VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Aug. 08, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Endeavour Silver Corp. (“Endeavour” or the “Company”) (NYSE: EXK; TSX: EDR) is pleased to announce its financial and operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. All dollar amounts are in US dollars (US$).
“While we have been successful at managing the inflation trend over the last two years, costs are now outpacing our mitigation efforts. The Mexican Peso has strengthened to a seven year high against the US dollar, which is impacting costs across our operations,” stated Dan Dickson, Chief Executive Officer. “Originally, our 2023 guidance had assumed a 20:1 Mexican Peso per US dollar exchange rate; however the current rate is just under 17:1; representing a 14% increase. Our bottom line has been impacted two-fold, through both inflation and foreign exchange. Cost control will continue to be a key focus for the operations group as cost pressures are expected to continue for the remainder of the year.”

Further details on these non-IFRS financial measures and ratios are provided at the end of this press release and in the MD&A accompanying the Company’s financial statements, which can be viewed on the Company’s website, on SEDAR at www.sedar.com and on EDGAR at www.sec.gov.
For the three months ended June 30, 2023, revenue, increased by 62% to $50.0 million (Q2 2022: $30.8 million).
Gross sales of $50.9 million in Q2 2023 represented a 61% increase over the $31.7 million in Q2 2022. Silver oz sold increased 116% due to both increased production and the impact of withholding of a significant amount of silver finished goods inventory during Q2, 2022. There was a 7% increase in the realized silver price resulting in a 131% increase in proceeds from silver sales. Gold oz sold increased 1% with a 6% increase in realized gold prices resulting in a 7% increase in proceeds from gold sales. During Q2, 2023 the Company sold 1,299,672 oz silver and 9,883 oz gold, for realized prices of $24.27 and $1,955 per oz, respectively, compared to sales of 602,894 oz silver and 9,792 oz gold, for realized prices of $22.72 and $1,840 per oz, respectively, in the same period of 2022. In Q2, 2023, London spot prices averaged $24.13 and $1,976, respectively
The Company increased its finished goods to 637,439 oz silver and slightly decreased its finished goods gold inventory to 1,519 oz gold at June 30, 2023 compared to 530,250 oz silver and 1,707 oz gold at December 31, 2022. The cost allocated to these finished goods was $13.8 million as at June 30, 2023, compared to $7.4 million at March 31, 2023. At June 30, 2023, the finished goods inventory fair market value was $17.6 million, compared to $14.7 million at March 31, 2023.
After cost of sales of $37.5 million (Q2 2022 - $26.3 million), an increase of 43%, mine operating earnings were $12.5 million (Q2 2022 - $4.5 million). The increase in the cost of sales compared to the prior period was driven by significantly higher silver ounces sold in the current period, a strengthened Mexican peso and higher labour, power and consumables costs as the Company, as well as the industry, has experienced significant inflationary pressures. Additionally, the Company incurred increased royalty costs during Q2, 2023 compared to the prior period,
The Company had operating earnings of $5.4 million (Q2 2022: operating loss of $1.3 million) after exploration and evaluation costs of $4.3 million (Q2 2022: $3.8 million), general and administrative costs of $2.4 million (Q2 2022: $1.3 million) and a write off of exploration properties of $0.4 million (Q2, 2022 - $0.5 million).
Earnings before income taxes was $4.2 million (Q2 2022: loss before taxes of $8.8 million) after finance costs of $0.4 million (Q2 2022: $0.3 million), a foreign exchange gain of $1.9 million (Q2 2022: loss of $0.3 million), and investment and other expense of $2.7 million (Q2 2022: $6.9 million). The investment and other expenses during Q2 2023 primarily resulted from an unrealized loss on marketable securities and warrants of $3.2 million (Q2 2022: $7.6 million).
The Company realized a net loss for the period of $1.1 million (Q2 2022: $11.9 million) after an income tax expense of $5.2 million (Q2 2022: $3.1 million). Current income tax expense increased to $4.4 million (Q2 2022 - $1.3 million) due to increased profitability impacting the income tax and special mining duty, while deferred income tax expense of $0.8 million is derived from changes in temporary timing differences between deductions for accounting versus deductions for tax (Q2 2022 – $1.8 million).
Direct operating costs(2) on a per tonne basis increased to $138.16, up 4% compared with Q2 2022 due to both a strengthening of the Mexican peso and higher operating costs at both Guanacevi and Bolanitos from inflationary pressure during 2022 and the first half of 2023. As the Mexican peso strengthens, the Company’s Mexican peso denominated costs are increased in US dollar terms. Guanacevi and Bolanitos have seen increased labour, power and consumables costs.
Consolidated cash costs per oz(2), net of by-product credits, increased to $13.52 primarily driven by an increase in direct operating costs, an increase in royalties and special mining duties, partially offset by an increase in by-product gold sales and increased silver production. AISC(2) decreased by 4% on a per oz basis compared to Q2 2022 due to the increase in cash costs and an increase in allocated corporate general and administrative expenses partially offset by increased silver production and slightly lower sustaining capital expenditures.
Management anticipates these macro trends will continue for the near term and therefore expects actual cost metrics to be higher than cost metrics previously provided in the Company’s 2023 guidance. Management anticipates costs to align to similar levels with H1 2023 actual cost metrics.

Forward-looking statements or information involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause the actual results, level of activity, production levels, performance or achievements of Endeavour and its operations to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such statements. Such factors include but are not limited to the completion of Societe Generale’s and ING Bank N.V.’s due diligence requirements in connection with the Terronera Project financing; the final terms of the financing and the Company’s ability to successfully drawdown funds thereunder; the ongoing effects of inflation and supply chain issues on Project economics; national and local governments, legislation, taxation, controls, regulations and political or economic developments in Canada and Mexico; financial risks due to precious metals prices; operating or technical difficulties in mineral exploration, development and mining activities; risks and hazards of mineral exploration, development and mining; the speculative nature of mineral exploration and development; risks in obtaining necessary licenses and permits; and challenges to the Company’s title to properties; as well as those factors described in the section “risk factors” contained in the Company’s most recent form 40F/Annual Information Form filed with the S.E.C. and Canadian securities regulatory authorities.
