Interview with Serafino Iacono, Executive Chairman of Gran Colombia Gold (TSX: GCM)

One of the smartest, financially literate Gold teams we've ever
interviewed. Making money.

Serafino Iacono:
Well 20% of the debt, that was $150M debt, that was management.
It still is management. So management believes in this company and its
assets.
We have to find ways since the banks don't lend money, since the
Streaming is very expensive and everything.
We started thinking of what's the best way for us to finance.
We were actually were the first one in Canada that created
this kind of bond that we had.

Matthew Gordon:
Tell me about that?
I've marked them on here. I want to know.

Serafino Iacono:
It's a fantastic piece of paper. I mean we own it. We love it.
We do it in such a way that it's beneficial, instead of giving the
money to a bank, or giving the money to a Streaming.
We give it to our investors, because most of our shareholders
are the guys that own the bond.

Matthew Gordon: What are the terms on that?

Serafino Iacono:
The terms of the bond that we have, the only bond that we have,
it's an 8.5% coupon.
We cover the downside which is $1,250 Gold.
So we guarantee that you will get $1,250 Gold.
You get all the upside on the amount of money that was lent to us.
So in the case of this case, when we started the bond, was a $100M.
We're down to $68M in the first year.
We already paid a very large amount.

Matthew Gordon:
So what's the term? When is this going to be paid off?

Serafino Iacono:
It's going to be paid.. the terms is 2024, but we going to finish
paying in 2023.

Matthew Gordon:
No early redemption, no penalties?

Serafino Iacono:
No penalties and not because it's on the end of 2023.
But the paper is a fantastic paper, because it gives you
the coupon, steady coupon.
Interest get paid on a monthly basis, so it keeps that discipline.
And principle gets paid on a quarterly basis.
Plus on the quarterly basis, you get a kicker, if it's above $1,250.
And so it's a paper that gives you 11% return.
Every month, we set an amount of Gold aside in Scotia Bank and
at the end of every three months, we cash in the Gold.
We pay the principal.

For the first half of 2019, the Company produced a

Lombardo Paredes, Chief Executive Officer of Gran Colombia, commenting

The final phase of the expansion of
the Maria Dama plant to 1,500 tonnes per day (“tpd”)
was completed earlier this month, giving us the additional capacity
required to handle our expected near term growth.
In light of our first half results, we now feel confident in raising
our annual production guidance
for 2019 to between 225,000 and 240,000 ounces of gold.”

Segovia’s overall head grade returned to
an average of 16.8 g/t in the second quarter of 2019
compared with 17.3 g/t in the second quarter last year.
For the first half of 2019, the Segovia Operations produced
a total of 106,011 ounces of gold,
up 13% over the first half last year.

1,143 tpd in the first half of 2019,
up 18% over the first half last year,
at an average head grade of 17.8 g/t,
up from 16.7 g/t in the first half last year.

Segovia’s trailing 12 months’ total gold production at the end of
June 2019 has increased to 205,518 ounces,
up 6% over 2018’s annual production.
