(i) Reversal of impairment

As at September 30, 2024, the Company identified an indication of impairment reversal for the Young-Davidson CGU driven by an increase in long-term gold price assumptions and consistent with the assumptions utilized by the Company in its valuation of Argonaut, and performed an impairment assessment to determine the recoverable amount of the Young-Davidson CGU. The recoverable amount was determined to be greater than the carrying amount which resulted in a reversal of all previous impairments of $57.1 million excluding goodwill, which was recorded to mineral property, plant and equipment and an intangible asset.

The recoverable amounts of the Company’s CGUs are based primarily on the future after-tax cash flows expected to be derived from the Company’s mining properties and represent each CGU’s FVLCD, a Level 3 fair value measurement. The income valuation method represents the present value of future cash flows over the life of the asset using: (i) discrete financial forecasts, which rely on management’s estimates of reserve and resource quantities, costs to produce and develop reserves, revenues, and operating expenses; (ii) appropriate discount rates; and (iii) expected future capital requirements.

The Company's impairment assessment incorporated the following key assumptions:

Weighted average cost of capital

Projected cash flows were discounted using an after-tax discount rate of 5% which represented the Company’s weighted average cost of capital and which included estimates for risk-free interest rates, market value of the Company’s equity, market return on equity, share volatility and debt-to-equity financing ratio.

Gold price and CAD:USD foreign exchange assumptions

The gold price and foreign exchange assumptions used in the cash flow projections beyond three years are based on management's judgement, including consideration of historical volatility and consensus analyst pricing. These assumptions were as follows:


	2025 - 2027	Long-term
USD:CAD	1.35	1.33
Gold price ($)	2,120-2,300	1,950

(ii) Acquisition of Orford

On April 3, 2024, the Company acquired all the issued and outstanding common shares of Orford not previously owned by the Company, by way of a plan of arrangement (the "Orford Arrangement"). Upon closing, former Orford shareholders were issued 0.005588 Alamos common shares for each common share of Orford outstanding, excluding 61,660,902 Orford common shares, or 27.5% interest, held by the Company at April 3, 2024.

Upon closing of the transaction, the Company issued 908,689 shares as part of the consideration. Common shares issued were valued at the closing share price on April 3, 2024 of CAD $19.87. The total consideration for the acquisition was $20.7 million, including transaction costs of $1.0 million.

Management determined that the acquisition of Orford did not meet the definition of a business combination in accordance with IFRS 3 - Business Combinations. Accordingly, the Company has accounted for the transaction as an asset acquisition. The allocation of the purchase price to the net assets acquired are as follows:


Purchase price:
Fair value of total shares issued (Note 18)			$13.3
Fair value of 27.5% interest in Orford prior to acquisition			5.0
125,852 replacement warrants issued			0.8
93,958 replacement options issued			0.6
Transaction costs			1.0
Total consideration			$20.7

Net assets acquired
Cash and cash equivalents			$1.2
Mineral property, plant and equipment			21.1
Other assets			0.2
Accrued liabilities and other liabilities			(1.8)
			$20.7

The Orford mineral property has been recognized as part of the Corporate and Other reportable operating segment (Note 23).

The fair value on July 12, 2024 was determined using Argonaut's closing share price on July 12, 2024 of C$0.51; and foreign exchange ratio of USD/CAD: 1.3616.
