(1) Silver equivalent (AgEq) is calculated using
an 80:1 silver:gold ratio.
(2) These are non-IFRS financial measures and
ratios. Further details on these non-IFRS financial measures and
ratios are provided at the end of this press release and in the
MD&A accompanying the Company’s financial statements, which can
be viewed on the Company’s website, on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.com
and on EDGAR at www.sec.gov.
Direct operating costs per tonne in Q2 2024
increased to $140.36, a 7% increase compared to $131.79 in Q2 2023.
The increase in the cost per tonne compared to the prior period was
driven by a strengthened Mexican peso contributing to higher
labour, power and consumables costs. In 2023, the Company faced
significant inflationary pressures, which have eased in 2024 but
still persist.
Consolidated cash costs per silver ounce, net of
by-product credits, in Q2 2024 decreased to $13.43 per silver
ounce, a 1% decrease compared with $13.52 per silver ounce in Q2
2023, driven by an increase in by-product gold sales, but largely
offset by an increase in direct operating costs per tonne as noted
above, and a decrease in silver ore grades.
All-In-Sustaining Costs (“AISC”) increased by 4%
on a per ounce basis compared to Q2 2023 due to the higher general
and administrative costs and higher share-based compensation,
partially offset by reduced sustaining capital expenditures.
For the six months ended June 30, 2024,
consolidated direct operating costs per tonne is above annual
guidance due to higher purchased material at Guanacevi and slightly
higher direct input costs than estimated. At Guanacevi purchased
material from local miners increased to 18% of throughput and
accounted for $5.0 million or $23.02 of consolidated direct
operating costs per tonne, In Q2, 2023, purchased material was $1.5
million or $6.38 of consolidated direct operating costs per tonne.
With higher precious metal prices, the availability and cost of the
purchased material have both increased. Per ounce guidance metrics
are impacted by metal price estimates, royalties, special mining
duties and normal variations in ore grades. The higher gold price
realized has offset increased input costs in calculating per ounce
guidance metrics. Management estimates costs per ounce metrics will
be near the lower end of the guidance range, while direct operating
costs per tonne will remain above guidance due to the higher metal
prices.
Management assumed $23 per oz silver price,
$1,840 per oz gold price and 17:1 Mexican peso to U.S. dollar
exchange rate in calculating its 2024 cost guidance.
The Company reported a net loss of $14.0 million
for the three-month period ended June 30, 2024 compared to a $1.0
million loss in Q2 2023. Excluding certain non-cash and
unusual items, and items that are subject to volatility which are
unrelated to the Company’s operation, adjusted loss was $1.0
million compared to adjusted earnings of $1.6 million in Q2
2023.
For the three months ended June 30, 2024,
revenue of $58.3 million, net of $0.4 million of smelting and
refining costs, increased by 17% compared to $50.0 million, net of
$0.9 million of smelting and refining costs, in Q2, 2023.
Gross sales of $58.7 million in Q2 2024 represented a 15% increase
over the gross sales of $50.9 million for the same period in 2023.
A 6% decrease in silver ounces sold during the period,
combined with a 19% increase in the realized silver price resulted
in an 11% increase in silver sales. Gold oz sold were in line with
comparative period, with a 21% increase in realized gold prices
resulting in a 22% increase in gold sales. During the period, the
Company sold 1,217,569 oz silver and 9,887 oz gold, for realized
prices of $28.94 and $2,374 per oz, respectively, compared to sales
of 1,299,672 oz silver and 9,883 oz gold, for realized prices of
$24.27 and $1,955 per oz, respectively, in the same period of 2023.
Silver and gold London spot prices averaged $28.68 and $2,337,
respectively, during the three months ended June 30, 2024.
The Company increased its finished goods metal
inventory to 268,020 oz and to 1,261 oz gold at June 30, 2024,
compared to 182,128 oz silver and 779 oz gold at March 31,
2024. The cost allocated to these finished goods was $6.1
million at June 30, 2024, compared to $4.0 million at March 31,
2024. As of June 30, 2024, the finished goods inventory fair market
value was $10.8 million, compared to $6.2 million at March 31,
2024.
Cost of sales for Q2 2024 was $48.0 million, an
increase of 28% over the cost of sales of $37.5 million for Q2
2023. The increase in the cost of sales compared to the prior
period was driven by a strengthened Mexican peso contributing to
higher labour, power and consumables costs. Throughout 2023, the
Company faced significant inflationary pressures, which have eased
in 2024 but still persist. Additionally, in Q2 2024 purchased
material from local miners increased to 18% of Guanacevi throughput
and accounted for $5.0 million of cost of sales, an increase of
$3.5 million compared to Q2 2023. The Company incurred
increased depreciation costs during Q2 2024 compared to the prior
period, due to lower reserve estimates at its’
operations.
The Company reported operating earnings of $1.7
million after exploration, evaluation and development costs of $4.3
million and general and administrative costs of $4.3 million.
Exploration and evaluation expenses were $4.3 million, in line with
$4.3 million incurred in the same period of 2023. General and
administrative expenses of $4.2 million were 80% higher compared to
the $2.4 million incurred for the same period of 2023; the $1.9
million increase is primarily attributable to the appreciation of
the Company’s share price and the revaluation of liability
recognized for cash settled deferred share units.
Finance costs, a foreign exchange loss, loss on
derivative contracts and investment and other income contributed to
a loss before income taxes of $11.3 million compared to $4.2
million earnings before taxes in Q2 2023.
The Company incurred a foreign exchange loss of
$4.0 million in Q2 2024 compared to a foreign exchange gain of $1.9
million in Q2 2023 due to a weakening of the Mexican peso at the
end of the reporting period, which decreased the US dollar value of
the Mexican peso denominated working capital surplus. As part of
the Debt Facility agreement, the Company entered into forward gold
sale contracts and Mexican Peso purchase contracts. The Company
recognized a $9.3 million loss on these derivative contracts due to
the increase in gold forward prices and the depreciation of the
Mexican peso in relation to the US dollar at June 30, 2024.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking
Statements
This news release contains “forward-looking
statements” within the meaning of the United States private
securities litigation reform act of 1995 and “forward-looking
information” within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities
legislation. Such forward-looking statements and information herein
include but are not limited to statements regarding the development
and financing of the Terronera Project including: anticipated
timing of the project; the Company’s ability to further drawdown on
the Debt Facility, estimated project economics, Terronera’s
forecasted operations, costs and expenditures, and the timing and
results of various related activities, Endeavour’s
anticipated performance in 2024 including changes in mining
operations and forecasts of production levels, anticipated
production costs and all-in sustaining costs and the timing and
results of various activities. The Company does not intend to and
does not assume any obligation to update such forward-looking
statements or information, other than as required by applicable
law.
Forward-looking statements or information
involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors
that may cause the actual results, level of activity, production
levels, performance or achievements of Endeavour and its operations
to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such
statements. Such factors include but are not limited changes in
production and costs guidance; the ongoing effects of inflation and
supply chain issues on mine economics; national and local
governments, legislation, taxation, controls, regulations and
political or economic developments in Canada and Mexico; financial
risks due to precious metals prices; operating or technical
difficulties in mineral exploration, development and mining
activities; risks and hazards of mineral exploration, development
and mining; the speculative nature of mineral exploration and
development; risks in obtaining necessary licenses and permits;
satisfaction of conditions precedent to drawdown under the Debt
Facility; the ongoing effects of inflation and supply chain issues
on the Terronera Project economics; fluctuations in the prices of
silver and gold, fluctuations in the currency markets (particularly
the Mexican peso, Chilean peso, Canadian dollar and U.S. dollar);
and challenges to the Company’s title to properties; as well as
those factors described in the section “risk factors” contained in
the Company’s most recent form 40F/Annual Information Form filed
with the S.E.C. and Canadian securities regulatory authorities.
Forward-looking statements are based on
assumptions management believes to be reasonable, including but not
limited to: the continued operation of the Company’s mining
operations, no material adverse change in the market price of
commodities, forecasted mine economics as of 2024, mining
operations will operate and the mining products will be completed
in accordance with management’s expectations and achieve their
stated production outcomes, the Company’s ability to further
drawdown on the Debt Facility, and such other assumptions and
factors as set out herein. Although the Company has attempted to
identify important factors that could cause actual results to
differ materially from those contained in forward-looking
statements or information, there may be other factors that cause
results to be materially different from those anticipated,
described, estimated, assessed or intended. There can be no
assurance that any forward-looking statements or information will
prove to be accurate as actual results and future events could
differ materially from those anticipated in such statements or
information. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance
on forward-looking statements or information.
