NOTES TO THE CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED |
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
(Expressed in thousands of United States dollars, except as otherwise stated) - Unaudited |
Three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 |
|
Tahoe Resources Inc. (“Tahoe”) was incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) on November 10, 2009. These condensed interim consolidated financial statements (“interim financial statements”) include the accounts of Tahoe and its wholly owned subsidiaries (together referred to as the “Company”). The Company’s principal business activities are the operation of mineral properties for the mining of precious metals and the exploration, development and acquisition of mineral interests in the Americas.
The Company’s registered office is located at 1500 Royal Centre, 1055 West Georgia Street, P.O. Box 11117, Vancouver, BC V6E 4N7, Canada.
The Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors authorized issuance of these interim financial statements on August 9, 2016.
These interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 -Interim Financial Reporting using accounting policies consistent with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IFRS”). As such, certain disclosures required by IFRS have been condensed or omitted. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto as at and for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 (“consolidated financial statements”). The Company’s interim results are not necessarily indicative of its results for a full year.
3. | SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
These interim financial statements have been prepared using the same accounting policies and methods of application as those disclosed in note 3 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements, except as disclosed below and in note 4. The following accounting policies were expanded, adopted or applied as a result of the acquisition of Lake Shore Gold Corp. (“Lake Shore Gold”) on April 1, 2016 with no material impact to the Company’s interim financial statements:
| i. | Note 3c) Basis of consolidationhas been expanded to include investments in associates and joint ventures as follows: |
An associate is an entity over which the Company has significant influence and that is neither a subsidiary nor an interest in a joint venture. The Company is presumed to have significant influence if it holds, directly or indirectly, 20% or more of the voting power of the investee. If the Company holds less than 20% of the voting power, other relevant factors are examined by the Company to determine whether it has significant influence.
Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements | 5 |
NOTES TO THE INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(expressed in 000’s of USD, except as otherwise stated) |
The factors that may enable the exercise of significant influence include but are not limited to: the proportion of seats on the board being assigned to the Company; the nature of the business decisions that require unanimous consent of the directors; the ability to influence the operating, strategic and financing decisions; and the existing ownership composition regarding the Company’s ability to exercise significant influence.
| ii. | Note 3h) Mineral interests, plant and equipmenthas been expanded to align the Company’s significant accounting policy for depreciation and depletion of mineral interests, plant and equipment with that of Lake Shore Gold as follows: |
Upon declaration of commercial production, the carrying amounts of mineral interests are depleted using the unit-of-production method (“UOP”) over the estimated life of mine based on proven and probable mineral reserves and, if appropriate, the portion of mineral resources where it is considered highly probable that those mineral resources will be economically extracted. The Company considers the portion of mineral resources highly probable to be economically extracted (converted to reserves) as being that for which the drill program and interpretation of results are near completion and which are included in the current mine plan.
If commercial production commences prior to the determination of proven and probable mineral reserves, depletion is calculated based on the mineable portion of the resource as defined in the life of mine plan.
For the three months ended June 30, 2016, all of the Company’s operating mines were depleted using the UOP method over the estimated life of mine based on proven and probable reserves and the portion of resources expected to be converted to mineral reserves (depletion at Shahuindo began May 1, 2016, the commencement of commercial production) (three and six months ended June 30, 2015: all operating mines which included the Escobal and La Arena mines were depleted using the UOP method over the estimated life of mine based on proven and probable reserves).
| iii. | Note 3l) Financial instrumentshas been expanded with descriptions of financial asset and liability groups and now includes financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and available for sale financial assets as follows: |
Financial assets and liabilities are recognized when the Company or its subsidiaries become party to the contracts that give rise to them and are classified as loans and receivables, financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss (“FVTPL”), held-to-maturity, available for sale financial assets and other liabilities, as appropriate. The Company considers whether a contract contains an embedded derivative when the entity first becomes a party to it. The embedded derivatives are separated from the host contract if the host contract is not measured at fair value through profit or loss and when the economic characteristics and risks are not closely related to those of the host contract. Reassessment only occurs if there is a change in the terms of the contract that significantly modifies the cash flows that would otherwise be required.
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
Financial assets at FVTPL include financial assets held for trading and financial assets designated upon initial recognition as at FVTPL. A financial asset is classified in this category principally for the purpose of selling in the short term, or if so designated by management. The Company holds warrants in certain public companies; the warrants are considered derivatives and measured at fair value, with changes in fair value at each period end recorded in net earnings (loss). Transaction costs are expensed as incurred.
NOTES TO THE INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(expressed in 000’s of USD, except as otherwise stated) |
Available for sale financial assets
Available for sale (“AFS”) financial assets are those non-derivative financial assets that are designated as such or are not classified as loans and receivables, held-to-maturity investments or financial assets at FVTPL. AFS financial assets are measured at fair value upon initial recognition and at each period end, with unrealized gains or losses being recognized as a separate component of equity in other comprehensive income until the investment is derecognized or until the investment is determined to be impaired, at which time the cumulative gain or loss previously reported in equity is included in net earnings (loss). The Company has classified its investments in certain public companies as available-for-sale.
Loans and receivables
Trade receivables, loans and other receivables that have fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market are classified as loans and receivable. Loans and receivable are initially recognized at the transaction value and subsequently carried at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Gains and losses are recognized in the statement of comprehensive income when the loans and receivables are derecognized or impaired, as well as through the amortization process. Interest income is recognized by applying the effective interest rate, except for short term receivables when the recognition of interest would be immaterial.
Other financial liabilities
Other financial liabilities, including borrowings, are recognized initially at fair value, net of transaction costs. After initial recognition, interest bearing loans and borrowings are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Gains and losses are recognized in net earnings (loss) when the liabilities are derecognized as well as through the amortization process. Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the Company has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the statement of financial position date, and are derecognized when, and only when, the Company’s obligations are discharged or they expire.

NOTES TO THE INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(expressed in 000’s of USD, except as otherwise stated) |
Derivative instruments
Derivative instruments, including embedded derivatives, are recorded at fair value on initial recognition and at each subsequent reporting period. Any gains or losses arising from changes in fair value on derivatives are recorded in the statement of comprehensive income.
Fair values
The fair value of quoted investments is determined by reference to market prices at the close of business on the statement of financial position date. Where there is no active market, fair value is determined using valuation techniques. These include using recent arm’s length market transactions; reference to the current market value of another instrument which is substantially the same; discounted cash flow analysis; and, pricing models.
Financial instruments that are measured subsequent to initial recognition are grouped into a hierarchy based on the degree to which the fair value is observable as follows:
Level 1 fair value measurements are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2 fair value measurements are those derived from inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices); and
Level 3 fair value measurements are those derived from valuation techniques that include inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
Impairment of financial assets
Financial assets, other than those recorded at FVTPL, are assessed for indicators of impairment at each period end. A financial asset is considered impaired when there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash flows of the investments have been adversely impacted.
If an available for sale asset is impaired, the change in fair value is transferred to net earnings (loss) in the period, including cumulative gains or losses previously recognized in other comprehensive income or loss. Reversals of impairment in respect of equity instruments classified as available for sale are not recognized in net earnings (loss) but included in other comprehensive income.
| iv. | Note 3u) Other comprehensive income (loss)has been added as follows: |
Other comprehensive income (loss) is the change in the Company’s net assets that results from transactions, events and circumstances from sources other than the Company’s shareholders and includes items that are not included in net profits such as unrealized gains and losses on financial assets classified as available for sale, net of income taxes and gains or losses on certain derivative instruments.
| v. | Note 3v) IAS 19 – Employee benefitshas been applied as follows: |
The Company has a defined contribution pension plan which covers certain of the Company’s employees. Under the plan provisions, the Company contributes a fixed percentage of the employees’ salaries to the pension plan. The employees are able to direct the contributions into a variety of investment funds offered by the plan. Pension costs associated with the Company’s required contributions under the plan are recognized as an expense when the employees have rendered service entitling them to the contribution and are charged to profit or loss, or capitalized to mining interests for employees directly involved in the specific projects.
NOTES TO THE INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(expressed in 000’s of USD, except as otherwise stated) |
| vi. | Note 3w) IAS 28 – Investments in associates and joint ventureshas been applied as follows: |
The Company’s investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method, the Company’s investment in an associate is initially recognized at cost and subsequently increased or decreased to recognize the Company's share of earnings and losses of the associate and for impairment losses after the initial recognition date. The Company’s share of an associate’s losses that are in excess of its investment in the associate are recognized only to the extent that the Company has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate. The Company's share of earnings and losses of associates are recognized in net earnings (loss) during the period.
After application of the equity method, the Company determines whether it is necessary to recognize an impairment loss on the Company’s investment in an associate. The Company determines at each statement of financial position date whether there is any objective evidence that the investment in the associate is impaired. If this is the case, the Company calculates the amount of impairment as the difference between the recoverable amount of the associate and its carrying value and recognizes the amount in net earnings (loss). When a group entity transacts with an associate of the Company, profit and losses are eliminated to the extent of the Company’s interest in the relevant associate.

5. | CRITICAL JUDGMENTS AND ESTIMATES IN APPLYING ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
The preparation of interim financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgments and estimates that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, contingent liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and applied prospectively.
Information about critical judgments and estimates in applying accounting policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the interim financial statements for the three months ended June 30, 2016 are consistent with those applied and disclosed in note 5 of the consolidated financial statements, except for the following critical judgment and estimate re-assessed as a result of the acquisition of Lake Shore Gold.
| a) | Currency of presentation |
The Company acquired a 100% interest in Lake Shore Gold Corp. (“Lake Shore Gold”) on April 1, 2016. The Company assessed the criteria and indicators under IFRS at the date of acquisition and determined the functional currency to be the USD. The functional currency is accounted for in accordance with IAS 21 –the effects of changes in exchange rates and was applied from the date of acquisition.
NOTES TO THE INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(expressed in 000’s of USD, except as otherwise stated) |
| b) | Estimated material in the mineral reserves |
The figures for mineral reserves and mineral resources are determined in accordance with National Instrument 43-101Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects(“NI 43-101”), issued by the Canadian Securities Administrators. NI 43-101 lays out the standards of disclosure for mineral projects including rules relating to the determination of mineral reserves and mineral resources. Management assesses the estimated mineral reserves and mineral resources used in the calculation of depletion at least annually, or whenever facts and circumstances warrant that an assessment should be made. Changes to estimates of mineral reserves and mineral resources and depletable costs including changes resulting from revisions to the Company's mine plans and changes in metal price forecasts can result in a change in future depletion rates.

| a) | Acquisition of 100% interest in Lake Shore Gold |
Terms of the Business Combination
On April 1, 2016 (the “Acquisition Date”), the Company completed the previously announced acquisition of Lake Shore Gold pursuant to a statutory plan of arrangement (the “Arrangement”). The Arrangement was approved by shareholders of the Company and the shareholders of Lake Shore Gold on March 31, 2016 and received final court approval on April 1, 2016.
The Arrangement was completed pursuant to the terms of a definitive arrangement agreement dated February 8, 2016 between the Company and Lake Shore Gold (the “Arrangement Agreement”). Pursuant to the terms of the Arrangement Agreement, Lake Shore Gold became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company on April 1, 2016 and all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Lake Shore Gold (each a “Lake Shore Gold Share”) were transferred to the Company in consideration for the issuance by the Company of 0.1467 of a common share for each Lake Shore Gold Share (each whole common share a “Tahoe Share”).
In connection with the closing of the Arrangement, the Company issued an aggregate of 69,239,629 Tahoe Shares to the former shareholders of Lake Shore Gold. The Company authorized the issuance of up to an additional 1,621,877 Tahoe Shares issuable upon the exercise of former stock options to acquire Lake Shore Gold Shares.
Total consideration paid was based on the April 1, 2016 opening price of Tahoe Shares on the TSX of CAD$12.75 and a CAD to USD foreign exchange rate of 0.7665 and is comprised of the following:
| | | Shares | | | | |
| | | Issued/Issuable | | | Consideration | |
| Fair value estimate of the Tahoe share consideration | | 69,239,629 | | $ | 676,670 | |
| Fair value estimate of the consideration for options(1) | | 1,621,877 | | | 8,436 | |
| Total consideration | | 70,861,506 | | $ | 685,106 | |
| (1) | The fair value of the options was determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Where applicable, the inputs and ranges used in the measurement of the fair value (CAD$) of the options are as follows: |
| Share price (CAD$) at April 1, 2016 | $ | 12.75 | |
| Exercise price (CAD$) | $ | 2.79-25.97 | |
| Expected volatility | | 48.41%-62.60% | |
| Expected life (years) | | 0.04-4.67 | |
| Expected dividend yield | | 2.46% | |
| Risk-free interest rate | | 0.54-0.62%% | |
| Fair value (CAD$) | $ | 0.00-9.65 | |
| April 1, 2016 CAD$ to USD$ exchange rate | $ | 0.77 | |
| Fair value (USD$) | $ | 0.01-7.40 | |
This acquisition has been accounted for as a business combination with Tahoe as the acquirer. As at the date of these interim financial statements, allocation of the purchase price has not been finalized as management is in the process of determining the fair values of identifiable assets and liabilities assumed, measuring the associated deferred income tax assets and liabilities, and determining the value of goodwill, if any.
The preliminary purchase price has been allocated to the following identifiable assets and liabilities based on their estimated fair values:
| Cash and cash equivalents | $ | 70,187 | |
| Trade and other receivables | | 4,930 | |
| Inventories | | 13,774 | |
| Other current and non-current assets | | 3,876 | |
| Property, plant and equipment | | 174,747 | |
| Mineral interests and exploration potential | | 513,044 | |
| Goodwill(1) | | 129,908 | |
| | | | |
| Accounts payable, accrued liabilities and other(2) | | (45,246 | ) |
| Lease obligation | | (16,589 | ) |
| Reclamation provision | | (5,601 | ) |
| Convertible debentures | | (105,693 | ) |
| Deferred tax liability | | (52,231 | ) |
| Total net assets acquired | $ | 685,106 | |
| (1) | Goodwill of $129,908 was recognized on the deferred tax liability generated on the business combination and the consideration in excess of the identified fair values of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. This excess was the result of the appreciation of Tahoe’s share price between the February 9, 2016 announcement of the share exchange ratio and the closing price on April 1, 2016 upon completion of the business combination. The total amount of goodwill that is expected to be deductible for tax purposes is $nil. |
| | |
| (2) | Accounts payable, accrued liabilities and other includes a liability of $2,131 relating to PSUs which were outstanding and not converted prior to the acquisition on April 1, 2016. The PSUs were converted into 211,442 commons shares of the Company during the three months ended June 30, 2016. |
NOTES TO THE INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(expressed in 000’s of USD, except as otherwise stated) |
Lake Shore Gold’s principal mining properties are its 100% owned Bell Creek and Timmins West gold mines (together the “Timmins mines”) located in northeastern Ontario, Canada (note 22).
Since the acquisition date of April 1, 2016, the revenues and net loss of Lake Shore Gold since April 1, 2016, the acquisition date, included in these consolidated financial statements are $39,127 and $(36,858), respectively. The net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2016 includes the impact of the non-cash loss on redemption of the convertible debentures of $32,304. Total transaction costs incurred relating to the acquisition and included in general and administrative expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 are $10,339 and $11,021, respectively. Included in these transaction costs are 455,019 common shares of the Company issued with a value of $5,332.
Had the acquisition occurred on January 1, 2016, the total pro-forma consolidated revenues and net earnings of the Company for the six months ended June 30, 2016 would have been $406,209 and $29,731, respectively.
The acquisition supports the Company’s growth strategy by adding high-quality, high-margin operating assets which will increase the sustainable production level, contribute to cash flow and diversify the Company’s operations.
Convertible Debentures
Lake Shore Gold had outstanding a class of 6.25% convertible unsecured debentures (the “Debentures”), which were governed by an indenture dated September 7, 2012, as supplemented effective April 1, 2016. On April 1, 2016, as a result of the completion of Tahoe’s acquisition of Lake Shore Gold, Lake Shore Gold gave notice of its offer to purchase in exchange for Tahoe Shares, all of its outstanding Debentures at 100% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest (the “Change of Control Offer”).
Concurrently with the Change of Control Offer, Lake Shore Gold gave notice of its election to redeem the Debentures on May 16, 2016 at a price equal to their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest. Lake Shore Gold elected to satisfy its obligation to repay the principal amount of the Debentures by issuing Tahoe Shares to the holders of the Debentures. The number of Tahoe Shares to be issued was determined by dividing the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Debentures redeemed by 95% of the volume weighted average trading price of Tahoe Shares for the 20 trading days ended on and including May 9, 2016.
Debentureholders maintained the right to convert the Debentures at any time prior to 5:00 pm (Toronto time) on May 13, 2016 at a conversion price of CAD$9.5433 per Tahoe Share, being a conversion rate of 104.7856 Tahoe Shares per $1,000 principal amount of the Debentures. An aggregate of 10,611,411 Tahoe Shares were issued pursuant to the exercise of conversion rights available to the debentureholders. The Debentures remaining outstanding after voluntary conversions were redeemed by Lake Shore Gold on May 16, 2016 for an aggregate of 122,264 Tahoe Shares, and the Debentures were delisted from trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange at the close of business that day. During the three months ended June 30, 2016, a non-cash loss of $32,304 was recognized on the redemption of the Lake Shore Gold convertible debentures as a result of the appreciation of Tahoe’s share price between the closing price on April 1, 2016 and completion of the redemption on May 16, 2016.

Goodwill typically arises on the Company’s business combinations due to: i) the ability of the Company to capture certain synergies through management of the acquired operation within the Company; and ii) the requirement to record a deferred tax liability for the difference between the assigned fair values and the tax bases of assets acquired and liabilities assumed.
The carrying amount of goodwill has been allocated to the following cash generating units and is included in the respective operating segment assets:

As part of the acquisition of Rio Alto on April 1, 2015, the Company acquired debt in the form of a $35,000 credit facility agreement (the “Loan”). The funds were used for general working capital purposes. As security for the Loan, the Company granted a charge over the shares of its subsidiary Empresa de Energia Yamobamba S.A.C. and the rights of collection of future cash flows derived from metal sales at the La Arena mine.
The Loan had an original one-year term, maturing June 16, 2015 and bearing interest at 30-day LIBOR plus 2.60% . Upon maturity, the loan was extended by an additional nine months to March 16, 2016 and was further amended to reflect a maturity date of April 16, 2016. All other terms remained per the original contract.
On April 8, 2016, the Loan was repaid using the proceeds of a new credit facility (note 12b)).
On April 8, 2016, the Company signed a credit agreement with an international bank for a credit facility (the “Facility”) for an aggregate amount of $35 million. The Facility bears interest at LIBOR plus 2.25% on the portion drawn. This rate will reset on October 11, 2016. The Facility has a 2-year term, maturing April 9, 2018.
On April 8, 2016, proceeds from the Facility were used to repay the $35 million Loan which was acquired as part of the acquisition of Rio Alto on April 1, 2015.
| c) | Revolving credit facility |
On August 10, 2015, the Company signed a credit agreement with a syndicate of international banks for a revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Facility”) for an aggregate amount of $150 million. Based on certain financial ratios, the Revolving Facility bears interest on the portion drawn, on a sliding scale of LIBOR plus between 2.25% to 3.25% or a base rate plus 1.25% to 2.25% which is based on the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio.
Standby fees for the undrawn portion of the facility are also on a similar sliding scale basis of between 0.56% and 0.81% and were $210 and $410 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 (three and six months ended June 30, 2015: $nil). The term for the Revolving Facility is 3 years. Proceeds from the Facility may be used for general corporate purposes.
As at June 30, 2016, the Company had not drawn on the Facility or the Revolving Facility. The Company is currently in compliance with all covenants associated with the Revolving Facility.

As part of the acquisition of Lake Shore Gold on April 1, 2016, the Company acquired finance lease obligations related to equipment and vehicles, expiring between 2016 and 2018 with interest rates between 0.9% and 6.85% . The Company has the option to purchase the equipment and vehicles leased at the end of the terms of the leases for a nominal amount. The Company’s obligations under the finance leases are secured by the lessor’s title to the leased assets. The fair value of the finance lease liabilities approximates their carrying amount.
In addition to the finance leases acquired as part of the Lake Shore Gold acquisition, the Company also acquired a finance lease obligation in the form of a sale-leaseback transaction whereby the Company sold certain mobile equipment for CAD$7,300 and leased them back for a period of 36 months. The sale-leaseback bears interest at 3.7% and is paid through 12 quarterly instalments of principal and interest with the final payment due on October 1, 2016. The Company has the option to purchase all the equipment at a price equal to its fair value but not less than CAD$730 and not more than CAD$1,460.

The Company’s environmental permits require that it reclaim any land it disturbs during mine development, construction and operations. Although the timing and the amount of the actual expenditures are uncertain, the Company has estimated the present value of the future reclamation obligations arising from its activities to June 30, 2016 to be $60,780 (December 31, 2015: $39,524).
In determining the discount rate to be used in the calculation of the present value of the future reclamation obligations, the Company combines risk and inflation rates specific to the country in which the reclamation will take place.
The present value of the combined future obligation has increased by $14,403 during 2016 (December 31, 2015: $6,017) as a result of the impact of the change in estimates in mine life, estimated reclamation costs, discount and inflation rates and the addition of reclamation provisions related to the Timmins mines as a result of the acquisition of Lake Shore Gold.

The concentrate revenues by customer for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 are 27%, 26%, 26% and 19% and 35%, 25%, 24% and 14%, respectively (three and six months ended June 30, 2015: 49%, 32% and 17% and 42%, 29% and 17%). During the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, no other customer accounted for more than 10% of concentrate sales.
The Company has contracts with customers for its doré sales. The Company’s top two doré customers account for 100% of doré revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 (three and six months ended June 30, 2015: one customer accounted for 100% of doré revenue). For the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, doré sales comprised 98% and 97% of total gold sales.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, no other customer accounted for more than 10% of concentrate or doré sales.
The Company has determined that the loss of any single customer or curtailment of purchases by any one customer would not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition and cash flows due to the nature of the refined metals market.

The Company’s equity compensation plans are designed to attract and retain individuals and to reward them for current and expected future performance. The Company’s share-based compensation arrangements are denominated in CAD and include Tahoe Share Plan Options, the Rio Alto replacement options issued on April 1, 2015 upon completion of the acquisition of Rio Alto and the Lake Shore Gold replacement options issued on April 1, 2016 upon completion of the acquisition of Lake Shore Gold (combined the “Share Options”), as well as Deferred Share Awards (“DSAs”), Restricted Share Awards (“RSAs”) and Share Appreciation Rights (“SARs”) (collectively referred to as the “Share Plan”).
At June 30, 2016, the Company has the following share-based payment arrangements:
The Share Plan entitles key management personnel, senior employees, and consultants to the option to purchase shares in the Company. Under the terms of this program, Share Options are exercisable at the market close price of the Company’s shares on the day prior to the grant date. The Share Options vest based on vesting terms set by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. The Share Options vest in three equal tranches with the first tranche vesting on the first anniversary, the second on the second anniversary, and the third on the third anniversary of the grant date.

Of the shares exercised, 95,041 were issued in July 2016 and are therefore excluded from total shares outstanding.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company recorded $1,123 and $1,903, respectively, of compensation expense relating to Share Options in general and administrative expenses (three and six months ended June 30, 2015: $905 and $1,025, respectively).
The Share Plan permits DSAs and RSAs (collectively referred to as “Share Awards”) to be issued to key management personnel and senior employees. Upon vesting, shares in the Company are issued at no exercise price. Compensation cost for DSAs and RSAs is measured based on the closing price of the stock one day prior to the grant date.
The DSAs vest based on service-related vesting terms set by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors and can therefore vary grant to grant. In general, however, DSAs vest in three equal tranches with the first tranche vesting on the first anniversary, the second on the second anniversary, and the third on the third anniversary of the grant date (the “general DSA vesting terms”).
The number of DSAs outstanding at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 is as follows:

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, 124,000 and 169,000 DSAs vested and common shares of the Company were issued to the recipients under the provisions of the Share Plan. As a result $2,145 and $2,766, respectively, was transferred to share capital from share based payments reserve (three and six months ended June 30, 2015: 64,000 and 137,667 DSAs vested, respectively, and $1,363 and $2,938, respectively, was transferred to share capital).
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company recorded $717 and $1,421 of compensation expense relating to DSAs in general and administrative expenses (three and six months ended June 30, 2015: $715 and $1,381, respectively).
The RSAs vest immediately on the grant date and are issued at that time. Consequently, there are no RSAs outstanding at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015.
The Company granted 60,000 RSAs during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 (three and six months ended June 30, 2015: 52,500) for total compensation expense of $787 (three and six months ended June 30, 2015: $730) which was recorded in general and administrative expenses.
The Company grants SARs to employees that entitle the employees to a cash settlement. The amount of the cash settlement is determined based on the difference between the strike price and the closing share price of the Company on the exercise date. The SARs have a term of five years from the award date and vest in five equal tranches with the first tranche vesting immediately, the second on the first anniversary, the third on the second anniversary, the fourth on the third anniversary, and the fifth on the fourth anniversary of the grant date. Prior to the cash settlement, unvested and vested SARs are valued using the Black-Scholes Model.

The operating and financial results of individual operating segments are reviewed by the Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) in order to make decisions about the allocation of resources and to assess their performance. The CODM determined that for review, an operating segment must be one whose principal business activities are the operation of mineral properties for the mining of precious metals and the acquisition, exploration and development of mineral interests.
Due to the acquisition of Lake Shore Gold during the three months ended June 30, 2016 and the commencement of commercial production at Shahuindo on May 1, 2016, the CODM reassessed the operating segments as reported at December 31, 2015 and determined that the significant additions to operations during the period would be reviewed and evaluated separately and would therefore be reported as individual operating segments. At December 31, 2015, the Company’s operating segments included a silver segment (the Escobal mine) and a gold segment (the La Arena mine). At June 30, 2016, the reportable operating segments now include Escobal, La Arena, Shahuindo and the Timmins mines.
Revenues generated from the sale of silver in concentrate are from the Company’s Escobal mine in Guatemala. Revenues generated from the sale of gold in doré are generated at the La Arena and Shahuindo mines in Peru and the Timmins mines in Canada. Mineral interests, plant and equipment are situated in Guatemala, Peru and Canada.

23. | FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS |
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, trade and other receivables, VAT and other non-current receivables, other financial assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, debt and lease obligations, and are categorized as follows:
| • | Cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, trade and other receivables, VAT and other non-current receivables and other financial assets are classified as loans and receivables and are measured at amortized cost; |
| • | Trade and other receivables, which are subject to provisional pricing adjustments, and currency swaps are measured at FVTPL; and |
| • | Accounts payable and accrued liabilities, debt and lease obligations are classified as other financial liabilities. |
Fair value (“FV”) estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information and information about the financial instrument. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and, therefore, cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.
The analysis of financial instruments that are measured subsequent to initial recognition at fair value can be categorized into Levels 1 through 3 based upon the degree to which the inputs used in the fair value measurement are observable.
Level 1 – inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted (adjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
Level 2 – inputs to valuation methodology include quoted market prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.
Level 3 – inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.
At June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the levels in the FV hierarchy into which the Company’s financial assets and liabilities are measured and recognized on the statement of financial position at fair value are categorized as follows:
| | | June 30, 2016 | | | December 31, 2015 | |
| | | Level 1 | | | Level 2 | | | Level 3 | | | Level 1 | | | Level 2 | | | Level 3 | |
| Investments(1) | $ | 847 | | $ | - | | $ | - | | $ | 544 | | $ | - | | $ | - | |
| Provisionally priced trade receivables | | - | | | 25,552 | | | | | | - | | | 17,239 | | | - | |
| Currency swap(2) | | - | | | - | | | 1,675 | | | - | | | - | | | 2,742 | |
| | $ | 847 | | $ | 25,552 | | $ | 1,675 | | $ | 544 | | $ | 17,239 | | $ | 2,742 | |
| (1) | Investments are included in other current assets. |
| (2) | The currency swap is included in other non-current liabilities. |
The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, VAT and other non-current receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, debt and lease obligations approximate their fair value given the short term to maturity.
There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016. There were no financial instruments at Level 3 for any of the periods presented.
24. | FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT |
The Company has exposure to certain risks resulting from its use of financial instruments. These risks include credit risk, liquidity risk and market risk.

NOTES TO THE INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(expressed in 000’s of USD, except as otherwise stated) |
The Market risk of the Company is composed of three main risks: foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk, and price risk.
The Company is exposed to currency risk on cash and cash equivalents, VAT receivable and accounts payable that are denominated in a currency other than the USD.
There has been no significant change to the Company’s exposure to foreign exchange risk since December 31, 2015 and the Company deems this risk to be minimal.
Interest rate risk is the risk that the Company’s future cash flows and fair values will fluctuate as a result of changes in market interest rates. At June 30, 2016, the Company’s interest-bearing financial instruments are related to cash and cash equivalents, the Facility and finance leases. There has been no significant change to the Company’s exposure to interest rate risk since December 31, 2015 and the Company deems this risk to be minimal.
Price risk is the risk that the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments will fluctuate due to changes in market prices. There has been no significant change to the Company’s exposure to price risk since December 31, 2015 and the Company deems this risk to be at an acceptable level and has entered into no hedging contracts.
The Company’s policy is to maintain a strong capital base so as to maintain investor, creditor and market confidence and to support future development of the business. The Company seeks to maintain a balance between the higher returns that might be possible with higher levels of borrowing and the advantages and security afforded by a sound capital position.
The capital structure of the Company consists of common equity, comprising share capital and reserves net of accumulated deficit, and debt, which includes the Facility and finance leases.
