BATTLE MOUNTAIN GOLD COMPANY
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
Note 1. General Information
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
included herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission and include all adjustments, consisting only
of normal recurring accruals, which are, in the opinion of the management of
Battle Mountain Gold Company (BMG), necessary for a fair presentation. These
financial statements include the accounts of BMG and its wholly-owned and
majority-owned subsidiaries (the "Company"). Certain information and footnote
disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles have been
condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the
notes thereto which are included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K/A
(Amendment No. 3) (File No. 1-9666) for the year ended December 31, 1995.
Business combination
On July 19, 1996, Hemlo Gold Mines Inc. ("Hemlo Gold") was combined
with Battle Mountain Gold Company. The combination is being accounted for as a
pooling of interests, and accordingly, the accompanying financial statements
have been restated to include the accounts and operations of Hemlo Gold for all
periods prior to the merger.
Merger expenses
In connection with the combination of Battle Mountain Gold Company and
Hemlo Gold Mines Inc., $19.2 million of merger costs and expenses ($17.8 million
after-tax) were incurred and charged to expense during the third quarter of
1996. The merger expenses consisted primarily of legal, accounting and
investment banking fees and merger related payments made to BMG employees.
Note 2. Income Per Common Share
The effect of common stock equivalents is not included in the
calculation of income per share for the three and nine months ended September
30, 1996 because the effect is antidilutive. Fully diluted income per share is
not presented because the effect of other potentially dilutive securities is
antidilutive for the periods presented. The Exchangeable Shares of Battle
Mountain Canada Ltd. are treated as identical to shares of BMG's Common Stock
for income per common share calculation purposes.
Note 3. Stock-Based Compensation
In October 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 123, "Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation," with an effective date for fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 1995. As permitted under SFAS No. 123, the Company has
elected to continue to measure compensation costs for stock-based employee
compensation plans as prescribed by Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25,
"Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees." The Company will comply with the pro
forma disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123 in 1996 as required under the
pronouncement.

<PAGE> 7
Note 4. Asset Write-downs
In September 1996, the Company determined that long-lived assets at two
of its operating mines (Reona and San Cristobal) were impaired. In accordance
with the provisions of SFAS No. 121 and the Company's impairment policy, the
carrying value of the Reona mine was written down by $17.5 million before and
after tax and the carrying value of the San Cristobal mine owned by Niugini
Mining was written down by $17.6 million ($8.9 million net of minority
interests) before and after tax. The fair value of the assets was determined by
using the present value of the estimated future net cash flows from the project
discounted at 10%.
Note 5. Income and mining taxes.
Due to the recording of a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets in
accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 109, the Company recorded income tax
expense of $2.2 million and $12.5 million for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 1996, respectively, even though the Company incurred net losses of
$43 million and $15 million for the three and nine months ended September 30,
1996, respectively. The valuation allowance is related to both current period
net operating losses and foreign tax credits. The increased valuation allowance
is a direct result of BMG's decision to repatriate retained and future earnings
from the Company's newly acquired Canadian subsidiary. These earnings are taxed
at rates that are in excess of the U.S. federal income tax rate and will result
in excess foreign tax credits in the future. The Company does not foresee the
realization of all tax benefits related to these excess credits.

</TABLE>
* Effective in the second quarter of 1996, BMG began reporting its operating
costs on the basis adopted earlier this year by The Gold Institute. As a
result, in addition to mining, milling and plant level G&A expenses, cash
production costs include royalties, freight, smelting costs and allowances
and production taxes. Credits for by-product silver and copper are offset
against these cash production costs. This new North American standard also
provides for reporting on a cost per gold ounce basis, rather than cost per
equivalent gold ounce.
** Restated to conform with new operating cost reporting standard.
*** Excludes asset write-downs in 1996 and 1995 and ounces produced and
costs incurred at the Golden Giant mine during the 1995 strike.
(1) This joint venture is owned 55% by the Company and is proportionately
consolidated in the financial statements, therefore, the amounts presented
represent only the Company's share of ounces and costs.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
This discussion should be read in conjunction with Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K/A (File No. 1-9666) for the
year ended December 31, 1995 and the historical condensed consolidated financial
statements and notes thereto preceding this discussion.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Summary - At September 30, 1996, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of
$81.5 million, of which $45.4 million was held by BMG and its wholly-owned
subsidiaries, $25.6 million was held by Niugini Mining and $10.5 million was
held by Inti Raymi.
Operating Activities - The Company generated cash flow of $40.7 million from
operating activities during the nine months ended September 30, 1996, compared
with $32.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1995. The $8.1
million increase in cash flows from operations for the Company was primarily the
result of increased gold sales from the Golden Giant mine in 1996 compared with
1995 and was net of approximately $20 million in merger related expenses. Gold
production and sales were higher in 1996 because the mine had experienced a
strike during the third quarter of 1995. Cash flows for 1995 were also impacted
by the payment of the final installment of 1994 Canadian income taxes.
Investing Activities - The Company used cash of $40 million for capital
expenditures during the nine months ended September 30, 1996. Other, net
investing activities include $6 million in capitalized interest related to the
Company's investment in Lihir Gold Limited.
On July 19, 1996, the Company consummated a combination with Hemlo
Gold. Under the terms of the agreement Hemlo Gold became a wholly-owned
subsidiary of BMG and Hemlo Gold's shareholders received, for each share held,
1.48 shares of a newly issued class of exchangeable shares of Battle Mountain
Canada Ltd., the new name for the former Hemlo Gold. At the option of the
holder, each exchangeable share is exchangeable for one share of BMG common
stock and entitles its holder to dividend and other rights economically
equivalent to those of the BMG common stock and, through a voting trust, to vote
at meetings of stockholders of BMG.
On August 12, 1996, the Company announced that it would vote its 60
percent interest in Crown Butte Resources Ltd. ("Crown Butte") in favor of an
agreement entered into with the U.S. government that provides a framework for
Crown Butte to exchange its interests in the New World mining district near
Yellowstone National Park for government owned property interests having a value
of $65 million. Crown Butte would set aside $22.5 million from the sale of the
exchange property into an escrow account for reclamation purposes in the New
World district. Crown Butte would suspend permitting efforts pending the
completion of the exchange of property interests and such exchange would result
in the settlement of litigation under the Clean Water Act relating to historic
mining impacts and releases between the parties as to any further environmental
liabilities. The Company's decision was based on, among other things, reduced
economic expectations as a result of protracted permitting and potential
environmental liabilities related to historic mining at New World. The agreement
contains a number of conditions including the identification of the exchange
property by the U.S. government and acceptance by Crown Butte management and
subsequent approval by Crown Butte shareholders. Crown Butte may terminate the
agreement as early as February 1997 if acceptable exchange property is not
identified.
Financing Activities - During the nine months ended September 30, 1996, BMG
repaid all amounts outstanding under its revolving credit facilities and
terminated its $75 million revolving credit facility. BMG received $7.7 million
in dividends from Inti Raymi, net of applicable Bolivian withholding taxes,
during the period. Further dividends are expected from Inti Raymi as earnings
and cash become available. The Company is currently negotiating a new revolving
credit facility.

<PAGE> 12
Conclusion - The Company expects cash on hand, along with cash flows from
operations to be adequate to meet its cash needs at least through the end of
1997.
Forward Sales and Hedging - The Company has limited involvement with derivative
financial instruments and does not use them for trading purposes.
At September 30, 1996, Inti Raymi was party to three interest rate cap
agreements which were effective June 1, 1994, each with a term of three years.
The agreements entitle Inti Raymi to receive from counterparties on a quarterly
basis the amounts, if any, by which Inti Raymi's interest payments on a portion
of its LIBOR based floating-rate Kori Kollo project financing exceed various
fixed rates over the term of the caps.
The Company uses fixed forward sales contracts and spot deferred sales
contracts and may use put options to hedge anticipated sales of gold, silver and
copper. The following table summarizes such open contracts of the Company at
September 30, 1996:
Average Price
Amount Per Unit Period
------------ ------------- ---------------
BMG

Gold 107,000 oz $410 Oct 96 - Jul 97
Niugini Mining

Gold 48,000 oz A$563 Oct 96 & Dec 96

Copper 5,291,088 lb $1.11 Sep 96 & Feb 97
Inti Raymi
Forward sales contracts
Gold 28,000 oz $403 Oct 96 - Nov 96
The aggregate amount by which the net market value of open forward
sales contracts of the Company is greater than the spot price of $378 per ounce
of gold and $.86 per pound of copper, as of September 30, 1996 is $9.5 million,
of which $2.7 million is attributable to minority interests. The foregoing
amounts were calculated assuming conversion of Australian dollar contracts to
U.S. dollars at the September 1996 month end exchange rate of US$.79 to A$1.
Foreign Operations - The identifiable assets attributable to operations of the
Company outside the U.S. and Canada as of September 30, 1996, were approximately
$541 million and mining operations outside the U.S. and Canada represented
approximately 50 percent of the total gross revenues of the Company for the nine
months ended September 30, 1996. As a result, the Company is exposed to risks
normally associated with operations located outside the U.S. and Canada,
including political, economic, social and labor instabilities, as well as
foreign exchange controls, currency fluctuations and taxation changes.

Average London PM fix per ounce $385 $384 $391 $384
Sales - Sales increased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1996,
compared with the same periods of 1995 primarily because of increased sales
volumes from the Golden Giant mine. The increase in sales volumes at the Golden
Giant mine was partially offset by decreased sales from the Kori Kollo, Red Dome
and San Luis mines. Sales volumes for 1995 were unusually low at the Golden
Giant mine because of a strike during the third quarter of 1995, and 1996 sales
volumes increased to more normal levels. Sales volumes decreased at the Kori
Kollo and Red Dome mines because of reduced production caused by the mining and
processing of lower grade ore. An increase in the average realized price of gold
for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1996, compared with the same
periods of 1995 also contributed to the increase in sales. The average realized
price of gold increased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1996,
primarily because of increased spot gold prices. Average realized prices for the
three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1996, were higher than the
average London PM fix because of the Company's practice of pricing its gold
shipments 20 to 45 days in advance of shipment and gains realized from the
Company's hedging program.
In the second quarter of 1996, the Company began reporting its
operating costs on the basis adopted earlier this year by The Gold Institute. As
a result, in addition to mining, milling and plant level G&A expenses, cash
production costs include royalties, freight, smelting costs and allowances and
production taxes. Credits for by-product silver and copper are offset against
these cash production costs. This new North American standard also provides for
reporting on a cost per gold ounce basis, rather than cost per equivalent gold
ounce.

</TABLE>
Production Costs - Production costs increased on a total and per ounce of gold
sold basis for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1996,
compared with the corresponding periods of 1995. Total production costs
increased primarily because of the processing of an increased number of tons of
ore and because of increased materials costs. Per ounce production costs
increased at all of the Company's mines for the nine months ended September 30,
1996. The most significant increases in unit costs were at the Golden Giant and
Kori Kollo mines and resulted from lower mill head grades. Increases in
materials costs also contributed to the increase in unit costs at the Kori Kollo
mine. A change in the mine sequence, which resulted from the shut down of the
Golden Giant mine for shaft repairs in the fall of 1995, caused the lower head
grades at that mine.
The Company has been conducting additional drilling and other studies,
on factors such as ore control procedures, in an attempt to determine the
reasons for the lower mill head grades and any potential impact this may have
on, among other things, operating costs and estimated reserves at the Kori Kollo
mine.
Depreciation, depletion and amortization - Depreciation, depletion and
amortization (DD&A) increased in total and on the basis of cost per gold ounce
sold for the nine months ended September 30, 1996, compared with the
corresponding period of 1995. DD&A increased in total primarily as a result of
increased gold production and sales. DD&A increased on a per ounce sold basis
for the nine months ended September 30, 1996, primarily because of increased
DD&A per ounce sold at the Kori Kollo mine. The milling of more tons of ore than
last year to produce fewer ounces of gold caused the increase in DD&A per ounce
at the Kori Kollo mine. DD&A per ounce of gold sold decreased for the three
months ended September 30, 1996, compared with the three months ended September
30, 1995, primarily because of decreased DD&A at the Pajingo mine complex. These
unit costs decreased at the Pajingo complex because the assets were fully
depreciated, depleted and amortized upon completion of the processing of ore
from the Cindy deposit at the end of the second quarter. Third quarter gold and
silver production came from low-grade ore stockpiles remaining from the Scott
Lode deposit which had previously been fully depleted. The write-down of the
Reona mine assets and the San Cristobal mine assets will result in the reduction
of DD&A over the remaining useful lives of those assets.
Exploration, evaluation and other lease costs - Exploration, evaluation and
other lease costs increased for the nine months ended September 30, 1996,
because of the Company's increased exploration activities in Australia and South
America.
Merger expenses - In connection with the combination of BMG and Hemlo Gold,
$19.2 million of merger costs and expenses ($17.8 million after-tax, or $.08
per share) were
12
<PAGE> 15
incurred and charged to expense during the third quarter of 1996. The merger
expenses consisted primarily of legal, accounting and investment banking fees
and merger related payments made to BMG employees.
Asset write-downs - The Company has determined that long-lived assets at two of
its operating mines (Reona and San Cristobal) were impaired and, in accordance
with the provisions of SFAS No. 121 and the Company's impairment accounting
policy, the carrying value of the Reona mine as of September 30, 1996 was
written down by $17.5 million before and after tax and the carrying value of the
San Cristobal mine as of September 30, 1996 owned by Niugini Mining was written
down by $17.6 million ($8.9 million net of minority interests) before and after
tax. The Company also wrote down, as of the same date, certain receivables and
obsolete material in the amount of approximately $3 million. The write-down of
Reona was necessitated by lower performance expectations resulting from an
analysis of actual heap leach performance in the last six months of operations,
updated projections of heap leach performance as contrasted with previously
anticipated performance and higher estimates of reclamation and closure costs.
The write-down of San Cristobal was necessitated by recent detailed mine studies
and a review of related projects.
Other income, net - The Company had other income, net in the amount of $2.3
million and $2.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1996,
respectively, compared with other income, net of $.3 million and $6.1 million
for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1995. Other income, net for
the three months ended September 30, 1996, included gains on the sale of certain
exploration assets of the Company. Other income, net decreased for the nine
months ended September 30, 1996, compared with the nine months ended September
30, 1995, primarily because of the $4.2 million gain on the sale of the Plutonic
Bore exploration project in Australia during the second quarter of 1995. The
gains on the sale of exploration projects during the nine months ended September
30, 1996, were less than those in the same period of 1995. The 1996 gains were
also partially offset by other expense resulting primarily from foreign exchange
losses incurred in the first half of 1996 in the amount of approximately $2.1
million. Most of these foreign exchange losses resulted from losses recorded on
U.S. dollar cash deposits maintained by Niugini Mining (Australia) Pty. Ltd.
("NMA"), an Australian dollar functional currency subsidiary of Niugini Mining.
The losses occurred because of the strengthening of the Australian dollar
compared with the US dollar during the first quarter of 1996.
Income and mining taxes - Due to the recording of a valuation allowance for
deferred tax assets in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 109, the
Company recorded income tax expense of $2.2 million and $12.5 million for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 1996, respectively, even though the
Company incurred net losses of $43 million and $15 million for the three and
nine months ended September 30, 1996, respectively. The valuation allowance is
related to both current period net operating losses and foreign tax credits. The
increased valuation allowance is a direct result of BMG's decision to repatriate
retained and future earnings from the Company's newly acquired Canadian
subsidiary. These earnings are taxed at rates that are in excess of the U.S.
federal income tax rate and will result in excess foreign tax credits in the
future. The Company does not foresee the realization of all tax benefits related
to these excess credits. The effective income tax rate for 1995 was affected by
the recognition of deferred tax assets related to foreign tax credits.
Minority interest in net (income) loss - Net loss (income) attributable to
minority interests increased for the three and nine months ended September 30,
1996, compared with the same periods of 1995, primarily because of the
aforementioned write-down of the long-lived assets at Niugini Mining`s San
Cristobal mine.
