Teranga's disclosure of mineral reserve and mineral resource information is governed by NI 43-101 under the guidelines set out in the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (the "CIM") Standards on Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves, adopted by the CIM Council, as may be amended from time to time by the CIM ("CIM Standards"). There can be no assurance that those portions of mineral resources that are not mineral reserves will ultimately be converted into mineral reserves. Teranga confirms that it is not aware of any new information or data that materially affects the information included in the technical reports for the Sabodala Project (August 30, 2017) and the Wahgnion Project (October 20, 2017) pursuant to National Instrument 43-101 - Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (the “Technical Reports”), or year end results, market announcements and, in the case of estimates of Mineral Resources, that all material assumptions and technical parameters underpinning the estimates in the relevant market announcements concerning the Technical Reports continue to apply and have not materially changed.

Non-IFRS Performance Measures
The Company has included non-IFRS measures in this document, including “total cash costs”, “total cash costs per ounce sold”, “all-in sustaining costs” (“AISC”), “AISC (excluding cash / (non-cash) inventory movements and amortized advanced royalty costs)”, “AISC per ounce”, “AISC (excluding cash / (non-cash) inventory movements and amortized advanced royalty costs) per ounce”, “earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization” (“EBITDA”), “free cash flow”, “adjusted net profit attributable to shareholders” and “adjusted basic earnings per share”. These measures are intended to provide additional information only and do not have any standardized meaning under IFRS and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. The measures are not necessarily indicative of operating profit or cash flow from
“Total cash costs” figures are calculated in accordance with a standard developed by The Gold Institute, which was a worldwide association of suppliers of gold and gold products and included leading North American gold
presented may not be comparable to other similarly titled measure of other companies. “Total cash costs per ounce sold” is a common financial performance measure in the gold mining industry but has no standard meaning under IFRS. The Company reports total cash costs on a sales basis. The World Gold Council (“WGC”) definition of AISC seeks to extend the definition of total cash costs by adding corporate general and administrative costs, reclamation and remediation costs (including accretion and amortization), exploration and study costs (capital and expensed), capitalized stripping costs and sustaining capital expenditures and represents the total costs of producing gold from current operations. AISC excludes income tax payments, interest costs, costs related to business acquisitions and items needed to normalize earnings. Consequently, this measure is not representative of all
Company’s overall profitability. The Company also expands upon the WGC definition of AISC by presenting an additional measure of “AISC (excluding cash / (non-cash) inventory movements and amortized advanced royalty costs)”. This measure excludes cash and non-cash inventory movements and amortized advanced royalty costs which management does not believe to be true cash costs and are not fully indicative of performance for the period. For Sabodala and Wahgnion, life of mine total cash costs and AISC figures used in this presentation are before cash/non-cash inventory movements and exclude any allocation of corporate overheads. Consolidated total cash costs and all-in sustaining cost figures add corporate overhead costs. “Average realized price” is a financial measure with no standard meaning under IFRS. Management uses this measure to better understand the price realized in each reporting period for gold and silver sales. Average realized price is calculated on revenue and ounces sold to all customers, except Franco-Nevada, as gold ounces sold to Franco-Nevada is recognized in revenue at 20 percent of the prevailing gold spot price on the date of delivery and 80 percent at $1,250 per ounce. The average realized price is intended to provide additional information only and does not have any standardized definition under IFRS; it should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. Other companies may calculate this measure differently. “EBITDA” excludes income tax, finance costs (before accretion expense), interest income, and depreciation and amortization from net profits. EBITDA is intended to provide additional information to investors and analysts and do not have any standardized definition under IFRS and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. Management believes that EBITDA is a valuable indicator of our ability to generate liquidity by producing operating cash flow to: fund working capital needs, service debt obligations, and fund capital expenditures. “Free cash flow” is calculated as net cash flow provided by operating activities less sustaining capital expenditures. The Company believes this to be a useful indicator of our ability generate cash for growth initiatives. Starting in 2018, the Company adopted “adjusted net profit attributable to shareholders” and “adjusted basic earnings per share” as new non-IFRS financial measures. These non-IFRS financial measures are used by management and investors to measure the underlying operating performance of the Company. Presenting these measures from period to period is expected to help management and investors evaluate earnings trends more readily in comparison with results from prior periods. The Company calculates “adjusted net profit attributable to shareholders” as net (loss)/profit attributable to shareholders adjusted to exclude specific items that are significant, but not reflective of the underlying operations of the Company, including: the impact of unrealized and realized foreign exchange gains and losses, gains and losses on derivative instruments, accretion expense on long-term
taxes and other non-cash fair value changes from adjusted net profit attributable to shareholders as management does not believe these factors to be reflective of the underlying performance of the Company. “Adjusted basic earnings per share” is calculated using the weighted average number of shares outstanding under the basic method of earnings per share as determined under IFRS For more information and the reconciliation of these measures, please refer to the Company’s latest management’s discussion and analysis accessible on the Company’s website at www.terangagold.com.
