2. Principal risks relating to the group

A table summarising the principal risks to the group is set out below, extracted in full unedited text from pages 70 to 75 of the annual report 2020. The risks set out below should not be regarded as a complete or comprehensive list of all potential risks and uncertainties that the group may face which could have an adverse impact on its performance. Additional risks may also exist that are currently unknown to the group and certain risks which are currently believed to be immaterial could turn out to be material and significantly affect the group's business and financial results.

 

Risk

Description

Mitigation/comments/ 2020 Progress

Potential impact / Change

Operational risks

Production risks and business interruption

The major risks which might have a significant impact on production capabilities are:

 

- The Amur Region is prone to a high risk of natural phenomena, including freezing, flooding and earthquakes.

- The failure of critical assets and long downtime.

- Geotechnical instability could lead to pit slope failure and the suspension of mining works.

- POX technology is complex and inherently dangerous due to the high operating temperature and pressure.

- Any major tailings incident might result in a mine operating on a limited basis due to regulatory interventions.

- Preventative maintenance procedures are undertaken on a regular basis to ensure that machines will function

properly under extreme cold weather conditions. Operational equipment is fitted with cold weather options.

- Management monitor natural conditions in order to pre-empt any disaster and come up with appropriate

mitigating action.

- The in-house R&D group companies are engaged to regularly monitor the technical and operational

conditions of key production facilities.

- Thorough routine maintenance procedures are scheduled and performed on a frequent basis for all equipment and facilities.

- Ongoing control of the planned/actual downtime of the production equipment and mining fleet and

scheduled downtime to prevent excessive load.

- The successful commissioning and further smooth build-up in production at the POX Hub has increased the group's expertise in pressure oxidation technology, reducing the risk of failure due to inexperience.

High / Stable

Logistic risks, supply shortages and price volatility

The group relies on the supply and availability of services and equipment to run its operations. The key supply management risks are:

 

- POX production depends upon third-party concentrate which might be subject to an increase in cost or decrease in availability.

- Higher electricity costs or interruption to power supply could have a material impact on the group's operations.

- The remote locations of the group's production sites could be a major bottleneck in the supply chain.

- High local inflation for major consumables and spares might cause an increase in operational costs in roubles (without a concurrent devaluation of the rouble against the US dollar).

- Long-term production forecasts and monthly reviews are in place to plan raw material demand and optimal supply schedules.

- Equipment is ordered in accordance with preapproved CAPEX project schedules and there is a contingency plan in place to prevent possible delays in delivery.

- The procurement function evaluates lead times and safety stock levels on a monthly basis.

- The group has increased stock levels for some key spares and consumables to prevent stockouts due to

COVID-related constraints.

High / Stable

Exploration

Exploration activities are speculative, time-consuming and can be unproductive. In addition, these activities often require substantial expenditure to establish reserves through drilling, metallurgical and other testing, to determine appropriate recovery processes to extract gold from the ore and to construct or expand mining and processing facilities. Once deposits are discovered it can take several years to determine whether reserves exist. During this time, the economic viability of production may change. As a result of these uncertainties, the exploration programmes in which the group is engaged may not result in the expansion or replacement of the current production with new reserves or operations.

- The group uses core drilling combined with modern geophysical and geochemical exploration and surveying techniques. The group employs an experienced team of geologists with considerable regional expertise and experience. They are supported by a network of fully accredited laboratories experienced in performing a

range of assay work to high standards.

- Group Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve estimates are prepared by a team of qualified specialists following

the guidelines of the JORC Code 2012. Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve estimates are subject to regular independent reviews and audits.

- The group employs a team of qualified mining engineers to undertake mine planning, detailed open pit and

underground mine design and production scheduling.

- There is more on the group's exploration programme at page 52.

High / Stable

Development and construction projects

Delays in commissioning (including late regulatory approvals) and capital expenditure overruns for key strategic and sustaining projects may affect the ability of the group to achieve strategic goals. Development and construction projects are considered increasingly important to the group's strategy.

- Management and the board are regularly updated on the progress, achievement of key milestones and risks

of projects to ensure they are delivered on time, on budget and in line with approved specifications.

- Investment evaluation and approval processes include rigorous review of geological, metallurgical and financial assumptions to forecast cash flows and key project output parameters.

- There is a project management control framework in place, with focus on management of project critical roles, equipment delivery deadlines, contractor management, HSE regulations, government permits and approvals.

- In-house construction and design companies with broad experience and an excellent track record of rampup of production facilities are engaged in project development.

Medium / Increasing

Financial risks

Gold price risks

The company's sales revenue is dependent on the price of one commodity over which it has no control and which over the longer-term has been very volatile and difficult to forecast. Open pit mining offers limited opportunity to recover higher grade ore in the event of substantially lower gold prices.

The group constantly monitors trends in the gold price and influencing factors. To reduce the negative impact of gold price volatility on cash flow and financial results, the following measures are applied:

- Commodity hedging;

- Operating and capital cost reductions; and

- Deleveraging and careful capital budgeting.

As at 31 December 2020, the group had commodities hedging which comprised zero cost collars with a gold price floor of $1,600/oz and a cap of $1,832/oz for 3,500oz maturing every month until December 2021.

High / Stable

Currency risks

The company's functional currency is US Dollars primarily dictated by the gold price being denominated in US dollars. At the same time, with operating assets being in Russia, the majority of capital and operating costs are rouble denominated.

- The group aims to limit its exposure to exchange rates in respect of its USD denominated debt by limiting cash held in non-USD currencies to amounts required to meet non-USD operating expenses.

- FX hedging is used to limit the impact of fluctuations in USD/RUB exchange rate.

- At 31 December 2020, the group had zero cost collars with a RUB:USD price floor of RUB75.00 and a cap in

the range of between RUB90.65 and RUB100.00 for US$7.0m maturing every month until December 2021.

- In the past year the rouble has depreciated which is favourable for the group as it sells a US dollar denominated product but bears its main operating costs in roubles.

Medium / Stable

Liquidity risks

The group needs access to funding and liquidity to service and refinance existing debt, support existing operations including sustaining capital needs and invest in new projects and exploration as and when these opportunities arise. As the repayment date of the 2022 notes approaches, the company must be in a position to re-finance its repayment obligations.

To mitigate liquidity risks the group:

- Maintains a detailed annual budget and five-year strategic plan with monthly & quarterly forecast updates;

- Prepares weekly treasury reports and one to three months' rolling cash flow forecasts and carefully manages cashflows; and

- Maintains close relationships with potential equity and debt providers and ensures additional sources of liquidity are available if required (including, without limitation, revolver credit facilities, forward sales funding,

etc).

The group is actively working on refinancing the 2022 notes. Please see page 54 for more information.

High / Increasing

IRC related risks

- Funds may be demanded from Petropavlovsk under a

guarantee provided in relation to project finance facilities provided to K&S, a wholly owned subsidiary of IRC.

- A delay in the commissioning of Sutara open pit of K&S mine may result in a decrease in K&S output and affect the value of the group's holding in IRC, and/or its ability to complete its disposal on commercially acceptable terms.

- A decrease in the price of iron ore could result in a

decrease in the value of the group's shareholding in IRC.

- The company has two representative directors on the board of IRC and is entitled to receive certain financial and other information from IRC on its performance and assets: factors designed to enable the company to monitor IRC's financial performance and prospects.

- Improvements in iron ore pricing in 2020 have significantly improved IRC's financial position.

- IRC has made payment of the fees due from it to the company in respect of the provision of the guarantee for

2020.

- The K&S operation has ramped-up close to full capacity.

Medium / Decreasing

Sustainability risks

Health and safety risks

Certain of the group's operations are carried out under

potentially hazardous conditions. Group employees may

become exposed to health and safety risks which may lead to

work-related accidents and harm to the group's employees.

These could also result in production delays and financial loss.

- Health and safety management systems are in place across the group which seek to ensure that the

operations are managed in accordance with the relevant health and safety regulations and requirements and, where possible, with international best practice.

- The group regularly reviews and updates its health and safety procedures to minimise the risk of accidents and improve accident response, including additional and enhanced technical measures at all sites, improved first aid response and the provision of further occupational, health and safety training.

- A new group Head of Health and Safety was appointed in early 2021 and is undertaking a review of the

group's health and safety capabilities and resources.

High / Increasing

Environment

If the group were to be involved in a major environmental event, such as but not limited to pollution, potential impacts could include fines and penalties, statutory liability for environmental redemption and other financial consequences that might be significant.

- The company operates a certified environmental management system at all its sites which is designed to

meet international standards.

- The company has implemented a number of initiatives to monitor and limit the impact of its operations on the environment.

- Cyanide and other dangerous substances are kept in secure storages with access limited to qualified

personnel and closely monitored by security staff.

High / Stable

New diseases and epidemics

(including COVID-19)

COVID-19 or other pandemics could have a significant impact on the group's business, threatening the health of employees and communities. An outbreak of the virus might result in the shutdown of the mines and plants.

The group has implemented measures in each production location and head office in line with published guidance. The key actions are, among others:

- The formation of an emergency response team; mines management monitor and approve all visits, including contractor work;

- The provision of PPE to protect employees (facemasks, face shields, gloves, glasses etc), 'no-touch' thermometers, placement of alcohol-based sanitizer dispensers and posters with information; disinfecting living and working areas daily;

- Furnishing medical facilities with necessary equipment and medication; testing of production employees

and contractors prior to their transfer to sites with strict quarantine rules; and

- Employees are encouraged to participate in free vaccination programmes.

High / Stable

Human resource risks

A lack of skilled employees and potential loss of key personnel could have negative impact on productivity, safety level and labour cost.

- There is an in-house educational capacity such as Pokrovskiy Mining College and on-site training arrangements;

- The group develops many HR initiatives such as career growth and succession programs, fair remuneration

and benefits, employee turnover rate review, employee retention strategies, ongoing university recruitment;

- The new CEO has stated improvements in employment retention to be one of his priorities for the coming year.

Medium / Stable

Country and regional risks

Legal & compliance risks

- Failure to comply with the requirements and terms of licences permitting exploration and mining may

result in the subsequent termination of operations and

reputational damage.

- Changes in laws concerning foreign investments, exploration and development, taxation, royalties, currency exchange, gold sales, environment, labour, repatriation of income and return of capital might

seriously impact the group's operations and financial

results.

- The group's business tends to be exposed to lawsuits

and claims from different counterparties.

- The group has appointed KPMG and PwC Advisory to

carry out reviews of certain transactions undertaken by

the group, including pursuant to Resolution 19. If this

investigatory work reveals that related party transactions have been entered into without proper authorisations and/or disclosures, there may be a risk of civil, criminal or regulatory actions or enquiries involving the group and penalties or other liabilities may accrue as a result.

- There are established processes in place to monitor the requirements of the existing licenses and permits

and to ensure compliance with such requirements on an on-going basis.

- The group has a long track record of operating in Russia, without significant claims of non-compliance with statutory or regulatory requirements in the territory.

- There are proactive compliance monitoring procedures in place to review any new legal initiatives and

changes to the current laws.

- In cases where the group considers that legal claims would result in a material impact to its financial

position an estimation of such impact is included in provisions to the financial statements.

- The investigatory work of KPMG and PwC Advisory is ongoing and will be kept under review and reported

as appropriate. A review of compliance and controls across the group is a priority for 2021.

High / Increasing

Political risks

- Sanctions introduced in 2014-2020 by the US and

EU against some Russian individuals and companies

increased political frictions and economic uncertainty.

- Further escalation of the sanction rhetoric might impose a risk to the group's operations.

- In particularly, potential changes to USA Export

administration regulations which control, among others,

the export of US-origin spare parts might have a negative impact on the group's ability to keep up with its equipment maintenance programmes.

- The group has been vigorously monitoring the process of development of the political situation. It also relies on the advice of external counsel in relation to the interpretation and implementation of new legislation.

- Sanctions imposed so far have neither had a negative impact on the group's operations nor on its key

stakeholders.

- The group keeps a safety stock of the crucial spare parts and is constantly seeking alternative suppliers

locally and around the world.

FINANCING TRANSACTIONS

Guarantee over IRC's external borrowings

The group historically entered into an arrangement to provide a guarantee over its associate's, IRC, external borrowings, the ICBC Facility ('ICBC Guarantee'). As at 31 December 2020 the remaining outstanding contractual guarantee fee was US$0.01 million, which had a corresponding fair value of US$0.01 million (31 December 2019: outstanding contractual guarantee fee of US$5.0 million with corresponding fair value after provision for credit losses of US$4.4 million). In March 2019, IRC has refinanced the ICBC Facility through entering into a US$240 million new facility with Gazprombank ('Gazprombank Facility'). The facility was fully drawn down during the year ended 31 December 2019.

 

A new guarantee was issued by the group over part of the Gazprombank Facility ('Gazprombank Guarantee'), the guarantee mechanism is implemented through a series of five guarantees that fluctuate in value through the eight-year life of the loan, with the possibility of the initial US$160 million principal amounts guaranteed reducing to US$40 million within two to three years, subject to certain conditions being met. For the final two years of the Gazprombank Facility, the guaranteed amounts will increase to US$120 million to cover the final principal and interest repayments. If certain springing recourse events transpire, including default on a scheduled payment, then full outstanding loan balance is accelerated and subject to the guarantee. The outstanding loan principal was US$204 million as at 31 December 2020 (31 December 2019: US$225 million). Under the Gazprombank Guarantee arrangements, the guarantee fee receivable is determined at each reporting date on an independently determined fair value basis, which for the years ended 31 December 2020 and 2019 was at the annual rate of 3.07% by reference to the average outstanding principal balance under Gazprombank Facility. The guarantee fee charged for 2020 was US$6.7 million, with corresponding value of US$6.3 million after provision for expected credit losses (31 December 2019: US$5.6 million, with corresponding value of US$5.0 million after provision for expected credit losses). As at 31 December 2020 the remaining outstanding contractual guarantee fee was US$12.3 million, with corresponding value of US$11.9 million after provision for expected credit losses (31 December 2019: US$5.6 million, with corresponding value of US$5.0 million after provision for expected credit losses).

 

The following assets and liabilities have been recognised in relation to the ICBC Guarantee and Gazprombank Guarantee as at 31 December 2020 and 31 December 2019:

(b) Amounts of guarantee fee that are expected to be received from IRC and calculated by applying annual rate of 3.07% for 2020 and 2019 by reference to the average outstanding principal balance under Gazprombank Facility for the relevant the period, less provision for ECL.

(c) Measured in accordance with ECL model: the amount of the loss allowance equals to 12-month ECL as it has been concluded that the credit risk on the financial guarantee contract has not increased significantly since initial recognition (note 3.1.).

(d) Classified as "held for sale" and presented separately in the statement of financial position as at 31 December 2020 (note 3.1.).

 

The results from relevant re-measurements of the aforementioned assets and liabilities were recognised within Other finance gains and losses and impairments of financial instruments (note 9).

 

 

Other financing transactions

In March 2018, the group entered into a loan agreement with Dr. Pavel Maslovskiy. As at 31 December 2020, the loan principal outstanding amounted to an equivalent of US$0.1 million, with corresponding value of US$nil after provision for expected credit losses (2019: US$0.2 million, with corresponding value of US$0.2 million after provision for expected credit losses). Interest charged during the year ended 31 December 2020 comprised an equivalent of US$0.01 million (2019: US$0.01 million). At 10 August 2020, Dr. Pavel Maslovskiy ceased to be a related party.

 

In April 2019, the group entered into a loan agreement with Dr. Alya Samokhvalova. As at 31 December 2020 the loan principal outstanding amounted to an equivalent of US$0.3 million, with corresponding value of US$nil after provision for expected credit losses (2019: US$0.4 million, with corresponding value of US$0.4 million after provision for expected credit losses). Interest charged during the year ended 31 December 2020 comprised an equivalent of US$0.03 million (2019: US$0.02 million). At 12 October 2020, Dr. Alya Samokhvalova ceased to be a related party.

 

INVESTING TRANSACTIONS

In May 2019, the group entered into the option contract to acquire the remaining non-controlling 25% interest in the subsidiary LLC TEMI from Agestinia Trading Limited, a non-controlling holder of 25% interest in LLC TEMI, for an aggregate consideration of US$60 million (adjusted to US$53.5 million if certain conditions are met). This represents a related party transaction as it is over the equity of a subsidiary company. The option premium payable is US$13 million, which was paid during the year ended 31 December 2019. The exercise period of the option is 730 days from 22 May 2019.

 

The group employed an independent third party expert to undertake the valuations of the underlying 25% interest in LLC TEMI and the call option. As at 31 December 2020, the fair value of the derivative financial asset was US$nil million (31 December 2019: US$11.0 million) reflecting a loss on re-measurement to fair value of US$(11.0) million (31 December 2019: US$(2.0) million loss) (note 18).

 

There are no other related party relationships with Agestinia Trading Limited present.
