TMAC Resources Inc. is pleased to report first quarter 2019 financial results. All amounts are in Canadian dollars unless otherwise indicated.
Jason Neal, President and Chief Executive Officer of TMAC, stated, “TMAC continues to grow our cashflow with record revenue of $67.9 million and record low AISC(1) and Cash Costs(1) of US$992 per ounce and US$658 per ounce respectively. The Company is also very pleased to report our first ever positive earnings, which for the first quarter was $0.06 per share. With the strengthening of operations, subsequent to quarter-end, TMAC and Sprott amended the terms of our credit agreement to provide additional financial flexibility through elimination of certain covenants and all principal repayments until April 2020, which eliminates US$26 million of principal amortization in this period, and thereafter amortization has been reduced to US$2.5 million per quarter commencing on April 1, 2020, less than half the previous amortization amount.”
