14.08.2014  |  Marketwired

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - Aug 14, 2014) - Silvercorp Metals Inc. ("Silvercorp" or the "Company") (TSX:SVM)(NYSE:SVM) reported its financial and operating results for the first quarter ended June 30, 2014 ("Q1 Fiscal 2015").

The Company is pleased that operational improvements enacted in the prior fiscal year have attributed to favourable results in all aspects of operations. Compared to the same quarter last year, silver head grade improved from 200 grams per tonne ("g/t") to 227 g/t, lead head grade increased from 2.7% to 3.3%, cash mining cost decreased 16% to $42.77 per tonne, and overhead costs decreased by 36% to $4.8 million in Q1 Fiscal 2015. Combined with more efficient capital spending, the Company's cash and short-term investments balance increased to $80.2 million as at the end of the quarter.

FIRST QUARTER HIGHLIGHTS

  • Silver production (excluding GC mine metal production) of 1.1 million ounces and gold production of 3,461 ounces;
  • Lead production of 11.5 million pounds and zinc production of 1.2 million pounds;
  • Sales of $30.6 million;
  • Gross margin of 51%;
  • Cash flows from operations of $13.8 million, or $0.08 per share;
  • Net income of $2.7 million, or $0.02 per share;
  • Cash cost per ounce of silver, net of by-product credits, of $0.46;
  • All-in sustaining cost per ounce of silver, net of by-product credits, of $11.62; and
  • Trial mining at the GC mine produced 48,396 tonnes of ore yielding an additional 145,000 ounces of silver, 1.5 million pounds of lead, and 2.3 million pounds of zinc.

FINANCIALS

In Q1 Fiscal 2015, net income attributable to equity holders of the Company was $2.7 million or $0.02 per share compared to $4.6 million, or $0.03 per share for the three months ended June 30, 2013 ("Q1 Fiscal 2014").

In the current quarter, the Company's financial results were mainly impacted by the following: (i) improved production cost control yielded higher profit margins of 51% compared to 44% in the same prior year quarter, (ii) general and administrative spending declined by 36% from the prior year quarter, offset by (iii) lower metal production as silver, lead and zinc production decreased 18%, 14%, and 67%, respectively and (iv) lower net realized silver price of $15.79 per ounce, which is 11% lower compared to $17.66 per ounce in the same prior year quarter.

In Q1 Fiscal 2015, the Company realized sales of $30.6 million, a decrease of 23% from $39.8 million in Q1 Fiscal 2014. Metal sales were mainly impacted by a lower net realized silver price and lower production, offset by higher head grades achieved.

Cost of sales in Q1 Fiscal 2015 was $15.0 million compared to $22.5 million in Q1 Fiscal 2014 and included cash costs of $11.9 million compared to $18.9 million in Q1 Fiscal 2014. The decrease in cost of sales is attributable to an overall decrease of 11% in production costs and 20% less ore production in the quarter compared to the prior year period.

The gross profit margin in Q1 Fiscal 2015 was 51% compared to 44% in Q1 Fiscal 2014. The increase in gross profit is mainly driven by the reduction of production cost offset by decreases in silver prices.

Cash flows from operations in Q1 Fiscal 2015 were $13.8 million or $0.08 per share, compared to $17.7 million, or $0.10 per share, in Q1 Fiscal 2014.

OPERATIONS

In Q1 Fiscal 2015, the Company produced 1.1 million ounces of silver, 3,461 ounces of gold, 11.5 million pounds of lead, and 1.2 million pounds of zinc, compared to 1.4 million ounces of silver, 3,777 ounces of gold, 13.5 million pounds of lead, and 3.7 million pounds of zinc, respectively, in Q1 Fiscal 2014. Metal production in this quarter was positively impacted by improved dilution control, which resulted in a 14% and 23% increase in silver and lead head grades. This was offset by a 20% decrease in ore mined which resulted in overall lower metal production.

Including the trial mining production from the GC mine, the total metal production in the quarter was 1.27 million ounces of silver, 13.0 million pounds of lead and 3.5 million pounds of zinc.

1. Ying Mining District, Henan Province, China

In Q1 Fiscal 2015, the total ore mined at the Ying Mining District was 173,485 tonnes compared to total ore production of 233,257 tonnes in Q1 Fiscal 2014. In the current quarter, the Company's ongoing focus on dilution control resulted in 26% lower ore production. As a result of improved dilution control, silver and lead head grades at the Ying Mining District improved 14% and 23%, respectively, to 227 g/t for silver and 3.3% for lead, from 200 g/t for silver and 2.7% for lead, respectively, in Q1 Fiscal 2014.

In Q1 Fiscal 2015, the Ying Mining District produced 1.1 million ounces of silver, 822 ounces of gold, 11.5 million pounds of lead, and 1.2 million pounds of zinc, compared to 1.4 million ounces of silver, 1,282 ounces of gold, 13.1 million pounds of lead, and 2.9 million pounds of zinc in Q1 Fiscal 2014. The decrease in metals produced is mainly due to the lower ore production offset by improved head grades experienced in the quarter.

The cost control initiatives at the Ying Mining District yielded positive results in Q1 Fiscal 2015 where total and cash mining costs per tonne were $58.35 and $46.96, a 10% and 15% decrease, respectively, compared to $65.09 and $54.95, in Q1 Fiscal 2014. The overall decrease of 15% in cash mining costs per tonne was mainly due to reductions in (i) mining preparation expenditures; (ii) labour and material costs; and (iii) mine administration costs. On a per tonne basis, labour costs decreased 40%, mine administration costs decreased 33% and mining preparation expenditures decreased 18%, respectively, as compared to Q1 Fiscal 2014.

On the foundation of production cost efficiencies and lower overhead administrative costs, the all-in sustaining cost per ounce of silver, net of by-product credits, in this quarter, improved to $8.85 compared to $11.36 in the prior year quarter.

In Q1 Fiscal 2015, total ore milled was 169,480 tonnes, a decrease of 28% compared to 236,173 tonnes in Q1 Fiscal 2014. Cash milling costs were $12.16 compared to $12.06 in Q1 Fiscal 2014.

The consolidated operational results for the past five quarters at the Ying Mining District are summarized in the table below:

2. BYP Mine, Hunan Province, China

In Q1 Fiscal 2015, the BYP mine processed 30,548 tonnes of ore compared to 29,975 tonnes in Q1 Fiscal 2014. In Q1 Fiscal 2015, the Company sold 2,639 ounces of gold compared to 2,338 ounces of gold in Q1 Fiscal 2014. Gold head grade for Q1 Fiscal 2015 was 2.8 g/t compared to 2.8 g/t in Q1 Fiscal 2014.

Certain capital upgrades are necessary at the BYP mine in order to sustain ongoing production. However, in consideration of the required expenditures and the current market environment, the Company has decided to defer such capital investments until a later time. As such, in August 2014, the Company has suspended mining activities at the BYP mine. As the BYP mine is not viewed as a core asset, the Company is considering various strategic options for this project.

Exploration and development expenditures at the BYP mine were $0.3 million in the current quarter compared to $1.6 million in the prior year quarter.

DEVELOPMENT AND EXPLORATION

1. Ying Mining District, Henan Province, China

During the quarter, the Company completed approximately 16,500 metres ("m") of horizontal tunnels, raises and declines. Total exploration and development expenditures for the Ying Mining District were $8.1 million compared to $9.7 million in Q1 Fiscal 2014.

2. GC Project, Guangdong Province, China

During the quarter, with the temporary Safety Production Permit, the Company continued mine development, ramping up trial mining production, mill processing and stope preparation work. As at the end of July, the Company has passed the final site inspection for the Safety Production Permit. The issuance of the final Safety Production Permit is expected prior to the expiration of the temporary permit which was extended to the end of September 2014.

As part of trial mining activities in Q1 Fiscal 2015, the Company mined 48,396 tonnes of ore and milled 55,784 tonnes of ore, yielding 145,000 ounces of silver, 1.5 million pounds of lead, 2.3 million pounds of zinc and 3.6 million pounds of sulphur. The head grades at the GC mine were 110 g/t for silver, 1.4% for lead, 2.5% for zinc, and 9.0% for sulphur.

Total and cash mining cost per tonne were $64.62 and $42.23 respectively, while total and cash milling cost per tonne were $25.54 and $19.17. A summary of the operational and financial results(1) of the GC mine are as follows:

(1) Production in the trial mining phase at the GC mine is excluded from the Company's total reported production results on page 10. Revenue from metal sales is offset against cost capitalized.

Based on the operational results in this quarter, the Company is pleased that the GC mine is approaching its expected operational level in accordance to the guidance for this fiscal year. Prior to declaration of commercial production, the Company will continue to ramp up mining in the coming quarters to reach operational results that consistently and sustainably achieve our planned production. While the GC mine has not declared commercial production, revenue from metal sales is offset against costs capitalized.

In Q1 Fiscal 2015, $0.4 million (Q1 Fiscal 2014 - $6.2 million) of exploration and development expenditures were incurred at the GC mine.
