Osisko Development Reports Fourth Quarter and Year-End 2024 Results - ForexTV

(All dollar amounts are expressed in Canadian dollars, unless stated otherwise) MONTREAL, March 28, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Osisko Development Corp. (NYSE: ODV, TSXV: ODV) ("Osisko Development" or the "Company") reports its financial and operating results for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2024 ("Q4 2024"). Q4 2024 HIGHLIGHTS Operating, Financial and Corporate Updates: As of December 31, 2024, the Company had approximately $106.7 million in cash and cash equivalents. Approximately $36.0 million (US$25.0 million) was outstanding as of the end of Q4 2024 under the delayed draw term loan with National Bank of Canada, which matures on October 31, 2025. The Company completed a non-brokered private placement of units pursuant to which it issued an aggregate of 19,163,410 units at a price of US$1.80 per unit for gross proceeds of approximately US$34.5 million (the "2024 Non-Brokered Private Placement"). The 2024 Non-Brokered Private Placement was completed in two tranches comprised of the issuance of (i) 13,426,589 units at a price of US$1.80 per unit for gross proceeds of approximately US$24.2 million, which tranche closed on October 1, 2024, and (ii) 5,736,821 units at a price of US$1.80 per unit for gross proceeds of approximately US$10.3 million, which tranche closed on October 11, 2024. Each unit was comprised of one Common Share and one Common Share purchase warrant of the Company entitling the holder thereof to purchase one Common Share at a price of US$3.00 on or prior to October 1, 2029. On November 12, 2024, the Company completed a brokered private placement pursuant to which it issued an aggregate of 31,946,366 units at a price of US$1.80 per unit for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately US$57.5 million, including the exercise in full of the option granted to the agents (the "2024 Brokered Private Placement"). Each unit was comprised of one Common Share and one Common Share purchase warrant of the Company entitling the holder thereof to purchase one Common Share at a price of US$3.00 on or prior to October 1, 2029. In connection with the 2024 Brokered Private Placement, the agents were paid a cash commission equal to 4.5% of the aggregate gross proceeds. On December 5, 2024, Mr. Stephen Quin was appointed as independent director to the Company's board of directors and, in connection thereof, was subsequently granted 80,000 deferred share units of the Company on December 19, 2024. On December 12, 2024, Ms. Marina Katusa resigned from the Company's board of directors. Cariboo Gold Project – British Columbia, Canada (100%-owned) Fully Permitted Status. On November 20, 2024, the Company was granted permits pursuant to the Mines Act (British Columbia) for its Cariboo Gold Project. Subsequently, on December 12, 2024, the Company was granted permits pursuant to the Environmental Management Act (British Columbia) for the Cariboo Gold Project. Together with the Mines Act (British Columbia) permits, these approvals mark the successful completion of the permitting process for key approvals, solidifying the Cariboo Gold Project's shovel-ready status. The Mines Act (British Columbia) permits grant the Company the ability to proceed with the construction, operation and reclamation activities on each of the sites outlined within the scope of the Project. The Environmental Management Act (British Columbia) permits pertain to any project-related discharges to the environment, including water and air, and the framework and limitations thereof, within the areas outside of the immediate mine site boundaries.Work is ongoing with the Ministry of Water, Land and Resource Stewardship and the Ministry of Forests on obtaining all necessary approvals for the construction of the transmission line.On November 7, 2024, the Company announced that, while it had yet to reach an agreement with the Xatśūll First Nation, it remained committed to ongoing engagement and consultation. Project Financing. The Company is actively engaged in ongoing discussions on various funding options, including a comprehensive project construction financing package, for the development of the Cariboo Gold Project. Pre-Construction Activities. During Q1 2024, under an existing provincial permit, the Company commenced an underground development drift from the existing Cow Portal into the Cariboo Gold Project's Lowhee Zone to extract a bulk sample of up to 10,000 tonnes of mineralized material. 100% of the underground development has been successfully completed, totalling approximately 1,172 m, to access the target area.The extraction, sampling, assaying, and analysis of mineralized material from the target zone is currently ongoing. Approximately 7,400 tonnes of material has been extracted to date. Lengthy timeframes for receipt of assays and analysis of the results have extended completion of the bulk sampling program into Q2 2025. Once all information is available, a reconciliation process to compare the bulk sample results with the predicted tonnes and grade will be undertaken. Optimized Feasibility Study. The Company is in advanced stages of completing an optimized feasibility study ("OFS") for the Cariboo Gold Project. The OFS will incorporate opportunities to enhance and streamline mine development and the process flowsheet, supporting an accelerated development timeline to reach 4,900 tonnes per day throughput earlier than previously contemplated. It will also reflect updated metal price and foreign exchange assumptions. Additionally, the OFS will integrate updated operating and capital cost estimates, while considering ways to reduce and mitigate any potential capital and operating cost pressures. The OFS base case will remain aligned with the existing permitting framework.    Figure 1: Cariboo Gold Project – Permitting Timeline Summary Tintic Project – Utah, U.S.A. (100%-owned) Phase I Regional Drilling. In 2024, the Company completed two surface diamond drill holes totalling approximately 2,920 m (9,581 ft) at the Big Hill target area testing for copper-gold-molybdenum porphyry mineralization potential. Based on the geological information from these drill holes, the Company identified several high-priority targets for a next phase of the porphyry exploration program. Phase II Regional Drilling. As part of the ongoing Phase II regional drilling program initiated in December 2024, the Company is advancing the completion of two drill holes on the Big Hill West and Zuma porphyry targets, expected to be completed in the coming months. San Antonio Gold Project – Sonora State, Mexico (100%-owned) The San Antonio Gold Project remains in care and maintenance. The Company is awaiting further guidance from the Mexican government regarding the permitting process and the status of open-pit mining in the country. The Company continues to conduct a strategic review of the project and engaged a financial advisor in connection thereof. The strategic review includes, among others, exploring the potential for a financial or strategic partner in the asset or a full or partial sale of the asset.

Readers are cautioned that mineral resources are not mineral reserves and that the economic viability of resources that are not mineral reserves has not been demonstrated. The mineral resource estimate disclosed in this news release may be materially affected by geology, environmental, permitting, legal, title, socio-political, marketing or other relevant issues. The mineral resource estimate is classified in accordance with the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum's "CIM Definition Standards on Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves" incorporated by reference into NI 43-101. Under NI 43-101, estimates of inferred mineral resources may not form the basis of feasibility or pre-feasibility studies or economic studies except for preliminary economic assessments. Readers are cautioned not to assume that further work on the stated resources will lead to mineral reserves that can be mined economically. Cautionary Statement Regarding Financing Risks The Company's development and exploration activities are subject to financing risks. At the present time, the Company has exploration and development assets which may generate periodic revenues through test mining, but has no mines in the commercial production stage that generate positive cash flows. The Company cautions that test mining at its operations could be suspended at any time. The Company's ability to explore for and discover potential economic projects, and then to bring them into production, is highly dependent upon its ability to raise equity and debt capital in the financial markets. Any projects that the Company develops will require significant capital expenditures. To obtain such funds, the Company may sell additional securities including, but not limited to, the Company's shares or some form of convertible security, the effect of which may result in a substantial dilution of the equity interests of the Company's Shareholders. Alternatively, the Company may also sell a part of its interest in an asset in order to raise capital. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to raise the funds required to continue its exploration programs and finance the development of any potentially economic deposit that is identified on acceptable terms or at all. The failure to obtain the necessary financing(s) could have a material adverse effect on the Company's growth strategy, results of operations, financial condition and project scheduling. Cautionary Statement Regarding Test Mining Without Feasibility Study The Company cautions that its prior decision to commence small-scale underground mining activities and batch vat leaching at the Trixie test mine was made without the benefit of a feasibility study, or reported mineral resources or mineral reserves, demonstrating economic and technical viability, and, as a result there may be increased uncertainty of achieving any particular level of recovery of material or the cost of such recovery. The Company cautions that historically, such projects have a much higher risk of economic and technical failure. Small scale test-mining at Trixie was suspended in December 2022, resumed in the second quarter of 2023, and suspended once again in December 2023. If and when small-scale test-mining recommences at Trixie, there is no guarantee that production will continue as anticipated or at all or that anticipated production costs will be achieved. The failure to continue production may have a material adverse impact on the Company's ability to generate revenue and cash flow to fund operations. Failure to achieve the anticipated production costs may have a material adverse impact on the Company's cash flow and potential profitability. In continuing operations at Trixie after closing, the Company has not based its decision to continue such operations on a feasibility study, or reported mineral resources or mineral reserves demonstrating economic and technical viability. Cautionary Statement to U.S. Investors The Company is subject to the reporting requirements of the applicable Canadian securities laws and as a result reports information regarding mineral properties, mineralization and estimates of mineral reserves and mineral resources, including the information in its technical reports, financial statements, MD&A and this news release, in accordance with Canadian reporting requirements, which are governed by NI 43-101. As such, such information concerning mineral properties, mineralization and estimates of mineral reserves and mineral resources, including the information in its technical reports, financial statements, MD&A and this news release, is not comparable to similar information made public by U.S. companies subject to the reporting and disclosure requirements of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC").

Caledonia Mining Corporation Plc: Results for the year ended December 31, 2024 - ForexTV

Restated previous financial statements and non-reliance to the extent set out in this announcement Details of investor and analyst presentation Record Profit, Stable Production and Exploration Success ST HELIER, Jersey, March 31, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Caledonia Mining Corporation Plc ("Caledonia" or "the Company") announces its operating and financial results for the year ended December 31, 2024 (the "Year"). Caledonia also announces the restatement of previous financial statements due to an error that was identified in the accounting interpretation related to the calculation of deferred tax liabilities of Blanket Mine (“Blanket”). The restatement has no effect on historic reported cash or cashflow statements and has no effect on historic income tax calculations or submissions to the tax authorities. Further information on the financial and operating results for the Year and the quarter ended December 31, 2024 (the "Quarter" or "Q4"), as well as the restatement, can be found in the Management Discussion and Analysis ("MD&A"), and the Consolidated Audited Financial Statements (“Financial Statements”), which are available on the Company's website and are being filed on SEDAR+ and EDGAR. Financial Highlights Gross revenue of $183.0 million, up from $146.3 million in 2023, reflecting higher gold prices.Record gross profit of $77.0 million, up 86% from 2023 driven by a combination of higher gold prices and lower production costs at the Bilboes oxide mine (2023: $41.5 million).Net attributable profit of $17.9 million (2023: net loss of $7.9 million).Substantially stronger operating cash flow of $42.0 million compared to $14.8 million in 2023.Basic IFRS earnings per share (“EPS”) of 91.2 cents (2023: loss per share of 43.6 cents).Adjusted EPS1 of 125.2 cents (2023: loss per share of 10.3 cents).Net cash and cash equivalents improved to negative $8.7 million (31 December 2023: negative $11.0 million).As set out in news releases issued on March 24 and 28, 2025, Caledonia has declared a quarterly dividend of 14 cents per share, payable on April 17, 2025. Operating Highlights Blanket performed well with gold production of 76,656 ounces (2023: 75,416 ounces), within guidance.Bilboes oxide mine gold production of 1,645 ounces (2023: 3,050 ounces), reflecting the decision to place the mine on care and maintenance from September 30, 2023.Consolidated average realised gold price per ounce2 of $2,347 (2023: $1,910).On-mine cost per ounce2 of $1,073 (2023: $1,097).All-in sustaining cost (AISC)2 per ounce of $1,506 (2023: $1,499).In May 2024, the Company announced a 63% increase in measured and indicated mineral resources and a 26% increase in inferred mineral resources at Blanket.Encouraging results announced in November 2024 from the initial exploration programme at Motapa with more exploration work planned at the site in 2025. ______________________________1 Adjusted EPS excludes net foreign exchange movements (including the deferred tax effect and the non-controlling interest thereon) and deferred tax. A reconciliation of IFRS EPS to Adjusted EPS is set out in section 8 of the MD&A2 Non-IFRS measures such as “On-mine cost per ounce”, “All-in sustaining cost per ounce”, “average realised gold price per ounce” and “adjusted EPS” are used throughout this announcement. Refer to section 3.2 of the MD&A for a discussion of non-IFRS measures. Update on Bilboes Feasibility Study As announced on March 27, 2025, Caledonia, with the support of DRA Projects (Pty) Ltd and other technical consultants, has been making good progress on the Feasibility Study (“FS”) for the Bilboes project. While the FS was initially targeted for completion in Q1 2025, the Company has decided to extend the timeline to fully explore several material optimisation opportunities that have the potential to enhance project economics and reduce upfront capital requirements. Key areas of optimisation currently under review include: Engaging with the authorities to explore the potential sale of concentrate, which could significantly reduce upfront capital expenditures by deferring the capital expenditure on a BIOX processing circuit, at least in the first few years of production;Evaluating the potential relocation of the Tailings Storage Facility to a more efficient site, including on Caledonia’s Motapa property adjacent to Bilboes, where the topography could lead to lower initial construction costs; andIncorporating near-term opportunities at Motapa into the FS, following encouraging exploration results in 2024 and the additional exploration and development work planned at Motapa this year. In addition, Caledonia continues to assess near-term revenue opportunities across its portfolio. In particular, high-grade mineralisation recently identified at Blanket could make a meaningful contribution to the initial capital requirements for Bilboes, providing further flexibility around funding. The board remains fully committed to maximising shareholder value: this means ensuring that Bilboes is optimised both technically and financially, while continuing discussions with funding partners and relevant authorities in Zimbabwe. The optimisation work is advancing well, and the Company will provide a further update on the expected timing of the FS in due course. Board and Management Changes On February 14, 2025, Mr. Stefan Buys and Ms. Lesley Goldwasser joined the board as independent non-executive directors.As previously announced on February 19, 2025 and March 21, 2025, Mr. Chester Goodburn steps down as CFO today and is succeeded by Mr. Ross Jerrard.Mr. Johan Holtzhausen is not putting himself forward for reappointment as a director at the next annual general meeting in May 2025. Ms. Tariro Gadzikwa will take over as chair of the Audit Committee provided she is reappointed as a director at the annual general meeting. Strategy and Outlook Capital investment for 2025 is budgeted at $41.0 million, with $34.1 million allocated to Blanket and $6.3 million for the Bilboes and Motapa projects.Strong start to 2025 with 11,782 ounces produced at the end of February.Caledonia’s strategic focus remains on: Maintaining stable production at Blanket while investing in modernising operations to improve efficiency;Continuing to optimise Bilboes to maximise net present value per share;Continued exploration activities at Blanket and Motapa; andBecoming a multi-asset, Zimbabwe-focused gold producer. Mark Learmonth, Chief Executive Officer, commented: “2024 was a year of significant progress for Caledonia, both financially and operationally. We delivered solid gold production at Blanket, achieving 76,656 ounces, towards the upper end of our guidance. Our financial performance benefited from a higher gold price environment, which resulted in a significant increase in gross profit and operating cashflows. “Bilboes remains a highly attractive project, and we are confident that we will find the optimal development method to maximise returns for shareholders. We continue to refine the feasibility study, exploring ways to enhance project economics and reduce upfront capital requirements. We are confident that by taking a disciplined approach we can develop the project in a way that creates long term value while maintaining financial prudence. “Our strategic vision remains to become a multi-asset, Zimbabwe-focused gold producer that delivers sustainable value for shareholders and respective stakeholders. I would like to thank our team and shareholders for your continued support, and I look forward to another year of progress and growth.” Restated previous financial statements In preparation of the Financial Statements, an error was identified in the accounting interpretation related to the calculation of deferred tax liabilities at Blanket. The restatement has no effect on historic reported cash or cashflow statements and has no effect on historic income tax calculations or submissions to the tax authorities. The restatement of financial statements due to this error is summarised below and is qualified in its entirety by the more comprehensive disclosure relating to the restatement in Caledonia’s MD&A. In October 2018, the local Zimbabwe currency known as RTGS$ was introduced in Zimbabwe at 1:1 to the USD. The RTGS$ was deemed the only legal tender in Zimbabwe, and all liabilities held previously were to be denominated in RTGS$. In 2019, Practice Note 26 (as described in note 3.1.5 of the Financial Statements) required all income tax returns to be calculated in RTGS$ for transactions occurring prior to introducing the multi-currency regime in 2023. Blanket’s deferred tax liabilities were incorrectly calculated in RTGS$ and accounted for as a monetary item where RTGS$ deferred tax temporary differences were translated to the USD functional currency. Gains related to the devaluation of the deferred tax liabilities were realised in profit or loss. Transactions from 2019 to 2022 affected the deferred tax liability calculation and continued to be denominated in RTGS$ in accordance with the legislated tax regime after the multi-currency regime was introduced. The accounting for the deferred tax liabilities in RTGS$ with the translation to USD remained consistent in all previous consolidated financial statements, yet the carrying value of the deferred tax liabilities should have been denominated in USD rather than RTGS$. The error, stemming from January 1, 2019, was corrected from the earliest period presented in the Financial Statements, as presented in the table below.

Going forward, management plans to reconsider critical accounting interpretations every 3 years. The remediation efforts to-date have included engaging and consulting with the external accounting advisors, considering authoritative and non-authoritative guidance available in the accounting literature, and conducting a detailed analysis of deferred tax accounting rules. The management team, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, have reaffirmed and re-emphasized the importance of internal control, control consciousness and a strong control environment. Should these remedial measures be insufficient to address the material weakness described above, or additional deficiencies arise in the future, material misstatements in our interim or annual financial statements may occur in the future. Material weakness and non-reliance on previous financial statements In the preparation of the Financial Statements, management identified the prior period error and determined that the restatement of financial information presented was necessary. As a result, management has determined that the control over accounting for deferred tax liabilities did not operate effectively and constitutes a material weakness for the annual and interim filings for the period January 1, 2019 to December 31, 2024. Based on the foregoing, each of the previously filed annual and interim financial statements for the annual and interim periods between January 1, 2019 and September 30, 2024 should not be relied upon in respect of the items set out in the tables above. Commentary Financial Performance In 2024, Caledonia achieved a significant financial turnaround, reporting a net attributable profit of $17.9 million, an improvement from the net loss of $7.9 million in 2023. This positive shift was driven by a 23% increase in the average realised gold price, rising to $2,347 per ounce from $1,910 per ounce in 2023 and cost improvements. Gross profit for the year reached $77.0 million, up from $41.5 million in the previous year, reflecting both the higher gold prices and effective cost management. Operating cash flow also saw an increase to $42.0 million compared to $14.8 million in 2023. This improvement in cash generation has strengthened the company’s financial position, with net cash and cash equivalents improving to negative $8.7 million from negative $11.0 million in the prior year. Outlook for 2025 Looking ahead, Blanket’s production guidance for 2025 is between 73,500 and 77,500 ounces of gold. On-mine cost per ounce is expected to be between $1,050 and $1,150, reflecting anticipated increases in labour and operating expenses. All-in sustaining cost per ounce is expected to be between $1,690 to $1,790 due to a high level of sustaining capital expenditure as Caledonia continues to invest in Blanket’s future. Capital investment for 2025 is budgeted at $41.0 million, with $34.1 million allocated to Blanket and $6.3 million designated for the Bilboes and Motapa projects. These investments aim to enhance operational efficiency and support the Company’s growth objectives.

Examples of forward-looking information in this news release include: production guidance, our plans and timing regarding further exploration and drilling and development, future costs, the development of Bilboes and Motapa, our strategic vision, the potential sale of concentrate, the potential relocation of the Tailings Storage Facility, the high-grade mineralisation at Blanket, the publication of the Bilboes feasibility study, the timing and ability to remediate the deficiency in control over accounting for deferred tax liabilities and the potential of being unable to prevent misstatements from occurring in the future. This forward-looking information is based, in part, on assumptions and factors that may change or prove to be incorrect, thus causing actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from those expressed or implied by forward-looking information. Such factors and assumptions include, but are not limited to: failure to establish estimated resources and reserves, the grade and recovery of ore which is mined varying from estimates, success of future exploration and drilling programs, reliability of drilling, sampling and assay data, assumptions regarding the representativeness of mineralization being inaccurate, success of planned metallurgical test-work, capital and operating costs varying significantly from estimates, delays in obtaining or failures to obtain required governmental, environmental or other project approvals, inflation, changes in exchange rates, fluctuations in commodity prices, delays in the development of projects and other factors. Security holders, potential security holders and other prospective investors should be aware that these statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those suggested by the forward-looking statements. Such factors include, but are not limited to: risks relating to estimates of mineral reserves and mineral resources proving to be inaccurate, fluctuations in gold price, risks and hazards associated with the business of mineral exploration, development and mining, risks relating to the credit worthiness or financial condition of suppliers, refiners and other parties with whom the Company does business; inadequate insurance, or inability to obtain insurance, to cover these risks and hazards, employee relations; relationships with and claims by local communities and indigenous populations; political risk; risks related to natural disasters, terrorism, civil unrest, public health concerns (including health epidemics or outbreaks of communicable diseases such as the coronavirus (COVID-19)); availability and increasing costs associated with mining inputs and labour; the speculative nature of mineral exploration and development, including the risks of obtaining or maintaining necessary licenses and permits, diminishing quantities or grades of mineral reserves as mining occurs; global financial condition, the actual results of current exploration activities, changes to conclusions of economic evaluations, and changes in project parameters to deal with unanticipated economic or other factors, risks of increased capital and operating costs, environmental, safety or regulatory risks, expropriation, the Company's title to properties including ownership thereof, increased competition in the mining industry for properties, equipment, qualified personnel and their costs, risks relating to the uncertainty of timing of events including targeted production rate increase and currency fluctuations, risks related to potentially being unable to remedy the deficiency in control over accounting for deferred tax liabilities and risks related to potentially being unable to prevent financial statements misstatements in the future. Security holders, potential security holders and other prospective investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking information. By its nature, forward-looking information involves numerous assumptions, inherent risks and uncertainties, both general and specific, that contribute to the possibility that the predictions, forecasts, projections and various future events will not occur.
