The results are consistent with the previous guidance with quarter over quarter revenue growth driven by increasing artisanal miner market penetration which supported increased purchase volumes and refined exports. Quarterly purchase volumes do exhibit seasonal fluctuations with lower artisanal production during the rainy season which typically starts toward the end of December 2018 through March 2019.

Intercontinental Gold forecasts fiscal 2019 revenue between $200 to $220 million from gold and commodity trading activity, which assumes current commodity prices, exchange rates and forecast purchase volumes, refined gold export assumptions and based upon historical results and other market factors. Cost of Sales are forecast between $197 to $217 million.

Gorden Glenn, CEO commented: "Record top line revenue, and improved financial results are in large part driven by the experience and commitment of our operations personnel. During our first full year of operations in 2018 we successfully demonstrated the viability and growth potential of our business plan of gold and commodity trading and have now firmly positioned ourselves as a leading commodity trader and gold refiner in Latin America. The outlook for 2019 is equally positive, with significant growth and expansion potential."
