-
In October, Andean announced management changes and a corporate reorganization, which together are expected to lead to a near-term reduction in corporate overhead.
"While last year's performance fell short of expectations, we believe we have implemented the necessary operational and team changes to stabilize results in 2023," stated Mr. Alberto Morales, CEO of Andean. "While we do not control the price of silver, which was down by 13% year-over-year, we are focused on improving recoveries and controlling costs. We have leveraged our technical knowledge and believe that prior recovery issues are being addressed; moreover, outside technical consultants have also been engaged to provide further insight. Like most companies, we have also been impacted by the challenging macro environment and we continue to work on lowering costs as inflationary cost pressures linger."
Mr. Morales continued, "We are excited about the possibilities for the upcoming year. Despite the macroeconomic pressures and spot price volatility that prevailed during 2022, we have maintained our strong debt-free balance sheet with approximately $90 million in liquidity. Andean has a strong foundation to support its two-pronged growth strategy - growth in Bolivia and acquisition growth in the wider Americas. We continue to actively seek out and review potential acquisition targets that will advance our vision of becoming a multi-jurisdictional mid-tier producer."
FY2023 Guidance
The production outlook for 2023 is based on the Company's historical performance and experience. The 2023 outlook is forward looking and based on certain estimates and assumptions which involve risks and uncertainties and is predicated on global economic conditions, the conflict in Ukraine, social unrest and the COVID-19 pandemic having no material impact on the Company's production and costs. Actual results may vary materially from management's expectations. Please refer to the Company's "Forward-looking Statements" later in this press release and the "Risks Factors" section in the Company's MD&A for further information.
Highlights of the 2023 outlook include:
-
Maintaining consistent silver production levels: 2023 production is expected to be between 4.8 million and 5.2 million Ag Eq ounces based on current mining and materials purchasing plans. Based on our plan, production is expected to increase in the second half of the year and represent approximately 54% of annual production.
-
Expects to maintain the same level of production cost of sales: On a per ounce basis, production costs of sales is expected to be between $17.90 and $18.50 per silver ounces for 2023 compared to $18.22 per silver ounces in 2022.
-
Improved AISC(2) per ounce: AISC(2) per ounce of silver sold is expected to range between $19.50 and $20.30 in 2023, which is lower than actual for 2022 of $21.06. This reflects the benefits of corporate reorganization announced during Q4 2022. AISC(2) are expected to trend lower in the second half of the year, consistent with the stronger production profile.
-
Higher capital expenditures: Total capital expenditures are expected to be in the range of $8.0 million to $10.0 million, due primarily to the spending planned on the FDF/DSF projects.
-
Lower corporate general and administrative expenses (excluding corporate development): Corporate overhead is expected to be between $5.9 million and $6.2 million in 2023 compared to 2022 spending of $8.0 million.
The following table sets out Andean's production and AISC guidance for 2023 together with its actual results for 2022:
2023 Guidance(1) | 2022 Actual Results | |
Silver equivalent production | 4.8 million oz to 5.2 million oz | 5.0 million oz |
AISC (by-product) | $19.50 to $20.30/Ag Eq oz | $21.06/Ag Eq oz |
Capital expenditures | $8.0 million to $10.0 million | $3.0 million |
(1) Andean's commodity price assumptions supporting this estimate are $21.00/ounce silver and $1,650/ounce gold.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures, Ratios and Supplementary Financial Measures
Operating Cash Costs ("OCC"), All-in Sustaining Costs ("AISC") and All-in Costs ("AIC")
OCC, AISC and AIC are non-GAAP financial measures set out under a guidance note released by the World Gold Council in September 2013 and updated in November 2018. These measures are used by management to assess the Company's performance and its expected future performance; however, these measures do not have any standardized meaning. As such, there are likely to be differences in the method of computation when compared to similar measures presented by other issuers. Accordingly, these measures are intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS.
-
OCC include total production cash costs incurred at the Company's mining operations, which form the basis of the Company's cash costs, less by-product revenues from gold sales.
-
AISC on a by-product basis per ounce is a non-GAAP ratio calculated as all-in sustaining costs on a by-product basis divided by ounces of silver equivalent sold. All-in sustaining costs on a by-product basis is a non-GAAP financial measure calculated as the aggregate of production costs as recorded in the consolidated statements of (loss) income, refining and transport costs, cash component of sustaining capital expenditures, lease payments related to sustaining assets, corporate general and administrative expenses and accretion expenses. When calculating all-in sustaining costs on a by-product basis, all revenue received from the sale of gold is treated as a reduction of costs incurred. The Company believes that AISC represents the total costs of producing silver from current operations and provides the Company and other stakeholders of the Company with additional information relating to the Company's operational performance and ability to generate cash flows.
-
AIC represents AISC plus non-sustaining exploration and evaluation costs.
-
Non-sustaining exploration and evaluation costs represent costs associated with the Company's exploration portfolio, primarily relating to activities at San Pablo, Rio Blanco and the Company's two tailings storage facilities - the fines disposal facility and the dry-stack facility. Certain other cash expenditures including tax payments, debt payments, dividends and financing costs are also not included in the calculation of AIC. The Company reports these measures on a silver ounce sold basis.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
The Company has included EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA as a non-GAAP financial measure in this press release. The Company excludes certain items from net income to provide a measure which allows the Company and investors to evaluate the results of the underlying core operations of the Company and its ability to generate cash flows.
