FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements or information within the meaning of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 concerning anticipated results and developments in the operations of International Tower Hill Mines Ltd. (“we”, “us”, “our,” “ITH” or the “Company”) in future periods, planned exploration and development activities, the adequacy of the Company’s financial resources and other events or conditions that may occur in the future. Forward-looking statements are frequently, but not always, identified by words such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “intends,” “estimates,” “potential,” “possible” and similar expressions, or statements that events, conditions or results “will,” “may,” “could” or “should” (or the negative and grammatical variations of any of these terms) occur or be achieved. These forward-looking statements may include, but are not limited to, statements concerning:

the Company’s future cash requirements, the Company’s ability to meet its financial obligations as they come due, and the Company’s ability to raise the necessary funds to continue operations on acceptable terms, if at all;
the Company’s ability to carry forward and incorporate into future engineering studies of the Livengood Gold Project updated mine design, production schedule and recovery concepts identified during the optimization process;
the Company’s potential to carry out an engineering phase that will evaluate and optimize the Livengood Gold Project’s configuration and capital and operating expenses, including determining the optimum scale for the Livengood Gold Project;
the Company’s strategies and objectives, both generally and specifically in respect of the Livengood Gold Project;
the Company’s belief that there are no known environmental issues that are anticipated to materially impact the Company’s ability to conduct mining operations at the Livengood Gold Project;
the potential for the expansion of the estimated mineral resources at the Livengood Gold Project;
the potential for a production decision concerning, and any production at, the Livengood Gold Project;
the sequence of decisions regarding the timing and costs of development programs with respect to, and the issuance of the necessary permits and authorizations required for, the Livengood Gold Project;
the Company’s estimates of the quality and quantity of the mineral resources at the Livengood Gold Project;
the timing and cost of any future exploration or development programs at the Livengood Gold Project, and the timing of the receipt of results therefrom;
the expected levels of overhead expenses at the Livengood Gold Project; and
future general business and economic conditions, including changes in the price of gold and the overall sentiment of the markets for public equity.

Such forward-looking statements reflect the Company’s current views with respect to future events and are subject to certain known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Many factors could cause actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements that may be expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements, including, among others:

the demand for, and level and volatility of the price of, gold;
conditions in the financial markets generally, the overall sentiment of the markets for public equity, interest rates, currency rates, and the rate of inflation;
general business and economic conditions;
government regulation and proposed legislation (and changes thereto or interpretations thereof);
defects in title to claims or the ability to obtain surface rights, either of which could affect the Company’s property rights and claims;
the Company’s ability to secure the necessary services and supplies on favorable terms in connection with its programs at the Livengood Gold Project and other activities;
the Company’s ability to attract and retain key staff, particularly in connection with the permitting and development of any mine at the Livengood Gold Project;
the accuracy of the Company’s resource estimates (including with respect to size and grade) and the geological, operational and price assumptions on which these are based;
the timing of the Company’s ability to commence and complete planned work programs at the Livengood Gold Project;

Table of Contents

the timing of the receipt of and the terms of the consents, permits and authorizations necessary to carry out exploration and development programs at the Livengood Gold Project and the Company’s ability to comply with such terms on a safe and cost-effective basis;
the ongoing relations of the Company with the lessors of its property interests and applicable regulatory agencies;
the metallurgy and recovery characteristics of samples from certain of the Company’s mineral properties and whether such characteristics are reflective of the deposit as a whole;
the continued development of and potential construction of any mine at the Livengood Gold Project property not requiring consents, approvals, authorizations or permits that are materially different from those identified by the Company; and
cyber - attacks and other security breaches of our information technology systems or those of our third - party service providers.

Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those described herein. This list is not exhaustive of the factors that may affect any of the Company’s forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are statements about the future and are inherently uncertain, and actual achievements of the Company or other future events or conditions may differ materially from those reflected in the forward-looking statements due to a variety of risks, uncertainties and other factors, including without limitation those discussed in Part I, Item 1A, Risk Factors, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, which are incorporated herein by reference, as well as other factors described elsewhere in the Company’s other reports filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

The Company’s forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are based on the beliefs, expectations and opinions of management as of the date of this report. The Company does not assume any obligation to update forward-looking statements if circumstances or management’s beliefs, expectations or opinions should change, except as required by law. For the reasons set forth above, investors should not attribute undue certainty to or place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024 and 2023

(Expressed in US dollars – Unaudited)

1.    GENERAL INFORMATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS

International Tower Hill Mines Ltd. (“ITH” or the “Company”) is incorporated under the laws of British Columbia, Canada. The Company’s head office address is 1570 – 200 Burrard Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.

International Tower Hill Mines Ltd. consists of ITH and its wholly-owned subsidiaries Tower Hill Mines, Inc. (“TH Alaska”) (an Alaska corporation), Tower Hill Mines (US) LLC (“TH US”) (a Colorado limited liability company), and Livengood Placers, Inc. (“LPI”) (a Nevada corporation). The Company is in the business of acquiring, exploring and evaluating mineral properties, and either joint venturing or developing these properties further or disposing of them when the evaluation is completed. At September 30, 2024, the Company has a 100% interest in its Livengood Gold Project in Alaska, U.S.A (the “Livengood Gold Project”).

These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on a going-concern basis, which presumes the realization of assets and discharge of liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future.

As at September 30, 2024, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $1,746,231 compared to $1,687,690 as at December 31, 2023. The Company has no revenue generating operations from which it can internally generate funds.

The Company will require significant additional financing to continue its operations (including general and administrative expenses) in connection with advancing activities at the Livengood Gold Project and the development of any mine that may be built at the Livengood Gold Project. There is no assurance that the Company will make a decision to build a mine at the Livengood Gold Project and, if so, that it will be able to obtain the additional financing required on acceptable terms, if at all. In addition, any significant delays in the issuance of required permits for the ongoing work at the Livengood Gold Project, or unexpected results in connection with the ongoing work, could result in the Company being required to raise additional funds to advance permitting efforts. The Company’s review of its financing options in respect of the Livengood Gold Project includes considering a future strategic alliance to assist in further development, permitting and future construction costs, although there can be no assurance that any such strategic alliance will, in fact, be pursued or realized.

Despite the Company’s success to date in raising significant equity financing to fund its operations, there is significant uncertainty that the Company will be able to secure any additional financing in the current or future equity markets. The amount of funds to be raised and the terms of any proposed equity financing that may be undertaken will be negotiated by management as opportunities to raise funds arise. Specific plans related to the use of proceeds will be devised once financing has been completed and management knows what funds will be available for these purposes. As at November 6, 2024, management believes that the Company will need to secure additional financing in order to have sufficient financial resources to maintain its operations for the next twelve months. As a result, there is substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.

2.    BASIS OF PRESENTATION

These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023 as filed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. In the opinion of the Company’s management, these financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position at September 30, 2024 and the results of its operations for the nine months then ended. Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2024.

INTERNATIONAL TOWER HILL MINES LTD.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024 and 2023

(Expressed in US dollars – Unaudited)

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make judgments, 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 period. These judgments, estimates and assumptions are continuously evaluated and are based on management’s experience and knowledge of the relevant facts and circumstances. While management believes the estimates to be reasonable, actual results could differ from those estimates and could impact future results of operations and cash flows.

On November 6,2024, the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) approved these condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

All currency amounts are stated in U.S. dollars unless noted otherwise. References to C$ refer to Canadian currency.

Basis of consolidation

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements include the accounts of ITH and its wholly-owned subsidiaries TH Alaska, TH US, and LPI. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

3.    FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments.

Financial instruments measured at fair value are classified into one of three levels in the fair value hierarchy according to the significance of the inputs used in making the measurement. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly; and
Level 3 – Inputs that are not based on observable market data.

There were no financial instruments measured at fair value.

4.    MINERAL PROPERTY

The Company did not incur any acquisition costs in respect of the Livengood Gold Project during the nine months ended September 30, 2024:

Livengood Gold Project Property

The Livengood property is located in the Tintina gold belt approximately 70 miles (113 kilometers) northwest of Fairbanks, Alaska. The property consists of land leased from the Alaska Mental Health Trust, a number of smaller private mineral leases, Alaska state mining claims purchased or located by the Company and patented ground held by the Company.

Details of the leases are as follows:

a) A lease of the Alaska Mental Health Trust mineral rights having a term commencing July 1, 2004 and extending 19 years until June 30, 2023, subject to further extensions beyond June 30, 2023 by either (1) commercial production or (2) payment of an annual advance minimum royalty and diligent pursuit of development. Both requirements of (2) above have been satisfied through June 30, 2025. The lease requires minimum work expenditures and advance minimum royalties (all of which minimum royalties are recoverable from production royalties) which escalate annually with inflation. A net smelter return (“NSR”) production royalty of between 2.5% and 5.0% (depending upon the price of gold) is payable to the lessor with respect to the lands subject to this lease. In addition, an NSR production royalty of l% is payable to the lessor with respect to the unpatented federal mining claims subject to the lease described in b) below and an NSR production royalty of between 0.5% and 1.0% (depending upon the price of gold) is payable to the lessor with respect to the lands acquired by the Company as a result of the purchase of LPI in December 2011. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and from the inception of this lease, the Company has paid $459,528 and $5,273,475, respectively.
b) A lease of federal unpatented lode mining claims having an initial term of ten years commencing on April 21, 2003 and continuing for so long thereafter on an annual basis as advance minimum royalties are paid and mining related activities, including exploration, continue on the property or on adjacent properties controlled by the Company. The lease requires an advance minimum royalty of $50,000 on or before each anniversary date for the duration of the lease (all of which minimum royalties are recoverable from production royalties). An NSR production royalty of between 2% and 3% (depending on the price of gold) is payable to the lessors. The Company may purchase 1% of the royalty for $1,000,000. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and from the inception of this lease, the Company has paid a total of $50,000 and $1,030,000, respectively.

(Expressed in US dollars – Unaudited)

c) A lease of patented lode mining claims having an initial term of ten years commencing January 18, 2007, and continuing for so long thereafter on an annual basis as advance minimum royalties are paid. The lease requires an advance minimum royalty of $20,000 on or before each anniversary date through January 18, 2017 and $25,000 on or before each subsequent anniversary (all of which minimum royalties are recoverable from production royalties). An NSR production royalty of 3% is payable to the lessors. The Company may purchase all interests of the lessors in the leased property (including the production royalty) for $1,000,000 (less all minimum and production royalties paid to the date of purchase), of which $500,000 is payable in cash over four years following the closing of the purchase and the balance is payable by way of the 3% NSR production royalty. The Company has acquired a 40% interest in the mining claims subject to the lease, providing the Company with a 40% interest in the lease. The Company paid $15,000 of royalties during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, for a total of $310,000 from the inception of this lease.
d) A lease of unpatented federal lode mining and federal unpatented placer claims having an initial term of ten years commencing on March 28, 2007, and continuing for so long thereafter on an annual basis as advance minimum royalties are paid and mining related activities, including exploration, continue on the property or on adjacent properties controlled by the Company. The lease requires an advance minimum royalty of $15,000 on or before each anniversary date for the duration of the lease (all of which minimum royalties are recoverable from production royalties). The Company is required to pay the lessor an additional sum of $250,000 upon making a positive production decision, of which $125,000 is payable within 120 days of the decision and $125,000 is payable within a year of the decision (all of which are recoverable from production royalties). An NSR production royalty of 2% is payable to the lessor. The Company may purchase all of the interest of the lessor in the leased property (including the production royalty) for $1,000,000. The Company paid $15,000 of royalties during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, for a total of $233,000 from the inception of this lease.

Title to mineral properties

The acquisition of title to mineral properties is a detailed and time-consuming process. The Company has taken steps to verify title to all mineral properties in which it has an interest. Although the Company has taken reasonable precautions to ensure that legal title to its properties is properly recorded in the name of the Company, there can be no assurance that such title will ultimately be secured.

Deferred Share Unit Incentive Plan

On April 4, 2017, the Company adopted a Deferred Share Unit Plan (the “DSU Plan”). The DSU Plan was approved by the Company’s shareholders on May 24, 2017 and reapproved by the Company’s shareholders on May 27, 2020, May 25, 2021, and May 29, 2024. The maximum aggregate number of common shares that may be issued under the DSU Plan and the Stock Option Plan is 10% of the number of issued and outstanding common shares (on a non-diluted basis).

During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, in accordance with the DSU Plan, the Company granted each of the members of the Board (other than those directors nominated for election by Paulson & Co. Inc.) 88,298 DSUs for a total of 441,490 DSUs with a grant date fair value (defined as the weighted average of the prices at which the common shares traded on the exchange with the most volume for the five trading days immediately preceding the grant) of C$0.94 per DSU, representing C$83,000 per director or C$415,000 in the aggregate.

Each DSU entitles the holder to receive one common share in the capital of the Company without the payment of any consideration. The DSUs vest immediately upon grant, but the common shares underlying the DSUs are not deliverable to the grantee until the grantee is no longer serving on the Board.

DSUs outstanding as at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 are as follows:

8.    COMMITMENTS

The following table discloses the Company’s contractual obligations as of September 30, 2024, including future anticipated mineral property payments. Under the terms of the Company’s mineral property purchase agreements, mineral leases and unpatented mineral claims, the Company is required to make certain scheduled acquisition payments, incur certain levels of expenditures, make lease or advance royalty payments, make payments to government authorities and incur assessment work expenditures (as summarized in the table below) in order to maintain and preserve the Company’s interests in the related mineral properties. If the Company is unable or unwilling to make any such payments or incur any such expenditure, it is likely that the Company would lose or forfeit its rights to acquire or hold the related mineral properties. The following table assumes that the Company retains the rights to all of its current mineral properties, but does not exercise any lease purchase or royalty buyout options:

The Company had a net loss of $667,302 for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to a net loss of $710,351 for the three months ended September 30, 2023.

Excluding share-based costs of $1,096 and $67,128 for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively, consulting fees were $60,413 for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $64,159 for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease of $3,746 is primarily due to decreased consulting services.

Professional fees were $57,398 for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $104,196 for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease of $46,798 was primarily due to decreased legal services of $39,098 and timing variances for audit services for an increase of $14,348 and tax services for a decrease of $22,048.

Regulatory expenses were $59,478 for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $71,940 for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease of $12,462 is primarily due to expenses related to the preparation and filing of a shelf registration during the three months ended September 30, 2023.

Travel expenses were $16,407 for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $27,616 for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease of $11,209 is primarily due to decreased travel.

Office expenses were $4,882 for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $13,318 for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease of $8,436 is primarily due to lower hardware replacements and supplies.

Mineral property expenditures were $119,401 for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $105,479 for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The increase of $13,922 was primarily due to decreased land-related legal fees of $10,878, increased fees for Bureau of Land Management of $2,141, and timing variance for environmental baseline activities for an increase of $22,659.

Excluding share-based payments, all other operating expense categories reflected only moderate changes period over period.

The decrease of $62,757 was mainly the result of the DSUs issued on July 12, 2023 being expensed for a decrease of $66,251 and stock options for common shares of the Company issued to its employees and consultants vesting during the three months ended September 30, 2024 for an increase of $3,494.

Other items amounted to total other expense of $6,961 during the three-month period ended September 30, 2024, compared to total other income of $70,607 during the three-month period ended September 30, 2023. As a result of the impact of exchange rates on certain of the Company’s U.S. dollar cash balances, the Company had a foreign exchange loss of $22,473 during the three-month period ended September 30, 2024, compared to a gain of $46,691 during the three-month period ended September 30, 2023.

The Company had a net loss of $2,644,525 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to a net loss of $2,681,785 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

The increase of $114,353 was primarily due to prior year-end payroll accruals reversing of $82,867 and to the timing of payroll benefits of $31,486.

Travel expenses were $29,104 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $41,490 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease of $12,386 is primarily due to reduced actual travel.

The average exchange rate during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024 was C$1 to $0.7351, compared to C$1 to $0.7432 during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023. Interest income was $72,886 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024, compared to $79,737 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023. The decrease of $6,851 was primarily due to short-term investment certificates being re-invested upon maturity at a lower interest rate. Other income was $Nil for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024, compared to $10,480 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company has no revenue generating operations from which it can internally generate funds. To date, the Company has predominantly financed its ongoing operations through the sale of its equity securities by way of public offerings and private placements and the subsequent exercise of share purchase and broker warrants and options issued in connection with such private placements.

As at September 30, 2024, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $1,746,231 compared to $1,687,690 at December 31, 2023. The increase of approximately $0.1 million resulted mainly from net financing activities of $2.3 million partially offset by operating activities of $2.2 million.

Financing activities during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024 included the Private Placement, pursuant to which the Company issued 3,807,911 common shares to existing major shareholders to raise gross proceeds of approximately $2.5 million.

Financing activities during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023 included share issuance costs of $50,661 related to the preparation of a new Registration Statement on Form S-3.

The Company had no cash flows from investing activities during the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023.

As at September 30, 2024, the Company had working capital of $1,747,399 compared to working capital of $1,757,465 at December 31, 2023. The Company expects that it will operate at a loss for the foreseeable future, but believes the current cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient to cover the anticipated 2024 work plan at the Livengood Gold Project and that additional financing will be required to satisfy its currently anticipated general and administrative costs through at least the next 12 months.

The Company will require significant additional financing to continue its operations (including general and administrative expenses) in connection with advancing activities at the Livengood Gold Project and the development of any mine that may be built at the Livengood Gold Project, and there is no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain the additional financing required on acceptable terms, if at all. In addition, any significant delays in the issuance of required permits for the ongoing work at the Livengood Gold Project, or unexpected results in connection with the ongoing work, could result in the Company being required to raise additional funds to advance permitting efforts. The Company’s review of its financing options includes considering a future strategic alliance to assist in further development, permitting and future construction costs, although there can be no assurance that any such strategic alliance will, in fact, be pursued or realized.

Despite the Company’s success to date in raising significant equity financing to fund its operations, there is significant uncertainty that the Company will be able to secure any additional financing in the current or future equity markets. See “Risk Factors – We will require additional financing to fund exploration and, if warranted, development and production. Failure to obtain additional financing could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operation and could cast uncertainty on our ability to continue as a going concern” included in Part I, Item 1A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Other than cash held by its subsidiaries for their immediate operating needs in the United States, all of the Company’s cash reserves are on deposit with a major Canadian chartered bank. The Company does not believe that the credit, liquidity or market risks with respect thereto have increased as a result of current market conditions.

Our anticipated expenditures for the year ending December 31, 2024 are approximately $3.3 million, which are expected to be funded from cash on hand. These expenditures include $0.7 million for mineral property leases and mining claim government fees and $2.6 million for general corporate and administrative purposes. Expenditures for mineral property leases and mining claims government fees are anticipated to be approximately $0.8 million in 2025 and $0.8 million in 2026. See Note 8 to the Company’s condensed consolidated interim financial statements included elsewhere in this report for further information regarding the Company’s known contractual obligations.

Critical Accounting Estimates

For a discussion of the accounting judgments and estimates that the Company’s management has identified as critical in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements, please see “Critical Accounting Estimates” under Part II. Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. There have been no significant changes in the Company’s critical accounting estimates during the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Environmental Regulations

The operations of the Company may in the future be affected from time to time in varying degrees by changes in environmental regulations, including those for future removal and site restoration costs. Both the likelihood of new regulations and their overall effect upon the Company vary greatly and are not predictable. The Company’s policy is to meet or, if possible, surpass standards set by relevant legislation by application of technically proven and economically feasible measures.

Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations for U.S. Holders

The Company believes that it has been a “passive foreign investment company” (“PFIC”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes in recent years and expects to continue to be a PFIC in the future. Current and prospective U.S. shareholders should consult with their tax advisors as to the tax consequences of PFIC classification and the U.S. federal tax treatment of PFICs. Additional information on this matter is included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, under Part II. Item 5. “Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities - Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations for U.S. Holders.”

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Not applicable.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of September 30, 2024, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)). Based on the evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of September 30, 2024, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted to the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Exchange Act: (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in applicable rules and forms and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, in a manner that allows for timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

The effectiveness of our or any system of disclosure controls and procedures, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance that the objectives of the system will be met and is subject to certain limitations, including the exercise of judgement in designing, implementing and evaluating controls and procedures and the assumptions used in identifying the likelihood of future events.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

There have been no material changes to the risk factors previously disclosed in Part I, Item 1A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 under the heading “Risk Factors.”

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

Not applicable.

ITEM 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES

Not applicable.

ITEM 4. MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES

Pursuant to Section 1503(a) of the Dodd-Frank Act, issuers that are operators, or that have a subsidiary that is an operator, of a coal or other mine in the United States are required to disclose specified information about mine health and safety in their periodic reports. These reporting requirements are based on the safety and health requirements applicable to mines under the Federal Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977 (the “Mine Act”) which is administered by the U.S. Department of Labor’s Mine Safety and Health Administration (“MSHA”). During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024, the Company and its subsidiaries were not subject to regulation by MSHA under the Mine Act and thus no disclosure is required under Section 1503(a) of the Dodd-Frank Act.

ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION

Insider Trading Arrangements

During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, no director or officer of the Company adopted or terminated a “Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement” or “non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement,” as each term is defined in Item 408(a) of Regulation S-K.
