Share Cancellations

In February 2019, 46,178 shares were cancelled in connection with the January 2013 acquisition of JNR Resources Inc (“JNR”). JNR shareholders were entitled to exchange their JNR shares for shares of Denison in accordance with the share exchange ratio established for the acquisition. In January 2019, this right expired and the un-exchanged shares for which shareholders had not elected to exercise their exchange rights were subsequently cancelled.

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 December 31, 2019, the Company has satisfied its obligation to spend $5,000,000 on eligible exploration expenditures by the end of fiscal 2019 as a result of the issuance of flow-through shares in November 2018. The Company renounced the income tax benefits of this issue in February 2019, with an effective date of renunciation to its subscribers of December 31, 2018. In conjunction with the renunciation, the flow-through share premium liability at December 31, 2018 was extinguished and recognized as part of the deferred tax recovery in 2019 (see note 17).

As at December 31, 2019, the Company estimates that it incurred $120,000 of expenditures towards its obligation to spend $4,715,000 on eligible exploration expenditures by the end of fiscal 2020 as a result of the issuance of flow-through shares in December 2019.
