Review of Quarterly Financial Results
Profit attributable to shareholders of the Company was $3.8 million, or $0.01 per share, compared to a loss of $2.5 million, or $0.00 per share in 2016. Adjusted net earnings were $8.0 million ($0.01 per share) as compared to an adjusted net loss of $0.7 million ($0.00 per share) for the first quarter of 2016. The main difference between profit and adjusted earnings in the first quarter of 2017 was a $3.0 million adjustment related to closing cash / working capital recorded on finalization of the sale of the Company's Chinese assets (see the MD&A for a reconciliation of profit to adjusted earnings).
Gold sales of 74,068 ounces from continuing operations were consistent year over year, while gross profit from continuing gold mining operations increased $4.9 million due to higher gold prices and lower cash operating costs. General and administrative expenses increased $2.1 million year over year due to reorganization costs in Vancouver and Turkey. Exploration expense increased $3.2 million including $0.9 million related to development of an exploration drift at Stratoni. Mine standby costs of $1.0 million were recorded in the first quarter 2017 related to Vila Nova and Perama Hill (2016: $9.6 million mainly related to the temporary suspension of the Skouries development from January to May 2016). The effective tax rate of 80% was higher than an expected rate of 20%-30% due to withholding tax accruals in Turkey, foreign exchange effects on the local tax basis in Greece, and unrecognized losses in Canada and Greece. The relative impact of these factors was approximately equal.
First Quarter Review and 2017 Outlook
TURKEY
Kisladag
Kisladag reported gold production of 52,644 ounces for the quarter, in-line with production in the prior year. There was a reduction in ore tonnes to the leach pad year over year as low grade run-of-mine ore is no longer being placed on the pad. Average treated head grade and tonnes mined were higher year over year as the mine accessed higher grade ore at the bottom of the current cut back. Cash operating costs of $446 per ounce improved over 2016 due to higher average treated head grade, and reduced operating costs realized in labour and major consumables through operational improvements. Sustaining capital expenditures of $5.1 million were lower year over year due to reduced project work.
Efemcukuru
Gold production of 22,528 ounces for the quarter was slightly lower than 2016 due to the lower average treated head grade and slightly lower tonnes milled. Cash operating costs of $515 per ounce were higher year on year due to lower grade. Capital expenditures of $3.8 million included underground development, mine equipment overhauls, and process and waste rock/tailings facilities construction projects.
GREECE
Stratoni
Concentrate production for the first quarter was significantly higher year on year due to higher ore tonnes processed and higher zinc head grade. The mine and plant operated largely as planned in comparison to 2016 when operations were disrupted by a suspension of activities, with only two scheduled production days lost due to adverse winter weather conditions in January.
Development of the hangingwall exploration drift progressed according to plan and diamond drilling commenced from the first drill station. Extension of the main footwall access ramp below +117m level to open up future production areas commenced in earnest in January.
Olympias
Development of Olympias Phase II made significant progress during the quarter. The majority of installation work in the process plant, including piping and cabling, was completed and commissioning work commenced in late March. Ore mining and processing began in April. Commercial production is expected by the beginning of the third quarter.
Capital spending for the first quarter at Olympias was $37.1 million, with the majority deployed for continued underground development and rehabilitation in the Olympias underground, construction of the Phase II plant, and construction works in the Kokkinolakas tailings management facility.
During the quarter, the Company also announced that it had received multiple tenders for significantly better concentrate sales terms for gold concentrate produced beyond 2017. This is primarily due to the treatment of higher grade material resulting in better grades in concentrate produced. Under the new sales terms, gold payability rates have increased from 58% up to a maximum of 71%, which is expected to result in an increase of approximately 15,000 ounces of payable gold production per year. Annual Phase II production is now estimated to be approximately 85,000 ounces of gold (from 72,000 ounces per year previously) plus approximately 55,000 ounces of gold equivalent production.
Skouries
Work was restricted in the first quarter due to adverse winter weather. Earthworks, building erection and site clearing all progressed as weather allowed during the quarter. Targeted work included tailings thickener foundations and stockpile dome embankments. Engineering continued for the integrated waste management facility and the filter plant. Equipment selection for the main pressure filters for the filter plant was completed during the quarter. Total capital expenditure for the quarter was $14.0 million.
Perama Hill
The project remains on care and maintenance pending receipt of the Environmental Impact Study permit.
BRAZIL
Tocantinzinho
Installation licenses for the site, road and power line were under review by the Para State government during the first quarter. Basic engineering was nearly completed for the process plant. Detailed infrastructure engineering was ongoing and is expected to be completed during the second quarter. The installation license was received post quarter end, however the tailings and solution ponds permits remain outstanding and are expected later this year. A total of $1.9 million was spent during the quarter.
ROMANIA
Certej
Optimization studies continued during the quarter on the metallurgical process, water and waste management and site infrastructure to support the ongoing permitting activities. These optimizations are required for the oxidative process and the optimizations of waste and tailings material generated. Permitting for offsite infrastructure continued with work progressing on main power line, water tanks and mine access roads and water supply pipelines. A total of $1.9 million was spent during the quarter.
Exploration Review
Exploration activities during the quarter included reconnaissance-stage programs, drillhole targeting and drilling programs at our projects in Greece, Turkey, Romania, Serbia and Brazil. A total of 13,600 metres of exploration drilling was completed.
In Greece, the Company completed the drill-testing of the Fisoka porphyry prospect, and initiated drilling at the Tsikara porphyry prospect near Skouries. The underground resource drilling program at Mavres Petres commenced late in the quarter, targeting previously untested down-dip and along-strike projections of the orebody.
In Romania, drilling was conducted on the Certej North and Bolcana licenses, targeting the Bolcana porphyry system and related epithermal prospects on its periphery.
In Brazil, drilling programs tested both the Vulture and Parnamirim target areas within the Borborema project area in Pernambuco state. Regional geochemical sampling continued over the large Borborema project area, while at the Nazareno project, work focused on infill soil sampling, mapping, and geophysical surveys to refine targets for drilling during the second half of the year.
2017 Outlook
In 2017 Eldorado expects to produce 365,000-400,000 ounces of gold, including pre-commercial ounces from Olympias Phase II. Cash costs are forecasted at $485-535 per ounce, with all-in sustaining cash costs expected to range from $845-875 per ounce.
The Company's balance sheet remains one of the strongest in its peer group, with approximately $874 million in cash, cash equivalents and term deposits and $250 million in undrawn credit lines. Sustaining capital for gold mining operations in 2017 is estimated to be approximately $70 million. Planned expenditures for mining development total $345 million. Exploration expenditures in 2017 are budgeted at $35 million (65% expensed and 35% capitalized), with a balanced focus on resource delineation and brownfield drilling at existing operations, advancing early-stage projects, and project generation.
Depreciation, depletion and amortization expense is expected to be approximately $335 per ounce of gold sold. General and administrative expense is expected to be approximately $45 million.
Corporate
In December 2016, the Company announced that Paul Wright, Eldorado's current President and Chief Executive Officer, will retire from this role after the Annual General Meeting on April 27, 2017. Mr. Wright will be succeeded by Mr. George Burns, who will also join Eldorado's Board of Directors. Mr. Wright will continue as a member of Eldorado's Board of Directors, taking on the position of Vice-Chairman.
Mr. Ross Cory did not stand for re-election as a Director at the Company's Annual Meeting of Shareholders. Mr. Cory served on the Board for over 13 years and the Company would like to thank him for his many years of service and dedication.
