STOCK EXCHANGE RELEASE ENDOMINES AB STOCKHOLM 10 MAY 2019 16/2019

Background and reasons

In February 2018, Endomines acquired five gold assets in Idaho, USA, making the first move towards becoming a significant gold producer. The Friday mine in Idaho, USA, entered production as the first of the assets in December 2018, and with part of the proceeds from this Rights Issue, the Friday mine will be further developed in order to increase the annual production. In addition, the Rescue, Unity and Kimberly properties will be developed and placed into production one by one. These mines are expected to be in production by 2023, and the Company's intention is to increase the annual production to, in total, more than 40,000 oz gold by 2023.

Continued development of Friday

During Q1 2019, Endomines commenced the ramp-up of the Friday mine and anticipates producing 5,000 – 8,000 oz gold in concentrate during 2019, with the final output depending on the grades and tonnages mined during the period. Gold production at the Friday mine in Idaho, USA, is targeted at 9,000 oz with further expansion under evaluation, targeting more than 13,000 oz/p.a. developed and placed into production. Cash cost, depending on the mining sequence, i.e. what area is being mined at a particular time is estimated to be in the range of 650-900 USD/oz, over the life of the mine.

Exploration and start-up of Rescue, Unity and Kimberly

With regards to Rescue and Unity, the next step is to carry out exploration and development with the aim to place the properties into production. The current plan is to start production in Rescue 2021 and Unity 2022. Kimberly is planned for production start-up by 2023, and the production potential will be confirmed based on drilling results in 2019 and 2020. A majority of the Rights Issue proceeds will be used for exploration, mine rehabilitation and development, sampling, drilling, permitting and other work related to Rescue, Unity and Kimberly.

Exploration along the Karelian Gold Line

Endomines has a long-term goal of restarting the gold production along the Karelian Gold Line by using its Pampalo mine that was put on care and maintenance in 2018. This is also why Endomines intends to allocate part of the Rights Issue proceeds to continue the exploration along the Karelian Gold Line and by this increasing the mineral resources and bringing the assets closer to production start.

Scheduled cash payment for the assets bought in Idaho

During February 2018, Endomines bought five gold assets in Idaho, USA, from TVL Gold for a total of MUSD 31.25, which was paid through a combination of cash, a loan note and a convertible. The loan note of MUSD 3.0 had a maturity of 18 months and matures in September 2019. Endomines will use part of the Rights Issue proceeds to repay the loan and the accrued interest (approx. KUSD 180) at maturity in September 2019. In addition, Endomines will use part of the Rights Issue proceeds to make interest payments on the convertible held by TVL Gold. In total approximately MUSD 3.8 will be used for the scheduled cash payment to TVL Gold.

Rights Issue terms and conditions

The Board of Directors of the Company has today, subject to approval from the AGM to be held on June 10, 2019, resolved on the Rights Issue. Shareholders in the Company who on the record day for the Rights Issue are entered in the share register, will for each share held in the Company receive one (1) subscription right. Three (3) subscription rights entitle to subscription of four (4) shares for SEK 3.50 per share. The Rights Issue comprises a maximum of 47,209,984 shares. The subscription price will be recalculated to EUR for the shares traded on Nasdaq Helsinki. The subscription price in EUR will be stated in the prospectus for the Rights Issue, which is estimated to be made public on or about June 12, 2019.

The subscription period is estimated to run between June 14 – July 1, 2019, or such later date as resolved by the Board of Directors of the Company.

The number of shares in Endomines will increase by 47,209,984 to 82,617,472 shares, assuming full subscription. Shareholders choosing not to participate in the Rights Issue will have their respective holdings diluted by approximately 57 percent, assuming full subscription of the Rights Issue, but will have the possibility to be economically compensated for the dilution effect by selling their respective subscription rights.

As a condition for the Rights Issue, the Board of Directors proposes that the AGM resolves to decrease the shares' current quota value from SEK 8.00 to SEK 3.00, through decrease of the share capital, which in turn requires changes of the Articles of Association and a bonus issue to restore the share capital and restricted equity. For further details in this matter, please see the notice to the AGM, which is being published in a separate press release today.

The Rights Issue proceeds amount to approximately MSEK 165 before transaction costs, upon full subscription of the Rights Issue. Endomines has taken up a bridge financing of MEUR 1.5 from some of its shareholders. The intention is to convert the debt to shares in the Rights Issue by way of set-off. The total Rights Issue costs are estimated at approximately MSEK 10.

Some of the Company's existing shareholders have signed undertakings to subscribe for shares in the Rights Issue corresponding to approximately MSEK 16.5, representing 10 percent of the Rights Issue, and certain other shareholders have given a positive indication to subscribe for shares in the Rights Issue corresponding to another approximately MSEK 33, representing 20 percent of the Rights Issue.
