2 Basis of preparation

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, Interim Financial Reporting of International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IFRS"). These condensed interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020, which have been prepared in accordance with IFRS.

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements follow the same accounting policies and methods of application as the most recent audited consolidated financial statements of the Company.

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements were authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on November 2, 2021.

3 Significant accounting judgements and estimates

The preparation of these financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires judgements and estimates that affect the amounts reported. Those judgements and estimates concerning the future may differ from actual results. The following are the areas of accounting policy judgement and accounting estimates applied by management that most significantly affect the Company’s financial statements, including those areas of estimation uncertainty that could result in a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year.

COVID-19 estimation uncertainty
A global pandemic related to COVID-19 was declared by the World Health Organization in March 2020. The current and expected impacts on global commerce have been and are anticipated to continue to be far-reaching. To date, globally, there has been significant volatility in commodity prices and foreign exchange rates, restrictions on the conduct of business in many jurisdictions, including travel restrictions, and supply chain disruptions. There is significant ongoing global uncertainty surrounding COVID-19 and the extent and duration of the impact that it may have.

The areas of judgement and estimation uncertainty for the Company which may be impacted include estimates used to determine recoverable reserves and resources, estimates used to determine the recoverable amounts of long-lived assets, estimates used to determine the recoverable amounts of value-added tax receivables and estimates regarding deferred income taxes and valuation allowances. The impact of COVID-19 on the global economic environment, and the local jurisdictions in which the Company operates, could result in further changes to the way the Company runs its mines. These changes could result in revenues or costs being different from the Company's expectations. This impact could be material.

Mineral reserve and resource estimates

Mineral reserves are estimates of the amount of ore that can be economically and legally extracted from the Company’s mining properties. The Company estimates its mineral reserves and mineral resources based on information compiled by appropriately qualified persons relating to the geological data on the size, depth and shape of the ore body, and requires complex geological judgements to interpret the data. The estimation of recoverable reserves is based upon factors such as estimates of foreign exchange rates, commodity prices, future capital requirements, metallurgical recoveries, permitting and production costs along with geological assumptions and judgements made in estimating the size, and grade of the ore body. Changes in the reserve or resource estimates may impact the carrying value of mining interests, mine restoration provisions, recognition of deferred tax assets, depreciation and amortization charges and royalties receivable.

(Unaudited)
Impairment of long-lived assets

Long-lived assets are tested for impairment, or reversal of a previous impairment, if there is an indicator of impairment or a subsequent reversal. Calculating the estimated recoverable amount of cash generating units for long-lived assets requires management to make estimates and assumptions that include such factors as reserves and resources, future production levels, metallurgical recovery estimates, operating and capital costs, future metal prices and discount rates. Changes in any of these assumptions or estimates used in determining the recoverable amount could impact the analysis. Such changes could be material.

Value-added tax receivables

The Company incurs indirect taxes, including value-added tax, on purchases of goods and services at its operating mines and development projects. Indirect tax balances are recorded at their estimated recoverable amounts within current or long-term assets, net of provisions, and reflect the Company’s best estimate of their recoverability under existing tax rules in the respective jurisdictions in which they arise. Management’s assessment of recoverability considers the probable outcomes of claimed deductions and/or disputes. The provisions and balance sheet classifications made to date may be subject to change and such change may be material.

Uncertain tax positions

The Company’s operations involve the application of complex tax regulations in multiple international jurisdictions. Determining the tax treatment of a transaction requires the Company to apply judgement in its interpretation of the applicable tax law. These positions are not final until accepted by the relevant tax authority. The tax treatment may change based on the result of assessments or audits by the tax authorities often years after the initial filing.

The Company recognizes and records potential liabilities for uncertain tax positions based on its assessment of the amount, or range of amounts of tax that will be due. The Company adjusts these accruals as new information becomes available. Due to the complexity and uncertainty associated with certain tax treatments, the ultimate resolution could result in a payment that is materially different from the Company’s current estimate of the tax liabilities.

Current and deferred income taxes

The Company is periodically required to estimate the tax basis of assets and liabilities. Where applicable tax laws and regulations are either unclear or subject to varying interpretations, it is possible that changes in these estimates could occur that materially affect the amounts of deferred income tax assets and liabilities recorded in the financial statements. Changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities generally have a direct impact on earnings in the period that the changes occur.

Each period, the Company evaluates the likelihood of whether some portion or all of each deferred tax asset will not be realized. This evaluation is based on historic and future expected levels of taxable income and the associated repatriation of retained earnings, the pattern and timing of reversals of taxable temporary timing differences that give rise to deferred tax liabilities, and tax planning initiatives. Levels of future taxable income are affected by, among other things, metal prices, production costs, quantities of proven and probable gold reserves, interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. The availability of retained earnings for distribution depends on future levels of taxable income as well as future reclamation expenditures, capital expenditures, dividends and other uses of available cash flow.

Menankoto

The Company, through its Malian subsidiary Menankoto SARL (“Menankoto”), is currently involved in a dispute with the Malian Government related to renewal of the Menankoto exploration permit (the “Menankoto Permit”) which it had applied for a renewal of in early February 2021. The Company strongly believes that Menankoto is entitled to a one-year renewal of the Menankoto Permit under applicable law. After ongoing discussions with the Malian Government were not ultimately successful in resolving the situation, on June 24, 2021 the Company announced that it had formally commenced arbitration proceedings against the Republic of Mali. The arbitration has been commenced pursuant to the arbitration clause set out in the Menankoto mining convention (the “Convention”) governed by the 2012 Malian Mining Code (“2012 Mining Code”), on the basis that the Republic of Mali breached its obligations under the Convention and under the 2012 Mining Code. Based on the terms of the Convention, the arbitration will be conducted by the International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes in Paris, France. In addition to pursuing arbitration under the Convention, the Company may pursue, as required, all other available legal remedies.

The Company considered the non-renewal of the Menankoto Permit to be an indicator of impairment for its Menankoto Property, which had a carrying value of $33 million. The Company conducted an impairment analysis whereby the carrying value of the Menankoto Permit was compared to an estimate of its recoverable amount which was determined to be its fair

value less costs of disposal (“FVLCD”). FVLCD was determined based on the weighted-average probabilities of successful return of the Menankoto Permit through available legal remedies applied to a value of the property based on recent market transactions. The Company’s analysis concluded that the carrying value of the Menankoto exploration property was not impaired.

Kiaka

Subsequent to September 30, 2021, on October 25, 2021, the Company entered into a binding agreement with West African Resources Limited (“WAF”) (the “Kiaka Agreement”), pursuant to which B2Gold agreed to sell to WAF 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Volta Resources (Cayman) Inc., the holder of an 81% interest in the Kiaka gold project located in Burkina Faso (the “Kiaka Project”). Under the terms of the Kiaka Agreement, B2Gold will receive the following consideration (the “Kiaka Transaction”):
cash payment of $0.45 million paid on execution of the Kiaka Agreement;
$45 million payable on closing of the Kiaka Transaction, comprised of 50% cash and 50% in WAF ordinary shares;
$45 million payable on the earlier of (i) commencement of construction at the Kiaka Project (provided such date will be a minimum of 6 months from the date of the Kiaka Agreement), (ii) completion of a positive feasibility study at the Kiaka Project, and (iii) October 25, 2022, in cash or WAF ordinary shares, at B2Gold’s option but subject to any required WAF shareholder approval to issue WAF ordinary shares; and
2.7% net smelter return (“NSR”) royalty interest on the first 2,500,000 ounces of gold produced at the Kiaka Project, and a 0.45% NSR royalty interest on the next 1,500,000 ounces of gold produced at the Kiaka Project.

The closing of the Kiaka Transaction is subject to certain customary conditions, including completion of a transaction between WAF and GAMS-Mining F&I Ltd. (“GAMS”) pursuant to which WAF will acquire GAMS’ 9% interest in the Kiaka Project, and completion of the transaction under the Amended Toega Agreement (as defined below).

In accordance with IFRS 5 Non-current assets held for sale and discontinued operations, the Kiaka property meets the definition of an asset held-for-sale and has been accounted for as a disposal group held for sale at September 30, 2021. As a result, Kiaka property balances are presented as current assets held for sale (made up of $85 million of mineral property costs) and current liabilities held for sale (made up of $4 million of deferred income tax liabilities) on the Condensed Interim Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Toega

On April 28, 2020, the Company and its 10% partner GAMS entered into a definitive agreement with WAF for the sale of the Toega property located in Burkina Faso. As a result of the transaction, the Company's $9 million share of the non-refundable cash payment was credited to the carrying value of the mineral property and the remaining value of the Toega property of $12 million has been classified as an asset held for sale on the Condensed Interim Consolidated Balance Sheet at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

Subsequent to September 30, 2021, on October 25, 2021, the Company entered into an amended and restated purchase agreement with WAF and GAMS (the “Amended Toega Agreement”), pursuant to which B2Gold agreed to sell to WAF 100% of the shares of Kiaka Gold SARL, the holder of the Toega gold project located in Burkina Faso (the “Toega Project”)(the original transaction was structured as a sale of assets comprising the Toega Project) and GAMS will sell its 10% beneficial interest in the Toega Project. B2Gold holds a 90% beneficial interest in the Toega Project with GAMS holding the remaining 10%. Under the terms of the Amended Toega Agreement, B2Gold will receive cash payments of $18 million ($9 million of which has been received as outlined above), and on the first 1.5 million ounces of gold produced at the Toega Project, a 2.7% NSR royalty until such time as the royalty payments total $22.5 million and thereafter a 0.45% NSR royalty interest (the “Toega Transaction”). The closing of the Toega Transaction is subject to certain customary conditions. The parties expect the Toega Transaction to be completed by the end of November 2021.

Other - Kronk and BeMetals

On April 26, 2021, the Company closed the sale of the outstanding common shares of the Company's subsidiary Kronk Resources Inc. ("Kronk") to BeMetals Corp. ("BeMetals"). In exchange for its interest in Kronk, the Company received 16 million shares of BeMetals valued at $5 million. The gain on the sale of $1 million has been recorded in Other Operating Income in the Condensed Interim Consolidated Statement of Operations for the period. In connection with the transaction, the Company also purchased 17 million shares of BeMetals valued at Cdn. $0.44 per share for a total of $6 million by way of a non-brokered private placement.

Upon closing of the transactions, the Company held approximately 19% of the outstanding shares of BeMetals. As a result, the Company determined that, effective April 26, 2021, it has significant influence over the decision-making process of BeMetals as a result of its share ownership and having executives of the Company sit on BeMetals' Board of Directors. Therefore, the Company is using the equity basis of accounting to account for this investment and has included its investment in BeMetals in Mining Interests. The Company adjusts BeMetals financial results, where appropriate, to give effect to uniform accounting policies.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, approximately 19 million stock options were granted to employees with exercise prices ranging from Cdn. $4.34 to Cdn. $6.30 per share. These stock options have a term of up to five years and vest over a period of up to five years. The estimated fair value when granted of these options, totalling $23 million, is being recognized as a share-based payment expense over the vesting period. The fair value was calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model based on a risk-free annual interest rate of up to 0.6%, an expected life of approximately 3 years, an expected volatility of approximately 50% and a dividend yield rate of approximately 4%.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, share-based payments expense relating to the vesting of stock options, was $3 million and $10 million, respectively, (2020 - $1 million and $5 million, respectively).

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, share-based payments expense relating to the vesting of restricted share units ("RSUs") was $1 million and $4 million, respectively (2020 - $2 million and $5 million, respectively). During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company issued 2 million shares on the vesting of RSUs.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company granted 1 million RSUs to employees of the Company. One-third of the RSUs vest one year from the grant date, another third vest two years from the grant date with the remainder vesting three years from the grant date. The total estimated fair value of the RSUs granted was approximately $7 million based on the market value of the Company’s shares at the grant date. The fair value of each RSU is recorded as a share-based payments expense (and either charged to operations or capitalized to mining interests) over the vesting period.

As at September 30, 2021, 4 million RSUs were outstanding.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, share-based payments expense relating to the vesting of performance share units ("PSUs") was $1 million and $3 million, respectively (2020 - $0 million and $1 million, respectively).

During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company granted 1 million PSUs to employees of the Company. The number of shares to be issued will be 0% to 200% of the number of PSUs depending on total shareholder return compared to a group of peer companies over the period January 1, 2021 to December 31, 2023. The estimated fair value when granted of $7 million is being recognized over the vesting period. The fair value was calculated using a risk-neutral Monte Carlo simulation based on a correlated Geometric Brownian Motion. The model used historical share price volatility ranging from 32% to 99% for the group, a Canadian risk-free annual interest rate of 0.81%, and a United States risk-free annual interest rate of 0.35%.

As at September 30, 2021, 3 million PSUs were outstanding.

The fair value of the Company's fuel derivative contracts and interest rate swaps were determined using prevailing market rates for instruments with similar characteristics.

The fair value of the Company's long-term debt also approximates its carrying value as it has a floating interest rate and the Company's credit spread has remained approximately consistent. The fair value of the Company's other financial instruments approximate their carrying value due to their short-term nature.
