MANAGEMENT’S RESPONSIBILITY FOR FINANCIAL REPORTING
To the Shareholders and Directors of IAMGOLD Corporation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements of IAMGOLD Corporation (“the Company”), their presentation and the information contained in Management’s Discussion and Analysis including information determined by specialists, are the responsibility of management. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.
The financial information of the Company presented in Management’s Discussion and Analysis is consistent with that in the consolidated financial statements.
The integrity of the consolidated financial reporting process is the responsibility of management. Management maintains systems of internal controls designed to provide reasonable assurance that transactions are authorized, assets are safeguarded, and reliable financial information is produced. Management selects accounting principles and methods that are appropriate to the Company’s circumstances, and makes certain determinations of amounts reported in which estimates or judgments are required.
The Board of Directors is responsible for ensuring that management fulfills its responsibility for financial reporting. The Board of Directors carries out this responsibility principally through its Audit Committee which consists of independent directors. The Board of Directors has also designated the Chairman of the Audit Committee as the Company’s financial expert. The Audit Committee meets periodically with management and the external auditors to discuss internal controls, auditing matters and financial reporting requirements. The Audit Committee satisfies itself that each party is properly discharging its responsibilities; reviews the quarterly and annual consolidated financial statements and any reports by the external auditors; and recommends the appointment of the external auditors for review by the Board of Directors and approval by the shareholders.
The external auditors audit the consolidated financial statements annually on behalf of the shareholders. The external auditors have full and free access to management and the Audit Committee.

MANAGEMENT’S REPORTON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
The CEO and CFO conducted an evaluation of the design, implementation and operating effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015, based on the criteria set forth in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. This evaluation included review of the documentation of controls, evaluation of the design effectiveness of controls, testing of the operating effectiveness of controls and a conclusion on this evaluation. Based on this evaluation, management has concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2015.
The effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015 has been audited by KPMG LLP, Chartered Professional Accountants, as stated in their report located on page 42 of the consolidated financial statements.

To the Shareholders of IAMGOLD Corporation
We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of IAMGOLD Corporation, which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as at December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the consolidated statements of earnings, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and notes, comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.
Management’s Responsibility for the Consolidated Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditors’ Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards and the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on our judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidatedfinancial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, we consider internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained in our audits is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of IAMGOLD Corporation as at December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, and its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.
Other Matter
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), IAMGOLD Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015, based on the criteria established inInternal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO), and our report dated February 17, 2016 expressed an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of IAMGOLD Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting.

REPORTOF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRMON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
To the Shareholders of IAMGOLD Corporation
We have audited IAMGOLD Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015, based on criteria established inInternal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). IAMGOLD Corporation’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in management’s report on internal control over financial reporting in Form 40-F for the year ended December 31, 2015. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
In our opinion, IAMGOLD Corporation maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015, based on criteria established inInternal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets of IAMGOLD Corporation as of December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, and the related consolidated statements of earnings, comprehensive income, changes in equity, and cash flows for the years then ended, and our report dated February 17, 2016 expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements.

The principal activities of the Company are the exploration, development and operation of gold mining properties.
2. | BASIS OF PREPARATION |
(a) | Statement of compliance |
These consolidated financial statements, as at and for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”).
These consolidated financial statements were prepared on a going concern basis. The significant accounting policies applied in these consolidated financial statements are presented in note 3 and have been consistently applied in each of the years presented.
The consolidated financial statements of IAMGOLD were authorized for issue in accordance with a resolution of the Board of Directors on February 17, 2016.
(b) | Basis of measurement |
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for items measured at fair value as discussed in note 20.
(c) | Basis of consolidation |
Subsidiaries and investments in joint ventures related to significant properties of the Company are accounted for as outlined below.

2 | The Company acquired an additional 3.7% interest in Euro Ressources S.A. (“Euro Ressources”) in 2015. Refer to note 23. |
(i) | Subsidiaries |
Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Company. Control is achieved when the Company has the ability to direct the relevant activities, including financial and operating activities, of an entity to affect its returns. The Company has control over the consolidated entities through ownership of the voting power. Subsidiaries are consolidated from the acquisition date, which is the date on which the Company obtains control of the acquired entity. Where the Company’s interest in a subsidiary is less than 100%, the Company recognizes a non-controlling interest. All intercompany balances, transactions, income, expenses and profits and losses have been eliminated on consolidation.
IAMGOLD CORPORATION
2015 CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
PAGE 48
(ii) | Joint arrangements |
Joint arrangements are those arrangements over which the Company has joint control established by contractual agreement and requiring unanimous consent of the joint venture parties for financial and operating decisions. The Company’s significant joint arrangements consist of joint ventures, which are structured through separate legal entities. The financial results of joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method from the date that joint control commences until the date that joint control ceases, and are prepared for the same reporting period as the Company, using consistent accounting policies. There are no significant judgments and assumptions made in determining the existence of joint control of either Société d’Exploitation des Mines d’Or de Sadiola S.A. or Société d’Exploitation des Mines d’Or de Yatela S.A.
Losses from joint ventures are recognized in the consolidated financial statements until the carrying amount of the interest in the joint venture is reduced to nil. Thereafter, losses are recognized only to the extent that the Company has an obligation to fund the joint venture’s operations or has made payments on behalf of the joint venture.
(iii) | Associates |
Associates are those entities over which the Company has significant influence and that are neither subsidiaries nor interests in joint arrangements, and are accounted for using the equity method. Significant influence is the ability to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the entity without having control or joint control over those policies. The Company’s share of net earnings (losses) from investments in associates is recognized in the consolidated statements of earnings and accounted for as an increase (decrease) in investments in associates in the consolidated balance sheets. The cash received from investments in associates is accounted for as a decrease of investments in associates in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company has concluded that it has significant influence over its investments in Galane Gold Ltd. (“Galane”), INV Metals Inc. (“INV Metals”) and Merrex Gold Inc. (“Merrex”) through the level of ownership of voting rights (refer to note 11). The Company has assessed additional facts and circumstances, including voting rights and board appointments, and concluded that there is no clear evidence of control of either Galane, INV Metals or Merrex.
Losses from associates are recognized in the consolidated financial statements until the carrying amount of the interest in the associate is reduced to nil. Thereafter, losses are recognized only to the extent that the Company has an obligation to fund the associate’s operations or has made payments on behalf of the associate.
(d) | Functional and presentation currency |
The functional currency of the Company’s subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates is the U.S. dollar, other than INV Metals and Merrex, whose functional currency is the Canadian dollar.
For subsidiaries, joint ventures or associates whose functional currency is other than the U.S. dollar, foreign currency balances and transactions are translated into U.S. dollars. Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at average exchange rates throughout the reporting period or at rates that approximate the actual exchange rates. Exchange gains and losses on translation are included in other comprehensive income (“OCI”). The cumulative amount of the exchange differences is presented as a separate component of equity until disposal of the foreign operation.
Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are translated into the entity’s functional currency as follows:
• | Monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date; |
• | Non-monetary assets and liabilities are translated at historical exchange rates prevailing at each transaction date; and |
• | Revenues and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates throughout the reporting period, except depreciation, depletion and amortization, which are translated at the rates of exchange applicable to the related assets, and share-based compensation expense, which is translated at the rates of exchange applicable at the date of grant of the share-based compensation. |
Exchange gains and losses on translation of transactions are included in the consolidated statements of earnings. When a gain or loss on certain non-monetary items, such as financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income, is recognized in OCI, the translation differences are also recognized in OCI.
3. | SUMMARYOF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently by the Company, its subsidiaries, joint arrangements and associates in all periods presented in these consolidated financial statements.
(a) | Financial instruments |
The Company recognizes financial assets and financial liabilities on the date the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments. A financial asset is derecognized either when the Company has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset or when cash flows expire. A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, canceled or expired. Certain financial instruments are recorded at fair value in the consolidated balance sheets. Refer to note 20 on fair value determination.
IAMGOLD CORPORATION
2015 CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
PAGE 49
(i) | Non-derivative financial instruments |
Non-derivative financial instruments are recognized initially at fair value plus attributable transaction costs, where applicable for financial instruments not classified as fair value through profit or loss. Subsequent to initial recognition, non-derivative financial instruments are classified and measured as described below.
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
Cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, short-term investments, bond fund investments and warrants are classified as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and are measured at fair value. Cash and cash equivalents are short-term investments with initial maturities of three months or less. Short-term investments have initial maturities of more than three months and less than 12 months. The unrealized gains or losses related to changes in fair value are reported in interest income and derivatives and other investment gains (losses) in the consolidated statements of earnings.
Amortized cost
Trade and other receivables and fixed rate investments are classified as and measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method, less impairment losses, if any.
Financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income
The Company’s investments in equity marketable securities are designated as financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income and are recorded at fair value on the trade date with directly attributable transaction costs included in the recorded amount. Subsequent changes in fair value are recognized in other comprehensive income.
Non-derivative financial liabilities
Accounts payable, accrued liabilities, senior unsecured notes, and borrowings related to the credit facility are accounted for at amortized cost, using the effective interest rate method. The amortization of senior unsecured notes issue costs is calculated using the effective interest rate method, and the amortization of credit facility issue costs is calculated on a straight-line basis over the term of the credit facility.
(ii) | Derivative financial instruments |
The Company may hold derivative financial instruments to hedge its risk exposure to fluctuations of other currencies compared to the U.S. dollar, and fluctuations in commodity prices such as for oil and fuel. All derivative instruments not designated in a hedge relationship that qualifies for hedge accounting are classified as financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss.
Derivative financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss, including embedded derivatives, requiring separation from its host, are recorded in the consolidated balance sheets at fair value.
Changes in estimated fair value of non-hedge derivatives at each reporting date are included in the consolidated statements of earnings as non-hedge derivative gains or losses.
Embedded derivatives in financial liabilities measured at amortized cost are separated from the host contract and accounted for separately if the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract and the embedded derivative are not closely related.
(iii) | Hedges |
The Company uses derivative financial instruments to hedge its exposure to exchange rate fluctuations on foreign currency denominated revenues, operating expenses and purchases of non-financial assets and its exposure to price fluctuations of consumable purchases.
The Company formally documents all relationships between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as its risk management objectives and strategies for undertaking hedge transactions. This process includes linking all derivative hedging instruments to forecasted transactions. Hedge effectiveness is assessed based on the degree to which the cash flows from the derivative contracts are expected to offset the cash flows of the underlying transaction being hedged.
When a derivative is designated as a cash flow hedging instrument, the effective portion of changes in fair value is recognized in other comprehensive income, net of tax. For hedge items other than the purchase of non-financial assets, the amounts accumulated in other comprehensive income are reclassified to the consolidated statement of earnings when the underlying hedged transaction, identified at contract inception, affects profit or loss. When hedging a forecasted transaction that results in the recognition of a non-financial asset, the amounts accumulated in equity are removed and added to the carrying amount of the non-financial asset.
Any ineffective portion of a hedge relationship is recognized immediately in the consolidated statements of earnings. The Company has elected to exclude the time value component of options and the forward element of forward contracts from the hedging relationships, with changes in these amounts recorded in other
IAMGOLD CORPORATION
2015 CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
PAGE 50
comprehensive income and treated as a cost of hedging. For hedge items other than the purchase of non-financial assets, the cost of hedging amounts are reclassified to the consolidated statement of earnings when the underlying hedged transaction affects profit or loss. When hedging a forecasted transaction that results in the recognition of a non-financial asset, cost of hedging amounts are added to the carrying amount of the non-financial asset.
When derivative contracts designated as cash flow hedges are terminated, expired, sold or no longer qualify for hedge accounting, hedge accounting is discontinued prospectively. Any amounts recorded in other comprehensive income up until the time the contracts do not qualify for hedge accounting remain in other comprehensive income. Amounts recognized in other comprehensive income are recognized in the consolidated statement of earnings in the period in which the underlying hedged transaction is completed. Gains or losses arising subsequent to the derivative contracts not qualifying for hedge accounting are recognized in the period incurred in the consolidated statement of earnings.
If the forecasted transaction is no longer expected to occur, then the amounts accumulated in other comprehensive income are reclassified to the consolidated statement of earnings immediately.
(b) | Gold bullion |
Investments in gold bullion are measured at the lower of average cost and net realizable value.
(c) | Inventories |
Gold production inventories, concentrate inventory, and ore stockpiles are measured at the lower of weighted average production cost and net realizable value. Mine supplies are measured at the lower of average purchase cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is calculated as the difference between the estimated selling price and estimated costs to complete processing into a saleable form and variable selling expenses.
Production costs include the cost of materials, labour, mine site production overheads and depreciation to the applicable stage of processing. Production overheads are allocated to inventory based on the normal capacity of production facilities.
The cost of ore stockpiles is increased based on the related current cost of production for the period, and decreases in stockpiles are charged to cost of sales using the weighted average cost per tonne. Stockpiles are segregated between current and non-current inventories in the consolidated balance sheets based on the period of planned usage.
Provisions are recorded to reduce the carrying amount of inventory to net realizable value to reflect changes in grades, quantity or other economic factors and to reflect current intentions for the use of redundant or slow-moving items. Provisions for redundant and slow-moving items are made by reference to specific items of inventory. The Company reverses write-downs where there is a subsequent increase in net realizable value and where the inventory is still on hand.
Spare parts, stand-by and servicing equipment held are generally classified as inventories. Major capital spare parts and stand-by equipment (insurance spares) are classified as a component of property, plant and equipment.
(d) | Property, plant and equipment |
Property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment charges.
The initial cost of an asset comprises its purchase or construction cost, any costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to a working condition for its intended use, the initial estimate of the rehabilitation obligation, and for qualifying assets, borrowing costs. Qualifying assets are defined as assets that require more than six months to be brought to the location and condition intended by management. Capitalization of borrowing costs ceases when such assets are ready for their intended use.
The purchase price or the construction cost is the aggregate cash paid and the fair value of any other consideration given to acquire the asset.
Gains and losses on disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment are determined by comparing the proceeds from disposal with the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment, and are recognized in the consolidated statements of earnings in other operating costs.
The cost of replacing part of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognized in the carrying amount of the item if it is probable that the future economic benefits embodied within the part will flow to the Company and its cost can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is de-recognized. Costs of the day-to-day servicing of property, plant and equipment are recognized in the consolidated statements of earnings as incurred.

Property, plant and equipment presented in the consolidated balance sheets represent the capitalized expenditures related to:
• | Construction in progress, |
• | mining properties, and |
• | plant and equipment, including corporate assets. |
(i) | Construction in progress |
Upon determination of technical feasibility and commercial viability of extracting a mineral resource, the related exploration and evaluation assets (refer to note 3(f) below) are transferred to construction in progress costs. These amounts plus all subsequent mine development costs are capitalized. Costs are not amortized until the project is ready for use as intended by management.
Mine construction costs include expenditures to develop new ore bodies, define further mineralization in existing ore bodies, and construct, install and complete infrastructure facilities.
Borrowing costs are capitalized and allocated specifically to the project when funds have been borrowed, either to specifically finance a project or for general borrowings during the period of construction.
The date of transition from construction to production accounting is based on both qualitative and quantitative criteria such as substantial physical project completion, sustained level of mining, sustained level of processing activity, and passage of a reasonable period of time. Upon completion of mine construction activities (based on the determination of the commencement of production), costs are removed from construction in progress assets and incorporated into the appropriate categories of property, plant and equipment and supplies inventories.
(ii) | Mining properties |
Capitalized costs for evaluation on or adjacent to sites where the Company has mineral deposits, are classified as mining properties within mining assets.
(iii) | Stripping costs |
Costs associated with stripping activities in an open pit mine are expensed within cost of sales unless the stripping activity can be shown to improve access to further quantities of material that will be mined in future periods, in which case, the stripping costs are capitalized to mining properties within property, plant and equipment. Furthermore, stripping costs are capitalized to inventory to the extent that the benefits of the stripping activity relate to gold production inventories, concentrate inventory or ore stockpiles.
(iv) | Plant and equipment |
Plant and equipment located at corporate locations includes the following categories of assets: furniture and equipment, computer equipment, software, scientific instruments and equipment, vehicles and leasehold improvements.
(e) | Depreciation and amortization |
Effective from the point an asset is available for its intended use, property, plant and equipment are depreciated or amortized, respectively, using either the straight line or units-of-production methods over the shorter of the estimated economic life of the asset or the mining operation. Depreciation and amortization are determined based on the method which best represents the use of the assets.
The reserve and resource estimates for each mining operation are the prime determinants of the life of a mine. In general, when the useful life of property, plant and equipment is akin to the life of the mining operation and the ore body’s mineralization is reasonably well defined, the asset is depreciated on a units-of-production basis over its proven and probable mineral reserves. Non-reserve material may be included in depreciation calculations in limited circumstances where there is a high degree of confidence in its economic extraction. The Company evaluates the estimate of mineral reserves and resources at least on an annual basis and adjusts the units-of-production calculation prospectively. In 2015 and 2014, the Company has not incorporated any non-reserve material in its depreciation calculations on a units-of-production basis. When property, plant and equipment are depreciated on a straight line basis, the useful life of the mining operation is determined based on the most recent life of mine (“LOM”) plan. LOM plans are typically developed annually and are based on management’s current best estimates of optimized mine and processing plans, future operating costs and the assessment of capital expenditures of a mine site. Any change in the useful life is adjusted prospectively.
Estimated useful lives normally vary from three to fifteen years for items of plant and equipment to a maximum of twenty years for buildings.
Amounts related to expected economic conversions of resources to reserves recorded in a business combination or an asset acquisition, are not amortized until resources are converted into reserves. Amounts related to capitalized costs of exploration and evaluation assets and construction in progress are not amortized as the assets are not available for use.
Capitalized stripping costs are depreciated over the reserves that directly benefit from the specific stripping activity using the units-of-production method.
IAMGOLD CORPORATION
2015 CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
PAGE 52
Capitalized borrowing costs are amortized over the useful life of the related asset.
Residual values, useful lives and amortization methods are reviewed at least annually and adjusted if appropriate. The impact of changes to the estimated useful lives, change in depreciation method or residual values is accounted for prospectively.
(f) | Mineral exploration and evaluation costs |
Exploration activities relate to the collection of exploration data.
Exploration data consists of geological, geophysical, geochemical, sampling, drilling, trenching, analytical test work, assaying, mineralogical, metallurgical, and other similar information that is derived from activities undertaken to locate, investigate, define or delineate a mineral prospect or mineral deposit. Mineral exploration costs are expensed as incurred.
Evaluation costs are capitalized and relate to activities to evaluate the potential technical feasibility and commercial viability of extracting a mineral resource on sites where the Company does not have mineral deposits already being mined or constructed. The technical feasibility and commercial viability is based on management’s evaluation of the geological properties of an ore body based on information obtained through evaluation activities, including metallurgical testing, resource and reserve estimates and economic assessment whether the ore body can be mined economically. Exploration properties acquired through asset acquisitions or business combinations are also recognized as exploration and evaluation assets.
(g) | Business combinations and goodwill |
Business combinations relate to the acquisition of an asset or a group of assets that constitute a business. For an integrated set of activities and assets to be considered a business, it needs to contain inputs, and processes. If the set of activities and assets acquired relate to an exploration stage property, the Company considers other factors to determine whether the set of activities and assets is a business such as the extent to which the acquired project has resources or reserves, and the extent and nature of the additional work to identify resources or convert resources into reserves. The Company also assesses whether the entity acquired has begun planned principal activities, has employees, necessary permits for production, intellectual property, and is pursuing a plan to produce outputs and will be able to obtain access to customers that will purchase the outputs.
Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting whereby identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded at fair value as of the date of acquisition. Mineral rights that can be reliably valued are recognized in the assessment of fair values on acquisition, including amounts attributable to expected economic conversions of resources to reserves. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill.
For non-wholly owned subsidiaries, non-controlling interests are initially recorded at the fair value of the non-controlling interests share holdings or the non-controlling interests’ proportion of the fair values of the assets and liabilities recognized at acquisition.
When a subsidiary is acquired in a number of stages, the carrying amount of interests prior to acquisition of control is re-measured to fair value on the date control is acquired. Amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income in respect of the subsidiary are reversed, and the difference is recognized in earnings. For non-wholly owned subsidiaries, non-controlling interests are adjusted to reflect the change in ownership.
When the net of the amounts assigned to assets acquired and liabilities assumed exceeds the cost of purchase, the excess is recognized as negative goodwill and recorded in the consolidated statements of earnings at the date of acquisition.
Subsequent to initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. For the purposes of impairment testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination is, from the acquisition date, allocated to cash generating units (“CGU”) that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination.
If a transaction does not meet the definition of a business under IFRS, the transaction is recorded as an asset acquisition. Accordingly, the net identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed are measured at the fair value consideration paid, based on their relative fair values at the acquisition date. Acquisition-related costs are included in the consideration paid and capitalized. No goodwill and no deferred tax asset or liability arising from the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recognized upon the acquisition of assets.
(h) | Other intangible assets |
Other intangible assets are related to the fair value of favourable supplier contracts accounted for on a prior acquisition. The fair value was determined using a differential cost method based on cost savings expected from favourable terms of supplier contracts. Other intangible assets are amortized under the straight-line method based on the terms of each contract, which range from 2 to 20 years. Other intangible assets are classified in other non-current assets in the consolidated balance sheets.

2015 CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(i) | Impairment |
(i) | Financial assets |
Financial assets measured at amortized cost are tested for impairment at each reporting date to determine whether there is any objective evidence of impairment. A financial asset is considered to be impaired if objective evidence, that can be estimated reliably, indicates that one or more events have had a negative effect on the estimated future cash flows of that asset.
An impairment loss in respect of a financial asset measured at amortized cost is calculated as the difference between its carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the original effective interest rate.
A prior period impairment loss is tested for possible reversal of impairment whenever an event or change in circumstance indicates the impairment may have reversed. If it has been determined that the impairment has reversed, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to its recoverable amount to a maximum of the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized in prior periods. Impairment loss reversals are recognized in the consolidated statements of earnings.
The Company’s investments in equity marketable securities are designated as financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income. Changes in fair value are recognized in other comprehensive income.
(ii) | Non-financial assets |
The carrying amounts of the Company’s non-current assets, including mining assets and exploration and evaluation assets, are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indicator exists, the Company performs an impairment review.
An impairment review requires the Company to determine the recoverable amount. For non-current assets, including mining assets, and exploration and evaluation assets, the recoverable amount is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets. If this is the case, the individual assets are grouped together into a Cash generating unit (“CGU”) for impairment testing purposes. A CGU for impairment testing is typically considered to be an individual mine site or a development project.
The recoverable amount is determined as the higher of the CGU’s fair value less costs of disposal (“FVLCD”) and value in use (“VIU”). If the carrying amount of the asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount, an impairment loss is recorded to the other long-lived assets in the CGU on a pro rata basis.
A prior period impairment loss is tested for possible reversal of impairment whenever an event or change in circumstance indicates the impairment may have reversed. If it has been determined that the impairment has reversed, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to its recoverable amount to a maximum of the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized in prior periods. An impairment loss reversal is recognized in the consolidated statements of earnings. Impairment losses recognized in relation to goodwill are not reversed for subsequent increases in a CGU’s recoverable amount.
In the absence of market related comparative information, the FVLCD is determined based on the present value of estimated future cash flows from each long-lived asset or CGU. The assumptions used in determining the FVLCD for the CGU’s are typically life-of-mine (“LOM”) production profiles, long-term commodity prices, reserves and resources, discount rates, foreign exchange rates, values of un-modeled mineralization, capital expenditures, net asset value (“NAV”) multiples and expected commencement of production for exploration and evaluation projects. Management’s assumptions and estimate of future cash flows are subject to risk and uncertainties, particularly in market conditions where higher volatility exists, and may be partially or totally outside of the Company’s control. Therefore, it is reasonably possible that changes could occur with evolving economic conditions, which may affect the recoverability of the Company’s long-lived assets. If the Company fails to achieve its valuation assumptions or if any of its long-lived assets or CGUs experience a decline in their fair value, this may result in an impairment charge in future periods, which would reduce the Company’s earnings.
(j) | Asset retirement obligations |
The Company records the present value of estimated costs of legal and constructive obligations required to restore locations in the period in which the obligation is incurred with a corresponding increase in the carrying amount of the related mining asset. For locations where mining activities have ceased, changes to obligations are charged directly to the consolidated statement of earnings. The obligation is generally considered to have been incurred when mine assets are constructed or the ground environment is disturbed at the production location. The discounted liability is adjusted at the end of each period to reflect the passage of time, based on a risk-free real discount rate that reflects current market assessments, and changes in the estimated future cash flows underlying the obligation.
The Company also estimates the timing of the outlays, which is subject to change depending on continued operation or newly discovered reserves.
IAMGOLD CORPORATION
2015 CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
PAGE 54
The periodic unwinding of the discount is recognized in earnings as a finance cost. Additional disturbances or changes in restoration costs or in discount rates are recognized as changes to the corresponding assets and asset retirement obligation when they occur. Environmental costs at operating mines, as well as changes to estimated costs and discount rates for closed sites, are charged to earnings in the period during which they occur.
(k) | Other provisions |
Provisions are recognized when a legal or constructive present obligation exists as a result of a past event, for which it is probable that an outflow of economic resources will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.
Provisions are determined based on management’s best estimate (refer to note 3(t)(vi)).
Certain conditions may exist as of the date of the financial statements, which may result in a loss to the Company, but which will only be resolved when one or more future events will occur or fail to occur. If the assessment of a contingency suggests that a loss is probable, and the amount can be reliably estimated, then a provision is recorded. When a contingent loss is not probable but is reasonably possible then details of the contingent loss are disclosed.
(l) | Income taxes |
(i) | Current income tax |
Current income tax assets and liabilities for the current and prior periods are measured at the amount expected to be recovered from or paid to the taxation authorities. The tax rates and tax laws used to compute the amount are those that are enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.
Current income tax assets and current income tax liabilities are only offset if a legally enforceable right exists to set off the amounts, and the Company intends to settle on a net basis, or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Current income taxes related to items recognized directly in equity are recognized directly in equity.
(ii) | Deferred income tax |
Deferred income tax is recognized in respect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets and its tax base.
Deferred income tax liabilities are recognized for all taxable temporary differences, except:
• | Where the deferred income tax liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit; and |
• | In respect of taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint ventures, where the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences can be controlled by the parent, or venturer and it is probable that the temporary differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future. |
Deferred income tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences, carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses, to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, and the carry forward of unused tax credits and unused tax losses can be utilized, except:
• | When results from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting profit nor taxable profit or loss; and |
• | In respect of deductible temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint ventures, deferred income tax assets are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that the temporary differences will reverse in the foreseeable future and taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilized. |
The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each balance sheet date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilized. Unrecognized deferred income tax assets are reassessed at each balance sheet date and are recognized to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit will be available to allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.
A translation gain or loss will arise where the local tax currency is not the same as the functional currency. A deferred tax asset or liability is recognized on the difference between the carrying amount of the non-monetary assets and the underlying tax basis, translated to the functional currency using the current foreign exchange rate. The translation gain or loss is recorded in Income taxes on the Consolidated statement of earnings.
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the year when the asset is expected to be realized or the liability settled, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date.
Deferred income taxes related to items recognized directly in equity are recognized directly in equity.

PAGE 55
Deferred income tax assets and deferred income tax liabilities are offset, if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against current income tax liabilities and the deferred income taxes relate to the same taxable entity and the same taxation authority.
There is no certainty that future income tax rates will be consistent with current estimates. Changes in tax rates increase the volatility of the Company’s earnings.
(m) | Flow-through shares |
The Company recognizes flow-through common shares in equity based on the quoted market price of the existing shares on the date of issue. The difference between the amount recognized in common shares and the amount the investor pays for the shares is recognized as a deferred gain which is reversed into earnings as eligible expenditures are incurred. The deferred tax impact is recorded as eligible expenditures are incurred.
(n) | Earnings per share |
The Company presents basic and diluted earnings per share data for its common shares. Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing earnings attributable to equity shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share are determined by adjusting the weighted average number of common shares for the dilutive effect of share-based payments, employee incentive share units, and warrants using the treasury stock method. Under this method, stock options, whose exercise price is less than the average market price of the Company’s common shares, are assumed to be exercised and the proceeds used to repurchase common shares at the average market price for the period. The incremental number of common shares issued under stock options and repurchased from proceeds is included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share.
(o) | Share-based payments |
The Company has the following share-based payment plans with related costs included in general and administrative expenses.
(i) | Share options, share bonus plan, and deferred share plan |
The Company operates a number of equity-settled share-based payment plans in respect of its employees. Share-based compensation costs are measured based on the grant date fair value of the equity-settled instruments and recognized upon grant date over the related service period in the consolidated statement of earnings and credited to contributed surplus within shareholders’ equity. The Company uses the graded vesting method for attributing share option expense over the vesting period.
The grant date fair value is based on the underlying market price of the shares of the Company taking into account the terms and conditions upon which those equity-settled instruments were granted. The fair value of equity-settled instruments granted is estimated using the Black-Scholes model or other appropriate method and assumptions at grant date. Equity-settled awards are not re-measured subsequent to the initial grant date.
Determination of the grant date fair value requires management estimates such as risk-free interest rate, volatility and weighted average expected life. Share option expense incorporates an expected forfeiture rate which is estimated based on historical forfeiture rates and expectations of future forfeiture rates. The Company makes adjustments if the actual forfeiture rate differs from the expected rate.
The weighted average grant date fair value is the basis for which share-based payments are recognized in earnings.
Upon exercise of options and/or issuance of shares, consideration paid by employees, as well as the grant date fair value of the equity-settled instruments, are transferred to common shares.
(ii) | Share purchase plan |
The Company provides a share purchase plan where the Company contributes towards the purchase of shares on the open market. The Company’s contribution vests on December 31 of each year and is charged to earnings in the year of contribution.
(p) | Revenue recognition |
Revenues include sales of gold and by-product concentrate.
Revenues from the sale of gold and by-products (silver and copper concentrate) are recognized when the metal is delivered to the counterparties.
(q) | Assets held for sale and discontinued operations |
A discontinued operation is a component of the Company that either has been disposed of or is classified as held for sale, and: (i) represents a separate major line of business or geographical area of operation; (ii) is part of a single coordinated plan to dispose of a separate major line of business or geographical area of operation; or (iii) is a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to resell. A component of the Company comprises operations and cash flows that can be clearly distinguished, operationally and for financial reporting purposes, from the rest of the Company. Net earnings from operations and any gain or loss on the disposal are disclosed separately as net earnings from discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of earnings and comparative periods are reclassified accordingly.
IAMGOLD CORPORATION
2015 CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
PAGE 56
Non-current assets and disposal groups are classified as held for sale from the date the qualifying criteria are met and are measured at the lower of the carrying amount and fair value less costs of disposal. If the fair value less costs of disposal is lower than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognized in the consolidated statements of earnings. Upon classification as held for sale, non-current assets are no longer depreciated.
(r) | Leases |
The determination of whether an arrangement is, or contains, a lease is based on the substance of the contractual arrangement at inception date, including whether the arrangement contains the use of a specific asset and the right to use that asset. Where the Company receives substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset, these arrangements are classified as finance leases. Finance leases are recorded as an asset with a corresponding liability at an amount equal to the lower of the fair value of the leased asset and the present value of the minimum lease payments. Each lease payment is allocated between the liability and finance costs using the effective interest method, with the interest element of the lease charged to the consolidated statements of earnings as a finance cost. Property, plant and equipment acquired under finance leases are depreciated over the shorter of the useful life of the asset and the lease term.
All other leases are classified as operating leases. Operating lease payments are recognized in the consolidated statements of earnings on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
(s) | Segmented information |
The Company’s operating segments are those operations whose operating results are reviewed by the Company’s chief operating decision maker to make resource allocation decisions and assess their performance. Operating segments whose revenues, earnings or losses or assets exceed 10% of the total consolidated revenue, earnings or losses or assets are reportable segments.
In order to determine the reportable operating segments, various factors are considered, including geographical location and managerial structure. It was determined that the Company’s gold segment is divided into reportable geographic segments. The Company’s other reportable segments have been determined to be the exploration and evaluation and Corporate operating segments, which includes royalty interests located in Canada and investments in associates and joint ventures. The Company discloses information for its joint ventures as it is reviewed regularly by the Company’s chief operating decision maker as part of the performance assessment and resource allocation decision making processes. The operations for the joint ventures in Sadiola and Yatela have been combined for segmented information purposes as they operate in the same geographical location and share production resources and facilities.
(t) | Significant accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions |
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates and assumptions are continuously evaluated and are based on management’s experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
Assumptions about the future and other major sources of estimation uncertainty at the end of the reporting period have a significant risk of resulting in a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities, within the next financial year. The most significant judgments and sources of estimation uncertainty that the Company believes could have a significant impact on the amounts recognized in its consolidated financial statements are described below.
(i) | Mineral reserves and resources |
Key sources of estimation uncertainty
Mineral reserves and resources have been estimated by qualified persons as defined in accordance with Canadian Securities Administrators’ National Instrument43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects requirements. Mineral reserve and resource estimates include numerous uncertainties and depend heavily on geological interpretations and statistical inferences drawn from drilling and other data, and require estimates of the future price for the commodity and the future cost of operations. The mineral reserve and resource estimates are subject to uncertainty and actual results may vary from these estimates. Results from drilling, testing and production, as well as material changes in metal prices and operating costs subsequent to the date of an estimate, may justify revision of such estimates.
A number of accounting estimates, as described in the relevant accounting policy notes, are impacted by the Mineral reserves and resources estimates:
• | Capitalization and amortization of stripping costs (note 3(d)(iii)); |
• | Determination of the useful life of property, plant and equipment and measurement of the depreciation expense (note 3(e)); |
• | Mineral exploration and evaluation of mineral resources and determination of technical feasibility and commercial viability (note 3(f)). The application of the Company’s accounting policy for exploration and evaluation expenditures requires judgment in determining whether future economic benefits may be realized, which are based on assumptions about future events and circumstances; |
IAMGOLD CORPORATION
2015 CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
PAGE 57
• | Fair value of mineral rights acquired in a business combination (note 3(g)); |
• | Consideration of whether assets acquired meet the definition of a business or should be accounted for as an asset acquisition (note 3(g)); |
• | Impairment analysis of non-financial assets including evaluation of estimated future cash flows of CGUs (note 3(i)(ii)); and |
• | Estimates of the timing of the outlays for asset retirement obligations (note 3(j)). |
(ii) | Determination of the date of transition from construction to production accounting |
Judgments made in relation to accounting policies
Commencement of production is an important “point in time” determination, for accounting purposes, of when a constructed asset has reached a level of function indicative of its readiness to be considered a viable operation and accounted for as such, including accounting recognition of revenue and expenses from the operation. The date of transition from construction to production accounting is based on both qualitative and quantitative criteria such as substantial physical project completion, sustained level of mining, sustained level of processing activity, and passage of a reasonable period of time.
(iii) | Impairment analysis of non-financial assets |
Key sources of estimation uncertainty
Management’s assumptions and estimate of future cash flows used in the Company’s impairment assessment of goodwill and non-financial assets are subject to risk and uncertainties, particularly in market conditions where higher volatility exists, and may be partially or totally outside of the Company’s control.
If an indication of impairment exists, an estimate of a CGUs recoverable amount is calculated. The recoverable amount is based on the higher of FVLCD and VIU using a discounted cash flow methodology taking into account assumptions that would be made by market participants. Cash flows are for periods up to the date that mining is expected to cease which depends on a number of variables including recoverable mineral reserves and resources, expansion plans and the forecasted selling prices for such production.
In estimating the net realizable value of inventories, significant estimate is made regarding the quantities of saleable metals included in stockpiles based on the quantities of ore, the grade of ore and the estimated recovery percentage. There can be no assurance that actual quantities will not differ significantly from estimates used.
Judgments made in relation to accounting policies
Both internal and external sources of information are required to be considered when determining whether an impairment indicator or indicator of a previous impairment has reversed may be present. Judgment is required around significant adverse changes in the business climate which may be indicators for impairment such as a significant decline in the asset’s market value, decline in resources and/or reserves as a result of geological re-assessment or change in timing of extraction of resources and/or reserves which would result in a change in the discounted cash flow obtained from the site, and lower metal prices or higher input cost prices than would have been expected since the most recent valuation of the site. Judgment is also required when considering whether significant changes in any of these items indicate a previous impairment may have reversed.
Judgment is required to determine whether there are indications that the carrying amount of an exploration project is unlikely to be recovered in full from successful development of the project or by sale. Judgment is also required when considering whether significant changes indicate that a previous impairment may have reversed.
(iv) | Determination of control by one entity over another |
Judgments made in relation to accounting policies
Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Company and are consolidated. Investments in associates are those entities in which the Company has significant influence, but no control or joint control, and are accounted for using the equity method.
As at December 31, 2015, IAMGOLD owned 41% of the outstanding shares of Galane, 47% of the outstanding shares of INV Metals and 25% of the outstanding shares of Merrex (refer to note 11). If an investor holds 20% or more of the voting power of the investee, it is presumed that the investor has significant influence, unless it can be clearly demonstrated that this is not the case. The Company used its judgment to determine that it has significant influence, and no control, over these entities and accounted for it as investments in associates using the equity method of accounting.
(v) | Derivative financial instruments |
Judgments made in relation to accounting policies
Judgment is required to determine if an effective hedging relationship exists throughout the financial reporting period for derivative financial instruments classified as either a fair value or cash flow hedge. Management assesses the relationships on an ongoing basis to determine if hedge accounting is appropriate.
IAMGOLD CORPORATION
2015 CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
PAGE 58
Key sources of estimation uncertainty
The Company monitors on a regular basis its hedge position for its risk exposure to fluctuations of the U.S. dollar compared to other currencies, and fluctuations in commodity prices such as for oil, aluminum and gold. Forecasts are based on estimates of future transactions. For its derivative contracts, valuations are based on forward rates considering the market price, rate of interest and volatility, and take into account the credit risk of the financial instrument. Refer to note 19 for more detailed information and sensitivity analyses based on changes in currencies and commodity prices.
(vi) | Provisions and recognition or not of a liability for loss contingencies |
Judgments made in relation to accounting policies
Judgments are required to determine if a present obligation exists at the end of the reporting period and by considering all available evidence, including the opinion of experts. The most significant provisions that require judgment to determine if a present obligation exists are asset retirement obligations (AROs).
Key sources of estimation uncertainty
Provisions related to present obligations, including AROs, are management’s best estimate of the amount of probable future outflow, expected timing of payments, and discount rates. Refer to note 15.
(vii) | Determination of deferred income tax |
Key sources of estimation uncertainty
The carrying amount of deferred income tax assets is reviewed at each balance sheet date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow all or part of the deferred income tax asset to be utilized. Unrecognized deferred income tax assets are reassessed at each balance sheet date and are recognized to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit will be available to allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered. There is no certainty that income tax rates will be consistent with current estimates. Changes in tax rates increase the volatility of the Company’s earnings. For more information, refer to notes 3(l)(ii) and 17.
4. | FUTURE ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
The following new standards were not yet effective for the year ended December 31, 2015, and have not been applied in preparing these consolidated financial statements.
IFRS 15 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers
The IASB has issued IFRS 15, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which will replace IAS 11, Construction Contracts and IAS 18, Revenue. The mandatory effective date of IFRS 15 is January 1, 2018. The objective of IFRS 15 is to establish a single, principles based model to be applied to all contracts with customers in determining how and when revenue is recognized. IFRS 15 also requires entities to provide users of financial statements with more informative and relevant disclosures. The Company will evaluate the impact of adopting IFRS 15 in its consolidated financial statements in future periods.
IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments
On July 24, 2014, the IASB issued the complete IFRS 9 (“IFRS 9 (2014)”). IFRS 9 (2014) differs in some regards from IFRS 9 (2013) which the Company early adopted effective April 1, 2014. IFRS 9 (2014) includes updated guidance on the classification and measurement of financial assets. The final standard also amends the impairment model by introducing a new ‘expected credit loss’ model for calculating impairment. The mandatory effective date of IFRS 9 (2014) is for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018 and must be applied retrospectively with some exemptions. Early adoption is permitted. The Company will evaluate the impact of adopting IFRS 9 (2014) in its consolidated financial statements in future periods.
IFRS 16 - Leases
In January 2016, the IASB issued IFRS 16, Leases. The objective of IFRS 16 is to bring all leases on-balance sheet for lessees. IFRS 16 requires lessees to recognize a “right of use” asset and a lease liability calculated using a prescribed methodology. The mandatory effective date of IFRS 16 is for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019. Early adoption is permitted provided that IFRS 15, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, is also adopted. The Company will evaluate the impact of adopting IFRS 16 in its consolidated financial statements in future periods.
5. | DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS |
Niobec
During the fourth quarter 2014, the Company signed a definitive agreement to sell its Niobec mine and the adjacent rare earth element (“REE”) deposit for cash proceeds of $500 million plus working capital adjustments, as well as an additional $30 million when the adjacent REE deposit goes into commercial production. A 2% gross proceeds royalty will be payable on any REE production.

1 | Associates include Galane, INV Metals and Merrex which are publicly traded companies incorporated in Canada. The Company’s ownership interest in the associates as at December 31, 2015 is as follows: Galane - 41% (December 31, 2014 - 42%), INV Metals - 47% (December 31, 2014 - 47%) and Merrex - 25% (December 31, 2014 - 16%). |
2 | IAMGOLD includes Galane’s and INV Metals’ results on a three-month lag. |
3 | On November 24, 2015, IAMGOLD converted $2.5 million of a non-trade receivable balance from Merrex in exchange for 21.5 million common shares of Merrex, which resulted in an increase in the Company’s ownership of Merrex’s issued and outstanding shares to 25%. Due to the increased ownership, the method of accounting for the investment changed from classification of a financial asset through other comprehensive income to an investment in associate which is accounted for using the equity method. Upon changing the accounting method, the investment was recorded at its fair value of $5.1 million. |
4 | The Company’s joint ventures are not publicly listed entities and consequently quoted market prices are not available. |

Construction in progress, excluding capitalized borrowing costs, at December 31, 2015 and 2014 included capital expenditures related to projects at the following: Rosebel (2015 - $nil; 2014 - $24.5 million), Essakane (2015 - $0.9 million; 2014 - $0.2 million) and Westwood (2015 - $nil; 2014 - $nil).
In 2015, borrowing costs attributable to qualifying assets associated with the Essakane, Rosebel and Westwood mines capitalized in construction in progress and capitalized stripping totaled $13.2 million (2014 - $25.9 million) at a weighted average interest rate of 6.99% (2014 - 6.99%).
As at December 31, 2015, mining properties included capitalized stripping costs of $181.6 million (2014 - $189.0 million). Stripping costs of $43.0 million were capitalized during 2015 (2014 - $59.1 million), and $50.4 million were depreciated during 2015 (2014 - $40.5 million).
As at December 31, 2015, the carrying amount of plant and equipment included $1.8 million (December 31, 2014 - $37.3 million) of equipment held under finance leases. The finance leases had varying terms, between two to four years, and contained purchase options which the Company assessed at inception of the lease as being reasonable to exercise at maturity. In December 2015, the Company purchased certain assets held under finance leases at an amount equal to their carrying value of $28.3 million.

(a) | Asset retirement obligations |
The Company’s activities are subject to various laws and regulations regarding environmental restoration and closure provisions for which the Company estimates future costs. These provisions may be revised on the basis of amendments to such laws and regulations and the availability of new information, such as changes in reserves corresponding to a change in the mine life and discount rates, changes in estimated costs of reclamation activities and acquisition or construction of a new mine. The Company makes a provision based on a best estimate of the future cost of rehabilitating mine sites and related production facilities on a discounted basis.

(b) | Provisions for litigation claims and regulatory assessments |
By their nature, contingencies will only be confirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events. The assessment of contingencies inherently involves the exercise of significant judgments and estimates of the outcome of future events.
The Company operates in various countries and may be subject to assessments by the regulatory authorities in each of those countries, which can be complex and subject to interpretation. Assessments may relate to matters such as income and other taxes, duties and environmental matters. The Company is diligent and exercises informed judgment to interpret the provisions of applicable laws and regulations as well as their application and administration by regulatory authorities to reasonably determine and pay the amounts due. From time to time, the Company may undergo a review by the regulatory authorities and in connection with such reviews, disputes may arise with respect to the Company’s interpretations about the amounts due and paid.
IAMGOLD CORPORATION
2015 CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
PAGE 66
The Company is also subject to various litigation actions. In-house counsel, outside legal advisors, and other subject matter experts assess the potential outcome of litigation and regulatory assessments. Accordingly, the Company establishes provisions for future disbursements considered probable.
As at December 31, 2015, the Company did not have any material provisions for litigation claims or regulatory assessments. Further, the Company does not believe claims or regulatory assessments, for which no provision has been recorded, will have a material impact on the financial position of the Company.

Unrecognized Deferred Tax Assets
Deferred tax assets have not been recognized in respect of the following deductible temporary differences in Canada:
December 31, | December 31, | |||||||
2015 | 2014 | |||||||
Non-capital losses | $ | 641.3 | $ | 278.4 | ||||
Net capital losses | 60.2 | 66.1 | ||||||
Exploration and evaluation assets | 99.6 | 71.9 | ||||||

Other deductible temporary differences | 42.5 | 35.2 | ||||||
|
|
|
| |||||
$ | 1,012.4 | $ | 652.1 | |||||
|
|
|
|
As at December 31, 2015 the Company did not recognize the benefit related to the deferred tax assets for the above related items in its consolidated financial statements as management did not consider it probable that the Company will be able to realize the deferred tax assets in the future.
The non-capital loss carry forwards begin to expire in 2026. The net capital loss carry forward may be carried forward indefinitely, but can only be used to reduce capital gains. The exploration and development expenses may be carried forward indefinitely.
The Company has not recognized tax benefits on loss carry forwards generated in countries other than Canada where the probable criteria for the recognition of deferred tax assets has not been met. Consequently, deferred tax assets have not been recognized on the loss carry forwards of $269.9 million in these jurisdictions as it is not probable that the deferred tax asset will be realized in the future.
The Company has not recognized a deferred tax liability on temporary differences of $362.1 million (December 31,2014 - $353.9 million) related to investments in certain subsidiaries and joint ventures because the Company can control the reversal of the temporary differences and the temporary differences are not expected to reverse in the foreseeable future.
The Company designates all dividends paid to its shareholders to be eligible dividends.

18. | LONG-TERM DEBTAND CREDIT FACILITIES |
(a) | Senior unsecured notes |
On September 21, 2012, the Company issued at face value $650 million of senior unsecured notes (“Notes”) with an interest rate of 6.75% per annum. The Notes are denominated in U.S. dollars and mature on October 1, 2020. Interest is payable in arrears in equal semi-annual installments on April 1 and October 1.
Except as noted below, the Notes are not redeemable, in whole or part, by the Company until October 1, 2016. On and after October 1, 2016, the Company may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at the relevant redemption price (expressed as a percentage of the principal amount of the Notes) and accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes up to the redemption date. The redemption price for the Notes during the12-month period beginning on October 1 of each of the following years is: 2016 - 103.375%; 2017 - 101.688%; and 2018 and thereafter - 100%.
Prior to October 1, 2016, the Company may redeem some or all of the Notes at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes plus a “make-whole” premium for accrued and unpaid interest.
The Company may from time to time seek to retire or purchase for cash its outstanding debt securities in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. Such repurchases, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. In March 2015, the Company purchased at face value $5.4 million of its Notes for cash consideration of $4.5 million. In September 2015, the Company purchased at face value an additional $9.6 million of its Notes for cash consideration of $7.0 million. The resulting gain, net of transaction costs, for the year ended December 31, 2015 was $3.5 million. These amounts were recognized in Interest income and derivatives and other investment gains in the Consolidated statements of earnings (refer to note 30).
Under the indenture governing the Notes, if the Company makes certain asset sales, such as the sale of the Niobec mine and the Diavik royalty (refer to notes 5 and 14, respectively), it may use an amount equal to the net proceeds to repay

PAGE 71
certain debt obligations and/or reinvest, or commit to reinvest, in the Company’s business, within 365 days after the applicable asset sale. At the end of the 365-day period, if there remains $50 million or more of the net proceeds that the Company has not used in this manner, the Company would be required to use any such excess proceeds to offer to purchase the Notes at par in the manner described in the indenture.
The following are the contractual maturities related to the Notes, including interest payments:

(b) | Credit facilities |
The Company has a four-year $500 million unsecured revolving credit facility. The maturity date of this credit facility is February 22, 2016. As at December 31, 2015, $70.0 million was drawn against the credit facility (December 31,2014 - $nil). The Company was in compliance with its credit facility covenants as at December 31, 2015. Subsequent to year end, the drawn balance was repaid and the credit facility was terminated.
On February 1, 2016, the Company entered into a four-year $250 million facility consisting of a fully committed $100 million secured revolving credit facility and a $150 million accordion. The key terms of the new facility include limitations on incremental debt, restrictions on distributions and financial covenants including Net Debt to EBITDA, Tangible Net Worth, Interest Coverage and Minimum Liquidity. The credit facility provides for an interest rate margin above London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), banker’s acceptance (“BA”) prime rate and base rate advances which varies according to the total net debt ratio of the Company. Fees related to the credit facility vary according to the total net debt ratio the Company. This credit facility is secured by some of the Company’s real assets, guarantees by some of the Company’s subsidiaries and pledges of shares in some of the Company’s subsidiaries. The maturity date of this credit facility is January 28, 2020.
The Company has a $75 million revolving credit facility for the issuance of letters of credit. The maturity date of this credit facility is April 22, 2016. As at December 31, 2015, $2.7 million (C$3.8 million) was drawn against the credit facility (December 31, 2014 - $61.4 million). The Company’s letters of credit guarantee certain asset retirement obligations; refer to note 15(a).
Credit facility issue costs are capitalized in other non-current assets. Amortization is calculated on a straight-line basis over the term of the credit facility. The carrying amount of credit facility issue costs, net of amortization as at December 31, 2015 was $0.1 million (December 31, 2014 - $0.8 million).

2015 CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(a) | Risks |
The Company is subject to various financial risks that could have a significant impact on profitability, levels of operating cash flow and financial conditions. Ongoing financial market conditions may have an impact on interest rates, gold prices and currency rates.
The Company is exposed to various liquidity, credit and market risks associated with its financial instruments, and manages those risks as follows:
(i) | Liquidity risk |
Liquidity risk is the risk that an entity will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset.
The Company’s approach to managing this risk is to ensure that there is sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage.
As at December 31, 2015, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents and gold bullion position at market value was $624.3 million (December 31, 2014 - $321.0 million). The Company had notes payable of $635.0 million as at December 31, 2015 (December 31, 2014 - $650.0 million).
As at December 31, 2015, $70 million was drawn against the Company’s $500.0 million total unsecured revolving credit facilities (December 31, 2014 - $nil). These funds were repaid subsequent to year end (refer to note 18(b)). As at December 31, 2015, the Company had committed $2.7 million (December 31, 2014 - $61.4 million) of its $75 million letters of credit revolving facility for the guarantee of certain asset retirement obligations.
On February 1, 2016, the Company entered into a four-year $250 million facility consisting of a fully committed $100 million secured revolving credit facility and a $150 million accordion (refer to note 18(b)).
The Company has a treasury policy designed to support management of liquidity risk as follows:
• | Invest in financial instruments in order to preserve capital, maintain required liquidity and realize a competitive rate of return while considering an appropriate and tolerable level of credit risk; |
• | Evaluate, review and monitor on a periodic basis, credit ratings and limits for counterparties with whom funds are invested; |
• | Invest or maintain investment in gold bullion until a combination of factors indicates that a sale or use of gold bullion is strategically advantageous for the Company, or as part of the overall treasury management; |
• | Monitor cash balances within each operating entity; |
• | Perform short- to medium-term cash flow forecasting, as well as medium and long-term forecasting incorporating relevant budget information; and |
• | Determine market risks inherent in the business, including currency, fuel and other non-gold commodities and evaluate, implement and monitor hedging strategies through the use of derivative instruments. |
Under the terms of the Company’s derivative agreements, counterparties cannot require the immediate settlement of outstanding derivatives, except upon the occurrence of customary events of default such as covenant breaches, including financial covenants, insolvency or bankruptcy. The Company generally mitigates liquidity risk associated with these instruments by spreading out the maturity of its derivatives over time.
(ii) | Credit risk |
Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the other party by failing to discharge an obligation. The maximum amount of credit risk is equal to the balance of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, derivative assets and restricted cash. Where applicable, the measurement of the fair value of derivatives accounts for counterparty credit risk.
The Company holds cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash in credit worthy financial institutions that comply with the Company’s investment policy and its credit risk parameters. The Company also has restricted cash held by the Government of Quebec.
For derivatives, the Company mitigates credit risk by entering into derivatives with high quality counterparties, limiting the exposure per counterparty, and monitoring the financial condition of the counterparties.
The credit risk related to gold receivables is considered minimal as gold is sold to creditworthy major banks and settled promptly, usually within the following month.
The credit risk is also related to receivables from related parties and governments. The receivables from governments primarily relate to value added tax and income tax.
(iii) | Market risk |
Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. For hedging activities, it is the risk that the fair value of a derivative might be adversely affected by a change in underlying commodity prices or currency exchange rates, and that this in turn affects the Company’s financial condition.
IAMGOLD CORPORATION
2015 CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
PAGE 73
The Company mitigates market risk by establishing and monitoring parameters that limit the types and degree of market risk that may be undertaken, establishing trading agreements with counterparties under which there are no requirement to post any collateral or make any margin calls on derivatives. Counterparties cannot require settlement solely because of an adverse change in the fair value of a derivative. Market risk comprises the following types of risks, share and commodity market price risk, currency risk, and interest rate risk.
(b) | Financial assets measured at fair value through Other comprehensive income |
Marketable securities fair value reserve
Share market price exposure risk is related to the fluctuation in the market price of marketable securities. The Company’s portfolio of marketable securities is not part of its core operations, and accordingly, gains and losses from these marketable securities are not representative of the Company’s performance during the period. Consequently, the Company has designated all of its investments in marketable securities to be measured at fair value through Other comprehensive income (OCI). The Company’s portfolio of marketable securities is primarily focused on the mining sector and relates entirely to investments in equity securities.
During the years ended December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company disposed of certain marketable securities that were no longer considered to be strategic to the Company.

At December 31, 2015, the impact of an increase of 10% in the fair value of marketable securities and warrants would have resulted in an increase in unrealized gains, net of tax of $1.0 million that would be included in other comprehensive income and $0.2 million in net earnings. The impact of a decrease of 10% in the fair value of marketable securities would have resulted in a decrease in unrealized gains, net of tax, of $1.0 million that would be included in other comprehensive income and $0.2 million in net earnings.

A total loss of $28.4 million (2014 - $0.3 million gain) relating to currency exchange rate risk contracts was reclassified or adjusted from the cash flow hedge reserve. There was no gain/loss reclassified or adjusted from the cash flow hedge reserve in 2015 or 2014 that relate to oil and fuel market price risks.
In the fourth quarter 2015, the Company early terminated certain currency hedge contracts with an unrealized loss of $7.0 million. An amount of $4.7 million remains in Accumulated other comprehensive income related to hedged future operating cash flows that are still expected to occur in 2016. An amount of $2.3 million was adjusted out of the cash flow hedge reserve and into Property, plant and equipment due to the related hedged cash flows not being expected to be recovered as they relate to the Doyon CGU for which the Company recognized an impairment charge (refer to note 33).
There was no hedge ineffectiveness for the years ended December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014.
(ii) | Currency exchange rate risk |
Movements in the Canadian dollar (C$) and the Euro (€) against the U.S. dollar ($) have a direct impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company’s operations have exposure to these currencies; however, the Company’s functional currency and that of its subsidiaries is the U.S. dollar.
The Company manages its exposure to the Canadian dollar and the Euro by executing a combination of forward and option contracts. The Company’s objective is to hedge its exposure to these currencies resulting from operating and capital expenditure requirements at some of its mine sites and corporate offices.
The Company has designated forward and option contracts as cash flow hedges for its highly probable forecasted Canadian dollar and Euro expenditure requirements. The Company has elected to only designate the spot element of forward contracts and the change in the intrinsic value of options in the hedging relationships. The change in fair value of the time value component of options and the forward element of forward contracts are recorded in Other comprehensive income as a cost of hedging.
An economic relationship exists between the hedged items and the hedging instruments as the fair values of both the hedged items and hedging instruments move in opposite directions in response to the same risk. The hedge ratio is determined by dividing the quantity of the forward and option contracts by the quantity of the forecasted Canadian dollar and Euro expenditure exposures.
As at December 31, 2015, the Company had outstanding derivative contracts that qualified for hedge accounting. The periods in which the cash flows are expected to occur and the impact on the Consolidated statements of earnings, are as follows:
December 31, 2015 | 2016 | |

Canadian dollar option contracts (millions of C$) | 150.0 | |

(iii) | Oil and fuel market price risk |
Low sulfur diesel and fuel oil are key inputs to extract tonnage and, in some cases, to wholly or partially power operations. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) and Brent crude oil are components of diesel and fuel oil, respectively, such that changes in the price of crude oil directly impacts diesel and fuel oil costs. The Company established a hedging strategy to limit the impact of fluctuations in crude oil prices and to economically hedge future consumption of diesel and fuel oil at the Rosebel and Essakane mines. The Company has designated option and swap contracts as cash flow hedges for the crude oil component of its highly probable forecasted low sulfur diesel and fuel oil purchases.

2 | The Company sold put options and purchased call options with strike prices that fall within the given range. If crude oil market prices are below the strike price (low end of range) in 2016, the Company will incur a loss from the margin between the lower market price and the set put strike price. If crude oil prices are greater than the call strike price (high end of range) in 2016, the Company will benefit from the margin between the higher market price and the strike price. |
3 | The Company will purchase crude oil in 2017 at spot prices below $60/barrel. The Company purchased call options to protect against an increase in crude oil prices above $60/barrel. |
The fair value of these contracts, based on an increase or a decrease of 10% of the price, would have been as follows. The entire change in fair value would be recorded in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income.

The fair value hierarchy categorizes into three levels the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 inputs) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 inputs).
• | Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date. |
• | Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly such as those derived from prices. |
• | Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. |
There were changes in the classification of Level 1 and Level 3 financial instruments in the fair value hierarchy since December 31, 2014.
During 2015, equity instruments in a private company were converted to equity in a publicly listed company and as a result the equity instruments, valued at $2.0 million as at December 31, 2014, were reclassified from Level 3 to Level 1 resulting in a $1.0 million gain recognized in Other comprehensive income.
(a) | Financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis |
As at December 31, 2015, the Company’s assets and liabilities recorded at fair value were as follows:

(b) | Valuation techniques |
Marketable securities and warrants
The fair value of marketable securities and warrants included in Level 1 is determined based on a market approach. The closing price is a quoted market price from the exchange market which is the principal active market for the particular security. The fair value of warrants included in Level 2 is obtained through the use of Black-Scholes pricing model, which uses share price inputs and volatility measurements. The fair value of investments in equity instruments which are not actively traded is determined using valuation techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable and significant, and therefore were categorized as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. The Company used the latest transaction price for these securities, obtained from the entity, to value these marketable securities and warrants.

|
|
Bond fund investments
The fair value of bond fund investments included in Level 1 is measured using quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets.
Derivatives
For derivative contracts, the Company obtains a valuation of the contracts from counterparties of those contracts. The Company assesses the reasonableness of these valuations through internal methods and third-party valuations. The Company then calculates a credit valuation adjustment to reflect the counterparty’s or the Company’s own default risk. Valuations are based on the present value of market valuations considering interest rate and volatility, taking into account the credit risk of the financial instrument. Valuations of derivative contracts are therefore classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
Long-term debt
Long-term debt is accounted for at amortized cost, using the effective interest rate method. The fair value required to be disclosed is determined using quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets, and is therefore classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of long-term debt as at December 31, 2015 was $400.8 million (December 31,2014 - $490.0 million).
Investments in associates
Investments in associates are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis when an impairment charge or reversal is required to be recorded. The investment in Merrex was recorded at its fair value at the date of acquisition (refer to note 11). After application of the equity method, the fair value of an investment in associate is determined for purposes of assessing whether an impairment charge or reversal of a previously recorded impairment charge is required. For publicly traded companies, the Company determines the fair value of its investment in associates based on a market approach reflecting the closing price of the investment in the associate’s shares at the balance sheet date. Since there is a quoted market price, this is classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. As at December 31, 2015, Galane was measured at fair value and an impairment of $1.2 million was recognized (refer to note 11).
Finance lease liabilities
Finance lease liabilities are accounted for at amortized cost, using the effective interest rate method. The fair value required to be disclosed is determined using market interest rate inputs and is therefore classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy (refer to note 12).
FVLCD of CGUs
The FVLCD of CGUs were determined for purposes of the impairment assessment. The FVLCD was largely determined by calculating the net present value (“NPV”) of the future cash flows expected to be generated by the CGUs. FVLCD is classified within level 3 on the fair value hierarchy. Refer to note 33.
21. | CAPITAL MANAGEMENT |
IAMGOLD’s objectives when managing capital are to:
• | Ensure the Company has sufficient financial capacity to support its operations, current mine development plans, and long-term growth strategy; |

The Company is in a capital intensive industry that experiences lengthy development lead times as well as risks associated with capital costs and timing of project completion. Factors affecting these risks, which are beyond the Company’s control, include the availability of resources, the issuance of necessary permits, costs of various inputs and the volatility of the gold price.
The adequacy of the Company’s capital structure is assessed on an ongoing basis and adjusted as necessary after taking into consideration the Company’s strategy, the forward gold price, the mining industry, economic conditions and associated risks. In order to maintain or adjust its capital structure, the Company may adjust its capital spending, adjust the amount of dividend distributions, issue new shares, purchase shares for cancellation pursuant to normal course issuer bids, extend its credit facility, issue new debt, repay existing debt, or purchase or sell gold bullion.
In December 2013, the Company suspended future dividend payments in order to preserve its consolidated balance sheet, which is in line with its capital management strategy.
The Company’s cash and cash equivalents, and gold bullion position valued at the December 31, 2015 gold market price, was $624.3 million (December 31, 2014 - $321.0 million).

Flow-through common shares
In February 2015, the Company issued 13.8 million flow-through common shares at prices ranging between C$3.51 and C$4.14 per share for net proceeds of $39.3 million (C$50 million). The flow-through common shares were primarily issued to fund prescribed resource expenditures on the Westwood mine. Flow-through common shares require the Company to incur an amount equivalent to the proceeds of the issue on prescribed resource expenditures in accordance with the applicable tax legislation. As at December 31, 2015, there was no remaining unspent amount.
In the December 2015, the Company issued an additional 2.0 million flow-through common shares at prices ranging between C$1.86 and C$1.91 per share for net proceeds of $3.7 million (C$5.0 million). The flow-through common shares were issued to fund prescribed resource exploration expenditures in the provinces of Ontario and Quebec. Flow-through common shares require the Company to incur an amount equivalent to the proceeds of the issue on prescribed resource exploration expenditures in accordance with the applicable tax legislation. As at December 31, 2015, the entire amount raised through this issuance was unspent since the expenditures are required to be incurred during the course of the 2016 year.
Flow-through common shares of $38.1 million were recognized in equity based on the quoted price of the existing shares on the date of the issue less issuance costs. The $4.9 million difference between the amount recognized in common shares and the amount the investor paid for the shares is recognized as a deferred gain which is reversed into earnings as eligible expenditures are made. For the year ended December 31, 2015, $4.0 million was recognized as amortization of gain related

1 | The Doyon CGU consists of the Doyon, Mouska and Westwood mines. |
2 | Trelawney Mining and Exploration Inc. owns a 92.5% interest in the Côté Gold project. |
3 | Consists of impairments taken on individual assets within Rosebel - $5.0 million (2014 - $nil), Essakane - $0.8 million (2014 - $nil) and Westwood - $6.5 million (2014 - $nil). |
The Company performs impairment testing for its Property, plant and equipment and Exploration and evaluation assets when indications of potential impairment are identified.
As at December 31, 2015, the Company identified the following indicators of impairment relating to the assets below:
i) | Property, plant and equipment - the carrying amount of the Company’s net assets exceeded its market capitalization which, together with the annual update to the Company’s life of mine (“LOM”) plans and mineral reserves and resources and a $100 per ounce decline in the Company’s long-term gold price assumption, represented an indication of impairment. |
ii) | Exploration and evaluation assets - sufficient data existed to indicate that the carrying amount of the Côté gold project was unlikely to be recovered in full from successful development of the project or by sale under the current and foreseeable economic environment. |
Property, plant and equipment
Accordingly, the Company performed an impairment assessment to determine the recoverable amount of its CGUs. The assessment indicated that the carrying amount of the Doyon CGU exceeded its recoverable amount of $504.9 million. Accordingly, the Company recognized a pre-tax impairment charge of $209.0 million (December 31, 2014 - $nil).
The recoverable amounts of the CGUs were determined by calculating the fair value less costs of disposal (“FVLCD”), which has been determined to be greater than the value in use. The significant estimates and assumptions used in determining the FVLCD for the CGUs were LOM production profiles, future commodity prices, reserves and resources, discount rates, foreign exchange rates, values of un-modeled mineralization and capital expenditures. The estimates of future cash flows were derived from the most recent LOM plans which range from 8 to 18 years. LOM plans are typically developed annually and are based on management’s current best estimates of optimized mine and processing plans, future operating costs and capital expenditures.
For the 2015 assessment, the Company used an estimated gold price of $1,100 per ounce for 2016 increasing to $1,200 per ounce for 2020 and beyond based on observable market data including spot price and industry analyst consensus. For the 2014 assessment, the Company used an estimated gold price of $1,250 per ounce for 2015 and $1,300 for 2016 and beyond.
The future cash flows for each gold mine were discounted using a real weighted average cost of capital, which reflects specific market risk factors for each mine. A real weighted average cost of capital of between 5.0% and 6.0% (December 31, 2014 - between 5.0% and 6.5%) was used to calculate the recoverable amounts of the Company’s CGUs.
Un-modeled mineralization for the CGUs was valued based on recent market transactions at $45 per ounce (December 31, 2014 - $45 per ounce). Revenues and costs incurred in currencies other than the U.S. dollar were translated to U.S. dollar equivalents based on long-term forecasts of foreign exchange rates, on a currency by currency basis, obtained from independent sources of economic data. Oil prices are a significant component of cash costs of production and were estimated based on the current price, forward prices, forecasts of future prices from third party sources and the Company’s hedging program.
Exploration and evaluation assets
The Company completed a review of the Côté Gold project in the fourth quarter of 2015 and determined that the carrying amount of the asset was unlikely to be recovered in full from successful development or by sale as the Company has no definitive plans to develop the project in the current and forseeable economic environment. Accordingly, the Company recognized a pre-tax impairment charge of $400.0 million (December 31, 2014 - $nil).
IAMGOLD CORPORATION
ANNUAL MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS – DECEMBER 31, 2015
PAGE 87
The recoverable amount of $143.7 million for the Côté Gold project was determined by calculating the FVLCD using a discounted cash flow model developed based on the Company’s best estimate of future cash flows assuming development proceeds. The future cash flows were based on the project’s technical studies and consultation with technical advisors. The FVLCD has been determined to be greater than the value in use. The significant estimates and assumptions used in determining the FVLCD for the Côté Gold project were the production profile, future commodity prices, resources, discount rate, foreign exchange rates, value of un-modeled mineralization, capital expenditures, future operating costs and the estimated timing of commencement of production.
For the 2015 assessment, the Company used gold price, oil price and foreign exchange rate assumptions consistent with those used for assessing Property, plant and equipment.
The future cash flows for the Côté Gold project were discounted using a real weighted average cost of capital, which reflects specific market risk factors for the project. A real weighted average cost of capital of 6.0% was used to calculate the recoverable amount of the asset.
Un-modeled mineralization for the exploration and evaluation asset was valued at $16 per ounce based on recent market transactions considering the early stage of development of the project.
