PART I

 

ITEM 1 – DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

 

Background

 

Panex Resources Inc. ("Panex" or the "Company") is a Nevada corporation that was incorporated on May 28, 2004.

 

The Company conducts principal and technical activities from 13 Allegro, Legato, Durbanville, South Africa. The telephone number is +41 76 753 4401. These offices are provided to the Company on a month-to-month basis. The Company believes these offices are adequate for the business requirements during the next 12 months. The Company does not own any real property. Panex maintains its statutory registered agent's office at 1859 Whitney Mesa Drive, Henderson, Nevada, 89014.

 

Panex is an exploration stage company engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mineral properties. The Company's plan of operations is to conduct mineral exploration activities on mineral properties in order to assess whether these claims possess commercially exploitable mineral deposits. Panex's exploration program will be designed to explore for commercially viable deposits of base and precious minerals, such as gold, silver, lead, barium, mercury, copper, and zinc minerals.

 

Panex has an authorized capital of 2,000,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.001 per share with 1,125,636,507 shares of common stock currently issued and outstanding. On August 30, 2010, the authorized capital was increased from 75,000,000 shares of common stock to 500,000,000 shares of common stock.

 

On July 14, 2014, the company effectively increased its' authorized capital from 500,000,000 shares of common stock to 2,000,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.001 per share. The increase in the authorized capital was approved on June 4, 2014 by shareholders of Panex owning approximately 53% of the outstanding voting shares of common stock.

 

Panex has not been involved in any bankruptcy, receivership or similar proceedings. There have been no material reclassifications, mergers, consolidations or purchases or sales of a significant amount of assets not in the ordinary course of Panex's business.

 

Currently, Panex has not obtained an employer identification number for the purpose of registering to do business in the United States. Panex does not currently conduct any business in the United States nor employ any staff in the United States and is therefore not required by law to obtain an employer identification number at this time. Panex will take immediate steps to obtain an employer identification number if it becomes necessary to do so at any time in the future.

 

Plan of Operation

 

Panex is an Exploration Stage Company. Panex's principal business is the acquisition and exploration of mineral resources. Panex currently has no interest in any mineral resources or properties but is continuing to identify and assess viable mineral properties or mineral projects.

 

Panex has not generated any revenues from its mineral exploration activities. From the time of its incorporation in 2004 to early 2008, Panex was actively engaged in the exploration of various mineral projects that were prospective for gold, silver and copper. Since 2008, a combination of limited exploration success and a dwindling of its working capital caused Panex to withdraw from its mineral exploration projects.

 

During the next 12 months, Panex, intends to seek new opportunities in the mineral property sector.

 

Panex intends acquire mineral properties that management believes to be undervalued or that management believes may realize a substantial benefit from being publicly owned. Panex will continue to identify and assess undervalued mineral properties. A small number of mineral properties are presently being reviewed.

The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts or classification of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

 

Property Interests

 

The Company on July 15, 2015, through the wholly owned subsidiary corporation, Panex Resources WA Pty Ltd. (ACN 607 016 491), entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Lazaraus Resources Pty Ltd. The Company purchased Lazaraus Resources' assets, rights and interests to the Exploration License E80/4675 located approximately 85km SW of Halls Creek in the Kimberley Mineral Field of Western Australia and all data reports and technical information related to E80/4675 including copies of all regulatory reporting; metadata files and databases.

 

Competition

 

Panex competes with other mining and exploration companies possessing greater financial resources and technical facilities than Panex in connection with the acquisition of mineral exploration claims and in connection with the recruitment and retention of qualified personnel. Many of Panex's competitors have a very diverse portfolio and have not confined their market to one mineral or property, but explore a wide array of minerals and mineral exploration properties. Some of these competitors have been in business for longer than Panex and may have established more strategic partnerships and relationships than Panex.

 

Management believes that it will have a competitive advantage over its competitors due to its network of contacts, which will enable it to identify and acquire prospective mineral properties more quickly and efficiently than many of its competitors.

 

Government Controls and Regulations

 

Panex is subject to various levels of government controls and regulations, which are supplemented and revised from time to time. Changes to current local, state or federal laws and regulations in the jurisdictions where Panex will operate could require additional capital expenditures and increased operating and/or reclamation costs. Panex is unable to predict what additional legislation or revisions may be proposed that might affect its business or when any such proposals, if enacted, might become effective. Such changes, however, could require increased capital and operating expenditures and could prevent or delay certain operations by Panex or the property operators. Although Panex is unable to predict what additional legislation, if any, might be proposed or enacted, additional regulatory requirements could render certain exploration activities uneconomical.

 

Patents/Trade Marks/Licences/Franchises/Concessions/Royalty Agreements or Labour Contracts

 

Panex currently does not own any patents or trade marks. Except of the property interest disclosed above, Panex is not party to any license or franchise agreements, concessions, royalty agreements or labor contracts arising from any patents or trademarks.

 

Number of Total Employees and Number of Full Time Employees

 

There are no employees at the present time, with the exception of its officers.

Holders of Record

 

Panex has approximately 110 holders of record of Panex's common stock as of November 6, 2015 according to a shareholders' list provided by Panex's transfer agent as of that date. The number of registered shareholders does not include any estimate by Panex of the number of beneficial owners of common stock held in street name. The transfer agent for Panex's common stock is Empire Stock Transfer Inc., 1859 Whitney Mesa Drive, Henderson, Nevada, 89014 and their telephone number is 702-818-5898.

 

c.

Dividends

 

There are no restrictions in Panex's Articles of Incorporation or By-laws that restrict Panex from declaring dividends. The Nevada Revised statutes, however, do prohibit Panex from declaring dividends where, after giving effect to the distribution of the dividend:

 

1.

Panex would not be able to pay its debts as they become due in the usual course of business; or

 
2.

Panex's total assets would be less than the sum of its total liabilities, plus the amount that would be needed to satisfy the rights of stockholders who have preferential rights superior to those receiving the distribution.

 

Panex has declared no cash dividends on its shares of common stock and is not subject to any restrictions that limit its ability to pay cash dividends on its shares of common stock. Cash dividends are declared at the sole discretion of Panex's Board of Directors.

 

d.

Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

 

There have been no sales of unregistered securities within the last three years that would be required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 701 of Regulation S-K, except for the following:

 

 
7
 

 

During August 2015, the Company entered into some share repurchase agreements for a total of 318,000,000 shares for USD$189,904.

 

Panex set the value of the restricted shares arbitrarily without reference to its assets, book value, revenues or other established criteria of value. All the restricted shares issued in this offering were issued for investment purposes in a "private transaction".

 

For the seven non-US creditors outside the United States in this closing, Panex relied upon Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 and Rule 901 - 905 of Regulation S promulgated pursuant to that Act by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Management is satisfied that Panex complied with the requirements of the exemption from the registration and prospectus delivery of the Securities Act of 1933. The settlement of debt was not a public offering and was not accompanied by any general advertisement or any general solicitation. Panex received from each creditor a completed and signed shares for debt agreement containing certain representations and warranties, including, among others, that (a) the creditor was not a U.S. person, (b) the creditor accepted the shares for debt for their own investment account and not on behalf of a U.S. person, and (c) there was no prearrangement for the resale of the shares with any buyer. No offer was made or accepted in the United States and the share certificates representing the shares were issued bearing a legend with the applicable trading restrictions.

 

e.

Penny Stock Rules

 

The SEC has also adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 (other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system).

 

The shares of Panex will remain penny stock for the foreseeable future. The classification of penny stock makes it more difficult for a broker-dealer to sell the stock into a secondary market, which makes it more difficult for a purchaser to liquidate his or her investment. Any broker-dealer engaged by the purchaser for the purpose of selling his or her shares in Panex will be subject to rules 15g-1 through 15g-10 of the Exchange Act. Rather than creating a need to comply with those rules, some broker-dealers will refuse to attempt to sell penny stock.

 

The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC, which:

 

 

·

contains a description of the nature and level of risk in the market for penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary trading;

 

·

contains a description of the broker's or dealer's duties to the customer and of the rights and remedies available to the customer with respect to a violation to such duties or other requirements;

 

·

contains a brief, clear, narrative description of a dealer market, including " bid" and " ask" prices for penny stocks and the significance of the spread between the bid and ask price;

 

·

contains a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary actions;

 

·

defines significant terms in the disclosure document or in the conduct of trading penny stocks; and

 

·

contains such other information and is in such form (including language, type, size, and format) as the Commission shall require by rule or regulation.

 

·

The broker-dealer also must provide, prior to effecting any transaction in a penny stock, the customer:

 

 

o

with bid and offer quotations for the penny stock;

 

 

o

the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction;

 

 

o

the number of shares to which such bid and ask prices apply, or other comparable information relating to the depth and liquidity of the market for such stock; and

 

 

o

monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account.

 

In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those 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 acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement, a written agreement to transactions involving penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement. These disclosure requirements will have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for Panex's stock because it will be subject to these penny stock rules. Therefore, stockholders may have difficulty selling those securities.

ITEM 6 – SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA

 

Panex is a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and is not required to provide the information required under this item.

 

ITEM 7 – MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Financial Statements and Notes to the Financial Statements filed with this Report.

 

Organization, Nature of Business, Going Concern and Management's Plans

 

Panex Resources Inc. ('Panex" or the "Company") was incorporated in the State of Nevada on May 28, 2004. The Company is considered to be an Exploration Stage Company. The Company's principal business is the acquisition and exploration of mineral resources.

 

Going concern and management's plans:

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. Since its inception on May 28, 2004, the Company has not generated revenue and has incurred net losses. The Company incurred net loss of $504,088 for the year ended August 31, 2015, and a deficit accumulated during the exploration stage of $13,898,314 for the period May 28, 2004 (inception) through August 31, 2015. Accordingly, it has not generated cash flow from operations and has primarily relied upon advances from shareholders and proceeds from equity financings to fund its operations. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

 

Except as disclosed above, the Company has no mineral property interests as of the date of this report. Certain mineral property interests are presently being considered, however it is too early to determine whether they may be considered appropriate for acquisition.

 

During the next 12 months, management's objective is to recapitalize Panex, continue to raise new capital and to seek new investment opportunities in the mineral sector. Management believes that its worldwide industry contacts will make it possible to identify and assess new projects for acquisition purposes.

 

Panex is seeking a viable business opportunity through acquisition, merger or other suitable business combination method, with a focus on undervalued mineral properties for eventual acquisition. Panex intends to concentrate its acquisition efforts on mineral properties or mineral exploration businesses that management believes to be undervalued or that management believes may realize a substantial benefit from being publicly owned. Panex will continue to identify and assess undervalued mineral properties when capital raisings are completed. A small number of mineral properties are presently being reviewed, but it is too early to say whether they may be considered appropriate for acquisition.

 

The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts or classification of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

Results of Operations

 

Panex has generated no operating revenues since its inception on May 28, 2004 through August 31, 2015.

 

For the year ended August 31, 2015, Panex had net interest expense of $nil, compared to $nil for the year ended August 31, 2014. Total expenses for the year ended August 31, 2015 were $372,802 compared to $1,978,789 for the year ended August 31, 2014. Expenses were lower in fiscal year 2015 than 2014 largely in consideration of less drilling and exploration activities.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

The financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. Since inception in May 2004, the Company has not generated revenue and has incurred net losses. The Company has working capital of $591,674 as at August 31, 2015, loss of $504,088 for the fiscal year 2015 compared to an income of $218,825 for the fiscal year 2014, and has a deficit accumulated during the exploration stage of $13,898,314 for the period from May 28, 2004 (inception) through August 31, 2015.

 

Accordingly, the Company has not generated cash flows from operations and have primarily relied upon loans from related and unrelated parties and equity financing to fund operations. These conditions (as indicated in the 2015 audit report of our Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm) raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

 

During the year ended August 31, 2015, Panex used cash of $411,646 in operating activities compared to $1,810,947 for the year ended August 31, 2014. As previously noted, Panex is not generating revenues and accordingly has not generated any significant cash flow from operations. Panex is uncertain as to when it will produce cash flows from operations that are required to meet operating and capital requirements and will require significant funding from external sources to continue its operations.

 

During June 2015, the Company entered into debt settlement agreements with creditors in consideration for the issuance of the Company's common stock, par value $0.001, at a per share price of $0.001 per share. As a result, the Company extinguished certain liabilities with creditors via debt settlement agreements for a total of $55,000, for a total of 27,500,000 shares at a price of $0.001 per share.

 

During August 2015, the Company entered into some share repurchase agreements for a total of 318,000,000 shares for USD$189,904.

 

Through May 31 2014 50,975,000 shares of common stock at $0.001 per share were issued in consideration of settlement of liabilities of $50,975 during the quarter ended February 28, 2014. In addition, 40,300,000 have been issued during the quarter ended May 31, 2014.

 

During June 2014, the Company received loan proceeds of $466,027 (AUD $500,000), from an unrelated third party. The loan is unsecured, and had no stated interest rate. The loan was assigned to Burey Gold Ltd after the successful conclusion of the transaction with Burey Gold Ltd consummated on August 12, 2014. The funds received were used to pay aged outstanding accounts payable during the quarter ending May 31, 2014. Of the total $466,027 loan proceeds, $96,027 was distributed directly by the lender to repay certain vendors of the Company in Democratic Republic of Congo. On July 23, 2014 the Company approved a conditional equity financing to raise up to $958,600 in working capital for operations, exploration and administration. On August 12, 2014 the Company issued 958,600,000 restricted shares of common stock at a price of $0.001 per share to raise the working capital. The Company set the value of the restricted shares arbitrarily without reference to its assets, book value, revenues or other established criteria of value. All the restricted shares to be issued in the offering were issued for investment purposes in "private transactions".

 

During March 2014, the Company received loan proceeds of $300,000, from an unrelated third party. The loan is unsecured, and had no stated interest rate. The loan was assigned to Burey Gold Ltd. The funds received were used to pay aged outstanding accounts payable during the quarter ending May 31, 2014. Of the total $300,000 loan proceeds, the full $300,000 was distributed directly by the lender to repay certain vendors of the Company in Democratic Republic of Congo, with the majority being license fees.

Plan of Operation

 

Panex is an Exploration Stage Company. Panex's principal business is the acquisition and exploration of mineral resources. Panex currently has no interest in any mineral resources or properties but is continuing to identify and assess viable mineral properties or mineral projects.

 

Panex has not generated any revenues from its mineral exploration activities. From the time of its incorporation in 2004 to early 2008, Panex was actively engaged in the exploration of various mineral projects that were prospective for gold, silver and copper. Since 2008, a combination of limited exploration success and a dwindling of its working capital caused Panex to withdraw from its mineral exploration projects.

 

During the next 12 months, Panex, intends to seek new mineral properties.

 

Panex intends to acquire mineral properties that management believes to be undervalued or that management believes may realize a substantial benefit from being publicly owned. Panex will continue to identify and assess undervalued mineral properties. A small number of mineral properties are presently being reviewed.

 

The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts or classification of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

 

Accounting and Audit Plan

 

Panex intends to internally prepare the quarterly and annual financial statements. The estimated charge to Panex will be covered under the existing consulting agreements with Ross Doyle. Panex's independent auditor is expected to charge approximately $4,000 to review each of Panex's quarterly financial statements and approximately $15,000 to audit Panex's annual financial statements. In the next 12 months, Panex anticipates incurring approximately $45,000 to pay for its accounting and audit requirements.

 

SEC Filing Plan

 

Panex expects to incur filing costs of approximately $5,000 per quarter to support its quarterly and annual filings. In the next 12 months, Panex anticipates spending approximately $35,000 for costs to pay for three quarterly filings and one annual filing.

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Mineral Property and Exploration Costs

 

The Company has been in the exploration stage since its formation on May 28, 2004 and has not realized any revenues from its planned operations. It has been primarily engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mining properties. Mineral property acquisition and exploration costs are expensed as incurred. When it has been determined that a mineral property can be economically developed as a result of establishing proven and probable reserves, the costs incurred to develop such property are capitalized. Such costs will be amortized using the units-of-production method over the estimated life of the probable reserve. If mineral properties are subsequently abandoned or impaired, any capitalized costs will be charged to operations.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for share-based payments under the fair value method of accounting for stock-based compensation consistent with US GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles). Under the fair value method, stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award using the Black-Sholes option pricing model and is recognized to expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period. Where upon grant the options vest immediately the stock-based costs are expensed immediately.

 

Investments

 

The Company determines the appropriate classification of its investments in debt and equity securities at the time of purchase and reevaluates such determinations at each balance sheet date. Marketable securities that are bought and held principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term are classified as trading securities and are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses are recognized in earnings. 

 

Outlook

 

The Company has no mineral property interests as of the date of this report. Certain mineral property interests are presently being considered, however it is too early to determine whether they may be considered appropriate for acquisition.

 

Material Contingencies and Commitments

 

Except for the related party management consulting agreements described in Note 4 to the financial statements, Panex has no contingencies or long-term commitments.

 

While Panex has raised capital to meet its working capital and financing needs in the past, additional financing is required in order to fully complete its plan of operation and launch its business operations. Panex is seeking financing in the form of equity in order to provide the necessary working capital. Panex currently has no commitments for financing. There are no assurances Panex will be completely successful in raising the funds required.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

Panex has no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on Panex's financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenue or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors, nor did Panex have any non-consolidated, special-purpose entities during this quarter.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In May 2014, FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09 "Revenue from Contracts from Customers," which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in "Revenue Recognition (Topic 605)," and requires entities to recognize revenue in a way that depicts the transfer of potential goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to the exchange for those goods or services. In July 2015, the FASB delayed the effective date by one year. This new standard is now effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017, and is to be applied retrospectively, with early adoption now permitted to the original effective date of December 15, 2016. The Company is currently evaluating the new standard and assessing the potential impact on its operations and financial statements.

 

In August 2014, FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15 "Presentation of Financial Statements— Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40)": Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern. The amendments in ASU 2014-15 provide guidance in GAAP about management's responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity's ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. In doing so, the amendments should reduce diversity in the timing and content of footnote disclosures. The new requirements are effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the new standard and assessing the potential impact on its financial statement disclosures.

 

In April 2015, FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03 "Update No. 2015-03—Interest—Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs". To simplify presentation of debt issuance costs, the amendments in ASU 2015-03 require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected by the amendments in this Update. The amendments in this Update are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption of the amendments in ASU 2015-03 is permitted for financial statements that have not been previously issued. The Company is currently evaluating the new standard and assessing the potential impact on its financial statements and operations.

 

In September 2015, FASB issued ASU No.2015-16 "Business Combinations (Topic 805): Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments". The amendments in ASU 2015-16 require that an acquirer recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period in which the adjustment amounts are determined. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The amendments should be applied prospectively to adjustments to provisional amounts that occur after the effective date of this Update with earlier application permitted for financial statements that have not been issued. The Company assessed that there is no impact to the financial statements on this update.

 

Management has evaluated any recently issued accounting pronouncements to determine their applicability and does not believe that any of these pronouncements will have a significant impact on the Company's financial statements.

ITEM 9A – CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

In connection with the preparation of this annual report on Form 10-K, an evaluation was carried out by Panex's management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of Panex's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (" Exchange Act ")) as of August 31, 2015. Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

 

Based on that evaluation, Panex's management concluded, as of the end of the period covered by this report, that Panex's disclosure controls and procedures were not effective in recording, processing, summarizing, and reporting information required to be disclosed, within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms and that such information was not accumulated or communicated to management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure, for the reasons listed below in management's report on internal control over financial reporting.

 

Management's Report on Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

 

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as required by Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) Section 404A. Panex's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed under the supervision of Panex's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of Panex's financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:

 

 

·

pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of Panex's assets;

 

·

provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of the financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and the Board of Directors; and

 

·

provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of Panex's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

 

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

 

Management conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of August 31, 2015, based on criteria established in Internal Control –Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO"). As a result of this assessment, management identified material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting.

 

A material weakness is a control deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of Panex's annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

 

 
14
 

 

The matters involving internal controls and procedures that management considered to be material weaknesses under the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board were: (1) lack of a functioning audit committee and lack of a majority of outside directors on Panex's board of directors, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures; (2) inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives; (3) insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of US GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements; and (4) ineffective controls over period end financial disclosure and reporting processes. The aforementioned material weaknesses were identified by Panex's Chief Financial Officer and communicated to the board of directors.

 

As a result of the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting described above, management has concluded that, as of August 31, 2015, Panex's internal control over financial reporting was not effective based on the criteria in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by COSO.

 

Management believes that the material weaknesses set forth above did not have an affect on Panex's financial results.

 

Management also believes that the lack of a functioning audit committee and lack of a majority of outside directors on Panex's board of directors caused and continues to cause an ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of the required internal controls over financial reporting.

 

Panex is committed to improving its financial organization. As part of this commitment and when funds are available, Panex will create a position within Panex's accounting and finance team to segregate duties consistent with its control objectives and will increase its personnel resources and technical accounting expertise within the accounting function by: i) appointing one or more outside directors to its board of directors who will also be appointed to the audit committee of Panex resulting in a fully functioning audit committee who will undertake the oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls over financial reporting; and ii) preparing and implementing sufficient written policies and checklists that will set forth procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of US GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements.

 

Management believes that the appointment of one or more outside directors, who will also be appointed to a fully functioning audit committee, will remedy the lack of a functioning audit committee and a lack of a majority of outside directors on Panex's Board. In addition, management believes that preparing and implementing sufficient written policies and checklists will remedy the following material weaknesses: (i) insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of US GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements; and (ii) ineffective controls over period end financial close and reporting processes. Further, management believes that the hiring of additional personnel who have the technical expertise and knowledge will result proper segregation of duties and provide more checks and balances within the department. Additional personnel will also provide the cross training needed to support Panex if personnel turn-over issues within the department occur. This coupled with the appointment of additional outside directors will greatly decrease any control and procedure issues Panex may encounter in the future.

 

Management will continue to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of Panex's internal controls over financial reporting on an ongoing basis and is committed to taking further action and implementing additional enhancements or improvements, as necessary and as funds allow.

 

Panex's independent registered public accounting firm has not issued an attestation report regarding Panex's internal control over financial reporting. As a result, this annual report does not include such a report. Panex was not required to have, nor has Panex, engaged its independent registered public accounting firm to perform an audit of internal control over financial reporting pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit Panex to provide only management's report in this annual report.

 

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes in Panex's internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the year ended August 31, 2015, that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, Panex's internal control over financial reporting.

 

ITEM 9B – OTHER INFORMATION

 

During the fourth quarter of the year covered by this Form 10-K, Panex had no information to be disclosed as required on a Form 8-K that was not previously disclosed.

ITEM 13 – CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE

 

a.

Relationships with Insiders

 

Since the beginning of Panex's last fiscal year, no director, executive officer, security holder, or any immediate family of such director, executive officer, or security holder has had any direct or indirect material interest in any transaction or currently proposed transaction, which Panex was or is to be a participant, that exceeded the lesser of (1) $120,000 or (2) one percent of the average of Panex's total assets at year-end for the last three completed fiscal years, except for the following:

 

Consultant Agreements

 

Mark Gasson and Ross Doyle are beneficial shareholders in Coresco AG (Coresco). Coresco charges $3,000 for office and facilities and administrative support and $7,000 for financial, management and statutory reporting, CFO and treasury functions, totaling to $10,000 per month. This agreement was entered on December 1, 2011, and can be terminated with 6 months notice subsequent to December 31, 2012. During May 2015 the agreement with Coresco was terminated.

 

During May 2015 a consulting agreement was entered into with Mark Gasson and Ross Doyle for up to USD15,000 and USD10,000 per month. Amounts will be charged on a need basis and it is not expected the full amount will be incurred.

 

b.

Transactions with Promoters

 

During the past five fiscal years, Klaus Eckhof (resigned on December 9, 2013) has been a promoter of Panex's business, but has not received anything of value from Panex nor is entitled to receive anything of value from Panex for services provided as a promoter of the business of Panex.

 

c.

Director Independence

 

Panex's board of directors consists of Mark Gasson and Cong Mau Huai. Pursuant to Item 407(a)(1)(ii) of Regulation S-B of the Securities Act, Panex's board of directors has adopted the definition of "independent director" as set forth in Rule 4200(a)(15) of the NASDAQ Manual. In summary, an "independent director" means a person other than an executive officer or employee of Panex or any other individual having a relationship which, in the opinion of Panex's board of directors, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgement in carrying out the responsibilities of a director, and includes any director who accepted any compensation from Panex in excess of $200,000 during any period of 12 consecutive months within the three past fiscal years. A lso, the ownership of Panex's stock will not preclude a director from being independent.

 

In applying this definition, Panex's board of directors has determined that Mr. Gasson does not qualify as an "independent director" pursuant to the same Rule.

 

As of the date of the report, Panex did not maintain a separately designated compensation, nominating or audit committee. Panex has also adopted this definition for the independence of the members of its audit committee. Panex's board of directors has determined that Mr. Eckhof is not "independent" for purposes of Rule 4200(a)(15) of the NASDAQ Manual, applicable to audit, compensation and nominating committee members, and is "independent" for purposes of Section 10A(m)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act.

 

 
21
 

 

ITEM 14 – PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING FEES AND SERVICES

 

a.

Audit Fees

 

The aggregate fees billed and expected to be billed for each of the last two fiscal years for professional services rendered by the principal accountant for Panex's audit of its annual financial statements, reviews of its quarterly financial statements, or services that are normally provided by the accountant in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements for those fiscal years was:

 

2014 - $30,000 - GHP Horwath, P.C. 

2015 - $34,500 - GHP Horwath, P.C.

 

b.

Audit–Related Fees

 

The aggregate fees billed in each of the last two fiscal years for audit related services by the principal accountants that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of Panex's financial statements and are not reported in the preceding paragraph:

 

2014 - $Nil - GHP Horwath, P.C. 

2015 - $Nil - GHP Horwath, P.C.

 

c.

Tax Fees

 

The aggregate fees billed in each of the last two fiscal years for professional services rendered by the principal accountant for tax compliance, tax advice, and tax planning was:

 

2014 - $Nil - GHP Horwath, P.C. 

2015 - $Nil - GHP Horwath, P.C.

 

d.

All Other Fees

 

The aggregate fees billed in each of the last two fiscal years for the products and services provided by the principle accountant, other than the services reported in paragraphs (a) and (b) was:

 

2014 - $Nil - GHP Horwath, P.C. 

2015 - $Nil - GHP Horwath, P.C.

 

e.

Audit Committee

 

Panex does not have an Audit Committee. Therefore Panex's Board of Director's pre-approval policies and procedures described in paragraph (c)(7)(i) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X were that the Board of Director's pre-approve all accounting related activities prior to the performance of any services by any accountant or auditor.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

Panex Resources Inc. Board of Directors and Stockholders

 

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Panex Resources Inc. (the "Company") (an Exploration Stage Company) as of August 31, 2015 and 2014, and the related statements of operations, cash flows and stockholders' equity (deficiency) for each of the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by the management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Panex Resources Inc. as of August 31, 2015 and 2014, and the results of its operations and cash flows for each of the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company had a net loss of approximately $504,000 for the year ended August 31, 2015, and a deficit accumulated during the exploration stage of approximately $13,898,000 as of August 31, 2015. The Company also has a limited history and no revenue producing operations. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans with regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

PANEX RESOURCES INC.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (EXPRESSED IN U.S. DOLLARS) 

ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED AUGUST 31, 2015



NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

1.              Organization, Nature of Business, Going Concern and Management's Plans

 

Panex Resources Inc. ('Panex" or the "Company") was incorporated in the State of Nevada on May 28, 2004. The Company is considered to be an Exploration Stage Company. The Company's principal business is the acquisition and exploration of mineral resources.

 

Going concern and management's plans:

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. Since its inception on May 28, 2004, the Company has not generated revenue and has incurred net losses.

 

The Company generated a loss of $504,088 for the year ended August 31, 2015, and a deficit accumulated during the exploration stage of $13,898,314 for the period May 28, 2004 (inception) through August 31, 2015.

 

Accordingly, it has not generated cash flow from operations and has primarily relied upon advances from shareholders and proceeds from equity financings to fund its operations. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

 

The Company has no mineral property interests as of the date of this report. Certain mineral property interests are presently being considered, however it is too early to determine whether they may be considered appropriate for acquisition.

 

During the next 12 months, management's objective is to recapitalize Panex, continue to raise new capital and to seek new investment opportunities in the mineral sector. Management believes that its worldwide industry contacts will make it possible to identify and assess new projects for acquisition purposes.

 

Panex is seeking a viable business opportunity through acquisition, merger or other suitable business combination method, with a focus on undervalued mineral properties for eventual acquisition. Panex intends to concentrate its acquisition efforts on mineral properties or mineral exploration businesses that management believes to be undervalued or that management believes may realize a substantial benefit from being publicly owned. Panex will continue to identify and assess undervalued mineral properties when capital raisings are completed. A small number of mineral properties are presently being reviewed, but it is too early to say whether they may be considered appropriate for acquisition.

 

The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts or classification of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (EXPRESSED IN U.S. DOLLARS) 

ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED AUGUST 31, 2015



2.              Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

a.        Basis of Preparation

 

These financial statements and related notes are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (US GAAP). The Company's fiscal year-end is August 31.

 

b.       Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP 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.

 

c.        Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share

 

Earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period including common stock issued effective the date committed. Common stock issuable is considered outstanding as of the original approval date for the purposes of earnings per share computations. Diluted earnings (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net earnings (loss) by the sum of (a) the basic weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period and (b) additional shares that would have been issued and potentially dilutive securities. .

 

d.       Cash

 

Cash includes deposits in banks, which are unrestricted as to withdrawal or use.

 

e.        Investments in Securities

 

The Company determines the appropriate classification of its investments in debt and equity securities at the time of purchase and reevaluates such determinations at each balance sheet date. Marketable securities that are bought and held principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term are classified as trading securities and are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses recognized in earnings. At August 31, 2015, investments consist of 1,000,000 shares in NSS Resources Inc, a Canadian listed entity which were acquired in May 2015 and are accounted for as trading securities.

 

f.         Mineral Property and Exploration Costs

 

The Company has been in the exploration stage since its formation on May 28, 2004 and has not realized any revenues from its planned operations. It has been primarily engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mining properties. Mineral property acquisition and exploration costs are expensed as incurred. When it has been determined that a mineral property can be economically developed as a result of establishing proven and probable reserves, the costs incurred to develop such property are capitalized. Such costs will be amortized using the units-of-production method over the estimated life of the probable reserve. If mineral properties are subsequently abandoned or impaired, any capitalized costs will be charged to operations.

g.        Fair Value Measurements

 

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date in the principal or most advantageous market. The Company uses a fair value hierarchy that has three levels of inputs, both observable and unobservable, with use of the lowest possible level of input to determine fair value.

 

Level 1 - quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

 

Level 2 - observable inputs other than Level 1, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, and model-derived prices whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable; and

 

Level 3 - assets and liabilities whose significant value drivers are unobservable.

 

As of August 31, 2015, the Company's investments are classified as Level 1 and there are no level 2 or level 3 assets or liabilities.

 

Observable inputs are based on market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs are based on the Company's market assumptions. Unobservable inputs require significant management judgment or estimation. In some cases, the inputs used to measure an asset or liability may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In those instances, the fair value measurement is required to be classified using the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Such determination requires significant management judgment.

 

Financial instruments, which include cash, accounts payable, and loans and borrowings, were estimated to approximate their carrying values due to the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments. The fair value of amounts due to related parties are not practical to estimate, due to the related party nature of the underlying transactions. The financial risk to the Company's operations arises from fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and the degree of volatility of these rates. Currently, the Company does not use derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to foreign currency risk.

 

h.       Income Taxes

 

The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their tax bases, as well as net operating losses.

 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets or liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the period in which the tax change occurs. A valuation allowance is provided to reduce the deferred tax assets to a level, that more likely than not, will be realized.

 

Management does not believe that the Company has any unrecognized tax positions. The Company's policy is to recognize interest and penalties accrued on any unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense.

2.              Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

 

i.         Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for share-based payments under the fair value method of accounting for stock-based compensation consistent with US GAAP. Under the fair value method, stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award using the Black-Sholes option pricing model and is recognized to expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period. Where upon grant the options vest immediately the stock-based costs are expensed immediately.

 

j.         Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions

 

The Company's functional and reporting currency is the United States dollar. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the United States dollar using the exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date. Gains and losses arising on settlement of foreign currency denominated transactions or balances are included in the determination of income.

 

k.       Concentration of Credit Risk

 

The Company's financial instruments that are exposed to concentration of credit risk consist of cash. The Company's cash is in demand deposit accounts placed with federally insured financial institutions in Canada.

 

l.         Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In May 2014, FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09 "Revenue from Contracts from Customers," which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in "Revenue Recognition (Topic 605)," and requires entities to recognize revenue in a way that depicts the transfer of potential goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to the exchange for those goods or services. In July 2015, the FASB delayed the effective date by one year. This new standard is now effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017, and is to be applied retrospectively, with early adoption now permitted to the original effective date of December 15, 2016. The Company is currently evaluating the new standard and assessing the potential impact on its operations and financial statements.

 

In August 2014, FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15 "Presentation of Financial Statements— Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40)": Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern. The amendments in ASU 2014-15 provide guidance in GAAP about management's responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity's ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. In doing so, the amendments should reduce diversity in the timing and content of footnote disclosures. The new requirements are effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the new standard and assessing the potential impact on its financial statement disclosures.

 

In April 2015, FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03 "Update No. 2015-03—Interest—Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs". To simplify presentation of debt issuance costs, the amendments in ASU 2015-03 require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected by the amendments in this Update. The amendments in this Update are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption of the amendments in ASU 2015-03 is permitted for financial statements that have not been previously issued. The Company is currently evaluating the new standard and assessing the potential impact on its financial statements and operations.

 

In September 2015, FASB issued ASU No.2015-16 "Business Combinations (Topic 805): Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments". The amendments in ASU 2015-16 require that an acquirer recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period in which the adjustment amounts are determined. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The amendments should be applied prospectively to adjustments to provisional amounts that occur after the effective date of this Update with earlier application permitted for financial statements that have not been issued. The Company assessed that there is no impact to the financial statements on this update.

 

Management has evaluated any recently issued accounting pronouncements to determine their applicability and does not believe that any of these pronouncements will have a significant impact on the Company's financial statements.

The Company has net operating loss carry-forwards for tax purposes of approximately $7,576,559, which begin expiring in 2031. The utilization of the net operating loss carry-forwards cannot be assured.

 

Deferred income tax reflects the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. The Company provided a valuation allowance of 100% of its net deferred tax asset due to the uncertainty of generating future profits that would allow for the realization of such deferred tax assets

The Company repurchased a further ten million shares in October 2015. During October 2015, the Company repurchased shares in Burey Gold Limited 20,000,000 common shares for Australian dollar 0.02/share.
