NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.

Basis of Presentation


The unaudited financial statements have been prepared by the Company in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information, as well as the instructions to Form 10-QSB.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of the Company’s management, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the interim financial statements have been included.  Operating results for the six-month period ended June 30, 2006, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2006.  


For further information refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2005.  


Net Loss Per Share


Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, “Earnings per Share,” requires dual presentation of basic earnings per share (“EPS”) and diluted EPS on the face of all income statements issued after December 15, 1997, for all entities with complex capital structures.  Basic EPS is computed as net income divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period.  Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur from common shares issuable through stock options, warrants, and other convertible securities.  For the periods ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, the effect of the Company’s outstanding options and common stock equivalents would have been anti-dilutive.  Accordingly, only basic EPS is presented.  At June 30, 2006, the Company had 225,000 stock options outstanding, that if exercised would be dilutive in a future period’s income.


2.

Description of Business


Thunder Mountain Gold, Inc. (“Thunder Mountain” or “The Company”) was originally incorporated under the laws of the State of Idaho on November 9, 1935, under the name of Montgomery Mines, Inc.  In April, 1978, the Montgomery Mines Corporation was obtained by a group of the Thunder Mountain property holders and changed its name to Thunder Mountain Gold, Inc., with the primary goal to further develop their holdings in the Thunder Mountain Mining District, Valley County, Idaho.  Thunder Mountain Gold, Inc., takes its name from the Thunder Mountain Mining District in Valley County, Idaho, where its principal lode mining claims were located.  In recent years the Company’s activities have been restricted to maintaining its property position and exploration activities.  During 2005, the Company sold its holdings in Idaho, and continued its exploration activities.  


3.

Adoption of New Accounting Principle


On January 1, 2006, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment,” (“SFAS 123(R)”) which requires the measurement of the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of an equity instrument based on the grant-date fair value of the award.  SFAS 123(R) supersedes previous accounting guidance under the intrinsic value method prescribed by Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (“APB 25”).  


The Company adopted SFAS 123(R) using the modified prospective transition method, which requires the application of the accounting standard as of January 1, 2006.  There was no impact on the financial statements as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2006, as a result of the adoption of SFAS 123(R).  In accordance with the modified prospective transition method, the financial statements for prior periods have not been restated to reflect, and do not include, the impact of SFAS 123(R).

Mining Claims


Substantially all of the Company’s patented and unpatented claims in the Thunder Mountain Mining district were sold to the Trust For Public Land on September 1, 2005, for $5,500,000, netting the Company a gain on the sale of $2,576,112.  The Company had entered into an agreement concerning the claims sold with Dewey Mining Company (“Dewey”) and certain other private parties that controlled Dewey and that were also major shareholders of Thunder Mountain.  This agreement resulted in the payment of approximately $3,300,000 to the parties, $2,923,888 of which was for Dewey’s interest in the property sold and $376,705 was for the purchase of 1,883,525 shares of the Company’s common stock.

Item 2.

Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation


FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS:  The above discussion may contain forward looking statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties.  In addition to the factors discussed above, among other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially are the following: inability to locate property with mineralization, lack of financing for exploration efforts, competition to acquire mining properties; risks inherent in the mining industry, and risk factors that are listed in the Company's reports and registration statements filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  


Management's discussion and analysis is intended to be read in conjunction with the Company's unaudited financial statements and the integral notes thereto for the quarter ending June 30, 2006.  The following statements may be forward looking in nature and actual results may differ materially.


Plan of Operation:


The Company’s regional exploration program focuses on precious and base metals, uranium and industrial minerals in Nevada, Idaho and California.  The program utilizes the talents of Pete Parsley, Vice President, Director and Exploration Manager. Mr. Parsley became a full-time employee on April 1, 2006.  Efforts focused on new as well as recognized mineralized trends in Nevada and Southern Idaho.  A consulting agreement was made with Dennis Lance, an Idaho-based geologist, to evaluate the uranium and precious metal potential in southwestern Idaho.  The potential of acquiring a well-known tungsten property in Nevada was undertaken by the Company; this was not completed however, due to partnership complications.  Although several areas are still under consideration, the Company had not acquired any properties as of June 30, 2006.


The exploration program will continue in the same areas with follow-up work continuing on some of the potential target areas.  Submittals by third parties and other business opportunities will also be evaluated.


Financial Condition and Liquidity:


As of the end of the second quarter of 2006, the Company had a positive cash-position of approximately $1,196,680 and maintained its liquid assets in a Merrill Lynch tax-exempt cash management fund.  The Company’s cash and liquid assets are considered adequate to meet its current and near-term corporate obligations.  The Company does not foresee any necessity to raise additional funds during the next twelve-month period.  Management believes that its funds are sufficient to meet corporate expenses incurred during the next 12 months.  At the end of the quarter, the Company had no outstanding liabilities other than accrued June expenses of approximately $6,050 for field expenses, legal work, geochemical analyses, and shareholder maintenance.


Capital Resources:


The Company’s only capital equipment purchase during the quarter ended June 30, 2006 was a Qualcomm satellite phone.  This phone is for field use by Pete Parsley.


Results of Operations:  


The Company had no production from operations or any revenue derived from operations during the second quarter of 2006.


The Company had a strong financial position for the quarter ending June 30, 2006, and was therefore able to undertake the regional exploration program described above.  This compares to a negative cash



6




position in the second quarter 2005 prior to the sale of the Company’s mining claims located in the Thunder Mountain Mining District, Valley County, Idaho.  


There was little change in the Company’s activities between the second quarter ending June 30, 2006 and the second quarter ending June 30, 2005.  


Item 3.  

Controls and Procedures


The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the specified time periods.


CEO and CFO CERTIFICATIONS


Appearing immediately following the Signatures section of this Quarterly Report there are two separate forms of "Certifications" of the CEO.  The second form of Certification is required in accord with Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the Section 302 Certification).  This section of the Quarterly Report, which you are currently reading is the information concerning the Controls Evaluation referred to in the Section 302 Certifications and this information should be read in conjunction with the Section 302 Certifications for a more complete understanding of the topics presented.


DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND INTERNAL CONTROLS.


Disclosure Controls are procedures that are designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act), such as this Quarterly Report, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's (SEC) rules and forms.  Disclosure Controls are also designed with the objective of ensuring that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Internal Controls are procedures which are designed with the objective of providing reasonable assurance that (1) our transactions are properly authorized; (2) our assets are safeguarded against unauthorized or improper use; and (3) our transactions are properly recorded and reported, all to permit the preparation of our financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, Our CEO and CFO have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at that reasonable assurance level for the period stated. They have also concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are also effective for the purpose of ensuring that material information required to be in this report is made known to Management and others, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.


LIMITATIONS ON THE EFFECTIVENESS OF CONTROLS.


The Company's management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our Disclosure Controls or our Internal Controls will prevent all error and all fraud.  A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.  Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs.  Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected.  These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control.  The design of any system of


7




controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.


CONCLUSION


Accordingly, the CEO and CFO note that, as of the period ended 6/30/06 covered by this report, there were no significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in our Internal Controls. The effectiveness of these controls are under the continuing review of the Company's CEO, CFO and CAO. In addition, Management has begun its project to comply with the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 with expected implementation in 2007, depending on SEC rulemaking.  Management anticipates that this effort will also help to more formally document, communicate, and comply with the Company's accounting policies and procedures, as well as to identifying and rectifying any residual disclosure or reporting process control issues that may exist but, at this time, are unknown to management. There were no other changes in our internal controls over financial reporting.
