NOTES TO CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements - Unaudited | (Tabular amounts are expressed in thousands of US dollars) |
1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS
First Majestic Silver Corp. (the “Company” or “First Majestic”) is in the business of silver production, development, exploration, and acquisition of mineral properties with a focus on silver production in Mexico. The Company owns and operates six producing mines: the San Dimas Silver/Gold Mine, the Santa Elena Silver/Gold Mine, the La Encantada Silver Mine, the San Martin Silver Mine, the La Parrilla Silver Mine and the Del Toro Silver Mine.
First Majestic is incorporated in Canada with limited liability under the legislation of the Province of British Columbia and is publicly listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “AG”, on the Toronto Stock Exchange under the symbol “FR” and on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange under the symbol “FMV”. The Company’s head office and principal address is located at 925 West Georgia Street, Suite 1800, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, V6C 3L2.
2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard (“IAS”) 34, “Interim Financial Reporting”, and International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IFRS”). These condensed interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2018, as some disclosures from the annual consolidated financial statements have been condensed or omitted.
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis except for certain items that are measured at fair value including derivative financial instruments (Note 22(a)) and marketable securities (Note 14). All dollar amounts presented are in thousands of United States dollars unless otherwise specified.
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company and its controlled subsidiaries. Control exists when the Company has the power, directly or indirectly, to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. Intercompany balances, transactions, income and expenses are eliminated on consolidation.
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements were prepared using accounting policies consistent with those in the audited consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2018, except for the following:
Leases
On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted IFRS 16 - Leases ("IFRS 16") which superseded IAS 17 - Leases. IFRS 16 applies a control model to the identification of leases, distinguishing between a lease and a service contract on the basis of whether the customer controls the asset. Control is considered to exist if the customer has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of an identified asset and the right to direct the use of that asset. For those assets determined to meet the definition of a lease, IFRS 16 introduces significant changes to the accounting by lessees, introducing a single, on balance sheet accounting model that is similar to the finance lease accounting, with limited exceptions for short-term leases or leases of low value assets.
The Company adopted IFRS 16 on its effective date, using the modified retrospective application method, with the cumulative effect of initially applying the standard recorded as an adjustment to retained earnings and no restatement of comparative information. The Company has elected to measure its right-of-use assets at amounts equal to the associated lease liabilities as at the adoption date, which resulted in a $3.7 million increase in right-of-use assets (note 17) and lease liabilities (note 20), with no adjustment necessary to retained earnings.
The Company has elected to apply the available exemptions as permitted by IFRS 16 to recognize a lease expense on a straight line basis for short term leases (lease term of 12 months or less) and low value leases. The Company has also elected to apply the practical expedient whereby leases whose term ends within 12 months of the date of initial application would be accounted for in the same way as short term leases.
For certain leases, such as vehicles, the Company has also elected to account for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component.

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION (continued)
Leases (continued)
In transitioning to IFRS 16, the Company analyzed its contracts to identify whether they are or contain a lease arrangement. This analysis identified contracts containing leases that have an equivalent increase to both the Company’s right-of-use assets and lease liabilities. Upon the adoption of IFRS 16, the Company recognized additional right-of-use assets and lease liabilities primarily related to the Company’s equipment and building rental contracts, land easement contracts and service contracts that contain embedded leases for property, plant and equipment. The incremental borrowing rates for lease liabilities initially recognized on adoption of IFRS 16 was 5.8% to 12.4%. Due to the recognition of additional right-of-use assets and lease liabilities, during the three months ended March 31, 2019, depreciation expense increased by $0.3 million and financing costs increased by $0.1 million, respectively, under IFRS 16 compared to the previous standard. Additionally, operating cash flows increased by $0.3 million with a corresponding $0.3 million increase in financing cash outflows.
3. SIGNIFICANT ESTIMATES AND JUDGMENTS
The Company’s management makes judgments in its process of applying the Company’s accounting policies in the preparation of its unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements. In addition, the preparation of the financial data requires that the Company’s management to make assumptions and estimates of the impacts of uncertain future events on the carrying amounts of the Company’s assets and liabilities at the end of the reporting period, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates as the estimation process is inherently uncertain. Estimates are reviewed on an ongoing basis based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant under the circumstances. Revisions to estimates and the resulting impacts on the carrying amounts of the Company’s assets and liabilities are accounted for prospectively.
In preparing the Company’s unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company applied the critical judgments and estimates disclosed in note 3 of its audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018 and the following critical judgments and estimates in applying accounting policies:
Leases as a result of adopting IFRS 16
Identifying Whether a Contract Includes a Lease
IFRS 16 applies a control model to the identification of leases, distinguishing between a lease and a service contract on the basis of whether the customer controls the asset. The Company had to apply judgment on certain factors, including whether the supplier has substantive substitution rights, does the Company obtain substantially all of the economic benefits and who has the right to direct the use of that asset.
Estimate of Lease Term
When the Company recognizes a lease, it assesses the lease term based on the conditions of the lease and determines whether it will extend the lease at the end of the lease contract, or exercise an early termination option. As it is not reasonably certain that the extension or early termination options will be exercised, the Company determined that the term of its leases are the lesser of original lease term or the life of the mine. This significant estimate could affect future results if the Company extends the lease or exercises an early termination option.
Determining the Discount Rate for Leases
Determining the discount rate for leases IFRS 16 requires the Company to discount the lease payments using the rate implicit in the lease if that rate is readily available. If that rate cannot be readily determined, the lessee is required to use its incremental borrowing rate (“IBR”). The Company generally used its IBR rate when recording leases initially, since the implicit rates were not readily available due to information not being available from the lessor regarding the fair value of underlying assets and direct costs incurred by the lessor related to the leased assets. The IBR for each lease was determined on the commencement date of the lease and recalculated at the re-measurement date, where applicable.

4. ACQUISITION OF PRIMERO MINING CORP.
Description of the Transaction
On May 10, 2018, First Majestic completed the acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding common shares (the "Arrangement") of Primero Mining Corp. pursuant to the terms and conditions of an arrangement agreement (the “Arrangement Agreement”) between First Majestic and Primero dated January 11, 2018. Under the terms of the Arrangement Agreement, First Majestic issued an aggregate of 6,418,594 common shares to Primero shareholders, on the basis of 0.03325 of a First Majestic common share for each Primero common share (the "Exchange Ratio").
The Arrangement also provided for the issuance by First Majestic of an aggregate of 221,908 replacement stock options (the "Replacement Options") to the holders of outstanding Primero stock options, at exercise prices adjusted by the Exchange Ratio. Under the Arrangement, all existing warrants of Primero also became exercisable to acquire First Majestic shares at exercise prices adjusted by the Exchange Ratio ("Replacement Warrants"). After the effective date of the Arrangement, such warrants are exercisable for an aggregate of 366,124 common shares of the Company. The fair value of the Replacement Options and Replacement Warrants, determined using a Black-Scholes valuation model, resulted in a nominal value as the exercise prices of the options and warrants are significantly out-of-the-money based on the Exchange Ratio and underlying share price.
With this transaction, First Majestic added the San Dimas Silver/Gold Mine which is located approximately 130 km northwest of Durango, Durango State, Mexico. The mine is accessible via a 40 minute flight from Durango to the mine’s airstrip. The operation consists of an underground mine and a mill with a 2,500 tpd capacity.
Concurrently and in connection and as part of the Arrangement, First Majestic terminated the pre-existing silver purchase agreement with Wheaton Precious Metals Corp. and its subsidiary, Wheaton Precious Metals International Ltd. (“WPMI”), relating to the San Dimas Mine and entered into a new precious metal purchase agreement (the “New Stream Agreement”) with WPMI and FM Metal Trading (Barbados) Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of First Majestic. Pursuant to the New Stream Agreement, WPMI is entitled to receive 25% of the gold equivalent production (based on a fixed exchange ratio of 70 silver ounces to 1 gold ounce) at San Dimas in exchange for ongoing payments equal to the lesser of $600 (subject to a 1% annual inflation adjustment) and the prevailing market price, for each gold ounce delivered under the New Stream Agreement. As part of the restructuring of the stream agreement, WPMI received 20,914,590 common shares of First Majestic with an aggregate fair market value of approximately $143.1 million based on the closing price of First Majestic common shares on May 9, 2018 of $6.84. The final common share purchase consideration was determined based on the closing market price of First Majestic’s common shares on the day before the closing date of the Arrangement.
Management has concluded that Primero constitutes a business and, therefore, the acquisition is accounted for in accordance with IFRS 3 - Business Combinations. For the purpose of these consolidated financial statements, the purchase consideration has been allocated on a preliminary basis based on management’s best estimates at the time these condensed interim consolidated financial statements were prepared. The Company is continuing its review to determine the recoverability of value added tax receivables that are in arrears and the outcome of the APA Ruling (see Note 24 of the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2018) during the allowable measurement period, which shall not exceed one year from the acquisition date. Any future changes to the purchase price allocation may also result in adjustments to mining interests and deferred income taxes.

5. SEGMENTED INFORMATION
All of the Company’s operations are within the mining industry and its major products are precious metals doré and precious and base metals concentrates which are refined or smelted into pure silver, gold, lead and zinc and sold to global metal brokers. Transfer prices between reporting segments are set on an arms-length basis in a manner similar to transactions with third parties. Coins and bullion cost of sales are based on transfer prices.
A reporting segment is defined as a component of the Company that:
| |
• | engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses; |
| |
• | whose operating results are reviewed regularly by the entity’s chief operating decision maker; and |
| |
• | for which discrete financial information is available. |
For the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company's reporting segments includes its six operating mines in Mexico. Effective January 1, 2019, the Company no longer considers the La Guitarra mine, which was placed on care and maintenance on August 3, 2018 as a significant reporting segment. Accordingly, it has been grouped in the “others” category for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018. “Others” also consists primarily of the Company’s corporate assets including cash and cash equivalents, other development and exploration properties (Note 15), debt facilities (Note 19), intercompany eliminations, and corporate expenses which are not allocated to operating segments. Management evaluates segment performance based on mine operating earnings. Therefore, other income and expense items are not allocated to the segments. The segmented information for the comparative periods have been adjusted to reflect the Company's reporting segments for the period ended March 31, 2019 for consistency.

17. RIGHT-OF-USE ASSETS
The Company entered into operating leases to use certain land, building, mining equipment and corporate equipment for its operations. Upon the adoption of IFRS 16, which became effective January 1, 2019 (see note 2), the Company is required to recognize right-of-use assets representing its right to use these underlying leased asset over the lease term.
Right-of-use asset is initially measured at cost, equivalent to its obligation to payments over the term of the respective operating leases, and subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Depreciation is recorded on a straight-line basis over the shorter period of lease term and useful life of the underlying asset.
Right-of-use assets are comprised of the following:

(a) | Convertible Debentures |
During the first quarter of 2018, the Company issued $156.5 million of unsecured senior convertible debentures (the “Notes”). The Company received net proceeds of $151.1 million after transaction costs of $5.4 million. The Notes mature on March 1, 2023 and bear an interest rate of 1.875% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears in March and September of each year.
The Notes are convertible into common shares of the Company at any time prior to maturity at a conversion rate of 104.3297 common shares per $1,000 principal amount of Notes converted, representing an initial conversion price of $9.59 per common share, subject to certain anti-dilution adjustments. In addition, if certain fundamental changes occur, holders of the Notes may be entitled to an increased conversion rate.
The Company may not redeem the Notes before March 6, 2021, except in the event of certain changes in Canadian tax law. At any time on or after March 6, 2021 and until maturity, the Company may redeem all or part of the Notes for cash if the last reported share price of the Company’s common shares for 20 or more trading days in a period of 30 consecutive trading days exceeds 130% of the conversion price. The redemption price will equal to the sum of: (i) 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be redeemed and (ii) accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date.

19. DEBT FACILITIES (continued)
| |
(a) | Convertible Debentures (continued) |
The Company is required to offer to purchase for cash all of the outstanding Notes upon a fundamental change, at a cash purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be purchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the fundamental change purchase date.
The component parts of the convertible debentures, a compound instrument, are classified separately as financial liabilities and equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangement and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument. A conversion option that will be settled by the exchange of a fixed amount of cash or another financial asset for a fixed number of the Company's own equity instrument is an equity instrument.
At initial recognition, net proceeds of $151.1 million from the Notes were allocated into its debt and equity components. The fair value of the debt portion was estimated at $124.8 million using a discounted cash flow model method with an expected life of five years and a discount rate of 6.14%. This amount is recorded as a financial liability on an amortized cost basis using the effective interest method using an effective interest rate of 6.47% until extinguished upon conversion or at its maturity date.
The conversion option is classified as equity and was estimated based on the residual value of $26.3 million. This amount is not subsequently remeasured and will remain in equity until the conversion option is exercised, in which case, the balance recognized in equity will be transferred to share capital. Where the conversion option remains unexercised at the maturity date of the convertible note, the balance will remain in equity reserves. Deferred tax liability of $7.1 million related to taxable temporary difference arising from the equity portion of the convertible debenture was recognized in equity reserves.
Transaction costs of $5.4 million that relate to the issuance of the convertible debentures were allocated to the liability and equity components in proportion to the allocation of the gross proceeds. Transaction costs relating to the equity component are recognized directly in equity. Transaction costs relating to the liability component are included in the carrying amount of the liability component and are amortized over the life of the convertible debentures using the effective interest method.
| |
(b) | Revolving Credit Facility |
On May 10, 2018, the Company entered into a $75.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility ("Revolving Credit Facility") with the Bank of Nova Scotia, Bank of Montreal and Investec Bank PLC, as lenders. The Revolving Credit Facility will mature on its third anniversary date. Interest on the drawn balance will accrue at LIBOR plus an applicable range of 2.25% to 3.5% while the undrawn portion is subject to a standby fee with an applicable range of 0.5625% to 0.875%, dependent on certain financial parameters of First Majestic. As at March 31, 2019, the applicable rates were 6.1% and 0.875%, respectively.
These debt facilities are guaranteed by certain subsidiaries of the Company and are also secured by a first priority charge against the assets of the Company, and a first priority pledge of shares of the Company’s subsidiaries.
The Revolving Credit Facility includes financial covenants, to be tested quarterly on a consolidated basis, requiring First Majestic to maintain the following: (a) a leverage ratio based on total debt to rolling four quarters adjusted EBITDA of not more than 3.00 to 1.00; (b) an interest coverage ratio, based on rolling four quarters adjusted EBITDA divided by interest payments, of not less than 4.00 to 1.00; and (c) tangible net worth of not less than $563.5 million plus 50% of its positive earnings subsequent to June 30, 2018. The debt facilities also provide for negative covenants customary for these types of facilities and allows the Company to enter into finance leases up to $30.0 million. As at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company was in compliance with these covenants.

20. LEASE LIABILITIES
The Company has finance leases, operating leases and equipment financing liabilities for various mine and plant equipment, office space and land. Finance leases and equipment financing obligations require underlying assets to be pledged as security against the obligations and all of the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of the underlying asset being transferred to the Company. For operating leases, the Company controls but does not have ownership of the underlying right-of-use assets.
Lease liabilities are initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be readily determined, the Company's incremental borrowing rate. Lease liabilities are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method, and adjusted for interest and lease payments.
Certain lease agreements may contain lease and non-lease components, which are generally accounted for separately. For certain equipment leases, such as vehicles, the Company has elected to account for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component.
The movement in lease liabilities during the three months ended March 31, 2019 and year ended December 31, 2018, respectively, are comprised of the following:

20. LEASE LIABILITIES (continued)
(b) Operating Leases
Upon the adoption of IFRS 16, the Company recognized $3.7 million in operating lease liabilities as at January 1, 2019, primarily related to certain equipment and building rental contracts, land easement contracts and service contracts that contain embedded leases for property, plant and equipment.
These operating leases have remaining lease terms of one to 10 years, some of which include options to terminate the leases within a year, with incremental borrowing rates ranging from 5.8% to 12.4%.
(c) Equipment Financing
During 2017, the Company entered into a $7.9 million credit facility with repayment terms ranging from 12 to 16 equal quarterly installments in principal plus related interest. The facility bears an interest rate of LIBOR plus 4.60%. Proceeds from the equipment financing were primarily used for the purchase and rehabilitation of property, plant and equipment. The equipment financing is secured by certain equipment of the Company and is subject to various covenants, including the requirement for First Majestic to maintain a leverage ratio based on total debt to rolling four quarters adjusted EBITDA. As at March 31, 2019 and year ended December 31, 2018, the Company was in compliance with these covenants.
As at March 31, 2019, the net book value of property, plant and equipment includes $4.6 million (December 31, 2018 - $4.6 million) of equipment pledged as security for the equipment financing.
21. SHARE CAPITAL
| |
(a) | Authorized and issued capital |
The Company has unlimited authorized common shares with no par value. The movement in the Company’s issued and outstanding capital during the period is summarized in the consolidated statements of changes in equity.
In May 2018, the Company completed an arrangement agreement to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of Primero by issuing 27,333,363 common shares at a price of $6.84 (CAD$8.80) based on the Company’s quoted market price as at the acquisition date. See Note 4 for details.

22. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RELATED RISK MANAGEMENT
The Company’s financial instruments and related risk management objectives, policies, exposures and sensitivity related to financial risks are summarized below.
|
| | |
(a) | | Fair value and categories of financial instruments |
| | |
| | Financial instruments included in the consolidated statements of financial position are measured either at fair value or amortized cost. Estimated fair values for financial instruments are designed to approximate amounts for which the instruments could be exchanged in an arm’s-length transaction between knowledgeable and willing parties. |
| | |
| | The Company uses various valuation techniques in determining the fair value of financial assets and liabilities based on the extent to which the fair value is observable. The following fair value hierarchy is used to categorize and disclose the Company’s financial assets and liabilities held at fair value for which a valuation technique is used: |
| | |
| | Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities. |
| | |
| | Level 2: All inputs which have a significant effect on the fair value are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full contractual term. |
| | |
| | Level 3: Inputs which have a significant effect on the fair value are not based on observable market data. |
The table below summarizes the valuation methods used to determine the fair value of each financial instrument:
|
| | |
Financial Instruments Measured at Fair Value | | Valuation Method |
Trade receivables (related to concentrate sales) | | Receivables that are subject to provisional pricing and final price adjustment at the end of the quotational period are estimated based on observable forward price of metal per London Metal Exchange (Level 2) |
| | |
Marketable securities | | Based on quoted market prices for identical assets in an active market (Level 1) as at the date of statements of financial position |
Silver futures derivatives | |
Foreign exchange derivatives | |
| | |
Financial Instruments Measured at Amortized Cost | | Valuation Method |
Cash and cash equivalents | | Approximated carrying value due to their short-term nature |
Trade and other receivables | | |
Value added taxes receivable | | |
Trade and other payables | | |
Debt facilities | | Assumed to approximate carrying value as discount rate on |
| | these instruments approximate the Company's credit risk. |

|
| | |
(b) | | Capital risk management |
| | |
| | The Company’s objectives when managing capital are to maintain financial flexibility to continue as a going concern while optimizing growth and maximizing returns of investments from shareholders. |
| | |
| | The Company monitors its capital structure and, based on changes in operations and economic conditions, may adjust the structure by repurchasing shares, issuing new shares, issuing new debt or retiring existing debt. The Company prepares annual budget and quarterly forecasts to facilitate the management of its capital requirements. The annual budget is approved by the Company’s Board of Directors. |
The capital of the Company consists of equity (comprising of issued capital, equity reserves and retained earnings or accumulated deficit), debt facilities, lease liabilities, net of cash and cash equivalents as follows:
|
| | | | | | | |
| March 31, 2019 | | December 31, 2018 |
Equity |
| $633,295 |
| |
| $594,573 |
|
Debt facilities | 150,225 |
| | 149,512 |
|
Lease liabilities | 9,134 |
| | 5,847 |
|
Less: cash and cash equivalents | (91,457 | ) | | (57,013 | ) |
|
| $701,197 |
| |
| $692,919 |
|
The Company’s investment policy is to invest its cash in highly liquid short-term investments with maturities of 90 days or less, selected with regards to the expected timing of expenditures from continuing operations. The Company expects that its available capital resources will be sufficient to carry out its development plans and operations for at least the next 12 months.
The Company is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements with the exception of complying with covenants under the debt facilities (Note 19) and lease liabilities (Note 20). As at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company was in compliance with these covenants.

22. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RELATED RISK MANAGEMENT (continued)
|
| | |
(c) | | Financial risk management |
| | |
| | The Company thoroughly examines the various financial instruments and risks to which it is exposed and assesses the impact and likelihood of those risks. These risks may include credit risk, liquidity risk, currency risk, commodity price risk, and interest rate risk. Where material, these risks are reviewed and monitored by the Board of Directors. |
| | |
| | Credit Risk |
| | |
| | Credit risk is the risk of financial loss if a customer or counterparty fails to meet its contractual obligations. The Company’s credit risk relates primarily to trade receivables in the ordinary course of business, value added taxes receivable and other receivables. |
| | |
| | As at March 31, 2019, value added taxes receivable was $49.9 million (2018 - $59.7 million), majority of which relates to Primero Empresa Minera, S.A. de C.V. ("PEM") due to filings in arrears when First Majestic acquired the entity. Since acquisition, the Company has accelerated its filings and reduced PEM's VAT receivables from $33.0 million to $27.6 million. The Company continues supplying additional information requested by the Servicio de Administración Tributaria (“SAT”) in response to the review process and the Company fully expects the amounts to be refunded in the future. |
| | |
| | The Company sells and receives payment upon delivery of its silver doré and by-products primarily through three international customers. Silver-lead concentrates and related base metal by-products are sold primarily through three international customers. All of the Company's customers have good ratings and payments of receivables are scheduled, routine and fully received within 60 days of submission; therefore, the balance of trade receivables owed to the Company in the ordinary course of business is not significant. |
| | |
| | The carrying amount of financial assets recorded in the consolidated financial statements represents the Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk. With the exception to the above, the Company believes it is not exposed to significant credit risk. |
| | |
| | Liquidity Risk |
| | |
| | Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they arise. The Company has in place a planning and budgeting process to help determine the funds required to support the Company’s normal operating requirements and contractual obligations. |
The following table summarizes the maturities of the Company’s financial liabilities as at March 31, 2019 based on the undiscounted contractual cash flows:
|
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Carrying Amount | | Contractual Cash Flows | | Less than 1 year | | 1 to 3 years | | 4 to 5 years | | After 5 years |

At March 31, 2019, the Company had working capital of $130.9 million (December 31, 2018 – $108.1 million). Total available liquidity at March 31, 2019 was $185.9 million, including $55.0 million of undrawn revolving credit facility. The Company believes it has sufficient cash on hand, combined with cash flows from operations, to meet operating requirements as they arise for at least the next 12 months.

(c) Financial risk management (continued)
|
|
Currency Risk |
|
The Company is exposed to foreign exchange risk primarily relating to financial instruments that are denominated in Canadian dollars or Mexican pesos, which would impact the Company’s net earnings or loss. To manage foreign exchange risk, the Company may occasionally enter into short-term foreign currency derivatives. The foreign currency derivatives are not designated as hedging instruments for accounting purposes. |
The sensitivity of the Company’s net earnings or loss and comprehensive income or loss due to changes in the exchange rate between the Canadian dollar and the Mexican peso against the U.S. dollar is included in the table below:

| | Commodity Price Risk |
| | |
| | The Company is exposed to commodity price risk on silver, gold, lead and zinc, which have a direct and immediate impact on the value of its related financial instruments and net earnings. The Company’s revenues are directly dependent on commodity prices that have shown volatility and are beyond the Company’s control. The Company does not use derivative instruments to hedge its commodity price risk to silver. |
The following table summarizes the Company’s exposure to commodity price risk and their impact on net earnings:

Interest Rate Risk |
|
The Company is exposed to interest rate risk on its short-term investments, debt facilities and lease liabilities. The Company monitors its exposure to interest rates and has not entered into any derivative contracts to manage this risk. The Company’s interest bearing financial assets comprise of cash and cash equivalents which bear interest at a mixture of variable and fixed rates for pre-set periods of time. |
|
As at March 31, 2019, the Company’s exposure to interest rate risk on interest bearing liabilities is limited to its debt facilities and lease liabilities. The Company’s equipment leases bear interest at fixed rates. |
|
Based on the Company’s interest rate exposure at March 31, 2019, a change of 25 basis points increase or decrease of market interest rate does not have a significant impact on net earnings or loss. |
