The Company's financial performance in the Third Quarter, 2016 improved compared to the Third Quarter, 2015. Earnings were up as a result of higher metal prices and lower operating costs.

Endeavour CEO Bradford Cooke commented, “Our financial performance in the third quarter was much improved thanks to higher metal prices and lower operating costs. Having successfully minimized our all-in sustaining costs and boosted our free cash flows in recent quarters, management continued to focus on optimizing near-term production and long-term growth in Q3, 2016.

“As a result of our growing cash position in recent quarters, we elected to increase our exploration and development budgets in H2, 2106, which means our AISC should rise in Q4, 2016. Notwithstanding, we are well ahead of our production targets and below our cost targets for the year so we expect to readily meet our guidance on both in 2016.

“We currently have 12 drill rigs working on six projects to grow our resource base. With the recent acquisition of the Parral properties to our project pipeline, Endeavour now has one of the strongest organic growth profiles in the silver mining sector.”

Operations Update

At Guanaceví, plant throughput of 892 tonnes per day (tpd) in Q3, 2016 continued to lag behind plan as the mining contractor focused on accelerating mine development, and company personnel focused on improving underground services, including power, dewatering and ventilation. Due to variations in the ore-bodies, grades were lower than plan for the quarter. Management expects throughput to improve in the fourth quarter.

The Company is initiating a $2.8 million capital investment program in Q4, 2016, as part of a three-year, $8.4 million capital investment for mine development and ramp down into the Santa Cruz Sur ore-body. This investment will provide access to an indicated resource of over 650,000 tonnes grading 250 g/t silver and 0.70 g/t gold. The currently defined ore-body is open to the south and at depth.

At Bolañitos, plant throughput averaging 1,442 tpd in Q3, 2016 continued to exceed plan due in part to the draw-down of an historical ore stockpile and mining of new extensions of the LL-Asunción ore-body in and around historic mine workings. Bolañitos is significantly ahead of production guidance for the year.

The Company commenced a $1.7 million capital investment program in Q3, 2016 to develop the Plateros orebody located close to the existing LL-Ascunción mine workings. The development is accessing an indicated resource of over 130,000 tonnes grading 116 g/t silver and 1.61 g/t gold, still open at depth.

At El Cubo, plant throughput of 1,531 tpd in Q3, 2016 also exceeded plan, as development opened up new areas for mining at Santa Cecilia. Production is expected to continue close to 1,500 tpd in the fourth quarter. El Cubo is also significantly ahead of production guidance for the year.

The Company commenced a $1.6 million program in Q3, 2016 to extend the V-Asunción ramp to depth an additional 1.6 km in order to access an indicated resource of more than 300,000 tonnes grading 141 g/t silver and 1.55 g/t gold. The V-Asunción ore-body extends well south of the current mine plan.

Financial Results

For the third quarter ended September 30, 2016, the Company generated revenue totaling $42.1 million (2015 - $42.7 million). During the quarter, the Company sold 1,200,467 silver oz and 14,228 gold oz at realized prices of $19.16 and $1,340 per oz respectively, compared to sales of 1,844,556 silver oz and 14,599 gold oz at realized prices of $14.67 and $1,074 per oz respectively in Q3, 2015.

After cost of sales of $26.9 million (2015 - $40.6 million), mine operating earnings amounted to $15.2 million (2015 -$2.1 million) from mining and milling operations in Mexico. Excluding depreciation and depletion of $2.8 million (2015 - $9.8 million), and share-based compensation recovery of $0.2 million (2015- $0.1 million expense), mine operating cash flow before taxes was $17.8 million (2015 - $12.0 million) in Q3, 2016. Net earnings were $5.6 million (2015 - net loss of $14.1 million) after exploration expense of $2.4 million (2015 - $1.1 million) and corporate general and administrative costs of $2.8 million (2015 - $1.8 million).

Consolidated cash costs of production were $5.27 per oz, net of gold by-product credits in Q3, 2016, significantly lower than the $8-9 per oz guidance due to higher throughput, depreciation of the Mexican peso, and higher gold prices impacting the gold credit. Management expects cash costs to rise slightly in the fourth quarter but on an annual basis should be significantly lower than company guidance.

All-in sustaining costs (AISC)  in accordance with the World Gold Council standard were $11.47 per oz, net of gold by-product credits, in Q3, 2016, substantially lower than the $12-13 per oz AISC guidance due to reduced cash operating costs and lower sustaining investments. Management expects AISC to rise in the fourth quarter with an increase in sustaining mine development and exploration expenditures but on an annual basis should be lower than company guidance.

Cash holdings at the end of Q3, 2016 grew to $83.2 million and working capital rose to $91.9 million which is sufficient for the Company to meet its short- and medium-term growth goals.
