GoviEx is a mineral resource company focused on the exploration and development of its uranium properties located in Africa. GoviEx maintains a head office located in Canada and is a public company listed on the TSX Venture Exchange. At December 31, 2019, Denison holds an approximate 15.39% interest in GoviEx based on publicly available information (December 31, 2018: 16.21% and December 31, 2017: 18.72%) and has one director appointed to the GoviEx board of directors. Through the voting power of its share ownership interest, its large warrant holdings and its seat on the board of directors, Denison had the ability to demonstrate significant influence over GoviEx and used the equity method to account for this investment up to September 30, 2019. On October 1, 2019 (the deconsolidation date), Denison discontinued use of the equity method based on a determination that Denison’s influence over GoviEx was no longer demonstrable as significant - due to the expiry of its warrant holdings and an increased ownership interest in GoviEx’s main subsidiary by the Government of Niger during GoviEx’s third quarter of 2019. On the deconsolidation date, Denison classified its equity investment in GoviEx as FVTPL. As a result, Denison recognized a gain of $5,267,000 which represents the excess of the fair value of the investment on that date ($10,423,000) as compared to the investment’s carrying value under the equity method ($5,156,000). The following table is a summary of the consolidated financial information of GoviEx on a 100% basis, up to September 30, 2019, taking into account adjustments made by Denison for equity accounting purposes for fair value adjustments and differences in accounting policy. Prior to the deconsolidation date, Denison recorded its equity investment entries in GoviEx one quarter in arrears (due to the information not yet being publicly available), adjusted for any material publicly disclosed share issuance transactions that occurred up to the quarter end date on which Denison is reporting. A reconciliation of GoviEx’s summarized information to Denison’s investment carrying value, for the period when equity accounting was used, is also included.
