CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT

FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS TO 30 JUNE 2020

Dear Shareholder,

I am pleased to present Condor Gold plc's ("Condor Gold", "Condor", the "Group" or the "Company" www.condorgold.com) unaudited interim financial report for the three and six months ended 30 June 2019. The Company's main focus during the first 6 months of 2020 has been two-fold. Firstly, on fulfilling the conditions of an Environmental Permit granted in August 2018 by the Ministry of the Environment and Natural Resources ("MARENA") for the development, construction and operation of a single open pit mine, a 2,800 tpd or 1.0 Mt per annum CIL processing plant and associated infrastructure at the La India Project, Nicaragua. The permitted La India open pit is estimated to produce between 80,000 oz to 100,000 oz gold per annum or a total of 600,000 oz gold over a 6 to 7-year period. Secondly, successfully holding two Public Consultations and being granted Environmental Permits to develop and extract ore from 2 high grade feeder pits, which provides additional mill feed to the already permitted processing plant and its associated mine site infrastructure. Following the permitting of the 2 high grade feeder pits in May 2020, which in aggregate have circa 232,000 oz gold at 5.5 g/t gold, Condor has 1.12M oz gold open pit Mineral Resources permitted for extraction (8,583Kt at 3.3g/t gold for 903,000 oz gold in the Indicated category and 1,901Kt at 3.6g/t gold for 220,000 oz gold in the Inferred category) inclusive of a Mineral Reserve of 6.9Mt at 3.0g/t gold for 675,000 oz gold.

During the period the Company has been focused on de-risking La India Project by advancing and completing several technical and engineering studies, some of which are a condition of the Environmental Permit. The following progress has been made:

?

Under the terms of the Environment Permit, the Company has to purchase or have legal agreements in place for the land required for the mine site infrastructure. Offers have been made to all land owners. The Company has now purchased 85% of the land in and around the permitted La India open pit mine site area thereby getting close to completing one of the main conditions of the Environmental Permit and significantly de-risking the Project. The Company has purchased 64 plots of land totalling 659 hectares in and around the permitted La India open pit mine site infrastructure, of which 479 hectares has been purchased this year, at the time of writing. In addition, the Company can also demonstrate physical possession for approximately 18 years on the land covering the Mestiza open pit, has purchased the majority of this land and has claimed ownership over 303 hectares in this area. The Company has ownership of 96 hectares of land in the area of the America open pit.

?

The Tailings Storage Facility and 2 water retention ponds are being fully designed and engineered with drawings one step short of "issued for construction". Tierra Group Inc, Denver, Colorado has completed site visits and is conducting the engineering studies. Good progress has been made, with 40% of the work completed.

?

The design of the site wide water balance (SWWB), including a surface water management plan, has been awarded to SRK Consulting (UK) Limited ("SRK"). SRK's work includes the area of La India, America and Mestiza open pits. The ultimate objective of the exercise is to produce engineering plans for the installation of the physical components of a management system, including the piping, pumping and structural requirements that will satisfy Nicaraguan authorities and at the same time meet the design standards for a feasibility study. The SWWB will include consideration of the pit dewatering contributions i.e. subsurface hydrology. SRK's remit includes an emphasis on training and capacity building for the local Condor team to ensure full ownership and facilitate implementation and sustainability of the SWWB.

?

Preliminary designs for the layout of the mine site infrastructure including, in some detail, the designs for the location of the processing plant have been completed.

?

Mine and waste dump schedules for a number of mining scenarios have been completed to a level that can be submitted to MARENA, once the capacity of the processing plant is finalised.

?

The processing plant designs will be finalised following the purchase of a second hand or new processing plant.

?

The power studies have been progressed as far as possible but final designs are only possible once the processing plant size has been finalised and the power requirement known. Several meetings have been held with the Ministry of Energy and Mines. A new electricity sub-station is being built closer to Mina La India.

?

MARENA has written to the Company confirming that the final designs for the domestic wastewater treatment system for the offices and accommodation blocks at Mina La India comply with MARENA's technical and environmental requirements and the final designs are approved.

CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT

FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS TO 30 JUNE 2020 (CONTD.)

I am delighted with the preliminary results of the mining dilution studies by SRK on the permitted America and Mestiza satellite feeder pits, which demonstrate that with a selective mining approach the feeder pits could contribute a diluted tonnage of 1,249Kt for a diluted head grade of 4.76 g/t gold containing 191,000 ounces to the mine plan. When these feeder pits are added to the high grade material within a series of "mini pits" containing 387Kt at 4.29g/t gold for 53,300 oz gold within the permitted La India open pit, the total diluted mill feed is 1,637Kt at a 4.65g/t gold diluted head grade containing 245,000 oz gold. This would support a 1,000 tpd production feed to either a small plant constructed by Condor or a toll milling agreement with nearby processing plants for approximately five years, while leaving the bulk of the La India open pit intact, along with the potential for underground production for a long-range development potential (See RNS 4 March 2020).

Condor has run a number of internal mining scenarios ahead of a construction. The primary scenario is an open pit mining scenario from the permitted La India, America and Mestiza open pits, which would support a 4,000tpd processing plant producing approximately 120,000 oz gold per annum. A secondary scenario involves a 2 stage approach, commencing with a high grade open pit mining scenario of 1,000tpd producing approximately 50,000 oz gold per annum, increasing capacity to 4,500tpd in year 3 or 4 and bring in the underground Mineral Resource and potentially increasing production to circa 170,000 oz gold per annum.

On February 28, 2020, the Company successfully held two Public Consultations in the local community as part of the environmental permitting process for the development and extraction of gold from the high grade Mestiza and America open pits. The key Environmental Permits have been granted for the 2 feeder pits. The America open pit hosts 114 thousand tonnes ("Kt") at a grade of 8.1 g/t gold (30,000 oz contained gold) in the Indicated Mineral Resource category and 677Kt at a grade of 3.1 g/t gold (67,000 oz contained gold) in the Inferred Mineral Resource category. The Mestiza open pit hosts 92Kt at a grade of 12.1 g/t gold (36,000 oz contained gold) in the Indicated Mineral Resource category and 341Kt at a grade of 7.7 g/t gold (85,000 oz contained gold) in the Inferred Mineral Resource category. Once added to the La India open pit, which hosts 8,377Kt at a grade of 3.1 g/t gold (837,000 oz contained gold) in the Indicated Mineral Resource category and 883Kt at grade of 2.4 g/t gold (68,000 oz contained gold) in the Inferred Mineral Resource category (La India open pit has a robust, economically viable Pre-Feasibility Study ("PFS") with Mineral Reserves of 6.9 million tonnes ("Mt") at 3.0 g/t for 675,000 oz gold), Condor has 1.12M oz gold open pit Mineral Resources (8,583Kt at 3.3g/t gold for 903,000 oz gold in the Indicated category and 1,901Kt at 3.6g/t gold for 220,000 oz gold in the Inferred category) inclusive of the Mineral Reserve permitted for extraction, which supports an open pit production scenario of 120,000 oz gold per annum.

The intention is to permit the underground Mineral Resource after open pit mining begins. Total underground Mineral Resources are 1.27 Mt at 5.8 g/t gold, for 238,000 oz gold in the Indicated category and 5.47 Mt at 5.1 g/t gold, for 889,000 oz gold in the Inferred category.

The Company continues to enhance its social engagement and activities in the community, thereby maintaining our social licence to operate. Condor has strengthened its community team and stepped up social activities and engagement. The main local focus is the drinking water programme, implemented in April 2017. A total of 340 families are currently benefiting; they receive five-gallon water dispensers each week. In January 2018 Condor initiated ‘Involvement Programmes', which now extend to six groups in the local villageto benefit communities which may be affected by the mine. . Taking the Elderly Group as an example, a committee of six people has been formed. The Company allocates monthly support to the Elderly Group, which decides how this money is spent to benefit the elderly in the Community.

A new mine will create approximately 1,000 jobs during construction and several hundred in the operational phase, with priority given to the local community given appropriate skills, as well as use of local goods and services. The upfront capital cost of approximately US$120 million will have a significant positive impact on the economy. Government and local communities will benefit significantly from royalties and taxes.

As of the date of this document, the ability of the Company to operate has not been materially affected by the on-going Covid-19 pandemic. The situation is kept under close review by management and the Board; certain measures have and will be taken as appropriate to ensure the health and safety of employees in this regard and to reduce the potential spread of the virus within the local community.

Condor Gold plc

CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT

FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS TO 30 JUNE 2020 (CONTD.)

In June 2020 the Company announced it had raised £6.6 million by way of a private placement of new ordinary shares. (See RNS of 28 May 2020 for details). A further £1.1 million has been raised in the first half via exercises of warrants.

Turning to the financial results for the six months to 30 June 2020, the profit for the six-month period was £968 thousand, after currency translation differences of £1.3 million. Gross proceeds of £7.7 million were raised during the period via a private placement and exercises of warrants: 18,082,192 ordinary shares were issued through the private placement at a price of 36.5 pence per share, through which also the Company issued 9,041,090 warrants to shareholders. All of these warrants have an exercise price of 40 pence per share and are exercisable for three years from grant date. There are currently 117,326,945 ordinary shares in issue. The cash and cash equivalents as at 30 June 2020 totalled £7,513,056. Post period, in July 2020, the Company raised £88 thousand by way of further exercises of warrants (See RNS for details).

To conclude, the Company has made good progress in the six-month period and continues to de-risk the Project by fulfilling conditions of the permit to construct and operate a new mine at La India. Gold production at the Project has been materially expanded by the grant of Environmental Permits to extract gold from two high-grade

satellite feeder pits. The result is Condor has 1.12M oz gold open pit Mineral Resources permitted for extraction (8,583Kt at 3.3g/t gold for 903,000 oz gold in the Indicated category and 1,901Kt at 3.6g/t gold for 220,000 oz gold in the Inferred category) inclusive of a Mineral Reserve of 6.9Mt at 3.0g/t gold for 675,000 oz gold.The Company is targeting production of 120,000 oz gold per annum from open pit material for 7 years, which compares to the PFS of 79,300 oz gold p.a. for 7 years. The significant underground Mineral Resource of 1.2M oz gold (1.27Mt at a grade of 5.8 g/t gold, for 238,000 oz gold in the Indicated category and 5.47Mt at a grade of 5.1 g/t gold, for 889,000 oz gold in the Inferred category) will be analysed and potentially converted to Mineral Reserves after production from the open pits has started. The Company has purchased 85% of the land within the permitted La India open pit mine site infrastructure thus significantly de-risking the Project and is closer to completing a major objective of purchasing all the land and commencing site preparation. Simultaneously, the Company is completing the majority of the technical and engineering studies, which are a condition of the Environmental Permit and intends to place a deposit on a processing plant by year end.

LA INDIA PROJECT

Mining Studies

Condor technical staff continues to expand the level of design needed to support eventual operations for La India, Mestiza and America open pits.

Technical investigations in support of the EIA permit conditions continued during the 1st half of the year. The initial work contracted to Tierra Group International was expanded to include designs for the La Laguna retention pond as well as consideration of alternate locations for the TSF. Design criteria and preliminary designs for the TSF have been completed. Required geotechnical work will be conducted following the completion of land negotiations.

Engineering support for a toll milling opportunity is underway, including commercially robust sampling techniques and negotiation models for assessment of the impact of various commercial terms have been compiled. Sampling issues for toll milling represent one of the larger risks for any agreement. Example agreements were collected as well as discussions with industry contacts.

Work has commenced on a site wide water balance that will provide key design criteria for surface and subsurface water management system structure designs and construction plans. This work will be an extension to previous work conducted during the PFS study and will be undertaken by SRK.

Samuel Engineering was retained to perform a more detailed review of the available processing plant at the former Marlin Mine in Guatemala. The preliminary review identified suitable components and will be bolstered with on-site inspections and designs if mutually acceptable terms can be reached with the owners.

Condor staff commissioned a power study as a basis for operating cost development, identifying sourcing options, costs and risk profiles. Power costs remain a significant component of processing costs, prompting Condor to actively seek less expensive alternatives.

Staff has been researching the operating and capital cost of metallurgical laboratory facilities for La India for eventual use in operations.

Work on improved dilution models was completed early in the half, as set out in the Company's news release of 4 March 2020. These models applied dilution techniques employed at other similar operations and apply detailed 3D modeling methods to accurately estimate dilution rather than relying upon simplistic dilution factors.

Permitting

In compliance with Nicaraguan law, the Company presented the first Quarterly Reports 2020 per concession to government institutions.

On 17 January, Condor received an 18-month extension to complete the conditions of the environmental permit for La India open pit, originally awarded on 27 July 2018.

From the start of the year the Company followed up on its application for two environmental permits for the America and Mestiza open pits. Both were approved to go forward to Public Consultations on 28 February and on 24 and 29 of April, the environmental permits for Mestiza and America were respectively awarded.

The major focus and effort of the local team has been acquiring land for the permitted mine site infrastructure for La India open pit. The Company has purchased 85% of the land in and around the permitted La India open pit mine site area comprising 64 plots of land totalling 659 hectares of which 479 hectares has been purchased this year, at the time of writing.

In compliance with the environmental permit for America, Condor submitted updated versions of the transmission line study and the surface water management study and on 15 June the latter was approved.

On 24 June, a Condor team comprising social, legal, health & safety and environmental areas participated as speakers on a MARENA online workshop: "The use of mercury and cyanide in artisanal mining activities", which was addressed to technicians of the 17 MARENA offices in Nicaragua.

Exploration Activity - 6 months to end-June 2020

During the reporting period Condor has carried out magnetic susceptibility measurements of drill core from several prospects in La India project area (see Figure 1 below). Magnetic susceptibility is a measure of how much a material can become magnetised in an applied magnetic field, which is directly related to the content of ferromagnetic material. In volcanic rocks, such as in the La India project, ferromagnetic materials are strongly related to rock type. Basalts and andesites have a higher concentration of ferromagnesian minerals than dacites and rhyolites and will therefore have a higher magnetic susceptibility.

Hydrothermal alteration processes may transform and even destroy ferrimagnetic minerals, reducing the magnetic susceptibility of a rock and epithermal vein systems like La India may show zonations that are indicative of ore deposits. The objective of the magnetic susceptibility measurements in La India is to improve rock type identification and observe potential alteration halos that could serve to better understand known ore bodies. A total of 11,868 metres of core have been measured from 72 drill holes in seven different prospects (Table 1).

Carrizal, Santa Cruz de La India, El Bordo, Los Rastrojos, Nance Dulce, Ocotillo and Agua Fría. They were also used to promote environmental awareness and share communication materials related to water protection, fire prevention and a calendar for the 2020 environmental celebrations.

Other environmental activities were conducted in collaboration with the social team, the land acquisition team and co-workers to promote environmental awareness. Environmental awareness workshops were provided through the Niñez Feliz programme, including to 20 children, as well as a workshop on water use to 60 villagers from Talpetate and El Tanque villages. Waste Management talks were given to artisanal miners and three cleaning activities were organised with workers and artisanal miners collecting a total of 24 bags of plastic bottles and 441 bags of general waste.

During the first half of the year, a total of 140 lbs of plastic bottles were donated to the "Los Pipitos" recycling programme, a not-for-profit organisation which works with children with learning disabilities.

Since 18 March, when the first confirmed case of Covid-19 in Nicaragua was announced, activities were modified to avoid spreading of the virus, while continuing the implementation of environmental activities.

Condor continues to monitor surface water flow at five sites and groundwater levels at 26 sites, as part of its hydrology and hydrogeology baseline studies. A new site was added, located in Nance Dulce village. Weather data is also monitored daily using three rain gauges and a digital weather station.

Social

During the first quarter of the year, the Company focussed its social activities on securing the social license for Mestiza and America projects through a wide-open communication campaign reaching some 800 villagers from the communities in the directly and indirectly affected areas. During the public consultation on February 28th, both projects were fully presented and explained to 450 attendees, who actively participated and expressed their comments supporting the projects approval.

As result of extensive communications with villagers from the three communities in the vicinity of Mestiza and America projects, Condor built 40 latrines to improve the public health and hygiene of the inhabitants of this area, as well as the repair of more damaged areas of the road which provides access to El Tanque village.

The Company continued executing the involvement programs with committees representing key sectors of the community such as cooperative and independent artisanal miners, the elderly, local business owners, APROSAIC (local association for development initiatives) and water. These communal organisations encompass almost 85% of La India population. The Company has been working very closely with these local organizations holding planned activities every month to address the needs of villagers and improve their quality of life, although some interactions were modified and others suspended due to Covid-19.

Nonetheless the Company continues implementing the potable water program to alleviate water scarcity in the community by distributing purified water weekly to some 390 families, although the dynamics of delivery were adjusted through establishing a central water distribution point.

The Company has prioritized its social budget for support to public health centres by providing decontamination and sanitation equipment and safety masks, among other contributions to further their ability to respond to Covid-19.

The La India, America, Central Breccia, Mestiza and Cacao pits are amenable to open pit mining and the Mineral Resource Estimates are constrained within Whittle optimised pits, which SRK based on the following parameters: A gold price of USD1,500 per ounce of gold with no adjustments. Prices are based on experience gained from other SRK projects. Metallurgical recovery assumptions are between 91-96% for gold, based on testwork conducted to date. Marginal costs of USD19.36/t for processing, USD5.69/t G&A and USD2.35/t for mining, slope angles defined by the Company Geotechnical study which range from angle 40 - 48°, a haul cost of USD1.25/t was added to the Mestiza ore tonnes to consider transportation to the processing plant.

(2) Underground Mineral Resources beneath the open pit are reported at a cut-off grade of 2.0 g/t over a minimum width of 1.0m. Cut-off grades are based on a price of USD1,500 per ounce of gold and gold recoveries of 91 percent for resources, costs of USD19.36/t for processing, USD4.5/t G&A and USD50.0/t for mining, without considering revenues from other metals.

(3) Mineral Resources as previously quoted by SRK (22 December 2011) are reported at a cut-off grade of 1.5 g/t, and have not been updated as part of the current study due to no further detailed exploration.

(4) Mineral Resources are not Mineral Reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability. All figures are rounded to reflect the relative accuracy of the estimate and have been used to derive sub-totals, totals and weighted averages. Such calculations inherently involve a degree of rounding and consequently introduce a margin of error. Where these occur, SRK does not consider them to be material. All composites have been capped where appropriate. The concession is wholly owned by and exploration is operated by Condor Gold plc.

(5) The MRE uses the terminology, definitions and guidelines given in the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (CIM) Standards on Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves (May 2014) (the "CIM Standards").

TECHNICAL INFORMATION

Certain disclosure contained in this document relating to the La India Project of a scientific or technical nature has been summarised or extracted from the technical report entitled "Technical Report on the La India Gold Project, Nicaragua, December 2014", dated November 13, 2017 with an effective date of December 21, 2014 (the "Technical Report"), prepared in accordance with NI 43-101. The Technical Report was prepared by or under the supervision of Tim Lucks, Principal Consultant (Geology & Project Management), Gabor Bacsfalusi, Principal Consultant (Mining), Benjamin Parsons, Principal Consultant (Resource Geology), each of SRK Consulting (UK) Limited, and Neil Lincoln of Lycopodium Minerals Canada Ltd., each of whom is an independent Qualified Person as such term is defined in NI 43-101.

On January 28, 2019 the Company announced an updated mineral resource estimate at La India ("MRE"). The MRE as at 25 January 2019 is 9.85 million tonnes ("M tonnes" or "Mt") at 3.6 g/t gold for 1,140,000 oz gold in the Indicated category and 8.48M tonnes at 4.3g/t gold for 1,179,000 oz gold in the Inferred category. The MRE did not show a material change in the number of ounces of gold reported in the Indicated Category or Inferred Category. The methods applied to conducting the geological modelling and estimation for the MRE have not changed from those described in the Technical Report. Given that there has been no material change to the MRE, the Mineral Resource Estimate as disclosed in the Technical Report was not materially impacted by this update. More information relating to the updated MRE is supported by the press release titled "Mineral Resource Update on La India Project, Nicaragua, including initial declaration of new open pit mineral resource at Mestiza" dated 28 January 2019 which is available on SEDAR under the Company's issuer profile. The MRE was prepared by SRK Consulting (UK) Limited ("SRK") and uses the terminology, definitions and guidelines given in the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (CIM) Standards on Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves (May 2014). The MRE update was reviewed and approved by Andrew Cheatle, P. Geo. a qualified person within the meaning of NI 43-101.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS TO 30 JUNE 2020

1. COMPLIANCE WITH ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

Basis of preparation

This condensed set of financial statements has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting as adopted by the European Union and also as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB"). It has been prepared using accounting policies consistent with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") and should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2019 which have been prepared in accordance with IFRS as adopted by the EU and as issued by the IASB.

The interim results for the three and six months to 30 June 2020 are unaudited and the accounts in this interim report do not therefore constitute statutory accounts in accordance with Section 434 of the Companies Act 2006.

Statutory accounts for the year ended 31 December 2019 have been filed with the Registrar of Companies and the auditor's report was unqualified and did not contain any statement under Section 498(2) or 498(3) of the Companies Act 2006. The statutory accounts contained a material uncertainty in respect of going concern which referred to the Group's need to raise further funding in order to progress exploration activity. There were no other matters drawn to the attention of the users of the financial statements in the auditor's report.

The interim financial information for the three and six months ended 30 June 2020 was approved by the Board on 13 August 2020.

The directors do not propose an interim dividend.

While it is noted that the Company will require further finance within 12 months of the date of release of these financial statements, the Directors consider the going concern basis to be appropriate based on cash flow forecasts and projections and current levels of commitments, cash and cash equivalents, together with the ability of the Company to raise finance in May 2020. The comparative period presented is that of the six months ended 30 June 2019.

The Directors are of the opinion that due to the nature of the Group's activities and the events during that period these are the most appropriate comparatives for the current period. Copies of these financial statements are available on the Company's website and on www.Sedar.com.

2.

ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The interim financial information for the three and six months ended 30 June 2020 has been prepared on the basis of the accounting policies set out in the most recently published financial statements for the Group for the year ended 31 December 2019, which are available on the Company's website www.condorgold.com and on SEDAR at www.sedar.com, as the Company does not anticipate the addition of new standards to the Group's results for the year ended 31 December 2019 would materially impact the results.

3. REVENUE AND SEGMENTAL REPORTING


The following is an analysis of the carrying amount of segment assets, and additions to plant and equipment, analysed by geographical area in which the assets are located.The Group has not generated any revenue during the period. The Group's operations are located in the United Kingdom and Nicaragua.
