NOTES TO INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTH PERIODS ENDED JUNE 30, 2019 AND 2018
(figures in tables are expressed in thousands of Canadian dollars, except per share amounts) |
| 1. | Description of Business and Nature of Operations |
Alexco Resource Corp. (“Alexco” or the “Corporation”) was incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (Yukon) on December 3, 2004 and commenced operations on March 15, 2005. Effective December 28, 2007, it was continued under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia). The Corporation operates two principal businesses: a mining business, comprising mineral exploration and mine development in Yukon Territory; and through Alexco Environmental Group (“AEG”), an environmental services business, providing consulting, remediation solutions and project management services in respect of environmental permitting and compliance and site remediation, primarily in Canada and the United States.
The Corporation is in the process of exploring and developing its mineral properties. The recoverability of the amounts shown for mineral properties is dependent upon the existence of economically recoverable mineral resources or reserves, successful permitting, the ability of the Corporation to obtain necessary financing to complete exploration and development, and upon future profitable production or proceeds from disposition of each mineral property. The carrying amounts of mineral properties are based on a disposal of part of a mineral property interest, costs incurred to date, adjusted for depletion and impairments and do not necessarily represent present or future values.
Alexco is a public company which is listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange and the NYSE American Stock Exchange (under the symbol AXU). The Corporation’s corporate head office is located at Suite 1225, Two Bentall Centre, 555 Burrard Street, Box 216, Vancouver, BC, Canada, V7X 1M9.
| 2. | Basis of Preparation and Statement of Compliance |
These interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. These interim financial statements follow the same accounting policies and methods of computation as compared with the most recent annual financial statements (except for those policies disclosed in Note 3), being for the year ended December 31, 2018, which were prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. Accordingly, these interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Corporation’s most recent annual financial statements. Notes 3 and 11 discloses the effects of the adoption of new IFRS pronouncements and changes in existing accounting policies for all periods presented. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements were approved for issuance by the Board of Directors on August 13, 2019.
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis and has been prepared under the historical cost method, except for derivative financial instruments, share-based compensation and certain financial assets which have been measured at fair value. All figures are expressed in Canadian dollars unless otherwise indicated.
| 3. | Summary of New and Amended Accounting Policies |
Investments in Joint Ventures
The Corporation has entered into a joint arrangement. A joint arrangement can take the form of a joint venture or joint operation. All joint arrangements involve a contractual arrangement that establishes joint control, which exists only when decisions about the activities that significantly affect the returns of the investee require unanimous consent of the parties sharing control. A joint operation is a joint arrangement in which the Corporation has rights to the assets and liabilities relating to the arrangement. A joint venture is a joint arrangement in which the Corporation has rights to only the net assets of the arrangement.
Investments in joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method. The equity method involves recording the initial investment at cost and subsequently adjusting the carrying value of the investment for the Corporation’s proportionate share of the profit and loss, other comprehensive income or loss and any other changes in the joint venture’s net assets such as dividends. The proportionate share of the joint venture’s profit or loss and other comprehensive income or loss is based on its most recent financial statements. Adjustments are made to align any inconsistencies between our accounting policies and the joint venture’s policies before applying the equity method.

NOTES TO INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTH PERIODS ENDED JUNE 30, 2019 AND 2018
(figures in tables are expressed in thousands of Canadian dollars, except per share amounts) |
If the Corporation’s share of the joint venture’s losses equal or exceeds the investment in the joint venture, recognition of further losses is discontinued. After the interest is reduced to zero, additional losses will be provided for and a liability recognized only to the extent that we have incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the joint venture. If the joint venture subsequently reports profits, then the Corporation resumes recognizing its proportionate share of profits only after its share of the profits equals the share of losses not recognized. At balance sheet date, the Corporation considers whether there any indicators of impairment in the joint venture. If indicators exist, the Corporation will determine if impairment to the joint venture will be recorded.
Adoption of IFRS 16: Leases
The Corporation adopted IFRS 16Leases (“IFRS 16”) effective January 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective approach. The modified retrospective approach does not require restatement of prior period financial information and continues to be reported under IAS 17,Leases(“IAS 17”) and IFRIC 4,Determining Whether an Arrangement Contains a Lease (‘IFRIC 4”). IFRS 16 provides a single lessee accounting model, requiring lessees to recognize a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and a lease obligation at the lease commencement date.
The Corporation completed its review of all existing operating leases and service contracts to identify contracts in scope for IFRS 16 and assessed contracts for embedded leases. A contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset, and the Corporation has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of the asset during the term of the arrangement. The Corporation incorporates both the lease and non-lease components as part of the total lease payment, as the Corporation elected not to separate non-lease components.
The Corporation, on adoption of IFRS 16, recognized lease liabilities in relation to office leases which had previously been classified as operating leases under the principles of IAS 17. In relation, under the principles of the new standard these leases are measured as lease liabilities at the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted using the Corporation’s incremental borrowing rate as at January 1, 2019. The associated ROU assets have been measured at an amount equal to the lease liability on January 1, 2019. The ROU asset is subsequently depreciated from the commencement date to the earlier of the end of the lease term, or the end of the useful life of the asset. Furthermore, the ROU asset may be reduced due to impairment losses.
On initial adoption, the Corporation recorded right-of-use assets of $1,883,000 within property, plant and equipment, measured at an amount equal to the lease liability. The Corporation has elected to use the following practical expedients permitted under the standard:
| • | Apply a single discount rate to a portfolio of leases with similar characteristics; |
| • | Account for leases with a remaining term of less than twelve (12) months as at January 1, 2019 as short-term leases, recognized as an expense over the lease term; and |
| • | Account for lease payments as an expense and not recognize a ROU asset if the underlying asset is of low dollar value (less than $5,000 CAD). |
The following table reconciles the Corporation’s operating lease commitments at December 31, 2018, as previously disclosed in the Corporation’s annual consolidated financial statements, to the lease liability recognized on adoption of IFRS 16 at January 1, 2019.

The following is the amended accounting policy as a result of the adoption of IFRS 16.
Leases
The ROU asset is initially recorded at cost, which comprises the initial amount of the lease liability and any initial direct costs incurred less any lease payments made at or before the initial adoption date. The ROU is depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the asset or the lease term. The lease term includes periods covered by an option to extend if the Corporation’s intention is to exercise that option. The ROU asset is periodically reduced by impairment losses, if any, and adjusted for re-measurements of the lease obligation.
The Corporation elected to apply the practical expedient not to recognize ROU assets and lease liabilities for short-term leases that have a lease term of twelve months or less and leases of low value assets. These lease payments associated with these leases are recognized as an expense over the lease term.
The lease liability is measured at the present value of the expected lease payments over the lease term, discounted at the implicit rate in the lease; if the rate cannot be determined, the incremental borrowing rate is used. The liability is increased for the passage of time and payments on the lease are offset against the lease liability. The liability is subsequently re-measured when there is a change in the lease agreement, such as a change in future lease payments or if the Corporation decides to purchase, extend or terminate the lease option. When the lease liability is re-measured, an adjustment is applied to the carrying value of the ROU asset.

On October 2, 2008 (with subsequent amendments on October 20, 2008, December 10, 2008, December 22, 2009, March 31, 2010, January 15, 2013, March 11, 2014 and June 16, 2014), the Corporation entered into a silver purchase agreement (the "SPA") with Wheaton under which Wheaton will receive 25% of the life of mine payable silver produced by the Corporation from its Keno Hill Silver District properties. The SPA anticipated that the initial silver deliveries would come from the Bellekeno property. Under the SPA, the Corporation received up-front deposit payments from Wheaton totaling US$50,000,000, and received further payments of the lesser of US$3.90 (increasing by 1% per annum after the third year of full production) and the prevailing market price for each ounce of payable silver delivered, if as and when delivered. After the initial 40 year term of the SPA, the Corporation is required to refund the balance of any advance payments received and not yet notionally reduced through silver deliveries. The Corporation would also be required to refund the balance of advance payments received and not yet reduced if Wheaton exercised its right to terminate the SPA in an event of default by the Corporation. As of September 2013, Bellekeno mining operations were suspended in light of a low silver price environment.
On March 29, 2017 the Corporation and Wheaton amended the SPA (the “Amended SPA, such that Wheaton will continue to receive 25% of the life of mine payable silver from the Keno Hill Silver District with a variable production payment based on monthly silver head grade and monthly silver spot price. The actual monthly production payment from Wheaton will be determined based on the monthly average silver head grade at the mill and the monthly average silver spot price, as determined by a grade and pricing curve with an upper ceiling grade of 1,400 grams per tonne (“g/t”) silver and price of US$25 per ounce of silver and a floor grade of 600 g/t silver and price of US$13 per ounce of silver. Additional terms of the amendment include a date for completion of the 400 tonne per day mine and mill completion test, which is reset to December 31, 2020. If the completion test is not satisfied by December 31, 2020, the Corporation will be required to pay a capacity related refund to Wheaton in the maximum amount of US$8,788,000, which can be further proportionately reduced by mine production and mill throughput exceeding 322 tonnes per day for a 30 day period prior to December 31, 2020. The Amended SPA is secured against the Corporation’s mineral properties until repayment of the original deposit of US$50,000,000.
In consideration of the foregoing amendments, the Corporation issued 3,000,000 shares to Wheaton with a fair value of $6,600,000 (US$4,934,948). Under the terms of the Amended SPA, the original US$50,000,000 deposit was notionally reduced by this amount. The variability in the future cash flows to be received from Wheaton upon extraction and delivery of their 25% interest of future production is considered an embedded derivative within this host contract under IFRS 9,Financial Instruments. The embedded derivative asset was initially recorded at fair value based on the value of the consideration paid to Wheaton and is to be re-measured at fair value on a recurring basis at each period end with changes in value being recorded within the Statement of Loss.
As at June 30, 2019, the fair value of the embedded derivative was calculated based on the discounted future cash flows associated with the difference between the original US$3.90 per ounce production payment Wheaton would pay for each payable ounce delivered under the SPA and the new production payment under the Amended SPA which varies depending on the monthly silver head grade and monthly silver price. The model currently relies upon inputs from the pre-feasibility study (the “PFS”), including payable ounces delivered and calculated future silver head grade. This calculation will be further modified upon completion of further studies, mine plans and/or actual production. The valuation model for the embedded derivative has been updated to utilize a probability-based dynamic pricing structure as opposed to a static pricing structure. As such, the discount rate used and silver price assumptions are updated quarterly based on the risk-free yield curve and silver price forward curve at quarter end.

| 12. | Equity Investment Advance on Joint Venture |
AEG and a joint venture partner, JDS Energy and Mining Inc. (“JDS”), entered into agreement to acquire the abandoned Mount Nansen Mine site (“Mount Nansen”) from the Federal Government of Canada (“Canada”). AEG and JDS formed a limited partnership called Mount Nansen Remediation Limited Partnership (“MNR”), whereby Canada will pay MNR to remediate environmental contamination from previous mining activities at Mount Nansen. The contractual arrangement provides AEG and JDS with the benefit of the net assets of the joint arrangement, while the rights to the assets and liabilities rest primarily with MNR. AEG and JDS each owns a 50% interest with equal voting rights in MNR and will be jointly responsible for Mount Nansen project remediation work and will share equally in the project’s profitability. Under IFRS 11 this joint arrangement is classified as a joint venture and has been included in the consolidated financial statements using the equity method.
The interest in the joint venture is the carrying amount of the investment in the joint venture under the equity method together with any long-term interests that, in substance, form part of AEG’s net investment in the joint venture. After the joint venturer's interest is reduced to zero, a liability is recognized only to the extent that AEG has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the joint venture. If the joint venture subsequently reports profits, then AEG resumes recognizing its share of those profits only after its share of the profits equals the share of losses not recognized.

The Corporation’s decommissioning and rehabilitation provision consists of costs expected to be incurred in respect of future reclamation and closure activities at the end of the life of the Bellekeno, Flame & Moth, Bermingham, Lucky Queen and Onek mines. These activities include water treatment, land rehabilitation, ongoing monitoring, care and maintenance and other reclamation and closure related requirements.
The total inflation adjusted estimated cash flows required to settle the decommissioning and rehabilitation provision is estimated to be $6,444,000 (December 31, 2018 - $6,561,000), with the expenditures expected to be incurred substantially over the course of the next 18 years. In determining the carrying value of the decommissioning and rehabilitation provision as at June 30, 2019, the Corporation has used a risk-free discount rate of 1.64% (December 31, 2018 - 2.08%) and an inflation rate of 2.0% (December 31, 2018 - 2.0%) resulting in a discounted amount of $5,441,000 (December 31, 2018 - $5,204,000).

Investment in marketable securities | | Level 1 | | $ | 719 | | | $ | 736 | |
| | | | $ | 16,881 | | | $ | 10,431 | |
During the six month period ended June 30, 2019, the fair value of warrants were estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, assuming a risk-free interest rate of 1.52% (2018 - 1.90%) per annum, an expected life of options of 0.12 to 1.48 years (2018 - 1.12 years), an expected volatility of 64% to 74% (2018 - 116%) based on historical volatility and no expected dividends (2018 - nil).
During the six month period ended June 30, 2019, the fair value of the embedded derivative related to the Wheaton agreement was estimated using a probability-based dynamic pricing structure resulting in a mark-to-market adjustment of $6,487,000 (2018 - $663,000). The model currently relies upon inputs from the PFS announced on March 28, 2019, and considers payable ounces delivered and head grade. The model is updated quarterly for the discount rate used and silver price assumptions based on the risk-free yield curve and silver price forward curve at quarter end.
The carrying amounts of all of the Corporation’s other financial assets and liabilities, carried at amortized cost, reasonably approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature.

The Corporation had two operating segments during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, being firstly mining operations, including care and maintenance of the formerly operating Bellekeno mine, producing silver, lead and zinc in the form of concentrates (suspended in September 2013), as well as exploration, underground development and evaluation activities; and secondly environmental services carried out through AEG, providing consulting and project management services in respect of environmental permitting and compliance and site remediation and reclamation. The Corporation’s executive head office and general corporate administration are included within ‘Corporate and other’ to reconcile the reportable segments to the consolidated financial statements. An operating segment is a component of an entity that engages in business activities, operating results are reviewed by the chief operating decision maker with respect to resource allocation and for which discrete financial information is available. The chief operating decision maker for the Corporation is the Chief Executive Officer. Inter-segment transactions are recorded at amounts that reflect normal third-party terms and conditions, with inter-segment profits eliminated from the cost base of the segment incurring the charge. Revenue from non-Canadian customers of both operating segments was derived primarily from the United States.
