DENISON MINES CORP.

Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013

(Unaudited—Expressed in U.S. dollars except for shares and per share amounts)

 

1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS

Denison Mines Corp. and its subsidiary companies and joint arrangements (collectively, the “Company”) are engaged in uranium mining and related activities, including acquisition, exploration and development of uranium bearing properties, extraction, processing and selling of uranium.

The Company has a 22.5% interest in the McClean Lake mill located in the Athabasca Basin of Saskatchewan, Canada and varying ownership interests in a number of development and exploration projects located in Canada, Mongolia, Mali, Namibia, Niger and Zambia. Through its environmental services division, the Company provides mine decommissioning and decommissioned site monitoring services to third parties.

The Company is also the manager of Uranium Participation Corporation (“UPC”), a publicly-listed investment holding company formed to invest substantially all of its assets in uranium oxide concentrates (“U3O8”) and uranium hexafluoride (“UF6”). The Company has no ownership interest in UPC but receives fees for management services and commissions from the purchase and sale of U3O8 and UF6 by UPC.

Denison Mines Corp. (“DMC”) is incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario) and domiciled in Canada. The address of its registered head office is 595 Bay Street, Suite 402, Toronto, Ontario, Canada, M5G 2C2.

 

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) applicable to the preparation of interim financial statements, including IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting. The condensed interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013.

The Company’s presentation currency is U.S. dollars.

These financial statements were approved by the board of directors for issue on May 8, 2014.

 

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The significant accounting policies followed in these condensed interim consolidated financial statements are consistent with those applied in the Company’s annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013, except as described below.

Accounting Standards Adopted

The Company has adopted the following new and revised accounting standards, along with any consequential amendments, effective January 1, 2014. These changes were made in accordance with the applicable transitional provisions.

International Accounting Standard 36, Impairment of Assets (“IAS 36”)

IAS 36 was amended in May 2013 to make small changes to the disclosures required by IAS 36 when an impairment loss is recognized or reversed. The amendments require the disclosure of the recoverable amount of an asset or cash generating unit (“CGU”) at the time an impairment loss has been recognized or reversed and detailed disclosure of how the associated fair value less costs of disposal has been determined.

The amendments are effective for accounting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2014 with earlier adoption permitted. The Company has adopted the amended disclosure requirements of IAS 36 effective January 1, 2014.

 

- 5 -


Accounting Standards Issued But Not Yet Applied

The Company has not yet adopted the following new accounting pronouncements which are effective for fiscal periods of the Company beginning on or after January 1, 2015:

International Financial Reporting Standard 9, Financial Instruments (“IFRS 9”)

IFRS 9 was issued in October 2010 by the IASB to replace IAS 39, Financial Instruments – Recognition and Measurement. The replacement standard has the following significant components: it establishes two primary measurement categories for financial assets – amortized cost and fair value; it establishes criteria for the classification of financial assets within the measurement category based on business model and cash flow characteristics; and it eliminates existing held to maturity, available-for-sale, and loans and receivable categories.

In November 2013, the IASB issued an amendment to IFRS 9 which includes a new hedge model that aligns accounting more closely with risk management and enhances disclosure about hedge accounting and risk management. Additionally, as the impairment guidance and certain limited amendments to the classification and measurement requirements of IFRS 9 are not yet complete, the previously mandated effective date of IFRS 9 of January 1, 2015 has been removed. Entities may apply IFRS 9 before the IASB completes the amendments but are not required to do so.

The Company has not evaluated the impact of adopting this standard.

 

4. ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES

Acquisition of Rockgate Capital Corp Non-Controlling Interest

In January 2014, pursuant to a plan of arrangement, Denison acquired the remaining 10.38% non-controlling interest of Rockgate Capital Corp. (“Rockgate”) it had not previously acquired under its takeover bid in fiscal 2013. Denison now owns 100% of Rockgate and its subsidiaries.

The consideration relating to the acquisition of the 10.38% non-controlling interest in Rockgate under the plan of arrangement is summarized below:

 

(in thousands except for share amounts)

      

Fair value of 2,312,622 common shares issued by Denison

   $ 3,034   

Costs incurred by the Company pursuant to the plan of arrangement:

  

Arrangement transaction costs

     57   
  

 

 

 

Fair value of total consideration

   $ 3,091   
  

 

 

 

The fair value of the common shares issued by Denison totaled $3,034,000. The fair value of the common shares was determined using Denison’s closing share price on January 17, 2014 of CAD$1.44 converted to USD$ using the January 17, 2014 foreign exchange rate of 0.9111.

Plant and Equipment-Mining

The Company has a 22.5% interest in the McClean Lake mill located in the Athabasca Basin of Saskatchewan, Canada. In March 2014, the first ore from the Cigar Lake mine was received at the mill. Commissioning of the mill circuits is continuing in anticipation of the start of processing of Cigar Lake ore later in 2014 pursuant to the terms of a toll milling agreement signed with the participants in the Cigar Lake Joint Venture (“CLJV”).

Plant and Equipment—Services and Other

The environmental services division of the Company provides mine decommissioning and decommissioned site monitoring services for third parties.

Mineral Properties

The Company has various interests in development and exploration projects located in Canada, Mongolia, Mali, Namibia, Niger and Zambia which are held directly or through option or various contractual agreements.

Canada Mining Segment

In March 2014, the Company released its land holdings related to the Black Lake property acquired as part of the JNR acquisition. The Company has recognized an impairment charge of $1,658,000 in its Q1-2014 results to reflect the abandonment of this property.

Africa Mining Segment-Namibia

In March 2014, Rio Tinto Mining and Exploration (“Rio”) terminated its option to earn an interest in the Dome project under the provisions of a previously entered into earn-in agreement between the parties. Rio discontinued activities at the site at the end of February 2014.

Site Restoration: Elliot Lake

Spending on restoration activities at the Elliot Lake site is funded from monies in the Elliot Lake Reclamation Trust fund (see note 8).

Site Restoration: McClean Lake Joint Venture and Midwest Joint Venture

Under the Mineral Industry Environmental Protection Regulations (1996), the Company is required to provide its pro-rata share of financial assurances to the province of Saskatchewan relating to future decommissioning and reclamation plans that have been filed and approved by the applicable regulatory authorities. As at March 31, 2014, the Company has provided irrevocable standby letters of credit, from a chartered bank, in favour of Saskatchewan Environment, totalling CAD$9,698,000.

Under the terms of a Potentially Reactive Waste Rock Disposal Agreement (“PRWR Agreement”) between the McClean Lake Joint Venture (“MLJV”) and the CLJV, the MLJV agreed to deposit certain waste rock material from the Cigar Lake mine in its mined-out Sue C pit. In return, the CLJV has agreed to reimburse the MLJV for additional site restoration costs that may reasonably occur as a result.

In March 2014, in conjunction with the delivery of the first Cigar Lake mine ore to the McClean Lake mill, the CLJV is required to make a payment of CAD$4,307,050 to the MLJV under the terms of the PRWR Agreement. Denison has recorded its proportionate share of this amount of $878,000 (CAD$969,100) as a component of its “Reclamation obligations”.

At March 31, 2014, the Company has no outstanding borrowings under the facility (December 31, 2013—$nil) and is in compliance with its facility covenants. At March 31, 2014, approximately CAD$9,698,000 (December 31, 2013: CAD$9,698,000) of the facility is unavailable to draw upon as it is being utilized as collateral for certain letters of credit. During the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company did not incur any interest under the facility.

Acquisition Related Issues

In January 2014, the Company issued 2,312,622 shares at a value of $3,034,000 (CAD$3,330,000) as part of the acquisition of Rockgate’s non-controlling interest (see note 4).

Flow-Through Share Issues

The Company finances a portion of its exploration programs through the use of flow-through share issuances. Canadian income tax deductions relating to these expenditures are claimable by the investors and not by the Company.

As at March 31, 2014, the Company estimates that it has spent CAD$9,451,000 of its CAD$14,950,000 May 2013 flow-through share obligation. The Company renounced the income tax benefits of this issue to its subscribers in February 2014. In conjunction with the renunciation, the flow-through share premium liability has been reversed and recognized as part of the deferred tax recovery (see notes 14 and 22).

Korea Electric Power Corporation (“KEPCO”)

In June 2009, Denison completed definitive agreements with KEPCO including a long-term offtake agreement (which has been assigned to Energy Fuels Inc. (“EFR”) as part of the U.S. Mining Division transaction completed in June 2012) and a strategic relationship agreement. Pursuant to the strategic relationship agreement, KEPCO is entitled to subscribe for additional common shares in Denison’s future share offerings. The strategic relationship agreement also provides KEPCO with a right of first opportunity if Denison intends to sell any of its substantial assets, a right to participate in certain purchases of substantial assets which Denison proposes to acquire and a right to nominate one director to Denison’s board so long as its share interest in Denison is above 5.0%. In January 2014, Mr.Eun Ho Cheong, KEPCO’s representative on Denison’s board resigned and was replaced by Mr. Tae hwan Kim.

As at March 31, 2014, KEPCO holds 58,284,000 shares of Denison representing a share interest of approximately 12.0%.

Denison also holds a 60% interest in Waterbury Lake Uranium Corporation (“WLUC”) and Waterbury Lake Uranium Limited Partnership (“WLULP”). The other 40% interest in these entities is held by a consortium of investors (“KWULP”) of which KEPCO is the primary holder. When a spending program is approved by the participants, each participant is required to fund these entities based upon its respective ownership interest. Spending program approval requires 70% of the voting interest.

In January 2014, Denison agreed to allow KWULP to defer its funding obligations to WLUC and WLULP until September 30, 2015 in exchange for allowing Denison to carry out spending programs without obtaining the approval of 70% of the voting interest. As at March 31, 2014, KWULP has a funding obligation to WLUC and WLULP of CAD$802,000. Denison has recorded its proportionate share of this amount of $435,000 (CAD$481,000) as a component of trade and other receivables.

22. INCOME TAXES

For the three months ended March 31, 2014, Denison has recognized deferred tax recoveries of $1,681,000. The deferred tax recovery includes the recognition of previously unrecognized Canadian tax assets of $3,588,000 offset by deferred tax expense of $3,275,000 relating to the February 2014 renunciation of the tax benefits associated with the Company’s CAD$14,950,000 flow-through share issue in May 2013.

 

23. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

IFRS requires disclosures about the inputs to fair value measurements, including their classification within a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to fair value measurement. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are:

 

    Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

 

    Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly; and

 

    Level 3 – Inputs that are not based on observable market data.

The fair value of financial instruments which trade in active markets (such as available-for-sale securities) is based on quoted market prices at the balance sheet date. The quoted market price used to value financial assets held by the Company is the current bid price.

Except as otherwise disclosed, the fair values of cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, restricted cash and cash equivalents and debt obligations approximate their carrying values as a result of the short-term nature of the instruments, or the variable interest rate associated with the instruments, or the fixed interest rate of the instruments being similar to market rates.

The following table illustrates the classification of the Company’s financial assets within the fair value hierarchy as at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013:

 

               March 31      December 31,

24. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

General Legal Matters

The Company is involved, from time to time, in various legal actions and claims in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the aggregate amount of any potential liability is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position or results.

Third Party Indemnities

The Company remains a guarantor under a sales contract included in the sale of the U.S. Mining Division to EFR. The sales contract requires deliveries of 200,000 pounds of U3O8 per year from 2013 to 2017 at a selling price of 95% of the long-term U3O8 price at the time of delivery. Should EFR not be able to deliver for any reason other than “force majeure” as defined under the contract, the Company may be liable to the customer for incremental costs incurred to replace the contracted quantities if the unit price of the replacement quantity is greater than the contracted unit price selling amount. EFR has agreed to indemnify the Company for any future liabilities it may incur related to this guarantee.

The Company has agreed to indemnify EFR against any future liabilities it may incur in connection with ongoing litigation between Denison Mines (USA) Corp (“DUSA”) (a company acquired by EFR as part of the sale of the U.S. Mining Division) and a contractor in respect of a construction project at the White Mesa mill. In the event that the matter is decided in DUSA’s favour, the Company is entitled to any proceeds that are received or recovered by EFR pursuant to its indemnity. Both parties agreed to resolve the dispute via binding arbitration and arbitration hearings for this matter were held in November 2013. In January 2014 an arbitration order was issued in DUSA’s and Denison’s favour. The contractor has filed a motion to vacate the arbitration award. Denison has filed a response in opposition as the Company believes the contractor’s motion is without merit. The amount of damages which may be ultimately recoverable by the Company as a result of this ruling are not known at this time.

 

25. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Acquisition of International Enexco Limited

On April 14, 2014, Denison announced the signing of an agreement to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares, options and warrants of International Enexco Limited (“IEC”) by way of a plan of arrangement (the “Arrangement”). IEC’s principal uranium assets include a 30% interest in the Mann Lake exploration project and a 20% interest in the Bachman Lake Joint Venture, both located in Saskatchewan, Canada. IEC also owns a subsidiary indirectly holding 100% of IEC’s Contact Copper project and its other US properties (“Spinco”). Denison currently owns 3,600,000 shares and 1,800,000 share purchase warrants of IEC. Denison expects to complete the Arrangement before June 30, 2014.

Under the terms of the Arrangement, Denison will acquire all of the issued and outstanding IEC shares on the basis of 0.26 of a Denison share for each IEC share. Any outstanding warrants and options of IEC as of the completion of the Arrangement will be exchanged for options and warrants of Denison adjusted by the exchange ratio of 0.26. The Denison options received as a result of this exchange will expire 90 days after the completion of the Arrangement while the new Denison warrants will expire in accordance with the expiry dates of the existing IEC warrants.

As part of the Arrangement, IEC’s shareholders will also receive a pro rata distribution of Spinco shares on a one-for-one basis and one-half of a warrant to acquire an additional Spinco share, exercisable for 6 months, at a price of CAD$5.00 for each whole share to be acquired. Each holder of IEC options and warrants will also receive replacement options and warrants, as the case may be, from Spinco with the same terms and conditions as the IEC options and warrants being replaced.

The value of the Denison shares to be issued under the Arrangement is estimated to be $14,999,000. The estimate is based on approximately 39,245,000 outstanding shares of IEC, not currently held by Denison, being exchanged at the above noted ratio, and a fair market value of a Denison common share of $1.47 as per Denison’s closing share price on March 31, 2014. At March 31, 2014, Denison has capitalized $92,000 of transaction costs, related to the Arrangement, on the statement of financial position.
