THIRD QUARTER 2022 HIGHLIGHTS

Highlights for the three months ended September 30, 2022 are summarized below and discussed further in our Management’s Discussion and Analysis:

Financial

Our balance sheet remains strong, with $22.5 million in cash as of September 30, 2022. The decrease of $11.2 million since December 31, 2021, is after:
oyear-to-date cash inflow of $7.9 million from operating activities, net of $16.2 million in income tax payments for tax years 2021 and 2022 and $6.9 million investment in the Back Forty Project feasibility study and permitting work;
oinvesting Canadian dollar (“C$”) 2.4 million (or U.S. dollar $1.7 million) in Maritime Resources Corp., ticker symbol “MAE.V” on the Toronto Stock Exchange—Venture Exchange (“TSX-V”), in exchange for 9.9% of the company’s shares in a private placement;
oinvesting $14.1 million in capital expenditures; and
odistributing to shareholders $2.7 million in dividends ($0.9 million this quarter, totaling over $122 million since 2010).
Net loss was $9.7 million or $0.11 loss per share for the quarter. The third quarter net loss is mainly driven by:
olower commodity prices in the third quarter relative to the prior quarter and the same period in 2021;
ohigher depreciation and amortization due to capital additions and a year-over-year lower Mineral Reserve base; and
ohigher exploration expense due to the investment in the Back Forty Project feasibility study and permitting.
Working capital was $28.9 million as of September 30, 2022, $0.4 million lower than as of December 31, 2021. The decrease is primarily due to a decrease in cash as discussed above.
Total cash cost for the quarter was $1,103 per gold equivalent (“AuEq”) ounce (after co-product credits) and total all-in sustaining cost for the quarter was $1,831 per AuEq ounce (after co-product credits). Both non-GAAP measures were higher in the quarter due to the impact of lower co-product credits as a result of lower base metal prices (see Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Non-GAAP Measures below for a reconciliation of non-GAAP measures to applicable GAAP measures).

Don David Gold Mine

The Don David Gold Mine (“DDGM”) safety program aims to bolster the overall health and safety culture of our employees.
oThere were no lost time incidents during the third quarter of 2022.
oThe year-to-date lost time injury frequency rate per million hours of 2.76 is substantially below the Camimex (Mexican Chamber of Mines) benchmark of 5.71.
oDuring the third quarter of 2022, production, mine development, and exploration were deliberately but temporarily slowed to improve safety specific to ground support and ventilation.
In the third quarter of 2022, the Don David Gold Mine produced and sold a total of 8,042 gold equivalent ounces, comprising 5,478 gold ounces and 225,012 silver ounces at an average sales price per ounce of $1,627 and $19, respectively.
While exploration was temporarily slowed to address safety improvement opportunities, work continued to focus on infill drilling with encouraging results from the Arista and Switchback vein systems. The step-out resource expansion drilling is ongoing, and surface sampling programs at the Alta Gracia project continue.

Back Forty Project

The feasibility study work for the Back Forty Project in Michigan, USA progressed during the third quarter of 2022. Work related to metallurgy and the economic model is expected to continue into 2023. Permit applications will not be submitted with state agencies in Michigan until the completion of the feasibility study.
On August 5, 2022, the Company was invited by Michigan’s Department of Environment, Great Lakes and Energy (“EGLE”) to participate in a voluntary Scoping Environmental Impact Assessment (“SEIA”) meeting to present to local community leaders the initial site plan and other key improvements being incorporated into the Back Forty Project’s optimized feasibility study.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

September 30, 2022
(Unaudited)

1. Basis of Preparation of Financial Statements

The Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements (“interim financial statements”) of Gold Resource Corporation and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim statements. Certain information and footnote disclosures required by United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted as permitted by such rules, although the Company believes that the disclosures included are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (including normal recurring adjustments) and disclosures necessary for a fair presentation of these interim financial statements have been included. The results reported in these interim financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be reported for the entire year. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021 included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K. The year-end balance sheet data was derived from the audited financial statements. Unless otherwise noted, there have been no material changes to the footnotes from those accompanying the audited consolidated financial statements contained in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K.

Certain items in the prior period’s consolidated financial statements and notes have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations.

2. Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

Recent accounting pronouncements issued have been evaluated and do not presently impact our financial statements and supplemental data.

accounting rules, the interim provision for taxes is calculated using the estimated consolidated annual effective tax rate. The consolidated effective tax rate is a function of the combined effective tax rates for the jurisdictions in which the Company operates. Variations in the relative proportions of jurisdictional income could result in fluctuations to the Company’s consolidated effective tax rate. At the federal level, the Company’s income in the U.S. is taxed at 21%, and a 5% withholding tax applies to dividends received from Mexico. The Mexico income is taxed at 37.5% (30% income tax and 7.5% mining tax), and Canada income is taxed at 26.5%, which results in a consolidated effective tax rate above statutory U.S. Federal rates. The U.S. and Canadian jurisdictions do not currently generate taxable income.

Mexico Mining Taxation

Mining entities in Mexico are subject to two mining duties in addition to the 30% Mexico corporate income tax. The first is a “special” mining duty of 7.5% of taxable income as defined under Mexican tax law (also referred to as “mining royalty tax”) on extraction activities performed by concession holders. The mining royalty tax is generally applicable to earnings before income tax, depreciation, depletion, amortization, and interest, and it is considered an income tax for purposes of financial reporting. The second is a 0.5% mining duty over sales of gold and silver, but this duty is not considered an income tax for financial reporting purposes and reported as production cost. Both duties are tax deductible for Mexico income tax purposes.

On January 1, 2022, the 2022 Tax Reform became effective in Mexico, which included several amendments to the Income Tax Law relevant to tax deductions. For 2022, a depreciation rate of 5% per year was established for construction of facilities, additions, repairs, improvements, adaptations, as well as any other construction performed in a mining lot, in accordance with Article 12 of the Mexican Mining Law.

The Company periodically transfers funds from its Mexican wholly-owned subsidiary to the U.S. in the form of dividends, which are subject to a 10% Mexico withholding tax, unless otherwise provided per a tax treaty. The current U.S.-Mexico tax treaty limits the dividend withholding tax between these countries to 5%, as long as certain requirements are met. Based on the Company’s understanding that it meets these requirements, the Company pays a 5% withholding tax on dividends paid from Mexico. The impact of the planned annual dividends for 2022 is reflected in the estimated annual effective tax rate. As of September 30, 2022, the Company recorded $0.8 million deferred tax liability related to the 5% withholding tax on funds available for transfer to the U.S. as dividends in the future and no longer deemed to be permanently reinvested in Mexico. If these funds are distributed to the U.S. from Mexico in the future, at that time they will be subject to the 5% dividend withholding tax payment upon distribution.

As of September 30, 2022, the Company believes that it has no liability for uncertain tax positions.

6. Promissory Note

A promissory note was acquired in the Aquila Resources, Inc. (“Aquila”) acquisition. In October 2021, Aquila sold its Wisconsin assets to Green Light Metals in return for a C$4.9 million ($3.9 million) promissory note. In June, an amended agreement was executed. Under the amended promissory note, Green Light Metals is to deliver C$4.9 million in Green Light Metal common shares once Green Light Metals goes public, or private shares of Green Light Metals at the maturity date of December 31, 2022, whichever occurs first. The shares are expected to represent approximately 20% to 28% of the total outstanding shares of Green Light Metals. Due to the short maturity of the promissory note, the carrying amount approximates the fair value, and likewise, no interest and collateral is required. Until maturity, the Company will record unrealized foreign currency gain or loss on the promissory note.

In Mexico value added (“IVA”) tax is assessed on the sales of products and purchases of materials and services. Businesses owe IVA taxes as the business sells a product and collects IVA taxes from its customers. Likewise, businesses are generally entitled to recover the taxes they have paid related to purchases of materials and services, either as a refund or credit to IVA tax payable. Amounts recorded as IVA taxes in the consolidated financial statements represent the net estimated IVA tax payable or receivable, since there is a legal right of offset of IVA taxes. As of September 30, 2022, this resulted in a small asset balance ($0.6 million), which is included in Other current assets above.

Periodic interest expense will be incurred based on an implied interest rate. The implied interest rate is determined based on the timing and probability of future production and an 8% discount rate. Interest expense is recorded to the Consolidated Statements of Operations and the gold and silver stream agreement liability on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Gold Streaming Agreement

In November 2017, Aquila entered into a stream agreement with Osisko Bermuda Limited (“OBL”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Osisko Gold Royalties Ltd (TSX & NYSE: OR), pursuant to which OBL agreed to commit approximately $55 million to Aquila through a gold stream purchase agreement. In June 2020, Aquila amended its agreement with Osisko, reducing the total committed amount to $50 million, as well as adjusting certain milestone dates under the gold stream to align with the current project development timeline. Aquila had received a total of $20 million of the committed funds at the time of the Gold Resource Corporation acquisition. Remaining deposits from OBL are $5 million upon receipt of permits required for the development and operation of the Back Forty Project and $25 million upon the first drawdown of an appropriate project debt finance facility. OBL has been provided a general security agreement over the Back Forty Project which consists of the subsidiaries of Gold Resource Acquisition Sub, Inc., a 100% owned subsidiary of Gold Resource Corporation. The initial term of the agreement is for 40 years, automatically renewable for successive ten-year periods. The agreement is subject to certain operating and financial covenants, which are in good standing as of September 30, 2022.

Gold Resource Corporation—Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements and Notes—Unaudited
12

Table of Contents

The $20 million received from OBL through September 30, 2022 is shown as a long-term liability on the Consolidated Balance Sheet along with implied interest. The implied interest rate is applied on OBL advance payments and calculated on the total expected life-of-mine production to be deliverable (as supported in the Back Forty Project Preliminary Economic Assessment) at the five-year average street consensus metal prices (based on the median) evaluated as of December 31, 2021 and is discounted at 8.0%. As the remaining $30 million deposit is subject to the completion of certain milestones and the satisfaction of certain other conditions, this amount is not reflected on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Per the terms of the gold stream agreement, OBL will purchase 18.5% of the refined gold from Back Forty (the “Threshold Stream Percentage”) until the Company has delivered 105,000 ounces of gold (the “Production Threshold”). Upon satisfaction of the Production Threshold, the Threshold Stream Percentage will be reduced to 9.25% of the refined gold (the “Tail Stream”). In exchange for the refined gold delivered under the Stream Agreement, OBL will pay the Company ongoing payments equal to 30% of the spot price of gold on the day of delivery, subject to a maximum payment of $600 per ounce. Where the market price of gold is greater than the price paid, the difference realized from the sale of the gold will be applied against the deposit received from Osisko.

Silver Stream Agreement

Through a series of contracts, Aquila executed a silver stream agreement with OBL to purchase silver produced at the Back Forty Project. A total of $17.2 million has been advanced under the agreement as of September 30, 2022. There are no future deposits remaining under the agreement. The initial term of the agreement is for 40 years, automatically renewable for successive ten-year periods. The agreement is subject to certain operating and financial covenants, which are in good standing as of September 30, 2022.

Per the terms of the silver stream agreement, OBL will purchase 85% of the silver produced from the Back Forty Project at a fixed price of $4 per ounce of silver. Where the market price of silver is greater than $4 per ounce, the difference realized from the sale of the silver will be applied against the deposit received from Osisko.

The $17.2 million received from OBL through September 30, 2022 is shown as a long-term liability on the Consolidated Balance Sheet along with an implied interest.

The Company’s undiscounted reclamation liabilities of $1.9 million and $1.8 million as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, are related to the Don David Gold Mine in Mexico. These represent reclamation liabilities that were expensed through 2013 before proven and probable reserves were established and the Company was considered to be a development stage entity; therefore, most of the costs, including asset retirement costs, were not allowed to be capitalized as part of our Property, Plant & Mine Development.

The Company’s asset retirement obligations reflect the additions to the asset for reclamation and remediation costs in Property, Plant & Mine Development, post 2013 development stage status, which are discounted using a credit adjusted

risk-free rate of 8%. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company’s asset retirement obligation related to the Don David Gold Mine in Mexico was $1.4 million and $1.3 million, respectively.

12. Commitments and Contingencies

Commitments

As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company has equipment purchase commitments of approximately $1.2 million and $0.4 million, respectively.

Contingent Consideration

With the Aquila acquisition, the Company assumed a contingent consideration related to the December 30, 2013, Aquila acquisition of 100% of the shares of HudBay Michigan Inc. (“HMI”), a subsidiary of HudBay Minerals Inc. (“HudBay”), effectively giving Aquila 100% ownership in the Back Forty Project (the “HMI Acquisition”). Pursuant to the HMI Acquisition, HudBay’s 51% interest in the Back Forty Project was acquired in consideration for the issuance of common shares of Aquila, future milestone payments tied to the development of the Back Forty Project, and a 1% net smelter return royalty on production from certain land parcels in the project. The issuance of shares and 1% net smelter obligations were settled before the Company acquired Aquila.

The contingent consideration is composed of the following in Canadian dollars:

The value of future installments is based on C$9 million tied to development of the Back Forty project as follows:

a.C$3 million payable on completion of any form of financing for purposes including the commencement of construction of Back Forty. Up to 50% of the C$3 million can be paid, at the Company’s option, in Gold Resource Corporation shares with the balance payable in cash (if as of November 2023 this milestone has not been achieved or payment made, HMI has the right to repurchase a 51% ownership in the Back Forty Project);
b.C$2 million payable in cash 90 days after the commencement of commercial production;
c.C$2 million payable in cash 270 days after the commencement of commercial production; and
d.C$2 million payable in cash 450 days after the commencement of commercial production.

The value of the contingent consideration as of September 30, 2022 was $4.0 million. The contingent consideration will be adjusted for the foreign currency translation, time value of money, and the likelihood of the milestone payments. Any future changes in the value of the contingent consideration will be recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Other Contingencies

The Company has certain other contingencies resulting from litigation, claims, and other commitments that are subject to a variety of environmental and safety laws and regulations incidents related to the ordinary course of business. The Company currently has no basis to conclude that any or all such contingencies will materially affect its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. However, in the future, there may be changes to these contingencies, or additional contingencies may occur, any of which might result in an accrual or a change in current accruals recorded by the Company, and there can be no assurance that their ultimate disposition will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

With the successful acquisition of Aquila Resources Inc. on December 10, 2021, the Company assumed substantial liabilities that relate to the gold and silver stream agreements with Osisko Bermuda Limited (see Note 10 - Gold and Silver Stream Agreements). Under the agreements, Osisko deposited a total of $37.2 million upfront in exchange for a portion of the future gold and silver production from the Back Forty Project. The stream agreements contain customary provisions regarding default and security. In the event that our subsidiary defaults under the stream agreements, including by failing to achieve commercial production by an agreed upon date, it may be required to repay the deposit plus accumulated interest

at a rate agreed with Osisko. If it fails to do so, Osisko may be entitled to enforce their remedies as a secured party and take possession of the assets that comprise the Back Forty Project.

13. Shareholders’ Equity

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company declared and paid dividends of $0.01 per common share and $0.03 per common share for an aggregate total of $0.9 million and $2.7 million, respectively. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company declared dividends of $0.01 per common share and $0.03 per common share, respectively, and paid an aggregate total of $0.7 million and $2.5 million, respectively. As of September 30, 2022, there are 88,398,109 issued and outstanding shares of common stock.

14. Derivatives

Embedded Derivatives

Concentrate sales contracts contain embedded derivatives due to the provisional pricing terms for unsettled shipments. At the end of each reporting period, the Company records an adjustment to accounts receivable and revenue to reflect the mark-to-market adjustments for outstanding provisional invoices based on forward metal prices. Please see Note—20 Fair Value Measurement for additional information on the realized and unrealized gain (loss) recorded to adjust accounts receivable and revenue.

Other Derivatives

Derivative instruments that are not designated as hedging instruments are required to be recorded on the balance sheet at fair value. Changes in fair value will impact the Company’s earnings through mark-to-market adjustments until the physical commodity is delivered or the financial instrument is settled. The fair value does not reflect the realized or cash value of the instrument.

As of September 30, 2022, the Company’s derivatives not designated as hedges consist of zinc zero cost collars used to manage its near-term exposure to cash flow variability from zinc price risks. A zero cost collar is a combination of two options: a sold call option and a purchased put option. The Company sold call options to establish the ceiling price of $3,500 per tonne of zinc that the Company will receive for the contracted zinc volume of 1,950 tonnes for October through December 2022. The purchased put establishes the floor price of $3,200 per tonne of zinc that the Company will receive for the same contracted tonnes and period of time.

Derivatives are carried at fair value and on a net basis when a legal right of offset exists with the same counterparty. Otherwise, any fair value gains or losses are recognized in earnings in the current period. The London Metal Exchange (“LME”) average zinc price of $3,660 per tonne during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 exceeded the call option ceiling of $3,313 per tonne, resulting in a realized loss of $2.4 million. The zinc price forward curve as of September 30, 2022 is below the put option ceiling, resulting in a $0.4 million asset on the remaining 1,950 tonnes. The asset recognized resulted in an unrealized gain of $2.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

The Company manages credit risk by selecting counterparties believed to be financially strong, by entering into netting arrangements with counterparties and by requiring other credit risk mitigants, as appropriate. The Company actively

Gold Resource Corporation—Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements and Notes—Unaudited

Table of Contents

evaluates the creditworthiness of its counterparties, assigns appropriate credit limits, and monitors credit exposures against those assigned limits.

15. Employee Benefits

Effective October 2012, the Company adopted a profit sharing plan (the “Plan”) which covers all U.S. employees. The Plan meets the requirements of a qualified retirement plan pursuant to the provisions of Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. The Plan also provides eligible employees the opportunity to make tax deferred contributions to a retirement trust account up to 50% of their qualified wages, subject to the IRS annual maximums.

Under Mexican law, employees are entitled to receive statutory profit sharing (Participacion a los Trabajadores de las Utilidades or “PTU”) payment. The required cash payment to employees in the aggregate is equal to 10% of their employer’s profit subject to PTU, which differs from profit determined under U.S. GAAP. Please see Note 9Accrued Expenses and Other Liabilities for additional information.

16. Stock-Based Compensation

The Company’s compensation program comprises three main elements: base salary, an annual short-term incentive plan (“STIP”) cash award, and long-term equity-based incentive compensation (“LTIP”) in the form of performance share units (“PSUs”), restricted stock units (“RSUs”), stock options, and deferred stock units (“DSUs”).

The Gold Resource Corporation 2016 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Incentive Plan”) allows for the issuance of up to 5 million shares of common stock in the form of incentive and non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, RSUs, stock grants, stock units, performance shares, performance share units, and performance cash. Additionally, pursuant to the terms of the Incentive Plan, any award outstanding under the prior plan that is terminated, expired, forfeited, or canceled for any reason, will be available for grant under the Incentive Plan.

Effective January 1, 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors, on the recommendation of the Compensation Committee, implemented a program to issue DSUs. DSUs are qualifying instruments under the terms of the Company’s Incentive Plan and therefore do not require additional shareholder approval. The vesting and settlement terms of the DSUs are determined by the Compensation Committee at the time the DSUs are awarded.

DSUs of nil and 214,357 were granted to the Board of Directors during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively. DSUs of nil and 130,000 were granted to the Board of Directors during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively. DSUs are redeemable in cash or shares at the earlier of 10 years or upon the eligible directors’ termination. Termination is deemed to occur on the earliest of (1) the date of voluntary resignation or retirement of the director from the Board; (2) the date of death of the director; or (3) the date of removal of the director from the Board whether by shareholder resolution, failure to achieve re-election, or otherwise; and on which date the director is not a director or employee of the Company or any of its affiliates. These awards contain a cash settlement feature and are therefore classified as a liability and are marked to fair value each reporting period. The Company may also issue DSUs for directors in lieu of board fees at their request. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, there were 3,746 and 10,454 DSUs granted in lieu of board fees that are also subject to mark-to-market adjustment. Both during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, there were 1,960 DSUs granted in lieu of board fees that are also subject to mark-to-market adjustment. As of September 30, 2022 and 2021, the liability balance related to DSUs was $0.6 million and $0.2 million, respectively.

RSUs of nil and 611,681 were granted during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively. No RSUs were granted during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, a total of 41,666 and 119,467 RSUs vested, respectively, from which 41,666 and 80,169 RSUs were redeemed, respectively, issuing 41,666 and 75,584 common shares with an intrinsic value and a fair value of $74,165 and $138,101, respectively. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, a total of 50,183 and 52,797 RSUs vested and redeemed, and 49,755 and 52,369 common shares were issued with an intrinsic value and a fair value of $0.1 million and $0.1 million, respectively.

On May 18, 2021, the Company entered into a Trading Agreement with Auramet International LLC that governs nonexchange traded, over-the-counter, spot, forward and option transactions on both a deliverable and non-deliverable basis involving various metals and currencies. Gains and losses due to changes in fair value are non-cash in nature until such time that they are realized through cash transactions. Please see Note 14—Derivatives for additional information. As of September 30, 2022, the zinc zero cost collar was in an asset position ($0.4 million), while in prior periods we had a liability related to the program.

19. Net Income per Common Share

Basic net income per common share is calculated based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per common share are calculated based on the assumption that stock options and other dilutive securities outstanding, which have an exercise price less than the average market price of the Company’s common shares during the period, would have been exercised on the later of the beginning of the period or the date granted and that the funds obtained from the exercise were used to purchase common shares at the average market price during the period. All the Company’s RSUs and DSUs are considered to be dilutive in periods with net income.

The effect of the Company’s dilutive securities is calculated using the treasury stock method and only those instruments that result in a reduction in net income per common share are included in the calculation. Options to purchase 2.1 million shares of common stock at weighted average exercise prices of $3.52 and 2.1 million shares of common stock at weighted average exercise prices of and $5.11 were outstanding as of September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, but were not included in the computation of diluted weighted average common shares outstanding, as the exercise price of the options exceeded the average price of the Company’s common stock during the reporting period, and therefore are anti-dilutive.

Basic and diluted net income per common share is calculated as follows:

20. Fair Value Measurement

Fair value accounting establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

Level 1

Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;

Level 2

Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and

Level 3

Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (supported by little or no market activity).

As required by accounting guidance, assets are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The following table sets forth certain of the Company’s assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis by level within the fair value hierarchy as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instrument:

Cash and cash equivalents: Cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of cash deposits and are valued at cost, which approximates fair value.

Accounts receivable, net: Accounts receivable, net includes amounts due to the Company for deliveries of concentrates and doré sold to customers, net of embedded derivatives mark-to-market value of $1.7 million as of September 30, 2022, and nil as of December 31, 2021. Concentrate sales contracts provide for provisional pricing as specified in such contracts. These sales contain an embedded derivative related to the provisional pricing mechanism and are accounted for as a derivative. At the end of each reporting period, the Company records an adjustment to sales to reflect the mark-to-market of outstanding provisional invoices based on the forward price curve. Because these provisionally priced sales have not yet settled as of the reporting date, the mark-to-market adjustment related to these invoices is included in accounts receivable as of each reporting date and included in its accounts receivable on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Interim Balance Sheets related to mark-to-market adjustments. Please see Note 14—Derivatives for additional information.

Investment in equity securities: On September 22, 2022, Gold Resource Corporation invested C$2.4 million (or $1.7 million) in the common shares of Maritime Resources Corp. (“Maritime”), ticker symbol MAE.V on TSX-V, in a private placement. The 47 million shares purchased represent less than 10% of the issued and outstanding shares of Maritime. As of September 30, 2022, the share price of Maritime was the same as at the time of purchase; and therefore, no unrealized gain or loss was recorded.

Derivative liability - zinc zero cost collar: Derivatives are carried at fair value and on a net basis as a legal right of offset exists with the same counterparty. The valuation is using the Black Scholes model as applied to zinc call options and considers interest rate forecast, market volatility, and the zinc forward price curve for each respective hedge period. Any fair value gains or losses are recognized in earnings in the current period. The fair value does not reflect the realized or cash value of the instrument. Mark-to-market adjustments are made until the physical commodity is delivered or the financial instrument is settled. At each reporting period Management evaluates the unrealized gain (loss) on the derivatives instruments based on average London Metal Exchange forward underlying price over a period from the trade date to the payment date.

For the zinc zero cost collar, when the prior month LME average zinc price is greater than the call price, positions settling in the period are recorded as a realized gain or loss, and unsettled positions are recorded as an unrealized gain or loss.

Contingent consideration: For September 30, 2022, a time value of money calculation was utilized to value the contingent consideration. Each milestone payment was assessed separately. Key risks including permitting, feasibility study, commercial production, and timing were each assigned a probability weighting based on the likelihood of occurrence, and a 60.75% overall probability was used. The change in the fair value since December 31, 2021 is contributable to unrealized foreign currency exchange adjustment. Please see Note 12— Commitments and Contingencies for additional information.

Gold and silver stream agreements: The gold and silver stream liabilities are carried at fair value. The discounted cash flow model that was used to determine the fair value utilizes significant unobservable inputs, such as the probability and timing of permitting, feasibility study, and commercial production. Also, a periodic interest expense is recorded based on an implied interest rate. The implied interest rate is determined based on a 67.5% probability of future production and an 8% discount rate. The change in the fair value since December 31, 2021 is contributable to the implied interest. Please see Note 10—Gold and Silver Stream Agreements for additional information.

Gains and losses related to changes in the fair value of these financial instruments were included in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Interim Statements of Operations as shown in the following table:

ITEM 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion summarizes the results of operations of Gold Resource Corporation and its subsidiaries (“we”, “our”, or “us”) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and compares those results with the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021. It also analyzes the Company’s financial condition as of September 30, 2022 and compares it to the financial condition as of December 31, 2021. This discussion should be read in conjunction with management’s discussion and analysis and the audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes for the year ended December 31, 2021 contained in our annual report on Form 10-K.

The discussion also presents certain non-GAAP financial measures that are important to management in its evaluation of our operating results, and which are used by management to compare our performance with what we perceive to be peer group mining companies and are relied on as part of management’s decision-making process. Management believes these measures may also be important to investors in evaluating our performance. For a detailed description of each of the non-GAAP financial measures and a reconciliation to GAAP financial measures, please see the discussion under “Non-GAAP Measures”.

See Forward-Looking Statements at the end of this Item 2 for important information regarding statements contained herein.

Overview

Gold Resource Corporation is a mining company that pursues gold and silver projects that are expected to achieve both low operating costs and high returns on capital. The Don David Gold Mine currently has six projects with the primary mineral production coming from the Arista underground mine. This mine supplies ore to our processing facilities to produce gold and silver doré and copper, lead, and zinc concentrates which also contain gold and silver.

The Back Forty Project, when developed, is expected to produce gold and silver doré and copper and zinc concentrates bearing gold and silver. The feasibility study work progressed during the third quarter of 2022. Work related to metallurgy and the economic model is expected to continue into 2023. Permit applications will not be submitted with state agencies in Michigan until the completion of the feasibility study. The Company has formed an integrated project team to optimize the feasibility study, related mine plan, and to ensure a positive long-term impact on the environment and host communities.

Field safety inspection underground

Focusing on a zero-harm workplace for our employees, the environment, and our local communities has resulted in a deliberate but temporary slowdown of the Company’s underground development, exploration drilling, and production rate of tonnes processed by the mill.

Safety audits and minor ground failures identified additional training, and a renewed focus on safety was required related to ground support and ventilation. Additionally, the safety audits identified that the ground water conditions were starting to corrode some of the ground support, so an effort was initiated to replace the bolts to further improve the safety of the mine.

This deliberate and disciplined approach to safety has also helped to identify opportunities to deploy new ground support and mining methods. The slowdown of mine development and exploration is expected to initially impact the timing of the Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves update which is now expected in the first half of 2023.

The team at Gold Resource Corporation holds itself accountable to the highest environmental, social, and governance standards. Our commitment to acting responsibly and delivering excellence in sustainability allows us to deliver benefits to all our stakeholders, including our employees and local communities.

COVID-19 Pandemic

The Company continues to protect the health and safety of our employees, contractors, and communities by taking precautionary measures, including specialized training, social distancing, and close monitoring of national and regional COVID-19 impacts and governmental guidelines. Since our non-mining workforce is able to work remotely with the benefit of technology, we are able to maintain our operations and internal controls over financial reporting and disclosures.

As of the date of the issuance of these unaudited Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements, there have been no other significant impacts, including impairments, to the Company’s operations and financial statements. However, the long-term impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on the Company’s results of operations, financial position, and cash flows will depend on future developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak and related advisories and restrictions. These developments and the impact of COVID-19 on the financial markets and the overall economy are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted. If the financial markets and/or the overall economy are impacted for an extended period, the Company’s results of operations, financial position, and cash flows may be materially adversely affected. The Company is not able to estimate the duration of the pandemic and potential impact on its business if disruptions or delays in business developments and shipments of product occur. In addition, a severe prolonged economic downturn could result in a variety of risks to the business, including a decreased ability to raise additional capital when and if needed on acceptable terms, if at all. As the situation continues to evolve, the Company will continue to monitor market conditions closely and respond accordingly. The Company has completed various scenario planning analyses to consider potential impacts of COVID-19 on its business, including volatility in commodity prices, temporary disruptions and/or curtailments of operating activities

(1)Combined tonnes milled in the first, second, and third quarter of 2021 included 11,577 tonnes, 3,227 tonnes, and 204 tonnes from the Open Pit Mine, respectively. The Open Pit Mine is no longer in production. Additionally, Q1 and Q2 2022 combined tonnes milled includes 1,043 and 215 purchased tonnes, respectively, related to an environmental initiative with a local community. There were no purchased tonnes processed in the third quarter of 2022.
(2)Based on actual days the mill operated during the period.
(3)The difference between what we report as “Metal production” and “Metal produced and sold” is attributable to the difference between the quantities of metals contained in the concentrates we produce versus the portion of those metals for which we are paid, net of metal deductions, according to the terms of our sales contracts. The terms of our smelting and trading sales contracts reflect customary commercial terms in the mining industry, with withheld metals ranging from less than 1% up to 30% depending on the product sold (doré, copper concentrate, lead concentrate, or zinc concentrate) and the volume of metals contained within that product. The “Percentage payable metals” is the ratio of Metals production divided by metal produced and sold. Differences can also arise from inventory changes related to shipping schedules, or variances in ore grades and recoveries, which impact the amount of metals contained in concentrates produced and sold.

Third quarter 2022 compared to third quarter 2021

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, the Don David Gold Mine production totaled 5,851 gold ounces and 261,256 silver ounces, representing a 16% decrease in gold production and a 2% decrease in silver production, from the same period in 2021. The change is a direct result of the lower gold and silver grades processed.

Production Volumes

During the three months ended September 30, 2022, total tonnes milled of 110,682 were 13% higher than in the three months ended September 30, 2021. Metal production for gold, silver, lead, and zinc decreased during the three months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the same period last year. While metal production generally increased year over year, production in the three months ended September 30, 2022, was lower than metal production in the same period in 2021 due to the Company’s deliberate but temporary slowdown of production to improve safety specific to ground support and ventilation, as well as a more prolonged rainy season in 2022 compared to the same period in 2021.

The paste fill plant continues to provide substantial efficiencies since it commenced operations in 2019 by returning processing waste to underground workings. The paste fill is an effective method of reducing surface tailings and provides structural ground support that allows for more complete mining of mineral reserves. Additionally, the tailings filtration plant and dry stack facility completed in 2021 conserve and recirculate water, eliminate risks related to traditional tailings facilities, accelerate reclamation of certain areas of the open pit mine, and extend the life of the operations. Currently 60% of the tails are sent to the dry stack facility, and the remaining 40% are sent to the underground operations in the form of paste fill for ground support. While the original tailings storage facility is available should the need arises, at this time, there is no plan to deposit tailings in this facility.

Grades & Recoveries

During the three months ended September 30, 2022, the majority of ore processed came from the Arista underground mine with an average gold grade of 1.98 g/t and silver grade of 80 g/t, compared to 2.68 g/t and 91 g/t, respectively, for the same period in 2021. The average gold grade was 26% lower and silver grade 12% lower.

 

Our base metals average grades during the three months ended September 30, 2022 were 0.37% copper, 1.59% lead, and 4.21% zinc. Copper grades were similar as in the same period in 2021. Lead and zinc grades were 31% and 12% lower, respectively, than in the same period in 2021.

Gold and silver recoveries for the three months ended September 30, 2022 were 82.9% and 91.3%, respectively, reflecting a 1.1% increase for gold and a 1.8% decrease for silver over the same period in 2021. Copper and zinc recoveries for the three months ended September 30, 2022 increased 6.4% and 13.2%, respectively, compared to the same period in 2021. Lead recoveries for the three months ended September 30, 2022 were 71.0%, reflecting a 0.6% decrease over the same period in 2021. Gold recoveries year-to-date have reached design objectives after the installation of the regrind circuit; however, during the third quarter, recoveries for all metals, with the exception of zinc, decreased as a result of a change in the mineralization of the ore processed. The mineralization is being evaluated to identify improvement opportunities that will benefit future recovery rates.

Year-to-date 2022 compared to year-to-date 2021

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Don David Gold Mine production totaled 26,355 gold ounces and 842,636 silver ounces, representing a 35% increase in gold production and a 3% decrease silver production, from the same period in 2021. The change directly results from higher gold grades and lower silver grades.

Production Volumes

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, total tonnes milled of 376,625 were in line with the same period in 2021. Metal production for gold, lead, and zinc increased during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to the same period last year, primarily due to increases in grades and recoveries.

Grades & Recoveries

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the majority of ore processed came from the Arista underground mine with an average gold grade of 2.57 g/t and silver grade of 75 g/t, compared to 2.04 g/t and 82 g/t, respectively, for the same period in 2021. The average gold grade was 26% higher and silver grade was 8% lower than in the same period in 2021, consistent with the current year mine plan.

 

Our base metals average grades during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 were 0.37% copper, 1.86% lead, and 4.38% zinc. Lead and zinc grades were 1% and 4% higher, while copper was 6% lower than the same period in 2021, consistent with the current year mine plan. Metal grades are contingent on the location of the ore mined within the deposit and will trend to the average grades reported in the Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resource tables contained in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Gold and silver recoveries for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 were 84.3% and 92.7%, respectively, reflecting a 3.8% and 0.3% increase over the same period in 2021. Gold recoveries have reached design objectives after the installation of the regrind circuit. Copper, lead, and zinc recoveries for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 increased by 0.3%, 1.3%, and 9.8%, respectively, compared to the same period in 2021.

Third quarter 2022 compared to third quarter 2021

Sales, net

DDGM net sales of $23.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 decreased by $5.2 million, or 18%, when compared to 2021. The decrease in 2022 sales is the result of decreased sales volumes and lower realized metal prices outlined in the sales statistics table above. Additionally, treatment and refining charges during the three months ended September 30, 2022 increased by 23% as a result of an increase in the zinc treatment charge benchmark and spot price.

Total cost of sales

Total cost of sales increased to $26.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 from $20.8 million for the same period in 2021. The $5.2 million increase was primarily related to a $3.1 million increase in depreciation expense and a $2.1 million increase in production costs. Depreciation expense was higher as a result of the addition of $16.9 million capital related to the dry stack and filtration plant and the gold regrind project that were placed in service in 2022, and the Mineral Reserve base being lower in the units of production calculation, resulting in higher depreciation cost per tonne of ore processed. Production costs of $19.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 are 13% higher than the production costs of $17.2 million for the same period in 2021. The increase is directly related to a 13% increase in ore tonnes processed.

Mine gross (loss) profit

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, mine gross profit decreased by 126%, or $10.4 million, compared to the same period in 2021. The decrease was primarily due to a 18%, or $5.2 million decrease in net sales and a 25%, or $5.2 million increase in cost of sales as described above.

The relationship between sales and the cost of sales, and therefore mine gross profit, is not perfectly correlated to the tonnes of ore processed. While both sales and the cost of sales are impacted by the tonnes of ore processed, other factors –the grade of ore processed, metal commodity prices, and operating cost unit prices—tend to have a greater impact on the relationship to mine gross profit. For example, in the third quarter of 2022, the volume of ore processed increased 13% compared to the third quarter of 2021; however, sales decreased by 18% and total cost of sales increased by 25%. The decrease in sales is explained by the decrease in grade and metal prices during the third quarter of 2022, and the increase in operating costs is explained by the increase in depreciation in addition to the impact from higher variable costs due to the higher ore tonnes processed.

We expect grades to vary from period to period based on the annual mine plan. The gold and silver grades are expected to trend downwards over time toward the average grade of 1.51 g/t and 77 g/t, respectively (and exclusive of copper, lead, and zinc contained grades), reflected in our Mineral Reserve estimate. However, as capital intensive mine development progresses and infill drilling occurs, opportunities to refine mining methods and eliminate dilution may have a favorable impact on future mined grades.

Table of Contents

Net (loss) income

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, we recorded net loss of $9.7 million, as compared to net income of $1.5 million during the same period in 2021. The 747% decrease in net income is attributable to the lower mine gross profit discussed above and higher other costs and expenses discussed below, including $3.8 million expenses related to the Back Forty Project.

Year-to-date 2022 compared to year-to-date 2021

Sales, net

DDGM net sales of $106.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 increased by $19.2 million, or 22%, when compared to the same period in 2021. The increase in 2022 sales is the result of increased sales volumes in gold, lead, and zinc, and higher realized metal prices for gold and zinc outlined in the Sales Statistics table above. Gold ounces sold for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 increased by 6,080 ounces, or 37% over the same period in 2021. Additionally, treatment and refining charges during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 increased by 7% as a result of an increase in the zinc treatment charge benchmark and spot price.

Total cost of sales

Total cost of sales increased to $81.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 from $63.4 million for the same period in 2021. The $17.8 million increase was primarily related to a $8.5 million increase in depreciation expense and a $9.2 million increase in production costs. Depreciation expense was higher as a result of the addition of $16.9 million capital related to the dry stack and filtration plant and the gold regrind project that were placed in service in 2022, and the Mineral Reserve base being lower in the units of production calculation, resulting in higher depreciation cost per tonne of ore processed. Production costs of $61.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 are 18% higher than the production costs of $52.0 million for the same period in 2021. The increase is primarily related to a $2.4 million increase in consumable goods driven by price increases, a $1.8 million increase in spare parts utilized for equipment maintenance, a $2.1 million impact related to an increase in headcount and employee wages, and a $1.6 million increase in transportation costs due to a 9% price increase in negotiated transportation cost.

Mine gross (loss) profit

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, mine gross profit increased by 6%, or $1.5 million, compared to the same period in 2021. The increase was primarily due to a 22%, or $19.2 million increase in net sales offset by a 28%, or $17.8 million increase in cost of sales as described above.

The relationship between sales and the cost of sales, and therefore mine gross profit, is not perfectly correlated to the tonnes of ore processed. While both sales and the cost of sales are impacted by the tonnes of ore processed, other factors –the grade of ore processed, metal commodity prices and operating cost unit prices—tend to have a greater impact on the relationship to mine gross profit. For example, in 2022, the volume of ore processed increased 3% compared to 2021; however, sales increased by 22% and total cost of sales increased by 28%. The increase in sales is explained by the increase in gold and zinc grade and metal prices during 2022, and the increase in operating costs is explained by the increase in depreciation in addition to the impact from higher costs related to price increases and increased wages as discussed above.

We expect grades to vary from period to period based on the annual mine plan. The gold and silver grades are expected to trend downwards over time toward the average grade of 1.51 g/t and 77 g/t, respectively (and exclusive of copper, lead and zinc contained grades), reflected in our Mineral Reserve estimate. However, as capital intensive mine development progresses and infill drilling occurs, opportunities to refine mining methods and eliminate dilution may have a favorable impact on future mined grades.

General and administrative expenses – For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, general and administrative expenses were $1.8 million and $5.6 million, respectively, representing a 24% and 7% decrease from the same period of 2021 primarily due to costs in 2021 related to employee and management changes.

DDGM Exploration expenses – For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, exploration expenses in DDGM totaled $1.1 million and $3.2 million, respectively, compared to $1.8 million and $3.7 million for the same period in 2021. Exploration activities in Oaxaca, Mexico decreased compared to the same period in 2021 due to the work being conducted to enhance community relationships.

Back Forty Project expenses – For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, feasibility study and permitting costs, totaled $3.8 million and $6.9 million, respectively. There were no expenses for the Back Forty Project for the same period in 2021 as the project was not acquired until December 2021. Until a Mineral Reserve and Mineral Resource is defined by Gold Resource Corporation, Back Forty expenditures will continue to be reported as advanced exploration expense.

 

Stock-based compensation – Stock-based compensation increased by $0.4 million and $0.9 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021. This increase is mainly due to the equity awarded in March 2022 to Senior Management related to 2021 performance, equity awarded in June 2022 related to Senior Management’s 2022 compensation structure, and DSUs granted in March 2022 to the Board of Directors related to their 2022 compensation structure. Equity awards were not issued to Senior Management during 2021. Management continues to work with an independent compensation consultant to evaluate the stock-based compensation program.

Realized and unrealized loss on zinc zero cost collar – For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, a $0.2 million gain and a $0.1 million loss was recorded related to the zinc zero cost collar. The zinc forward price decreased from $3,666 per tonne as of December 31, 2021 to $2,978 per tonne as of September 30, 2022. This decrease resulted in the $1.8 million liability as of December 31, 2021 turning into a $0.4 million asset as of September 30, 2022. The year-to-date loss of $0.1 million is the result of the year-to-date realized loss of $2.4 million offset by the $2.3 million unrealized gain related to the zero cost collars that will mature October through December 2022.

Other expense, net – For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, $0.8 million and $1.8 million of other expense was recorded compared to $0.0 million income and $0.5 million other expense during the same period of 2021. The $1.2 million increase in the year-to-date expense is primarily due to a $1.1 million increase in realized and unrealized foreign exchange loss and $0.6 million in interest expense related to the gold and silver stream liabilities assumed with the Aquila acquisition, offset by lower employee benefit obligations as the initial balance as a result of the Mexico Labor Reform was recorded as other expense in 2021 and going forward, they will be included in production costs. See Note 18 - Other expense, net for a detailed breakdown.

Provision for income taxes – For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, income tax benefit was $0.2 million and income tax expense was $8.9 million, a 109% decrease and a 33% increase from $2.4 million and $6.7 million expense for the same period in 2021. The decrease in income tax expense for the three months ended September 30, 2022 is driven by the 356% decrease in the three-month net income before income taxes. The increase in the income tax expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 is primarily due to a higher effective tax rate driven by the 2022 Tax Reform that decreased allowable deductions and a $0.8 million deferred tax liability recorded related to the 5% withholding tax on funds available for transfer to the U.S. as dividends in the future.

Other Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Total cash cost after co-product credits per AuEq oz sold – For the three months ended September 30, 2022, the total cash cost after co-product credits per AuEq oz sold is $1,103 compared to $448 for the three months ended September 30, 2021. During the third quarter of 2022, total cash cost per ounce is higher due to the lower amount of co-product credits we received related to the lower base metal prices realized, the 12% decrease in total number of gold equivalent ounces sold in the quarter, and higher production costs discussed above.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the total cash cost after co-product credits per AuEq oz sold is $314 compared to $519 for the same period in 2021. Year-to-date 2022, total cash cost per ounce is lower due to the higher amount of co-product credits we received during the first half of the year and the 13% increase in total number of gold equivalent ounces sold. These favorable impacts to total cash cost after co-product credits were offset by higher production costs discussed above.

Total consolidated all-in sustaining cost after co-product credits per AuEq oz sold – For the three months ended September 30, 2022, the total consolidated all-in sustaining cost after co-product credits per AuEq oz sold was $1,831 compared to $1,753 for the same period in 2021. The increase is directly related to the higher cash costs per ounce discussed above offset by lower sustaining capital expenditures.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the total consolidated all-in sustaining cost after co-product credits per AuEq oz sold was $938 compared to $1,318 for the same period in 2021. The decrease is directly related to the lower cash costs per ounce discussed above offset by higher sustaining capital expenditures and stock-based compensation.

Total all-in cost after co-product credits per AuEq oz sold – For the three months ended September 30, 2022, the total all-in cost after co-product credits per AuEq oz sold was $2,449 compared to $2,286 for the same period in 2021. The increase is due to the higher all-in sustaining costs discussed above and higher exploration expense related to advancing the Back Forty feasibility study work and permitting activities.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the total all-in cost after co-product credits per AuEq oz sold was $1,323 compared to $1,691 for the same period in 2021. The decrease is due to the lower all-in sustaining costs discussed above offset by higher exploration expense related to advancing the Back Forty feasibility study work and permitting activities.

The Company’s investment in Mexico continued in the third quarter of 2022 totaling $17.3 million year-to-date. Our investment in Mexico is focused on favorably impacting our environment, social and governance programs while creating operational efficiencies and longevity. At the Back Forty Project, $6.9 million has been invested in feasibility and permitting initiatives year-to-date.

Underground and Exploration Development:

Mine development during the quarter included ramps and access to different areas of the deposit, ventilation shafts, and exploration development drifts. A total of 3,210 meters of development, at a cost of $7.5 million (864 meters at a cost of $2.2 million in the third quarter), was completed during the year through September 30, 2022. Through September 30, 2022, underground mine development was $5.3 million and exploration development was $2.2 million (included in Infill Drilling and Exploration Development in the table above). As part of ongoing safety initiatives, the Company also invested in additional ground support and improved ventilation for the mine, which deliberately but temporarily slowed underground and exploration development. We plan to invest a total of $7.0 million to $8.0 million in underground development and an additional $3.5 million to $4.0 million in exploration development in 2022.

Back Forty Feasibility and Permitting:

Work on the optimized feasibility study progressed during the third quarter of 2022. Mine planning, process plant design and site layout and infrastructure were significantly completed during the quarter. Current initiatives are focused on finalizing the financial models with operating and capital costs, which may be subject to some volatility due to the inflationary market conditions. Environmental and cultural resource considerations have been a key factor in the overall project design. On August 5, 2022, the Company was invited by Michigan’s Department of Environment, Great Lakes and Energy to participate in a Scoping Environmental Impact Assessment Meeting to present the initial site plan and other key improvements being incorporated into the Back Forty Project’s optimized feasibility study. This was an opportunity to meet with tribal representatives to promote the Back Forty Project, which is focused on favorably impacting our environment, social and governance programs, while identifying economic and operational efficiencies. The feasibility study work for the Back Forty Project progressed during the third quarter of 2022. Work related to metallurgy and the economic model is expected to continue into 2023. Permit applications will not be submitted with state agencies in Michigan until the completion of the feasibility study.

2022 DDGM Exploration Updates

Our portfolio of properties that make up our Don David Gold Mine are located along a 55 kilometer trend of the San Jose structural corridor in the Sierra Madre Sur mountain range. This structural corridor trends north 70 degrees west and

spans three historic mining districts within Oaxaca. Surface exploration activity continues on several properties with a goal to define priority drill targets, demonstrating our commitment to a long-term investment in Oaxaca, Mexico.

Underground exploration drilling is ongoing, when access is available, from various locations within the Arista mine: 1) to continue testing of the Three Sisters Zone, as well as other new vein targets and 2) to further define and expand the Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resource of the current vein systems in production. The previously discussed temporary slowdown of mine development and exploration during the third quarter impacted the timing of the definition and expansion of Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves. Work on exploration development headings will resume in the fourth quarter, which will enable further expansion and infill drilling to advance in 2023 on both the Arista and Switchback vein systems.

During the quarter, we completed 4 exploration drill holes (2,409 meters) and 48 infill drill holes (8,590 meters). Year-to-date, we have completed 16 exploration drill holes (8,003 meters) and 127 infill drill holes (18,641 meters).

Infill drilling continued to focus on the Arista vein system up- and down-dip of existing workings. Additional drilling in the Switchback system continued in the third quarter. Infill drilling continues to confirm zones of high-grade mineralization within the resource model as well as additional mineralized structures outside existing models, in the third quarter, for instance, in the Marena zone (Arista), and Sarabi and Susana N veins (Switchback).
Exploration drilling continued to test expansion of the Switchback system to the southeast at depth and along strike and we have confirmed the continuation of the system. During Q4 we plan to continue exploration in the Three Sisters and northwestern part of the Switchback system. The Switchback system extends for over a kilometer along a NW-SE strike and remains open in both directions as well up- and down-dip.

Non-GAAP Measures

Throughout this report, we have provided information prepared or calculated according to U.S. GAAP and have referenced certain non-GAAP performance measures which we believe will assist with understanding the performance of our business. These measures are based on precious metal gold equivalent ounces sold and include cash cost before co-product credits per ounce, total cash cost after co-product credits per ounce, and total all-in sustaining cost per ounce (“AISC”). Because the non-GAAP performance measures do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by U.S. GAAP, they may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Accordingly, these measures should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for, measures of performance prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These non-GAAP measures are not necessarily indicative of operating profit or cash flow from operations as determined under GAAP.

 

For financial reporting purposes, we report the sale of base metals as part of our revenue. Revenue generated from the sale of base metals in our concentrates is considered a co-product of our gold and silver production for the purpose of calculating our total cash cost after co-product credits for our Don David Gold Mine. We periodically review our revenues to ensure that our reporting of primary products and co-products is appropriate. Because we consider copper, lead, and zinc to be co-products of our precious metal production, the value of these metals continues to be applied as a reduction to total cash costs in our calculation of total cash cost after co-product credits per precious metal gold equivalent ounce sold. Likewise, we believe the identification of copper, lead, and zinc as co-product credits is appropriate due to their lower per unit economic value contribution compared to the precious metals and since gold and silver are the primary products we intend to produce.

 

Total cash cost, after co-product credits, is a measure developed by the Gold Institute to provide a uniform standard for industry comparison purposes. AISC is calculated based on the current guidance from the World Gold Council.

 Total cash cost before co-product credits includes all direct and indirect production costs related to our production of metals (including mining, milling and other plant facility costs, smelter treatment and refining charges, royalties, and site general and administrative costs) less stock-based compensation allocated to production costs plus treatment and refining costs.

 

Total cash cost after co-product credits includes total cash cost before co-product credits less co-product credits, or revenues earned from base metals.

 

AISC includes total cash cost after co-product credits plus other costs related to sustaining production, including allocated sustaining general and administrative expenses, and sustaining capital expenditures. We determined sustaining capital expenditures as those capital expenditures that are necessary to maintain current production and execute the current mine plan.

 

Cash cost before co-product credits per ounce, total cash cost after co-product credits per ounce, and AISC are calculated by dividing the relevant costs, as determined using the cost elements noted above, by precious metal gold equivalent ounces sold for the periods presented.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of September 30, 2022, the working capital of $28.9 million, consists of current assets of $48.3 million and current liabilities of $19.5 million. This represents a 1% or $0.4 million decrease from the working capital balance of $29.3 million as of December 31, 2021. The primary factors influencing the decrease in our working capital was a decrease in the liability related to the zinc zero cost collar, as well as the cash provided by operating activities of $7.9 million, offset by $15.3 million of cash used in investing activities as reported in the Condensed Consolidated Interim Statements of Cash Flows. Our working capital balance fluctuates as we use cash to fund our operations, financing and investing activities, including exploration, mine development, income taxes, and shareholder dividends. We believe that as a result of our cash balances, the performance of our current and expected operations, and the current metals prices, we will be able to meet our obligations and other potential cash requirements for at least the next 12 months from the date of this report.

Long-term liabilities assumed with the Aquila acquisition, capital requirements to develop the Back Forty Project, and potential project financing may have an impact on liquidity in the long term. These long-term liabilities are contingent upon the approval of the Back Forty Project by the Company’s Board of Directors and securing project financing. Project financing is not expected to be required any earlier than 2024.

Cash and cash equivalents as of September 30, 2022 decreased to $22.5 million from $33.7 million as of December 31, 2021, a net decrease in cash of $11.2 million. The decrease is primarily due to cash spent on capital and exploration expenditures at DDGM and at the Back Forty Project, equity investment in Maritime, and tax payments for the 2021 and 2022 tax years, offset by cash inflow from operations.

Of the $22.5 million cash balance as of September 30, 2022, $20.3 million was held in foreign subsidiaries, primarily held in U.S. dollar denominated accounts with the remainder in foreign currencies readily convertible to U.S. dollars. The Don David Gold Mine’s primary source of liquidity is the sale of doré and concentrates. The Don David Gold Mine has been self-sustaining since production commencement in 2010 and has provided excess cash for U.S. operations and projects.

Net cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was $7.9 million compared to $21.9 million for the same period in 2021. Investing activities are mainly attributable to continued reinvestment in DDGM.

Net cash used in investing activities of $15.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was in line with the $15.2 million from the same period in 2021.

Net cash used in financing activities for nine months ended September 30, 2022 was a net outflow of $3.0 million compared to a net outflow of $2.2 million for same period in 2021. The change is primarily related to option exercises settled in cash in 2022.

While current macro risk factors, such as economic uncertainties, supply chain interruptions, and COVID-19 have not had a significant adverse impact on exploration plans, results of operations, financial position, and cash flows during the current fiscal year, future impacts are unknown at this time. However, we believe there is sufficient liquidity and capital resources to fund operations and corporate activities for the foreseeable future.

In May 2020, we filed a universal shelf registration statement with the SEC on Form S-3 for the proposed offering from time to time of up to $200,000,000 of our securities, including common stock, preferred stock, and/or warrants (the “Shelf Registration Statement”). We also entered into an At the Market Offering Agreement with H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC pursuant to which we may sell shares of our common stock under the Shelf Registration Statement at market prices from time to time. However, pursuant to General Instruction I.A.3 of Form S-3, we are not eligible to use the Shelf Registration Statement until the 2022 Form 10-K is filed in 2023 due to the late filing of a Form 8-K including the historical financial statements related to our acquisition of Aquila Resources. Based on our current cash balances and the anticipated performance of our current and expected operations, we do not currently expect that the unavailability of our Shelf Registration Statement or our inability to utilize the ATM Agreement will have a material impact on our liquidity.

For a discussion of Recently Adopted and Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements, please see Note - 2 Recently Adopted Accounting Standards in this Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements and Notes.

Forward-Looking Statements

This report contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. We use the words “anticipate,” “continue,” “likely,” “estimate,” “expect,” “may,” “could,” “will,” “project,” “should,” “believe” and similar expressions (including negative and grammatical variations) to identify forward looking statements. Such forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements regarding:

Our strategy for significant future investment in Oaxaca, Mexico and in Michigan, USA for development and exploration activities;
The anticipated beneficial impacts of the recently constructed dry stack tailings facility;
The expected timing for the Back Forty feasibility study, permitting, detailed engineering, and project financing;
Our expectations regarding future grades from mining at DDGM;
Expectations regarding 2022 capital investment, exploration spending, and general and administrative costs;
Future exploration plans at DDGM;
Compliance with existing legal and regulatory requirements, including future asset reclamation costs;
Estimates of Mineral Resources (“Mineral Resources”) and Mineral Reserves (“Mineral Reserves”);
Our expectations regarding the future payment of dividends; and
Our ability to satisfy our obligations and other potential cash requirements over the next twelve months.

Forward-looking statements are neither historical facts nor assurances of future performance. Rather, they are based only on our current beliefs, expectations, and assumptions regarding the future of our business, future plans and strategies, projections, anticipated events and trends, the economy, and other future conditions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks, and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict, and many of which are outside of our control. Our actual results and financial condition may differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements. Therefore, you should not rely on any of these forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause our actual results and financial condition to differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements include, among others, the following:

The extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, including the duration, spread, severity, and any repeated resurgence of the COVID-19 pandemic, the duration and scope of related government orders and restrictions, the impact on our employees, and the extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our mining operations;
Commodity price fluctuations;
Mine protests and work stoppages;
Rock formations, faults and fractures, water flow and possible CO2 gas exhalation, or other unanticipated geological challenges;
Unexpected changes in business and economic conditions, including supply chain challenges, the rate of inflation, and their impact on operating and capital costs;
Changes in interest rates and currency exchange rates;
Adverse technological changes and cybersecurity threats;
Unanticipated increases in our operating costs and other costs of doing business;
Access to land and availability of materials, equipment, supplies, labor and supervision, power, and water;
Results of current and future feasibility studies;

Interpretation of drill hole results and the geology, grade, and continuity of mineralization;
Litigation by private parties or regulatory action by governmental entities;
Acts of God, such as floods, earthquakes, and any other natural disasters;
The inherent uncertainty of Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserve estimates; and
Such other factors are discussed below under “Risk Factors”.

Many of these factors are beyond our ability to control or predict. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in our forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, such expectations may prove to be materially incorrect due to known and unknown risks and uncertainties. You should not unduly rely on any of our forward-looking statements. These statements speak only as of the date of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. Except as required by law, we are not obligated to publicly release any revisions to these forward-looking statements to reflect future events or developments. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us and persons acting on our behalf are qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained in this section and elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.

ITEM 3: Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Our exposure to market risks includes, but is not limited to, the following risks: changes in commodity prices, foreign currency exchange rates, provisional sales contract risks, changes in interest rates, and equity price risks. We do not use derivative financial instruments as part of an overall strategy to manage market risk; however, we may consider such arrangements in the future as we evaluate our business and financial strategy.

Commodity Price Risk

The results of our operations, cash flows, and financial condition depend in large part upon the market prices of gold, silver, copper, lead, and zinc. Metal prices fluctuate widely and are affected by numerous factors beyond our control. The level of interest rates, the rate of inflation, government fiscal and monetary policy, the stability of exchange rates, the world supply of and demand for gold, silver, and other metals, among other factors, can all cause significant fluctuations in commodity prices. Such external economic factors are in turn influenced by changes in international investment patterns, monetary systems, and political developments. The metal price markets have fluctuated widely in recent years, and future price declines could cause a mineral project to become uneconomic, thereby having a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition. We entered into a zinc zero cost collar to protect the selling price for zinc but have not entered into derivative contracts to protect the selling price for gold, silver, copper or lead. We may in the future more actively manage our exposure through additional derivative contracts, although we have no intention of doing so in the near-term. 

Effective May 18, 2021, the Company entered into a Trading Agreement with Auramet International LLC that govern non-exchange traded, over-the-counter, spot, forward, and option transactions on both a deliverable and non-deliverable basis involving various metals and currencies. Subsequently the Company entered into zinc zero cost collars. These derivatives are not designated as hedges. The zero cost collars are used to manage the Company’s near-term exposure to cash flow variability from zinc price risks. We do not currently use financial instruments with respect to any of the other base metal production.

In addition to materially adversely affecting our reserve estimates, results of operations and/or our financial condition, declining gold and silver prices could require a reassessment of the feasibility of a project. Even if a project is ultimately determined to be economically viable, the need to conduct such a reassessment may cause delays in the implementation of a project.

Foreign Currency Risk

Our foreign operation sells its gold, silver, copper, lead, and zinc production based on U.S. dollar metal prices. Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates do not have a material impact on our revenue since gold, silver, copper, lead, and zinc are sold throughout the world in U.S. dollars.

Foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations can increase or decrease our costs to the extent we pay costs in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar. We are primarily impacted by Mexican peso rate changes relative to the U.S. Dollar, as we incur some costs in the Mexican peso. When the value of the peso rises in relation to the U.S. Dollar, some of our costs in Mexico may increase, thus materially adversely affecting our operating results. Alternatively, when the value of the peso drops in relation to the U.S. Dollar, peso-denominated costs in Mexico will decrease in U.S. Dollar terms. Future fluctuations may give rise to foreign currency exposure, which may affect our financial results. Approximately 50% to 60% of expenses are paid in currencies other than the U.S. dollar.

 

We have not utilized market-risk sensitive instruments to manage our exposure to foreign currency exchange rates but may in the future actively manage our exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk.

Provisional Sales Contract Risk

 

We enter into concentrate sales contracts which, in general, provide for a provisional payment to us based upon provisional assays and prices. The provisionally priced sales contracts contain an embedded derivative that is required to be separated from the host contract for accounting purposes. The host contract is the receivable from the sale of concentrates determined at the quoted metal prices at the time of shipment delivery to the customer. The embedded derivative, which does not qualify for hedge accounting, is adjusted to market through revenue each period prior to settlement. Changes in the prices of metals between the shipment delivery and final settlement date will result in adjustments to revenues related to the sales of concentrate previously recorded upon shipment delivery. Please see Note 14—Derivatives in this Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements and Notes for additional information.

 

Interest Rate Risk

 

We consider our interest rate risk exposure to be insignificant at this time, as our interest rate is related and embedded in immaterial payments for office leases.

 

 Equity Price Risk 

 

We have in the past, and may in the future, seek to acquire additional funding through sale of common stock and other equity. The price of our common stock has been volatile in the past and may also be volatile in the future. As a result, there is a risk that we may not be able to sell our common stock at an acceptable price should the need for new equity funding arise.

ITEM 4: Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, with assistance from management, have evaluated the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2022. This evaluation included consideration of the material weakness in internal controls over financial reporting that was identified and disclosed in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2022 as the material weakness has not yet been fully remediated. Notwithstanding such material weakness in internal control over financial reporting, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, has concluded that our consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, our financial position, results of our operations, and our cash flows for the periods presented in this quarterly report, in conformity with U.S. GAAP.

Material Weakness in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Due to the Aquila acquisition on December 10, 2021, management performed review and approval controls related to the balances consolidated into the statement of financial position and statement of operations at December 31, 2021. The Aquila acquisition consisted of multiple complex valuations including the gold and silver stream agreements, the deferred tax liability and land. While multiple layers of approval and reasonableness tests were conducted, management prepared insufficient documentation related to the performance of these review controls to allow the independent registered public

accounting firm to reperform the controls. Additionally, due to the timing of the acquisition, it was necessary to perform these review controls in a compressed timeframe, which resulted in an adjustment identified by the independent registered public accounting firm between balance sheet accounts.

Due to the complexity of the acquisition, limited timing from the close of the transaction and the inherent limitation of internal controls over financial reporting, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021, had a material weakness related to the operating effectiveness of review controls over the accounting for and valuation of acquired assets and liabilities in the application of the acquisition method of accounting for asset acquisitions. All other internal controls over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021 and September 30, 2022 remained effective. Management continues to enhance documentation for significant (e.g., implementation of the PSU program) and /or unique (e.g., Maritime investment) transactions and evaluate if any additional action is required to further resolve and fully remediate the material weakness.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes that occurred during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, other than those enhancements to documentation discussed above, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1: Legal Proceedings

We know of no material, existing or pending legal proceedings against us, nor are we involved as a plaintiff in any material proceeding or pending litigation.

In February 2020, a local Ejido community (who claim to be an indigenous community) filed an injunction against the Mexican federal government through which they demanded the cancellation of several concession titles. The federal government ordered a suspension to prevent work related to excavating, drilling, opening tunnels and exploiting the mineral resources on the surface and subsoil of the concessions named in the injunction. Presently, the Don David Gold Mine does not perform such works in the named concessions in lands of the indigenous community. The lawsuit filed in February 2020 has not progressed to a final ruling.

ITEM 1A: Risk Factors

“Item 1A. Risk Factors” of our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 includes a discussion of our known material risk factors, other than risks that could apply to any issuer or offering. There have been no material changes from the risk factors described in our Form 10-K.

ITEM 2: Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

None

ITEM 3: Defaults upon Senior Securities

None

ITEM 4: Mine Safety Disclosures

While the Company owns an advanced exploration project in Michigan, USA, the project is not yet subject to the Mine Safety and Health Administration (“MSHA”) jurisdiction and therefore, the mine safety disclosure requirements are not applicable.
