FIRST QUARTER ~~2022~~2023 HIGHLIGHTS

Highlights for the three months ended March 31, ~~2022~~2023 are summarized below and discussed further in our Management’s Discussion and Analysis:

~~Strategic~~Financial

●

We have $21.4 million in cash as of March 31, 2023, representing a decrease of $2.3 million since December 31, 2022.

●

Net loss was $1.0 million or $0.01 per share for the quarter.

●

Working capital was $24.1 million as of March 31, 2023, $2.7 million higher than as of December 31, 2022. The increase is primarily due to a decrease in mining royalty taxes payable as discussed above partially offset by a decrease in cash.

●

Total cash cost for the quarter was $711 per gold equivalent (“AuEq”) ounce (after co-product credits) and total all-in sustaining cost for the quarter was $1,221 per AuEq ounce (after co-product credits). Both non-GAAP measures were higher in the quarter compared to the same period in 2022 due to the impact of higher unit production costs and lower co-product credits in the current year (see Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Non-GAAP Measures below for a reconciliation of non-GAAP measures to applicable GAAP measures).

●

The Company’s Annual Meeting of Shareholders will be held in person on June 15, 2023. Information regarding notice, materials, and voting can be found in the 2023 Proxy Statement that will be filed with the SEC on April 28, 2023 and available at https://www.sec.gov/edgar.

Don David Gold Mine

●

The Don David Gold Mine (“DDGM”) safety program aims to bolster the overall health and safety culture of our employees.

There was one lost time incident during the first quarter of 2023. This incident was fully investigated, and corrective action was taken.

The year-to-date lost time injury frequency rate per million hours of 1.96 is substantially below the Camimex (Mexican Chamber of Mines) industry average of 4.52.

●

For the ~~eighth~~ninth consecutive year, the Don David Gold Mine earned the prestigious Empresa Socialmente Responsable (“ESR”) award from the Mexican Center for Philanthropy ~~(CEMEFI)~~(“CEMEFI”). Awards are given to organizations who demonstrate a commitment to supporting social and environmental protection programs within their local communities.

●

~~During~~In the first quarter ~~the Company purchased and processed a thousand tonnes~~ of ~~tailings material from a nearby community in an effort to ensure~~2023, the ~~proper environmental treatment and storage of the material.~~

●

Patrick Frenette was hired as Vice President, Technical Services and Steve Donohue was seconded as Vice President, Environmental and Regulatory Affairs (Michigan) to further derisk the successful delivery of the optimized feasibility study and permit applications for the Back Forty Project.

●

~~In April 2022, the Audit Committee approved the appointment of BDO USA, LLP as our independent public accountant for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022.~~

●

The Company’s Annual Meeting of Shareholders will be held in person on May 19, 2022. Information regarding notice, materials, and voting can be found in the 2022 Proxy Statement filed with the SEC and available at www.sec.gov/edgar.shtml.

●

~~$0.9 million was distributed in shareholder dividends this quarter, totaling $120.3 million since 2010.~~

~~Operational~~

●

~~Two lost time incidents occurred during the quarter. Both incidents were thoroughly investigated, and the appropriate actions were taken.~~

●

~~The~~ Don David Gold Mine produced and sold a total of ~~11,729~~10,055 gold equivalent (“AuEq”) ounces, ~~comprising 8,381~~comprised of 6,508 gold ounces and ~~265,407~~294,815 silver ounces ~~sold~~ at an average sales price per ounce of ~~$1,898~~$1,915 and ~~$24,~~$23, respectively.

●

Exploration ~~focused~~has progressed as planned during the first quarter with work continuing to focus on infill drilling with encouraging ~~results~~results. Our 2023 exploration objectives are to identify and define additional mineral resources from the ~~Arista~~Three Sisters, South Soledad, Sagrario, and Marena vein ~~system. Step-out resource expansion drilling is ongoing.~~systems.

Back Forty Project

●

The feasibility study work for the Back Forty Project in Michigan, USA progressed during ~~Q1 2022~~the first quarter of 2023. Work related to metallurgy and the economic model will continue with ~~the feasibility study expected in the second half of this year followed by permit applications being submitted with state agencies in Michigan.~~

~~Financial~~

●

~~Our balance sheet remains strong with $31.2 million in cash as of March 31, 2022,~~ a ~~decrease of $2.5 million since December 31, 2021 after investing $8.2 million in capital~~deliberate and ~~exploration expenditures. (See~~ ~~Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – 2022 Capital and Exploration Investment Summary~~ ~~below for details.)~~measured approach.

●

~~Year-to-date cash flow from operating activities was $4.2 million.~~Once the feasibility study work is completed, the Company’s Board of Directors will evaluate the current economic climate and make a decision on how to proceed with the Back Forty Mine.

●

~~Net income was $4.0 million or $0.05 earnings per share for the quarter.~~

●

Working capital was $32.4 million at March 31, 2022, $3.1 million higher than at December 31, 2021. The increase is primarily due to an increase in accounts receivables as a result of higher base metal prices and timing of shipments in March.

●

Total cash cost for the quarter was $ (121) per gold equivalent (“AuEq”) ounce (after co-product credits) and total all-in sustaining cost for the quarter was $499 per AuEq ounce (after co-product credits). Both non-GAAP measures were favorably impacted by co-product credits for base metals. (See ~~Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Non-GAAP Measures~~ ~~below for a reconciliation of non-GAAP measures to applicable GAAP measures.)~~

1. Basis of Preparation of Financial Statements

The Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements (“interim financial statements”) of Gold Resource Corporation and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim statements. Certain information and footnote disclosures required by United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted as permitted by such rules, although the Company believes that the disclosures included are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (including normal recurring adjustments) and disclosures necessary for a fair presentation of these interim financial statements have been included. The results reported in these interim financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be reported for the entire year. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, ~~2021~~2022 included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K. The year-end balance sheet data was derived from the audited financial statements. Unless otherwise noted, there have been no material changes to the footnotes from those accompanying the audited consolidated financial statements contained in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K.

Certain items in the prior period’s consolidated financial statements and notes have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation. In the first quarter of 2022, exploration expenses included both the Don David Gold Mine (“DDGM”) exploration expenses and the Back Forty Project expenses. In 2023, these are presented on separate lines in the Consolidated Statements of Operations to align with the current presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations.

5. Income Taxes

The Company recorded an income tax benefit of $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company recorded an income tax expense of $5.4 ~~million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company recorded an income tax expense of $2.6~~ million. In accordance with applicable accounting rules, the interim provision for taxes is calculated using the estimated consolidated annual effective tax rate. The consolidated effective tax rate is a function of the combined effective tax rates for the jurisdictions in which the Company operates. Variations in the relative proportions of jurisdictional income could result in fluctuations to the Company’s consolidated effective tax rate. At the federal level, the Company’s income in the U.S. is taxed at 21%, and a

5% withholding tax applies to dividends received from Mexico. The Mexico income is taxed at 37.5% (30% income tax and 7.5% mining tax), and Canada income is taxed at 26.5%, which results in a consolidated effective tax rate above statutory U.S. Federal rates. The U.S. ~~jurisdiction does~~and Canadian jurisdictions do not currently generate taxable income.

Mexico Mining Taxation

Mining entities in Mexico are subject to two mining duties, in addition to the 30% Mexico corporate income ~~tax. The first is~~tax: (i) a “special” mining duty of 7.5% of taxable income as defined under Mexican tax law (also referred to as “mining royalty tax”) on extraction activities performed by concession ~~holders.~~holders, and (ii) the “extraordinary” mining duty of 0.5% on gross revenue from the sale of gold, silver, and platinum. The mining royalty tax is generally applicable to earnings before income tax, depreciation, depletion, amortization, and ~~interest,~~interest. In calculating the mining royalty tax, there are no Gold Resource Corporation deductions related to depreciable costs from operational fixed assets, but prospecting and ~~it is considered an income tax for purposes of financial reporting. The second is~~exploration expenses are amortized using a ~~0.5% mining duty over sales of gold and silver, but this duty is not considered an income tax for financial reporting purposes and reported as production cost.~~10% rate in a 10 year straight line.

This amendmentCompany’s Mexican operations is ~~intended to prevent taxpayers from deducting works performed in mining lots as expenses for the year.~~

higher than Mexico’s statutory rate.

The Company periodically transfers funds from its Mexican wholly-owned subsidiary to the U.S. in the form of dividends, which are subject to a 10% Mexico withholding tax, unless otherwise provided per a tax treaty. The current U.S.-Mexico tax treaty limits the dividend withholding tax between these countries to 5%, as long as certain requirements are met. Based on the Company’s understanding that it meets these requirements, the Company pays a 5% withholding tax on dividends paid from Mexico. The impact of the planned annual dividends for ~~2022~~2023 is reflected in the estimated annual effective tax rate.

As of March 31, 2023, the Company recorded $0.6 million deferred tax liability related to the 5% withholding tax on funds available for transfer to the U.S. as dividends in the future are no longer deemed to be permanently reinvested in Mexico. If these funds are distributed to the U.S. from Mexico in the future, at that time, they will be subject to the 5% dividend withholding tax payment upon distribution.

As of March 31, ~~2022,~~2023, the Company believes that it has 0no liability for uncertain tax positions.

~~6. Promissory Note~~

The promissory note was acquired in the Aquila Resources, Inc. (“Aquila”) acquisition. In October 2021, Aquila sold its Wisconsin assets to Green Light Metals in return for a Canadian dollar (“C$”) 4.9 million ($3.9 million) promissory note. Under the promissory note, Green Light Metals is to pay C$0.9 million cash and deliver C$4.0 million in Green Light Metal shares once Green Light Metals goes public. The cash and shares will be delivered upon completion of Green Light Metals listing on the TSX and the shares are expected to represent approximately 18% of the total outstanding shares of Green Light Metals. Due to the short maturity of the promissory note, the carrying amount approximates the fair value, and likewise, no interest and collateral is required. Until maturity, the Company will record unrealized foreign currency gain or loss on the promissory note.

Investment in Maritime

On September 22, 2022, the Company invested C$2.4 million (or $1.7 million) in the common shares of Maritime Resources Corp. The 47 million shares purchased represent 9.9% of the issued and outstanding shares of Maritime. Both as of March 31, 2023 and as of December 31, 2022, the value of the investment was $1.6 million.

Investment in Green Light Metals

A promissory note was acquired in the Aquila Resources Inc. (“Aquila”) acquisition. In October 2021, Aquila sold its Wisconsin assets to Green Light Metals in return for a C$4.9 million ($3.9 million) promissory note. In December 2022, an amended agreement was executed (1) amending the maturity date to December 28, 2022, (2) clarifying the definition of “qualified financing” which set the value to C$0.40 per share for the common shares that were to be issued at maturity; and (3) adding a top-up provision that would result in additional common shares being issued to the Company if any Green

Table of Contents

Light Metals financing was raised at less than C$0.40 per share before March 31, 2023, essentially preventing dilution and ensuring that the total value of the Green Light Metals shares held by the Company at March 31, 2023 remains at C$4.9 million.

Upon maturity on December 28, 2022, the Company received 12,250,000 private shares of Green Light Metals, which settled the promissory note. The shares received represented 28.5% ownership in Green Light Metals at the time. After this settlement and before March 31, 2023, additional financing was raised by Green Light Metals at C$0.40 per share. Therefore, the top-up provision was not triggered and no additional shares were received. The Company’s ownership in Green Light Metals as of March 31, 2023 is approximately 28%. Both as of March 31, 2023 and as of December 31, 2022, the value of this equity investment was $3.6 million.

Under Mexican law, employees are entitled to receive statutory profit sharing (Participacion a los Trabajadores de las Utilidades or “PTU”) payments. The required cash payment to employees in the aggregate is equal to 10% of their employer’s profit subject to PTU, which differs from profit determined under U.S. GAAP. Prior to 2021, the Company was not subject to PTU payments, as it had been sourcing its labor resources through a third-party service provider.

As a result of adoption of the new legislation, at March 31, 2022, $3.0 million was recorded for PTU current liabilities for 2021 PTU payable and year-to-date 2022 PTU incurred. Additionally, $1.0 million is recorded for statutory employee severance benefits in other long-term liabilities.

~~IVA taxes payable, net is a~~A value added (“IVA”) tax in Mexico is assessed on the sales of products and purchases of materials and services. Businesses owe IVA taxes as the business sells a product and collects IVA taxes from its customers. Likewise, businesses are generally entitled to recover the taxes they have paid related to purchases of materials and services, either as a refund or credit to IVA tax payable. Amounts recorded as IVA taxes in the consolidated financial statements represent the net estimated IVA tax payable or receivable, since there is a legal right of offset of IVA taxes. As of March 31, ~~2022,~~2023, this resulted in a liability balance. ~~In prior periods, the IVA receivable balance was reported under Other current assets.~~

Gold Streaming Agreement

In November 2017, Aquila entered into a stream agreement with Osisko Bermuda Limited (“OBL”), a ~~wholly-owned~~wholly owned subsidiary of Osisko Gold Royalties Ltd (TSX & NYSE: OR), pursuant to which OBL agreed to commit approximately $55 million to Aquila through a gold stream purchase agreement. In June 2020, Aquila amended its agreement with Osisko, reducing the total committed amount to $50 million, as well as adjusting certain milestone dates under the gold stream to align with the current project development timeline. Aquila had received a total of $20 million of the committed funds at the time of the Gold Resource Corporation acquisition. Remaining deposits from OBL are $5 million upon receipt of permits required for the development and operation of the Back Forty Project and $25 million upon the first drawdown of an appropriate project debt finance facility. OBL has been provided a general security agreement over the Back Forty Project, which consists of the subsidiaries of Gold Resource Acquisition ~~CO,~~Sub. Inc., a 100% owned subsidiary of Gold Resource Corporation. The initial term of the agreement is for 40 years, automatically renewable for successive ten-year periods. The agreement is subject to certain operating and financial covenants, which are in good standing as of March 31, ~~2022.~~

2023.

The $20 million received from OBL through March 31, ~~2022~~2023 is shown as a long-term liability on the Consolidated Balance Sheet, along with an implied interest. The implied interest rate is applied on OBL advance payments and calculated on the total expected life-of-mine production to be deliverable (as supported in the Back Forty Project Preliminary Economic Assessment) at ~~the five-year average street consensus metal prices (based on the median) evaluated at~~ December 31, ~~2021~~2022 closing gold and silver metal price and is discounted at 8.0%. As the remaining $30 million deposit is subject to the completion of certain milestones and the satisfaction of certain other conditions, this amount is not reflected on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Per the terms of the gold stream agreement, OBL will purchase 18.5% of the refined gold from Back Forty (the “Threshold Stream Percentage”) until the Company has delivered 105,000 ounces of gold (the “Production Threshold”). Upon satisfaction of the Production Threshold, the Threshold Stream Percentage will be reduced to 9.25% of the refined gold (the “Tail Stream”). In exchange for the refined gold delivered under the Stream Agreement, OBL will pay the Company ongoing payments equal to 30% of the spot price of gold on the day of delivery, subject to a maximum payment of $600 per ounce. Where the market price of gold is greater than the price paid, the difference realized from the sale of the gold will be applied against the deposit received from Osisko. (See Note 12—Commitments and Contingencies in Item 8—Financial Statements and Supplementary Data for additional information.)

Per the terms of the silver stream agreement, OBL will purchase 85% of the silver produced from the Back Forty Project at a fixed price of $4 per ounce of silver. Where the market price of silver is greater than $4 per ounce, the difference realized from the sale of the silver will be applied against the deposit received from Osisko.

The $17.2 million received from OBL through March 31, ~~2022~~2023 is shown as a long-term liability on the Consolidated Balance Sheet along with an implied interest.

In 2022, the Company updated its closure plan study, which resulted in a $6.4 million increase in the estimated liability and asset retirement costs. This increase is a result of formalizing a tailings storage facility closure plan, the addition of the dry stack facility and the filtration plant, and the increase of inflation in Mexico.

(2)

As of December 31, 2022, the Company reported the liability to remediate exploration drill holes at the Back Forty Project in Michigan, USA in other non-current liabilities. As of March 31, 2023, this liability was reclassified to non-current reclamation and remediation liabilities. Upon completion of the optimized feasibility study and the related mine closure plan, an asset for asset retirement obligation and corresponding liability for reclamation and remediation will be recorded.

With the Aquila acquisition, the Company assumed a contingent consideration related to the December 30, 2013, Aquila acquisition of 100% of the shares of HudBay Michigan Inc. (“HMI”), a subsidiary of HudBay Minerals Inc. (“HudBay”), effectively giving Aquila 100% ownership in the Back Forty Project (the “HMI Acquisition”). Pursuant to the HMI Acquisition, HudBay’s 51% interest in the Back Forty Project was acquired in consideration for the issuance of common shares of Aquila, future milestone payments tied to the development of the Back Forty Project, and a 1% net smelter return royalty on production from certain land parcels in the project. The issuance of shares and 1% net smelter obligations were settled before the Company acquired Aquila.

The contingent consideration is composed of the following in Canadian dollars:

The value of future installments is based on C$9 million tied to development of the Back Forty project as follows:

C$3 million payable on completion of any form of financing for purposes including the commencement of construction of Back ~~Forty, up~~Forty.

It is more likely than not that management will pay C$3 million ($2.2 million) of the liability in 2023 in order to prevent the repurchase of 51% ownership by HMI. Therefore, this portion is presented as current liability, with $2.2 million remaining in long-term liability. The contingent consideration ~~will be~~is adjusted for the ~~foreign currency translation,~~ time value of money and the likelihood of the milestone payments.

However, in the future, there may be changes to these contingencies, or additional contingencies may occur, any of which might result in an accrual or a change in current accruals recorded by the Company, and there can be no assurance that their ultimate disposition will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

With the ~~successful~~ acquisition of Aquila Resources Inc. on December 10, 2021, the Company assumed substantial liabilities that relate to the gold and silver stream agreements with Osisko Bermuda ~~Limited (see~~ ~~Note 10 - Gold and Silver Stream Agreements~~).Limited. Under the agreements, Osisko deposited a total of $37.2 million upfront in exchange for a portion of the future gold and silver production from the Back Forty Project. The stream agreements contain customary provisions regarding default and security. In the event that our subsidiary defaults under the stream agreements, including ~~achieving~~failing to achieve commercial production at ~~an agreed upon~~a future date, it may be required to repay the deposit plus accumulated interest at a rate agreed with Osisko. If it fails to do so, Osisko may be entitled to enforce ~~their~~its remedies as a secured party and take possession of the assets that comprise the Back Forty Project.

13. Shareholders’ Equity

No dividends were declared and paid in 2023. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company declared and paid dividends of $0.01 per common share, ~~for~~paying an aggregate total of $0.9 million. ~~During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company declared and paid dividends of $0.01 per common share for an aggregate total of $0.7 million.~~

Other Derivatives

Zinc zero cost collar

Derivative instruments that are not designated as hedging instruments are required to be recorded on the balance sheet at fair value. Changes in fair value will impact the Company’s earnings through mark-to-market adjustments until the physical commodity is delivered or the financial instrument is settled. The fair value does not reflect the realized or cash value of the instrument.

As of ~~March~~December 31, 2022, the Company’s ~~derivatives not designated as hedges consist of zinc zero cost collars used~~hedge program concluded, but the Company may utilize similar programs in the future to manage ~~its~~ near-term exposure to cash flow variability from zinc price risks. A zero cost collar is a combination of two options: a sold call option and a purchased put option. The Company sold call options to establish the ceiling price of $3,500 per tonne of zinc that the Company will receive for the contracted zinc volume of 5,850 tonnes for April through December 2022. The purchased put establishes the floor price of $3,500 per tonne of zinc that we will receive for the same contracted tonnes and period of time.

Derivatives are carried at fair value and on a net basis when a legal right of offset exists with the same counterparty. Otherwise, any fair value gains or losses are recognized in earnings in the current period. The March 2022 London Metal Exchange (“LME”) average zinc price of $3,974 exceeded the call option ceiling of $3,200, resulting in a realized loss of $1.6 million. The mark-to-market adjustment on the remaining 5,850 tonnes resulted in an unrealized loss of $2.5 million, recorded in current liability.

15. Employee Benefits

Effective October 2012, the Company adopted a profit sharing plan (the “Plan”) which covers all U.S. employees. The Plan meets the requirements of a qualified retirement plan pursuant to the provisions of Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. The Plan also provides eligible employees the opportunity to make tax deferred contributions to a retirement trust account up to 50% of their qualified wages, subject to the IRS annual maximums.

On April 23, 2021, a decree that reforms labor outsourcing in Mexico was published in the Federation’s Official Gazette. This new decree amends the outsourcing provisions, whereby operating companies will no longer be able to source their labor resources used to carry out the core business functions from service entities or third-party providers. Under Mexican law, employees are entitled to receive statutory profit sharing (Participacion a los Trabajadores de las Utilidades or “PTU”) ~~payments.~~payment.

16. Stock-Based Compensation

The Company’s compensation program comprises three main elements: base salary, an annual short-term incentive plan (“STIP”) cash award, and long-term equity-based incentive compensation (“LTIP”) in the form of ~~performance share~~deferred stock units (“~~PSUs”~~DSUs”), restricted stock units (“RSUs”), stock options, and ~~deferred stock~~performance share units (“~~DSUs”~~PSUs”).

The Gold Resource Corporation 2016 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Incentive Plan”) allows for the issuance of up to 5 million shares of common stock in the form of incentive and non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, RSUs, stock grants, stock units, performance shares, ~~performance share units~~PSUs, and performance cash. Additionally, pursuant to the terms of the Incentive Plan, any award outstanding under the prior plan that is terminated, expired, forfeited, or canceled for any reason, will be available for grant under the Incentive Plan.

Effective January 1, 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors, on the recommendation of the Compensation Committee, implemented a program to issue DSUs. DSUs are qualifying instruments under the terms of the Company’s Incentive Plan and therefore do not require additional shareholder approval. The vesting and settlement terms of the DSUs are determined by the Compensation Committee at the time the DSUs are awarded.

DSUs of ~~214,357~~278,663 and ~~130,000~~214,357 were granted to the Board of Directors during the three months ~~period~~ ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. DSUs are vested immediately and ~~2021, respectively, and they are~~ redeemable in cash or shares at the earlier of 10 years or upon the eligible directors’ termination. Termination is deemed to occur on the earliest ofof: (1) the date of voluntary resignation or retirement of the director from the Board; (2) the date of death of the director; or (3) the date of removal of the director from the Board whether by shareholder resolution, failure to achieve re-election, or otherwise; and on which date the director is not a director or employee of the Company or any of its affiliates. These awards contain a cash settlement feature and are therefore classified as a liability and are marked to ~~fair value~~market each reporting period.

The Company may also issue DSUs for directors in lieu of board fees at their request. ~~As of~~During the three months ended March 31, ~~2022~~2023 and ~~2021,~~2022, respectively, there were ~~3,356~~13,649 and ~~NaN~~3,356 DSUs granted in lieu of board fees that are also subject to mark-to-market adjustment. During the three-month period ending March 31, 2022, the Company recorded $0.6 million of stock-based compensation expense increasing the other non-current liability for the DSUs to $0.8 million based on the fair value of the Company’s stock price on March 31, 2022.

19. Net Income per Common Share

Basic net income per common share is calculated based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per common share are calculated based on the assumption that stock options and other dilutive securities outstanding, which have an exercise price less than the average market price of the Company’s common shares during the period, would have been exercised on the later of the beginning of the period or the date granted and that the funds obtained from the exercise were used to purchase common shares at the average market price during the period. All the Company’s RSUs ~~and DSUs~~ are considered to be dilutive in periods with net income.

The effect of the Company’s dilutive securities is calculated using the treasury stock method and only those instruments that result in a reduction in net income per common share are included in the calculation. Options to purchase ~~2.7 million and 3.9~~1.5 million shares of common stock at weighted average exercise prices of ~~$4.08 and $7.20~~$2.90 were outstanding atas of March 31, 2023 but had no dilutive effect due to the net loss. Options to purchase 2.7 million shares of common stock at a weighted average exercise prices of $4.08 were outstanding as of March 31, 2022 ~~and 2021, respectively,~~ but were not included in the computation of diluted weighted average common shares outstanding, as the exercise price of the options exceeded the average price of the Company’s common stock during the reporting period, and therefore are anti-dilutive.

Basic and diluted net income per common share is calculated as follows:

20. Fair Value Measurement

Fair value accounting establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

Level 1

Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;

Level 2

Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and

Level 3

Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (supported by little or no market activity).

Investment in equity securities—Green Light Metals: Upon maturity on December 28, 2022, the Company received 12,250,000 private shares of Green Light Metals, which settled the promissory note receivable from Green Light Metals. The shares received represented approximately 28.5% ownership at the time. Management chose to account for this investment using the fair value option; therefore, these securities are carried at fair value. As of March 31, 2023, the value of this equity investment was C$4.9 million ($3.6 million). The value of the issued shares was determined to be C$0.40 per share, which was based on the significant unobservable input of recent Green Light Metals recent equity transactions. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, there have been no gains or losses on the value of the shares the Company received, other than some foreign exchange gain.

~~23. COVID-19 Pandemic~~

The Company continues to protect the health and safety of our employees, contractors, and communities by taking precautionary measures, including specialized training, social distancing, screening workers before they enter facilities, a work from home mandate where possible, and close monitoring of national and regional COVID-19 impacts and governmental guidelines. Since our non-mining workforce is able to work remotely with the benefit of technology, we are able to maintain our operations and internal controls over financial reporting and disclosures.

As of the date of the issuance of these unaudited Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements, there have been no other significant impacts, including impairments, to the Company’s operations and financial statements. However, the long-term impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on the Company’s results of operations, financial position, and cash flows will depend on future developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak and related advisories and restrictions. These developments and the impact of COVID-19 on the financial markets and the overall economy are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted. If the financial markets and/or the overall economy are impacted for an extended period, the Company’s results of operations, financial position, and cash flows may be materially adversely affected. The Company is not able to estimate the duration of the pandemic and potential impact on its business if disruptions or delays in business developments and shipments of product occur. In addition, a severe prolonged economic downturn could result in a variety of risks to the business, including a decreased ability to raise additional capital when and if needed on acceptable terms, if at all. As the situation continues to evolve, the Company will continue to closely monitor market conditions and respond accordingly. The Company has completed various scenario planning analyses to consider potential impacts of COVID-19 on its business, including volatility in commodity prices, temporary disruptions and/or curtailments of operating activities (voluntary or involuntary). The Company believes that current working capital balances will be sufficient for the foreseeable future, although there is no assurance that will be the case.

Overview

Gold Resource Corporation is a mining company that pursues gold and silver projects that are expected to achieve both low operating costs and high returns on capital. The Don David Gold Mine ~~currently has~~is our cornerstone asset comprised of six ~~projects with~~properties. The Company’s focus is to unlock the significant upside potential of this asset through optimization of the current operations, growing the existing resource, and identifying new opportunities near existing infrastructure. The primary mineral production is coming from the Arista underground mine. This mine supplies ore to our processing facilities to produce gold and silver doré and copper, lead, and zinc concentrates which also contain gold and silver.

The Back Forty Project, when developed, is expected to produce gold and silver doré and copper ~~lead,~~ and zinc concentrates bearing gold and silver. ~~The current feasibility study is planned to be completed in the second half of 2022 with permitting and detailed engineering to continue into 2023. The Company has~~We have formed an integrated project team to optimize the feasibility study, related mine plan, and to ensure a positive long-term impact on the environment and host communities.

This program builds on the protocols already in place and provides our operation’s personnel with a common approach to achieving our safety objectives. Current safety program objectives are focused on identification and monitoring of leading indicators of a safe workplace such as leadership in the field, regular and consistent risk assessment, behavioral observations, training records, and department safety meetings.

~~The~~

Field safety inspection underground

Under the direction of a new Mexican leadership team, several improvements have been implemented. For example, new mining techniques are being deployed, which optimize drilling accuracy, ensure well controlled blasting, and increase ground stability. Ground stability has further been improved by utilizing galvanized steel split sets. Maintenance improvements have been made to the roads, and the underground maintenance shop was moved from level eleven to level 18. While deploying new and safer techniques is a lengthy process, we are committed to ensuring constant supervision until these protocols are embedded in our practices.

Our operations are also focused on developing a mature safety culture. We have bolstered our training department by bringing in external experts in underground mining activities. We have executed on leading indicators and raised awareness on hazard recognition. These efforts are aimed at increasing safety awareness and preventing accidents.

We initiated internal and external safety audits which have identified several areas of opportunity. Our multidisciplined safety committee is focused on monitoring action plans. A recent accomplishment is that the Company increased training and awareness of potentially risky situations and is now reporting leading indicators, such as near misses. This is a significant milestone that shows we are moving in the right direction in terms of improving our safety culture.

Finally, at Gold Resource Corporation, ~~holds itself~~we hold ourselves accountable to the highest environmental, social, and governance standards. Our commitment to acting responsibly and delivering excellence in sustainability allows us to deliver benefits to all our stakeholders, including our employees and local communities. The new Mexico leadership team is already realizing improvements to maximize efficiencies and safety protocols.

The paste fill plant continues to provide substantial efficiencies by returning processing waste to underground workings since it commenced operations in 2019. Such waste would have otherwise been placed in the tailings’ storage facility. The paste fill is an effective method of reducing surface tailings and provides structural ground support that allows for more complete mining of mineral reserves.

Construction of the tailings filtration plant and dry stack facility were completed in 2021. The dry stack facilities will conserve and recirculate water, eliminate risks related to traditional tailings facilities, accelerate reclamation of certain areas of the open pitcurrent 2023 mine ~~and extend the life of the operations.

~~General and administrative expenses –~~ For the three months ended March 31, 2022, general and administrative expenses were $1.9 million, 20% higher than in the same period of 2021 primarily due to the impact of increased audit fees and consulting services related to finalizing the Aquila acquisition and 2021 fiscal year end audit.

~~Exploration expenses –~~ For the three months ended March 31, 2022, property exploration expenses totaled $2.3 million compared to $1.2 million for the same period in 2021. The increase of $1.1 million reflects the addition of the feasibility and permitting costs for the Back Forty advanced exploration project. Exploration activities in Oaxaca, Mexico remained unchanged compared to the same period in 2021.

~~Stock-based compensation –~~ Stock-based compensation increased $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021. This increase is mainly due to the equity awarded to Senior Management related to 2021 performance and DSUs awarded to the Board of Directors related to their 2022 compensation structure. Management continues to work with an independent compensation consultant to evaluate the stock-based compensation program.

~~Realized and unrealized loss on zinc zero cost collar~~ – For the three months ended March 31, 2022, $4.1 million of loss was recorded related to the zinc zero cost collar. Of this loss, $2.5 million is unrealized and relates to zero cost collars that will mature April through December 2022

~~Other (income) expense, net –~~ For the three months ended March 31, 2022, $0.8 million of other expense was recorded compared to $0.3 million other income during the same period of 2021. The $1.2 million increase in expense is primarily due to a $0.5 million increase in realized and unrealized foreign exchange loss and $0.2 million in interest expense related to the gold and silver stream liabilities assumed with the Aquila acquisition. See ~~Note 18 - Other (income) expense, net~~ ~~for a detailed breakdown.~~

~~Provision for income taxes~~ – For the three months ended March 31, 2022, income tax expense increased to $5.4 million from $2.6 million from the same period in 2021. The 2022 income tax expense is driven by the increase in net income at DDGM.

~~Other Non-GAAP Financial Measures~~

~~Total cash cost after co-product credits per AuEq oz sold –~~ For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the total cash cost after co-product credits per AuEq oz sold is $ (121) compared to $413 for the three months ended March 31, 2021. In 2022, we have a negative cash cost per ounce due to the higher amount of co-product credits we received related to the higher base metal prices realized and the 33% increase in total number of gold equivalent ounces sold.

~~Total consolidated all-in sustaining cost after co-product credits per AuEq oz sold –~~ For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the total consolidated all-in sustaining cost after co-product credits per AuEq oz sold was $499 compared to $943 for the same period in 2022. The decrease is directly related to the lower cash costs per ounce discussed above offset by higher sustaining capital expenditures, general and administrative expense, and stock-based compensation.

~~Total all-in cost after co-product credits per AuEq oz sold –~~ For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the total all-in cost after co-product credits per AuEq oz sold was $811 compared to $1,275 for the same period in 2022. The decrease is due to the lower all-in sustaining costs discussed above offset by higher exploration expense related to advancing the Back Forty feasibility and permitting activities.

First quarter 2023 compared to first quarter 2022

Sales, net

DDGM net sales of $31.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 decreased by $14.2 million, or 31%, when compared to 2022. The decrease in 2023 sales is the result of decreased sales volumes and lower realized metal prices outlined in the sales statistics table above. Additionally, treatment and refining charges during the three months ended March 31, 2023 increased by 16% as a result of an increase in the zinc treatment charge benchmark and spot price.

Total cost of sales

Total cost of sales increased to $27.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 from $26.1 million for the same period in 2022. The $1.2 million increase was primarily related to a $1.3 million increase in depreciation expense. Depreciation expense was higher in 2023 as a result of the completion of the gold regrind and dry stack tailings projects, which were transferred out of construction-in-progress to mill facilities and infrastructure and started to depreciate at the end of the first quarter of 2022. Additionally, the mineral reserve base in 2023 is lower for the units of production calculation, resulting in higher depreciation cost per tonne of ore processed. Production costs of $19.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 are 1% lower than the production costs of $20.1 million for the same period in 2022. The decrease is directly related to a 14% decrease in ore tonnes processed, offset by a higher cost per tonne processed mainly due to due to increases related to the commissioning of the filtration plant and dry stack facility during the first quarter of 2022 and ground support improvements made in the first quarter of 2023.

Mine gross (loss) profit

For the three months ended March 31, 2023, mine gross profit decreased $15.4 million or 80%, compared to the same period in 2022. The decrease was primarily due to a 31%, or $14.2 million decrease in net sales and a 22%, or $1.3 million increase in depreciation and amortization expenses.

The relationship between sales and the cost of sales, and therefore mine gross profit, is not perfectly correlated to the tonnes of ore processed. While both sales and the cost of sales are impacted by the tonnes of ore processed, other factors,

Gold Resource Corporation—Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Table of Contents

such as the grade of ore processed, metal commodity prices, and operating costs have a significant impact on mine gross profit. For example, in the first quarter of 2023, the volume of ore processed decreased 14% and total cost of sales increased by 5% compared to the first quarter of 2022 due to a 15% higher cost per tonne processed; however, sales decreased by 31% due to a decrease in ore tonnes processed and a decrease in grade of ore tonnes processed. The decrease in sales is explained by the decrease in volumes and grades during the first quarter of 2023, and the increase in operating costs is primarily explained by the increase in depreciation and increase in unit operating costs discussed above.

We expect grades to vary from period to period based on the annual mine plan. The gold and silver grades are expected to trend downwards over time toward the average grade of 1.14 g/t and 97 g/t, respectively (and exclusive of copper, lead, and zinc contained grades), reflected in our mineral reserve estimate. However, as capital intensive mine development progresses and infill drilling occurs, opportunities to refine mining methods and eliminate dilution may have a favorable impact on future mined grades.

Net (loss) income

For the three months ended March 31, 2023, we recorded net loss of $1.0 million, as compared to net income of $4.0 million during the same period in 2022. The $5.0 million decrease in net income is mainly attributable to the lower mine gross profit discussed above.

General and administrative expenses – For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, general and administrative expenses were $1.2 million and $1.9 million, respectively, representing a 37% decrease from the same period of 2022 primarily due to the impact of increased audit fees and consulting services in the first quarter of 2022, related to finalizing the Aquila acquisition and the allocation of $0.6 million corporate personnel costs from general and administrative expenses to production costs for the Mexican operations.

DDGM Exploration expenses – For the three months ended March 31, 2023, exploration expenses in DDGM totaled $1.4 million, compared to $1.2 million for the same period in 2022. Exploration activities in Oaxaca, Mexico increased compared to the same period in 2022 primarily due to increased drilling activity in 2023.

Back Forty Project expenses – For the three months ended March 31, 2023, feasibility study and permitting costs, totaled $0.5 million, compared to $1.1 million for the same period in 2022. The 58% decrease is due to nearing completion of the feasibility study and utilizing third parties only on a limited basis until after the completion of the capital cost analysis for the project.

Stock-based compensation – Stock-based compensation decreased by $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. This decrease is mainly due to the downward mark-to-market adjustment in the liability classified equity awarded, due to a decrease in share price.

Table of Contents

Realized and unrealized loss on zinc zero cost collar – As of December 31, 2022, the Company’s hedge program concluded, therefore no gains or losses were recorded in 2023. For March 31, 2022, $4.1 million of loss was recorded related to the zinc zero cost collar. Of this loss, $2.5 million was unrealized and relates to zero cost collars that would mature April through December 2022.

Other expense, net – For the three months ended March 31, 2023, $1.5 million of other expense was recorded compared to $0.8 million other expense during the same period of 2022. The $0.7 million increase primarily is the result of the $0.6 million severance expense due to the reduction of workforce and change in the leadership team at DDGM in Mexico. Please see Note 18 - Other expense, net in this Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements and Notes for a detailed breakdown.

Provision for income taxes – For the three months ended March 31, 2023, income tax benefit was $0.1 million, compared to $5.4 million income tax expense for the same period in 2022. The decrease in income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2023 is driven by the decrease in the three-month net income before income taxes.

Other Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Total cash cost after co-product credits per AuEq oz sold – For the three months ended March 31, 2023, the total cash cost after co-product credits per AuEq oz sold is $711 compared to $(163) for the same period in 2022. The increase is due to the lower amount of co-product credits we received during the first quarter of 2023, the 14% decrease in total number of AuEq ounces sold, and the 16% increase in treatment and refining charges as a result of an increase in the zinc treatment charge benchmark and spot price.

Non-GAAP Measures

Throughout this report, we have provided information prepared or calculated according to U.S. GAAP and have referenced certain non-GAAP performance measures which we believe will assist with understanding the performance of our business. These measures are based on precious metal gold equivalent ounces sold and include cash cost before co-product credits per ounce, total cash cost after co-product credits per ounce, and total all-in sustaining cost per ounce (“AISC”). Because the non-GAAP performance measures do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by U.S. GAAP, they may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Accordingly, these measures should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for, measures of performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These non-GAAP measures are not necessarily indicative of operating profit or cash flow from operations as determined under GAAP.

For financial reporting purposes, we report the sale of base metals as part of our revenue. Revenue generated from the sale of base metals in our concentrates is considered a co-product of our gold and silver production for the purpose of calculating our total cash cost after co-product credits for our Don David Gold Mine. We periodically review our revenues to ensure that our reporting of primary products and co-products is appropriate. Because we consider copper, lead, and zinc to be co-products of our precious metal production, the value of these metals continues to be applied as a reduction to total cash costs in our calculation of total cash cost after co-product credits per precious metal gold equivalent ounce sold. Likewise, we believe the identification of copper, lead, and zinc as co-product credits is appropriate due to their lower per unit economic value contribution compared to the precious metals and since gold and silver are the primary products we intend to produce.

Total cash cost, after co-product credits, is a measure developed by the Gold Institute to provide a uniform standard for industry comparison purposes. AISC is calculated based on the current guidance from the World Gold Council.

~~Gold Resource Corporation—~~Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

~~Table of Contents~~

Total cash cost before co-product credits includes all direct and indirect production costs related to our production of metals (including mining, milling and other plant facility costs, smelter treatment and refining charges, royalties, and site general and administrative costs) less stock-based compensation allocated to production costs plus treatment and refining costs.

Total cash cost after co-product credits includes total cash cost before co-product credits less co-product credits, or revenues earned from base metals.

AISC includes total cash cost after co-product credits plus other costs related to sustaining production, including allocated sustaining general and administrative expenses, and sustaining capital expenditures. We determined sustaining capital expenditures as those capital expenditures that are necessary to maintain current production and execute the current mine plan.

Cash cost before co-product credits per ounce, total cash cost after co-product credits per ounce, and AISC are calculated by dividing the relevant costs, as determined using the cost elements noted above, by precious metal gold ~~equivalent ounces~~AuEq sold for the periods presented.

In May 2020, we filed a universal shelf registration statement with the SEC on Form S-3 for the proposed offering from time to time of up to $200,000,000 of our securities, including common stock, preferred stock, and/or warrants (the “Shelf Registration Statement”). We also entered into an At the Market Offering Agreement with H.C.

However, pursuant to General Instruction I.A.3 of Form S-3, we are not eligible to use the Shelf Registration Statement ~~at this time~~until the 2022 Form 10-K is filed in 2023 due to the late filing of a Form 8-K including the historical financial statements related to our acquisition of Aquila Resources.

ITEM 3: Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Our exposure to market risks includes, but is not limited to, the following risks: changes in commodity prices, foreign currency exchange rates, provisional sales contract risks, changes in interest rates, and equity price risks. We do not use derivative financial instruments as part of an overall strategy to manage market risk; however, we may consider such arrangements in the future as we evaluate our business and financial strategy.

Commodity Price Risk

The results of our operations, cash flows, and financial condition depend in large part upon the market prices of gold, silver, copper, lead, and zinc. Metal prices fluctuate widely and are affected by numerous factors beyond our control. The level of interest rates, the rate of inflation, government fiscal and monetary policy, the stability of exchange rates, the world supply of and demand for gold, silver, and other metals, among other factors, can all cause significant fluctuations in commodity prices. Such external economic factors are in turn influenced by changes in international investment patterns, monetary systems, and political developments. The metal price markets have fluctuated widely in recent years, and future price declines could cause a mineral project to become uneconomic, thereby having a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition. We entered into a zinc zero cost collar to protect the selling price for zinc but have not entered into derivative contracts to protect the selling price for gold, silver, copper or lead. We may in the future more actively manage our exposure through additional derivative contracts, although we have no intention of doing so in the near-term.
Effective May 18, 2021, the Company entered into a Trading Agreement with Auramet International LLC that govern non-exchange traded, over-the-counter, spot, forward, and option transactions on both a deliverable and non-deliverable basis involving various metals and currencies. Subsequently the Company entered into zinc zero cost collars. These derivatives are not designated as hedges. The zero cost collars ~~are~~were used to manage the Company’s near-term exposure to cash flow variability from zinc price risks. As of December 31, 2022, the Company’s hedge program concluded, but the Company may utilize similar programs in the future to manage near-term exposure to cash flow variability from metal prices. We do not currently use financial instruments with respect to any of the other base metal ~~production.~~production either.
In addition to materially adversely affecting our reserve estimates, results of operations and/or our financial condition, declining gold and silver prices could require a reassessment of the feasibility of a project. Even if a project is ultimately determined to be economically viable, the need to conduct such a reassessment may cause delays in the implementation of a project.

Foreign Currency Risk
Our foreign operation sells its gold, silver, copper, lead, and zinc production based on U.S. dollar metal prices. Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates do not have a material impact on our revenue since gold, silver, copper, lead, and zinc are sold throughout the world in U.S. dollars.
Foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations can increase or decrease our costs to the extent we pay costs in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar. We are primarily impacted by Mexican peso rate changes relative to the U.S. Dollar, as we incur some costs in the Mexican peso. When the value of the peso rises in relation to the U.S. Dollar, some of our costs in Mexico may increase, thus materially adversely affecting our operating results. Alternatively, when the value of the peso drops in relation to the U.S. Dollar, peso-denominated costs in Mexico will decrease in U.S. Dollar terms. ~~These fluctuations do not impact our revenues since we sell our metals in U.S. Dollars.~~ Future fluctuations may give rise to foreign currency exposure, which may affect our financial results. Approximately 50% to 60% of expenses are paid in currencies other than the U.S. dollar.

We have not utilized market-risk sensitive instruments to manage our exposure to foreign currency exchange rates but may in the future actively manage our exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk.

Table of Contents

Provisional Sales Contract Risk

We enter into concentrate sales contracts which, in general, provide for a provisional payment to us based upon provisional assays and prices. The provisionally priced sales contracts contain an embedded derivative that is required to be separated from the host contract for accounting purposes. The host contract is the receivable from the sale of concentrates determined at the quoted metal prices at the time of shipment delivery to the customer. The embedded derivative, which does not qualify for hedge accounting, is adjusted to market through revenue each period prior to settlement. Changes in the prices of metals between the shipment delivery and final settlement date will result in adjustments to revenues related to the sales of concentrate previously recorded upon shipment delivery. Please see Note ~~14 -~~ 14—Derivatives in this Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements and Notes for additional information.

Interest Rate Risk

We consider our interest rate risk exposure to be insignificant at this time, as our interest rate is related and embedded in immaterial payments for office leases.

Equity Price Risk

We have in the past, and may in the future, seek to acquire additional funding through sale of common stock and other equity. The price of our common stock has been volatile in the past and may also be volatile in the future. As a result, there is a risk that we may not be able to sell our common stock at an acceptable price should the need for new equity funding arise.

ITEM 4: Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

~~Our~~During the fiscal period covered by this report, our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended). Based on such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act are recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time periods and are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in ~~the~~our reports that we file under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, with assistance from management, have evaluated the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2022. This evaluation included consideration of the material weakness in internal controls over financial reporting that was identified and disclosed in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2022. Notwithstanding such material weakness in internal control over financial reporting, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, has concluded that our consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, our financial position, results of our operations and our cash flows for the periods presented in this quarterly report, in conformity with U.S. GAAP.

~~Material Weakness in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting~~

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Due to the Aquila acquisition at December 10, 2021, management performed review and approval controls related to the balances consolidated into the statement of financial position and statement of operations at December 31, 2021. The Aquila acquisition consisted of multiple complex valuations including the gold and silver stream agreements, the deferred tax liability and land. While multiple layers of approval and reasonableness tests were conducted, management prepared insufficient documentation related to the performance of these review controls to allow the independent registered public

~~Table of Contents~~

accounting firm to reperform the controls. Additionally, due to the timing of the acquisition, it was necessary to perform these review controls in a compressed timeframe, which resulted in an adjustment identified by the independent registered public accounting firm between balance sheet accounts.

Due to the complexity of the acquisition, limited timing from the close of the transaction and the inherent limitation of internal controls over financial reporting, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021, had a material weakness related to the operating effectiveness of review controls over the accounting for and valuation of acquired assets and liabilities in the application of the acquisition method of accounting for asset acquisitions. All other internal controls over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021 and March 31, 2022 remained effective. Management will continue to evaluate if any additional action is required to further resolve the material weakness.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes that occurred during the three months ended March 31, ~~2022,~~2023, other than those enhancements to documentation discussed above, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1: Legal Proceedings

We know of no material, existing or pending legal proceedings against us, nor are we involved as a plaintiff in any material proceeding or pending litigation.

In February 2020, a local Ejido community (who claim to be an indigenous community) filed an injunction against the Mexican federal government through which they demanded the cancellation of several concession titles. The federal government ordered a suspension to prevent work related to excavating, drilling, opening tunnels and exploiting the mineral resources on the surface and subsoil of the concessions named in the injunction. Presently, the Don David Gold Mine does

ITEM 3: Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Our exposure to market risks includes, but is not limited to, the following risks: changes in commodity prices, foreign currency exchange rates, provisional sales contract risks, changes in interest rates, and equity price risks. We do not use derivative financial instruments as part of an overall strategy to manage market risk; however, we may consider such arrangements in the future as we evaluate our business and financial strategy.

Commodity Price Risk

The results of our operations, cash flows, and financial condition depend in large part upon the market prices of gold, silver, copper, lead, and zinc. Metal prices fluctuate widely and are affected by numerous factors beyond our control. The level of interest rates, the rate of inflation, government fiscal and monetary policy, the stability of exchange rates, the world supply of and demand for gold, silver, and other metals, among other factors, can all cause significant fluctuations in commodity prices. Such external economic factors are in turn influenced by changes in international investment patterns, monetary systems, and political developments. The metal price markets have fluctuated widely in recent years, and future price declines could cause a mineral project to become uneconomic, thereby having a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition. We entered into a zinc zero cost collar to protect the selling price for zinc but have not entered into derivative contracts to protect the selling price for gold, silver, copper or lead. We may in the future more actively manage our exposure through additional derivative contracts, although we have no intention of doing so in the near-term.

Effective May 18, 2021, the Company entered into a Trading Agreement with Auramet International LLC that govern non-exchange traded, over-the-counter, spot, forward, and option transactions on both a deliverable and non-deliverable basis involving various metals and currencies. Subsequently the Company entered into zinc zero cost collars. These derivatives are not designated as hedges. The zero cost collars ~~are~~were used to manage the Company’s near-term exposure to cash flow variability from zinc price risks. As of December 31, 2022, the Company’s hedge program concluded, but the Company may utilize similar programs in the future to manage near-term exposure to cash flow variability from metal prices. We do not currently use financial instruments with respect to any of the other base metal ~~production.~~production either.

In addition to materially adversely affecting our reserve estimates, results of operations and/or our financial condition, declining gold and silver prices could require a reassessment of the feasibility of a project. Even if a project is ultimately determined to be economically viable, the need to conduct such a reassessment may cause delays in the implementation of a project.

Foreign Currency Risk

Our foreign operation sells its gold, silver, copper, lead, and zinc production based on U.S. dollar metal prices. Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates do not have a material impact on our revenue since gold, silver, copper, lead, and zinc are sold throughout the world in U.S. dollars.

Foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations can increase or decrease our costs to the extent we pay costs in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar. We are primarily impacted by Mexican peso rate changes relative to the U.S. Dollar, as we incur some costs in the Mexican peso. When the value of the peso rises in relation to the U.S. Dollar, some of our costs in Mexico may increase, thus materially adversely affecting our operating results. Alternatively, when the value of the peso drops in relation to the U.S. Dollar, peso-denominated costs in Mexico will decrease in U.S. Dollar terms. ~~These fluctuations do not impact our revenues since we sell our metals in U.S. Dollars.~~ Future fluctuations may give rise to foreign currency exposure, which may affect our financial results. Approximately 50% to 60% of expenses are paid in currencies other than the U.S. dollar.

We have not utilized market-risk sensitive instruments to manage our exposure to foreign currency exchange rates but may in the future actively manage our exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk.

Interest Rate Risk

We consider our interest rate risk exposure to be insignificant at this time, as our interest rate is related and embedded in immaterial payments for office leases.

ITEM 4: Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

~~Our~~During the fiscal period covered by this report, our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended). Based on such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act are recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time periods and are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in ~~the~~our reports that we file under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, with assistance from management, have evaluated the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2022. This evaluation included consideration of the material weakness in internal controls over financial reporting that was identified and disclosed in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2022. Notwithstanding such material weakness in internal control over financial reporting, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, has concluded that our consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, our financial position, results of our operations and our cash flows for the periods presented in this quarterly report, in conformity with U.S. GAAP.
