(1. Amounts presented above are aggregate balances of certain
line items presented in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive
Income.)
(2. This financial performance indicator is a non-IFRS measure.
It is used internally by management to assess the performance of
the business)
(and is therefore considered relevant to readers of this
document.)
Group EBITDA of $148.2 million 2022 was a 14% improvement on the
comparative period reflecting:
-- Higher revenue of $651.1 million from gold sales of 357,447oz
(up 13%) at an average realised price of $1,819/oz (up 5%). The
higher ounces sold reflects increased gold production (up 19%) due
to:
o improved Sulphide processing performance with gold recovered
up 4% (gold poured up 19%);
o higher gold recovered from both Syama Oxide (up 8%) and Mako
(up 2%); and
o significant drawdown from gold in circuit of 21,752oz (2021:
3,084oz).
-- Higher cost of sales due to significant increases in fuel and
consumables prices as well as the impact of non-cash adjustments
for bullion and gold in circuit (as a result of the continued
drawdown of material).
-- Lower exploration and business development expenditure as a
result of prior year transaction costs associated with divestments
(sale of Bibiani and Cote D'Ivoire exploration assets).
The following abnormal items have been added back to the
reported net loss in arriving at the underlying net profit of $20.3
million for the year ended 31 December 2022:
-- Disputed Senegalese tax expense ($23.9m), relates to an
ongoing dispute with the Senegalese tax authorities regarding PMC's
tax exoneration status;
-- Historical tax adjustments ($14.8m), included within this
amount is $3.0m expected to be cash settled, with the remainder
expected to be settled with VAT and other tax credits;
-- Provision for obsolete consumables ($16.2m), with $2.3m
pertaining to Mako and the remainder to Syama.
Financial Position
Net debt decreased by $197.2 million to $31.6 million at 31
December 2022 (31 December 2021:
$228.8 million). Total borrowings at 31 December 2022 were
$125.6 million comprising $80.0 million drawn on the Term Loan
Facility and RCF, and overdraft facilities in Mali and Senegal of
$45.6 million. Available liquidity of $189.0 million includes cash
and bullion of $94.0 million and $95.0 million of undrawn RCF. As
at the date of this release, the RCF has been fully repaid with
$100 million available to be redrawn.
Resolute continued to invest in the business in 2022 with
spending on development, property, plant, and equipment totalling
$63.0 million (2021: $56.9 million) including outlays for tailings
facilities across both sites, capitalised stripping costs and
project capital at Syama.
Syama Gold Mine, Mali
2022 production from the Syama Sulphide circuit was 161,479oz at
an AISC of $1,410/oz. A 19% increase in production at a steady AISC
compared to the prior year ($1,406/oz). Ore mined increased from
2.2Mt to 2.3Mt while the roaster recorded its highest ever
throughput, processing 175.2kt. The Syama sulphide operation is
expected to continue to benefit from the successful planned
maintenance shutdown which was completed in early April 2022.
Production from the Syama Oxide operations was 62,165oz at an
AISC of $1,801/oz. The oxide operations continued lower grade
mining at several satellite pits. Gold poured for the year
increased 9%, with momentum picking up in the second half and the
highest gold production occurring in the December quarter.
Mako Gold Mine, Senegal
2022 production from Mako was 129,425oz at an AISC of $1,318/oz.
Tonnes processed steadily increased over the year reflecting
increased plant uptime and modifications to the SAG Mill
configuration. The increase in AISC reflected a higher volume of
material mined, which impacted mining costs and continued pressure
on consumables amid industry wide inflationary pressures.

Resolute's subsidiaries SOMISY(Mali) and PMC(Senegal), have
received demands for payment to the Local Tax Authorities in
relation to Income Tax and indirect tax for the years ended 31
December 2015 to 2022.
At 31 December 2022 the total provision for indirect taxes has
increased from $50.4 million to $92.9 million.
This increase is as a result of an additional $37.6 million due
to the potential reduction in the Mako tax exoneration period to 5
years. This amount relates to provisions for customs duties and
VAT. Whilst these amounts are recognised as provisions. Resolute is
firmly of the view that it has complied with all the requirements
for the extension of the tax exoneration to 7 years and will
continue to work with the Senegalese authorities to resolve this
matter.
The remainder of the increase relates to an additional $4.6
million of indirect tax provisions in Mali based on government
demands received, with a provision recognised in line with the
requirements of relevant accounting standards. Resolute continues
to challenge the factual basis and validity of these demands which
are strongly disputed due to fundamental misinterpretations of the
application of certain taxes. Resolute continues to work with its
legal and tax advisors to contest the positions taken by the
Authorities.
10 Subsequent events
On 19 January 2023, the Group announced that the Syama North
Resource estimate increased to 34.0 million tonnes at 2.9g/t for
3.2 million ounces of gold.
11 Impairment testing
Impairment indicator assessment
At 31 December 2022, Resolute's quoted market capitalisation was
lower than its net asset carrying value. Further, Resolute noted
that the impact of inflationary pressures on costs and increase in
risk free rate that underpins the applicable discount rate. These
factors were considered as indicators of impairment. As a result,
an impairment test was performed to determine the recoverable
amounts for all CGU's of the Group, being the Syama Gold Mine and
the Mako Gold Mine using the fair value less cost to sell (FVLCD)
method.
Syama CGU - 31 December 2022
Syama indicator assessment
Whilst Syama's 2022 forecast production remain in line with
budget, as a result of the general indicators of impairment noted
above, a formal impairment test was performed to determine the
recoverable amount for the Syama CGU.
Key Assumptions used to determine recoverable amount
The table below summarises the key assumptions used in
determining the recoverable amount:
31 December 2022 31 December 2021
============================== ================ ================
Gold price ($/oz) 1,735-1,534 1,777-1,467
Discount rate (post tax real) 14.8% 14.0%
Unmined resources ($/oz) $20-$58 $20-$54
============================== ================ ================
Gold prices
Gold prices are estimated with reference to external market
forecasts based on a consensus view of market experts.
Discount rate
In determining the recoverable amount of assets, the future cash
flows were discounted using rates based on the CGU's estimated real
weighted average cost of capital, with an additional premium
applied having regard to the CGU's risk profile.
Unmined resources
Unmined resources which are not included in the life -- of --
mine plan as result of the current assessment of economic returns,
timing of specific production alternatives and the prevailing
economic environment have been valued and included in the assessed
fair value.
Operating and capital costs
Life -- of -- mine operating and capital cost assumptions are
based on the Group's latest budget and life -- of mine plans.
Operating cost assumptions reflect an assumption of maintaining
current cost, over the long term, without including expected
improvements over the life of mine.
Recognition
As a result of the analysis performed, there is no impairment
loss recognised for the Syama CGU for the period ended 31 December
2022.
11 Impairment of non current assets (continued)
Mako CGU - 31 December 2022
Mako indicator assessment
Whilst Mako's 2021 forecast production and cost remain in line
with budget, as a result of the general indicators of impairment
noted above and the reduction in the tax exoneration period to 5
years (refer to Note 5), a formal impairment test was performed to
determine the recoverable amount for the Mako CGU.
K ey Assumptions
The table below summarises the key assumptions used in the
determining the recoverable amount:
31 December 2022 31 December 2021
============================== ================ ================
Gold price ($/oz) 1,735-1,534 1,777-1,467
Discount rate (post tax real) 10.5% 10.5%
Unmined resources ($/oz) $48 $44
============================== ================ ================
Gold prices
Gold prices are estimated with reference to external market
forecasts based on a consensus view of market experts.
Discount rate
In determining the recoverable amount of assets, the future cash
flows were discounted using rates based on the CGU's estimated real
discount rate, with an additional premium applied having regard to
the CGU's risk profile.
Unmined resources
Unmined resources which are not included in a CGU's life -- of
-- mine plan as result of the current assessment of economic
returns, timing of specific production alternatives and the
prevailing economic environment have been valued and included in
the assessed fair value.
Operating and capital costs
Life -- of -- mine operating and capital cost assumptions are
based on the Group's latest budget and life -- of mine plans.
Operating cost assumptions reflect an assumption of maintaining
current cost, over the long term, without including expected
improvements over the life of mine.
Recognition
As a result of the analysis performed, there is no impairment
loss recognised for the Mako CGU for the period ended 31 December
2022.
12 Investment in associates
The Group has 23.3% investment in Loncor Resources Inc, with a
carrying value of nil as at 31 December 2022 (31 December 2021:$1.2
million).
13 Restatement of comparative information
During 2022, the Group identified information that resulted in a
restatement to the prior periods. The impact on previously reported
amounts is summarised in the tables below, with the restatement
only affecting amounts presented in the Consolidated Statement of
Financial Position.

Total equity 425,560 (6,970) 417,102
========================================================== ================ =========== ================
The decrease in net assets at 31 December 2021 is due to the
derecognition of income tax asset for the Syama operation in Mali.
A reduction of CFA 4.271 billion ($6.9 million) was recorded on the
basis that this amount did not meet the recognition criteria for a
tax asset at 30 June 2018 and should have been recognised in the
Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income as a tax
expense.
At 1 January 2021, this resulted in the reduction of the income
tax assets of $6.9 million, a reduction in retained earnings of
$5.6 million and a reduction in Non-controlling interest of $1.4
million.
