As quoted in the market report:
Earnings for the quarter were impacted by a noncash goodwill impairment charge related to the El Chanate mine, which AuRico said was identified as part of the company’s normal-course value impairment testing. The charge had no impact on the budgeted life-of-mine production or cash flow profiles.
