1.

NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Newmarket Gold Inc. (formerly Crocodile Gold Corp.) (individually, or collectively with its subsidiaries, as applicable, “Newmarket Gold”, “Crocodile Gold” or the "Company") is a gold mining and exploration company with three producing mines in Australia: the Fosterville and Stawell Gold Mines in the State of Victoria and the Cosmo Gold Mine in the Northern Territory. The Company also has a portfolio of development opportunities on its significant land package, including the Big Hill Project and the Maud Creek Gold Project.

Newmarket Gold is incorporated in Canada under the legislation of the Province of Ontario. Newmarket Gold’s common shares are listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”). The Company’s head office is 200 Burrard Street, Suite 1680, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada V6C 3L6 and registered address is 2100 Scotia Plaza, 40 King Street West, Toronto, Ontario, Canada M5H 3C2.

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries were prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) applicable to the preparation of interim financial statements, including International Accounting Standard (“IAS”) 34, Interim Financial Reporting. Since the condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not include all disclosure required by IFRS for annual financial statements, they should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015.

The preparation of financial statements requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise judgment in applying the Company’s accounting policies. The significant accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions in the preparation of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements are consistent with those applied and disclosed in Note 3 of the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2015.

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements were approved by the Company’s Board of Directors on November 2, 2016.

2. BUSINESS ARRANGEMENTS
   
(a) Business arrangement with Kirkland Lake Gold Inc. (“Kirkland Lake Gold”)

On September 29, 2016, the Company announced the completion of a definitive agreement (the “Arrangement Agreement”) to merge Newmarket Gold and Kirkland Lake Gold. Kirkland Lake Gold is a Canadian focused, intermediate gold producer with assets in the historic Kirkland Lake gold camp, and east of the Timmins gold camp along the Porcupine-Destor Fault Zone, both in northeastern Ontario. Kirkland Lake Gold is publicly traded in Canada on the TSX under the ticker symbol KLG.

The proposed business combination will be effected by way of a Plan of Arrangement under the Canada Business Corporations Act. At closing, all Kirkland Lake Gold common shares will be exchanged at a ratio of 2.1053 Newmarket Gold common shares per each Kirkland Lake Gold common share. Newmarket Gold shareholders will continue to hold their existing common shares. The combined entity will be renamed Kirkland Lake Gold and is expected to continue trading on the TSX. Concurrently with closing the transaction, the combined entity will undertake a 0.475 for 1 share consolidation subject to approval of the Newmarket Gold shareholders. As a result of the transaction it is expected that existing Kirkland Lake Gold and Newmarket Gold shareholders will own approximately 57% and 43% respectively, of the combined entity on a fully diluted in-the-money basis. As a result of the change of control, all of the unvested performance share units and stock options of the Compay, as outlined in Note 13, will automatically vest as of the effective date of closing of this Arrangement Agreement.

The Arrangement Agreement includes customary provisions including non-solicitation provisions, a right to match any superior proposal, a C$55 million termination fee payable to Newmarket Gold under certain circumstances and C$42.5 million termination fee payable to Kirkland Lake Gold under certain circumstances.

For Kirkland Lake Gold, the transaction will require approval by 66 2/3 percent of the votes cast by its shareholders as well as the approval of a simple majority of disinterested shareholders voting at a special shareholders meeting. The transaction will require the approval of a simple majority of the shareholders of Newmarket Gold as well as the approval of 66 2/3 percent of the votes cast by Newmarket Gold shareholders to effect the name change and share consolidation. In addition to shareholder and court approvals, the Transaction is subject to applicable regulatory approvals including TSX approval and satisfaction of certain other customary closing conditions customary in transactions of this nature.

2. BUSINESS ARRANGEMENTS
   
(b) Business arrangement with Newmarket Gold Inc.

On July 10, 2015, Crocodile Gold Corp. completed a Plan of Arrangement (“the Arrangement”) with Newmarket Gold Inc. (“Newmarket”) resulting in an amalgamation of the two companies. Pursuant to the Arrangement and effective upon closing, the amalgamated company continued under the name Newmarket Gold Inc. Under the terms of the Arrangement, each Newmarket shareholder received 0.2 Newmarket Gold common shares for each Newmarket common share. Each Crocodile Gold shareholder had the option to elect to receive consideration per Crocodile Gold common share of (i) 0.2456 Newmarket Gold common shares, or (ii) C$0.37 per share in cash, subject to a maximum aggregate cash consideration of C$20 million. The cash consideration was funded from a private placement of subscription receipts for gross proceeds of C$25 million completed by Newmarket as a condition to the Arrangement. The remaining proceeds were available for working capital purposes. As part of the financing, 992,000 broker warrants were issued entitling the holder to acquire one Newmarket Gold common share at an exercise price of C$1.25 with an expiration date of January 10, 2017.

Upon closing of the Arrangement, the Crocodile Gold share purchase warrants, options, and phantom share units became exercisable for 0.2456 Newmarket Gold common shares, reflecting the number of Newmarket Gold common shares a holder would have received if they were the holder of that number of Crocodile Gold common shares at the time of the Arrangement. In addition, the Company assumed the outstanding stock options and warrants of Newmarket, which were exercisable for 0.2 Newmarket Gold common shares and having a total fair value of $683 as determined using the Black-Scholes pricing model on the closing date of the Arrangement.

Transaction costs of $16,653 (of which $13,397 were non-cash costs) associated with the Arrangement were expensed in the condensed interim consolidated statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2015.

Upon closing of the Arrangement, the Company’s convertible unsecured debentures (“Debentures”) (Note 11) were convertible into Newmarket Gold common shares with each C$1 thousand principal being convertible into approximately 982.4 Newmarket Gold common shares, being 4,000 Crocodile Gold common shares multiplied by the exchange ratio of 0.2456. Each Debenture was convertible, at the holder’s option, into Newmarket Gold common shares at any time prior to maturity at a conversion price of C$1.02.

All issued and outstanding shares, warrants, options, phantom share units and per share amounts have been retrospectively applied for all periods presented in these condensed interim consolidated financial statements to reflect the completion of the Arrangement. For further details on this transaction and accounting thereof, refer to Note 2 of the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2015.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements were prepared using the same accounting policies and methods as those used in the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015, except for the adoption of the following standard amended by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) that was effective and adopted as of January 1, 2016:

 

IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements (“IAS 1”) was amended in December 2014 in order to clarify, among other things, that information should not be obscured by aggregating or by providing immaterial information, that materiality consideration appl y to all parts of the financial statements, and that even when a standard requires a specific disclosure, materiality considerations do apply. The adoption of this policy did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

MINE PROPERTIES - continued

The Company also completed the sale of certain non-core mineral leases in the Northern Territory to PNX Metals Limited (“PNX”), an exploration company with a number of projects in the Northern Territory, for consideration of 1 million shares of PNX, having an approximate fair value of A$20 thousand, and a 2% net smelter return royalty over any gold and silver production from the leases.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, the Company executed a sale agreement with respect to the divestment of its non-core mining lease at Point Leamington in Newfoundland, Canada with Callinex Mines Inc. (“Callinex”). Under the terms of the agreement, Callinex paid the Company C$115 thousand on closing of the transaction (received) with an additional C$400 thousand in either cash or shares to be paid within two years. The payment in either cash or shares is made at the election of Callinex. Any shares issued are based on a fixed price per share of C$0.462. The Company will also retain a 1% net smelter return royalty on any production from the Point Leamington Project, which can be purchased by Callinex at any time for C$1 million. The Company has written down the carrying value of the Point Leamington property and has recognized an impairment charge of $167 in the condensed interim consolidated statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2016.

For the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company identified the significant production challenges experienced at the Cosmo Gold Mine during 2015 and the lower production profile expected in 2016 as indicators of a potential impairment of the carrying value of the Cosmo Gold Mine for the year ended December 31, 2015. Consequently, the Company performed an assessment to determine the recoverable amount of the mine operation for a potential impairment by comparing the carrying value of the Cosmo Gold Mine, the lowest level of assets and liabilities for which there are independent cash flows, to the discounted cash flows expected from the use and eventual disposition of those assets and liabilities. The recoverable amount was determined to be the fair value less costs to sell (“FVLCS”) and management‘s estimate of the FVLCS is classified as level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. At December 31, 2015, the discounted cash flows over the life of mine for Cosmo was below the carrying value of the long-lived assets of the mine and as a result an impairment of $24,073 was recorded against mine properties and $1,424 recorded against property, plant, and equipment (Note 9), resulting in a total impairment charged to the statement of operations of $25,497.

On January 14, 2015, the Company completed an agreement with AuRico Gold Inc. to terminate a net free cash flow sharing arrangement between the two parties in exchange for a one-time payment of $16,744 and the granting of a 2% net smelter return royalty over the Fosterville Gold Mine commencing on that date, and a 1% net smelter return royalty over Stawell Gold Mine commencing January 1, 2016. As a result of the termination agreement, the estimated fair value of the royalties granted was recorded against the carrying value of the mine properties (totaling $12,558). The key assumptions used in determining the fair value of the royalties granted were future gold price, discount rates, and estimated production from the Fosterville and Stawell Gold Mines.

At that time, after discounting the liability to its estimated fair value and deducting the transaction costs, the liability and equity portion of the convertible debentures were recorded at C$27.2 million and C$4.3 million respectively. The liability portion was being accreted to its face value using the effective interest rate method at 13.67% .

The Debentures were redeemable by the Company in whole or in part, provided that the volume weighted average trading price of the common shares on the Toronto Stock Exchange (the "TSX") for the 20 consecutive trading days ending on the fifth trading day preceding the day prior to the date upon which the notice of redemption is given is at least 150% of the conversion price. On February 16, 2016, the Company provided notice to Debenture holders that on March 30, 2016 it would redeem, in full, all of the then outstanding Debentures by issuing common shares in the Company. Prior to that date, Debenture holders converted C$34.47 million Debentures into 33,863,328 common shares of the Company. On March 30, 2016, the Company redeemed the remaining outstanding C$21,000 Debentures through the issuance of 10,287 common shares, in accordance with the terms of the Debentures. All unpaid accrued interest up to the date of conversion or redemption, was paid in cash.

As a result of the full conversion and redemption of the Debentures, the carrying value of the Debentures of $23,218 was transferred to issued capital. The Company also transferred the previously recorded equity portion of the convertible debenture of $4,250 to issued capital. In addition, $673 of deferred tax impact related to the non-accreted portion was recorded in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, accretion of $695 was recorded as finance costs in the condensed interim consolidated statement of operations (nine months ended September 30, 2015 - $2,431).

Non-current provisions $  30,591   $  28,219  

(a)

Decommissioning, rehabilitation and similar liabilities

The Company provides for the estimated future cost of rehabilitating mine sites and related production facilities on a discounted basis on the development of mines or installation of those facilities. The rehabilitation provision represents the present value of estimated future rehabilitation costs, which are expected to be incurred up to 2032. The estimated undiscounted cash flows used to estimate the liability are $39,426. These provisions are based on the Company’s internal estimates, with consideration to closure plans and bonding requirements established with relevant regulatory bodies. Assumptions, including an inflation rate of 2.5% and discount rates of 1.52% and 1.60%, have been made which management believes are a reasonable basis upon which to estimate the future liability. These estimates are reviewed regularly to take into account any material changes to the assumptions. However, actual rehabilitation costs will ultimately depend upon future market prices for the necessary decommissioning works required, which will reflect market conditions at the relevant time. Furthermore, the timing of rehabilitation is likely to depend on when the mines cease to produce at economically viable rates. This, in turn, will depend upon future gold prices and costs of production, which are inherently uncertain.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, no amount was included as a recovery in care and maintenance in the condensed interim consolidated statement of operations from the decrease in provisions recognized on the rehabilitation of non-core assets (nine months ended September 30, 2015 – $1,572).

A summary of the Company’s changes to decommissioning, rehabilitation, and similar liabilities for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and year ended December 31, 2015 is presented below:

    September 30, 2016     December 31, 2015

Non-current portion of rehabilitation provision $  28,793   $  26,229  

(a)

Long service leave

Long service leave is an Australian employee entitlement which accrues based on an employee’s length of service to a company. The provision is estimated based on the total current service of the Company’s employees and future expected service and earnings. As at September 30, 2016, the total accrued long service leave was $8,229, of which $6,431 was classified as a current liability in the condensed interim consolidated statement of financial position ($6,927 and $4,937 as at December 31, 2015, respectively).

(c) Stock option plan and share unit plan

In conjunction with the completion of the Arrangement, shareholders of both predecessor entities (Crocodile Gold and Newmarket) approved new incentive plans for the amalgamated company, Newmarket Gold. The new incentive plans supersede all existing executive-based compensation plans, however, awards outstanding prior to the date of closing, being July 10, 2015, continue to be governed by and subject to the terms of the incentive plans of each predecessor entity. The new Stock Option Plan and Share Unit Plan are consistent with current TSX policies and are summarized below. On completion of the Arrangement all previously granted options prior to July 10, 2015 became fully vested pursuant to the terms of the Arrangement.

The Stock Option Plan (“SOP”) and Share Unit Plan (“SUP”) provides for the issuance of options or units respectively to employees, directors, or officers of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, consultants, and management employees. The aggregate number of Newmarket Gold shares available at all times for issuance under the SOP and SUP or any other security based compensation arrangement (pre-existing or otherwise) shall not exceed 20,000,000 Newmarket Gold shares. Any option or unit which has been cancelled or terminated prior to exercise in accordance with the terms of the SOP or SUP will again be available for grant under the SOP or SUP. The Board of Directors has the power to determine terms of any options and units granted under the Company’s incentive plans, including setting exercise prices, vesting terms and expiry dates.

(e) Share unit plan continued

The original performance share units granted during the year ended 2015, had an expiry of three years from the date of grant and vest based on the 20-day volume weighted average price on the TSX of the Company’s shares: (i) as to one-third when the price of the Company’s shares is C$2.25 or greater; (ii) as to one-third when the price of the Company’s shares is C$3.00 or greater; and (iii) as to one-third when the price of the Company’s shares is C$3.75 or greater. On the performance share units vesting by reaching the thresholds noted, each vested performance share unit will be converted to one common share of the Company. These performance share units had a grant date fair value of $2,133. The fair value of the performance share units was calculated using a Monte-Carlo simulation model which provides a valuation based on a number of future probabilities and scenarios based on the vesting terms noted above. The performance share units outstanding have expiry dates between July and December 2018.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, 4,152,000 of the Company’s outstanding performance share units vested, as the Company’s 20-day volume weighted average price on the TSX of the Company’s shares surpassed the C$2.25, C$3.00, and C$3.75 vesting thresholds. As a result of these units vesting, the fair value attributed to these performance share units being $2,067 was transferred from equity reserves to shares to be issued. In connection with the vested performance share units, 1,433,667 of these vested units were exercised and converted to common shares of the Company, resulting in a transfer of $714 from shares to be issued to common shares. In accordance with the terms of the Share Unit Plan, the holders of the remaining performance share units (totaling 2,718,333 units), have elected to defer the receipt of their common shares until a later date, exercisable at any time prior to their expiry date.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, 834,000 performance share units were granted to various directors and employees of the Company pursuant to the terms of the Company’s Share Unit Plan and under the following vesting terms:

 

On April 4, 2016, the Company granted 140,000 performance share units to a newly appointed director. These performance share units expire three years from the date of grant and vest based on a 20-day volume weighted average price on the TSX of the common shares at the following amounts and thresholds: (i) one-third will vest when the price of the Common Shares is C$3.00 or greater; and (ii) two-thirds will vest when the price of the Common Shares is C$3.75 or greater. These performance share units had a total grant date fair value of $171. The fair value of these performance share units was calculated using a Monte-Carlo simulation model which provides a valuation based on a number of future probabilities and scenarios based on the vesting terms noted above. The fair value is being amortized over the term of the vesting period.

     
 

On June 4, 2016, the Company granted a total of 350,000 performance share units to its directors. These performance share units will vest on the date that is 12 months from the date of grant, being June 4, 2017. These performance share units had a total grant date fair value of $1,003. The fair value of these performance share units was calculated using the share price on the date immediately prior to the date of grant. The fair value is being amortized over the term of the vesting period.

     
 

On June 4, 2016, the Company granted a total of 205,000 performance share units to its employees. These performance share units will vest on the date that is 36 months from the date of grant, being June 4, 2019. These performance share units had a total grant date fair value of $588. The fair value of these performance share units was calculated using the share price on the date immediately prior to the date of grant. The fair value is being amortized over the term of the vesting period.

     
 

On July 26, 2016, the Company granted a total of 25,000 performance share units to an employee. These performance share units will vest on the date that is 36 months from the date of grant, being July 26, 2019. These performance share units had a total grant date fair value of $71. The fair value of these performance share units was calculated using the share price on the date immediately prior to the date of grant. The fair value is being amortized over the term of the vesting period.

     
 

On August 3, 2016, the Company granted a total of 114,000 performance share units to a director. These performance share units vest over the course of 3 years, with 1/3 of the total vesting on August 3, 2017, 1/3 of the total vesting on August 3, 2018, and the final 1/3 vesting on August 3, 2019. These performance share units had a total grant date fair value of $394.

(f) Phantom share units

The Company has granted phantom share unit (“PSU”) to certain Australian employees, each of which entitles the holder to a cash payment on exercise based on the market value of the Company’s stock on the date of exercise less the strike price of the PSU.

Royalty obligations

As at September 30, 2016, the Company has the following obligations with respect to royalties:

  2% net smelter return royalty from the Fosterville Gold Mine (held by AuRico Metals Inc.).
  1% net smelter return royalty from Stawell Gold Mine (effective January 1, 2016) (held by AuRico Metals Inc.).
  A$2 per ounce royalty payable on gold produced from the Stawell Gold Mine mining license.
  1% ad valorem royalty on any future gold production above 250,000 ounces derived from the Maud Creek Gold Project.
  A$4 vendor royalty per ounce of gold produced from the Pine Creek tenements.

The Company also has royalties payable to various vendors of tenements located outside the currently anticipated mining areas.

With respect to the Maud Creek Gold Project, the Company also has an obligation of a payment of A$2 million that would be due upon a decision to proceed with development of the Maud Creek Gold Project. In addition to the production royalty described above, a further 1% gross royalty and A$5 per ounce royalty are payable on any future gold production from certain tenements from the Maud Creek Gold Project that are located south of the main Maud Creek gold deposit.

The Fosterville Gold Mine is subject to a license fee which enables it to use the patented BIOX process to treat refractory ore from the underground mine. The fee is paid at a rate of A$1.33 per ounce of gold produced and treated through the BIOX Plant and terminates when 1,500,000 ounces of gold in aggregate has been treated in the plant. As at September 30, 2016, approximately 1,088,022 ounces of gold had been treated in the plant.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

As at December 31, 2015, the Company’s financial instruments also included convertible debentures, which were fully converted and/or redeemed during the three month ended March 31, 2016.
