2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Statement of compliance
These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"), as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB") including International Accounting Standards ("IAS") 34 Interim financial reporting. These condensed interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018, which have been prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB. The accounting policies and methods of application adopted are consistent with those disclosed in Note 3 of the Company's consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018, except for the changes in accounting policies described below.
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements were approved by the Audit Committee of the Company on July 30, 2019.
Basis of presentation
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries, whether owned directly or indirectly. The financial statements of the subsidiaries are prepared for the same period as the Company using consistent accounting policies for all periods presented, except for the changes in accounting policies described in Note 3 below. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated. Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Company. Non-controlling interests in the net assets of consolidated subsidiaries are a separate component of the Company's equity.
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and discharge of all liabilities in the normal course of business.
The condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for derivative financial instruments which are measured at fair value through profit or loss.
3. CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A) New Accounting Standards Effective 2019
The Company has adopted the following new and revised standards, effective January 1, 2019. These changes were made in accordance with the applicable transitional provisions.
IFRS 16 Leases specifies how an IFRS reporter will recognize, measure, present and disclose leases. The standard provides a single lessee accounting model, requiring lessees to recognize assets and liabilities for all leases unless the lease term is 12 months or less or the underlying asset has a low value. Lessors continue to classify leases as operating or finance, with IFRS 16's approach to lessor accounting substantially unchanged from its predecessor, IAS 17. IFRS 16 was issued in January 2016 and applies to annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019.
7
On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted the requirements of IFRS 16 Leases. As a result, the Company updated its accounting policy for leases to align with the requirements of IFRS 16. The Company elected to use the modified retrospective approach to initially adopt IFRS 16 which resulted in recognizing the cumulative effect of prior period amounts as an adjustment to the opening balance sheet through opening deficit on January 1, 2019.
Under IFRS 16, the Company recognized lease liabilities in relation to leases which had previously been classified as ‘operating leases’ under the principles of IAS 17 Leases. These liabilities were measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted using the lessee’s incremental borrowing rate as of January 1, 2019. The weighted average lessee’s incremental borrowing rate applied to the lease liabilities on January 1, 2019 was 7.5%.
The associated right-of-use assets for property leases were measured on a retrospective basis as if the new rules had always been applied. The change in accounting policy affected the following items in the balance sheet on January 1, 2019:
• | Mining interests (plant and equipment) - increase of $0.7 million |
• | Long term debt (finance leases) - increase of $0.5 million |
The net impact on retained earnings on January 1, 2019 was a decrease of $0.1 million
IFRIC 23 Uncertainty over income tax treatments clarifies how the recognition and measurement requirements of IAS 12, Income Taxes, are applied where there is uncertainty over income tax treatments effective for years beginning on or after January 1, 2019. There was no accounting impact to the financial statements on adoption of this standard.
4. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The following tables illustrate the classification of the Company's recurring fair value measurements for financial instruments within the fair value hierarchy and their carrying values and fair values as at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018:
June 30, 2019 | December 31, 2018 | ||||||||||||
Level | Carrying value | Fair value | Carrying value | Fair value | |||||||||
Financial Liabilities | |||||||||||||
Fair value through profit or loss | |||||||||||||
7% Convertible Debentures embedded derivative | 3 | 7,626 | 7,626 | 4,177 | 4,177 |
There were no non-recurring fair value measurements of financial instruments as at June 30, 2019.
The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are:
Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly; and
Level 3 - Inputs that are not based on observable market data.
The Company's policy is to recognize transfers into and transfers out of the fair value hierarchy levels as of the date of the event or change in circumstances that caused the transfer. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, there were no transfers between the levels of the fair value hierarchy.
(Gain)/loss on fair value of financial instruments in the Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss consists of the following:
Three Months Ended June 30, | Six Months Ended June 30, | ||||||||||||||
2019 | 2018 | 2019 | 2018 | ||||||||||||
(Gain)/loss on fair value of 7% Convertible Debentures embedded derivative | (424 | ) | 1,301 | 3,449 | (4,141 | ) | |||||||||
$ | (424 | ) | $ | 1,301 | $ | 3,449 | $ | (4,141 | ) |
8
The valuation technique that is used to measure fair value is as follows:
7% Convertible Debentures embedded derivative
The debt component of the 7% Convertible Debentures is recorded at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method, and the conversion feature is classified as an embedded derivative measured at fair value through profit or loss.
The embedded derivative was valued at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 using a convertible note valuation model. The significant inputs used in the convertible note valuation are as follows:
June 30, 2019 | December 31, 2018 | ||||
Embedded derivative | |||||
Risk premium | 5.9 | % | 5.0 | % | |
Borrowing costs | 7.5 | % | 10.0 | % | |
Expected volatility | 45.0 | % | 45.0 | % | |
Remaining life (years) | 2.1 | 2.6 |
The following table presents the changes in the 7% Convertible Debentures embedded derivative for the six months ended June 30, 2019:
Fair value | |||
Balance at December 31, 2018 | $ | 4,177 | |
Loss on fair value of 7% Convertible Debentures embedded derivative | 3,449 | ||
Balance at June 30, 2019 | $ | 7,626 |
If the risk premium increases by 10%, the fair value of the 7% Convertible Debentures embedded derivative would decrease and the related loss in the Statement of Operations would decrease by $0.1 million at June 30, 2019.
If the borrowing costs increases by 10%, the fair value of the 7% Convertible Debentures embedded derivative would decrease and the related loss in the Statement of Operations would decrease by $0.2 million at June 30, 2019.
If the expected volatility increases by 10%, the fair value of the 7% Convertible Debentures embedded derivative would increase and the related loss in the Statement of Operations would increase by $1.0 million at June 30, 2019.
5. INVENTORIES
Inventories include the following components:
As of | As of | ||||||

Materials and supplies | 26,073 | 23,659 | |||||
Finished goods | 351 | 736 | |||||
Total | $ | 36,940 | $ | 35,196 |
The cost of inventories expensed for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 was $83.7 million and $109.5 million, respectively.
Net realizable value adjustments of $0.1 million and $1.1 million were recorded for stockpiled ore in the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively (three and six months ended June 30, 2018 - $0.7 million and $1.9 million, respectively).

Information about major customers
Currently, approximately 90% of our gold production is sold through a South African gold refinery. Except for the sales to RGLD as part of the Streaming Agreement, the refinery arranges for the sale of gold on the day it is shipped from the mine sites and we receive payment for gold sold two working days after the gold leaves the mine site. The global gold market is competitive with numerous banks and refineries willing to buy gold on short notice. Therefore, we believe that the loss of our current customer would not materially delay or disrupt revenue.
