Lake Shore Gold to Repay $20 Million Standby Line of Credit

17.12.2014  |  Marketwired

TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Dec 17, 2014) - Lake Shore Gold Corp. (TSX:LSG)(NYSE MKT:LSG) ("Lake Shore Gold" or the "Company") today announced that it will repay the $20.0 million outstanding balance on its standby line of credit (the "Standby Line") on December 31, 2014. Under the terms of an agreement with Sprott Resource Lending Partnership ("Sprott"), the Company will repay the $20.0 million of principal and pay approximately $1.4 million in fees. By repaying the remaining balance in December 2014, the Company will save over $2.4 million of interest over the remaining term of the debt (to November 2016), including $1.8 million during 2015.

Once the Standby Line is repaid, the Company will have approximately $7.0 million of debt remaining with Sprott, all related to a gold-linked note. The gold-linked note is being repaid monthly, with the final payment to be made in May 2015.

Tony Makuch, President and Chief Executive Officer of Lake Shore Gold, commented: "We have made excellent progress reducing our debt levels while also generating net free cash flow. Earlier this year, we said we would repay $20.0 to $25.0 million of debt in 2014 while also building our cash position. With the $20.0 million repayment we will make later this month, we will have repaid a total of $45.0 million of debt this year and increased our cash and bullion from $34.0 million at the beginning of 2014 to approximately $60.0 million ending the year. Our increased financial strength is largely the result of a solid operating performance during the year, with the Company on track for record production of at least 180,000 ounces of gold and both cash operating costs and all-in sustaining costs beating our full-year 2014 targets."
