Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 2018 and 2017

(Expressed in thousands of U.S. dollars)

Management’s Responsibility for Financial Reporting

The management of Eldorado Gold Corporation is responsible for the integrity and fair presentation of the
financial information contained in this annual report. Where appropriate, the financial information, including
consolidated financial statements, reflects amounts based on management’s best estimates and judgments.
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting
Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. Financial information presented
elsewhere in the annual report is consistent with that disclosed in the consolidated financial statements.

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting.
Management has established and maintains a system of internal accounting control designed to provide
reasonable assurance that assets are safeguarded from loss or unauthorized use, financial information is
reliable and accurate and transactions are properly recorded and executed in accordance with management’s
authorization. This system includes established policies and procedures, the selection and training of qualified
personnel and an organization providing for appropriate delegation of authority and segregation of
responsibilities. Any system of internal control over financial reporting, no matter how well designed, has
inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable
assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.

Management has a process in place to evaluate internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria
established by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013) in Internal
Control - Integrated Framework. Based on this assessment, Management determined that as at December 31,
2018, the Company had a material weakness in internal controls over financial reporting. As a result,
Management concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was not effective.

A material weakness is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, such that there is a
reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be
prevented or detected.

Specifically, effective controls were not maintained to ensure the consistent application of the mid-period
discounting convention used in the discounted cash flow models used by Management in the performance of its
impairment testing for goodwill and mining properties, plant and equipment as at December 31, 2018. The
impact of this omission has been corrected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year
ended December 31, 2018. Management’s assessment of the effectiveness of its internal control over financial
reporting is contained under the heading Internal Control over Financial Reporting in the Company’s
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for the year ended
December 31, 2018, and this material weakness is further described therein.

The Board of Directors oversees management’s responsibility for financial reporting and internal control
systems through an Audit Committee, which is composed entirely of independent directors. The Audit
Committee meets periodically with Management, the Company’s outside advisors and the independent auditors
to review the scope and results of the annual audit and to review the consolidated financial statements and
related financial reporting and internal control matters before the consolidated financial statements are
approved by the Board of Directors and submitted to the Company’s shareholders.
KPMG LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, appointed by the shareholders, has audited the
Company’s consolidated financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States) and has expressed their opinion in their report titled “Independent
Auditors’ Report of Registered Public Accounting Firm”. The effectiveness of the Company’s internal control
over financial reporting as at December 31, 2018 has also been audited by KPMG LLP, and their adverse
opinion is included in their report titled “Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm”.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of Eldorado Gold Corporation

Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position of Eldorado Gold Corporation
(the Company) as of December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the related consolidated statements of
operations, comprehensive loss, cash flows, and changes in equity for each of the years in the two-year period
ended December 31, 2018, and the related notes (collectively, the consolidated financial statements). In our opinion,
the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company
as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, and its financial performance and its cash flows for each of the years in the
two year period ended December 31, 2018, in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards as
issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United
States) (PCAOB), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2018, based on
criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring
Organizations of the Treadway Commission”, and our report dated February 21, 2019 expressed an adverse
opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Change in Accounting Principle

As discussed in note 5 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has changed its accounting policies
for revenue and financial instruments as of January 1, 2018 due to the adoption of IFRS 15 - Revenue from
Contracts with Customers and IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments.

Basis for Opinion

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility
is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting
firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required
to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable
rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are
free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess
the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and
performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence
regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating
the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for
our opinion.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of Eldorado Gold Corporation

Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We have audited Eldorado Gold Corporation’s (the Company) internal control over financial reporting as of
December 31, 2018, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the
Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. In our opinion, because of the effect of the
material weakness, described below, on the achievement of the objectives of the control criteria, the Company
has not maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2018, based on criteria
established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations
of the Treadway Commission.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United
States) (PCAOB), the consolidated statements of financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2018 and
December 31, 2017, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive loss, cash flows, and
changes in equity for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2018, and the related notes
(collectively, the consolidated financial statements), and our report dated February 21, 2019 expressed an
unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements.

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting,
such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial
statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. A material weakness related to the review and
approval of changes in discounting methodology in models used to evaluate impairment of goodwill and mining properties,
plant and equipment has been identified and included in management’s assessment. The material weakness was
considered in determining the nature, timing, and extent of audit tests applied in our audit of the 2018 consolidated
financial statements, and this report does not affect our report on those consolidated financial statements.

Basis for Opinion

The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and
for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying
report titled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Internal
Controls over Financial Reporting”. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control
over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are
required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and
the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

KPMG LLP is a Canadian limited liability partnership and a member firm of the KPMG network of independent member firms affiliated
with KPMG International Cooperative (“KPMG International”), a Swiss entity. KPMG Canada provides services to KPMG LLP.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting
was maintained in all material respects. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an
understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and
testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our
audit also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We
believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance
regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting
includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail,
accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable
assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made
only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable
assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s
assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.
Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become
inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures
may deteriorate.

Eldorado Gold Corporation
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
For the years ended December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017
(In thousands of U.S. dollars, unless otherwise stated)

1. General Information
Eldorado Gold Corporation (individually or collectively with its subsidiaries, as applicable, “Eldorado” or the
“Company”) is a gold mining, development, and exploration company. The Company has mining operations,
ongoing development projects and exploration in Turkey, Canada, Greece, Brazil, Romania and Serbia. In July
2017, the Company acquired Integra Gold Corporation (“Integra”), a Canadian mining company with mineral
assets in Quebec, Canada (note 6).
Eldorado is a public company listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) and the New York Stock Exchange
(“NYSE”) and is incorporated in the province of British Columbia, Canada.
The Company's head office, principal address and records are located at 550 Burrard Street, Suite 1188,
Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, V6C 2B5.

2. Basis of preparation
These consolidated financial statements, including comparatives, have been prepared in compliance with
International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards
Board (“IASB”). The significant accounting policies applied in these consolidated financial statements are
presented in note 3 and have been applied consistently to all years presented, unless otherwise noted.
Certain prior period balances have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation.
The consolidated financial statements were approved by the Company's Board of Directors on February 21,
2019.
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis except for certain financial
assets and liabilities which are measured at fair value.
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in compliance with IFRS requires management to
make certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise judgment in the process of
applying the Company's accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgment or complexity, or
areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the consolidated financial statements are disclosed
in note 4.

3. Significant accounting policies

Except as disclosed in note 5, the principal accounting policies are set out below and have been applied
consistently to all years presented in these consolidated financial statements, and have been applied
consistently by all Eldorado subsidiaries.
3.1 Basis of presentation and principles of consolidation
(i) Subsidiaries and business combinations
Subsidiaries are those entities controlled by Eldorado. Control exists when Eldorado is exposed to, or has
rights, to variable returns from the subsidiary and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over
the subsidiary. Power is defined as existing rights that give the Company the ability to direct the relevant
activities of the subsidiary. In assessing control, potential voting rights that currently are exercisable are taken
into account. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements
from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases. All intercompany transactions,
balances, income and expenses are eliminated in full upon consolidation.
The acquisition method of accounting is used to account for business acquisitions. The cost of an acquisition is
measured at the fair value of the assets acquired, equity instruments issued and liabilities incurred or assumed
at the date of exchange.
Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are
measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date, irrespective of the extent of any non-controlling
interest.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
For the years ended December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017
(In thousands of U.S. dollars, unless otherwise stated)

3. Significant accounting policies (continued)

The excess of the cost of acquisition over the fair value of Eldorado’s share of the identifiable net assets
acquired is recorded as goodwill. If the cost of acquisition is less than the fair value of the net assets acquired,
the difference, or gain, is recognised directly in the consolidated statement of operations.
Transaction costs, other than those associated with the issue of debt or equity securities, which the Company
incurs in connection with a business combination, are expensed as incurred.
The subsidiaries of the Company as at December 31, 2018 are described below:

(ii) Discontinued operations

A discontinued operation is a component of the Company’s business that represents a separate major line of
business or geographical area of operations that has been disposed of, has been abandoned or meets the
criteria to be classified as held for sale.
Discontinued operations are presented in the consolidated statement of operations as a separate line.
(iii) Assets held for sale
Assets and businesses classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of carrying amount and fair value
less costs to sell. Impairment losses on initial classification as held for sale and gains or losses on subsequent
re-measurements are included in the consolidated statement of operations. No depreciation is charged on
assets and businesses classified as held for sale.
Assets and businesses are classified as held for sale if their carrying amount will be recovered or settled
principally through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use. The asset or business must be
available for immediate sale and the sale must be highly probable within one year.
(iv) Investments in associates
Associates are those entities where Eldorado has the ability to exercise significant influence, but not control,
over the financial and operating policies of those entities. Significant influence is presumed to exist when the
Company holds between 20 and 50 percent of the voting power of another entity.
Associates are accounted for using the equity method (equity accounted investees) and are recognized initially
at cost. The consolidated financial statements include Eldorado’s share of the income and expenses and
equity movements of equity accounted investees, after adjustments to align the accounting policies with those
of Eldorado, from the date that significant influence commences until the date that significant influence ceases.

(In thousands of U.S. dollars, unless otherwise stated)

3. Significant accounting policies (continued)

When the Company’s share of losses exceeds its interest in an equity accounted investee, the carrying
amount of that interest (including any long-term investments) is reduced to nil and the recognition of further
losses is discontinued except to the extent that the Company has an obligation to make, or has made,
payments on behalf of the investee.
At each balance sheet date, each investment in associates is assessed for indicators of impairment.
(v) Transactions with non-controlling interests
For purchases from non-controlling interests, the difference between any consideration paid and the relevant
share of the carrying value of net assets of the subsidiary acquired is recorded in equity. Gains or losses on
disposals to non-controlling interests are also recorded in equity.
Eldorado treats transactions in the ordinary course of business with non-controlling interests as transactions
with third parties.
(vi) Transactions eliminated on consolidation
Intra-company and intercompany balances and transactions, and any unrealized income and expenses arising
from all such transactions, are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements.
3.2 Foreign currency translation
(i) Functional and presentation currency
Items included in the financial statements of each of Eldorado’s entities are measured using the currency of
the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (the functional currency). The consolidated
financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars, which is the Company’s functional and presentation
currency, as well as the functional currency of all significant subsidiaries.
(ii) Transactions and balances
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at
the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the reporting
date are translated to the functional currency at the exchange rate at that date. Foreign exchange gains and
losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions, and from the translation of monetary assets and
liabilities denominated in foreign currencies, are recognised in the consolidated statement of operations.
3.3 Property, plant and equipment
(i) Cost and valuation
Property, plant and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and any impairment in value.
When an asset is disposed of, it is derecognized and the difference between its carrying value and net sales
proceeds is recognized as a gain or loss in the consolidated statement of operations.
(ii) Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment includes expenditures incurred on properties under development, significant
payments related to the acquisition of land, mineral rights and property, plant and equipment which are
recorded at cost on initial acquisition. Cost includes the purchase price and the directly attributable costs of
acquisition or construction required to bring an asset to the location and condition necessary for the asset to be
capable of operating in the manner intended by management, including capitalized borrowing costs for
qualifying assets.
(iii) Depreciation
Mine development costs, property, plant and equipment and other mining assets whose estimated useful life is
the same as the remaining life of the mine are depreciated, depleted and amortized over a mine’s estimated
life using the units-of-production method calculated based on proven and probable reserves.

For the years ended December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017
(In thousands of U.S. dollars, unless otherwise stated)

3. Significant accounting policies (continued)

Capitalized development costs related to a multi-pit operation are amortized on a pit-by-pit basis over the pit’s
estimated life using the units-of-production method calculated based on proven and probable reserves related
to each pit.
Property, plant and equipment and other assets whose estimated useful lives are less than the remaining life of
the mine are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets.
Where components of an asset have a different useful life and cost that is significant to the total cost of the
asset, depreciation is calculated on each separate component.
Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at the end of each year and adjusted if
appropriate.
(iv) Subsequent costs
Expenditure on major maintenance or repairs includes the cost of replacement parts of assets and overhaul
costs. Where an asset or part of an asset is replaced and it is probable that further future economic benefit will
flow to the Company, the expenditure is capitalized. Similarly, overhaul costs associated with major
maintenance are capitalized when it is probable that future economic benefit will flow to the Company and any
remaining costs of previous overhauls relating to the same asset are derecognized. All other expenditures are
expensed as incurred.
(v) Deferred stripping costs
Stripping costs incurred during the production phase of a mine are considered production costs and included in
the cost of inventory produced during the period in which the stripping costs are incurred, unless the stripping
activity can be shown to provide access to additional mineral reserves, in which case the stripping costs are
capitalized. Stripping costs incurred to prepare the ore body for extraction are capitalized as mine development
costs (pre-stripping). Capitalized stripping costs are amortized on a unit-of-production basis over the proven
and probable reserves to which they relate.
(vi) Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs are expensed as incurred except where they are attributable to the financing of construction or
development of qualifying assets requiring a substantial period of time to prepare for their intended future use.
Interest is capitalized up to the date when substantially all the activities necessary to prepare the asset for its
intended use are complete. Interest is ceased to be capitalized during periods of prolonged suspension of
construction or development.
Investment income arising on the temporary investment of proceeds from borrowings is offset against
borrowing costs being capitalized.
(vii) Mine standby costs and restructuring costs
Mine standby costs and costs related to restructuring a mining operation are charged directly to expense in the
period incurred. Mine standby costs include labour, maintenance and mine support costs incurred during
temporary shutdowns of a mine or a development project.
3.4 Exploration, evaluation and development expenditures
(i) Exploration
Exploration expenditures reflect the costs related to the initial search for mineral deposits with economic
potential or obtaining more information about existing mineral deposits. Exploration expenditures typically
include costs associated with the acquisition of mineral licenses, prospecting, sampling, mapping, diamond
drilling and other work involved in searching for mineral deposits. All expenditures relating to exploration
activities are expensed as incurred except for the costs associated with the acquisition of mineral licenses
which are capitalized.

3. Significant accounting policies (continued)

(ii) Evaluation
Evaluation expenditures reflect costs incurred at projects related to establishing the technical and commercial
viability of mineral deposits identified through exploration or acquired through a business combination or asset
acquisition.
Evaluation expenditures include the cost of:
a) establishing the volume and grade of deposits through drilling of core samples, trenching and sampling
activities for an ore body that is classified as either a mineral resource or a proven and probable reserve;
b) determining the optimal methods of extraction and metallurgical and treatment processes;
c) studies related to surveying, transportation and infrastructure requirements;
d) permitting activities; and
e) economic evaluations to determine whether development of the mineralized material is commercially
viable, including scoping, prefeasibility and final feasibility studies.
Evaluation expenditures are capitalized if management determines that there is evidence to support probability
of generating positive economic returns in the future. A mineral resource is considered to have economic
potential when it is expected the technical feasibility and commercial viability of extraction of the mineral
resource is demonstrable considering long-term metal prices. Therefore, prior to capitalizing such costs,
management determines that the following conditions have been met:
There is a probable future benefit that will contribute to future cash inflows;
The Company can obtain the benefit and control access to it; and
The transaction or event giving rise to the benefit has already occurred.
The evaluation phase is complete once technical feasibility of the extraction of the mineral deposit has been
determined through preparation of a reserve and resource statement, including a mining plan as well as receipt
of required permits and approval of the Board of Directors to proceed with development of the mine.
(iii) Development
Development expenditures are those that are incurred during the phase of preparing a mineral deposit for
extraction and processing. These include pre-stripping costs and underground development costs to gain
access to the ore that is suitable for sustaining commercial mining, preparing land, construction of plant,
equipment and buildings and costs of commissioning the mine and mill. It also includes proceeds received
from pre-commercial production.
Expenditures incurred on development projects continue to be capitalized until the mine and mill move into the
production stage. The Company assesses each mine construction project to determine when a mine moves
into the production stage. The criteria used to assess the start date are determined based on the nature of
each mine construction project, such as the complexity of a plant or its location. Various relevant criteria are
considered to assess when the mine is substantially complete and ready for its intended use and moved into
the production stage. Some of the criteria considered would include, but are not limited to, the following:
(1) the level of capital expenditures compared to construction cost estimates;
(2) the completion of a reasonable period of testing of mine plant and equipment;
(3) the ability to produce minerals in saleable form (within specification); and
(4) the ability to sustain ongoing production of minerals.
Alternatively, if the factors that impact the technical feasibility and commercial viability of a project change and
no longer support the probability of generating positive economic returns in the future, expenditures will no
longer be capitalized.

3.5 Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of an acquisition over the fair value of the Company’s share of the
net assets of the acquired business at the date of acquisition. When the excess is negative (negative goodwill),
it is recognized immediately in income. Goodwill on acquisition of subsidiaries and businesses is shown
separately as goodwill in the consolidated financial statements. Goodwill on acquisition of associates is
included in investments in significantly influenced companies and tested for impairment as part of the overall
investment.
Goodwill is carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses and tested annually for impairment. Impairment
losses on goodwill are not reversed. The impairment testing is performed annually or more frequently if events
or changes in circumstances indicate that it may be impaired.
Goodwill is allocated to cash-generating units (“CGUs") for the purpose of impairment testing. The allocation is
made to those CGUs or groups of CGUs that are expected to benefit from the business combination in which
the goodwill arose. If the composition of one or more CGUs to which goodwill has been allocated changes due
to a re-organization, the goodwill is re-allocated to the units affected.
The gain or loss on disposal of an entity includes the carrying amount of goodwill relating to the entity sold.
3.6 Impairment of non-financial assets
Other long-lived assets are reviewed each reporting period for impairment whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If such indicators exist, an
impairment test is performed.
An impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable
amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less cost of disposal ("FVLCD") and
value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which
there are separately identifiable cash flows or CGUs.
Value in use is determined as the present value of the future cash flows expected to be derived from an asset
or CGU based on the detailed mine and/or production plans. The estimated future cash flows are discounted to
their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of
money and the risks specific to the asset.
FVLCD is the amount obtainable from the sale of an asset or CGU in an arm’s length transaction between
knowledgeable, willing parties, less the costs of disposal. For mining assets, FVLCD is often estimated using a
discounted cash flow approach because a fair value is not readily available from an active market or binding
sale agreement. Estimated future cash flows are calculated using estimated future prices, mineral reserves
and resources, operating and capital costs. All assumptions used are those that an independent market
participant would consider appropriate.
Non-financial assets other than goodwill impaired in prior periods are reviewed for possible reversal of the
impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that an item of mineral property and equipment
or CGU is no longer impaired.

3. Significant accounting policies (continued)

3.7 Financial assets
(i) Classification and measurement
The Company classifies its financial assets in the following categories: at fair value through profit or loss
(“FVTPL”), at fair value through other comprehensive income (“FVTOCI”) or at amortized cost. The
classification depends on the purpose for which the financial assets were acquired. Management determines
the classification of its financial assets at initial recognition.
The classification of investments in debt instruments is driven by the business model for managing the
financial assets and their contractual cash flow characteristics. Investments in debt instruments are measured
at amortized cost if the business model is to hold the instrument for collection of contractual cash flows and
those cash flows are solely principal and interest. If the business model is not to hold the debt instrument, it is
classified as FVTPL. Financial assets with embedded derivatives are considered in their entirety when
determining whether their cash flows are solely payments of principal and interest.
Equity instruments that are held for trading (including all equity derivative instruments) are classified as
FVTPL. For other equity instruments, on the day of acquisition the Company can make an irrevocable election
(on an instrument-by-instrument basis) to designate them as FVTOCI.
(a) Financial assets at FVTPL
Financial assets carried as FVTPL are initially recorded at fair value with all transaction costs expensed in the
consolidated statement of operations. Realized and unrealized gains and losses arising from changes in the
fair value of the financial asset held at FVTPL are included in the consolidated statement of operations in the
period in which they arise. Derivatives are also categorised as FVTPL unless they are designated as hedges.
(b) Financial assets at FVTOCI
Investments in equity instruments as FVTOCI are initially recognized at fair value plus transaction costs.
Subsequently they are measured at fair value, with gains and losses arising from changes in fair value
recognized in other comprehensive income. There is no subsequent reclassification of fair value gains and
losses to profit or loss following the derecognition of the investment.
(c) Financial assets at amortized cost
Financial assets at amortized cost are initially recognized at fair value and subsequently carried at amortized
cost less any impairment.
(ii) Impairment of financial assets
The Company recognizes a loss allowance for expected credit losses on financial assets that are measured at
amortized cost. At each reporting date, the loss allowance for the financial asset is measured at an amount
equal to the lifetime expected credit losses if the credit risk on the financial asset has increased significantly
since initial recognition. If at the reporting date, the credit risk on the financial asset has not increased
significantly since initial recognition, the loss allowance is measured for the financial asset at an amount equal
to twelve month expected credit losses. For trade receivables the Company applies the simplified approach to
providing for expected credit losses, which allows the use of a lifetime expected loss provision.
Impairment losses on financial assets carried at amortized cost are reversed in subsequent periods if the
amount of the loss decreases and the decrease can be objectively related to an event occurring after the
impairment was recognized.
(iii) Derecognition of financial assets
Financial assets are derecognized when they mature or are sold, and substantially all the risks and rewards of
ownership have been transferred. Gains and losses on derecognition of financial assets classified as FVTPL or
amortized cost are recognized in the consolidated statement of operations. Gains or losses on financial assets
classified as FVTOCI remain within accumulated other comprehensive income.

3. Significant accounting policies (continued)

3.8 Derivative financial instruments and hedging activities
Derivatives are recognized initially at fair value on the date a derivative contract is entered into. Subsequent to
initial recognition, derivatives are remeasured at their fair value. The method of recognising any resulting gain
or loss depends on whether the derivative is designated as a hedging instrument and, if so, the nature of the
item being hedged.
Changes in the fair value of any derivative instruments that do not qualify for hedge accounting are recognised
immediately in the consolidated statement of operations.
(a) Fair value hedge
Changes in the fair values of derivatives that are designated and qualify as fair value hedges are recorded in
the consolidated statement of operations, together with any changes in the fair values of the hedged assets or
liabilities that are attributable to the hedged risk.
(b) Cash-flow hedge
The effective portions of changes in the fair values of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash-flow
hedges are recognised in equity. The gain or loss relating to any ineffective portion is recognised immediately
in the consolidated statement of operations.
Amounts accumulated in the hedge reserve are recycled in the consolidated statement of operations in the
periods when the hedged items will affect profit or loss (for instance when the forecast sale that is hedged
takes place). If a forecast transaction that is hedged results in the recognition of a non-financial asset (for
example, inventory) or a liability, the gains and losses previously deferred in the hedge reserve are included in
the initial measurement of the cost of the asset or liability.
When a hedging instrument expires or is sold, or when a hedge no longer meets the criteria for hedge
accounting, any cumulative gain or loss existing in the hedge reserve at that time remains in the reserve and is
recognised when the forecast transaction is ultimately recognised in the consolidated statement of operations.
When a forecast transaction is no longer expected to occur, the cumulative gain or loss that was reported in
other comprehensive income is immediately transferred to the consolidated statement of operations.
The Company has not designated any derivative contracts as hedges and therefore has not applied hedge
accounting in these consolidated financial statements.
3.9 Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Costs incurred in bringing each product to
its present location and condition are accounted for as follows:
i) Product inventory consists of stockpiled ore, ore on leach pads, crushed ore, in-circuit material at
properties with milling or processing operations, gold concentrate, other metal concentrate, iron ore
stockpile awaiting shipment, doré awaiting refinement and unsold bullion. Product inventory costs consist
of direct production costs including mining, crushing and processing; site administration costs; and
allocated indirect costs, including depreciation and amortization of mineral property, plant and equipment.
Inventory costs are charged to production costs on the basis of quantity of metal sold. At operations
where the ore extracted contains significant amounts of metals other than gold, primarily silver, copper,
lead and zinc, cost is allocated between the joint products. The Company regularly evaluates and refines
estimates used in determining the costs charged to production costs and costs absorbed into inventory
carrying values based upon actual gold recoveries and operating plans.
Net realizable value is the estimated selling price, less the estimated costs of completion and selling
expenses.
ii) Materials and supplies inventory consists of consumables used in operations, such as fuel, chemicals,
reagents and spare parts, which are valued at the lower of average cost and net realisable value and,
where appropriate, less a provision for obsolescence. Costs include acquisition, freight and other directly
attributable costs.

3. Significant accounting policies (continued)

3.10 Trade receivables
Trade receivables are amounts due from customers for the sale of bullion and metals in concentrate in the
ordinary course of business.
Trade receivables are recognized initially at fair value and subsequently at amortized cost using the effective
interest rate method. Trade receivables are recorded net of lifetime expected credit losses.
Settlement receivables arise from the sale of metals in concentrate. Settlement receivables are classified as
fair value through profit and loss and are recorded at fair value at each reporting period. Changes in fair value
of settlements receivable are recorded in revenue.
3.11 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks and other short-term highly
liquid investments with maturities at the date of acquisition of three months or less. Bank overdrafts are shown
within borrowings in current liabilities on the consolidated statement of financial position.
3.12 Share capital
Common shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of common shares
and share options are recognized as a deduction from equity, net of any tax effects. Common shares held by
the Company are classified as treasury stock and recorded as a reduction of shareholders’ equity.
3.13 Trade payables
Trade payables are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of
business from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year
or less (or in the normal operating cycle of the business if longer). If not, they are presented as non-current
liabilities.
Trade payables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the
effective interest method.
3.14 Debt and borrowings
Borrowings are recognised initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently
carried at amortised cost, calculated using the effective interest method. Any difference between the proceeds
(net of transaction costs) and the redemption value is recognised in the consolidated statement of operations
over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method.
Fees paid on the establishment of loan facilities and other borrowings are recognised as transaction costs of
the loan to the extent that it is probable that some or all of the facility and other borrowings will be drawn down.
In this case, the fee is deferred until the draw-down occurs. To the extent there is no evidence that it is
probable that some or all of the facility and borrowings will be drawn down, the fee is capitalised as a pre-
payment for liquidity services and amortised over the period of the loan to which it relates.
3.15 Current and deferred income tax
Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax expense is recognized in the consolidated
statement of operations except to the extent that it relates to items recognized either in other comprehensive
income or directly in equity, in which case it is recognized in other comprehensive income or in equity,
respectively.
Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or
substantively enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years.
Taxes on income in the interim periods are accrued using the tax rate that would be applicable to expected
total annual earnings. The tax rate used is the rate that is substantively enacted.

(In thousands of U.S. dollars, unless otherwise stated)

3. Significant accounting policies (continued)

Deferred income tax is recognised on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and
liabilities and their carrying amounts in the consolidated financial statements. However, deferred income tax is
not recorded if it arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business
combination that at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss. Deferred
income tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the
balance sheet date and are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax asset is realised or the
deferred income tax liability is settled.
A deferred tax asset is recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available
against which the temporary difference can be utilized. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting
date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized.
3.16 Employee benefits
(i) Defined benefit plans
Certain employees have entitlements under Company pension plans which are defined benefit pension plans.
For defined benefit plans, the level of benefit provided is based on the length of service and earnings of the
person entitled.
The cost of the defined benefit plan is determined using the projected unit credit method. The related pension
liability recognized in the consolidated statement of financial position is the present value of the defined benefit
obligation at the balance sheet date less the fair value of plan assets.
The Company obtains actuarial valuations for defined benefit plans for each balance sheet date. Actuarial
assumptions used in the determination of defined benefit pension plan liabilities are based on best estimates,
including rate of salary escalation and expected retirement dates of employees. The discount rate is based on
high quality bond yields. The assumption used to determine the interest income on plan assets is equal to the
discount rate.
Actuarial gains and losses are recognized in full in the period in which they occur in other comprehensive
income without recycling to the consolidated statement of operations in subsequent periods. Current service
cost, the vested element of any past service cost, the interest income on plan assets and the interest arising
on the pension liability are included in the same line items in the consolidated statement of operations or other
comprehensive income as the related compensation cost.
Past service costs are recognized immediately to the extent the benefits are vested, and otherwise are
amortized on a straight-line basis over the average period until the benefits become vested.
(ii) Defined contribution plans
The Company’s contributions to defined contribution plans are charged to the consolidated statement of
operations in the period to which the contributions relate.
(iii) Termination benefits
Eldorado recognizes termination benefits when it is demonstrably committed to either terminating the
employment of current employees according to a detailed formal plan without possibility of withdrawal, or
providing benefits as a result of an offer made to encourage voluntary termination. Benefits falling due more
than twelve months after the end of the reporting period are discounted to their present value.
(iv) Short-term benefits
Short-term employee benefit obligations are measured on an undiscounted basis and are expensed as the
related service is provided. A liability is recognized for the amount expected to be paid under short-term cash
bonus or profit-sharing plans if the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount
as a result of past service provided by the employee and the obligation can be estimated reliably.

3. Significant accounting policies (continued)

3.17 Share-based payment transactions
The Company applies the fair value method of accounting for all stock option awards and equity settled
restricted share units and performance share units. Under this method the Company recognizes a
compensation expense for all stock options awarded to employees, based on the fair value of the options on
the date of grant which is determined by using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. For equity settled
restricted share units, compensation expense is recognized based on the quoted market value of the shares.
For equity settled performance share units, compensation expense is recognized based on the fair value of the
shares on the date of grant which is determined by a valuator.
The fair value of the options, restricted share units and performance share units are expensed over the vesting
period of the awards with a corresponding increase in equity. No expense is recognized for awards that do not
ultimately vest. Deferred share units are liability awards settled in cash accounted for at the quoted market
price at the grant date with the corresponding liability is marked to market at each subsequent reporting date.
3.18 Provisions
A provision is recognized if, as a result of a past event, the Company has a present legal or constructive
obligation that can be estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required
to settle the obligation. They are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate
that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability.
Rehabilitation and restoration
A provision is made for mine rehabilitation and restoration when an obligation is incurred. The provision is
recognised as a liability with a corresponding asset recognised in relation to the mine site. At each reporting
date the rehabilitation liability is re-measured in line with changes in discount rates, and timing or amount of
the costs to be incurred. The rehabilitation liability is classified as an ‘Asset retirement obligation’ on the
consolidated statement of financial position.
The provision recognised represents management’s best estimate of the present value of the future costs
required. Significant estimates and assumptions are made in determining the amount of restoration and
rehabilitation provisions. Those estimates and assumptions deal with uncertainties such as: requirements of
the relevant legal and regulatory frameworks, the magnitude of necessary remediation activities and the timing,
extent and costs of required restoration and rehabilitation activity.
These uncertainties may result in future actual expenditure differing from the amounts currently provided. The
provision recognised is periodically reviewed and updated based on the facts and circumstances available at
the time. Changes to the estimated future costs for operating sites are recognised in the consolidated
statement of financial position by adjusting both the restoration and rehabilitation asset and provision. Such
changes give rise to a change in future depreciation and financial charges.
3.19 Revenue recognition
Revenue is generated from the sale of bullion and metals in concentrate. The Company produces doré, gold
concentrate and other metal concentrates. The Company’s performance obligations relate primarily to the
delivery of these products to customers, with each shipment representing a separate performance obligation.
Revenue from the sale of bullion and metals in concentrates is recognized at the point the customer obtains
control of the product. Control is transferred when title has passed to the purchaser, the product is physically
delivered to the customer, the customer controls the risks and rewards of ownership and the Company has a
present right to payment for the product.

3. Significant accounting policies (continued)

(i) Metals in concentrate
Control over metals in concentrates is transferred to the customer and revenue is recognized upon the placing
of the material on board the vessel for shipment which is when the product is considered to be physically
delivered to the customer under the terms of the customer contract.
Metals in concentrate are sold under pricing arrangements where final prices are determined by market prices
subsequent to the date of sale (the “quotational period”). Revenue from concentrate sales is recorded based
on the estimated amounts to be received, based on the respective metals forward price at the expected
settlement date. Adjustments are made to settlements receivable in subsequent periods based on fluctuations
in the forward prices until the date of final metal pricing. These subsequent changes in the fair value of the
settlements receivable are recorded in revenue separate from revenue from contracts with customers.
Provisional invoices for metals in concentrate sales are typically issued for 80 - 90% of the estimated total
value shortly after or on the passage of control of the product to the customer. Additional invoices are issued
as final product weights and assays are determined over the quotational period. Provisionally invoiced
amounts are generally collected promptly.
(ii) Metals in doré
The refiners who receive doré from the Company, refine the materials on the Company’s behalf and arrange
for sale of the refined metal on the Precious Metal Market of the Borsa Istanbul, formerly “Istanbul Gold
Exchange”. Control over the refined gold or silver produced from doré is transferred to the customer and
revenue recognized upon delivery to the customer’s bullion account on the Precious Metal Market of the
Borsa Istanbul.
Refined metals are sold at spot prices on the Precious Metal Market of the Borsa Istanbul. Sales proceeds
are collected within several days of the completion of the sale transaction.
3.20 Finance income and expenses
Finance income comprises interest income on funds invested (including financial assets carried at FVTPL) and
changes in the fair value of financial assets at FVTPL. Interest income is recognized as it accrues in profit or
loss, using the effective interest method.
Finance expenses comprise interest expense on borrowings, unwinding of the discount on provisions, changes
in the fair value of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and impairment losses recognized on
financial assets. All borrowing costs are recognized in profit or loss using the effective interest method, except
for those amounts capitalized as part of the cost of qualifying property, plant and equipment.
3.21 Earnings (loss) per share
The Company presents basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) data for its common shares. Basic EPS is
calculated by dividing the earnings or loss attributable to common shareholders of the Company by the
weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is determined by
adjusting the earnings or loss attributable to common shareholders and the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding for the effects of all dilutive potential common shares, which comprise warrants
and share options granted to employees.

4. Critical accounting estimates and judgments

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make
judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported
amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed at each period end. Revisions to accounting estimates
are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected.

4. Critical accounting estimates and judgments (continued)

Significant areas requiring the use of management assumptions, estimates and judgments include determining
leach pad inventory, impairment of non-current assets, estimated recoverable reserves and resources, current
and deferred taxes, business combinations, commencement of commercial production and functional currency.
Actual results could differ from these estimates. Outlined below are some of the areas which require
management to make significant judgments, estimates and assumptions.
Leach pad inventory
The Company considers ore stacked on its leach pads and in process at its mines as work-in-process
inventory and records their value in earnings, and includes them in the cost of sales based on ounces of gold
sold, using the following assumptions in its estimates:
• the amount of gold and other metals estimated to be in the ore stacked on the leach pads;
• the amount of gold and other metals expected to be recovered from the stacks;
• the amount of gold and other metals in the mill circuits;
• the amount of gold and other metals in concentrates; and
• the gold and other metal prices expect to be realized when sold.
If these estimates or assumptions are inaccurate, the Company could be required to write down the value it
has recorded on its work-in-process inventories, which would reduce earnings and working capital. At
December 31, 2018, the cost of inventory was below its net realizable value.
Impairment of non-current assets
Non-current assets are tested for impairment when events or changes in circumstances suggest that the
carrying amount may not be fully recoverable. We conduct an annual test for impairment of goodwill in the
fourth quarter of each fiscal year and at any other time of the year if an indicator of impairment is identified.
Calculating the estimated FVLCD of CGUs for non-current asset impairment tests and CGUs or groups of
CGUs for goodwill impairment tests requires management to make estimates and assumptions with respect to
future production levels, operating and capital costs in the Company's life-of-mine (“LOM”) plans, long-term
metal prices, foreign exchange rates and discount rates. Changes in any of the assumptions or estimates used
in determining the fair values could impact the impairment analysis.
Estimated recoverable reserves and resources
Mineral reserve and resource estimates are based on various assumptions relating to operating matters,
including, with respect to production costs, mining and processing recoveries, cut-off grades, as well as
assumptions relating to long-term commodity prices and, in some cases, exchange rates, inflation rates and
capital costs. Cost estimates are based on feasibility study estimates or operating history. Estimates are
prepared by appropriately qualified persons, but will be impacted by forecasted commodity prices, inflation
rates, exchange rates, capital and production costs and recoveries amongst other factors. Estimated
recoverable reserves and resources are used to determine the depreciation of property, plant and equipment
at operating mine sites, in accounting for deferred stripping costs, in performing impairment testing and for
forecasting the timing of the payment of decommissioning and restoration costs. Therefore, changes in the
assumptions used could impact the carrying value of assets, depreciation and impairment charges recorded in
the consolidated statement of operations and the carrying value of the decommissioning and restoration
provision.

4. Critical accounting estimates and judgments (continued)

Current and deferred taxes
The Company calculates current and deferred tax provisions for each of the jurisdictions in which it operates.
Actual amounts of income tax expense are not final until tax returns are filed and accepted by the relevant
authorities. This occurs subsequent to the issuance of the consolidated financial statements. Therefore,
earnings in subsequent periods will be affected by the amount that estimates differ from the final tax returns.
Estimates of recoverability are required in assessing whether deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities
are recognized on the consolidated statement of financial position. The Company also evaluates the
recoverability of deferred tax assets based on an assessment of the ability to use the underlying future tax
deductions before they expire against future taxable income. Deferred tax liabilities arising from temporary
differences on investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates are recognized unless the reversal of
the temporary differences is not expected to occur in the foreseeable future and can be controlled.
Assumptions about the generation of future taxable earnings and repatriation of retained earnings depend on
management’s estimates of future production and sales volumes, commodity prices, reserves, operating costs,
decommissioning and restoration costs, capital expenditures, dividends and other capital management
transactions.
Judgment is also required in the application of income tax legislation. These estimates and judgments are
subject to risk and uncertainty and could result in an adjustment to current and deferred tax provisions and a
corresponding credit or debit to earnings or loss for the period.
Business combinations
Determination of whether a set of assets acquired and liabilities assumed constitute the acquisition of a
business or asset may require the Company to make certain judgements as to whether or not the assets
acquired and liabilities assumed include the inputs, processes and outputs necessary to constitute a business
as defined in IFRS 3 - Business Combinations. If an acquired set of assets and liabilities includes goodwill, the
set is presumed to be a business. Based on an assessment of the relevant facts and circumstances, the
Company concluded that the acquisitions of Integra (note 6) met the criteria of a business combination.
Business combinations require estimates to be made at the date of acquisition in relation to determining asset
and liability fair values and the allocation of the purchase consideration over the fair value of the assets and
liabilities. In respect of mining company acquisitions purchase consideration is typically allocated to the mineral
reserves and resources being acquired. The estimate of reserves and resources is subject to assumptions
relating to life of the mine and may change when new information becomes available. Changes in reserves
and resources as a result of factors such as production costs, recovery rates, grade or reserves or commodity
prices could impact depreciation rates, asset carrying values and environmental and restoration provisions.
Changes in assumptions over long-term commodity prices, market demand and supply, and economic and
regulatory climates could also impact the carrying value of assets, including goodwill.
Commencement of commercial production
Until a mining property is declared as being in the commercial production stage, all costs related to its
development are capitalized. The determination of the date on which a mine enters the commercial production
stage is a matter of judgment that impacts when capitalization of development costs ceases and recognition of
revenues and depreciation of the mining property commences and is charged to profit or loss.
Functional currency
The functional currency for each of the Company’s subsidiaries is the currency of the primary economic
environment in which the entity operates. The Company has determined the functional currency of each entity
is the US dollar. Determination of functional currency may involve certain judgements to determine the primary
economic environment and the Company reconsiders the functional currency of its entities if there is a change
in events and conditions which determined the primary economic environment.

5. Adoption of new accounting standards

The following standards and amendments to existing standards have been adopted by the Company
commencing January 1, 2018:
• IFRS 9 ‘Financial Instruments’ – This standard was published in July 2014 and replaces the existing
guidance in IAS 39, ‘Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement’. IFRS 9 includes revised
guidance on the classification and measurement of financial instruments, including a new expected credit
loss model for calculating impairment on financial assets, and new general hedge accounting requirements.
Most of the requirements in IAS 39 for classification and measurement of financial liabilities were carried
forward in IFRS 9, so the Company's accounting policy with respect to financial liabilities is substantially
unchanged. The Company has changed its accounting policy with respect to the clarification of financial
assets that were recognized at the date of transition, January 1, 2018. The new policy is included in note 3,
section 3.7. The change did not impact the presentation or carrying value of any financial assets on the
transition date.
As part of the implementation of this standard, the Company completed an assessment of its financial
instruments as at January 1, 2018 in compliance with IFRS 9. The following table shows the original
classification under IAS 39 and the new classification under IFRS 9:

Original classification New New classification IFRS 9

classification IAS 39

Financial assets
Cash and cash equivalents Amortized cost Amortized cost
Term deposit Amortized cost Amortized cost
Restricted cash Amortized cost Amortized cost
Trade receivables Amortized cost Amortized cost
Embedded derivative separately
Settlement receivables FVTPL
identified as FVTPL
Marketable securities Available-for-sale FVTOCI
Derivatives FVTPL FVTPL

Financial liabilities
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities Amortized cost Amortized cost
Debt Amortized cost Amortized cost

Upon adoption of IFRS 9, the Company made an irrevocable election to classify marketable securities as
FVTOCI since they are not held for trading and are held for strategic reasons.
• IFRS 15 ‘Revenue from Contracts with Customers’ – This standard introduces a single model that applies to
contracts with customers and two approaches to recognising revenue: at a point in time or over time. The
model features a contract-based five-step analysis of transactions to determine whether, how much and
when revenue is recognized. The Company's revenue recognition policy under the previous standard
recognized revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement existed, the bullion, doré, metal
concentrates and iron ore had been shipped, title had passed to the purchaser, the price was fixed or
determinable, and collection was reasonably assured. The Company has adopted this standard with a
modified retrospective approach and has changed its accounting policy for revenue recognition. The new
policy is included in note 3, section 3.19. There was no adjustment to prior periods as a result of the
implementation of this standard. The Company has provided additional disclosures required by this
standard in note 28 of these audited consolidated financial statements.

5. Adoption of new accounting standards (continued)

• IFRS 2 ‘Share-Based Payments’ – In June 2016, the IASB issued final amendments to this standard and
clarified the classification and measurement of share-based payment transactions. These amendments
deal with variations in the final settlement arrangements including:
(a) accounting for cash-settled share-based payment transactions that include a performance condition,
(b) classification of share-based payment transactions with net settlement features; and
(c) accounting for modifications of share-based payment transactions from cash-settled to equity.
At January 1, 2018, the Company adopted this standard and there was no impact on the consolidated
financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018.
The following standard and interpretation will be adopted by the Company in the annual accounting periods
beginning January 1, 2019:
• IFRS 16 ‘Leases’ – This standard was published in January 2016 and replaces the existing guidance in IAS
17, ‘Leases’. IFRS 16 introduces a single accounting model for lessees and for all leases with a term of
more than 12 months, unless the underlying asset is of low value. A lessee will be required to recognize a
right-of-use asset, representing its right to use the underlying asset, and a lease liability, representing its
obligation to make lease payments. The accounting treatment for lessors will remain largely the same as
under IAS 17.
The Company will adopt this standard effective January 1, 2019. Under this standard, the present value of
lease commitments will be shown as a liability on the balance sheet together with an asset representing the
right of use, including those leases classified as operating leases under the current standard IAS 17. This
implies higher amounts of depreciation expense and interest expense on lease liabilities will be recorded in
the Company’s consolidated net earnings or loss in 2019 and future years. Additionally, a corresponding
reduction in G&A costs and/or production costs is expected.
The Company is in the process of completing its review and analysis of IFRS 16 and will apply IFRS 16
using the cumulative catch-up approach where the additional right-of-use assets and lease liabilities will be
recorded from that date forward and will not require restatement of prior years comparative information.
The Company will provide the quantitative impact of adopting IFRS 16 in its Q1, 2019 unaudited condensed
consolidated interim financial statements.
• IFRIC 23 'Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatments' – This interpretation sets out how to determine the
accounting tax position when there is uncertainty over income tax treatments. The Interpretation requires an
entity to determine whether uncertain tax positions are assessed separately or as a group; and assess
whether it is probable that a tax authority will accept an uncertain tax treatment used, or proposed to be
used, by an entity in its income tax filings. If yes, the entity should determine its accounting tax position
consistently with the tax treatment used or planned to be used in its income tax filings. If no, the entity
should reflect the effect of uncertainty in determining its accounting tax position. The Interpretation is
effective January 1, 2019. Entities can apply the interpretation with either full retrospective application or
modified retrospective application without restatement of comparatives retrospectively or prospectively. The
Company does not expect the application of the Interpretation will have a significant impact on the
Company’s consolidated financial statements.
There are other new standards, amendments to standards and interpretations that have been published and
are not yet effective. The Company believes they will have no material impact on its consolidated financial
statements.

6. Acquisition of Integra
On July 10, 2017, the Company acquired all of the remaining issued and outstanding common shares of
Integra, by way of a plan of arrangement (the “Arrangement”). Pursuant to the Arrangement, Eldorado issued
15,436,179 common shares with a fair value of $188,061 and paid $99,823 in cash to the former Integra
shareholders. Integra is a resource company engaged in the exploration of mineral properties with the primary
focus on the Lamaque gold project located in Val-d’Or, Quebec.
As part of the consideration, the Company included advances to Integra for $27,046 and the fair value of the
existing available-for-sale Integra investment that it previously owned for $41,968. The Company recognized a
gain on marketable securities for $28,363 and taxes of $4,023, as a reversal of the unrealized gain and taxes
included in other comprehensive income at the date of acquisition related to this previously owned investment.
The fair value of the common shares issued as part of the consideration paid for Integra was based on the
closing share price on July 7, 2017 on the TSX of C$15.70 per share. The foreign exchange rate used at time
of acquisition was CDN$1 = US$0.776.
Goodwill of $92,591 resulting from the acquisition arises mainly on the recognition of deferred income tax
liabilities and represents, among other things, the exploration potential within the assets acquired and future
variability in the price of minerals. None of the goodwill is deductible for tax purposes.
The allocation of the purchase price is as follows:

15,436,179 common shares of shares of Eldorado at C$15.70/share (*) $ 188,061

Cash consideration including advances 126,869
Fair value of existing Integra investment by Eldorado 41,968
Total Consideration $ 356,898

Net assets acquired:

Cash and cash equivalents $ 5,205

Marketable securities 2,857
Accounts receivable and other 5,920
Inventories 2,471
Other assets 3,495
Property, plant and equipment 393,647
Goodwill 92,591
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities (8,028)
Flow-through share premium liability (4,722)
Other liabilities (9,635)
Deferred income taxes (126,903)
$ 356,898
* common shares and price per share shown as post-share consolidation amounts. Please refer to Note 20.

The purchase price allocation was finalized at June 30, 2018. There were no changes from the preliminary
allocation as reported in the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended
December 31, 2017.

13. Property, plant and equipment (continued)

The amount of capitalized interest during the year ended December 31, 2018 included in property, plant and
equipment was $36,750 (2017 – $36,750).
In accordance with the Company’s accounting policies each CGU is assessed for indicators of impairment,
from both external and internal sources, at the end of each reporting period. If such indicators of impairment
exist for any CGUs, those CGUs are tested for impairment. 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.
Determining the estimated fair values of each CGU requires Management to use judgment in determining
estimates and assumptions with respect to discount rates, exchange rates, future production levels including
amount of recoverable reserves, resources and exploration potential, recovery rates and concentrate grades,
mining methods, operating and capital costs, long-term metal prices and income taxes. Metal pricing
assumptions were based on long-term consensus forecast pricing, and the discount rates were based on the
Company’s internal weighted average costs of capital, adjusted for country risk. Changes in any of the
assumptions or estimates used in determining the fair values could impact the impairment analysis.
Kisladag
During the quarter ended September 30, 2018, the Company completed a feasibility study of a new mill at
Kisladag and the decision to proceed with the new mill was approved by the Board of Directors on October
25, 2018. The feasibility study shows a transition in the mine plan which shortens the estimated useful life of
the leach pad to 2020. Kisladag updated their production plan for the leach pad with additional drill data.
As a result of the shortened estimated life of the leach pad and the new production plan, the Company
assessed the recoverable amounts of leach pad costs and related plant and equipment for the Kisladag leach
pad assets at September 30, 2018 using a value-in-use approach. The projected cash flows used in
impairment testing are significantly affected by changes in assumptions for the amount of recoverable ounces,
metal prices, and production costs estimates. The Company's impairment testing incorporated the following
key assumptions:

Gold price ($/oz) $1,250

Silver price ($/oz) $17
Discount rate 6.5%

As at September 30, 2018, the Company recorded an impairment charge to Kisladag leach pad costs and
related plant and equipment of $117,570 ($94,056, net of deferred tax). As at December 31, 2018,
Management determined that no further impairment or reversal of impairment was identified for the Kisladag
CGU (note 32).

13. Property, plant and equipment (continued)

Olympias
As at December 31, 2018, Management determined that continued jurisdictional risk with obtaining permits in
Greece, together with the softening global market for the sale of concentrate, represented an indicator of
potential impairment for Olympias. No other indicators of impairment for other CGUs were identified.
The key assumptions used for assessing the recoverable amount of the Olympias carrying values as at
December 31, 2018 are as follows:

Gold price ($/oz) $1,275 - $1,300

Silver price ($/oz) $17 - $18
Lead price ($/t) $2,200 - $2,300
Zinc price ($/t) $2,800 - $2,900
Discount rate 7%

At December 31, 2018, the Company recorded an impairment charge to the Olympias CGU of $330,238
($247,679, net of deferred tax).

14. Goodwill
As a result of the purchase price allocation for the Integra acquisition, the Company recognized goodwill of
$92,591 in 2017 (note 6). As of December 31, 2018 all goodwill relates to Integra's Lamaque CGU.
Impairment tests for goodwill
Goodwill is tested for impairment annually and when circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be
recoverable. Impairment is determined for goodwill by assessing the recoverable amount of each CGU or
group of CGUs to which the goodwill relates. Where the recoverable amount of the CGU is less than its
carrying amount including goodwill, an impairment loss is recognised. Impairment losses relating to goodwill
cannot be reversed in future periods.
The key assumptions used for assessing the recoverable amount of goodwill in the Lamaque CGU are
reflected in the table below. Management used judgment in determining estimates and assumptions with
respect to discount rates, exchange rates, future production level including amount of recoverable reserves,
resources and exploration potential, recovery rates and concentrate grades, mining methods, operating and
capital costs, long-term metal prices and income taxes. Metal pricing assumptions were based on long-term
consensus forecast pricing, and the discount rates were based on the Company's internal weighted average
costs of capital, adjusted for country risk. Changes in any of the assumptions or estimates used in determining
the fair values could impact the recoverable amount of goodwill analysis.

2018
Gold price ($/oz) $1,275 - $1,300
Discount rate 5%
Conversion factor of resources and exploration
potential to proven and probable reserves 21%
Fair value per ounce of resources and exploration
potential beyond proven and probable reserves $140

The estimated recoverable amount of the Lamaque CGU including goodwill exceeded its carrying amount by
approximately $115.6 million. A change in the gold price to $1,200 per ounce would result in an impairment.

16. Debt
(a) Revolving credit facility
In November 2012, the Company entered into a $375 million revolving credit facility with a syndicate of banks.
This credit facility was amended and restated in June 2016 (“the amended and restated credit agreement” or
“ARCA”) and reduced to an available credit of $250 million with the option to increase by an additional $100
million through an accordion feature. The maturity date is June 13, 2020. The ARCA is secured by the shares
of SG Resources and Tuprag, wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company.
The ARCA contains covenants that restrict, among other things, the ability of the Company to incur aggregate
unsecured indebtedness exceeding $850 million, incur secured indebtedness exceeding $200 million and
permitted unsecured indebtedness exceeding $150 million. The ARCA also contains restrictions for making
distributions in certain circumstances, selling material assets and conducting business other than that which
relates to the mining industry. Significant financial covenants include a maximum Net Debt to Earnings before
Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“EBITDA”) of 3.5:1 and a minimum EBITDA to Interest of 3:1.
The Company is in compliance with these covenants as at December 31, 2018.
Loan interest on the revolving credit facility is variable dependent on a Net Leverage ratio pricing grid. The
Company’s current net leverage ratio is approximately 2.26:1. At this ratio, interest charges and fees are as
follows: LIBOR plus margin of 2.625% and undrawn standby fee of 0.725%. Fees of $2,031 were paid on the
amendment dated June 2016. This amount has been deferred as pre-payment for liquidity services and is
being amortized to financing costs over the term of the credit facility. As at December 31, 2018, the prepaid
loan cost on the consolidated statement of financial position was $749 (2017 - $1,272).
No amounts were drawn down under the ARCA in 2018 and as at December 31, the balance is $nil (2017 –
$nil).
(b) Senior notes
On December 10, 2012, the Company completed an offering of $600.0 million senior notes (“the notes”) at par
value, with a coupon rate of 6.125% due December 15, 2020. The notes pay interest semi-annually on June 15
and December 15. The Company received proceeds of $589.5 million from the offering, which is net of the
commission payment. The notes are redeemable by the Company in whole or in part, for cash:
The fair market value of the notes as at December 31, 2018 is $550 million.
Net deferred financing costs of $4,023 (2017 – $6,217) have been included as an offset in the balance of the
notes in the consolidated financial statements and are being amortized over the term of the notes. The debt
balance as at December 31, 2018 was $595,977 (2017 – $593,783).

The Company’s asset retirement obligations relate to the restoration and rehabilitation of the Company’s
mining operations and projects under development. The expected timing of the cash flows in respect of the
provision is based on the estimated life of the various mining operations. The reduction in the estimate of the
obligation in 2018 was mainly due to reclamation work performed during the year at Olympias.
The provision is calculated as the present value of estimated future net cash outflows based on the following
key assumptions:

Turkey Canada Greece Romania Brazil

% % % % %
At December 31, 2017
Inflation rate 2.0 to 2.2 2.0 to 2.2 2.0 to 2.2 2.0 to 2.2 2.0 to 2.2
Discount rate 2.3 to 2.5 2.3 to 2.5 1.5 to 3.0 2.7 1.8

At December 31, 2018

Inflation rate 2.2 to 2.3 2.2 to 2.3 2.2 to 2.3 2.2 to 2.3 2.2 to 2.3
Discount rate 2.7 2.7 2.5 to 2.9 2.9 2.6

The discount rate is a risk-free rate based on U.S. Treasury bond rates with maturities commensurate with site
mine lives. U.S. Treasury bond rates have been used for all of the mine sites as the liabilities are denominated
in U.S. dollars and the majority of the expenditures are expected to be incurred in U.S. dollars. Similarly, the
inflation rates used in determining the present value of the future net cash outflows are based on U.S inflation
rates.

Cumulative actuarial losses recognised in the statement of

other comprehensive income (before tax) $ (19,838) $ (18,641)

The Company operates defined benefit pension plans in Canada including a registered pension plan (“the
Pension Plan”) and a supplemental pension plan (“the SERP”). During the second quarter of 2012, the SERP
was converted into a Retirement Compensation Arrangement (“RCA”), a trust account. As it is a trust account,
the assets in the account are protected from the Company’s creditors. The RCA requires the Company to remit
50% of any contributions and any realized investment gains to the Receiver General of Canada as refundable
tax.
These plans, which are only available to certain qualifying employees, provide benefits based on an
employee’s years of service and final average earnings at retirement. Annual contributions related to these
plans are actuarially determined and are made at or in excess of minimum requirements prescribed by
legislation.
Eldorado’s plans have actuarial valuations performed for funding purposes. The last actuarial valuations for
funding purposes performed for the Pension Plan and the SERP are as of January 1, 2017 and the next
valuations will be prepared in accordance with the funding policy as of January 1, 2019. The measurement
date to determine the pension obligation and assets for accounting purposes was December 31, 2018.
The SERP is designed to provide supplementary pension benefits to qualifying employees affected by the
maximum pension limits under the Income Tax Act pursuant to the registered Pension Plan. Further, the
Company is not required to pre-fund any benefit obligation under the SERP.

18. Defined benefit plans (continued)

Total cash payments
No contributions were required to the Pension Plan and the SERP during 2018 (2017 – $1,415). Cash
payments totalling $4,182 were made directly to beneficiaries during the year (2017 – $1,542). For the year
2019, the expected amount of contributions to the Pension Plan is $31. No contributions are expected to the
SERP.
Subsidiaries pension plan
According to the Greek and Turkish labour laws, employees are entitled to compensation in case of dismissal
or retirement, the amount of which varies depending on salary, years of service and the manner of termination
(dismissal or retirement). Employees who resign or are dismissed with cause are not entitled to compensation.
The Company considers this a defined benefit obligation. Amounts relating to these pension plans have been
included in the tables in this note under “Pension Plan” when applicable.
The amounts recognised in the consolidated statement of financial position for all pension plans are
determined as follows:

Deductible temporary differences

At December 31, 2018 the Company had deductible temporary differences for which deferred tax assets of
$11,967 (2017 – $11,253) have not been recognized because it is not probable that future taxable profits will
be available against which the Company can utilize the benefits. The vast majority of these temporary benefits
have no expiry date.
Temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries
The Company has not recognized deferred tax liabilities in respect of historical unremitted earnings of foreign
subsidiaries for which we are able to control the timing of the remittance and are considered reinvested for the
foreseeable future. At December 31, 2018, these earnings amount to $546,403 (2017 – $788,137).
Substantially all of these earnings would be subject to withholding taxes if they were remitted by the foreign
subsidiaries.

19. Income taxes (continued)

Other factors affecting taxation
During 2018 the Turkish Lira weakened, resulting in a deferred income tax expense during the year of $24,595
due to the decrease in the value of the future tax deductions associated with the Turkish operations. The
Company expects that in the future significant foreign exchange movements in the Turkish Lira, Euro or
Brazilian Real in relation to the U.S. dollar could cause significant volatility in the deferred income tax expense
or recovery.

20. Share capital

Eldorado’s authorized share capital consists of an unlimited number of voting common shares without par
value and an unlimited number of non-voting common shares without par value. At December 31, 2018 there
were no non-voting common shares outstanding (December 31, 2017 – nil).
Effective December 27, 2018, the Company consolidated its issued and outstanding common shares (the "Pre-
Consolidation Shares") on the basis of one (1) new common share (the "Post-Consolidation Shares") for every
five (5) Pre-Consolidation Shares held (the "Share Consolidation"). As a result of the Share Consolidation, the
794,010,680 Pre-Consolidation Shares were consolidated to 158,801,722 Post-Consolidation Shares. The
Share Consolidation was previously approved by shareholders at a meeting held on June 21, 2018. All
references in the consolidated financial statements including amounts in the comparative period and the notes
to the consolidated financial statements have been adjusted to reflect this share consolidation.

21. Share-based payments (continued)

(a) Share option plans
Previously, the Company had two share option plans (the “Plans”) approved, as amended and restated, by the
shareholders from time to time. On June 21, 2018, shareholders approved the combination of the two plans
into the Incentive Stock Option Plan effective as of June 21, 2018 under which share purchase options
(“Options”) can be granted to officers, employees and consultants.
The Company’s Incentive Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”) consists of options which are subject to a 5-year
maximum term and payable in shares of the Company when vested and exercised. The Plan prohibits the re-
pricing of Options without shareholder approval. Options vest at the discretion of the Board of Directors at the
time an Option is granted. Generally, Options granted before November 1, 2015 vest in three equal and
separate tranches with the first tranche vesting on the grant date and the second and third tranches vesting on
the second and third anniversary dates of the grant date. Options granted on or after November 1, 2015 vest in
three equal and separate tranches with vesting commencing one year after the date of grant and the second
and third tranches vesting on the second and third anniversary of the grant date. Options are subject to
withholding tax on exercise, withholding tax is paid by the Option holder to the Company prior to receipt of the
shares received pursuant to exercise.
The Company is responsible for remittance of the withholding tax to the appropriate tax authority. As at
December 31, 2018, a total of 3,928,361 options (2017 – 3,575,074) were available to grant under the Plan.
Movements in the number of share options outstanding and their related weighted average exercise prices are

Share based payments expense related to share options for the year ended December 31, 2018 was $3,392
(2017 – $6,736).
The assumptions used to estimate the fair value of options granted during the years ended December 31,
2018 and 2017 were:

2018 2017
Risk-free interest rate (range) (%) 1.80 – 2.20 0.70 – 1.05
Expected volatility (range) (%) 58 – 64 60 – 65
Expected life (range) (years) 1.79 – 3.79 1.80 – 3.80
Expected dividends (CDN$) — 0.02
Forfeiture rate (%) 8.0 11.0

The weighted average fair value per stock option granted was Cdn$2.32 (2017 – Cdn$7.65). Volatility was
determined based on the historical volatility over the estimated lives of the options.

(b) Restricted share unit plan
The Company has a Restricted Share Unit plan (“RSU” plan) whereby restricted share units may be granted to
senior management of the Company. The current maximum number of common shares authorized for issue
under the RSU plan is 5,000,000. As at December 31, 2018, 508,127 common shares purchased by the
Company remain held in trust in connection with this plan (2017 – 1,706,096) and have been included in
treasury stock within equity on the consolidated statement of financial position.
Currently, the Company has two types of RSUs:
i. RSU with no performance criteria
These RSUs are exercisable into one common share once vested, entitling the holder to receive the common
share for no additional consideration. They vest as follows: one third on the first anniversary of the grant date,
one third on the second anniversary of the grant date and one third on the third anniversary of the grant date.
RSUs with no performance criteria terminate on the third anniversary of the grant date. All vested RSUs which
have not been redeemed by the date of termination are automatically redeemed. Such RSUs may be
redeemed by the holder in shares or cash, with cash redemptions subject to the approval of the Board. RSU
redemptions are subject to withholding tax, which is paid by the RSU holder to the Company prior to receipt of
the resultant shares. Cash settlements are paid net of withholding tax. The Company is responsible for
remittance of the withholding tax to the appropriate tax authority.
A total of 214,859 RSUs with no performance criteria at an average grant-date fair value of Cdn$5.88 per unit
were granted during the year ended December 31, 2018 under the Company’s RSU plan. The fair value of
each RSU issued is determined as the closing share price at grant date.
A summary of the status of the RSUs with no performance criteria and changes during the year ended
December 31, 2018 is as follows:

2018 2017
At January 1, 341,198 248,013
Granted 214,859 187,366
Redeemed (181,491) (69,968)
Forfeited (41,447) (24,213)
At December 31, 333,119 341,198

As at December 31, 2018, 29,371 restricted share units are fully vested and exercisable (2017 – 119,356).
Compensation expense related to RSUs with no performance criteria for the year ended December 31, 2018
was $1,425 (2017 – $2,716).
ii. RSU with performance criteria
RSUs with performance criteria vest on the third anniversary of the grant date, subject to achievement of pre-
determined performance criteria. When fully vested, the number of RSUs redeemed will range from 0% to
200% of the target award, subject to the performance of the share price over the 3 year period.
A total of 167,976 RSUs with performance criteria were granted during the year ended December 31, 2018
under the Company’s RSU plan. No RSUs with performance criteria were granted by the Company in previous
years.

$175 (2017 - $nil).
(c) Deferred units plan
The Company has an Independent Directors Deferred Unit plan (“DU Plan”) under which DU’s are granted by
the Board from time to time to independent directors (“the Participants”). DUs may be redeemed only on
retirement of the independent director from the Board (the “Termination Date”) by providing the redemption
notice (“Redemption Notice”) to the Company specifying the redemption date which shall be no later than
December 15 of the first calendar year commencing after the calendar year in which the Termination Date
occurred (the “Redemption Date”). Fifteen (15) trading days after the Redemption Date but no later than
December 31 of the first calendar year commencing after the calendar year in which the Termination Date
occurred, the Participant shall have the right to receive, and shall receive, with respect to all DUs held at the
Redemption Date a cash payment equal to the market value of such DUs as of the Redemption Date. The
Company will withhold income tax on redeemed DUs and is responsible for submission of the withholding tax
to the tax authority.
At December 31, 2018, 234,125 DUs were outstanding (2017 – 119,367) with a value of $686 (2017 – $866),
which is included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities.
Compensation income related to the DUs for the year ended December 31, 2018 was $277 (2017 – $1,023).
(d) Performance share units plan
The Company has a Performance Share Unit plan (the “PSU” Plan) whereby PSUs may be granted to senior
management of the Company at the discretion of the Board of Directors. Under the plan, PSUs cliff vest on the
third anniversary of the grant date (the “Redemption Date”) and are subject to terms and conditions including
the achievement of predetermined performance criteria (the “Performance Criteria”). When fully vested the
number of PSUs redeemed will range from 0% to 200% of the target award, subject to the achievement of the
Performance Criteria. Once vested, at the option of the Company, PSU’s are redeemable as a cash payment
equal to the market value of the vested PSUs as of the Redemption Date, common shares of the Company
equal to the number of vested PSUs, or a combination of cash and shares equal to the market value of the
vested PSUs, for no additional consideration from the PSU holder and to be redeemed as soon as practicable
after the Redemption Date. The Company will withhold income tax on redeemed PSUs and is responsible for
submission of the withholding tax to the tax authority.
A total of 261,523 PSUs were granted during the year ended December 31, 2018 under the PSU Plan (2017 –
113,938). The current maximum number of common shares authorized for issuance from treasury under the
PSU Plan is 3,130,000.

23. Financial risk management

23.1 Financial risk factors
Eldorado’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including currency risk, fair value
interest rate risk and price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. Eldorado’s overall risk management program
focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimize potential adverse effects on the
Company’s financial performance.
(a) Market risk
(i) Foreign exchange risk
The Company operates principally in Turkey, Canada, Greece, Brazil and Romania, and is therefore exposed
to foreign exchange risk arising from transactions denominated in foreign currencies. Foreign exchange risk
arises when future commercial transactions or recognised assets or liabilities are denominated in a currency
that is not the entity’s functional currency.
Eldorado’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, marketable securities, accounts payable and
accrued liabilities and debt are denominated in several currencies, and are therefore subject to fluctuation
against the U.S. dollar.

dollars $ 4,865 $ 347 $ (17,664) $ (802) $ 12 $ 394 $ 2,874 $ 495 $ 6,946

Based on the balances as at December 31, 2018, a 1% increase/decrease in the U.S. dollar exchange rate
against all of the other currencies on that date would have resulted in a decrease/increase of approximately
$675 (2017 – $25) in earnings (loss) before taxes. There would be no effect on other comprehensive income.
Cash flows from operations are exposed to foreign exchange risk, as commodity sales are set in U.S. dollars
and a certain amount of operating expenses are in the currency of the country in which mining operations take
place.
(ii) Metal price and global market risk
The Company is subject to price risk for fluctuations in the market price of gold and the global concentrate
market. Gold and other metals prices are affected by numerous factors beyond the Company’s control,
including central bank sales, demand for concentrate, producer hedging activities, the relative exchange rate of
the U.S. dollar with other major currencies, global and regional demand and political and economic conditions.

(In thousands of U.S. dollars, unless otherwise stated)

23. Financial risk management (continued)

Worldwide gold and other metals production levels also affect their prices, and the price of these metals is
occasionally subject to rapid short-term changes due to speculative activities. From time to time, the Company
may use commodity price contracts to manage its exposure to fluctuations in the price of gold and other
metals, but has elected not to at this time.
Other price risk is the risk that the value of a financial instrument will fluctuate as a result of changes in market
prices.
This includes equity price risk, whereby the Company’s investments in marketable securities are subject to
market price fluctuation.
(iii) Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to
changes in market interest rates. Current financial assets and financial liabilities are generally not exposed to
interest rate risk because of their short-term nature. The Company’s debt is in the form of notes with a fixed
interest rate of 6.125%. However, any future borrowings under the ARCA are at variable rates of interest and
would expose the Company to interest rate risk.
(b) Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will fail to discharge an obligation and cause the
other party to incur a financial loss. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to credit risk
consist of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, term deposits and accounts receivable. In accordance
with the Company's Investment Policy, term deposits and short term investments are held with high credit
quality financial institutions as determined by rating agencies. The carrying value of $356,823 is the maximum
amount exposed to credit risk.
Payment for metal sales is normally in advance or within fifteen days of shipment depending on the buyer.
While the historical level of customer defaults is negligible, which has reduced the credit risk associated with
trade receivables at December 31, 2018, there is no guarantee that buyers, including under exclusive sales
arrangements, will not default on its commitments, which may have an adverse impact on the Company's
financial performance.
(c) Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that an entity will encounter difficulty in raising funds to meet commitments associated
with financial instruments. The Company manages liquidity by maintaining adequate cash and cash equivalent
balances and by using its line of credit as required. Management monitors and reviews both actual and
forecasted cash flows, and also matches the maturity profile of financial assets and liabilities. Contractual
maturities relating to debt are included in note 16. All other financial liabilities are due within one year.
23.2 Capital risk management
Eldorado’s objective is to maintain a strong capital base so as to maintain investor, creditor and market
confidence and to sustain future development of the Company's mining projects. Capital consists of all of the
components of equity which includes share capital from ordinary shares, contributed surplus, accumulated
other comprehensive income, deficit and non-controlling interests.
Eldorado monitors capital on the basis of the debt to capital ratio and Net Debt to EBITDA. The debt to capital
ratio is calculated as debt, including current and non-current debt, divided by capital plus debt. The Net Debt to
EBITDA ratio is calculated as debt, including current and non-current debt, less cash, cash equivalents and
term deposits, divided by earnings before interest costs, taxes, depreciation and amortization.
As at December 31, 2018, our debt to capital ratio was 15.2% (2017 – 13.8%) and our Net Debt to EBITDA
ratio was 2.26:1 (2017 – 0.9:1).

In April 2007, Hellas Gold agreed to sell to Silver Wheaton (Caymans) Ltd., a subsidiary of Wheaton Precious
Metals (“Wheaton Precious Metals”) all of the payable silver contained in lead concentrate produced within an
area of approximately seven square kilometers around Stratoni. The sale was made in consideration of a
prepayment to Hellas Gold of $57.5 million in cash, plus a fixed price per ounce of payable silver to be
delivered based on the lesser of $3.90 and the prevailing market price per ounce, adjusted higher by 1% every
year. The Agreement was amended in October 2015 to provide for increases in the fixed price paid by
Wheaton Precious Metals upon completion of certain expansion drilling milestones. 10,000 meters of
expansion drilling was reached during the second quarter of 2018 and in accordance with the terms of the
agreement, the fixed price has been adjusted by an additional $2.50 per ounce. Accordingly, the fixed price as
of July 1, 2018 is equal to $6.77 per ounce.
As at December 31, 2018, Tuprag Metal Madencilik Sanayi Ve Ticaret A.S. (“Tuprag”), a subsidiary of Eldorado
had entered into off-take agreements pursuant to which Tuprag agreed to sell a total of 45,000 dry metric
tonnes of gold concentrate through the year ending December 31, 2019.

25. Contingencies
Due to the size, complexity and nature of the Company’s operations, various legal, tax, environmental and
regulatory matters are outstanding from time to time. By their nature, contingencies will only be resolved when
one or more future events occur or fail to occur. While the outcomes of these matters are uncertain, based
upon the information currently available, the Company does not believe that these matters in aggregate will
have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial position, cash flows or results of operations. In the
event that management’s estimate of the future resolution of these matters changes, the Company will
recognize the effects of these changes in its consolidated financial statements in the appropriate period
relative to when such changes occur. As at December 31, 2018, the amount of ultimate liability with respect to
these actions will not, in the opinion of management, materially affect Eldorado’s consolidated financial
position, results of operations or cash flows. Accordingly, no amounts have been accrued as at December 31,
2018.

Fair values are determined directly by reference to published price quotations in an active market, when
available, or by using a valuation technique that uses inputs observed from relevant markets.
The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:
• Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for
identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.
• Level 2 – Inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, but do not qualify as Level 1 inputs (i.e.,
quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities).
• Level 3 – Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value
measurement and unobservable (i.e., supported by little or no market activity).

27. Financial instruments by category (continued)

Assets measured at fair value as at December 31, 2018 are marketable securities and long lived assets that
have been impaired and their carrying values are now at FVLCD (note 13). No liabilities are measured at fair
value on a recurring basis as at December 31, 2018.
The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets is based on quoted market prices at the balance
sheet date. A market is regarded as active if quoted prices are readily and regularly available from an
exchange, dealer, broker, industry group, pricing service, or regulatory agency, and those prices represent
actual and regularly occurring market transactions on an arm’s length basis. The quoted market price used for
financial assets held by the group is the current bid price. These instruments are included in Level 1.
Instruments included in Level 1 comprise primarily publicly-traded equity investments classified as held-for-
trading securities or available-for-sale securities. With the exception of the fair market value of the Company’s
senior notes (note 16b), which are included in level 2, all carrying amounts of financial instruments
approximate their fair value.

31. Segment information

Identification of reportable segments
The Company has identified its operating segments based on the internal reports that are reviewed and used
by the chief executive officer and the executive management (the chief operating decision makers or CODM)
in assessing performance and in determining the allocation of resources.
The CODM consider the business from both a geographic and product perspective and assess the
performance of the operating segments based on measures of profit and loss as well as assets and liabilities.
These measures include operating profit, expenditures on exploration, property, plant and equipment and non-
current assets, as well as total debt. As at December 31, 2018, Eldorado had six reportable segments based
on the geographical location of mining and exploration and development activities.
Geographical segments
Geographically, the operating segments are identified by country and by operating mine or mine under
construction. The Turkey reporting segment includes the Ki lada and the Efemçukuru mines and exploration
activities in Turkey. The Canada reporting segment includes the Lamaque project and exploration activities in
Canada. The Greece reporting segment includes the Stratoni and Olympias mines, the Skouries, Perama Hill
and Sapes projects and exploration activities in Greece. The Romania reporting segment includes the Certej
project and exploration activities in Romania. The Brazil reporting segment includes the Vila Nova mine,
Tocantinzinho project and exploration activities in Brazil. Other reporting segment includes operations of
Eldorado’s corporate office and exploration activities in other countries.
Financial information about each of these operating segments is reported to the CODM on a monthly basis.
The mines in each of the different reporting segments share similar economic characteristics and have been
aggregated accordingly.

concentrates.

32. Events occurring after the reporting date

On January 30, 2019, the Company announced that it will resume mining, crushing, stacking and heap
leaching at its Kisladag gold mine in Turkey. Extended leach cycles show improved recoveries and revised
heap leach plans show improved economics for the heap leaching scenario. As a result, advancement of the
previously announced mill project was suspended. Mining is expected to recommence by the end of Q1 2019.
Management performed a further impairment test of the Kisladag CGU and determined that no further
impairment or reversal of impairment was identified for the Kisladag CGU.
