News Releases

VANCOUVER, BC--(Marketwired - November 02, 2015) - Endeavour Silver Corp. (NYSE: EXK) (TSX: EDR) released today its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2015. Endeavour owns and operates three underground silver-gold mines in Mexico: the Guanaceví mine in Durango state and the Bolañitos and El Cubo mines in Guanajuato state.

The Company's financial performance in the Third Quarter, 2015 reflects higher revenue and cash flow but lower net earnings compared to both the Second Quarter, 2015 and the Third Quarter, 2014. The improved top-line performance was a result of higher metal production and lower operating costs both quarter-on-quarter and year-on-year, while the reduced bottom-line performance was due to the negative impact of the falling Mexican peso on current assets and deferred income taxes, and a write-down of marketable security investments.

Endeavour CEO Bradford Cooke commented, "Given the falling precious metal prices this year, management has continued to focus on reducing costs and improving productivity at each of our mines, with significant success. Over the past five quarters, we have reduced our consolidated operating costs per tonne by 28% from US$103.58 down to US$75.07. Our operations team can take great pride in their accomplishments resulting from our philosophy of continuous improvement. We expect to meet or beat our guidance on all operating metrics for 2015."

Operating Results

At Guanaceví, operating performance in Q3, 2015 continued to exceed expectations with metal production up due to slightly higher than planned plant throughput, metal recoveries and silver grades. Ore grades started to decline in Q3, 2015 as mining moved into lower grade areas of the mine plan. Exploration drilling and an underground development heading at the Santa Cruz mine extended mineralization into a new high-grade area to the southeast, outside of the current resource. Guanaceví production is on track to beat 2015 guidance.

At Bolañitos, operations exceeded plan in the context of a scheduled production ramp-down to 1,000 tpd this year. Lower than planned mill feed from the El Cubo mine allowed Bolañitos to mill just under 1,200 tpd of Bolañitos ore in Q3, 2015. The development of, and production from, the new LL-Asunción vein continues to expand as it replaces falling production from the Lucero group of veins. Bolañitos is on track to exceed 2015 silver production guidance and meet the high end of the 2015 gold production guidance.

At El Cubo, mine and mill operations achieved the 2,200 tpd target in early July but averaged 2,000 tpd in the third quarter due to lower than expected equipment and personnel availabilities and slower than planned mine development. Site management continues to push mine development in order to achieve 2,200 tpd in the fourth quarter. To help offset holiday downtime, the mine is developing some new long-hole stopes. Management has deferred the decision to install additional plant equipment to increase the El Cubo plant capacity to 2,000 tpd as other minor improvements in the flow sheet could increase throughput further and improve recoveries. El Cubo is on track to meet its annual silver production guidance but fall short of the 2015 annual gold production guidance.

On a consolidated basis, the Company expects to meet or beat on 2015 silver production guidance and meet the lower end of the 2015 gold production guidance. On a silver equivalent basis the Company expects to meet the high end of its 2015 production guidance.

Financial Results

For the third quarter ended September 30, 2015, the Company generated revenue totaling $42.7 million (2014 - $40.5 million). During the period, the Company sold 1,844,556 oz silver and 14,599 oz gold, for realized prices of $14.67 and $1,074 per oz respectively, compared to sales of 1,227,466 oz silver and 13,631 oz gold, for realized prices of $18.78 and $1,278 per oz respectively, in the same period of 2014. The accounting treatment for concentrate sales that are pending finalization require mark-to-market adjustments at period-end, significantly reducing the recognized revenue and reported price realized per ounce.

After cost of sales of $40.7 million (2014 - $44.1 million), mine operating earnings amounted to $2.1 million (2014 - loss of $3.6 million) from mining and milling operations in Mexico. Excluding depreciation and depletion of $9.8 million (2014 - $14.4 million), and share-based compensation of $0.1 million (2014 - $0.1 million), mine operating cash flow before taxes was $12.0 million (2014 - $11.5 million) in Q3, 2015. Net operating losses were $0.9 million (2014 - $11.0 million) after exploration expense of $1.2 million (2014 - $4.9 million) and corporate general and administrative costs of $1.8 million (2014 - $2.2 million).

Falling precious metal prices have required all of Endeavour's mines to continue focusing on cost reductions and operational efficiencies. This focus and the depreciation of the Mexican peso resulted in operations being well below cost guidance for the year. For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, cash costs were $7.96 per oz and AISC was $15.07 per oz compared to already revised guidance of $9-10 per oz and $16.00-17.50 per oz respectively. Management expects fourth quarter cost metrics to be similar to the nine months ended September 30, 2015, putting Endeavour on track to significantly beat its revised cash cost and AISC guidance for 2015.
