ALAMOS GOLD INC.
Notes to Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements
June 30, 2017 and 2016
(Unaudited - in United States dollars, unless otherwise indicated, tables stated in millions of United States dollars)

1. | NATURE OF OPERATIONS

Alamos Gold Inc., a company incorporated under the Business Corporation Act (Ontario), and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively the “Company”) are engaged in the acquisition, exploration, development and extraction of precious metals. The Company owns and operates the Young-Davidson mine in Canada, and the Mulatos and El Chanate mines in Mexico. In addition, the Company owns the Ağı Dağı, Kirazlı and Çamyurt gold development projects in Turkey, the Lynn Lake gold project in Canada, the Esperanza gold project in Mexico, as well as an option to acquire a 100% interest in the Quartz Mountain gold project in Oregon, USA.
Alamos is a publicly traded company with common shares listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX: AGI) and the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE: AGI).
The Company’s registered office is located at 181 Bay Street, Suite 3910, Toronto, Ontario, M5J 2T3.

2. | BASIS OF PREPARATION

Statement of Compliance
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting (“IAS 34”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). These statements were prepared using the same accounting policies and methods of computation as the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016, except as noted below.
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not include all disclosures required by International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) for annual consolidated financial statements and accordingly should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016 prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB.
The Company adopted the following accounting standards and amendments to accounting standards, effective January 1, 2017:
The Company adopted IFRS 9 (2014), Financial Instruments (“IFRS 9”). This standard replaces the guidance in IAS 39, Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement (“IAS 39”) on the classification and measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities. IFRS 9 provides a new model for the classification and measurement of financial assets. The classification depends on an entity's business model for managing its financial instruments and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the instrument. For financial liabilities, the standard retains most of the IAS 39 requirements. The main change is that in cases where the fair value option is selected for financial liabilities, the part of a fair value change due to an entity's own credit risk is recorded in other comprehensive income rather than the statements of operations, unless this creates an accounting mismatch. IFRS 9 has also been updated to amend the requirements around hedge accounting, which aligns hedge accounting more closely with risk management.
During the six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company designated as hedges foreign currency collars and forwards related to Canadian dollar and Mexican peso expenditures under IFRS 9. The adoption of IFRS 9 did not require the Company to re-state comparative prior period figures, as the adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s comparative information. The impact of applying hedge accounting during the six months ended June 30, 2017 is outlined in note 12.
Amendments to IAS 12, Income Taxes. The amendments clarify that the existence of a deductible temporary difference depends solely on a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset and its tax base at the end of the reporting period, and is not affected by possible future changes in the carrying amount or expected manner of recovery of the asset. The amendments also clarify the methodology to determine the future taxable profits used for assessing the utilization of deductible temporary differences. The amendments had no impact on the condensed interim consolidated financial statements.

|  | Q2 2017 FINANCIAL REPORT

Future accounting standard changes, not effective as of June 30, 2017:
On May 28, 2014 the IASB issued IFRS 15, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“IFRS 15”). This standard outlines a single comprehensive model with prescriptive guidance for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with its customers. IFRS 15 uses a control based approach to recognize revenue which is a change from the risk and reward approach under the current standard. This standard replaces IAS 18 Revenue, IAS 11 Construction Contracts and related interpretations. The effective date is for reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018 with early application permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of applying IFRS 15, primarily analyzing its concentrate sale agreements. The Company has not determined the impact of adopting IFRS 15 on the consolidated financial statements.
On January 6, 2016, the IASB issued IFRS 16, Leases (“IFRS 16”). This standard specifies the methodology to recognize, measure, present and disclose leases. The standard provides a single lessee accounting model, requiring lessees to recognize assets and liabilities for all leases unless the lease term is 12 months or less or the underlying asset has a low value. This standard replaces IAS 17 Leases. The effective date is for reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019 with early adoption permitted. The Company currently has not determined the impact of adopting IFRS 16, however, is in the process of developing an implementation plan to assess the effects on its consolidated financial statements.
The condensed interim consolidated financial statements were authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on August 1, 2017.

The Facility is secured by a first ranking lien on all material present and future assets, property and undertakings of the Company. The Facility contains various covenants customary for a loan facility of this nature, including limits on indebtedness, asset sales and liens. It contains financial covenant tests that include (a) a minimum interest coverage ratio of 3.0:1.0 and (b) a maximum net leverage ratio of 3.5:1.0, both as defined in the agreement. As at June 30, 2017, the Company is in compliance with the covenants.

The settlement of LTI is either in cash or equity depending on the feature of the specific LTI plan. The settlement of SARs is in cash, and RSUs, DSUs and PSUs are either cash or equity settled.
d) Earnings per share
Basic earnings or loss per share amounts are calculated by dividing earnings or loss for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, including the effects of dilutive common share equivalents.

| For the three months ended | For the six months ended
| June 30, | June 30, | June 30, | June 30,
| 2017 | 2016 | 2017 | 2016
Net earnings (loss) | $2.4 |  | ($11.8 | ) | $2.5 |  | ($2.1 | )
Weighted average number of common shares outstanding (in thousands) | 299,189 |  | 264,464 |  | 292,008 |  | 263,431 |
Basic earnings (loss) per share |  | $0.01 |  |  | ($0.04 | ) |  | $0.01 |  |  | ($0.01 | )
Dilutive effect of potential common share equivalents | 3,573 |  | — |  | 3,791 |  | — |
Diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding (in thousands) | 302,762 |  | 264,464 |  | 295,799 |  | 263,431 |
Diluted earnings (loss) per share |  | $0.01 |  |  | ($0.04 | ) |  | $0.01 |  |  | ($0.01 | )

The following table lists the equity instruments excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share. The instruments were excluded as the exercise price relating to the particular security exceeded the average market price of the Company's common shares of CAD $9.54 and CAD $10.05 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 (three and six months ended June 30, 2016 - CAD $8.80 and CAD $7.21).
For the periods in which the Company records a loss, diluted loss per share is calculated using the basic weighted average number of shares outstanding, as using the diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding in the calculation would be anti-dilutive.

(e) Dividends
On April 28, 2017, the Company paid a dividend of $3.0 million or $0.01 per share.
(f) Share purchase warrants
The Company has the following share purchase warrants ("Warrants"), outstanding as at June 30, 2017 related to past acquisitions:

| Number of warrants |  | Common shares issuable |  | Exercise price |  | Expiry date
| (000s) |  | (000s) |  | CAD |  |
Warrants - Esperanza (AGI.WT) | 7,167 |  | 7,167 |  | $28.46 |  | August 30, 2018
Warrants - Carlisle (AGI.WT.A) | 4,964 |  | 4,964 |  | $10.00 |  | January 7, 2019
| 12,131 |  | 12,131 |  |  |

The Warrants issued in relation to the Esperanza acquisition in 2013 are classified as a derivative liability recorded at fair value through profit or loss, due to the currency of the exercise price of the warrants. The warrants are priced in Canadian dollars, which is not the functional currency of the Company. Therefore the warrants are fair valued using the market price with gains or losses recorded in net loss. The Company recorded a gain of $0.9 million and $1.7 million recorded in other gains for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 (three and six months ended June 30, 2016 - loss of $1.6 million and $2.0 million).

12. | FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments
The Company has adopted IFRS 9, with an initial application date of January 1, 2017. The approach in IFRS 9 is based on how an entity manages its financial instruments and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset. Most of the requirements in IAS 39 for classification and measurement of financial liabilities were carried forward in IFRS 9. IFRS 9 introduced a single expected credit loss impairment model, which is based on changes in credit quality since initial application.
The adoption of the expected credit loss impairment model had no impact on the Company’s financial statements. The Company's financial instruments are accounted for as follows under IFRS 9 as compared to the Company's previous policy in accordance with IAS 39:

| IAS 39 | IFRS 9
Cash and cash equivalents | Fair value through profit or loss | Amortized cost

The Company has adopted the standard retroactively effective January 1, 2017 and elected not to retroactively restate comparative periods. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, but resulted in certain additional disclosures. There was no impact on carrying values and equity as at January 1, 2017 as a result of the adoption of the standard and no measurement differences as result of adopting IFRS 9.
As a result of the adoption of IFRS 9, the Company's accounting policy for financial instruments has been updated as follows:
Financial assets
Financial assets are classified as either financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, amortized cost, or fair value through other comprehensive income. The Company determines the classification of its financial assets at initial recognition.
i. Financial assets recorded at fair value through profit or loss
Financial assets are classified at fair value if they are acquired for the purpose of selling in the near term. Gains or losses on these items are recognized in net earnings or loss.

ii. Amortized cost
Financial assets are classified at amortized cost if both of the following criteria are met and the financial assets are not designated as at fair value through profit and loss: 1) the object of the Company’s business model for these financial assets is to collect their contractual cash flows and 2) the asset’s contractual cash flows represent ‘solely payments of principal and interest’. The Company’s amounts receivable are recorded at amortized cost as they meet the required criteria. A provision is recorded when the estimated recoverable amount of the financial asset is lower than the carrying amount.
iii. Fair value through other comprehensive income ("OCI")
For equity securities that are not held for trading, the Company can make an irrevocable election at initial recognition to classify the instruments at fair value through other comprehensive income ("FVOCI"), with all subsequent changes in fair value being recognized in other comprehensive income. This election is available for each separate investment. Under this new FVOCI category, fair value changes are recognized in OCI while dividends are recognized in profit or loss. On disposal of the investment the cumulative change in fair value remains in OCI and is not recycled to profit or loss.
iv.. Reclassifications
Financial assets are not reclassified subsequent to their initial recognition, except in the period after the Company changes its business model for managing financial assets.
Financial liabilities
For financial liabilities, IFRS 9 retains most of the IAS 39 requirements and since the Company does not have any financial liabilities designated at fair value through profit or loss, the adoption of IFRS 9 did not impact the Company's accounting policies for financial liabilities. Accounts payable and accrued liabilities, as well as debt and financing obligations are accounted for at amortized cost.
Transaction costs associated with financial instruments, carried at fair value through profit or loss, are expensed as incurred, while transaction costs associated with all other financial instruments are included in the initial carrying amount of the asset or the liability. The amortization of debt issue costs is calculated using the effective interest method.
Derivative financial instruments
The Company may hold derivative financial instruments to hedge its risk exposure to fluctuations in commodity prices, including the Company’s final product, consumables and other currencies compared to the USD. Derivative financial instruments are measured at fair value at each reporting period.
Non-hedged derivative financial instruments
All derivative instruments not designated in a hedge relationship that qualifies for hedge accounting are classified as financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss. Changes in fair value of non-hedged derivative financial instruments are included in net earnings or loss as non-hedged derivative gains or losses.
Hedges
The Company formally documents all relationships between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as its risk management objectives and strategies for undertaking hedge transactions. This process includes linking all derivative hedging instruments to forecasted transactions. Hedge effectiveness is assessed based on the degree to which the cash flows from the derivative contracts are expected to offset the cash flows of the underlying transaction being hedged.
When a derivative is designated as a cash flow hedging instrument, the effective portion of changes in fair value is recognized in other comprehensive income. For hedged items other than the purchase of non-financial assets, the amounts accumulated in other comprehensive income are reclassified to the consolidated statement of other comprehensive income when the underlying hedged transaction, identified at contract inception, affects profit or loss. When hedging a forecasted transaction that results in the recognition of a non-financial asset, the amounts accumulated in other comprehensive income are removed and added to the carrying amount of the non-financial asset.
Any ineffective portion of a hedge relationship is recognized immediately in net earnings or loss. When derivative contracts designated as cash flow hedges are terminated, expired, sold or no longer qualify for hedge accounting, hedge accounting is discontinued prospectively. Any amounts recorded in other comprehensive income up until the time the contracts do not qualify for hedge accounting remain in other comprehensive income.

|  | Q2 2017 FINANCIAL REPORT

Gains or losses arising subsequent to the derivative contracts not qualifying for hedge accounting are recognized in the period incurred in net earnings or loss. If the forecasted transaction is no longer expected to occur, then the amounts accumulated in other comprehensive income are reclassified to net earnings or loss immediately.
Fair values of financial instruments
The following table sets forth the Company’s financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis by level within the fair value hierarchy. The Company does not have any non-recurring fair value measurements as at June 30, 2017. Levels 1 to 3 of the fair value hierarchy are defined based on the degree to which fair value inputs are observable or unobservable, as follows:

• | Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

• | Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the net asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and

• | Level 3 inputs are unobservable (supported by little or no market activity).

| June 30, 2017 | December 31, 2016
| Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 1 | Level 2
Financial assets |  |  |  |
Fair value through profit or loss |  |  |  |
Prepayment option embedded derivative | — |  | — |  | — |  | 9.6 |
Gold options | — |  | 1.8 |  | — |  | 3.3 |
Fair value through OCI |  |  |  |
Equity securities | 16.7 |  | — |  | 14.1 |  | — |
Currency hedging derivative instruments | — |  | 6.9 |  | — |  | — |
Financial liabilities |  |  |  |
Fair value through profit or loss |  |  |  |
Share purchase warrants | (0.6 | ) | — |  | (2.4 | ) | — |
Currency derivative instruments | — |  | — |  | — |  | (3.3 | )
| $16.1 |  | $8.7 |  | $11.7 |  | $9.6 |

The methods of measuring financial assets and liabilities has not changed during the six months ended June 30, 2017. The Company does not have any financial assets or liabilities measured at fair value based on unobservable inputs (Level 3).
The fair value of option and forwards (gold and currency) contracts are determined using a market approach with reference to observable market prices for identical assets traded in an active market. These are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The use of reasonably possible alternative assumptions would not significantly affect the Company’s results.

Derivative Instruments
The fair value of derivative instruments is as follows:

|  |  | June 30, | December 31,
|  |  | 2017 | 2016
Derivatives designated as hedging instruments |  |  |  |
Currency hedging derivative instruments |  |  | $6.9 |  | — |
Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments |  |  |  |
Gold option asset |  |  | $1.8 |  | $3.3 |
Currency derivative instruments |  |  | — |  | (3.3 | )
Share purchase warrants liability |  |  | (0.6 | ) | (2.4 | )
|  |  | $1.2 |  | ($2.4 | )

Currency derivative contracts
The Company enters into option and forward contracts to protect against the risk of an increase in the value of the Canadian dollar and Mexican peso versus the US dollar. These option and forward contracts are for the purchase of local currencies and the sale of US dollars, which settle on a monthly basis, and the Company believes this is an appropriate manner of managing currency risk.
During the six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company has designated options and forwards as cash flow hedges for the highly probable Canadian dollar and Mexican peso purchases. These derivatives meet the hedge effectiveness criteria and are designated in a hedge accounting relationship as a result of the following factors:

• | An Economic relationship exists between the hedged item and hedging instrument, as notional amounts match and both the hedged item and hedging instrument fair values move in response to the same risk (foreign exchange rates). There are no significant reasons or causes for the designated hedged item and hedging instrument to be mismatched since the hedging instrument matures during the same month as the expected hedged expenditures is incurred (hedged item). The correlation between the foreign exchange rate of the hedged item and the hedging instrument should be highly correlated and closely aligned as the maturity and the notional amount are the same.

• | The hedge ratio is one to one for this hedging relationship, as the hedged item is foreign currency risk that is hedged with a foreign currency hedging instrument.

• | Credit risk is not material in the fair value of the hedging instrument.

The Company has identified two sources of potential ineffectiveness: 1) the timing of cash flow differences between the expenditure and the related derivative and 2) the inclusion of credit risk in the fair value of the derivative not replicated in the hedged item. The Company expects the impact of these sources of hedge ineffectiveness to be minimal. The timing of hedge settlements and incurred expenditures are closely aligned, as they are expected to occur within 30 days of each other. As noted above, credit risk is not a material component of the fair value of the Company’s hedging instruments, as all counterparties are reputable Canadian banking institutions and are highly rated.

The effective portion of the changes in fair value of the hedging instrument for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income are:

| Three months ended | Six months ended
| June 30, | June 30, | June 30, | June 30,
| 2017 | 2016 | 2017 | 2016
Balance, beginning of the period | $1.9 |  | — |  | — |  | — |
Gains on currency instruments | 6.1 |  | — |  | 8.6 |  | — |
Less: realized gains on CAD currency instruments | (0.1 | ) | — |  | (0.3 | ) | — |
Less: realized gains on MXN currency instruments | (0.9 | ) | — |  | (0.7 | ) | — |
Deferred income tax related to hedging instrument | (1.3 | ) | — |  | (1.9 | ) | — |
Balance, June 30, 2017 | $5.7 |  | — |  | $5.7 |  | — |

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company did not recognize any ineffectiveness on the hedging instruments.
The contracts, which settle on a monthly basis, are summarized as follows:
Canadian dollar contracts

Period Covered | Contract type | Contracts (CAD$ Millions) | Average minimum rate (USD/CAD) | Average maximum rate (USD/CAD)
2017 | Collars and forwards | 117 | 1.29 | 1.39

Mexican Peso contracts

Period Covered | Contract type | Contracts (MXN Millions) | Average minimum rate (MXN/USD) | Average maximum rate (MXN/USD)
2017 | Collars and forwards | 735.0 | 18.85 | 21.81

The fair value of these contracts was an asset of $6.9 million at June 30, 2017 (December 31, 2016 - liability of $3.3 million). For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company realized gains of $1.0 million on the foreign currency contracts (for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 - realized losses of $0.3 million and $1.0 million).
The following table illustrates unrealized gains (losses) on foreign currency contracts:

| Three months ended | Six months ended

Gold option contracts
As at June 30, 2017, the Company held option contracts to protect against the risk of a decrease in the value of the gold price on a portion of gold sales. These option contracts ensure a minimum average realized gold price of $1,242 per ounce and a maximum average realized gold price of $1,409 per ounce, regardless of the movement in gold prices during 2017.
The following gold collar contracts are outstanding as of June 30:

Period Covered | Ounces subject to contract |  | Average purchase put option |  | Average sold call option |
2017 | 77,640 |  | $1,242 |  | $1,409 |

The fair value of these contracts was an asset of $1.8 million at June 30, 2017 (December 31, 2016 - asset of $3.0 million). The options mature through 2017.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company realized no gain or loss related to the settlement of option contracts (for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 - realized losses of $0.2 million and $0.7 million). Total unrealized losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 was a gain of $0.9 million and a loss of $1.4 million (for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 - unrealized losses of $0.7 million and $1.7 million). The Company has elected to not apply hedge accounting to the gold option contracts, with changes in fair value recorded in net earnings.
