PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION, CONTINUED:

United States Antimony Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

1.  Basis of Presentation:

The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information, as well as the instructions to Form 10-Q.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of the Company’s management, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the interim financial statements have been included. Operating results for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2014.

Reclassifications
Certain consolidated financial statement amounts for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2013, have been reclassified to conform to the 2014 presentation.  These reclassifications had no effect on the net income (loss) or accumulated deficit as previously reported.

Management estimates their effective tax rate at 0% for the current year.

For further information refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.

During the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company incurred interest expense of $53,326 and $46,416, respectively, of which $52,563, and $9,415, respectively, has been capitalized as part of the cost of construction projects in Mexico.

2.      Loss Per Common Share:

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted earnings per share is calculated based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period plus the effect of potentially dilutive common stock equivalents, including warrants to purchase the Company's common stock and convertible preferred stock.  Management has determined that the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013, is not applicable since any additions to outstanding shares related to common stock equivalents would be anti-dilutive.

As of June 30, 2014 and 2013, the potentially dilutive common stock equivalents not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share as their effect would have been anti-dilutive are as follows:

   
June 30, 2014
   
June 30, 2013
 
Warrants
    2,039,407       2,297,167

3.     Inventories:

Inventories at June 30, 2014, and December 31, 2013, consisted primarily of finished antimony products, antimony metal, antimony ore, and finished zeolite products that are stated at the lower of first-in, first-out cost or estimated net realizable value. Finished antimony products, antimony metal and finished zeolite products costs include raw materials, direct labor and processing facility overhead costs and freight. Inventory at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, is as follows:

4.      Accounts Receivable and Due to Factor:

The Company factors designated trade receivables pursuant to a factoring agreement with LSQ Funding Group L.C., an unrelated factor (the “Factor”).  The agreement specifies that eligible trade receivables are factored with recourse. We submit selected trade receivables to the factor, and receive 83% of the face value of the receivable by wire transfer. The Factor withholds 15% as retainage, and 2% as a servicing fee.  Upon payment by the customer, we receive the remainder of the amount due from the factor.  The 2% servicing fee is recorded on the consolidated statement of operations in the period of sale to the factor. John Lawrence, CEO, is a personal guarantor of the amount due to Factor. 
 
Trade receivables assigned to the Factor are carried at the original invoice amount less an estimate made for doubtful accounts.  Under the terms of the recourse provision, the Company is required to reimburse the Factor, upon demand, for factored receivables that are not paid on time.  Accordingly, these receivables are accounted for as a secured financing arrangement and not as a sale of financial assets.  The allowance for doubtful accounts is based on management’s regular evaluation of individual customer’s receivables and consideration of a customer’s financial condition and credit history.  Trade receivables are written off when deemed uncollectible.  Recoveries of trade receivables previously written off are recorded when received.  Interest is not charged on past due accounts.

We present the receivables, net of allowances, as current assets and we present the amount potentially due to the Factor as a secured financing in current liabilities

5.      Other Assets:

Guadalupe

On March 7, 2012 and on April 4, 2012 the Company entered into a supply agreement and a loan agreement, respectively, (“the Agreements”) with several individuals collectively referred to as ‘Grupo Roga’ or ‘Guadalupe.’  The individuals are the holders of mining concessions located in Mexico in which the Company is interested.  The supply agreement specified that the Company would advance monies to Guadalupe for specific expenses, including repairs of road and payment of mining taxes.  In addition, the Company agreed to purchase antimony ore mined at Guadalupe and pay for mining and trucking costs incurred with the condition that the ore maintain a grade of 3% or more of recoverable antimony. The advances are to be repaid by deducting 10% from the value of each antimony ore shipment. During 2012 and 2013, the recoverable grade of antimony was less than 3% and the amounts due the Company from Guadalupe increased as a result of recoverable antimony shortfalls.

The Agreements with Guadalupe granted the Company an option to purchase the concessions outright for $2,000,000. The Agreements also provide that in event of a breach of the terms by Guadalupe that the Company has a right to enter the property and take possession of the mining concessions. The advances are collateralized by a mortgage on the concessions.  As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company had cumulative loans and advances due from Guadalupe of $521,296, and $489,281, respectively, included in its other assets.

Soyatal

On August 5, 2013, the Company entered into a supply agreement with the owners of the Soyatal concessions similar to that of Guadalupe and notified the owners of Soyatal that it was exercising the option to purchase the Soyatal property. The option exercise agreement allowed the Company to apply all amounts previously due the Company (the “Purchase Price Credits”) by Soyatal of $420,411 to the purchase price consideration. At December 31, 2013, the Company had Purchase Price Credits of approximately $325,000 which can be used as payments on the note at the rate of $100,000 per year until gone.  The Company is obligated to make payments of $200,000 annually through 2020, and a final payment of $100,000 is due in 2021.  The debt payable for the Soyatal mine is non-interest bearing. The Company recorded the debt and the related Soyatal mine asset by determining the net present value of the contractual stream of payments due using a 6% discount rate. The resulting discount on the Soyatal debt is approximately $212,000 at December 31, 2013 and $189,171 at June 30, 2014.  The discount is netted against the debt payable resulting in a discounted amount of $762,541, at December 31, 2013 and $785,417 at June 30, 2014.

6.      Commitments and Contingencies, Continued:

From time to time, the Company is assessed fines and penalties by the Mine Safety and Health Administration (“MSHA”). Using appropriate regulatory channels, management may contest these proposed assessments. The Company has accrued $7,909 of liabilities in other accrued liabilities as of June 30, 2014 related to such assessments.
 
We are in the process of reviewing our Mexico income tax returns filed since 2009 to determine that they comply with the law for transfer pricing in Mexico, and to ensure that we are taking all of the deductions allowed.  We have engaged a tax professional in Mexico to assist us.  At this time, we do not have enough final data to determine if we have a liability for taxes to Mexico.
In June of 2013 the Company entered into a lease to mine antimony ore from concessions located in the Wadley Mining district in Mexico.  The lease calls for a mandatory term of one year and requires payments of $34,800 per month.  The lease is renewable each year with a 15 day notice to the lessor, and agreement of terms.

7.      Notes Payable to Bank:

During 2012, the Company negotiated a new credit facility increasing the Company’s lines of credit by $202,000.  As part of this agreement, the Company has pledged two $101,000 certificates of deposit as collateral.  The increased loan facility allows us access to borrowings at an interest rate of 5.0% for the portion of the credit line used.  At June 30, 2014, we had drawn $100,000 which was reported as notes payable to bank.
 
At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company had the following notes payable to the bank:

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company paid royalty expenses, based on sales of zeolite, of $10,541 and $21,044, in 2014, respectively, and $18,909 and $29,878 in 2013, respectively, to a company controlled by the estate of Al Dugan, formerly a significant stockholder and the father of a former director.

11.    Income Taxes:

The Company had recognized a deferred tax asset of $229,451 as of December 31, 2012. During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company recognized a valuation allowance equal to 100% of the net deferred tax asset, as management of the Company cannot determine that it is more likely than not the Company will realize the benefit of the net deferred tax asset. The net effect is that the deferred tax asset as of December 31, 2013, and any deferred tax assets that may have been incurred since then, are fully reserved for at June 30, 2014.

In the fourth quarter of 2013, the Company borrowed $150,000 from Mr. and Mrs. Robert Detwiler, stockholders of the Company. Prior to the end of 2013, the Detwiler’s converted their notes into 120,000 shares common stock and 60,000 stock purchase warrants. The terms of the conversion were identical to those offered other investors that purchased common stock and warrants near the time of the conversion and no gain or loss on the conversion resulted. During the three months ended June 30, 2014, the Company issued 235,717 shares of its commons stock to Mr. and Mrs. Robert Detwiler and two other shareholders in satisfaction of $330,000 of additional debt that the Detwiler’s and two other shareholders had loaned the Company.

PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION, CONTINUED:

ITEM 2.                      Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and FinancialCondition, continued:

For the second quarter of 2014, we incurred a loss of $424,272 compared to a loss of $552,208 during the same quarter of 2013. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, we incurred a loss of $782,442 compared to a loss of $961,033 during the same period of 2013. The depreciation and amortization for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2014, was $187,766 and $372,819, respectively.  The losses in 2014 were primarily due to a decrease in the amount of antimony sold and a decrease in the market price for antimony.  The 2014 losses include excess production costs incurred in Mexico of $471,673 for the quarter, and $533,096 for the six months, ended June 30, 2014.  The excess production costs are the result of the Los Juarez property not being in production, metallurgical work on Los Juarez concentrates, the Soyatal mine being shut down, the Puerto Blanco mill only running at 20% capacity, and the Wadley mill not producing.  Without the Mexican excess production costs, our production cost is $4.35 per pound of antimony contained, and our average sales price for the second quarter of 2014 was $4.94, leaving us a margin of $.59 per pound without the excess production costs. The amount of antimony available for sale from Mexico declined due to shipping problems where we could not get trucks to transport our raw material to Montana. We now have a dedicated truck to solve this problem. During the month of April, we received limited raw material from our North American supplier.  In addition, the price of antimony metal declined from $5.32 during the second quarter of 2013 to $4.94 in the second quarter of 2014, a decrease of $.38 per lb (7%).  Our precious metals revenue in the first quarter of 2014 was equivalent to $.40 per pound of antimony sold. The amount of metal produced in Mexico was approximately 168,000 lbs for the second quarter of 2014 compared to approximately 201,000 pounds produced for the same quarter of 2013, a decrease of 16.4%.  The production from Mexico for the quarter and six months would have been greater except that we were processing test batches of ore from Los Juarez to determine the precious metals recovery.  Antimony oxide prices have now fallen from a high of $8.11 per lb in 2011, to $3.82 per lb in June of 2014.  The cost of production in the USA was down by approximately $358,000 from the same quarter in the prior year, primarily due to the decrease in the amount of product produced and sold.  We now have approximately two months of smelter feed stockpiled, and we are increasing our furnace capacity at our Madero smelter by 50% to catch up with our increased raw material production. Our smelter production at Mexico is on track to be the best quarter ever.  We have approximately 192,000 pounds of antimony at or in transit to the U.S. and Mexican smelters. We have an estimated 90,000 pounds of antimony at our Wadley mine. We estimate that this will result in gross revenue of approximately $1,390,000 to us when processed.  Our efforts in Mexico are resulting in increased product that will be shipped to our Montana plant.  We expect to have increased revenue from precious metals from our Mexico division.

We contracted in July, 2012, to install a natural gas pipeline for our Mexico smelter operation that we now expect to cost $1.8MM in total.  Our fuel costs are our largest expense in Mexico, and we are expecting the switch from propane to natural gas to decrease our Mexico fuel costs by 75% when the pipeline is complete.  With natural gas, the average production cost for the Mexico smelter would be $3.50 per pound instead of $4.37.  This would reduce the combined costs for both smelters from $4.35 to $4.01per pound, and increase the gross margin from 13% to 23%.  The pipeline is substantially completed, and hookup by PEMEX should be finalized sometime in August of 2014.

PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION, CONTINUED:

ITEM 2.                      Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and FinancialCondition, continued:

Zeolite sales for the quarter ending June 30, 2014, decreased by approximately $47,000 compared to the same period in 2013.  The second quarter of 2014 realized a net profit of approximately $63,000 compared to a net profit of approximately $40,000 for the first quarter of 2013, an increase of 58%. The sales price increased by approximately $9 per ton from the same period of the prior year.  There was a decrease in the tons of zeolite sold of approximately 340 tons for the quarter ended June 30, 2014, over the comparable period for 2013, a decrease of 12%.  The BRZ profit for the six months ended June 30, 2014, was $171,965 compared to $108,197 for the same period in the prior year, an increase of 59%.  The depreciation for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2014, was approximately $55,000 and $110,000, respectively.  BRZ is providing approximately $500,000 cash flow annually to the consolidated company.  We have installed new equipment at BRZ to produce a water filtration product that could represent a major market, and we continue to have interest from customers in our Bear River Zeolite products.

 Our general and administrative costs were little changed for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2014, compared to the same periods for the prior year.  Management is seeking ways to bring these costs down.

Our net working capital increased by approximately $907,000 from December 31, 2013.  Our cash increased by approximately $1,551,000 during the same period.  The increase in our net working capital was primarily due to approximately $1,937,000 cash from the sale of stock, $180,000 borrowing, and approximately $210,000 of current debt paid with stock.  Decreases to working capital were from approximately $632,000 of capital expenditures, a $690,000 EBITDA loss, and $98,000 cash paid on debt. We have estimated commitments for construction and improvements, primarily for furnaces and installation of the 500 ton per day mill, of approximately $550,000 over the next twelve months. We believe that with our current cash balance, along with the future cash flow from operations, we have adequate liquid assets to meet these commitments and service our debt for the next twelve months.  We have lines of credit of $202,000 which have been drawn down by $100,000 at June 30, 2014.

ITEM 3.                      Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk

We sell our antimony products based on a world market price, and we buy a majority of our raw material based on the same market prices.  Analysis of our costs indicate that, for the quarter ended June 30, 2014, raw materials were approximately 50% of our cost of goods sold.  Most of our production costs are fixed in nature, and could not be decreased readily without decreasing our production.  During the quarter and six months ending June 30, 2014, a $2 per pound decrease in our sales price would have likely caused our gross profit to decrease $1 per pound.

ITEM 4.                      Controls and Procedures

EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our chief financial officer conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Rules
13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of June 30, 2014.  It was determined that there were material weaknesses affecting our disclosure controls and procedures and, as a result of those weaknesses, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2014. These material weaknesses are as follows:

●  
The Company lacks proper segregation of duties. As with any company the size of ours, this lack of segregation of duties is due to limited resources. The president authorizes the majority of the expenditures and signs checks.

●  
During our year-end audit, our independent registered accountants discovered material misstatements in our financial statements that required audit adjustments.

MANAGEMENT'S REMEDIATION INITIATIVES

We are aware of these material weaknesses and have procedures to ensure that independent review of material transactions is performed.  We have internal control measures to mitigate the lack of segregation of duties as follows:
●  
The CFO reviews all bank reconciliations
●  
The CFO reviews all material transactions for capital expenditures
●  
The CFO reviews all period ending entries for preparation of financial statements, including the calculation of inventory, depreciation, and amortization
●  
The CFO review all material entries for compliance with generally accepted accounting principles prior to the annual audit and 10Q filings
●  
The Company has a formal capitalization policy
●  
In addition, we consult with independent experts when complex transactions are entered into.

CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

There were no significant changes made to internal controls for the quarter ended June 30, 2014.
