MONTREAL, Nov. 16, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Dynacor Gold Mines Inc.

This production level has been maintained since.Considering its solid financial situation and the gradual resumption of its activities, the Corporation pursued its dividend policy and declared in September, a 0.015$ CA per share dividend which was paid in October.

It is therefore possible that this measure could not be comparable with a similar measure of another company. (2)Cash-flow per share is a non-IFRS financial performance measure with no standard definition under IFRS. It is therefore possible that this measure could not be comparable with a similar measure of another corporation. This measure is calculated on p.14 of this MD&A. See the “Non-IFRS Measures” section 15 of this MD&A. The Corporation uses this non-IFRS measure which can also be helpful to investors as it provides a result which can be compared with the Corporation market share price. (3)EBITDA: “Earnings before interest, taxes and depreciation” is a non-IFRS financial performance measure with no standard definition under IFRS. It is therefore possible that this measure could not be comparable with a similar measure of another corporation. The Corporation uses this non-IFRS measure as an indicator of the cash generated by the operations and allows investor to compare the profitability of the Corporation with others by canceling effects of different assets bases, effects due to different tax structures as well as the effects of different capital structures.

The $9.6 million decrease is explained by the decreases in ounces sold (-$15.3 million) due to lower grades of ore processed, partially offset by higher selling prices ($5.7 million).Our Q3-2020 operating margin beneficiated from the increase in average gold market price in July and August before a slight decrease in September.Importantly we achieved a cash gross operating margin of $304 per ounce in Q3-2020 which is 34% higher than in Q3-2019 and the highest dollar cash gross operating margin per ounce since 2014.This significant increase is due to the rising gold market price over the period and the overall higher gold price compared to 2019.Reconciliation of non-IFRS measures(in $'000)Three-month periods ended September 30, Nine-month periods ended September 30, 20202019 20202019 Reconciliation of net income and comprehensive income to EBITDA (1) Net income and comprehensive income1,2492,300 2,9494,237 Income taxes7741,180 1,9662,349 Financial expenses (income)31(9) 8056 Depreciation633638 1,8721,899 EBITDA (1)2,6874,109 6,8678,541 CASH FLOW FROM OPERATING, INVESTING AND FINANCING ACTIVITIES AND LIQUIDITYOperating activitiesDuring Q3-2020, the cash flow from operations, before changes in working capital items, amounted to $2.3 million ($5.5 million for the nine-month period ending September 30, 2020), compared to $0.0 million in the previous quarter (Q2-2020) and $3.0 million in Q3-2019 ($6.5 million for the nine-month period ending September 30, 2019). The quarter to quarter increase of $2.3 million is explained by the gradual improvement of operations since its restart. The decrease of $0.7 million compared to Q3-2019 is primarily explained by the decrease in gold production due to lower ore grade, partially compensated by favorable gold market prices.During Q3-2020, net cash from operating activities amounted to (-$3.3 million) ($14.7 million for the nine-month period ending September 30, 2020) compared to (-$0.2 million) in Q3-2019 ($1.6 million for the nine-month period ending September 30, 2019).Changes in working capital items amounted to (-$5.6 million) and are mainly attributable to the variance in accounts receivable ($9.3 million for the nine-month period ending September 30, 2020 and are attributable to the variance in inventories). In 2019, these changes amounted to (-$3.2 million) and (-$4.9 million) respectively.Investing activitiesDuring Q3-2020 and the nine-month period ending September 30, 2020, investments amounted to $0,3 million and mainly comprised new vehicles and facilities at the plant in relation with the new health and safety protocol consequence of the COVID-19 crisis.Financing activitiesIn 2020, three quarterly dividends of CA$0.015 per share were disbursed for a quarterly consideration of $0.4 million (CA$0.6 million) (nine month cumulative of $1.3 million (CA$ 1.7 million).
