News Release

November 6, 2024
SSR MINING REPORTS THIRD QUARTER 2024 RESULTS
DENVER - SSR Mining Inc. (Nasdaq/TSX: SSRM, ASX: SSR) ("SSR Mining" or the “Company") reports consolidated financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2024, as well as an update on the February 13, 2024 incident at the Çöpler mine (the “Çöpler Incident” or the “Incident”).
Çöpler Update
Following the Çöpler Incident, the Company focused on four key priorities: (1) the recovery of our missing colleagues; (2) containment of the Incident and remediation of the site; (3) the investigation into the root cause of the Incident; and (4) preparing for the restart of the Çöpler mine.
With respect to our missing colleagues, all nine individuals have been recovered and returned to their families and we continue to support the families and the community members impacted by the Çöpler Incident.
All the planned containment infrastructure, including a grout curtain, coffer dam, and buttress, as well as pumping systems and the Sabırlı creek diversion, has been successfully installed and is proving to be effective. Public statements from Turkish government officials continue to reiterate that there has been no recordable contamination to local soil, water or air in the sampling locations.
In partnership with the Turkish authorities, the Company has continued to progress the remediation at the site. To date, over 16 million tonnes (approximately 86%) of the displaced heap leach material has been moved to temporary storage locations, including substantially all the displaced material from the Sabırlı Valley. As part of the remediation work, the heap leach pad will be permanently closed, and heap leach processing will no longer take place at Çöpler. We are continuing discussions with Turkish government officials around the final remediation plan, including the approval and construction of the east storage facility, which will permanently store the displaced material.
The Çöpler remediation and containment work is estimated to cost between $250.0 to $300.0 million and take a total of 24 to 36 months to complete. In the third quarter of 2024, $48.3 million was spent on remediation activities at Çöpler, bringing total remediation spend since April 1, 2024 to $103.3 million.
The initial design of the heap leach facility prepared prior to commencing production in 2010, and each subsequent expansion thereafter, was engineered, reviewed, and approved by independent, third-party engineering firms. Throughout the various stages of construction across the life of the heap leach facility, third-party reviews were also conducted to ensure conformance with the underlying engineering design parameters.
The investigations into the cause of the Çöpler Incident began shortly after the event. The Company has commissioned independent experts to review the design, construction, and operation of the heap leach facility. To date, this review has not identified any material non-conformance with the construction or operation of the heap leach facility relative to the third-party engineered design parameters.
SSR Mining continues to work closely with the relevant authorities to advance the required permits for the restart of the Çöpler mine. Once all necessary regulatory approvals, including the operating permits, are reinstated, it is anticipated that initial operations at Çöpler could restart within 20 days and would consist of processing a combination of stockpiled ore and ore mined from Çakmaktepe, while the remediation work continues.

As previously disclosed, in November 2023, prior to the Çöpler Incident, a legal challenge was filed in a local court against the Çöpler mine’s environmental impact assessment, which was approved in 2021 (the “2021 EIA”). On August 20, 2024, the local court issued a decision cancelling the 2021 EIA due to insufficiencies in the 2021 EIA approval process. The Turkish Ministry of Environment, Urbanization and Climate Change, who had originally approved the 2021 EIA, has filed an appeal of the decision, and the Company has filed a simultaneous intervener appeal as well. As previously disclosed, with the cancellation of the 2021 EIA, the operating guidelines at Çöpler revert to those outlined in the Company’s prior Environmental Impact Assessment, which was issued in 2014 (the “2014 EIA”). Among other operating considerations, the 2014 EIA prescribes a lower throughput rate for the sulfide plant operations of 6,000 tonnes per day, as compared to 9,000 tonnes per day under the 2021 EIA.
At this time, we are not able to estimate or predict when and under what conditions we will resume operations at Çöpler. Additionally, SSR Mining cannot, at this time, assess the entire scope of the impact of operating under the 2014 EIA. SSR Mining held $334.3 million in total cash at the end of the third quarter, with total available liquidity of $834.0 million and expected strong free cash flow generation from Marigold, Seabee and Puna in the fourth quarter of 2024. SSR Mining remains well positioned to continue remediation efforts ahead of a potential restart of operations at Çöpler.
For additional information on the Çöpler Incident, including a discussion of the associated risks, see the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 filed on February 27, 2024, as well as the Company’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2024 filed on May 8, 2024, for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 filed on July 31, 2024, and for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 filed on November 6, 2024. Further updates on the Çöpler Incident, as and when available, will continue to be provided through press releases and posts to the Company’s website.

Third Quarter 2024 Summary: (1)
(All figures are in US dollars unless otherwise noted)
Operating results: Third quarter 2024 production was 97,429 gold equivalent ounces. In the third quarter of 2024, operations at Çöpler remained suspended following the February 13, 2024 incident. Additionally, operations at Seabee were suspended on August 21, 2024 due to forest fires in the vicinity of the mine. Seabee successfully restarted operations on October 11, 2024. Year-to-date, the Company produced 275,113 gold equivalent ounces at a consolidated cost of sales of $1,312 per ounce and all-in sustaining costs (“AISC”) of $1,886 per ounce. The Company’s year-to-date AISC includes $49.2 million in cash care and maintenance costs, or approximately $179 per gold equivalent ounce, of which $41.5 million was incurred at Çöpler and $7.7 million was incurred at Seabee.
Financial results: Net income attributable to SSR Mining shareholders in the third quarter of 2024 was $10.6 million, or $0.05 per diluted share, including $29.8 million in care and maintenance costs incurred at Çöpler and $9.6 million at Seabee. Adjusted net income attributable to SSR Mining shareholders in the third quarter of 2024 was $6.4 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, after adjusting for items related to the Çöpler Incident and other tax impacts. In the third quarter of 2024, operating cash flow was $(1.3) million, and free cash flow was $(34.1) million.
Cash and liquidity position: As of September 30, 2024, the Company had a cash and cash equivalent balance of $334.3 million and total liquidity of $834.0 million inclusive of its revolving credit facility and accompanying accordion feature. At the end of the third quarter, the Company had no borrowings outstanding under the revolving credit facility, exclusive of de minimus letters of credit, and was in compliance with its covenants.
Çöpler remediation: As of September 30, 2024, substantially all of the heap leach material displaced during the February 13th incident had been removed from the Sabırlı Valley. Remediation spend in the third quarter totaled $48.3 million, bringing total remediation spend since April 1, 2024 to $103.3 million.
Marigold operations: Gold production was 48,189 ounces in the third quarter of 2024 at cost of sales of $1,573 per payable ounce and AISC of $1,828 per payable ounce. Year-to-date, Marigold produced 108,560 ounces of gold at cost of sales of $1,484 per payable ounce and AISC of $1,749 per payable ounce. Marigold remains on track for full-year 2024 production guidance of 155,000 to 175,000 ounces of gold. Reflecting increased royalty and maintenance components costs the Company now expects full-year mine site cost of sales of $1,450 to $1,480 per payable ounce and AISC of $1,650 to $1,680 per payable ounce at Marigold in 2024.
Seabee operations: Gold production was 10,252 ounces in the third quarter of 2024, reflecting the temporary suspension of operations at Seabee due to forest fires. Employees were cleared to return to the site on September 23, 2024 and production restarted on October 11, 2024. Third quarter cost of sales of $1,280 per payable ounce and AISC of $2,301 per payable ounce reflected fewer ounces sold and the inclusion of $7.7 million in cash care and maintenance costs from the temporary suspension. Full-year 2024 production guidance for Seabee is now 65,000 to 70,000 ounces of gold at mine site cost of sales of $1,135 to $1,165 per payable ounce and AISC of $1,725 to $1,755 per payable ounce.
Puna operations: Silver production was 2.9 million ounces in the third quarter of 2024 at cost of sales of $16.06 per payable ounce of silver and AISC of $15.37 per payable ounce of silver. The average realized silver price for Puna sales in the third quarter of 2024 was $30.05 per ounce, showcasing the mine’s significant margins in the current silver price environment. Quarterly process plant throughput averaged over 5,275 tonnes per day, a second consecutive quarterly record for the mine. Year-to-date, Puna produced 7.5 million ounces of silver at cost of sales of $16.27 per payable ounce and AISC of $15.36 per payable ounce. Reflecting higher throughputs and grades than originally expected, full-year 2024 production guidance at Puna has been increased to 10.0 to 10.5 million ounces of silver at unchanged mine site cost of sales of $16.50 to $18.00 per payable ounce and AISC of $14.75 to $16.25 per payable ounce.
Hod Maden: During the third quarter of 2024, engineering studies and site preparation activities continued as the Company continues to advance the Hod Maden project through to a construction decision. In the third quarter of 2024, approximately $10.9 million were spent at Hod Maden. The Company will provide guidance on its expected 2025 capital spend at Hod Maden with its annual 2025 guidance.
(1)The Company reports non-GAAP financial measures including adjusted attributable net income, adjusted attributable net income per share, cash provided by (used in) operating activities before working capital adjustments, free cash flow, free cash flow before changes in working capital, net cash (debt), cash costs and AISC per ounce sold (a common measure in the mining industry), to manage and evaluate its operating performance at its mines.

Cost of sales excludes depreciation, depletion, and amortization.

For the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, Marigold produced 48,189 and 83,272 ounces of gold, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, Marigold produced 108,560 and 195,694 ounces of gold, respectively. During the third quarter of 2024, Marigold reported cost of sales of $1,573 per payable ounce and AISC of $1,828 per payable ounce.
Marigold remains on track for full-year 2024 production guidance of 155,000 to 175,000 ounces of gold. The Company now expects full-year mine site cost of sales of $1,450 to $1,480 per payable ounce and AISC of $1,650 to $1,680 per payable ounce at Marigold in 2024. Approximately 60% of the increase to AISC guidance is the result of increased royalty costs reflecting a higher year-to-date gold price against the Company’s initial forecasts. The remainder of the cost increase is associated with higher than forecast costs for components and parts utilized in equipment maintenance. These cost pressures are expected to persist into 2025.

For the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, Puna produced 2.9 and 2.6 million ounces of silver, respectively with the year-over-year increase primarily driven by more ore tonnes milled. Quarterly process plant throughput averaged over 5,275 tonnes per day, a second consecutive quarterly record for the mine. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, Puna produced 7.5 and 6.9 million ounces of silver, respectively. During the third quarter of 2024, Puna reported cost of sales of $16.06 per payable ounce and AISC of $15.37 per payable ounce. Year-to-date, the Company reported cost of sales of $16.27 per payable ounce and AISC of $15.36 per payable ounce.
Reflecting higher throughputs and grades than originally expected, full-year 2024 production guidance at Puna has been increased to 10.0 to 10.5 million ounces of silver at unchanged mine site cost of sales of $16.50 to $18.00 per payable ounce and AISC of $14.75 to $16.25 per payable ounce.

Cautionary Note Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We have included certain non-GAAP financial measures to assist in understanding the Company’s financial results. The non-GAAP financial measures are employed by us to measure our operating and economic performance and to assist in decision-making, as well as to provide key performance information to senior management. We believe that, in addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, certain investors and other stakeholders will find this information useful to evaluate our operating and financial performance; however, these non-GAAP performance measures – including total cash, total debt, net cash (debt), cash costs, all-in sustaining costs (“AISC”) per ounce sold, adjusted net income (loss) attributable to shareholders, cash generated by (used in) operating activities before changes in working capital, free cash flow, and free cash flow before changes in working capital – do not have any standardized meaning. These performance measures are intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. Our definitions of our non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. These non-GAAP measures should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements.

Non-GAAP Measure – Net Cash (Debt)
Net cash (debt) are used by management and investors to measure the Company's underlying operating performance. The Company believes that net cash (debt) is a useful measure for shareholders as it helps evaluate liquidity and available cash.

The following table provides a reconciliation of cash and cash equivalents to net cash:

Total debt$230,000$230,920
Net cash (debt)$104,341$261,574

In addition to net cash and net debt, the Company also uses Total liquidity to measure its financial position. Total liquidity is calculated as Cash and cash equivalents plus Restricted cash and borrowing capacity under current revolving credit facilities, including accordion features. As of September 30, 2024 and as of December 31, 2023, the Company’s $400 million credit facility was undrawn, with a $100 million accordion feature.

Non-GAAP Measure - Cash Costs and AISC
Cash Costs and All-In Sustaining Costs (“AISC”) per payable ounce of gold and respective unit cost measures are non-U.S. GAAP metrics developed by the World Gold Council to provide transparency into the costs associated with producing gold and provide a standard for comparison across the industry. The World Gold Council is a market development organization for the gold industry.

The Company uses cash costs per ounce of precious metals sold and AISC per ounce of precious metals to monitor its operating performance internally. The most directly comparable measure prepared in accordance with GAAP is cost of sales. The Company believes this measure provides investors and analysts with useful information about its underlying cash costs of operations and the impact of by-product credits on its cost structure. The Company also believes it is a relevant metric used to understand its operating profitability. When deriving the cost of sales associated with an ounce of precious metal, the Company includes by-product credits, which allows management and other stakeholders to assess the net costs of gold and silver production.

AISC includes total cost of sales incurred at the Company's mining operations, which forms the basis of cash costs. Additionally, the Company includes sustaining capital expenditures, sustaining mine-site exploration and evaluation costs, reclamation cost accretion and amortization, and general and administrative expenses. This measure seeks to reflect the ongoing cost of gold and silver production from current operations; therefore, growth capital is excluded. The Company determines sustaining capital to be capital expenditures that are necessary to maintain current production and execute the current mine plan. The Company determines growth capital to be those payments used to develop new operations or related to projects at existing operations where those projects will materially benefit the operation.

The Company believes that AISC provides additional information to management and stakeholders that provides visibility to better define the total costs associated with production and better understanding of the economics of the Company's operations and performance compared to other producers.

In deriving the number of ounces of precious metal sold, the Company considers the physical ounces available for sale after the treatment and refining process, commonly referred to as payable metal, as this is what is sold to third parties.

Non-GAAP Measure - Adjusted Attributable Net Income (loss) and Adjusted Attributable Net Income (Loss) Per Share
Adjusted attributable net income (loss) and adjusted attributable net income (loss) per share are used by management to measure the Company's underlying operating performance. We believe this measure is also useful for shareholders to assess the Company’s operating performance. The most directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP are net income (loss) attributable to SSR Mining shareholders and net income (loss) per share attributable to SSR Mining shareholders. Adjusted attributable net income (loss) is defined as net income (loss) adjusted to exclude the after-tax impact of specific items that are significant, but not reflective of the Company's underlying operations, including the expected impacts of Çöpler Incident; inflationary impacts on tax balances; transaction, integration; and other non-recurring items.

The following table provides a reconciliation of Net income (loss) attributable to SSR Mining shareholders to adjusted net income (loss) attributable to SSR Mining shareholders:

(24)The effects of the Çöpler Incident represent the following unusual and nonrecurring charges: (1) reclamation costs of $9.0 million and remediation costs of $209.3 million (amounts are presented net of pre-tax attributable to non-controlling interest of $50.1 million); (2) impairment charges of $91.4 million related to plans to permanently close the heap leach pad (amount is presented net of pre-tax attributable to non-controlling interest of $22.8 million); and (3) contingencies and expenses of $10.3 million (amount is presented net of pre-tax attributable to non-controlling interest of $2.6 million). Refer to Note 3 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further details related to the impact of the Çöpler Incident.
(25)For the year ended September 30, 2024, impairments of long-lived and other assets are related to remote equipment damaged due to forest fires at Seabee. For the year ended September 30, 2023, impairments of long-lived and other assets represent non-cash write-downs of various assets and materials and supplies inventories.
(26)Represents charges related to a one-time tax imposed by Türkiye to fund earthquake recovery efforts, offset by a release of an uncertain tax position.
(27)Adjusted net income (loss) per diluted share attributable to SSR Mining shareholders is calculated using diluted common shares, which are calculated in accordance with GAAP. For the three months ended September 30, 2024, $1.2 million interest saving on 2019 Notes, net of tax, and potentially dilutive shares of approximately 13.0 million were excluded from the computation of diluted loss per common share attributable to SSR Mining shareholders in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations as they were antidilutive. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, $3.7 million interest saving on 2019 Notes, net of tax, and potentially dilutive shares of approximately 13.3 million were excluded from the computation of diluted loss per common share attributable to SSR Mining shareholders in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations as they were antidilutive. These interest savings and shares were excluded in the computation of adjusted net income (loss) per diluted share attributable to SSR Mining shareholders for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 as they were antidilutive.

Non-GAAP Measure - Free Cash Flow, Cash Flow from Operating Activities before Changes in Working Capital, and Free Cash Flow before Changes in Working Capital
The Company uses free cash flow, cash flow from operating activities before changes in working capital, and free cash flow before changes in working capital to supplement information in its condensed consolidated financial statements. The most directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP is cash provided by operating activities. The Company believes that in addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with US GAAP, certain investors and analysts use this information to evaluate the ability of the Company to generate cash flow after capital investments and build the Company's cash resources. The Company calculates free cash flow by deducting cash capital spending from cash generated by operating activities. The Company does not deduct payments made for business acquisitions.

The following table provides a reconciliation of cash provided by operating activities to free cash flow:
(in thousands of US dollars, except per share data)Three Months Ended
September 30,
Nine Months Ended
September 30,
2024202320242023
Cash provided by operating activities (GAAP)$(1,349)$135,256$(54,849)$218,566
Expenditures on mineral properties, plant, and equipment$(32,750)$(47,456)$(104,961)$(164,633)
Free cash flow (non-GAAP)$(34,099)$87,800$(159,810)$53,933

We also present operating cash flow before working capital adjustments and free cash flow before working capital adjustments as non-GAAP cash flow measures to supplement our operating cash flow and free cash flow (non-GAAP) measures. We believe presenting both operating cash flow and free cash flow before working capital adjustments, which reflects an exclusion of net changes in operating assets and liabilities, will be useful for investors because it presents cash flow that is actually generated from the continuing business. The Company calculates cash generated by (used in) operating activities before changes in working capital by adjusting cash generated by (used in) operating activities by the net change in operating assets and liabilities. The Company also calculates free cash flow before changes in working capital by deducting cash capital spending from cash flow from operating activities before changes in working capital.

The following table provides a reconciliation of cash provided by operating activities to cash generated by (used in) operating activities before changes in working capital, and free cash flow before changes in working capital:
