TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwire - May 14, 2009) - FNX Mining Company Inc. (TSX:FNX) ("FNX" or the "Company") reports financial and operational results for the quarter ending March 31, 2009 for its Sudbury Mining Operations and its DMC Mining Services business ("DMC"). Terry MacGibbon, Chairman and CEO of FNX noted that, "Faced with the unprecedented and rapid deterioration of global markets in general and the mining sector in particular during the second half of 2008, FNX took prudent and decisive actions late in 2008, including suspending nickel production and reducing its work force by nearly 45%. FNX also implemented a policy for 2009 of strict controls on capital, operating and corporate expenditures, preserving a strong balance sheet with zero debt, focusing production on the higher margin copper-precious metal deposits and aggressively advancing development of the LFD at the Levack Mine." He added "Operating and financial results for the first quarter of 2009 demonstrate that our decisions and spending controls are working. Most expenditures are at or below budget. Cash operating margins returned to acceptable levels and totaled $12.6 million and $148 per ton of ore sold during the quarter. Capital expenditures are below budget at $13.2 million and our cash balance remains strong at $114.6 million. The development of the LFD is proceeding efficiently and slightly ahead of schedule." Mr. MacGibbon also stated "Although FNX remains very positive on its Gold Wheaton ("GLW") investment and had no intention of writing down that investment (-$140 million in current and future shares). The GLW financing in March 2009 forced FNX to adjust the Company's share of GLW's net book value resulting in a non-cash, accounting-required dilution loss of $31.2 million. This turned positive earnings of $5.1 million ($0.06 per share) to a $26.2 million loss (($0.31) per share) for the first quarter. Excluding the unusual GLW dilution loss, the Company also had a positive adjusted EBITDA of $12.4 million. We will continue to monitor the Company's situation in light of economic challenges, and changes in the global commodity markets and in the Sudbury mining camp during the balance of 2009. I am confident that our actions not only positioned the Company to survive the downturn, but to prosper when the markets improve." Vale Inco, the Company's custom processor, announced on April 14, 2009 that it will extend its three week scheduled maintenance shutdown in May by an additional eight weeks from June 1 to July 27, 2009. FNX will continue to deliver ore to the custom mill until the end of May. In addition, the collective agreement between Vale Inco and its largest unionized labour force in Sudbury terminates on May 31, 2009. Any processing facility interruption due to labour relations could also affect FNX. FNX is considering several possible alternatives for its Sudbury Mining Operations and will provide more detailed guidance when it becomes available. FNX has a strong cash position and, regardless of any production interruptions, is well funded to continue the planned development of the LFD for initial pre-production later in 2009. The Company could also continue with the planned underground development and detailed definition drilling at Podolsky. FNX will also implement its expanded surface exploration program utilizing the flow-through funds received after the quarter end. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table 1 - Financial and Operating Highlights Q1 2009 Q1 2008 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Consolidated ------------ Revenue 48,953 140,716 Net Earnings (Loss) (C$000) (26,151) 24,063 Basic Earnings (Loss) per Share (C$) (0.31) 0.28 Diluted Earnings per Share (C$) (0.31) 0.28 Adjusted Net Earnings (C$000) 5,100 24,063 Adjusted Earnings (Loss) per Share (C$) 0.06 0.28 Cash and Cash Equivalents (C$000) 114,572 29,137 Cash Flow from Operating Activities (C$000) (2,673) 55,796 Cash Flow per Share (C$) (0.03) 0.66 Adjusted EBITDA (C$000) 12,385 48,280 Mining Operations ----------------- Total Revenue (C$000) 35,485 91,323 Cash Operating Costs (C$000) 22,906 45,232 Cash Operating Margin (C$000) 12,579 46,091 Depreciation and Amortization (C$000) 3,032 8,593 Operating Margin (C$000) 9,547 37,498 Net Earnings (Loss) (C$000) (25,188) 25,019 Cash Flow From Operating Activities (C$000) 1,356 55,153 Total Ore Sold (tons) 105,044 284,899 Nickel Ore Sold (tons) 4,415 199,054 Grade of Nickel Ore Sold (%Ni) 1.8 1.3 Payable Metal Sold - Nickel (000 lbs) 1,177 3,492 Copper Ore Sold (tons) 100,629 85,845 Grade of Copper Ore Sold (%Cu) 5.6 4.2 Payable Metal Sold - Copper (000 lbs) 9,718 6,892 Payable Metal Sold - Total Precious Metals (oz) 7,415 7,272 Minesite Revenue per Ton Sold (C$) 366 321 Cash Operating Costs per Ton Sold (C$) 218 159 Minesite Cash Operating Margin per Ton Sold (C$) 148 162 Realized Nickel Price (US$/lb) 5.00 14.43 Realized Copper Price (US$/lb) 1.77 3.84 Exchange Rate (C$/US$) 1.24 1.00 DMC Mining Services ------------------- Total Revenue (C$000) 13,468 49,393 Cash Operating Costs (C$000) 13,273 46,984 Cash Operating Margin (C$000) 195 2,409 Net Earnings (Loss) (C$000) (963) (956) Cash Flow from Operating Activities (C$000) (4,029) 643 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Certain of the above items are considered to be non-GAAP performance measures (see below) Cash and cash equivalents as at March 31, 2009 were $114.6 million, compared to $129.6 million as at December 31, 2008. Working capital at the end of this reporting period was $137.2 million, compared to $130.1 million as at December 31, 2008. FNX continues to have zero debt. After including the $31.2 million dilution loss resulting from the GLW common share issuance, FNX incurred a loss of $26.2 million (($0.31) per share) on consolidated revenues of $49.0 million in the first quarter of 2009, compared to net earnings of $24.1 million ($0.28 per share) in the first quarter of 2008 on consolidated revenues of $140.7 million. Excluding the GLW dilution loss, the Company had adjusted earnings of $5.1 million ($0.06 per share). The quarterly loss also included a positive provisional pricing adjustment of $8.5 million and a non-taxable dilution loss of $31.2 million for the Company's share of the change in net book value of GLW as a result of their common share issuance in March of 2009. Table 1 summarizes the key financial and operating measures. Mining Operations Production from Sudbury Mining Operations during the quarter generated revenues of $35.5 million, compared to revenues of $91.3 million in the same period in 2008. Sudbury Mining Operations shipped a total of 105,000 tons of ore during the first quarter, primarily (88%) from the Podolsky Mine. This excludes approximately 74,500 tons of production which included normal inventory levels and a batch metallurgical test, stockpiled predominately on surface at the end of the quarter. Most of this inventory was processed in April 2009 and revenue and associated costs will be recognized in second quarter results. Total payable metals for the first quarter were 1.2 million pounds of nickel, 9.7 million pounds of copper and 7,415 ounces of platinum, palladium and gold. The average realized prices for metals in this quarter were US$5.00 per pound for nickel, US$1.77 per pound for copper, US$1,654 per ounce of gold, US$1,883 per ounce of platinum and US$278 per ounce for palladium, all of which were higher than quoted market prices and resulted in a positive price adjustment of $8.5 million. The average minesite revenue per ton of ore shipped was $366, while the average cash operating cost per ton of ore shipped was $218 leaving an average minesite cash operating margin per ton of ore shipped of $148, compared to $321, $159 and $162, respectively, in the same period of 2008. At the Podolsky Mine, production for this reporting period achieved the planned mining rate of 1,000 tons per day. Tight grade control delivered ore at 10% above planned grades and initial narrow vein mining in the upper parts of the 2000 Deposit progressed well and initial stage performances indicated that grades can be maintained (See Table 2). At the McCreedy West Mine, most of the stockpiled tonnage came from large scale, bulk mining at the PM Deposit, while 15--20% was contributed from narrow vein mining of the 700 Deposit. Only 12,700 tons of ore were shipped from the Levack Complex during the quarter consisting of 8,300 tons of copper-precious metal ore and 4,400 tons of nickel-copper ore (See Table 3). Capital expenditures during the quarter totaled $13.2 million versus a budget of $19.3 million, with the difference being delayed until later this year. First quarter safety performance for Sudbury Operations consisted of zero lost time injuries and eight medical aid injuries for a Lost Time Injury Frequency Rate ("LTIFR") of 0.0 and a Total Medical Injury Frequency Rate ("TMIFR") of 6.9. This compares to a LTIFR and TMIFR of 0.0 and 7.0 in the first quarter of 2008 and 0.0 and 6.7 respectively in the fourth quarter of 2008. There were no reportable environmental incidents in the first quarter of 2009. Tables 2 and 3 summarize first quarter production statistics from the Podolsky operations and Levack Complex, respectively. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table 2 - Production and Sales Summary Podolsky Mine Q1 - 2009 Q1 - 2008 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ore Sold (tons) Copper Ore 92,349 24,112 Grade of Ore Sold Copper Ore (%Cu) 6.0 11.7 Payable Metal Sold Nickel (000s lbs) 799 342 Copper (000s lbs) 9,352 4,635 TPM (ozs) 3,923 2,726 Metal Sales and Costs Minesite Revenue ($/ton of ore sold) 331 1,068 Cash Cost ($/ton of ore sold) 213 359 Minesite Cash Operating Margin ($/ton of ore sold) 118 709 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table 3 - Production and Sales Summary Levack Complex Q1 - 2009 Q1 - 2008 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ore Sold (tons) Nickel Ore 4,415 199,054 Copper Ore 8,280 61,733 Total Ore Sold 12,695 260,787 Grade of Ore Sold Nickel Ore (%Ni) 1.8 1.3 Copper Ore (%Cu) 1.4 1.2 Payable Metal Sold Nickel (000s lbs) 378 3,150 Copper (000s lbs) 366 2,257 TPM (ozs) 3,492 4,546 Metal Sales and Costs Minesite Revenue ($/ton of ore sold) 618 251 Cash Cost ($/ton of ore sold) 252 140 Minesite Cash Operating Margin ($/ton of ore sold) 366 111 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- At the Levack Mine, the primary focus for 2009 is the development of the LFD in preparation for initial pre-production later in 2009. The advance of the LFD access ramp during the quarter was ahead of its scheduled location by approximately 100 ft. The access ramp began this quarter at the 3135 Level and ended it at the 3310 Level, a vertical advance of 175 vertical ft. Level accesses are being cut at every vertical 60 ft and are positioned to allow future access on the 3270, 3330 and 3390 levels. Work to rehabilitate the Levack No. 2 Shaft below the 2950 Level to the bottom of the shaft at the 3600 Level continued to within 310 ft of the 3600 Level. Access to the 3600 Level is expected to be completed by mid-2009 to be followed by installation of the rock handling system and level rehabilitation. Development at the Podolsky Mine during this quarter focused on advancing the main access ramp and completing related lateral development. Total advancement during the first quarter was 1,891 ft and included lateral work on the 2000, 2075, 2300 and 2375 Levels plus access ramp development downwards to the 2150 Level and upwards 2225 Level. The main access ramp will be connected internally later in 2009 to support ongoing stope access. The 2000 Level was driven through Grey Gabbro ore and development ore was stored underground until metal accountabilities are in place. Exploration First quarter exploration expenditures were under budget by nearly 60% at $1.0 million and more than half of that was spent at Rob's/LFD. Exploration activities during first quarter were focused on Rob's/LFD development support and delineation. A backlog of core from Rob's/LFD underground drilling was cleared early in the quarter, while new drilling platforms were developed simultaneously. Drilling with one underground rig restarted in late January from the LFD access ramp. By the end of March, the drill rig had completed 10,147 ft in 16 completed holes and one in-progress hole from setups on the 3060 Level vent raise and 3130 Level remuck. Drilling from these two setups tested Rob's/LFD between the 3300 and 3350 Levels. The drilling traced a Ni-Cu trunk vein along a strike length of 325 ft on the 3300 Level and a mixture of Ni-Cu and Cu-Ni veins on the 3350 Level. Another drill will be moved onto 3270 and 3300 Level drilling platforms in the second quarter to test between the 3400 and 3500 Levels of Rob's/LFD. At the Podolsky Property, 2009 exploration will focus on the surface testing of the new quartz diorite offset environment discovered in 2008. During the first quarter, applications for permits and access planning were the focus in preparation for mobilizing a drill in May. At the end of the first quarter, an annual internal review of the Company's NI 43-101 reserve and resource estimates was completed and disclosed. The updated estimates were detailed in the Q4 and 2008 full year Management Discussion and Analysis, which is filed on SEDAR. On April 28, 2009, the Company announced the sale on a private placement basis of 2,173,914 flow-through common shares of the Company at a price of $6.90 per share for gross proceeds of $15.0 million. The proceeds will be used for Canadian Exploration Expenses ("CEE") related to the exploration of the Company's Canadian properties located in Ontario. DMC Mining Services Revenues from DMC totaled $13.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2009. The operating margin for the same period was $0.2 million. Net earnings for the period, after administrative costs, depreciation and amortization expenses, was a loss of $1.0 million. Operating cash flow for the period was $0.6 million and, after the net change in non-cash working capital of $4.6 million, cash flow from operating activities was ($4.0) million. Overall, the business climate in mining contracting in the United States remains robust mainly due to the gold sector, while in Canada contracting budgets have been severely impacted by current market conditions. As at the end of March, DMC had a backlog of work to complete totaling $36.8 million with 250 active employees. During the quarter, DMC reported one lost time injury and two medical aid injuries. The LTIFR for the quarter was 1.5 and the TMIFR was 4.6, compared to a LTIFR of 0.4 and a TMIFR of 3.5 for the first quarter of 2008. Investments The current investment portfolio consists primarily of 360 million common shares of GLW, which had a market value of approximately $90 million at quarter end. In addition, FNX has a renegotiated note receivable dated July 16, 2010 for $50 million of additional GLW common shares, which has both a call and put option on the issue price. This derivative must be fair valued at the end of each reporting period and any changes credited or debited to earnings. As a result, the carrying value of the note receivable as at March 31, 2009 was approximately $35.8 million. There were no sales or purchases in other investment positions during first quarter and their collective fair value as at March 31, 2009 was approximately $4.6 million. Share Capital On April 2, 2009, 1,672,000 common share purchase options were granted to directors, officers and employees of the Company in accordance with the Company's Stock Option Plan, representing 2% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company. In addition, 240,000 deferred share units were issued on April 2, 2009 to certain officers of the Company. There were 84,876,776 common shares and 3,694,667 stock options outstanding on April 2, 2009 for a total fully diluted share count of 88,571,443. There were also 313,249 deferred share units in effect after the April 2, 2009 issue.
