarters ended October 31, 2010 and January 31, 2011, we invested more in advertising activities and experienced higher professional fees associated with our year-end audit and capital-raising efforts.  During the quarter ended April 30, 2011, aside from our regular day-to-day operations, we completed a private placement offering and began preparation of the registration statement on form S-1 that we filed on May 13, 2011. As a result of these activities, our professional and regulatory fees and other expenses increased. We also increased our mineral exploration activities on the Farellon and Mateo properties, which increased our exploration expenses. During the quarter ended July 31, 2011, we started a drilling program on our Farellon property which resulted in significant increases in our mineral exploration expenses, travel costs and salaries paid to geologists and supporting staff working on the drilling program.

Operating expenses. Our operating expenses increased by $664,562, or 562%, from $118,279 for the three months ended July 31, 2010 to $782,841 for the three months ended July 31, 2011.

On a year-to-date basis, our operating expenses increased by $752,987, or 239%, from $315,130 for the six months ended July 31, 2010 to $1,068,117 for the six months ended July 31, 2011.

The following are our most significant year-to-date changes:

 
During the six months ended July 31, 2011, we started a drilling program on our Farellon property and increased exploration activities on Mateo and Veta Negra properties, which resulted in a $440,584 increase in the mineral exploration expenses from $12,971 for the six months ended July 31, 2010 to $453,555 during the six months ended July 31, 2011.
 
During the second quarter drilling campaign  we hired four assistant geotechnicians and additional office staff to keep up with the increased workload. This resulted in an increase of $24,011 in our salaries, wages & benefits expense from $1,015 during the six months ended July 31, 2010 to $25,026 during the six months ended July 31, 2011.
 
During the six months ended July 31, 2011, our travel and entertainment expenses increased from $28,708 to $83,770. The $55,062 increase was mainly associated with travel time incurred by consulting geologists during the current drilling program. These travel expenditures were budgeted under the exploration campaign.
 
Due to higher accounting and financial advisory requirements we incurred $156,633 in consulting fees during the six months ended July 31, 2011, an increase of $87,638 compared to $68,995 for the six months ended July 31, 2010.
 
During the six months ended July 31, 2011, we completed a private equity financing and filed a registration statement on form S-1, which resulted in an increase of $53,739 in our professional and legal fees.
 
To continue with our operational plans we increased our advertising and promotion costs by $43,477 during the six months ended July 31, 2011.
 
During the six months ended July 31, 2011, we expensed $35,447 in interest on current debt, an increase of $19,555 compared to $15,892 in interest expensed during the six months ended July 31, 2010. This increase was associated with larger outstanding payables, mainly to related parties.
 
During the six months ended July 31, 2011, we wrote down $2,909 in mineral property acquisition costs after we abandoned some of our Mateo exploration claims. During the six months ended July 31, 2010, we did not write down any of our properties.

Net loss. We had a net loss of $1,068,117 for the six months ended July 31, 2011, compared to a net loss of $315,130 for the six months ended July 31, 2010.  The $752,987 increase in net loss was due to an active drilling program on our Farellon property, which resulted in increased exploration, travel and automobile costs, as well as increased salaries, wages and benefits; we also increased our advertising and promotion activities in order to seek additional external financing, which resulted in increased advertising costs, and consulting, professional and regulatory fees.
 
Liquidity
 
going concern
 
The consolidated financial statements included in this form 10-Q have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies that we will continue to realize our assets and discharge our liabilities in the normal course of business. We have not generated any significant revenues from mineral sales since inception, have never paid any dividends and are unlikely to pay dividends or generate significant earnings in the immediate or foreseeable future. Our continuation as a going concern depends upon the continued financial support of our shareholders, our ability to obtain necessary debt or equity financing to continue operations, and the attainment of profitable operations. Our ability to achieve and maintain profitability and positive cash flow depends upon our ability to locate profitable mineral claims, generate revenue from mineral production and control our production costs. Based upon our current plans, we expect to incur operating losses in future periods, which we plan to mitigate by controlling our operating costs and sharing mineral exploration expenses through joint venture agreements.  In April 2011 we completed a financing of units consisting of our common stock and warrants to purchase shares of our common stock.  We raised gross proceeds of $2,017,000.  We expect these funds to be adequate to support our administrative overhead and complete current exploration campaigns on the Farellon and Mateo properties. However, we are continually reviewing potential properties to add to our portfolio. Suitable acquisitions and  project development will require additional financing.  Until we earn enough revenue to support our operations, which may never happen, we will continue to be dependent on loans and sales of our equity or debt securities to continue our development and exploration activities.  If we do not find sources of financing as and when we need them, we may be required to severely curtail, or even to cease, our operations. At July 31, 2011, we had a working capital deficit of $166,020 and accumulated losses of $4,124,936 since inception. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We cannot assure you that we will be able to generate significant revenues in the future. Our consolidated financial statements do not give effect to any adjustments that would be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern and therefore be required to realize our assets and discharge our liabilities in other than the normal course of business and at amounts different from those reflected in our financial statements.

internal and external sources of liquidity
 
To date we have funded our operations by selling our securities and borrowing funds, and, to a minor extent, from mining royalties.

Net cash provided by financing activities. During the six months ended July 31, 2011, we issued 6,290,000 units at $0.30 per unit, for cash proceeds of $1,828,099, net of $58,900 in commissions paid to agents. Each unit consists of one share of our common stock and a two-year warrant exercisable for one share of common stock at $0.50 per share.

We borrowed $11,000 from the father of our president and $70,000 US and $10,000 Cdn (approximately $10,454 US) from our CFO, and repaid $14,956 in loans including accrued interest. We also recognized foreign exchange adjustment of $2,402 on $50,000 Cdn that we borrowed during the year ended January 31, 2011 from our CEO. See Non-cash financing transactions below.

During the six months ended July 30, 2010, we issued 540,000 shares of our common stock for $135,000, and borrowed $50,000 from a company owned by the father of a director.

Non-cash financing transactions. During the six months ended July 31, 2011, as part of the private placement offering completed on April 7, 2011, the Company’s CEO converted loans in the amount of $50,000 into 166,666 units and the Company’s CFO converted loans in the amount of $80,000 into 266,667 units.

During the six months ended July 31, 2010, we did not have any non-cash financing transactions.
 
Net cash used in operating activities. During the six months ended July 31, 2011, we used net cash of $1,240,122 in operating activities. We used $1,068,117 to cover operating costs and increased prepaids and other receivables by $27,911. We decreased accounts payable and accrued liabilities by $47,748 and $3,540, respectively. We also decreased accounts payable to related parties by $99,033. These uses of cash were offset by accrued interest on our notes payable to related parties of $3,318.

During the six months ended July 31, 2010, we used net cash of $143,770 in operating activities. We used $315,130 to cover operating costs and decreased our accrued liabilities and increased prepaid expenses and accounts receivable by $29,882 and $877 respectively. These uses of cash were offset by net increases in accounts payable of $55,191, consisting mainly of legal and audit fees incurred in preparing and filing our form 10 and the amendments to it; accounts payable to related parties of $145,599 for administration, consulting, advertising and promotion, office, automobile, mineral exploration, rental and travel expenses; and accrued interest on our notes payable to a related party of $1,329.  
 
Net cash used in investing activities. During the six months ended July 31, 2011, we spent $156,605 acquiring mineral claims and paying property taxes associated with our mineral claims. We capitalized Chilean value-added tax as part of the unproved mineral claims. This VAT is recoverable from future VAT payable. During the same period we used $19,556 to purchase a pick-up truck that will be used in operations.

During the six months ended July 31, 2010, we spent $14,944 acquiring mineral claims and options to acquire mineral claims.
 
Since inception through July 31, 2011, we have invested $1,183,374 acquiring our mineral claims.

Unproved mineral properties

We have four active properties which we have assembled since the beginning of 2007— the Farellon, Perth, Mateo, and Veta Negra. These properties consist of both mining and exploration claims and are grouped into two district areas – Carrizal Alto area properties and Vallenar area properties.

Active properties

Our active properties as of the date of this filing are set out in Table 5. These properties are accessible by road from Vallenar as illustrated in Figure 1.

Capital resources

Our ability to acquire and explore our Chilean claims is subject to our ability to obtain the necessary funding.  We expect to raise funds through loans from private or affiliated persons and sales of our debt or equity securities. We have no committed sources of capital.  If we are unable to raise funds as and when we need them, we may be required to curtail, or even to cease, our operations.

On April 7, 2011, we completed a private equity financing for net proceeds after commissions, legal and closing fees of $1,862,462. We paid the placement agent a cash commission of $58,900 and issued a warrant to purchase 196,333 shares of common stock.  The securities offered were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements. On May 13, 2011, we filed registration statement on form S-1 to register 4,623,333 shares of our common stock, and 4,819,666 shares of common stock underlying warrants which were a part of the above private equity financing.

Contingencies and commitments
 
We had no contingencies at July 31, 2011.  
 
 
17

 
We have the following long-term contractual obligations and commitments:
 
 
Farellon royalty. We are committed to paying the vendor a royalty equal to 1.5% on the net sales of minerals extracted from the Farellon claims up to a total of $600,000. The royalty payments are due monthly once exploitation begins and are subject to minimum payments of $1,000 per month. We have no obligation to pay the royalty if we do not commence exploitation. As of the date of this report we have not commenced exploitation.
 
Che royalty. We are committed to paying a royalty equal to 1% of the net sales of minerals extracted from the claims to a maximum of $100,000 to the former owner. The royalty payments are due monthly once exploitation begins, and are not subject to minimum payments.
 
Veta Negra option. On June 30, 2011, Minera Farellon agreed to sell us its option to purchase the Veta Negra and Exon claims for $17,500. Under the terms of the option agreement we must pay $80,000 payable in two installments over 18 months to the vendor to exercise the option. If we exercise the option we are committed to paying the vendor a royalty equal to 1.5% of the net sales of minerals extracted from the claims to a total maximum of $500,000.  The royalty can also be bought for $500,000 at any time. The royalty payments are due monthly once exploitation begins, and are not subject to minimum payments.
 
Este option. Under the terms of our option agreement to purchase Este claims , we are committed to paying  100,000,000 Chilean Pesos (approximately $219,000 US) payable in six installments over a period of 30 months to the vendors. If we exercise our option we are committed to paying the vendors a royalty equal to 1.5% of the net sales of minerals extracted from the claims to a maximum of 100,000,000 Chilean Pesos (approximately $219,000 US). The royalty payments are due monthly once exploitation begins, are subject to a monthly maximum payment of 500,000 pesos ($1,100 US) and no minimum payments.

Equity financing

To generate working capital, between January 31, 2009 and September 14, 2011 we issued 12,783,632 shares of our common stock and warrants for the purchase of 7,709,666 shares to raise $3,467,018 under Regulations S and D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933.
 
We anticipate incurring operating losses in the foreseeable future and will require additional equity capital to support our operations and develop our business plan.  If we succeed in completing future equity financing, the issuance of additional shares will result in dilution to our existing shareholders.

Debt financing

On February 22, 2010, we borrowed US $50,000 and issued a demand promissory note payable to the lender for the principal sum together with interest at 6% per annum.  See Related-party transactions below.

On March 2, 2011, we borrowed US $11,000 and issued a demand promissory note payable to the lender for the principal sum together with interest at 8% per annum.  See Related-party transactions below.

Challenges and risks
 
We do not anticipate generating any revenue over the next twelve months. We plan to fund our operations through any combination of equity or debt financing from the sale of our securities, private loans, joint ventures or through the sale of part interest in our mineral properties. Although we have succeeded in raising funds as we have needed them, we cannot assure you that this will continue in the future.  Many things, such as the continued general downturn, worldwide, of the economy or a significant decrease in the price of minerals, could affect the willingness of potential investors to invest in risky ventures such as ours. In addition to the Perth joint venture earn-in agreement, we may consider entering into a joint venture partnership with a more senior resource company to complete a mineral exploration program on other properties in Chile. If we enter into a joint venture arrangement, we would likely have to assign a percentage of our interest in our mineral claims to our joint venture partner in exchange for the funding.

 
18

 
Investments in and expenditures on mineral interests
 
Realization of our investments in mineral properties depends upon our maintaining legal ownership, producing from the properties or gainfully disposing of them.

Title to mineral claims involves risks inherent in the difficulties of determining the validity of claims as well as the potential for problems arising from the ambiguous conveyancing history characteristic of many mineral claims. Our contracts and deeds have been notarized, recorded in the registry of mines and published in the mining bulletin. We review the mining bulletin regularly to discover whether other parties have staked claims over our ground. We have discovered no such claims. To the best of our knowledge, we have taken the steps necessary to ensure that we have good title to our mineral claims.

Foreign exchange
 
We are subject to foreign exchange risk for transactions denominated in foreign currencies.  Foreign currency risk arises from the fluctuation of foreign exchange rates and the degree of volatility of these rates relative to the United States dollar.  We do not believe that we have any material risk due to foreign currency exchange.
 
Trends, events or uncertainties that may impact results of operations or liquidity
 
The economic crisis in the United States and the resulting economic uncertainty and market instability may make it harder for us to raise capital as and when we need it and have made it difficult for us to assess the impact of the crisis on our operations or liquidity and to determine if the prices we will receive on the sale of minerals will exceed the cost of mineral exploitation.  If we are unable to raise cash, we may be required to cease our operations.  Other than as discussed in this quarterly report, we know of no other trends, events or uncertainties that have or are reasonably likely to have a material impact on our short-term or long-term liquidity.

Off-balance sheet arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements and no non-consolidated, special-purpose entities.

On April 1, 2011, we engaged Fladgate Exploration to manage the exploration programs on our properties in Chile. The engagement is expected to last until December 2011 although either party can cancel it with a 30 days’ notice. Under the terms of the engagement Fladgate agreed to supply its professional geo consulting services within the industry standard rates with a $50,000 retainer paid after the signing of the agreement. This agreement was conducted in the normal course of operations on terms no less favorable than terms available to or from independent third parties.

Critical Accounting Estimates
 
An appreciation of our critical accounting judgments is necessary to understand our financial results.  These policies may require that we make difficult and subjective judgments regarding uncertainties, and as a result, such estimates may significantly impact our financial results. The precision of these estimates and the likelihood of future changes depend on a number of underlying variables and a range of possible outcomes. Other than our accounting for the fair value of our unproved mineral properties, accruals for accounting, auditing, legal expenses and mineral property costs, our critical accounting policies do not involve the choice between alternative methods of accounting. We have applied our critical accounting judgments consistently.

Reclassifications
 
Certain comparative amounts in the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year’s presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the consolidated results of operations or financial position for any year presented.
  
 
20

 
Unproved mineral property costs

We have been in the exploration stage since our inception on January 10, 2005 and have not yet generated significant revenue from our operations. We are primarily engaged in acquiring and exploring mining claims. We expense our mineral exploration costs as we incur them. When we have determined that a mineral claim can be economically developed as a result of establishing proven and probable reserves, we capitalize the costs then incurred to develop the claim and will amortize them using the units-of-production method over the estimated life of the probable reserve. If mineral claims are subsequently abandoned or impaired we will charge capitalized costs to operations.
 
Financial instruments
 
Our financial instruments include cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, accrued professional fees and accrued mineral property costs. The fair value of these financial instruments approximates their carrying values due to their short maturities.

Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance

The Company has reviewed recently issued accounting pronouncements and plans to adopt those that are applicable to it. We do not expect the adoption of these pronouncements to have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
