SILVERCREST METALS INC.
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED - EXPRESSED IN CANADIAN DOLLARS)
NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2019

1.        NATURE OF OPERATIONS

SilverCrest Metals Inc. (the “Company” or “SilverCrest”) is a Canadian precious metals exploration company headquartered in Vancouver, BC. The Company was incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia). The common shares of the Company trade on the Toronto Stock Exchange under the symbol “SIL” and on the NYSE-American under the symbol “SILV”. The head office and principal address of the Company is 501-570 Granville Street, Vancouver, BC, Canada, V6C 3P1. The address of the Company’s registered and records office is 19th Floor, 885 West Georgia Street, Vancouver, BC, Canada, V6C 3H4.

While the Company currently has no source of revenue, its cash and cash equivalents of $43 million, as of September 30, 2019, contribute to working capital of $37 million, which management believes will be sufficient to fund its minimum exploration activities and general working capital for the next 12 months. The Company’s financial success is dependent on its ability to discover economically viable mineral deposits. In order to advance beyond the currently planned surface and underground exploration programs at Las Chispas, the Company may require substantial additional financing, which is subject to a number of factors many of which are beyond the Company’s control. There is no assurance that future equity capital will be available to the Company in the amounts or at the times desired by the Company or on terms that are acceptable to it, if at all. These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared by management on a going concern basis which assumes that the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future.

2.        SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Statement of Compliance

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 – Interim Financial Reporting as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). These condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018, which include information necessary or useful to understanding the Company’s business and financial statement presentation. In particular, the Company’s significant accounting policies, use of judgments and estimates were presented in notes 2 and 3, respectively, of those consolidated financial statements, and have been consistently applied, except for the adoption of IFRS 16, starting on January 1, 2019, in the preparation of these condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

Basis of preparation and measurement

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for certain financial instruments which are measured at fair value. Additionally, these condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting, except for cash flow information. Certain comparative figures have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements were approved for issuance by the Board of Directors on November 8, 2019.

Basis of consolidation

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, NorCrest Metals Inc., a Canadian corporation, Minera La Llamarada, S.A. de C.V., a Mexican corporation, and Babicanora Agricola del Noroeste S.A. de C.V., a Mexican corporation. The Company consolidates subsidiaries where the Company has the ability to exercise control. Control is achieved when the Company is exposed to variable returns from involvement with an investee and has the ability to affect the returns through power over the investee. Control is normally achieved through ownership, directly or indirectly, of more than 50 percent of the voting power. Control can also be achieved through power over more than half of the voting rights by virtue of an agreement with other investors or through the exercise of de facto control. All intercompany balances, transactions, income and expenses, and profits or losses have been eliminated on consolidation.

Adoption of new accounting policy - leases

Impact of application of IFRS 16 Leases

Effective January 1, 2019, the Company adopted IFRS 16 using the modified retrospective application method, where the 2018 comparatives are not restated and the cumulative effect of initially applying IFRS 16 has been recorded on January 1, 2019 for any differences identified. The Company has determined that the adoption of IFRS 16 resulted in no adjustments to the opening balance of accumulated deficit.

2.        SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Adoption of new accounting policy – leases (continued)

Impact of application of IFRS 16 Leases (continued)

IFRS 16 introduces significant changes to the lessee accounting by removing the distinction between operating and finance leases under IFRS 17 and requiring the recognition of a right-of-use asset (“ROU asset”) and a lease liability at the lease commencement for all leases, except for short-term leases (lease terms of 12 months or less) and leases of low value assets.

In applying IFRS 16 for all leases, except as noted above, the Company (i) recognizes the ROU asset and lease liabilities in the statement of financial position, initially measured at the present value of future lease payments; (ii) recognizes the depreciation of ROU assets and interest on lease liabilities in the consolidated statement of comprehensive loss; and (iii) separates the total amount of cash paid into a principal portion (presented in financing activities) and interest (presented within operating activities) in the consolidated statement of cash flows. For short-term leases and leases of low value assets, the Company has opted to recognize a lease expense on a straight-line basis, and this expense is presented within office and miscellaneous in the consolidated statement of comprehensive loss.

The Company has made use of the following practical expedients available on transition to IFRS 16:

  • Measure the ROU assets equal to the lease liability calculated for each lease;
  • Apply the recognition exemptions for low value leases and leases that end within 12 months of the date of initial application, and account for them as low value and short-term leases, respectively; and
  • Accounting for non-lease components and lease components as a single lease component.

In transitioning to IFRS 16, the Company analyzed its contracts to identify whether they are or contain a lease arrangement. This analysis identified a contract containing a lease that had an equivalent increase to both the Company’s ROU assets and lease liabilities, which resulted in a $645,052 adjustment. The incremental borrowing rate for lease liabilities initially recognized on adoption of IFRS 16 was 10.10% .

The cumulative effect of the changes made to the consolidated statement of financial position as at January 1, 2019 for the adoption of IFRS 16 is as follows:

                As reported under  
    As previously     Effect of change in     new accounting  
    reported     accounting policy     policy  
Property and equipment $  1,302,884   $  645,052   $  1,947,936  
Lease liability (current)   -     (173,093 )   (173,093 )
Lease liability (non-current)   -     (471,959 )   (471,959 )
  $  1,302,884   $  -   $  1,302,884  

The operating lease obligations as at December 31, 2018 are reconciled as follows to the recognized lease liabilities as at January 1, 2019:

       
Operating lease obligations as at December 31, 2018 $  830,425  
Low value lease   (3,390 )
Effect from discounting at the incremental borrowing rate as at January 1, 2019   (181,983 )
Lease liabilities due to initial application of IFRS 16 at January 1, 2019 $  645,052  

New accounting policy for leases under IFRS 16

The Company assesses whether a contract is or contains a lease, at the inception of a contract. The Company recognizes a ROU asset and a corresponding lease liability with respect to all lease arrangements in which it is the lessee, at the commencement of the lease, with the following exceptions: (i) the Company has elected not to recognize ROU assets and liabilities for leases where the total lease term is less than or equal to 12 months, or (ii) for leases of low value. The payments for such leases are recognized in the consolidated statement of comprehensive loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

2.        SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Adoption of new accounting policy – leases (continued)

New accounting policy for leases under IFRS 16 (continued)

The ROU asset is initially measured based on the present value of lease payments, lease payments made at or before the commencement day, and any initial direct costs. They are subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. The ROU asset is depreciated over the shorter of the lease term or the useful life of the underlying asset. The ROU asset is subject to testing for impairment if there is an indicator of impairment.

The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date, discounted by using the rate implicit in the lease. If this rate cannot be readily determined, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate. Lease payments include fixed payments less any lease incentives, and any variable lease payments where variability depends on an index or rate. When the lease contains an extension or purchase option that the Company considers reasonably certain to be exercised, the cost of the option is included in the lease payments.

ROU assets are included in property and equipment, and the lease liability is presented as a separate line in the consolidated statement of financial position. Variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or rate are not included in the measurement of the ROU asset and lease liability. The related payments are recognized as an expense in the period in which the triggering event occurs and are included in the consolidated statement of comprehensive loss.

Lease liabilities

The Company leases office space and has one other lease which is considered a low value lease and as such is included in the statement of comprehensive loss and not the statement of financial position. Interest expense on the lease liabilities amounted to $44,692 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The Company did not incur any variable lease payments and there were no leases with residual value guarantees or leases not yet commenced to which the Company is committed. The expense relating to the low value lease amounted to $1,360 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

3.        EXPLORATION AND EVALUATION ASSETS

Title to mineral properties involves certain inherent risks due to the difficulties of determining the validity of certain claims as well as the potential for problems arising from the frequently ambiguous conveyancing history characteristic of many mineral properties. The Company has investigated title to all of its mineral properties and, to the best of its knowledge, titles to all of its properties are in good standing except as otherwise disclosed. However, this should not be considered as a guarantee of title. The mineral properties may be subject to prior claims or agreements, or transfers, and rights of ownership may be affected by undetected defects.

The exercise price of any option will be the market price of the Company's stock as at the date of the grant. The options can be granted for a maximum term of ten years with vesting determined by the Board of Directors.

8.        FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Financial instruments carrying value and fair value

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, amounts receivable, and accounts payable. The carrying value of amounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

The fair value hierarchy establishes three levels to classify the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs are quoted prices in markets that are not active, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (for example, interest rate and yield curves observable at commonly quoted intervals, forward pricing curves used to value currency and commodity contracts and volatility measurements used to value option contracts), or inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data or other means. Level 3 inputs are unobservable (supported by little or no market activity). The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs and the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents are measured using level 1 inputs.

The following table summarizes the classification and carrying values of the Company’s financial instruments:
