Matamec files modified of the annual Consolidated Financial Statements as December 31, 2013 and 2012 and unaudited Interim as at September 30, 2014 and 2013

Montréal, February 20, 2015 - Matamec Explorations Inc. ("Matamec" or the "Company" TSXV : MAT) announces that the Company has filed modified audited annual consolidated financial statements as December 31, 2013 and 2012 and unaudited interim as at September 30, 2014 and 2013. The Management discussion and Analysis restated report has filed.

The interpretation by regulatory authorities for the agreement between Toyotsu Rare Earth Canada Inc. («TRECan») and Matamec has necessity the restated of annual and interim Financial Statements.

Restated financial statement

The agreement between TREcan and the Company, in accordance with the practices most commonly used in the industry, has been accounted for as a farm-out agreement without consideration for the legal form of the agreement. A farm-out arrangement typically involves an entity (i.e., the farmor) agreeing to provide a working interest in a mining property (i.e., the farmee), provided that the farmee makes a cash payment to the farmor and/or incurs certain expenditures on the property to earn that interest. The financial statements of the company for the year ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, and for the period endeed of September 30, 2014 and 2013, have been restated to correct the accounting treatment of the taking of participation of Toyotsu Rare Earth Canada Inc. (« TRECan ») in the Kipawa property. The initial accounting treatment of the transaction which resulted in a gain on disposal of exploration and evaluation assets of $6,1M in the consolidated statements of operations will be reversed; the transaction will be presented as a farm-out contract using the method proposed by the mining industry task Force on IFRS. For more information, please refer to the note 3 for the annual consolidated financial statements and the note 4 of unaudited consolidated interim financial statements (Restated financial statement).

 

These notes together explain the change of the financial statement.
