DENISON MINES CORP.

Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements for the six months ended June 30, 2015

(Unaudited - Expressed in U.S. dollars except for shares and per share amounts)

 

1.

NATURE OF OPERATIONS

Denison Mines Corp. and its subsidiary companies and joint arrangements (collectively, the “Company”) are engaged in uranium mining and related activities, including acquisition, exploration and development of uranium bearing properties, extraction, processing and selling of uranium.

The Company has a 22.5% interest in the McClean Lake Joint Venture (“MLJV”) (which includes the McClean Lake mill) and a 25.17% interest in the Midwest Joint Venture (“MWJV”), both of which are located in the Athabasca Basin of Saskatchewan, Canada. The McClean Lake mill provides toll milling services to the Cigar Lake Joint Venture (“CLJV”) under the terms of a toll milling agreement between the parties. In addition, the Company has varying ownership interests in a number of development and exploration projects located in Canada, Mali, Namibia, Zambia and Mongolia.

The Company provides mine decommissioning and decommissioned site monitoring services to third parties through its Denison Environmental Services (“DES”) division and is also the manager of Uranium Participation Corporation (“UPC”), a publicly-listed investment holding company formed to invest substantially all of its assets in uranium oxide concentrates (“U3O8”) and uranium hexafluoride (“UF6”). The Company has no ownership interest in UPC but receives fees for management services and commissions from the purchase and sale of U3O8 and UF6 by UPC.

Denison Mines Corp. (“DMC”) is incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario) and domiciled in Canada. The address of its registered head office is 595 Bay Street, Suite 402, Toronto, Ontario, Canada, M5G 2C2.

 

2.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) applicable to the preparation of interim financial statements, including IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting. The condensed interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2014.

The Company’s presentation currency is U.S. dollars.

These financial statements were approved by the board of directors for issue on August 5, 2015.

 

3.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The significant accounting policies followed in these condensed interim consolidated financial statements are consistent with those applied in the Company’s audited annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2014.

Accounting Standards Issued But Not Yet Applied

The Company has not yet adopted the following new accounting pronouncements which are effective for fiscal periods of the Company beginning on or after January 1, 2016:

International Financial Reporting Standard 9, Financial Instruments (“IFRS 9”)

In July 2014, the IASB published the final version of IFRS 9 Financial Instruments (“IFRS 9”), which brings together the classification, measurement, impairment and hedge accounting phases of the IASB’s project to replace IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. IFRS 9 replaces the multiple classifications for financial assets in IAS 39 with a single principle based approach for determining the classification of financial assets based on how an entity manages its financial instruments in the context of its business model and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial assets. The new standard also requires a single impairment method to be used, replacing the multiple impairment methods in IAS 39. The final version of IFRS 9 is effective for periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018; however, it is available for early adoption.

 

- 5 -


The Company has not evaluated the impact of adopting this standard.

International Financial Reporting Standard 15, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“IFRS 15”)

IFRS 15 deals with revenue recognition and establishes principles for reporting useful information to users of financial statements about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from an entity’s contracts with customers. Revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of a good or service. The standard replaces IAS 18 “Revenue” and IAS 11“Construction Contracts” and related interpretations. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018 and earlier application is permitted.

The Company has not evaluated the impact of adopting this standard.

Plant and Equipment - Mining

The Company has a 22.5% interest in the McClean Lake mill located in the Athabasca Basin of Saskatchewan, Canada. A toll milling agreement has been signed with the participants in the CLJV that provides for the processing of the future output of the Cigar Lake mine at the McClean Lake mill, for which the owners of the McClean Lake mill receive a toll milling fee and other benefits. In determining the amortization rate for the McClean Lake mill, the amount to be amortized has been adjusted to include Denison’s expected share of mill feed related to the CLJV toll milling contract.

Plant and Equipment - Services and Other

The environmental services division of the Company provides mine decommissioning and decommissioned site monitoring services for third parties.

Mineral Properties

The Company has various interests in development and exploration projects located in Canada, Mali, Namibia, Zambia and Mongolia which are held directly or through option or various contractual agreements.

New Issues

In May 2015, the Company completed a private placement of 12,000,000 flow-through common shares at a price of CAD$1.25 per share for gross proceeds of $12,069,000 (CAD$15,000,000). The income tax benefits of this issue will be renounced to subscribers no later than December 31, 2015. The related flow-through share premium liability is included as a component of other liabilities on the balance sheet at June 30, 2015.

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 June 30, 2015, the Company estimates that it has incurred CAD$10,671,000 of its obligation to spend CAD$14,997,000 on eligible exploration expenditures as a result of the issuance of flow-through shares in August 2014. The Company renounced the income tax benefits of this issue to its subscribers in February 2015. In conjunction with the renunciation, the flow-through share premium liability has been reversed and recognized as part of the deferred tax recovery (see notes 13 and 21).

As at June 30, 2015, the Company has not incurred any expenditures towards its obligation to spend CAD$15,000,000 on eligible exploration expenditures as a result of the issuance of flow-through shares in May 2015.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

IFRS requires disclosures about the inputs to fair value measurements, including their classification within a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to fair value measurement. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are:

 

   

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

 

   

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly; and

 

   

Level 3 – Inputs that are not based on observable market data.

The fair value of financial instruments which trade in active markets (such as equity instruments) is based on quoted market prices at the balance sheet date. The quoted market price used to value financial assets held by the Company is the current closing price.

Except as otherwise disclosed, the fair values of cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, restricted cash and cash equivalents and debt obligations approximate their carrying values as a result of the short-term nature of the instruments, or the variable interest rate associated with the instruments, or the fixed interest rate of the instruments being similar to market rates.

The following table illustrates the classification of the Company’s financial assets within the fair value hierarchy as at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014:

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Transaction with Fission Uranium Corp and Denison Share Consolidation

On July 27, 2015, Denison entered into a definitive arrangement agreement to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares, options and warrants of FCU by way of a court approved plan of arrangement (the “Fission Arrangement”). FCU’s principal uranium asset is its 100% owned Patterson Lake South project located in Saskatchewan, Canada. Completion of the Fission Arrangement is subject to Denison and FCU shareholder approval, applicable regulatory approvals and the satisfaction of other customary conditions. Denison expects to complete the Fission Arrangement in October 2015.

Under the terms of the Fission Arrangement, Denison will acquire all of the issued and outstanding FCU shares on the basis of 1.26 of a Denison share plus cash of CAD$0.0001 for each FCU share. Any outstanding warrants and options of FCU as of the completion of the Fission Arrangement will be exchanged for options and warrants of Denison adjusted by the exchange ratio of 1.26.

The value of the Denison shares to be issued under the Fission Arrangement is estimated to be $364,995,000. The estimate is based on approximately 386,238,000 outstanding shares of FCU being exchanged at the above noted ratio, and a fair market value of a Denison common share of $0.75 as per Denison’s closing share price on June 30, 2015. Each $0.01 increase (decrease) in Denison’s share price increases (decreases) the value of the Denison shares to be issued by approximately $4,867,000.

At June 30, 2015, Denison has incurred $58,000 of transaction costs related to the Fission Arrangement.

Immediately following the closing of the Fission Arrangement, Denison shareholders will also be asked to approve a 2-for-1 share consolidation and a corporate name change to “Denison Energy Corp”.

Denison agrees to sale of Mongolian interests

On July 29, 2015, Denison entered into a definitive share purchase agreement with UI, whereby UI will acquire all of Denison’s interest in mining assets and operations located in Mongolia in exchange for cash consideration of $20 million (the “GSJV Sale”). Under the agreement, Denison will receive an initial payment of $250,000 on closing (expected to be on or before September 8, 2015) and a deferred payment of $19,750,000 by November 30, 2015. The deferred payment is guaranteed in the event that the mining licences for the Hairhan, Haraat, Gurvan Saihan, and Ulziit projects (the “Mining Licences”) are granted to the GSJV on or before November 30, 2015. In the event that the Mining Licenses are not granted, and UI does not make the deferred payment of $19,750,000, the shares subject to the agreement will be transferred back to Denison. UI will be responsible for the operating expenses incurred in Mongolia from closing (expected to be on or before September 8, 2015).
