WESTMOUNTAIN INDEX ADVISOR, INC.

A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1. BUSINESS

WestMountain Index Advisor, Inc., “WMTN” or the “Company”) is an exploration and development company that explores, acquires, and develops advanced stage mineral properties. The Company currently has rights to a joint venture interest in a high-grade gold system in the resource definition phase with 419,604 ounces of indicated and inferred gold based on the NI 43-101 Technical Report completed by Gustavson Associates on February 19, 2013. This high-grade gold system in total offers potential of greater than 1,000,000 ounces. WMTN’s wholly owned subsidiary, Terra Gold Corporation (“TGC”) is a joint venture partner with Raven Gold Alaska, Inc. (“Raven”) on the high-grade gold system called the TMC project. The TMC project consists of 344 Alaska state mining claims covering 223 square kilometers. All government permits and reclamation plans for continued exploration through 2014 were renewed in 2010. On February 19, 2013, WMTN signed a Letter of Intent to acquire Raven’s remaining interest in the joint venture for $6.0 million in cash and 750,000 shares of common stock, a transaction that would give WMTN 100% ownership of the TMC project at closing.

The TMC project is located in the mining friendly Tintina gold belt.

The Company has budgeted expenditures for the next twelve months of approximately $10,300,000, depending on additional financing, for general and administrative expenses and exploration and development, including $5,000,000 to acquire the TMC project, to implement the business plan as described below. For further details see “Liquidity and Capital Resources” below. This will allow the Company to achieve 51% earn in under the JV Agreement, in the event we are unable to complete the acquisition of Raven’s interest in the TMC project.

The Company will have to raise substantial additional capital in order to fully implement the business plan. If economic reserves of gold and/or other minerals are proven, additional capital will be needed to actually develop and mine those reserves. As discussed under “Liquidity and Capital Resources” below, the Company must expend an additional $4.7 million over the next two years to achieve 80% earn in on the TMC project, in the event we are unable to complete the acquisition of Raven’s interest in the TMC. Even if economic reserves are found, if the Company is unable to raise this capital, we will not be able to complete our earn in on this project.

The Company’s principal source of liquidity for the next several years will need to be the continued raising of capital through the issuance of equity or debt. WMTN plans to raise funds for each step of the project and as each step is successfully completed, raise the capital for the next phase. WMTN believes this will reduce the cost of capital as compared to trying to raise all the anticipated capital at once up front. However, since WMTN’s ability to raise additional capital will be affected by many factors, most of which are not within our control (see “Risk Factors”), no assurance can be given that WMTN will in fact be able to raise the additional capital as it is needed.

The Company may choose to scale back operations to operate at break-even with a smaller level of business activity, while adjusting overhead depending on the availability of additional financing. In addition, the Company expects that it will need to raise additional funds if the Company decides to pursue more rapid expansion, appropriate responses to competitive pressures, or the acquisition of complementary businesses or technologies, or if it must respond to unanticipated events that require it to make additional investments. The Company cannot assure that additional financing will be available when needed on favorable terms, or at all.

The Company’s accountants have expressed substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern as a result of its history of net loss. The Company’s ability to achieve and maintain profitability and positive cash flow is dependent upon our ability to successfully execute the plans to pursue the TMC project as described in this Form 10-Q. The outcome of these matters cannot be predicted at this time. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the amounts and classifications of assets and liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue its business.

UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of WMTN and its subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The financial statements for the periods January 31, 2013 and 2012 are unaudited and include all adjustments necessary to a fair statement of the results of operations for the periods then ended. All such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. The results of the Company’s operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results of the Company’s operations for a full fiscal year. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2012 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on January 18, 2013.

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES

Accounting Method

The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared using the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Principles of Consolidation

These consolidated financial statements include the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Foreign Currency Translation

The consolidated financial statements are presented in US dollars.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company classifies highly liquid temporary investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased as cash equivalents. The Company maintains cash balances at various financial institutions. Balances at US banks are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000. Beginning December 31, 2010 and through December 31, 2013, all noninterest-bearing transaction accounts are fully insured, regardless of the balance of the account, at all FDIC-insured institutions. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant risk for cash on deposit. As of January 31, 2013, the Company had no uninsured cash amounts.

Prepaid expenses

Prepaid expenses were $9,243 and $7,017 as of January 31, 2013 and October 31, 2012, respectively.

Equipment

Equipment consists of machinery, furniture and fixtures and software, which are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is computed by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives or lease period of the relevant asset, generally 3 -5 years.

Mineral Properties

Costs of acquiring mineral properties are capitalized by project area upon purchase of the associated claims. Costs to maintain the mineral rights and leases are expensed as incurred. When a property reaches the production stage, the related capitalized costs will be amortized, using the units of production method on the basis of periodic estimates of ore reserves.

Mineral properties are periodically assessed for impairment of value and any diminution in value.

The Company has access to the camp by airplane. There is no road access from camp to the project area where drilling and bulk sampling mining occurs. It is approximately 1 1/2 miles from camp to the project area. Power generation is by diesel generator at the camp. Fuel is brought in for the generators by a cargo plane to the airstrip.

Long-Lived Assets

The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment when changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Long-lived assets under certain circumstances are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value. Assets to be disposed of and assets not expected to provide any future service potential to the Company are recorded at the lower of carrying amount or fair value (less the projected cost associated with selling the asset). To the extent carrying values exceed fair values, an impairment loss is recognized in operating results. As of January 31, 2013, there are no impairments recognized.

Alaska Reclamation and Remediation Liabilities

The Company operates in Alaska. The State of Alaska Department of Natural Resources requires a pool of funds from all permittees with exploration and mining projects to cover reclamation. There is a $750 per acre disturbance reclamation bond that is required for disturbance of 5 acres or more and/or removal of more the 50,000 cubic yards of material. The Company may exceed the minimum requirements in 2013 and may to be required to file a reclamation bond.

The Company expects to record reclamation bond as a liability in the period in which the Company is required to pay a reclamation bond. A corresponding asset is also recorded and depreciated over the life of the asset. After the initial measurement of the asset retirement obligation, the liability will be adjusted at the end of each reporting period to reflect changes in reclamation bond.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy contains three levels as follows:

Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices that are available in active markets for the identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date.

Level 2 - Other observable inputs available at the measurement date, other than quoted prices included in Level 1, either directly or indirectly, including:

	●	Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;
	●	Quoted prices for identical or similar assets in nonactive markets;
	●	Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability; and
	●	Inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by other observable market data.

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that cannot be corroborated by observable market data and reflect the use of significant management judgment. These values are generally determined using pricing models for which the assumptions utilize management’s estimates of market participant assumptions.

Assets and Liabilities that are Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis. The Company accounts for fair value measurements in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measurement and expands disclosure about fair value measurement. The fair value hierarchy requires the use of observable market data when available. In instances in which the inputs used to measure fair value fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the fair value measurement has been determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular item to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, including the consideration of inputs specific to the asset or liability.

Mineral Exploration and Development Costs

All exploration expenditures are expensed as incurred. Significant property acquisition payments for active exploration properties are capitalized. If no minable ore body is discovered, previously capitalized costs are expensed in the period the property is abandoned. Expenditures to develop new mines, to define further mineralization in existing ore bodies, and to expand the capacity of operating mines, are capitalized and amortized on a unit of production basis over proven and probable reserves.

Should a property be abandoned, its capitalized costs are charged to operations. The Company charges to operations the allocable portion of capitalized costs attributable to properties abandoned. Capitalized costs are allocated to properties sold based on the proportion of claims sold to the claims remaining within the project area.

Provision for Income Taxes

Income taxes are provided based upon the liability method of accounting. Under this approach, deferred income taxes are recorded to reflect the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each year-end. A valuation allowance is recorded against deferred tax assets if management does not believe the Company has met the “more likely than not” standard.

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amount used for income tax purposes.

Net Loss Per Share

Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the periods presented. Diluted net loss per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that would then share in the income of the Company, subject to anti-dilution limitations. As of January 31, 2013, the Company had warrants for the purchase of 13,479,058 common shares and 2,108,248 common shares related promissory notes to which were considered but were not included in the computation of loss per share at January 31, 2013 because they would have been anti-dilutive. In addition, the Company has 250,000 shares of common stock to be issued in 2014 to International Tower Hill Ltd. which could potentially dilute future earnings per share.

As of January 31, 2012, the Company had warrants for the purchase of 6,707,715 common shares which were considered but were not included in the computation of loss per share at January 31, 2012 because they would have been anti-dilutive. In addition, the Company had 250,000 shares of common stock to be issued in both 2012 and 2014 to International Tower Hill Ltd. which could potentially dilute future earnings per share.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States 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 revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

A variety of proposed or otherwise potential accounting standards are currently under study by standard setting organizations and various regulatory agencies. Due to the tentative and preliminary nature of those proposed standards, management has not determined whether implementation of such proposed standards would be material to the consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 3. AGREEMENTS

Exploration, Development and Mine Operating Agreements

Joint Venture Agreement

On September 15, 2010, TMC and its wholly owned subsidiary, TGC and Raven signed an Exploration, Development and Mine Operating Agreement (“JV Agreement”). TMC agreed to have 250,000 shares of WMTN common stock issued to Raven no later than one year after the closing of the acquisition of TMC by WMTN and an additional 250,000 shares of WMTN common stock issued on or before each of December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2012. The $50,000 due with the signing of the Letter of Intent in February 2010 was paid September 17, 2010. TMC has spent $4,800,000 of project expenses through March 5, 2013 as defined by the JV Agreement.

The JV Agreement has a term of twenty years, which can continue longer as long as products are produced on a continuous basis and thereafter until all materials, equipment and infrastructure are salvaged and disposed of, environmental compliance is completed and accepted and the parties have completed a final accounting. The JV Agreement defines terms and conditions where TMC and TGC earns a 51% interest with the following payments and stock issuances-

Pay the following options payments:

	●	Payment of $10,000 with the signing of the Letter of Intent in February 2010 (paid September 2010).
	●	Payment of $40,000 with the signing of the JV Agreement (paid September 2010).
	●	Payment of $100,000 on or before December 31, 2011 (paid in December 2011).
	●	Payment of $150,000 on or before December 31, 2012 (paid in January 2013).

Provide the following project funding-

	●	Payment of $1 million in project expenses on or before December 31, 2011, including $100,000 to Raven for camp equipment (paid).
	●	Payment of $2.5 million in additional project expenses on or before December 31, 2012, including $100,000 to Raven for camp equipment (paid in January 2013).
	●	Payment of $2.5 million in additional project expenses on or before December 31, 2013.

Issue the following common stock, which is subject to a two year trading restriction, upon the completion of the acquisition of TMC by WMTN:

	●	Issue 250,000 shares of WMTN common stock no later than one year after the closing of the acquisition of TMC (issued).
	●	Issue 250,000 shares of WMTN common stock on or before December 31, 2011 (issued), and December 31, 2012 (issued).

TMC and TGC then can increase their interest to 80% in the project with the following payments and stock issuances:

	●	Payment of $150,000 on or before December 31, 2013.
	●	Payment of $3.05 million in additional project expenses on or before December 31, 2014.
	●	Issue 250,000 shares of WMTN common stock on or before December 31, 2014.

On February 19, 2013, the Company signed a Letter of Intent (“LOI”) to Raven’s remaining interest in the TMC Project in Alaska and terminate the JV Agreement. Upon closing, this transaction will give the Company 100% ownership in the project.

Under terms of the proposed transaction, which is subject to customary closing conditions, WMTN will acquire Raven’s interest for $6.0 million in cash and 750,000 shares of restricted common stock. The closing will occur in stages, with WMTN making the following milestone payments:

	●	April 15, 2013: $3.0 million in cash and 750,000 shares of common stock bearing a two-year hold period.
	●	July 15, 2013: $2.0 million in cash.
	●	April 15, 2014: $1.0 million in cash.
	●	Going forward, Raven will be paid sliding scale NSR royalty of 0.5% to 3% on precious metals (3% above $1,500 gold price) and a flat 2% NSR royalty on all base metals. Also as part of the transaction, WMTN will complete its vesting requirements with International Tower Hill Mines Ltd. with a payment of $150,000 in cash and 250,000 shares of West Mountain common stock.

If the acquisition of Raven’s interest in the joint venture is not completed, the failure to operate in accordance with the JV Agreement could result in the Company’s interest in the JV being revoked or the JV Agreement being terminated.

All costs related to the JV Agreement have been recorded as exploration expenses. The Company has not earned its 51% interest in the joint venture and does not control the joint venture therefore, the joint venture is not consolidated in the Company’s financial statements. At such time as the Company earns it’s 51% or gains control of the joint venture (or completes the acquisition of Raven’s interest in the joint venture), it will consolidate the operations of the joint venture.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Forward-looking statements in this report reflect the good-faith judgment of our management and the statements are based on facts and factors as we currently know them. Forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties and actual results and outcomes may differ materially from the results and outcomes discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences in results and outcomes include, but are not limited to, those discussed below as well as those discussed elsewhere in this report (including in Part II, Item 1A (Risk Factors)). Readers are urged not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements because they speak only as of the date of this report. We undertake no obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statements in order to reflect any event or circumstance that may arise after the date of this report.

GENERAL DEVELOPMENT OF BUSINESS

THE COMPANY AND OUR BUSINESS

The TMC project is located in the mining friendly Tintina gold belt. Many of the top five gold producers in the World are investing billions in this region, which has estimated reserves of 180 million ounces.

We have budgeted expenditures for the next twelve months of approximately $10,300,000, depending on additional financing, for general and administrative expenses and exploration and development, including $5,000,000 to acquire the TMC project, to implement the business plan as described below. For further details see “Liquidity and Capital Resources” below. This will allow us to achieve 51% earn in under the JV Agreement, in the event we are unable to complete the acquisition of Raven’s interest in the TMC project.

We will have to raise substantial additional capital in order to fully implement the business plan. If economic reserves of gold and/or other minerals are proven, additional capital will be needed to actually develop and mine those reserves. The Company must expend an additional $4.7 million over the next two years to achieve 80% earn in on the TMC project, unless we acquire the TMC project. Even if economic reserves are found, if we are unable to raise this capital, we will not be able to complete our earn in on this project.

Our principal source of liquidity for the next several years will need to be the continued raising of capital through the issuance of equity or debt. WMTN plans to raise funds for each step of the project and as each step is successfully completed, raise the capital for the next phase. WMTN believes this will reduce the cost of capital as compared to trying to raise all the anticipated capital at once up front. However, since WMTN’s ability to raise additional capital will be affected by many factors, most of which are not within our control (see “Risk Factors”), no assurance can be given that WMTN will in fact be able to raise the additional capital as it is needed.

Our primary activity will be to proceed with the TMC project and other mining opportunities that may present themselves from time to time. We cannot guarantee that the TMC project will be successful or that any project that we embark upon will be successful. Our goal is to build our Company into a successful mineral exploration and development company.

CORPORATE INFORMATION

We were incorporated in the state of Colorado on October 18, 2007. Our principal executive office is located at 2186 S. Holly St., Suite 104, Denver, CO 80222, and our telephone number is (303) 800-0678. Our principal website address is located at www.westmountaingold.com. The information on our website is not incorporated as a part of this Form 10-Q.

THE COMPANY’S COMMON STOCK

Our common stock currently trades on the OTCBB Exchange ("OTCBB") under the symbol "WMTN."

KEY MARKET PRIORITIES

Our primary key market priority will be to proceed with the TMC project and other mining opportunities that may present themselves from time to time. We cannot guarantee that the TMC project will be successful or that any project that we embark upon will be successful. Our goal is to build our Company into a successful mineral exploration and development company.

PRIMARY RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

We are exposed to various risks related to the volatility of the price of gold, our need for additional financing, our joint venture agreements, our reserve estimates, operating as a going concern, unique difficulties and uncertainties in mining exploration ventures, and a volatile market price for our common stock. These risks and uncertainties are discussed in more detail below in this item.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following table presents certain consolidated statement of operations information and presentation of that data as a percentage of change from period-to-period.

This will allow us to achieve 51% earn in under the JV Agreement, in the event we are unable to complete the acquisition of Raven’s interest in the TMC project.

We will have to raise substantial additional capital in order to fully implement the business plan. If economic reserves of gold and/or other minerals are proven, additional capital will be needed to actually develop and mine those reserves. The Company must expend an additional $4.7 million over the next two years to achieve 80% earn in on the TMC project, in the event we are unable to complete the acquisition of Raven’s interest in the TMC project. Even if economic reserves are found, if we are unable to raise this capital, we will not be able to complete our earn in on this project.

We have budgeted the following expenditures for the next twelve months of approximately $10,300,000, depending on additional financing, for general and administrative expenses and exploration and development to implement the business plan as described above.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

The application of GAAP involves the exercise of varying degrees of judgment. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We believe that of our significant accounting policies (see summary of significant accounting policies more fully described in Note 2 to the financial statements set forth in this report), the following policies involve a higher degree of judgment and/or complexity:

Cash and Cash Equivalents

We classify highly liquid temporary investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased as cash equivalents. The Company maintains cash balances at various financial institutions. Balances at US banks are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000. Beginning December 31, 2010, through December 31, 2013, all noninterest-bearing transaction accounts are fully insured, regardless of the balance of the account, at all FDIC-insured institutions. We have not experienced any losses in such accounts and believe it is not exposed to any significant risk for cash on deposit. As of January 31, 2013, we had no uninsured cash amounts.

Equipment

Mineral Properties

We have access to the camp by airplane. There is no road access from camp to the project area where drilling and bulk sampling mining occurs. It is approximately 1 1/2 miles from camp to the project area. Power generation is by diesel generator at the camp. Fuel is brought in for the generators by a cargo plane to the airstrip.

Long-Lived Assets

We review our long-lived assets for impairment annually or when changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Long-lived assets under certain circumstances are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value. Assets to be disposed of and assets not expected to provide any future service potential to the Company are recorded at the lower of carrying amount or fair value (less the projected cost associated with selling the asset). To the extent carrying values exceed fair values, an impairment loss is recognized in operating results. As of January 31, 2013, there are no impairments recognized.

Alaska Reclamation and Remediation Liabilities

TMC operates in Alaska. The State of Alaska Department of Natural Resources requires a pool of funds from all permittees with exploration and mining projects to cover reclamation. There is a $750 per acre disturbance reclamation bond that is required for disturbance of 5 acres or more and/or removal of more the 50,000 cubic yards of material. The Company may exceed the minimum requirements in 2013 and may to be required to file a reclamation bond.

We expect to record reclamation bond as a liability in the period in which we are required to pay a reclamation bond. A corresponding asset is also recorded and depreciated over the life of the asset. After the initial measurement of the asset retirement obligation, the liability will be adjusted at the end of each reporting period to reflect changes in reclamation bond.

Mineral Exploration and Development Costs

Should a property be abandoned, its capitalized costs are charged to operations. We charge to operations the allocable portion of capitalized costs attributable to properties sold. Capitalized costs are allocated to properties sold based on the proportion of claims sold to the claims remaining within the project area.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

This item is not applicable.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We have adopted and maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods required under the SEC’s rules and forms and that the information is gathered and communicated to our management to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As required by Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, our management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of January 31, 2013. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance 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, and our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating and implementing our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon the evaluation described above, our management concluded that they believe that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective, as of the end of the period covered by this report, in providing reasonable assurance 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 our management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures, and is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Management identified the weaknesses discussed below.

Identified Material Weakness

A material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the financial statements will not be prevented or detected. Management identified material weaknesses during its assessment of internal controls over financial reporting as of January 31, 2013:

The Company did not have an audit committee during the year ended October 31, 2012.

We formed an audit committee on October 26, 2012 which consists of two independent directors. An audit committee is expected to improve oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures. We expect to expand the audit committee during 2013.

(b) Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of the end of the period covered by this report based on the framework in “Internal Control—Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on that assessment, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our internal control over financial reporting were not effective to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting and the preparation of our financial statements for external purposes in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles. The effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of January 31, 2013 has not been audited by our, an independent registered public accounting firm.

During the quarter ended January 31, 2013, there were no other changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during this fiscal quarter that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to have a materially affect, on our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

There are no pending legal proceedings against us that are expected to have a material adverse effect on our cash flows, financial condition or results of operations.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

The following factors, in addition to the other information contained in this report, should be considered carefully in evaluating us and our prospects. This report (including without limitation the following factors that may affect operating results) contains forward-looking statements (within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act) regarding us and our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. Words such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates” and similar expressions or variations of such words are intended to identify forward-looking statements, but are not the exclusive means of identifying forward-looking statements in this report. Additionally, statements concerning future matters such as the development of new products, enhancements or technologies, projections of revenues and profitability, possible changes in legislation and other statements regarding matters that are not historical are forward-looking statements.

The volatility of the price of gold could adversely affect our future operations and our ability to develop our properties.

The potential for profitability of our operations, the value of our properties and our ability to raise funding to conduct continued exploration and development, if warranted, are directly related to the market price of gold and other precious metals. The price of gold may also have a significant influence on the market price of our common stock and the value of our properties. Our decision to put a mine into production and to commit the funds necessary for that purpose must be made long before the first revenue from production would be received. A decrease in the price of gold may prevent our property from being economically mined or result in the write-off of assets whose value is impaired as a result of lower gold prices.

As of February 28, 2013, the price of gold was $1,578 per ounce, based on the daily London PM fix on that date. The volatility of mineral prices represents a substantial risk which no amount of planning or technical expertise can fully eliminate. In the event gold prices decline or remain low for prolonged periods of time, we might be unable to develop our properties, which may adversely affect our results of operations, financial performance and cash flows.

Our Joint Venture Agreement and Amended Claim Agreement are critical to our operations and are subject to cancellation.

On September 15, 2010, we signed an Exploration, Development and Mine Operating Agreement (“JV Agreement”) with Raven.

On February 19, 2013, we signed a Letter of Intent (“LOI”) to acquire Ravens remaining interest in the TMC Project in Alaska and terminate the JV Agreement. Upon closing, this transaction will give us 100% ownership in the project.

Under terms of the proposed transaction, which is subject to customary closing conditions, WMTN will acquire Raven’s interest for $6.0 million in cash and 750,000 shares of restricted common stock. The closing will occur in stages with WMTN making the following milestone payments:

	●	April 15, 2013: $3.0 million in cash and 750,000 shares of common stock bearing a two-year hold period.
	●	July 15, 2013: $2.0 million in cash.
	●	April 15, 2014: $1.0 million in cash.
	●	Going forward, Raven will be paid sliding scale NSR royalty of 0.5% to 3% on precious metals (3% above $1,500 gold price) and a flat 2% NSR royalty on all base metals. Also as part of the transaction, WMTN will complete its vesting requirements with International Tower Hill Mines Ltd. with a payment of $150,000 in cash and 250,000 shares of West Mountain common stock.

If the foregoing transaction does not close, the failure to operate in accordance with the JV Agreement could result in our interest in the JV Agreement being terminated. See Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of this critical agreement.

On January 7, 2011, TMC entered into an Amended Claims Agreement with Ben Porterfield related to five mining claims known as Fish Creek 1-5 (ADL-648383 through ADL-648387), which claims have been assigned to the TMC project. As part of this Amended Claims Agreement, Ben Porterfield consented to certain conveyances, assignments, contributions and transfers related to this above five mining claims.

The failure to operate in accordance with the Amended Claims Lease or Agreement could result in the lease pertaining to the mining claims that are the subject of the Amended Claims Agreement being terminated. See Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of this critical agreement.

Estimates of mineralized material are based on interpretation and assumptions and may yield less mineral production under actual conditions than is currently estimated.

Unless otherwise indicated, estimates of mineralized material presented in our press releases and regulatory filings are based upon estimates made by us and our consultants. When making determinations about whether to advance any of our projects to development, we must rely upon such estimated calculations as to the mineralized material on our properties. Until mineralized material is actually mined and processed, it must be considered an estimate only. These estimates are imprecise and depend on geological interpretation and statistical inferences drawn from drilling and sampling analysis, which may prove to be unreliable. We cannot assure you that these mineralized material estimates will be accurate or that this mineralized material can be mined or processed profitably. Any material changes in estimates of mineralized material will affect the economic viability of placing a property into production and such property’s return on capital. There can be no assurance that minerals recovered in small scale metallurgical tests will be recovered at production scale.

The mineralized material estimates have been determined and valued based on assumed future prices, cut-off grades and operating costs that may prove inaccurate. Extended declines in market prices for gold and silver may render portions of our mineralized material uneconomic and adversely affect the commercial viability of one or more of our properties and could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition.

There is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

Our audited financial statements for the period from inception (March 25, 2010) to January 31, 2013 indicate that there are a number of factors that raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Such factors identified in the report result from our limited history of operations, limited assets, and operating losses since inception. If we are not able to continue as a going concern, it is likely investors will lose their investments.

Because of the unique difficulties and uncertainties inherent in mineral exploration ventures, we face a high risk of business failure.

Potential investors should be aware of the difficulties normally encountered by new mineral exploration companies and the high rate of failure of such enterprises. The likelihood of success must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications and delays encountered in connection with the exploration of the mineral properties that we plan to undertake. These potential problems include, but are not limited to, unanticipated problems relating to exploration, and additional costs and expenses that may exceed current estimates. The expenditures to be made by us in the exploration of the mineral claim may not result in the discovery of mineral deposits. Problems such as unusual or unexpected formations and other conditions are involved in mineral exploration and often result in unsuccessful exploration efforts. If the results of our exploration do not reveal viable commercial mineralization, we may decide to abandon our claim and acquire new claims for new exploration. The acquisition of additional claims will be dependent upon us possessing capital resources at the time in order to purchase such claims. If no funding is available, we may be forced to abandon our operations.

If we do not obtain additional financing, our business will fail.

For the years ended October 31, 2012 and 2011 and for the period from inception (March 25, 2010) to January 31, 2013, we had no revenues.

Net loss for the year ended October 31, 2012 was $5,550,000. Net loss for the year ended October 31, 2011 was $4,035,000. The net loss included $1,993,000 of non-cash expenses for the year ended October 31, 2012.

Our current operating funds are less than necessary to complete all intended exploration of the property, and therefore we will need to obtain additional financing in order to complete our business plan. As of March 5, 2013, we had approximately $353,000 in cash.

Our business plan calls for significant expenses in connection with the exploration of the property. We do not currently have sufficient funds to conduct continued exploration on the property and require additional financing in order to determine whether the property contains economic mineralization. We will also require additional financing if the costs of the exploration of the property are greater than anticipated.

We will require additional financing to sustain our business operations if we are not successful in earning revenues once exploration is complete. We do not currently have any arrangements for financing and we can provide no assurance to investors that we will be able to find such financing if required. Obtaining additional financing would be subject to a number of factors, including the market prices for copper, silver and gold, investor acceptance of our property and general market conditions. These factors may make the timing, amount, terms or conditions of additional financing unavailable to us.

The most likely source of future funds presently available to us is through the sale of equity capital. Any sale of share capital will result in dilution to existing shareholders. The only other anticipated alternative for the financing of further exploration would be our sale of a partial interest in the property to a third party in exchange for cash or exploration expenditures, which is not presently contemplated.

Because we have commenced limited business operations, we face a high risk of business failure.

We started exploring our properties in the summer of 2011. Accordingly, we have no way to evaluate the likelihood that our business will be successful. Although we were incorporated in the state of Colorado on October 18, 2007, the Company just acquired our mineral properties with our acquisition of TMC on February 28, 2011. We have not earned any revenues as of the date of this Form 10-Q. TMC itself has only been in existence since March 25, 2010.

Prior to completion of our exploration stage, we anticipate that we will incur increased operating expenses without realizing any revenues. We therefore expect to incur significant losses into the foreseeable future. We recognize that if we are unable to generate significant revenues from development of the mineral claims and the production of minerals from the claims, we will not be able to earn profits or continue operations.

There is no history upon which to base any assumption as to the likelihood that we will prove successful, and we can provide investors with no assurance that we will generate any operating revenues or ever achieve profitable operations. If we are unsuccessful in addressing these risks, our business will most likely fail.

We are dependent on key personnel.

Our success depends to a significant degree upon the continued contributions of key management and other personnel, some of whom could be difficult to replace. We do not maintain key man life insurance covering certain of our officers. Our success will depend on the performance of our officers, our ability to retain and motivate our officers, our ability to integrate new officers into our operations and the ability of all personnel to work together effectively as a team. Our failure to retain and recruit officers and other key personnel could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We lack an operating history and we expect to have losses in the future.

Except for our initial exploration efforts as described above, we have not started our proposed business operations or realized any revenues. We have no operating history upon which an evaluation of our future success or failure can be made. Our ability to achieve and maintain profitability and positive cash flow is dependent upon the following:

	●	Our ability to locate a profitable mineral property;
	●	Our ability to generate revenues; and
	●	Our ability to reduce exploration costs.

Based upon current plans, we expect to incur operating losses in foreseeable future periods. This will happen because there are expenses associated with the research and exploration of our mineral properties. We cannot guarantee that we will be successful in generating revenues in the future. Failure to generate revenues will cause us to go out of business.

Because of the inherent dangers involved in mineral exploration, there is a risk that we may incur liability or damages as we conduct our business.

The search for valuable minerals involves numerous hazards. As a result, we may become subject to liability for such hazards, including pollution, cave-ins and other hazards against which we cannot insure or against which we may elect not to insure. Although we conducted a due diligence investigation prior to entering into the acquisition of TMC, risk remains regarding any undisclosed or unknown liabilities associated with this project. The payment of such liabilities may have a material adverse effect on our financial position.

Because we are small and do not have sufficient capital, we may have to cease operation even if we have found mineralized material.

Because we are small and do not have sufficient capital, we must limit our exploration. Because we may have to limit our exploration, we may be unable to mine mineralized material, even if our mineral claims contain mineralized material. If we cannot mine mineralized material, we may have to cease operations.

If we become subject to onerous government regulation or other legal uncertainties, our business will be negatively affected. Governmental regulations impose material restrictions on mineral property exploration and development. Under Alaska mining law, to engage in exploration will require permits, the posting of bonds, and the performance of remediation work for any physical disturbance to the land. If we proceed to commence drilling operations on the mineral claims, we will incur additional regulatory compliance costs.

In addition, the legal and regulatory environment that pertains to mineral exploration is uncertain and may change. Uncertainty and new regulations could increase our costs of doing business and prevent us from exploring for ore deposits. The growth of demand for ore may also be significantly slowed. This could delay growth in potential demand for and limit our ability to generate revenues. In addition to new laws and regulations being adopted, existing laws may be applied to limit or restrict mining that have not as yet been applied. These new laws may increase our cost of doing business with the result that our financial condition and operating results may be harmed.

We may not have access to all of the supplies and materials we need to begin exploration that could cause us to delay or suspend operations.

Competition and unforeseen limited sources of supplies in the industry could result in occasional spot shortages of supplies, such as explosives, and certain equipment such as bulldozers and excavators that we might need to conduct exploration. We have not attempted to locate or negotiate with any suppliers of products, equipment or materials. We will attempt to locate products, equipment and materials after we raise additional funding. If we cannot find the products and equipment we need, we will have to suspend our exploration plans until we do find the products and equipment we need.

Because of the speculative nature of exploration of mineral properties, there is no assurance that our exploration activities will result in the discovery of new commercially exploitable quantities of minerals.

We plan to continue to source exploration mineral claims. The search for valuable minerals as a business is extremely risky. We can provide investors with no assurance that additional exploration on our properties will establish that additional commercially exploitable reserves of gold exist on our properties. Problems such as unusual or unexpected geological formations or other variable conditions are involved in exploration and often result in exploration efforts being unsuccessful. The additional potential problems include, but are not limited to, unanticipated problems relating to exploration and attendant additional costs and expenses that may exceed current estimates. These risks may result in us being unable to establish the presence of additional commercial quantities of ore on our mineral claims with the result that our ability to fund future exploration activities may be impeded.

Weather and location challenges may restrict and delay our work on our property.

We plan to conduct our exploration on a seasonal basis. It is possible that snow or rain could restrict and delay work on the properties to a significant degree. Our property is located in a relatively remote location, which creates additional transportation and energy costs and challenges.

As we face intense competition in the mining industry, we will have to compete with our competitors for financing and for qualified managerial and technical employees.

The mining industry is intensely competitive in all of its phases. Competition includes large established mining companies with substantial capabilities and with greater financial and technical resources than we have. As a result of this competition, we may be unable to acquire additional attractive mining claims or financing on terms we consider acceptable. We also compete with other mining companies in the recruitment and retention of qualified managerial and technical employees. If we are unable to successfully compete for financing or for qualified employees, our exploration and development programs may be slowed down or suspended.

Trading of our stock may be restricted by Blue Sky eligibility and the SEC's penny stock regulations which may limit a stockholder's ability to buy and sell our stock.

We currently are not Blue Sky eligible in certain states so trading of the Company’s stock in such states may be restricted. In addition, the SEC has adopted regulations which generally define "penny stock" to be any equity security that has a market price (as defined) less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Under the penny stock rules, additional sales practice requirements are imposed on broker-dealers who sell to persons other than established customers and "accredited investors." The term "accredited investor" refers generally to institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000 or individuals with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 jointly with their spouse. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document in a form prepared by the SEC which provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account. The bid and offer quotations, and the broker-dealer and salesperson compensation information, must be given to the customer orally or in writing prior to effecting the transaction and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customer's confirmation. In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for the stock that is subject to broker-dealers ability to trade in the Company’s securities. The Blue Sky eligibility and the penny stock rules may discourage investor interest in and limit the marketability of, the Company’s common stock.

The sale of a significant number of our shares of common stock could depress the price of our common stock.

Sales or issuances of a large number of shares of common stock in the public market or the perception that sales may occur could cause the market price of our common stock to decline. As of March 5, 2013, there were 37.4 million shares of common stock and warrants issued and outstanding on a fully diluted basis. Therefore the amount of shares that have been registered by the Company for resale by certain investors (up to 6,707,715 shares of common stock) constitutes a significant percentage of the issued and outstanding shares and the sale of all or a portion of these shares could have a negative effect on the market price of our common stock. Significant shares of common stock are held by our principal shareholders, other Company insiders and other large shareholders. As “affiliates” (as defined under Rule 144 of the Securities Act (“Rule 144”)) of the Company, our principal shareholders, other Company insiders and other large shareholders may only sell their shares of common stock in the public market pursuant to an effective registration statement or in compliance with Rule 144.

We may engage in acquisitions, mergers, strategic alliances, joint ventures and divestitures that could result in financial results that are different than expected.

In the normal course of business, we may engage in discussions relating to possible acquisitions, equity investments, mergers, strategic alliances, joint ventures and divestitures. All such transactions are accompanied by a number of risks, including:

	●	Use of significant amounts of cash,
	●	Potentially dilutive issuances of equity securities on potentially unfavorable terms,
	●	Incurrence of debt on potentially unfavorable terms as well as impairment expenses related to goodwill and amortization expenses related to other intangible assets,
	●	The possibility that we may pay too much cash or issue too many of our shares as the purchase price for an acquisition relative to the economic benefits that we ultimately derive from such acquisition.
	●	The process of integrating any acquisition may create unforeseen operating difficulties and expenditures. The areas where we may face difficulties in the foreseeable include:
	●	Diversion of management time, during the period of negotiation through closing and after closing, from its focus on operating the businesses to issues of integration,
	●	The need to integrate each company's accounting, management information, human resource and other administrative systems to permit effective management, and the lack of control if such integration is delayed or not implemented,
	●	The need to implement controls, procedures and policies appropriate for a public company that may not have been in place in private companies, prior to acquisition,
	●	The need to incorporate acquired technology, content or rights into our products and any expenses related to such integration, and
	●	The need to successfully develop any acquired in-process technology to realize any value capitalized as intangible assets.

From time to time, we may engage in discussions with candidates regarding potential divestures. If a divestiture does occur, we cannot be certain that our business, operating results and financial condition will not be materially and adversely affected. A successful divestiture depends on various factors, including our ability to:

	●	Effectively transfer liabilities, contracts, facilities and employees to any purchaser,
	●	Identify and separate the intellectual property to be divested from the intellectual property that we wish to retain,
	●	Reduce fixed costs previously associated with the divested assets or business, and
	●	Collect the proceeds from any divestitures.

In addition, if customers of the divested business do not receive the same level of service from the new owners, this may adversely affect our other businesses to the extent that these customers also purchase other products offered by us. All of these efforts require varying levels of management resources, which may divert our attention from other business operations.

If we do not realize the expected benefits or synergies of any divestiture transaction, our consolidated financial position, results of operations, cash flows and stock price could be negatively impacted.

The market price of our common stock may be volatile.

The market price of our common stock has been and is likely in the future to be volatile. Our common stock price may fluctuate in response to factors such as:

	●	Announcements by us regarding resources, liquidity, significant acquisitions, equity investments and divestitures, strategic relationships, addition or loss of significant customers and contracts, capital expenditure commitments, loan, note payable and agreement defaults, loss of our subsidiaries and impairment of assets,
	●	Issuance or repayment of debt, accounts payable or convertible debt for general or merger and acquisition purposes,
	●	Sale of a significant number of shares of our common stock by shareholders,
	●	General market and economic conditions,
	●	Quarterly variations in our operating results,
	●	Investor relation activities,
	●	Announcements of technological innovations,
	●	New product introductions by us or our competitors,
	●	Competitive activities, and
	●	Additions or departures of key personnel.
