c) Denarius

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, Denarius Metals Corp. ("Denarius") completed the following equity offerings:

  • a rights offering whereby the Company participated for less than its pro rata ownership interest and acquired 3,750,000 common shares in Denarius for cash consideration of $1.1 million, decreasing its equity interest in Denarius to approximately 24.9%; and
  • a private placement in which the Company did not participate in, decreasing its equity investment in Denarius to approximately 17.2% as at September 30, 2023 (December 31, 2022 – 31.8%).

As a result of the reduced ownership percentage, the Company concluded that it no longer had significant influence in the investee, and therefore, discontinued accounting for the investment using the equity method from April 4, 2023, being the date of the completion of the private placement and began carrying the investment at fair value through profit or loss. The Company recorded a loss on discontinuation of the equity method of $10.0 million and reclassified the fair value of the Denarius investment of $3.4 million to other financial assets. The loss was calculated as the difference between the fair value of Aris Mining's retained interest and the carrying amount of the investment in Denarius at the date the equity method was discontinued, including a $2.4 million loss previously recognized in other comprehensive income that was reclassified to profit and loss on discontinuation of the equity method.

The Company's investment in Denarius is carried at $2.9 million at September 30, 2023. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recognized a loss of $(1.2) million and $(0.4) million, respectively, in gain (loss) on financial instruments related to the change in fair value of the investment in the period (three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 - $nil and $nil, respectively).

Subsequent to September 30, 2023, the Company subscribed for C$5.0 million of convertible debentures issued by Denarius ("Denarius Debenture"). The Denarius Debenture is due, in cash, on October 19, 2028 and may be converted at the Company's sole discretion into common shares of Denarius at a conversion price of C$0.45 per share. The Denarius Debenture will pay interest monthly at a rate of 12.0% per annum and also pay quarterly in cash an amount equal to the Gold Premium (as defined below) multiplied by the principal amount of the Denarius Debenture. The Gold Premium is calculated as the percentage equal to (i) 25% of the amount, if any, by which the London P.M. Fix exceeds $1,800 per ounce, divided by (ii) $1,800.

a) Reclamation and rehabilitation provision

As of September 30, 2023, the Company estimated the undiscounted costs to be incurred with respect to future mine closure and reclamation activities related to the existing mining operation of the Marmato Upper Mine within its Zona Baja mining license to be COP 24.1 billion (December 31, 2022 – COP 24.1 billion), equivalent to $5.9 million at the September 30, 2023 exchange rate (December 31, 2022 - $5.0 million).

As of September 30, 2023, the Company estimated the undiscounted costs to be incurred with respect to future mine closure and reclamation activities related to the existing mining operation of the Segovia Operations to be COP 61.4 billion (December 31, 2022 – COP 64.9 billion), equivalent to $15.1 million at the September 30, 2023 exchange rate (December 31, 2022 - $13.5 million).

11. Provisions (cont.)

b) Environmental fees

The Company's mining and exploration activities are subject to Colombian laws and regulations governing the protection of the environment. Colombian regulations provide for fees applicable to entities discharging effluents to river basins. The local environmental authority in Segovia has issued two resolutions assessing fees totaling COP 34.6 billion ($8.5 million), which the Company is disputing. The Company has a provision in the amount of COP 20.8 billion ($5.1 million) related to the present value of its best estimate of the potential liability for these fees (December 31, 2022 – COP 13.7 billion equivalent to $2.8 million). Refer to the annual financial statements for full details on potential environmental fees.

c) Health plan obligations

The health plan obligation of COP 46.1 billion (approximately $11.4 million) is based on an actuarial report prepared as at December 31, 2022 with an inflation rate of 11.1% and a discount rate of 15.5%. The Company is currently paying approximately COP 0.2 billion (approximately less than $0.1 million) monthly to fund the obligatory health plan contributions. At September 30, 2023, noncurrent cash in trust includes approximately $0.6 million deposited in a restricted cash account as security against this obligation (December 31, 2022 - $0.6 million).

d) Claims

In the ordinary course of business, the Company is involved in and potentially subject to legal actions and proceedings. The Company records provisions for such claims when considered material and an outflow of resources is considered probable.

The Company is subject to tax audits from various tax authorities on an ongoing basis. As a result, from time to time, tax authorities may disagree with the positions and conclusions taken by the Company in its tax filings or legislation could be amended or interpretations of current legislation could change, and any of these events could lead to reassessments. The Company records provisions for such claims when an outflow of resources is considered probable. No such provisions have been recorded by the Company.

As part of the Aris Acquisition, the Company acquired the deferred revenue associated with Aris Gold's Precious Metals Purchase Agreement (the "Marmato PMPA") with WPMI. Under the terms of the agreement, the remaining $122.0 million receivable under the Marmato PMPA will be received in three installments as the development of the Lower Mine progresses. The key terms of the Marmato PMPA are summarized in the annual financial statements.

The contract will be settled by the Company delivering precious metal credits to WPMI. The Company recorded the deposit received as deferred revenue and recognizes amounts in revenue as gold and silver are delivered under the PMPA. Each period management estimates the cumulative amount of the deferred revenue obligation that has been satisfied and, therefore, recognised as revenue. Accretion will be capitalized during the development of the Marmato Lower Mine (Note 8).

Diluted earnings per share amounts are calculated by adjusting the basic earnings per share to take into account the after-tax effect of interest and other finance costs associated with dilutive convertible debentures as if they were converted at the beginning of the period, and the effects of potentially dilutive stock options and share purchase warrants calculated using the treasury stock method. When the impact of potentially dilutive securities increases the earnings per share or decreases the loss per share, they are excluded for purposes of the calculation of diluted earnings per share.

The following table lists the number of warrants, stock options and the Convertible Debenture which were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share. Instruments were excluded because either the instruments were not vested, the exercise prices exceeded the average market value of the common shares or the impact of including the in the money securities were antidilutive to EPS in the period ended September 30, 2023.

14. Financial Risk Management

The nature of the acquisition, exploration, development and operation of gold properties exposes the Company to risks associated with fluctuations in commodity prices, foreign currency exchange rates and credit risk. The Company may at times enter into risk management contracts to mitigate these risks. It is the Company's policy that no speculative trading in derivatives shall be undertaken.

a) Financial instrument risk

Financial instruments measured at fair value are classified into one of three levels in the fair value hierarchy according to the relative reliability of the inputs used to estimate the fair values. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are:

  • 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.

The fair values of the Company's cash and cash equivalents, cash in trust, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and Soto Norte deferred payment approximate their carrying values due to their short-term nature.

The Senior Unsecured Notes are recognized at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method. An observable fair value of the Company's Senior Unsecured Notes have been assessed using the trading value of the bonds on the Singapore exchange which indicate a fair market value of $236.0 million.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements

14. Financial Risk Management (cont.)

Financial liabilities measured at FVTPL on a recurring basis include the warrant derivative liabilities, the DSU payable, PSU payable, the Convertible Debenture and Gold Notes which are measured at their fair value at the end of each reporting period. The levels in the fair value hierarchy into which the Company's financial assets and liabilities are recognized in the statements of financial position at fair value are categorized as follows:

September 30, 2023 December 31, 2022
Level 1 Level 2 Level 1 Level 2
Gold Notes (Note 10b) $ — $ 61,495 $ — $ 67,145
Warrant liabilities (Note 13c) 11,163 192 15,360 954
DSU and PSU liabilities (Note 13f, g) 1,203 938 826 293
Investments and other assets (Note 7c) 2,884 412
Convertible Debentures (Note 10c) 12,952 13,182
Total $ 15,250 $ 75,577 $ 16,598 $ 81,574

At September 30, 2023, there were no financial assets and liabilities measured and recognized at fair value on a non-recurring basis. There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2, and no financial assets or liabilities measured and recognized at fair value that would be categorized as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy during the period.

b) Credit risk

September 30,2023 December 31,2022
Trade $480 $ 13,576
VAT receivable 27,018 30,489
Income tax recoverable 5,408
Other, net of allowance for doubtful accounts 3,243 4,597
Total $36,149 $ 48,662

The exposure to credit risk arises through the failure of a third party to meet its contractual obligations to the Company. The Company's exposure to credit risk primarily arises from its cash balances (which are held with highly rated Canadian, Colombian and other international financial institutions) and amounts receivable. The timing of collection of the VAT recoverable is in accordance with Government of Colombia's bi-monthly filing and annual collection process. The timing of collection of HST recoverable is in accordance with Government of Canada quarterly filing process. As at September 30, 2023 the Company expects to recover the outstanding amount of current VAT and HST receivable in the next 12 months.

Credit risk associated with trade accounts receivable arises from the Company's delivery of its production to an international customer from whom it receives 99.5% of the sales proceeds shortly upon delivery of its production to an agreed upon transfer point in Colombia and the balance within a short settlement period thereafter. The majority of trade receivables have been collected subsequent to September 30, 2023.

14. Financial Risk Management (cont.)

c) Liquidity risk

The Company manages its liquidity risk by continuously monitoring forecast cash flow requirements. The Company believes it has sufficient cash resources to pay its obligations associated with its financial liabilities as at September 30, 2023. The Company's undiscounted commitments, including interest, at September 30, 2023 are as follows:

Less than 1 year 1 to 3 years 4 to 5 years Over 5 years Total
Trade, tax and other payables $58,159 $ — $ — $ — $ 58,159

Total $104,854 $ 109,763 $ 320,699 $ 72,872 $ 608,188

Following receipt of funds under the Marmato and Toroparu PMPA, Aris Mining's silver and gold production from the Marmato and Toroparu Mine is subject to the terms of the PMPA with WPMI. Refer to Note 12 for details on the obligations to WPMI.

d) Foreign currency risk

The Company is exposed to foreign currency fluctuations. Such exposure arises primarily from:

  • Translation of subsidiaries that have a functional currency, such as COP, which differ from the USD functional currency of the Company. The impact of such exposure is recorded through other comprehensive income (loss).
  • Translation of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies, such as the Canadian dollar ("C$") and Guyanese Dollar ("GYD"). The impact of such exposure is recorded in the consolidated statement of income (loss).

The Company monitors its exposure to foreign currency risks arising from foreign currency balances and transactions. To reduce its foreign currency exposure associated with these balances and transactions, the Company may enter foreign currency derivatives to manage such risks. In 2022 and 2021, the Company did not utilize derivative financial instruments to manage this risk.

The following table summarizes the Company's net financial assets and liabilities denominated in Canadian dollars, Colombian pesos and Guyanese dollar (in US dollar equivalents) as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, as well as the effect on earnings and other comprehensive earnings after-tax of a 10% appreciation or depreciation in the foreign currencies against the US dollar on the financial and non-financial assets and liabilities of the Company, if all other variables remain constant:

September 30,2023 Impact of a 10%Change December 31,2022 Impact of a 10%Change
Canadian Dollars (C$) (13,095) (1,191) (26,383) (2,638)
Colombian Peso (COP) 3,352 304 (19,257) (1,926)
Guyanese Dollar (GYD) (224) (21) (2,498) (250)

e) Price risk

Price risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of the Company's financial instruments will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Gold and silver prices can be subject to volatile price movements, which can be material and can occur over short periods of time and are affected by numerous factors, all of which are beyond the Company's control. The Company may enter commodity hedging contracts from time to time to reduce its exposure to fluctuations in spot commodity prices.

The Company is required under the covenants of the Gold Notes to use commercially reasonable efforts to put in place commodity hedging contracts (put options) on a rolling four-quarters basis to establish a minimum selling price of $1,400 per ounce for the physical gold being accumulated in the Gold Escrow Account (Note 10b). Gold being accumulated in the Gold Escrow Account will be sold to meet the Company's financial obligations for the quarterly Amortizing Payments of the Gold Notes.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements

14. Financial Risk Management (cont.)

Under the terms of the agreement, such hedging will not be required if one of the following conditions is met:

  • the Company determines that any such hedging contracts are not obtainable on commercially reasonable terms; or
  • the failure to obtain any such hedging contracts would not reasonably be expected to materially adversely impact the ability of the Company to satisfy its obligations to make the quarterly Amortizing Payments.

As at September 30, 2023 the Company had no outstanding commodity hedging contracts in place.

21. Segment Disclosures

Reportable segments are consistent with the geographic regions in which the Company's projects are located. In determining the Company's segment structure, the basis on which management reviews the financial and operational performance was considered and whether any of the Company's mining operations share similar economic, operational and regulatory characteristics. The Company considers its Segovia Operations and Marmato Mine in Colombia, its Toroparu Project in Guyana, its Soto Norte Project in Colombia and its corporate functions in Canada and Panama as its reportable segments.
