Vista Gold Corp. (NYSE American and TSX: VGZ) (“Vista” or the
“Company”) today announced its unaudited financial results for the
quarter ended June 30, 2023, with reported cash totaling $6.0
million. All dollar amounts in this news release are in U.S.
dollars.
The second quarter of 2023 was marked by the extension of
Vista’s agreement (the “Agreement”) with the Government (the “NT
Government”) of the Northern Territory of Australia (the “NT”),
which sets out the rights and obligations of both parties with
respect to site care and maintenance and potential future
development of the Company’s Mt Todd gold project (“Mt Todd”), and
positive recommendations and actions from the NT’s Mineral
Development Taskforce (“NT Taskforce”).
Frederick H. Earnest, President and Chief Executive Officer of
Vista, stated, “The extension of our Agreement with the NT
Government is an important achievement as we continue our
activities to de-risk Mt Todd and reflects a clear commitment by
the NT Government. Our amended Agreement extends the term to
December 31, 2029, with an option for an additional three-year
extension. We believe the amended Agreement demonstrates the
strength of our relationship with the NT Government and their
desire to achieve shared goals and objectives.
“Recent recommendations of the NT Taskforce aim to increase
mining investment in the NT. The NT Government is moving forward to
implement recommendations to update its current royalty regime to
make it more competitive with other leading mining jurisdictions
and to develop local skills to support a growing mining industry.
These initiatives demonstrate that the NT Government is actively
working to attract more mining-related investment. We believe these
changes will result in significant economic benefits for Vista,
other mining companies, and the NT.”
Summary of Financial Results
At June 30, 2023, cash and cash equivalents totaled $6.0 million
compared to $8.1 million at December 31, 2022. The Company
continued to have no debt.
Vista reported a consolidated net loss of $1.5 million, or $0.01
per common share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2023 compared to a
consolidated net loss of $1.4 million, or $0.01 per common share
for the quarter ended June 30, 2022. The loss for the current
quarter was in line with management’s expectations and reflects a
16% reduction of operating expenses compared to the same period in
the prior year, offset by lower non-recurring other income.
