1.
NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND GOING CONCERN
Mountain Province Diamonds Inc. (“Mountain Province” or the “Company”) was incorporated on December 2, 1986 under the British Columbia Company Act.  The Company amended its articles and continued incorporation under the Ontario Business Corporation Act effective May 8, 2006.  The Company is involved in the discovery and development of diamond properties in Canada’s Northwest Territories.
 
The address of the Company’s registered office and its principal place of business is 401 Bay Street, Suite 2700, PO Box 152, Toronto, ON, Canada, M5H 2Y4. The Company’s shares are listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange under the symbol ‘MPV’ and on the New York Stock Exchange - Amex under the symbol ‘MDM’.
 
The Company is in the process of developing and permitting its mineral properties primarily in conjunction with De Beers Canada Inc. (“De Beers Canada”) (Note 7). The underlying value and recoverability of the amounts shown as “Interest In Gahcho Kué Joint Venture” is dependent upon the ability of the Company and/or its mineral property partner to develop economically recoverable reserves, to successfully permit and develop projects, and upon future profitable production or proceeds from disposition of the Company’s mineral properties. Failure to develop economically recoverable reserves will require the Company to write off costs capitalized to date.
 
As at June 30, 2011, the Company has not achieved profitable operations and continues to be dependent upon its ability to obtain external financing to meet the Company’s liabilities as they become payable.  The Company’s ability to continue operations beyond the next twelve months is dependent on the discovery of economically recoverable mineral reserves, the ability of the Company to obtain necessary financing to fund its operations, and the future production or proceeds from developed properties.
Authorization of Financial Statements
 
The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the period ended June 30, 2011 (including comparatives) were approved by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors on August 11, 2011.

2.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
These unaudited condensed interim financial statements of the Company, including its subsidiaries and joint venture, were prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). As these financial statements represent the Company’s initial presentation of its results and financial position under IFRS, they were prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 (“IAS 34”), Interim Financial Reporting, and with IFRS 1, First-time Adoption of IFRS. These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies the Company expects to adopt in its December 31, 2011 financial statements. Those accounting policies are based on the IFRS standards and International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”) interpretations that the Company expects to be applicable at that time. The policies are set out in detail in the Company’s March 31, 2011 quarterly financial statements, and have been consistently applied to all the periods presented unless otherwise noted.
 
The Company's consolidated financial statements were previously prepared in accordance with Canadian Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“Canadian GAAP”) which differs in some areas from IFRS.   The Company’s transition to IFRS is described in Note 13.
 
These financial statements were prepared under the historical cost convention, as modified by the revaluation of available-for-sale financial assets and other financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value, with the offsetting adjustment recorded through profit or loss.
 
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with IAS 34 requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise judgment in applying the Company’s accounting policies.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(i)
Basis of Preparation
The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements are presented in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Statements.

The Company has elected to present the ‘Statements of Comprehensive Loss’ as a single financial statement with its Statements of Income, titled ‘Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss’.

The significant accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements are set out in the Company’s March 31, 2011 quarterly unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

(ii)
Basis of consolidation
The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries.  All intercompany amounts and transactions have been eliminated on consolidation.  The Company’s interest in the Gahcho Kué joint venture has been proportionally consolidated (see Note 7).

(iii)
Standards, amendments and interpretations to existing standards that are not yet effective and have not been adopted early by the Company
At the date of authorization of these financial statements, certain new standards, amendments and interpretations to existing standards have been published but are not yet effective, and have not been adopted early by the Company.

The Company anticipates that all of the relevant pronouncements will be adopted in the Company’s accounting policy for the first period beginning after the effective date of the pronouncement. Information on new standards, amendments and interpretations that are expected to be relevant to the Company’s financial statements is provided below. Certain other new standards and interpretations have been issued but are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Amendments to IFRS 7 Disclosures - Transfers of Financial Assets (effective from July 2, 2011)
The amendments introduce new disclosure requirements about transfers of financial assets including disclosures for:
 
financial assets that are not derecognized in their entirety; and
 
financial assets that are derecognized in their entirety but for which the entity retains continuing involvement
The Company’s preliminary assessment indicates that this amendment will not have a material impact on its financial statements.

IFRS 9 Financial Instruments
The IASB aims to replace IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement in its entirety. IFRS 9 uses a single approach to determine whether a financial asset is measured at amortized cost or fair value, replacing the multiple rules in IAS 39.  The approach in IFRS 9 is based on how an entity manages its financial instruments in the context of its business model and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial assets.  Two measurement categories continue to exist to account for financial liability in IFRS 9 - fair value through profit or loss (“FVTPL”) and amortized cost.  Financial liabilities held for trading are measured at FVTPL, and all other financial liabilities are measure at amortized cost unless the fair value option is applied.  IFRS 9 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of IFRS 9 on its consolidated financial statements.

IFRS 10 Consolidation
IFRS 10 requires an entity to consolidate an investee when it is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee,  Under existing IFRS, consolidation is required when an entity has the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an eneity so as to obtain benefits from its activities.  IFRS 10 replaces SIC-12 Consolidation - Special Purpose Entities and parts of IAS 27 Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements.  IFRS 10 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013.  The Company is currently evaluation the impact of IFRS 10 on its consolidated financial statements.

IFRS 11 Joint Arrangements
IFRS 11 requires a venture to classify its interest in a joint arrangement as a joint venture or joint operation.  Joint ventures will be accounted for using the equity method of accounting whereas for a joint operation, the venturer will recognize the assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses of the joint operation.  Under existing IFRS, entities have the choice to proportionately consolidate or equity account for interest in joint ventures.  IFRS 11 supersedes IAS 31, Interests in Joint Ventures, and SIC-13 Jointly Controlled Entities - Non-monetary Contributions by Venturers.  IFRS 11 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013.    The Company is currently evaluating the impact that IFRS 11 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement
IFRS 13 is a comprehensive standard for fair value measurement and disclosure requirements for use across all IFRS statements.  The new standard clarifies that fair value is 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.  It also establishes disclosures about fair value measurement.  Under existing IFRS, guidance on measuring and disclosing fair value is dispersed among the specific standards requiring fair value measurements and in many cases does not reflect a clear measurement basis or consistent disclosures.  IFRS 13 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013.  The Company is currently evaluation the impact of IFRS 13 on its consolidated financial statements.

4.
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS, ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS
 
The preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual outcomes could differ from these estimates. These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements include estimates, which, by their nature, are uncertain. The impacts of such estimates are pervasive throughout the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements, and may require accounting adjustments based on future occurrences. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.   These estimates are based on historical experience, current and future economic conditions, and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

Significant areas requiring the use of management estimates relate to recoverability of capitalized acquired exploration and evaluation associated with the Gahcho Kué Joint Venture, asset valuations, reserve and resource estimation, estimated useful lives and residual value of property, plant and equipment, provisions and contingent liabilities, decommissioning and restoration provisions, accrued liabilities, the assumptions used in determining the fair value of stock options and warrants, and the calculations of current and future income tax assets and liabilities and their reversals, as applicable. Actual results could materially differ from these estimates.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
 
Details of the significant accounting policies and methods adopted (including the criteria for recognition, the basis of measurement, and the basis for recognition of income and expenses) for each class of financial asset, and financial liability are disclosed in the Company’s March 31, 2011 unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

The Company categorizes each of its fair value measurements in accordance with a fair value hierarchy. The fair value hierarchy establishes three levels to classify the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs are quoted prices in markets that are not active, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (for example, interest rate and yield curves observable at commonly quoted intervals, forward pricing curves used to value currency and commodity contracts and volatility measurements used to value option contracts), or inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data or other means. Level 3 inputs are unobservable (supported by little or no market activity).

The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs and the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs.

The Company’s financial assets as at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 are measured at fair value marketable securities which are classified as Level 1.
 
The quoted market value of marketable securities at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 was $29,680 and $23,062, respectively.  The original cost of these marketable securities at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 was $4,632 for each period.

The short-term investments at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 are cashable guaranteed investment certificates (“GICs”) held with a major Canadian financial institution.  The short-term investments at June 30, 2011 were purchased with original maturities between July 2011 and June 2012.  Given the GICs’ low risk and the ability to cash them at any time, the fair market value recorded is estimated to be reasonably approximated by the amount of cost plus accrued interest.  There is no restriction on the use of the short-term investments.

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

The carrying amounts for each of the categories are:

The Company’s interest income on short-term investments carried at amortized cost is presented on the Statement of Comprehensive Loss in the Interest income line.

The Company had no transactions with marketable securities classified as available-for-sale during the periods ended June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010.
Financial Instruments Risks
 
The Company thoroughly examines the various financial instrument risks to which it is exposed and assesses the impact and likelihood of those risks.  These risks may include credit risk, liquidity risk, market risk, foreign currency risk and interest rate risk.
 
Credit risk
 
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its obligations.  The Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk for its amounts receivable is summarized as follows:
 
   
June 30,
   
December 31,
 
   
2011
   
2010
 
0-30 days
  $ 123,551     $ 131,903  
30 to 90 days
    84,551       126,048  
More than 90 days
    -       241,241  
Total
  $ 208,102     $ 499,192  

As at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company does not have any allowance for doubtful accounts.

All of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments are held with a major Canadian financial institution and thus the exposure to credit risk is considered insignificant.  The short-term investments are cashable in whole or in part, generally with interest, at any time to maturity.  Management actively monitors the Company’s exposure to credit risk under its financial instruments, including with respect to amounts receivable.  The Company considers the risk of loss for its amounts receivable to be remote and significantly mitigated due to the financial strength of the party from whom the receivables are due - the Canadian government for harmonized sales tax (“HST”) refunds receivable in the amount of approximately $208,102.

The Company’s current policy is to invest excess cash in guaranteed investment certificate.  It periodically monitors the investments it makes and is satisfied with the credit ratings of its bank.
 
Liquidity risk
 
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its obligations associated with financial liabilities.  The Company has a planning and budgeting process in place by which it anticipates and determines the funds required to support its normal operating requirements.  The Company coordinates this planning and budgeting process with its financing activities through its capital management process. The Company’s financial liabilities comprise its accounts payable and accrued liabilities, all of which are due within the next 12 month period.  Other than minimal office space rental commitments, there are no other operating lease commitments.

Market risk
 
The Company’s marketable securities are classified as available-for-sale, and are subject to changes in the market prices. They are recorded at fair value in the Company’s financial statements, based on the closing market value at the end of the period for each security included. The original cost of the marketable securities is $4,632.  The Company’s exposure to market risk is not considered to be material.
 
Foreign currency sensitivity
 
The Company is exposed to foreign currency risk at the balance sheet date through its U.S. denominated accounts payable and cash.  A 10% depreciation or appreciation of the U.S. dollar against the Canadian dollar would result in an approximate $45,300 decrease or increase, respectively, in both net and comprehensive loss.  The Company currently has only limited exposure to fluctuations in exchange rates between the Canadian and U.S. dollar as almost all of its operations are located in Canada.  Accordingly, the Company has not employed any currency hedging programs during the current period.
 
Interest rate sensitivity
 
The Company has no significant exposure at June 30, 2011 or December 31, 2010 to interest rate risk through its financial instruments.  The short-term investments are at fixed rates of interest that do not fluctuate during the remaining term.  The Company has no interest-bearing debt.

INTEREST IN GAHCHO KUE JOINT VENTURE
 
The Company holds a 49% interest in the Gahcho Kué Joint Venture located in the Northwest Territories, Canada, and De Beers Canada holds the remaining 51% interest.  The joint venture between the Company and De Beers Canada is governed by an agreement entered into on July 3, 2009 (the “2009 Agreement”).  The Company considers that the Gahcho Kué Joint Venture is a related party under IAS 24 - Related Parties.

The 2009 Agreement’s provision for consensus decision-making for material strategic and operating decisions provides the Company with joint control for the Gahcho Kué Project (the “Project”) with De Beers Canada, and the Company accounts for the Project as a joint venture in accordance with IAS 31 - Interests in Joint Ventures.  Accordingly, the Company has determined its proportionate share (49%) of the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of the joint venture, and recorded them in its consolidated financial statements effective July 4, 2009.

Under a previous agreement (the “2002 Agreement”) in effect until July 3, 2009, De Beers Canada carried all costs incurred by the Project, and De Beers Canada had no recourse to the Company for repayment of funds until, and unless, the Project was built, in production, and generating net cash flows.

On July 3, 2009, the Company entered the 2009 Agreement with De Beers Canada (jointly, the “Participants”) under which:
 
(a)
The Participants’ continuing interests in the Gahcho Kué Project will be Mountain Province 49% and De Beers Canada 51%, with the Company’s interest no longer subject to the dilution provisions in the 2002 Agreement except for normal dilution provisions which are applicable to both Participants;
 
(b)
Each Participant will market their own proportionate share of diamond production in accordance with their participating interest;
 
(c)
Each Participant will contribute their proportionate share to the future project development costs;
 
(d)
Material strategic and operating decisions will be made by consensus of the Participants as long as each Participant has a participating interest of 40% or more;
 
(e)
The Participants have agreed that the sunk historic costs to the period ending on December 31, 2008 will be reduced and limited to $120,000,000;
 
(f)
The Company will repay De Beers Canada $59 million (representing 49% of an agreed sum of $120,000,000) in settlement of the Company’s share of the agreed historic sunk costs on the following schedule:
 
$200,000 on execution of the 2009 Agreement (the Company’s contribution to the 2009 Joint Venture expenses to date of execution of the 2009 Agreement - paid; expensed and included in the opening deficit at January 1, 2010);
 
Up to $5,100,000 in respect of De Beers Canada’s share of the costs of the feasibility study; ($4,366,362 to March 31, 2011, included in “Interest in Gahcho Kué Joint Venture”);
 
$10 million upon the completion of a feasibility study with at least a 15% IRR and approval of the necessary development work for a mine (as defined in the 2009 Agreement) (paid March 15, 2011 pending Gahcho Kué Joint Venture Management Committee’s approval for the necessary development work which was approved in June 2011);
 
$10,000,000 following the issuance of the construction and operating permits;
 
$10,000,000 following the commencement of commercial production; and
 
The balance of approximately $24.4 million within 18 months following commencement of commercial production.

Since these payments are contingent on certain events occurring, and/or work being completed, they will be recorded as the payments become due or are made.  As these contingent payments are made, they are being capitalized to Interest in Gahcho Kué Joint Venture as “acquired exploration and evaluation”.

During the Company’s fiscal year ended March 31, 2008, the Company acquired Camphor Ventures Inc., whose principal asset was its 4.9% interest in the Gahcho Kué Joint Venture, which resulted in the Company’s 49% interest in the Gahcho Kué Joint Venture.  The Company has recorded the cost of this purchase as “Interest in Gahcho Kué Joint Venture” on its balance sheet at the net purchase price of $26,268,792.

iii.
Stock Options
 
The Company, through its Board of Directors and shareholders, adopted a stock option plan (the “Plan”) which, among other things, allows for the maximum number of shares that may be reserved for issuance under the Plan to be 10% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares at the time of the grant. The Board of Directors has the authority and discretion to grant stock option awards within the limits identified in the Plan, which includes provisions limiting the issuance of options to insiders and significant shareholders to maximums identified in the Plan.

The aggregate maximum number of shares pursuant to options granted under the Plan will not exceed 6,309,774 shares, and as at June 30, 2011, there were 5,195,139 shares available to be issued under the Plan. All stock options are settled by issuance of common shares.

CAPITAL MANAGEMENT
 
The Company considers its capital structure to consist of share capital, contributed surplus, options and warrants. The Company manages its capital structure and makes adjustments to it, in order to have the funds available to support the acquisition, exploration and development of mineral properties.  The Board of Directors does not establish quantitative return on capital criteria for management, but rather relies on the expertise of the Company’s management to sustain future development of the business.

The Company’s main property, Gahcho Kué, is in the development and permitting stage, and as such the Company is dependent on external equity financing to fund its activities.  In order to carry out the planned management of our properties and pay for administrative costs, the Company will spend its existing working capital and raise additional amounts as needed.

Management reviews its capital management approach on an ongoing basis and believes that this approach, given the relative size of the Company, is reasonable.

The Company’s capital for the reporting periods is summarized as follows:

   
June 30,
   
December 31,
 
   
2011
   
2010
 
Share capital
  $ 142,264,499     $ 132,476,036  
Value assigned to warrants
    -       1,545,926  
Share-based payments reserve
    1,115,321       1,026,302  
Deficit
    (78,778,524 )     (74,295,072 )
    $ 64,601,296     $ 60,753,192  

There were no changes in the Company’s approach to capital management during the period ended June 30, 2011.  Neither the Company nor its subsidiaries are subject to externally imposed capital requirements.

12.
SEGMENTED REPORTING
 
The Company has determined that it has only one operating segment.

13.
TRANSITION TO IFRS
 
The Company’s audited consolidated annual financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2011 will be the first annual financial statements that are prepared in accordance with IFRS, and these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements were prepared as described in Note 2, in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting, including the application of IFRS 1. IFRS 1 requires an entity to adopt IFRS in its first annual financial statements prepared under IFRS by making an explicit and unreserved statement in those financial statements of compliance with IFRS. The Company will make this statement when it issues its audited consolidated annual financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2011.

IFRS 1 also requires that comparative financial information be provided. As a result, the first date at which the Company has applied IFRS was January 1, 2010 (the “Transition Date”). IFRS 1 requires first-time adopters to retrospectively apply all effective IFRS standards as of the reporting date, which, for the Company, will be December 31, 2011. However, it also provides for certain optional exemptions and certain mandatory exemptions for first time IFRS adopters which are fully described in the Company’s first IFRS financial statements of March 31, 2011.

Changes in accounting policies
In addition to the exemptions and exceptions under IFRS 1 described in the Company’s March 31, 2011 quarterly unaudited condensed interim financial statements, the following narratives explain the significant differences between the previous historical Canadian GAAP accounting policies and the current IFRS policies applied by the Company.

1.
Exploration and evaluation

Under IFRS, the Company’s policy is to expense exploration and evaluation costs as incurred until such time as the Company expects that mineral resources will be converted to mineral reserves within a reasonable period. As well, the Company capitalizes acquired evaluation and exploration costs.  It also capitalizes the historic agreed sunk cost repayments as they become due (see Note 7).

Upon conversion of the mineral resources to mineral reserves, and a decision to develop the project, any capitalized exploration and evaluation costs are transferred to capitalized development costs within property, plant and equipment, and/or intangible assets as appropriate.

Under Canadian GAAP, the Company’s exploration and evaluation costs incurred prior to establishing proven and probable reserves for an exploration property or to expand existing properties were capitalized as exploration and evaluation assets. Under Canadian GAAP, acquired exploration and evaluation assets capitalized included a gross-up for future income taxes payable.

On transition to IFRS, in the opening balance sheet, the change in accounting policy resulted in a reduction of assets (excluding reversal of the future income tax liability inclusion of $6,131,529), and an increase in the opening deficit of $34,775,176.  The impact of reducing the assets and increasing the deficit was $38,400,537 as at June 30, 2010.

2.
Income Taxes

Under IFRS, there is no gross-up on acquired exploration and evaluation assets for their associated future income tax liability.  On transition, the change in accounting policy resulted in a reduction of assets of $6,131,529 (as above), and a corresponding reduction in future income tax liability of $6,131,529.  Future income tax recoveries recorded prior to the Transition Date in the amount of $954,648 were reversed from their impacts on the Company’s future income tax liability under Canadian GAAP, and their resulting increase in the Company’s deficit.  $267,031 of tax recoveries were reversed for the six months ended June 30, 2010 ($173,506 for the three months ended June 30, 2010).

3.
Changes in existing decommissioning and restoration liability
 
The decommissioning and restoration liability was calculated as at the Transition Date, and revalued as at December 31, 2010 for changes in undiscounted, uninflated cash flows, and other assumptions.

Under IAS 37, the estimated cash flows related to the decommissioning and restoration liability have been risk adjusted, therefore, the provision has been discounted at a risk-free rate of 1.53% based on Bank of Canada real return bond rates at the Transition Date.

This resulted in a $3,083,213 increase to the decommissioning liability with a corresponding increase to the Company’s Interest in Gahcho Kué Joint Venture as at the Transition Date, with a $135,299 reduction in liability for the six months ended June 30, 2010 ($68,024 for the three months ended June 30, 2010).

4.
Depreciation expense

Under Canadian GAAP, the depreciation associated with the Company’s proportionate share of fixed assets was capitalized to the Company’s Interest in Gahcho Kué Joint Venture. Under IFRS, the depreciation is expensed.

There is no impact on the Company’s deficit at the Transition Date since the related fixed assets were not yet depreciated.  For the year ended December 31, 2010, there was a resulting increase in the deficit of $8,820.  Of this, $4,410 related to the six month period ending June 30, 2010 ($2,205 for the three months ended June 30, 2010).

5.
Presentation Reclassifications

Under IFRS, the Company has included interest expense relating to its decommissioning and restoration liability as other expenses.  As well, under IFRS, for cash flow purposes, the Company considers interest income received on investments of its excess cash to be investing activities for cash flow purposes.   Under Canadian GAAP, the interest income received was recorded as an operating activity.
