Q1-2022 OVERVIEW AND HIGHLIGHTS

OVERVIEW

Dynacor completed the three-month period ended March 31, 2022 (“Q1-2022”) with quarterly sales of    $50.1 million and a record net income of $5.1 million (US$0.13 per share) compared to sales of $40.9 million and a net income of $2.1 million (US$0.05 per share) for the first quarter of 2021 (“Q1-2021”).

Due to an increase of 25.1% in tonnage processed combined with a 5.1% higher gold market price the Corporation sales increased by 22.5% compared to Q1-2021.

Following a +10.1% gain over the Peruvian Sol in 2021, the US dollar has lost 6.5% against the Peruvian Sol in Q1-2022. This reversal impacted favorably and significantly the Q1-2022 current and deferred tax expenses and accordingly the Corporation’s Q1-2022 net income.

⁽¹⁾ Cash gross operating margin per AuEq ounce is in US$ and is calculated by subtracting the average cash cost of sale per equivalent ounces of Au from the average selling price per equivalent ounces of Au and is a non-IFRS financial performance measure with no standard definition under IFRS. It is therefore possible that this measure could not be comparable with a similar measure of another company.

⁽²⁾ EBITDA: “Earnings before interest, taxes and depreciation” is a non-IFRS financial performance measure with no standard definition under IFRS. It is therefore possible that this measure could not be comparable with a similar measure of another corporation. The Corporation uses this non-IFRS measure as an indicator of the cash generated by the operations and allows investor to compare the profitability of the Corporation with others by canceling effects of different assets basis, effects due to different tax structures as well as the effects of different capital structures.

⁽³⁾ Cash-flow per share is a non-IFRS financial performance measure with no standard definition under IFRS. It is therefore possible that this measure could not be comparable with a similar measure of another corporation. The Corporation uses this non-IFRS measure which can also be helpful to investors as it provides a result which can be compared with the Corporation market share price.

RESULTS FROM OPERATIONS

Extract from the unaudited Consolidated Statement of net income and comprehensive income

The $9.2 million sales increase compared with Q1-2021 is explained by the increased number of gold ounces sold (+$6.8 million) and by higher selling prices (+2.4 million).

The Q1-2022 gross operating margin amounted to $7.5 million (15.0% of sales) compared to $5.3 million (13.0 % of sales) in Q1-2021 and beneficiated from the increase in selling prices and the favorable trend of gold market prices during the period.

General and administrative expenses amounted to $1.4 million in Q1-2022. The $0.2 million increase compared to Q1-2021 is mainly due to increases in salary expenses, and in promotion and investor relation expenses.

The Q1-2022 current tax provision was positively affected by the variance of the Peruvian Sol against the US$ generating a $0.5 million favorable variance compared to Q1-2021.

The Q1-2022 net income was also favorably affected by the recording of a $0.6 million deferred income tax recovery (non-cash) resulting from the increasing value throughout the period of the Peruvian Sol against the US$ and consequently FX variances applied on long term assets local tax basis. This recovery is generating a $0.9 million favorable variance compared to Q1-2021. Future fluctuations will affect positively or negatively the deferred tax at the end of each period.
