Sebastien de Montessus, President and CEO, commented: “2021 was another successful year for Endeavour in which we delivered against all our objectives. Our focus was on executing our capital allocation priorities to fully implement our shareholder returns programme, while supporting our operations, continuing to strengthen our balance sheet and investing in exploration.

Operationally, after the rapid and successful integration of the Teranga and SEMAFO assets, we were able to achieve a record year with production in excess of 1.5 million ounces, ensuring we have now met or exceeded guidance for the ninth consecutive year.

This strong operational performance has generated significant cash flow which has allowed us to deliver robust shareholder returns while improving our balance sheet position. Since commencing our shareholder returns programme, marked by the first dividend payment in early 2021, we have already returned $338 million by way of dividends and buybacks. On the balance sheet front, we have re-established a strong net cash position after absorbing circa $330 million of net debt following the Teranga acquisition.

As a result, we enter 2022 with considerable momentum and we expect to deliver another strong year. We will continue to drive value for shareholders through prudent balance sheet management, cash flow generation and shareholder returns while we remain focussed on building long-term value through our key growth projects and exploration."

Q4-2021 AND FY-2021 SUMMARY

• Continued strong safety record for the Group, with a low Lost Time Injury Frequency Rate (“LTIFR”) of 0.20 for FY-2021.
• FY-2021 production amounted to 1,536koz, beating the top end of the guided 1,365-1,495koz range, due to out-performance at the Houndé, Ity, Sabodala-Massawa and Mana mines. FY-2021 All-in sustaining costs ("AISC") amounted to $880/oz, achieving the guided $850-900/oz range in spite of inflationary pressures.

²This is a non-GAAP measure. Refer to the non-GAAP measure section of the latest available MD&A.

• FY-2021 consolidated production from continuing operations amounted to a record 1,524koz, an increase of 721koz, or 90% over FY-2020 due to the addition of Sabodala-Massawa and Wahgnion in the first quarter of the year, full year production from Boungou and Mana (which were acquired in 2020), and stronger performances at Houndé and Ity. Over the same period, consolidated AISC from continuing operations amounted to approximately $880/oz, an increase of $27/oz or 3% over FY-2020 primarily due to increases at Boungou, Karma and Mana, which were partially offset by the addition of the low cost Sabodala-Massawa mine and stronger production from the lower cost Houndé and Ity mines.
• Q4-2021 consolidated production from continuing operations amounted to 398koz, an increase of 16koz or 4% over Q3-2021, as a result of stronger performance across Houndé, Mana and Wahgnion. AISC from continuing operations remained stable at $900/oz as higher costs at Boungou, Karma and Mana were partially offset by lower costs at the flagship Sabodala-Massawa, Ity and Houndé assets.
• The Group’s realised gold price from continuing operations was $1,787/oz and $1,773/oz for Q4-2021 and FY-2021 respectively, inclusive of the Sabodala-Massawa and Karma gold streams.

SHAREHOLDER RETURNS PROGRAMME

• Endeavour has implemented a shareholder returns programme that is composed of a minimum progressive dividend of $125 million, $150 million and $175 million for FY-2021, FY-2022, and FY-2023 respectively, that may be supplemented with additional dividends and buybacks, providing the prevailing gold price remains above $1,500/oz and that Endeavour’s leverage remains below 0.5x Net Debt / adjusted EBITDA.
• Endeavour is pleased to announce its H2-2021 interim dividend of $70 million or $0.28 per share based on its current issued share capital, totaling $140 million or $0.57 per share for FY-2021, which represents $15 million more than the minimum dividend commitment, reiterating Endeavour's strong focus on paying supplemental shareholder returns.
• The ex-dividend date for the interim dividend will be 10 February 2022 and the record date will be 11 February 2022. The dividend will be paid on or about 16 March 2022 (the “Payment Date”). Shareholders of shares traded on the Toronto Stock Exchange will receive dividends in Canadian Dollars (“CAD”), but can elect to receive United States Dollars (“USD”). Shareholders of shares traded on the London Stock Exchange will receive dividends in USD, but can elect to receive Pounds Sterling (“GBP”). Certificated shareholders will receive dividends in USD but can elect to receive dividends in GBP or CAD. Currency elections must be made by shareholders prior to 17:00 GMT on 25 February 2022. Dividends will be paid in the default or elected currency on the Payment Date, at the prevailing USD:CAD and USD:GBP exchange rates on 1 March 2022. This dividend does not qualify as an “eligible dividend” for Canadian income tax purposes. The tax consequences of the dividend will be dependent on the particular circumstances of a shareholder.
• Shareholder returns are being supplemented through the Company’s share buyback programme. A total of $138 million, or 6.0 million shares have been repurchased from the start of the buyback programme on 9 April 2021 until year-end 2021, of which $44 million or 1.9 million shares were repurchased in Q4-2021.
• As shown in the table below, since the launch of the Company’s shareholder returns programme in early 2021, a cumulative $338 million (including the upcoming H2-2021 dividend) has been delivered to shareholders in the form of dividends and share buybacks.

FINANCIAL POSITION & LIQUIDITY

• A net cash position of $76 million was achieved at year end, despite absorbing approximately $332 million of net debt from Teranga in Q1-2021 and paying $130 million in dividends and $138 million in share buybacks during the year. During Q4-2021, net debt improved by $146 million compared to the prior quarter, despite completing $44 million of share buybacks during the quarter.

¹ All Q4-2021 and FY-2021 numbers are preliminary and reflect our expected results as of the date of this press release.

• During Q4-2021, the Company completed an offering of $500 million in fixed rate senior notes with an interest rate of 5% due in 2026. The proceeds were used to repay its existing loan facilities. The Company also entered into a new $500 million revolving credit facility which remained undrawn on 31 December 2021.
• At 31 December 2021, Endeavour’s available sources of financing and liquidity remained strong at approximately $1.4 billion, which included approximately $906 million from its current cash position and $500 million in undrawn funds from its revolving credit facility.
• The Company's significant cash position and other sources of liquidity provide the financial flexibility should it consider to settle the outstanding convertible bond in cash.
• Given the Company's significant cash flow generation capacity and liquidity available, it has headroom to continue its attractive shareholder return programme while being able to fund its growth. In order to protect Endeavour against gold price volatility during its upcoming construction phase, the Company entered into a revenue protection programme for a portion of its production for 2022 and 2023. This is structured as a low premium collar with a put price of $1,750 per ounce and a call price of $2,100 per ounce for a total of approximately 600,000 ounces, or 75,000 ounces of production per quarter, from Q1-2022 until Q4-2023. The premium for the collar of $10 million was paid in Q4-2021. In addition, the Company entered into a forward sales contract for approximately 520,000 ounces of production in 2022 and 120,000 ounces of production in 2023 at average gold price of $1,831 per ounce and $1,828 per ounce respectively. 2022 forward sales are weighted towards Q1-2022 with 44% of forward sales, and the remainder equally weighted through the rest of the year.

2022 OUTLOOK

• Following the strong 2021 performance which resulted in beating the guidance of 1,365-1,495koz at an AISC of $850-900/oz, 2022 production is expected to amount to 1,400-1,500koz at an AISC of $890-940/oz. Guidance is in line with the outlook provided during the June 2021 investor day despite global inflationary pressures which were partially offset by cost, procurement, and operational optimisation programmes, as well as realised benefits from larger production at the lower cost flagship mines. More details on individual mine guidance have been provided in the below sections.

¹All Q4-2021 and FY-2021 numbers are preliminary and reflect Endeavour's expected results as at the date of this press release.

Q4-2021 vs Q3-2021 Insights

• Production decreased due to a lower mined and processed grade while throughput and recovery rate remained fairly flat.
  • Total ore tonnes mined decreased due to a focus on the planned pre-stripping activities at the East Pit in order to open up access to ore in 2022.
  • Tonnes milled remained at high level due to enhancements made to the SAG mill, pebble crusher and the vertical tower mill earlier in the year.
  • Processed grade decreased in line with the mining sequence as a result of mining in low grade areas of the West Pit.
• AISC increased due to lower ounces sold which was offset by lower sustaining capital and lower operating costs.

FY-2021 Performance

• FY-2021 production of 174koz was slightly below the guided 180-200koz range as a result of lower processed grades. AISC of $800/oz was in line with the outlook provided in Q3-2021, which stated that AISC are expected to continue to trend above the guided $690 - 740/oz range as a result of higher fuel prices and increased security costs.
• FY-2021 production was significantly above FY-2020 due to the benefit of consolidating a full year of operations and the restart of mining at Boungou in Q4-2020. AISC of $800/oz was higher than FY-2020, as the prior year period benefitted from the processing of higher grade stockpiled ore after the re-start of mining operations.

2022 Outlook

• Boungou is expected to produce between 130-140koz in 2022 at an AISC of between $900-1,000/oz.
• Mining activities in H1-2022 will focus on waste stripping and ore extraction from the East pit in addition to waste stripping in the West pit. In H2-2022, stripping activities will continue in both pits, while ore will be sourced mainly from the West pit.
• Mill throughput is expected to remain broadly consistent with the 2021 performance while grades are expected to decline in line with the life of mine schedule.
• Sustaining capital expenditure is expected to decrease from approximately $18 million in 2021 to $15 million in 2022 mainly due to reduced stripping at the West pit in 2022.
• Non-sustaining capital expenditure is expected to decrease to approximately $19 million in 2022 compared to $23 million in 2021, with 2022 relating primarily to a significant cut back at the East pit.

¹All Q4-2021 and FY-2021 numbers are preliminary and reflect Endeavour's expected results as at the date of this press release.

Q4-2021 vs Q3-2021 Insights

• Production increased due to the higher recovery rates as well as the increased mill tonnage despite the lower grade milled.
  • Tonnes of ore mined significantly increased due to increased oxide ore mined in the Kari area, as ore mining commenced in the Kari West pit, which allowed for greater machine efficiency. In H2-2021, ore tonnes mined were significantly lower than tonnes milled as a greater focus was placed on waste extraction activities at Kari Pump, Vindaloo Main and Kari West, taking advantage of the flexibility provided by the available ore stockpiles.
  • Tonnes milled increased as the plant feed was made up of predominantly oxide ore from the Kari Pump and Kari West pits, supplemented by fresh materials from the Vindaloo deposit and stockpiles.
  • Average processed grades slightly decreased despite higher grades mined at Kari Pump mainly due to supplemental feed being sourced from lower grade stockpiles.
  • Recovery rates increased due to the higher proportion of oxide ore processed from Kari Pump and Kari West.
• AISC decreased primarily due to lower sustaining capital expenditure as well as lower unit processing cost on account of increased oxide material milled, which lowered grinding media costs and reagent consumption. This overall decrease was partially offset by higher mining costs associated with longer hauling cycle times from the Kari Pump and Kari West pits.

FY-2021 Performance

• Production for 2021 totalled 293koz, beating the guided 230-250koz range driven by mining efficiencies at the Kari area pits enabling access to greater volumes of high grade oxide ore. AISC amounted to approximately $845/oz, well below the guided $865-895/oz range due to the benefit of higher production.
• Production increased compared to the prior year due to higher throughput as a greater proportion of oxide ore from Kari Pump was milled. This was partially offset by slightly lower grades and recoveries. AISC of $845/oz remained broadly in line with the prior year.

2022 Outlook

• Following a record 2021 performance, Houndé is expected to produce between 260-275koz in 2022 at AISC of $875-925/oz.
• Mining activities in 2022 will focus on Vindaloo Main, Kari Pump and Kari West. In H1-2022, ore will primarily be mined from Kari Pump, supplemented by Vindaloo Main, while stripping is underway at Kari West. In H2-2022, ore will be mined from Kari Pump and Kari West, once stripping has been completed. Mill throughput and recoveries are expected to decline slightly in 2022 due to changes in the ore blend.
• Sustaining capital expenditure is expected to decrease from $49 million in 2021 to approximately $44 million in 2022, with 2022 expenditure relating mainly to waste extraction and fleet re-builds.
• Non-sustaining capital expenditure is expected to remain broadly consistent with the $17 million in 2021 at approximately $18 million in 2022. The 2022 expenditures are mainly related to stripping, compensation, resettlement and associated mine infrastructure in the Kari area.

Q4-2021 vs Q3-2021 Insights

• Production remained consistent with the prior quarter as higher mill throughput was offset by lower recovery rates, while grades processed remained flat.
  • Tonnes of ore mined increased due to lower strip ratios at the Daapleu, Walter and Colline Sud pits as well as increased mining at the Ity, Le Plaque pits and the Heap Dump.
  • Tonnes milled increased due to the processing of supplemental oxide ore through the surge bin, despite the milling of a higher proportion of the high grade fresh ore from the Daapleu pit.
  • Recovery rates decreased due to the lower recovery rates associated with the higher grade fresh ore from the Daapleu pit.
• AISC per ounce decreased due to a lower strip ratio, lower unit mining cost as a result of decreased drill and blast cost, and lower unit processing cost on account of increased power supply from the national grid.

FY-2021 Performance

• FY-2021 production totalled 272koz which was above the guided 230-250koz range driven by a combination of higher throughput and grade. AISC of $835/oz was in line with the guided of $800-850/oz range.
• Production increased significantly compared to 2020 as a result of an increase in throughput due to improvements in plant operating and maintenance strategies and continued use of the surge bin providing supplemental oxide ore. AISC increased compared to the prior year due to less ore stockpiling and increased sustaining capital that mainly related to waste stripping at the Ity, Bakatouo, Walter and Colline Sud pits.

2022 Outlook

• Ity is expected to produce between 255-270koz in 2022 at an AISC of between $850-900/oz.
• Ore will be mined from Le Plaque, Daapleu, Ity, Bakatouo, Walter, Colline Sud and supplemented by historical heap dumps Verse Ouest and Heap 2 during the year. In H1-2022 mining at the current phase of Daapleu will be completed, in H2-2022 increased contributions will come from Le Plaque with higher grade ore coming from the Walter pit.
• Ore tonnes processed are expected to remain fairly constant throughout the year, however grades are expected to decline in H2-2022 as feed material moves away from Daapleu. The decline will be partially offset by increased recoveries associated with increased ore sourced from Le Plaque. Average processed grade for the year is expected to be consistent with FY-2021.
• Sustaining capital is expected to amount to $20 million in 2022 compared to $24 million in 2021. The 2022 sustaining capital mainly relates to capitalised waste.
• Non-sustaining capital is expected to decrease from $35 million in 2021 to approximately $29 million in 2022. Non-sustaining capital in 2022 mainly relates to processing plant enhancements, land compensation and the stage 4 TSF raise.

¹All Q4-2021 and FY-2021 numbers are preliminary and reflect Endeavour's expected results as at the date of this press release.

Q4-2021 vs Q3-2021 Insights

• Production remained flat despite the improved average grade and recovery rates as the stacking rate slightly decreased and gold in circuit increased due to higher grade ore being stacked late in the quarter.
  • Total tonnes mined decreased slightly. Ore tonnes were mainly sourced from GG1 and the newly commissioned higher grade Rambo West pit.
  • The stacked grade increased slightly with the introduction of the newly commissioned higher grade ore from Rambo West Pit late in the quarter.
  • Gold recovery rate increased due to the benefit of ore from Rambo West Pit, which offset the GG1 ore and its associated lower recovery.
• AISC increased, mainly due to the drawdown of ore form stockpiles in Q4-2021, longer haul distances from the Rambo pit and higher sustaining capital related to capital spares purchases for the stacker system.

FY-2021 Performance

• FY-2021 production of 88koz was at the top end of the guided 80-90koz range, AISC of $1,195/oz was below the lower end of the guided $1,220-1,300/oz range due to lower than guided sustaining capital on account of lower waste cost capitalised and higher production.
• Production decreased in FY-2021 due to lower grades and recoveries from the higher proportion of transitional GG1 material stacked compared to the higher grade and associated recovery of the Kao North ore mined and stacked in FY-2020. AISC increased compared to FY-2020 due to the lower recoveries associated with GG1 ore and slightly higher unit mining and processing costs associated with the transitional ore from the GG1 pits.

2022 Outlook

• Karma is expected to produce between 85-100koz in 2022 at AISC of $1,200-1,250/oz.
• Mining activity is expected to focus on the GG1 and Rambo West pits in H1-2022 enabling a higher grade feed to be stacked and improved recoveries, before transitioning back to the Kao North pit in H2-2022.
• Sustaining capital expenditure is expected to be consistent with the $1 million spend in 2021 at approximately $1 million in 2022, comprised entirely of plant maintenance.
• Non-sustaining capital expenditure is expected to increase slightly, compared to the $5 million spend in 2021, to approximately $6 million in 2022, which mainly relates to the ongoing construction of new cells on the heap leach pad.

¹All Q4-2021 and FY-2021 numbers are preliminary and reflect Endeavour's expected results as at the date of this press release.

Q4-2021 vs Q3-2021 Insights

• Production increased due to higher processed grade and plant recovery rate, which was partially offset by a slight decrease in plant throughput.
  • Total open pit tonnes mined decreased due to reduced mining activity at the bottom section of Wona South Stage 2 pit which is nearing completion. This was partly offset by mining higher grade ore from the Wona South Stage 3.
  • Total underground tonnes mined decreased due to increased waste and development mining activities at the Siou underground in order to increase the mining in stopes which delivered better grades. Total underground development metres slightly increased due to the commencement of development at the Wona underground mine, where two new portals were established.
  • Tonnes milled decreased due to a planned plant shutdown for mill relining.
  • The average processed grade increased due to better grades mined at Wona South Stage 3 as well as Siou underground.
  • Recovery rates increased slightly due to oxide materials from the Wona South Stage 3 pit.
• AISC increased due to higher unit mining costs as a result of mining in deeper elevation of the Wona South stage 2 open pit, no more classification of open pit waste extraction as non-sustaining capital given the pit is nearing completion, and higher processing costs due to planned mill maintenance. This was partially offset by decreased sustaining capital expenditure due to less development at Siou underground.

FY-2021 Performance

• FY-2021 production totalled 205koz, significantly beating the guided 170-190koz range due to out-performance in mining of the Wona South open pit providing high grade feed to the processing plant and higher plant availability and capacity. This was partially offset by the lower grade. The AISC amounted to circa $1,025/oz achieving the guided $975-$1,050/oz range.
• FY-2021 production increased by 83koz over the prior year due to the benefit of consolidating a full year of operations, strong plant performance and increased underground tonnes mined while the AISC increased by $171/oz primarily due to higher underground mining costs due to the mining of ore at increased depth, which was partially offset by lower open pit mining costs.

2022 Outlook

• Following a strong out-performance in 2021, Mana is expected to produce between 170-190koz in 2022 at an AISC of $1,000-1,100/oz.
• Mining at Wona open pit is expected to conclude at the end of H1-2022, while in H2-2022 mill feed is expected to be sourced primarily from Siou underground whilst development progresses at Wona underground, where stope production will commence. Early mining activities at the Maoula satellite pit are expected to commence in late H2-2022.
• Mill throughout is expected to be lower in H2-2022 following the transition away from the Wona open pit. This is expected to be partially offset by supplemental feed from stockpiles and from Wona underground development in H2-2020 as well as slightly higher grades from Siou underground, while recovery rates are expected to remain strong.
• Sustaining capital expenditure is expected to decrease from $13 million in 2021 to approximately $7 million in 2022, with expenditure relating mainly to plant maintenance and equipment re-builds.
• Non-sustaining capital expenditure is expected to be consistent with 2021 at approximately $40 million in 2022, with expenditure relating mainly to the Wona underground development and associated infrastructure as well as a TSF wall raise.

¹All Q4-2021 and FY-2021 numbers are preliminary and reflect Endeavour's expected results as at the date of this press release.

Q4-2021 vs Q3-2021 Insights

• Production remained flat despite the increase in processed grade as gold in circuit increased while plant throughput and plant recovery remained consistent.
  • Total tonnes mined increased slightly due to the commissioning of additional mining fleet, while total tonnes of ore mined remained stable. Ore tonnes were mainly sourced from the Sofia North and Sofia Main pits, supplemented by ore from the Sabodala pit.
  • The average processed grade increased slightly due to the contribution of higher grade ore from the Sofia Main pit.
• AISC decreased due to a decrease in sustaining capital expenditures as additional heavy mobile fleet was purchased in the prior quarter.

FY-2021 Performance

• FY-2021 consolidated production, which comprises the period commencing on 10 February 2021, after the acquisition of Teranga, amounted to 345koz, beating the guided 310-330koz range, while AISC amounted to circa $645/oz, also beating the guided $690-740/oz range, due to the strong performance driven by higher throughput at higher grades.

Plant Expansion

• The Massawa deposit is being integrated into the Sabodala mine through a two-phased approach, as outlined in the 2020 pre-feasibility study (“PFS”). Phase 1 of the plant expansion, which was completed in Q4-2021, will facilitate processing of an increased proportion of high grade, free-milling Massawa ore through the existing Sabodala processing plant.
• Phase 1 of the plant expansion included the installation of a number of work packages, which include an additional electrowinning cell, a carbon regeneration kiln, an acid wash and elution circuit, a new leach tank, and a gravity circuit, were completed in Q4-2021.
• A total of $14 million was incurred for the Phase 1 plant expansion, which was completed below the budget of $20 million, the majority of which was incurred following the acquisition of Sabodala-Massawa on 10 February 2021.
• Phase 2 of the expansion will add an additional processing circuit designed to process the high grade refractory ore from the Massawa deposit. The resource update published on 17 January 2022 will be incorporated into the DFS, which is scheduled to be published in late Q1-2022.

2022 Outlook

• Sabodala-Massawa is expected to produce between 360-375koz in 2022 at an AISC of $675-725/oz.
• Ore will be primarily sourced from the Sofia North pit, with supplemental feed coming from the Sabodala pit in H1-2022 and from Massawa Central and Massawa North in H2-2022. Processed grades are expected to decline, particularly in H1-2022 due to lower grade supplemental feed, while mill throughput rates and recovery rates are expected to remain similar to 2021.
• As expected, sustaining capital expenditure is expected to increase from approximately $50 million in 2021 (only the consolidated portion) to $63 million in 2022, with costs in 2022 related mainly to capitalised waste, fleet re-builds and continued investment in new mining equipment, in addition to accounting for an increased production profile.
• Non-sustaining capital expenditure in 2022 is expected to remain flat at approximately $34 million, with 2022 capital expenditures related mainly to the ongoing Sabodala relocation construction cost plus infrastructure and establishment works for the Massawa pits.
• Growth capital expenditure is expected to be $3 million for the completion of the new leach tank at the Sabodala-Massawa plant and the overhead powerline to Massawa. Following the completion of the DFS for the Sabodala-Massawa Phase 2 expansion in Q1-2022, further detail on the growth capital spend for the project will be provided.

¹All Q4-2021 and FY-2021 numbers are preliminary and reflect Endeavour's expected results as at the date of this press release.

Q4-2021 vs Q3-2021 Insights

• Production increased due to increased plant throughput and higher processed grade while the plant recovery rate remained stable.
  • Total tonnes mined increased due to increased production rates following the end of the wet season and the upgraded contractor mining fleet allowing operations to run more efficiently. Ore tonnes were mainly sourced from Nogbele North and South pits, which were primarily oxide materials that were supplemented by mostly fresh materials from the Fourkoura pits.
  • Tonnes milled increased due to increased mill throughput attributable to the ore feed being dryer following the end of the wet season and a higher proportion of oxide ore being processed.
  • The average processed grade increased due to higher grades sourced from Nogbele and Fourkoura pits.
• AISC decreased due to lower sustaining capital as well as lower unit mining and processing costs due to higher tonnes mined and milled, and higher ounces sold.

FY-2021 Performance

• FY-2021 consolidated production, which comprises the period commencing on 10 February 2021 after the acquisition of Teranga, amounted to 147koz and achieved the mid-point of the guided 140-155koz range, while the AISC amount to circa $995/oz achieving near the top end of the guided $940-990/oz range.

2022 Outlook

• Wahgnion is expected to produce between 140-150koz in 2022 at an AISC of $1,050-1,150/oz.
• Ore will be primarily sourced from the Nogbele North and Fourkoura pits, with supplemental feed coming from the Nogbele South pits in H1-2022. In H2-2022, greater volumes of ore are expected to be sourced from the Nogbele North pits while ore sourced from Fourkoura pits is expected to remain steady throughout the year. Mill throughput rates are expected to decrease marginally in 2022 while process grades are expected to decline in line with the life of mine schedule.
• Sustaining capital expenditure is expected to increase from circa $12 million in 2021 (only the consolidated portion) to approximately $20 million in 2022, with costs in 2022 mainly related to waste extraction and equipment re-builds.
• Non-sustaining capital expenditure is expected to decrease from circa $28 million in 2021 (only the consolidated portion) to approximately $23 million in 2022, with 2022 costs related mainly to infrastructure required to expand site operations, including the Samavogo haul road, and community projects.
