DENISON MINES CORP.
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited — Expressed in U.S. dollars, unless otherwise noted)
1.  
NATURE OF OPERATIONS
Denison Mines Corp. (“DMC”) is incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario) (“OBCA”). Denison Mines Corp. and its subsidiary companies and joint ventures (collectively, the “Company”) are engaged in uranium mining and related activities, including acquisition, exploration and development of uranium bearing properties, extraction, processing, selling and reclamation. The environmental services division of the Company provides mine decommissioning and decommissioned site monitoring services for third parties.
The Company has a 100% interest in the White Mesa mill located in Utah, United States and a 22.5% interest in the McClean Lake mill located in the Athabasca Basin of Saskatchewan, Canada. The Company has interests in a number of nearby mines at both locations, as well as interests in development and exploration projects located in Canada, the United States, Mongolia and Zambia, some of which are operated through joint ventures and joint arrangements. Uranium, the Company’s primary product, is produced in the form of uranium oxide concentrates (“U3O8”) and sold to various customers around the world for further processing. Vanadium, a co-product of some of the Company’s U.S mines is also produced and is in the form of vanadium pentoxide (“V2O5”). The Company is also in the business of processing uranium bearing waste materials, referred to as “alternate feed materials”.
Denison Mines Inc. (“DMI”), a subsidiary of DMC, is the manager of Uranium Participation Corporation (“UPC”), a publicly-listed investment holding company formed to invest substantially all of its assets in U3O8 and uranium hexafluoride (“UF6”). The Company has no ownership interest in UPC but receives various fees for management services and commissions from the purchase and sale of U3O8 and UF6 by UPC.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
These unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared by management in U.S. dollars, unless otherwise stated, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in Canada (“Canadian GAAP”) for interim financial statements.
Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with Canadian GAAP have been condensed or excluded. As a result, these unaudited interim consolidated financial statements do not contain all disclosures required for annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2009.
All material adjustments which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for fair presentation of the results of the interim periods have been reflected in these financial statements. The results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements are prepared following accounting policies consistent with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2009, except for the changes noted under the “New Accounting Standards Adopted” section below.

As interests in unincorporated joint ventures, or jointly controlled assets
               
McClean Lake
  Canada     22.50 %
Midwest
  Canada     25.17 %
New Accounting Standards Adopted
The Company adopted the following new accounting standards issued by the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants (“CICA”) Handbook effective January 1, 2010:
CICA Handbook Section 1582 “Business Combinations”, Section 1601 “Consolidated Financial Statements” and Section 1602 “Non-Controlling Interests” which replace the former CICA 1581 “Business Combinations” and CICA 1600 “Consolidated Financial Statements” and establish a new section for accounting for a non-controlling interest in a subsidiary. These sections provide the Canadian equivalent to FASB Statements No.141(R) “Business Combinations” and No.160 “Non-Controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements”. CICA 1582 is effective for business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period after January 1, 2011. CICA 1601 and CICA 1602 apply to interim and annual consolidated financial statements relating to years beginning on or after January 1, 2011 although early adoption is permitted. CICA 1582, which replaces Handbook Section 1581, Business Combinations, establishes standards for the measurement of a business combination and the recognition and measurement of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. CICA 1601, which replaces Handbook Section 1600, carries forward the existing Canadian guidance on aspects of the preparation of consolidated financial statements subsequent to acquisition other than non-controlling interests. CICA 1602 establishes guidance for the treatment of non-controlling interests subsequent to acquisition through a business combination. The Company has early adopted all three sections effective January 1, 2010. There was no impact to the Company’s financial statements from adopting these standards.
Comparative Numbers
Certain classifications of the comparative figures have been changed to conform to those used in the current period.

CAPITAL MANAGEMENT AND FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Capital Management
The Company’s capital includes cash and shareholders’ equity. The Company’s primary objective with respect to its capital management is to ensure that it has sufficient capital to maintain its ongoing operations, to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to pursue growth opportunities.
Fair Values of Financial Instruments
The Company examines the various financial instrument risks to which it is exposed and assesses the impact and likelihood of those risks. These risks may include credit risk, liquidity risk, currency risk, interest rate risk and price risk.
(a) Credit Risk
Credit risk is the risk of loss due to a counterparty’s inability to meet its obligations under a financial instrument that will result in a financial loss to the Company. The carrying amount of financial assets represents the maximum credit exposure. The Company trades only with recognized, credit worthy third parties.

 

- 21 -


 

The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date is as follows:
         
    At September 30  
(in thousands)   2010  
 
       
Cash and cash equivalents
  $ 33,106  
Trade and other receivables
    13,431  
Investments
    2,310  
Restricted cash and investments
    23,137  
 
     
 
  $ 71,984  
 
     
(b) Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulties in meeting obligations associated with its financial liabilities and other contractual obligations. The Company has in place a planning and budgeting process to help determine the funds required to support the Company’s normal operating requirements on an ongoing basis. The Company ensures that there is sufficient committed capital to meet its short-term business requirements, taking into account its anticipated cash flows from operations and its holdings of cash and cash equivalents.
The maturities of the Company’s financial liabilities are as follows:
                 
    Within 1     1 to 5  
(in thousands)   Year     Years  
 
               
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities
  $ 14,312     $  
Debt obligations (Note 12)
    106       225  
 
           
 
  $ 14,418     $ 225  
 
           
(c) Currency Risk
Foreign exchange risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company operates internationally and is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from various currency exposures. Foreign exchange risk arises from assets and liabilities that are denominated in a currency that is not the functional currency for the relevant subsidiary company.
Currently, the Company does not have any foreign exchange hedge programs in place and manages its operational foreign exchange requirements through spot purchases in the foreign exchange markets.
The sensitivity of the Company’s operations and other comprehensive income due to changes in the exchange rate between the Canadian dollar and its Zambian kwacha functional currencies and its United States dollar reporting currency as at September 30, 2010 is summarized below:
