Matt Manson, President & CEO commented: "We are pleased that in our first year of production at the Renard Mine we are reporting carats, tonnes and grade results broadly in line with guidance. This is a strong testament to the dedication of our operating team and the quality of our Mineral Resource estimates. We continue to see a lower price environment for our diamond sales, in part due to what has been a challenging rough diamond market for a new producer, and in part due to the lower than expected quality and size attributes of our initial production as we process its recovery. For the Stornoway team, 2018 will be a year of process improvement in diamond recovery, as well as focus on the initiation and ramp-up of our underground mine. It will also be a year with renewed focus on the future at Renard, with opportunities evident to us in processing expansion, resource conversion, and new exploration. Most importantly, we will seek to continue the excellent EH&S performance that we achieved in 2017, with no lost time injuries amongst Stornoway personnel or environmental derogations against permits recorded during the course of the year." 

Fourth Quarter and FY2017 Production Results

During the fourth quarter, 518,817 tonnes of ore were processed compared to a plan of 540,000 tonnes resulting in diamond production of 398,267 carats compared to a plan of 415,940 carats (96% and 96% of plan respectively). Recovered grade was 77 cpht compared to a plan of 77 cpht (100% of plan). Carat production was lower than planned due to the unscheduled batch processing of lower grade Renard 65 ore in November for the purpose of obtaining a valuation sample of Renard 65 diamonds (as described below). 

For the full year FY2017, 1.96 mtonnes were processed with diamond production of 1.64 mcarats at an attributable grade of 84 cpht. This compares to FY2017 guidance of 2.00 mtonnes for 1.69 mcarats at 85 cpht (97%, 98% and 99% of plan respectively).

From the beginning of ore processing at the Renard Mine in July 2016 to December 31, 2017, 2.35 mtonnes of ore have been delivered to the process plant resulting in the production of 2.09 mcarats of diamonds at 89 cpht. This compares favourably with the March 2016 mine plan of 2.22 mtonnes and 1.91 million carats at 86 cpht (109%, 106% and 103% of plan respectively).

The average processing rate of the plant during the fourth quarter, the second quarter of full production following completion of the project ramp-up, was 6,014 tonnes per day compared to the nameplate capacity of the plant of 6,000 tonnes per day.

Fourth Quarter and 2017 Diamond Sales Results

Two tender sales were completed during the fourth quarter. In total, 453,646 carats were sold for gross proceeds1 of $49.1 million2, at an average price of US$86 per carat ($108 per carat2; Table 1).

For the full year FY2017, 1.7 mcarats were sold for gross proceeds of $186.2 million, at an average price of US$85 per carat ($109 per carat). This compares to FY2017 guidance of 1.8 mcarats sold at pricing of between US$100 to US$132 per carat.

_______________________
4 See "Non-IFRS Financial Measures" section.

Full year diamond sales results were impacted by the timing of tender sales, market factors, and the mix and quality of product sold. Diamond recoveries at the Renard Mine through 2017 were impacted by high levels of diamond breakage, and a higher than expected recovery of smaller diamonds than planned. In addition, diamond pricing for smaller and lower quality items were severely impacted by the impacts of de-monetization in India in late 2016, recovery from which was slow during the course of 2017 and remained incomplete at year end.

5 Includes 52,681 carats of smaller and lower quality goods carried over from Stornoway's first sale in November 2016. Excluding these goods, on a run-of-mine basis, 406,446 carats were sold in the first quarter for gross proceeds of $43.8 million, at an average price of US$81 per carat ($108 per carat).
6 Third quarter results include 32,989 carats sold during the third quarter's last tender sale, but for which revenues will be realized in the fourth quarter. Results for the fourth quarter exclude these goods.
7 In the first quarter, four out of tender sales were concluded in addition to the three regular tender sales.

Figure 1 illustrates a FY2017 price index for Renard diamonds on a sale by sale basis, normalized for variations in quality and size distribution. Stornoway sells its diamond production in an open market by tender and, other than in exceptional circumstances, is a market price-taker. The market price index generated by Renard sales data shows a steady increase in achieved pricing from the first sale in November 2016 to July 2017, as market conditions improved and Stornoway's clientele gained familiarity with the Renard production. A rough market price correction, estimated at between 6% and 8%, was observed at the time of the annual market slow-down in the late summer and affected achieved sales pricing at the seventh sale of the year in September. Following this correction, price growth was renewed, with an approximately 3% increase achieved in the fourth quarter. Overall, pricing for Renard diamonds increased by 13.5% in real terms during 2017. Attendance at the 9th and final sale of 2017 in December achieved a record attendance of 163 companies, with 41 separate companies winning diamond parcels.

The outlook for rough diamond pricing in the first half of 2018 is positive, owing to good holiday sales in the principal diamond jewellery retail markets and a flat supply outlook.

FY2018 Production and Sales Guidance

In FY2018, Stornoway expects to produce 1.6 mcarats from the processing of 2.5 mtonnes of ore at an average grade 65 cpht. During the first quarter, ore will be derived primarily from the Renard 2-Renard 3 and Renard 65 open pits. Starting in the second quarter, ore supply will be primarily from the Renard 2 underground mine. This is consistent with the Life of Mine ("LOM") plan published in March, 2016, with the processing of Renard 65 ore earlier than previously planned.

So as to achieve a better look-through of potential variations in quality and size distribution from sale to sale, Stornoway is providing production and pricing guidance for FY2018 segmented by diamond size category. Of the 1.6 mcarats expected to be produced:

Price guidance has been established on the basis of the ranges of prices achieved on each product segment during 2017, and the expected mix of diamond production to be sold including, for the first time, from the Renard 65 kimberlite. Final achieved pricing will be dependent, amongst other things, on external market factors.

Any improvements in the quality and size distribution of Renard's diamond production that is achieved from ongoing process improvement initiatives are expected to be reflected, principally, in the pricing achieved for the +7 DTC sieve size product segment.

The production and sale of -7 DTC sieve size diamonds is expected to be the most volatile in potential quantity and price, reflecting an historically more uncertain market for this product segment and changes that Stornoway may elect to make, from time to time, in the recovery bottom-cut-off in the Renard process plant.

2018 Cost Guidance

For FY2018, cash operating costs are estimated at $142 to $150 million, representing $56 to $60 per tonne processed4 or $87 to $92 per carat. Cash operating costs for FY2018 in the March 2016 LOM plan were estimated at $61 per tonne processed and $91 per carat.

FY2018 capital expenditures4 are estimated at $82 million, principally related to the development of the underground mine at Renard. Capital costs for FY2018 in the March 2016 LOM plan were estimated at $58 million. The increase is principally attributable to the transfer into cap-ex of $12 million of site G&A costs associated with underground mine development that were previously budgeted as operating expenses, and spending associated with the $22 million capital program approved by the Stornoway board of directors in August 2017 for a new waste-ore sorting circuit at the Renard Process Plant.  

Operations Update

In early August the Stornoway board of directors approved an extraordinary capital budget of $22 million for a program of plant improvements aimed at improving the quality profile of the Renard production. At the center of this plan is the introduction of an ore-waste sorting circuit, rated at 7,000 tonnes per day and expandable, designed to extract waste rock in the +30mm-200mm size range immediately prior to its introduction to the secondary cone crusher.

The ore-waste sorting circuit will include covered conveyors, a gravity fed tower containing primary, secondary and scavenging spectral sorters, and a waste rock load out. Work on the concrete foundations was completed in December. Steel erection began in November and was 50% complete at year end. The ore sorting building and conveyor galleries are expected to be completed by mid-February, allowing the subsequent installation of spectral sorting equipment. Commissioning is scheduled to commence at the end of the first quarter. 

In the fourth quarter mining operations focussed on advancing the development of the underground mine. On the principal initial production level on the upper mining horizon at 290 meters, two production accesses have been completed and 26 draw points excavated out of the 32 required for FY2018 production. Ground support enforcement and remaining draw point construction are ongoing and progressing on schedule. Production drilling began during the fourth quarter and by year end an inventory of 436,424 tonnes of drilled ore had been established. The first production blast occurred successfully on December 20th, 2017. 

All mining equipment required to achieve FY2018 underground production targets have been ordered and no delays in equipment deliveries are anticipated at this time.

On December 15, 2017 Stornoway's employees achieved one year without a lost time incident for a total 1.15 million hours worked. There were no environmental derogations recorded against operating permits in FY2017.

Renard 65 Diamond Valuation

During November 2017, a parcel of 5,741 carats of diamonds were recovered from the processing of specially batched Renard 65 ore in the Renard process plant. This parcel, combined with a 946 carat parcel of Renard 65 diamonds recovered by bulk sampling in 2012, were valued by TID Consulting ("TID"), an independent agency, between December 5th and 8th 2017 utilizing current Stornoway sales pricing data. The combined sample of 6,687 carats returned a valuation of US$133 per carat. For FY2018 budgeting purposes, TID have recommended the adoption of a modeled price for Renard 65 diamond production of US$140 per carat, with sensitivities of US$129 per carat and US$151 per carat.

As previously observed, the Renard 65 kimberlite exhibits a diamond population distinct from that seen in the Renard 2 and Renard 3 kimberlites. Renard 65 diamonds are characterized by a high proportion of gem qualities in the larger sizes, most with a characteristic light surface frosting. The 6,687 carat valuation parcel contains thirteen stones larger than 5 carats in size, including two "specials" of 11.98 carats and 17.69 carats. Nine of these thirteen stones are high quality gems and four have been valued in excess of US$4,500 per carat. This is a higher proportion of gem qualities in the large size fractions than is seen in the Renard 2 and Renard 3 kimberlites. The smaller diamond size fractions at Renard 65 are likewise distinct, with a higher proportion of brown gems than at Renard 2-Renard 3, but a lower proportion of the lowest quality "rejection" category.

Non-IFRS Financial Measures

This document may refer to certain financial measures, such as Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Average diamond price achieved, Cash Operating Cost per Tonne of Ore Processed, Cash Operating Cost per Carat Recovered and Capital Expenditures , which are not measures recognized under IFRS and do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS.

"Adjusted EBITDA" and "Adjusted EBITDA Margin" are used by management and investors to assess and measure the underlying pre-tax operating performance of the Corporation and are generally regarded by management as better measures to evaluate performance trends. "Adjusted EBITDA" is defined as net income (loss) before depreciation, interest and other financial (income) expenses, and income tax, adjusted for impairment charges, unrealized gains and losses related to the changes in fair value of U.S. Denominated debt and other non-recurring or unusual items that are not reflective of the Corporation's underlying operating performance and/or unlikely to occur on a regular basis. "Adjusted EBITDA Margin" is the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA divided by total revenues. "Average diamond price achieved" is a measure used by the Corporation to measure the value of diamonds sold into the market in the period, prior to adjustments to reflect the impact of the stream.  This measure is used by management and investors as it reflects the average diamond price achieved during the period and is more comparable to the average diamond price achieved by to other diamond producers.  Average diamond price achieved is calculated based on reported revenues adjusted for the amortization of deferred stream revenue, and remittances made to/from stream participants and gains or losses from revenue hedging activities divided by the number of carats sold in the period.  "Cash Operating Cost per Tonne Processed" and "Cash Operating Cost per Carat Recovered" are used by management and investors to measure the mine's cash operating cost based on per tonne of ore processed or per carat recovered. Cash Operating Cost Per Tonne Processed is calculated based on reported operating expenses adjusted for the impact of inventory variation, excluding depreciation, divided by tonnes of ore processed for the period. Cash Operating Cost per Carat Recovered is the total cash operating cost divided by carats recovered. "Capital Expenditure" is the term used by the Corporation and investors to describe capital expenditures incurred during the period.   This measure is used by management and investors to measure the amount of capital spent by the corporation on sustaining, margin improvement, and/or growth capital projects in the period.
