1.
THE COMPANY
SSR Mining Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, "SSR Mining," or the "Company”) is incorporated under the laws of the Province of British Columbia, Canada. The Company's common shares are listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX) in Canada and the Nasdaq Global Select Market (Nasdaq) in the U.S. under the symbol "SSRM" and the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) in Australia under the symbol "SSR."
SSR Mining is a precious metals mining company with
four
producing assets located in the United States, Türkiye, Canada and Argentina. The Company is principally engaged in the operation, acquisition, exploration and development of precious metal resource properties located in Türkiye and the Americas. The Company produces gold doré as well as copper, silver, lead and zinc concentrates. The Company’s diversified asset portfolio is comprised of high-margin, long-life assets located in some of the world's most prolific metal districts.The Company’s focus is on safe, profitable gold and silver production from its Çöpler Gold Mine ("Çöpler") in Erzincan, Türkiye, Marigold mine ("Marigold") in Nevada, USA, Seabee Gold Operation ("Seabee") in Saskatchewan, Canada, and Puna Operations ("Puna") in Jujuy, Argentina, and to advance, as market and project conditions permit, its principal development projects and commercial production.
In December 2021, Türkiye began the move to change its internationally recognized official name in English from Turkey to Türkiye. In June 2022, the United Nations announced it would recognize the new name. The Company is pleased to adopt the new name.
At the end of the second quarter of 2022, Türkiye’s Ministry of Environment, Urbanization and Climate Change (“Ministry of Environment”) temporarily suspended operations at the Çöpler mine pending implementation of improvement initiatives requested as a result of a leak of leach solution on June 21, 2022. The Company completed these initiatives and received the required regulatory approvals from Türkiye’s Government authorities on September 22, 2022 and all operations were subsequently restarted at the Çöpler mine. During the temporary suspension,
Care and maintenance
expense was recorded in the Statements of Operations which represents direct costs and depreciation incurred at Çöpler.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Risks and Uncertainties
As a mining company, the revenue, profitability and future rate of growth of the Company are substantially dependent on the prevailing prices for gold, silver, lead and zinc. The prices of these metals are volatile and affected by many factors beyond the Company’s control, and there can be no assurance that commodity prices will not be subject to wide fluctuations in the future. A substantial or extended decline in commodity prices could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, cash flows, access to capital and the quantities of reserves that the Company can economically produce. The carrying value of the Company’s
Mineral properties, plant and equipment
;
Inventories
;
Deferred income tax assets
; and
Goodwill
are sensitive to the outlook for commodity prices. A decline in the Company’s price outlook could result in material impairment charges related to these assets.

Reclassifications
Certain amounts and disclosures in prior years have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2022-04, “Liabilities - Supplier Finance Programs: Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations,” which makes changes to add certain disclosure requirements for a buyer in a supplier finance program. The amendments require a buyer that uses supplier finance programs to make annual disclosures about the program’s key terms, the balance sheet presentation of related amounts, the confirmed amount outstanding at the end of the period, and associated rollforward information. Only the amount outstanding at the end of the period must be disclosed in interim periods. The amendments are effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 on a retrospective basis, including interim periods within those fiscal years, except for the requirement to disclose rollforward information, which is effective prospectively for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. Early adoption is permitted upon issuance of the update. The provisions of this new pronouncement are being reviewed, but it is not expected this guidance will have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements.

ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES
Acquisitions
On April 14, 2022, the Company completed the purchase of all the issued and outstanding common shares of Taiga Gold Corporation (“Taiga Gold”), which holds the exploration and evaluation stage resources in Saskatchewan, Canada in proximity to the Company’s Seabee mine and Fisher project. The transaction was accounted for as an asset acquisition for total consideration of $
24.8
million. The total consideration was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values on the acquisition date, which consisted primarily of cash and cash equivalents of $
4.7
million, exploration and evaluation assets of $
27.8
million, and a related deferred tax liability of $
7.5
million.
Divestitures
On July 6, 2022, the Company completed the sale of the Pitarrilla project in Durango, Mexico, included in the Exploration, evaluation and development properties segment, to Endeavour Silver Corp. ("Endeavour Silver"). The consideration received included cash o

INCOME AND MINING TAXES
The Company’s consolidated effective income tax rate was
7.1
% for the first nine months of 2022 compared to
9.2
% for the first nine months of 2021.The primary driver of the change in the effective rate is foreign currency fluctuations, particularly with the devaluation of the Turkish Lira relative to the USD, as well as changes in book income in foreign jurisdictions with varying tax rates and an uncertain tax position. The Company’s statutory tax rate for the period is
27.0
%. The effective rate differs from the statutory rate primarily due to foreign exchange and jurisdictional mix of earnings with different tax rates.

Unrecognized Tax Benefits
The Company records uncertain tax positions on the basis on a two-step process in which (1) the Company determines whether it is more likely than not that the tax positions will be sustained on the basis of the technical merits of the position and (2) for those tax positions meeting the “more-likely-than-not” recognition threshold, the Company recognizes the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50% likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement with the related tax authority.
A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits, inclusive of interest and penalties, is as follows (in thousands):

INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE
The Company calculates basic net income (loss) per share using, as the denominator, the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share uses, as its denominator, the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period plus the effect of potential dilutive shares during the period.
Potential dilutive common shares include stock options, Restricted Share Units (“RSUs”), RSU Replacement Units, and convertible notes for periods in which the Company has reported net income (loss).

Fair value accounting establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:
Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;
Level 2 - Quoted prices in markets that are not active, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices or inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability and model-based valuation techniques (e.g. the Black-Scholes model) for which all significant inputs are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; and

Level 3 - Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (supported by little or no market activity).
As required by accounting guidance, assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
The following tables set forth the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring (at least annually) and nonrecurring basis by level within the fair value hierarchy (in thousands):

Marketable securities of publicly quoted companies, consisting of investments, are valued using a market approach based upon unadjusted quoted prices in an active market obtained from securities exchanges.
(2)
The Company manages a portion of its exposure to fluctuation in diesel prices and foreign currency exchange rates through hedges. The Company’s derivative asset and liabilities are valued using pricing models with inputs derived from observable market data, including quoted prices in active markets. The Company’s provisional metal sales contracts, included in
Trade and other receivables
in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, are valued using inputs derived from observable market data, including quoted commodity forward prices. The inputs do not involve significant management judgment. Such instruments are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
(3)
Certain items of deferred consideration are included in Level 3, as certain assumptions used in the calculation of the fair value are not based on observable market data.

Convertible Debt
2019 Notes
On March 19, 2019, the Company issued $
230.0
million of
2.50
% convertible senior notes due in 2039 (the “2019 Notes”) for net proceeds of $
222.9
million after payment of commissions and expenses related to the offering of $
7.1
million. The 2019 Notes mature on April 1, 2039 and bear an interest rate of
2.50
% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on April 1 and October 1 of each yea
r. The 2019 Notes are convertible into the Company's common shares at a fixed conversion rate, subject to certain anti-dilution adjustments. In addition, if certain fundamental changes occur, holders of the 2019 Notes may be entitled to an increased conversion rate.
The Company had a conversion price change on its 2019 Notes during the quarter ended September 30, 2022. As a result of ongoing dividends and in accordance with the 2019 Notes Agreement, the conversion price for the 2019 Notes was adjusted to
55.4018
common shares per $
1,000
principal amount of the 2019 Notes effective on August 11, 2022.
Prior to April 1, 2023, the Company may not redeem the 2019 Notes, except in the event of certain changes in Canadian tax law. On or after April 1, 2023 and prior to April 1, 2026, the Company may redeem all or part of the 2019 Notes for cash, but only if the last reported sales price of its common shares for
20
or more trading days in a period of
30
consecutive trading days exceeds
130
% of the conversion price in effect on each such trading day. On or after April 1, 2026, the Company may redeem the 2019 Notes in full or in part, for cash.
Holders of the 2019 Notes have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or part of their 2019 Notes on April 1 of each of 2026, 2029 and 2034, or upon certain fundamental corporate changes. The repurchase price will be equal to par plus accrued and unpaid interest.

The Company does not have any financial covenants in relation to the 2019 Notes.
Term Loan
On September 16, 2020, in connection with the acquisition of the
Çöpler mine
, the Company assumed a term loan (the "Term Loan"), with a fair value of $
245.0
million as of the date of acquisition, with a syndicate of lenders (BNP Paribas (Suisse) SA, ING Bank NV, Societe Generale Corporate & Investment Banking and UniCredit S.P.A.). The Term Loan bears interest at the London Inter-bank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") plus a fixed interest rate margin in the range of
3.50
% to
3.70
% depending on the tranche. The Term Loan has no mandatory hedging or cash sweep requirements, no prepayment penalties, and final repayment is scheduled in the fourth quarter of 2023.
Restricted cash accounts must be maintained while the Term Loan is outstanding. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, $
33.2
million and $
32.9
million of restricted cash relates to the Term Loan, respectively. Restricted cash is classified as a non-current asset in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
As a result of the temporarily suspended operations at the Çöpler mine during most of the third quarter of 2022, the Company was not in compliance with certain financial covenants in relation to the Term Loan as of September 30, 2022. The Company is in discussions with the lenders to obtain a waiver for the non-compliance event. If the Company is unable to obtain a waiver, the lenders may accelerate the repayment schedule and the entire balance of the Term Loan would become due, at which time the Company would use available cash to repay the outstanding borrowings in full. All future remaining principal and interest payment amounts under the Term Loan remain unchanged. As of September 30, 2022, the Company reclassified $
17.5
million of the Term Loan, which is scheduled to be repaid in the fourth quarter of 2023, to
Current portion of debt
as a result of the noncompliance with financial covenants. With this reclassification, the entire balance of the Term Loan is included in
Current portion of debt
.
Amended Credit Agreement
On June 7, 2021, the Company amended its existing Credit Agreement to extend the maturity to June 8, 2025 and increase the Credit Agreement to $
200.0
million with a $
100.0
million accordion feature (the "Amended Credit Agreement"). Amounts drawn under the Amended Credit Agreement are subject to variable interest rates at LIBOR plus an applicable margin ranging from
2
% to
3
%, based on the Company's net leverage ratio. As of September 30, 2022, the Company was in compliance with its covenants. As of September 30, 2022,
no
borrowings were outstanding on the Amended Credit Agreement, $
199.1
million of borrowing capacity was available and outstanding letters of credit totaled $
0.9
million.
The Company was in compliance with its externally imposed financial covenants in relation to the Amended Credit Agreement.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
General
Estimated losses from loss contingencies are accrued by a charge to income when information is available prior to the issuance of the financial statements that indicates it is probable that a liability could be incurred, and the amount of the loss can by reasonably estimated. Legal expenses associated with the loss contingency are expensed as incurred. If a loss contingency is not probable or reasonably estimable, disclosure of the loss contingency is made in the financial statements when it is at least reasonably possible that a material loss could be incurred.
Environmental matters
The Company uses surety bonds to support certain environmental bonding obligations. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had surety bonds totaling $
117.3
million and $
117.0
million outstanding, respectively.
Other Commitments and Contingencies
The Company is involved in legal proceedings related to its normal course of business. Management does not believe that these legal cases will have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of the operations.

The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis (“MD&A”) provides information that management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of the consolidated financial condition and results of operations of SSR Mining Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”). The Company uses certain non-GAAP financial measures in this MD&A; for a description of each of these measures, please see the discussion under "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" in Part I, Item 2, Management’s Discussion and Analysis herein.
This item should be read in conjunction with the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes thereto included in this quarterly report. Additionally, the following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements, the related Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and the discussion of Business Properties included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 23, 2022, as amended on July 12, 2022, solely to reorganize information included in Part I, Item 2.
Business Overview
SSR Mining is a precious metals mining company with four producing assets located in the United States, Türkiye, Canada and Argentina. The Company is primarily engaged in the operation, acquisition, exploration and development of precious metal resource properties located in Türkiye and the Americas. The Company produces gold doré as well as copper, silver, lead and zinc concentrates. The Company’s diversified asset portfolio is comprised of high-margin, long-life assets located in some of the world's most prolific metal districts.
Refer to the “Third Quarter Highlights”, “Consolidation Results of Operations”, “Results of Operations”, “Liquidity and Capital Resources” and Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for quarterly information for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.
At the end of the second quarter of 2022, Türkiye’s Ministry of Environment, Urbanization and Climate Change (“Ministry of Environment”) temporarily suspended operations at the Çöpler mine pending implementation of improvement initiatives requested as a result of a leak of leach solution on June 21, 2022. The Company completed these initiatives and received the required regulatory approvals from Türkiye’s Government authorities on September 22, 2022 and all operations were subsequently restarted at the Çöpler mine. During the temporary suspension,
Care and maintenance
expense was recorded in the Statements of Operations which represents direct costs and depreciation incurred at Çöpler.
On July 6, 2022, the Company completed the sale of the Pitarrilla project in Durango, Mexico to Endeavour Silver Corp. ("Endeavour Silver") for consideration consisting of $35.0 million
(1)
in common shares of Endeavor Silver, $35.0 million in cash, and a 1.25% net smelter returns royalty on the Pitarrilla property. For further information, see Note 3 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
The Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Taiga Gold Corporation (“Taiga Gold”) at a price of CAD $0.265 per Taiga Gold share on April 14, 2022, representing total consideration of $24.8 million. The transaction materially expands the Company’s presence in Saskatchewan, Canada, a core jurisdiction, by adding five new properties, which provide new exploration targets stretching south from the Seabee mine to the Company’s 100%-owned Amisk property. Further, the acquisition consolidates a 100% interest in the Fisher property contiguous to the Seabee mine. The Company will leverage its existing teams and infrastructure to advance the exploration of these assets.
(1)
The fair value of the common shares of Endeavour Silver on July 6, 2022 was $25.6 million. See Note 3 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.

Revenue
For the three months ended September 30, 2022, revenue decreased by $156.2 million, or 48.4%, to $166.6 million, as compared to $322.8 million for the
three months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease was mainly due t
o a decrease in gold ounces sold of 53.9%, and
a 4.6% decrease in average realized gold prices. At Çöpler, gold sales decreased by $135.6 million, or 97.0%, due to the
temporary suspension of operations.
At Marigold, gold sales decreased by $11.4 million, or 11.9%,
due to fewer gold ounces sold and a 4.5% decrease in the average realized gold price. Marigold’s gold ounces produced remained consistent; however, ounces sold was lower due to the timing of sales.
At Seabee, gold sales decreased by $7.6 million, or 18.6%, due to a lower feed grade, accounting for 14.2% of the reduction and a 4.0% decrease in the average realized gold price. At Puna, sales increased by $3.8 million, or 9.2%, primarily due to 50.3% more ounces of silver sold partially offset by a 21.1% lower average realized silver price. The increase
in silver ounces sold was due to higher silver mill feed grade.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, revenue decreased by $224.6 million, or 21.1%, to $841.7 million as compared to $1,066.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease
was mainly due to
a
reduction in total gold equivalent ounces sold of 23.2%, partially offset by a 3.7% increase in average realized gold prices. At Çöpler, gold sales decreased by $183.9 million, or 42.6%, due to the
temporary suspension of operations.
At Marigold, gold sales decreased by $82.6 million, or 25.7%,
due to 25.6%
fewer gold
ounces sold, offset partially by a 3.3% increase in the average realized gold price. Marigo
ld’s gold ounces sold decreased as a result of fewer tonnes stacked in the nine months prior to production and fewer ounces leached as the result of slower leaching due to fines in the ore from the north pits.
At Seabee, gold sales increased by $49.5 million, or 32.2%, due to a 4.5% increase in the average realized gold price and 28.8%
more
gold ounces sold. Seabee
gold ounces sold increased as the result of high mill feed grade. At Puna, sales were in line with the prior period as Puna sold 7.8% more ounces of silver at a 10.4% lower realized silver price
.
Production costs

temporary suspension of operations
. Produc
tion costs at Marigold increased $3.4 million, or 6.8%, due to higher fuel and reagent costs. Production costs at Seabee increased $2.8 million, or 18.7%, due to higher operational costs resulting from inflationary pressures. At Puna, production costs increased $11.2 million, or 47.8%, primarily due to increased cost pressures for fuel, electricity, and reagents in Argentina.
Production costs decreased by $58.4 million, or 12.1%, to $424.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, as compared to $483.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

Further, production costs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 were $0.3 million and $126.0 million, decreases of 99.5% and 37.6%, respectively, compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021. Lower production and production costs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, are due to the temporary suspension of operations that occurred through the third quarter.
Cash Costs
For the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, cash costs per ounce of gold sold were $160 and $589, respectively. The decrease is due the reduction in production costs for the period given the suspension of operations through September 22, 2022.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, cash costs per ounce of gold sold were $928 and $619, respectively. The increase is mainly due to 44.5% fewer gold ounces sold due to
lower sulfide grades mined and
fewer oxide ounces stacked on the leach pad, in addition to higher reagent unit prices during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021.
AISC
For the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, AISC per ounce of gold sold were $14,972 and $724, respectively. The increase in 2022 is due to lower ounces sold due to the temporary suspension of operations. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, AISC per ounce of gold sold were $1,351 and $761, respectively. The increases are due to 44.5% fewer gold ounces sold during the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to the same periods in 2021 due to the temporary suspension of operations that occurred for the majority of the third quarter of 2022.

The Company reports the non-GAAP financial measures of cash costs and AISC per ounce of gold sold to manage and evaluate operating performance at Marigold. See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" for an explanation of these financial measures and a reconciliation to production costs, which are the comparable GAAP financial measure.
Production and Production Costs
The ounces of gold produced remained consistent for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, Marigold produced 131,793 and 177,877 ounces of gold, respectively. The production decrease in 2022 was primarily the result of fewer tonnes stacked in the nine months prior to production.
Production costs for the three months ended September 30, 2022 were $53.7 million, an increase of 6.8% compared to the three months ended September 30, 2021. Production costs per ounce increased primarily due
to higher fuel and reagent costs.
Production costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 were $142.8 million, a decrease of 8.2% compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021. Production costs were lower due to fewer ounces produced, partially offset by higher production costs per ounce. Production costs per ounce sold were 23.5% higher due to higher fuel and reagent costs as well as fewer gold ounces leached as the result of slower leaching due to fines in the ore from the north pits.
Cash Costs
For the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, cash costs per ounce of gold sold were $1,081 and $943, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, cash costs per ounce of gold sold were $1,078 and $870, respectively. The increases in cash costs per ounce are the result of increases in production costs per ounce.
AISC
For the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, AISC per ounce of gold sold was $1,444 and $1,127, respectively. The increase is due to increases in cash cost per ounce as well as higher sustaining capital due to componentization, leach pad construction, and dewatering costs.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, AISC per ounce of gold sold was $1,482 and $1,140, respectively. The increase is mainly due to the increase in cash costs per ounce as well as higher sustaining capital related to dewatering and leach pad construction costs, partially offset by lower componentization costs.

Gold equivalent ounces are calculated multiplying the silver ounces by the ratio of the silver price to the gold price, using the average LBMA prices for the period. The Company does not include by-products in the gold equivalent ounce calculations.
Production and Production Costs
For the three months ended September 30, 2022, Puna produced 2.7 million ounces of silver, an increase of 25.4% as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2021. This was primarily due to the higher silver grade. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, silver ounces produced remained consistent.
Production costs for the three months ended September 30, 2022 were $34.6 million, an increase of 47.8% as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2021. The increase in production costs was primarily due to an increase in silver ounces sold. Production costs per silver ounce sold were consistent year over year.
Production costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 were $102.8 million, an increase of 30.5%, as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The increase in production costs was primarily due to a rise in the inflation rate in Argentina, causing overall costs to increase.
Cash Costs

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, cash costs per ounce of silver sold were $13.31 and $10.68, respectively. The increases in cash cost per ounce of silver sold for the three and nine
41
months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the same periods of 2021 were primarily due to increased production costs, increased transportation costs due to higher international transport prices, and lower by-product credits.
AISC
For the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, AISC per ounce of silver sold were $15.91 and $11.65, respectively. The increase in AISC per ounce of silver was primarily due to the higher cash costs per ounce as well as higher sustaining capital expenditures and higher sustaining exploration expense related to an increase in exploration drilling.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, AISC per ounce of silver sold were $15.32 and $12.73, respectively. The increases in AISC per ounce of silver sold as well as higher sustaining exploration expense related to an increase in exploration drilling.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company manages its liquidity risk through a rigorous planning, budgeting and forecasting process, which is reviewed and updated on a regular basis, to help determine the funding requirements to support its current operations, expansion and development plans, and by managing its capital structure.
The Company's objectives when managing capital are to invest in strategic growth initiatives, return cash to shareholders, and maintain balance sheet strength and flexibility.
In assessing capital structure, the Company includes the components of shareholders’ equity, the 2019 Notes, the Term Loan and the Amended Credit Agreement. In order to facilitate the management of capital requirements, the Company prepares annual budgets and continuously monitors and reviews actual and forecasted cash flows. The annual budget is monitored and approved by the Company's Board of Directors.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
At September 30, 2022, the Company had $748.5 million of cash and cash equivalents, a decrease of $269.1 million from December 31, 2021, mainly due to cash used in the Company’s investing and financing activities, and partially offset by cash flows generated by the Company's operations.

Additionally, the Company held cash and cash equivalents of $40.1 million, $9.9 million and $1.1 million in ARS, CAD and TRY, respectively. All cash is invested in short-term investments or high interest savings accounts in accordance with the Company's investment policy with maturities of 90 days or less, providing the Company with sufficient liquidity to meet its foreseeable corporate needs.
43
Debt
There were no material changes to the Company’s debt and revolving credit facilities since December 31, 2021, except as noted in Note 15 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Cash provided by operating activities
For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, cash provided by operating activities was $42.8 million compared to $424.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease in cash provided by operating activities is mainly due to the impact of lower gold sales at Çöpler, due to the temporary suspension of operations, and Marigold.
Cash used in investing activities
For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, cash used in investing activities was $70.0 million compared to $130.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease in cash used in investing activities is mainly due to proceeds from the sale of the Pitarrilla project of $35.0 million and $8.4 million from the repayment of the EMX note receivable. Additionally, the Company received net proceeds of $10.7 million from the sale of marketable securities offset by the purchase of marketable securities in the amount of $8.0 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 as compared to $4.6 million in net proceeds during the same period in 2021. Capital expenditures decreased by $12.8 million.
Cash used in financing activities
For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, cash used in financing activities was $238.6 million compared to $290.4 million for the same period in 2021. The decrease in cash used in financing activities was primarily due to a $48.0 million reduction of repurchases and cancellations of common shares in addition to a $20.9 million reduction in non-controlling interest dividends, partially offset by an increase of dividends paid of $11.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to 2021.
Contractual Obligations
As of September 30, 2022, there have been no material changes in the Company’s contractual obligations since December 31, 2021 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Refer to Part II, Item 7 in the Annual Report on Form 10-K, for the year ended December 31, 2021 for information regarding the Company’s contractual obligations.
44
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company has included certain non-GAAP financial measures to assist in understanding the Company's financial results. The non-GAAP financial measures are employed by the Company to measure its operating and economic performance and to assist in decision-making, as well as to provide key performance information to senior management. The Company believes that, in addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, certain investors and other stakeholders will find this information useful to evaluate the Company's operating and financial performance; however, these non-GAAP performance measures 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. These non-GAAP measures should be read in conjunction with the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.
Non-GAAP Measure - Cash Costs and AISC
The Company uses cash costs and cash costs per ounce of precious metals sold to monitor its operating performance internally. The most directly comparable measure prepared in accordance with GAAP is production costs. The Company believes these measures provide 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 they are relevant metrics used to understand its operating profitability and ability to generate cash flow. When deriving the production costs associated with an ounce of precious metal, the Company includes by-product credits. Thereby allowing management and other stakeholders to assess the net costs of gold and silver production. In calculating cash costs and cash costs per ounce, the Company also excludes the impact of specific items that are significant, but not reflective of its underlying operations.
AISC includes total production costs 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, expansionary capital and non-sustaining expenditures are excluded. Certain other cash expenditures, including tax payments and financing costs are also excluded.
The Company believes that AISC represents the total costs of producing gold and silver from current operations and provides the Company and other stakeholders with additional information about its operating performance and ability to generate cash flows. AISC allows the Company to assess its ability to support capital expenditures and to sustain future production from the generation of operating cash flows.
When 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)
Adjusted attributable net income (loss) and adjusted attributable net income (loss) per share are used by management and investors to measure the Company's underlying operating performance. The most directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP are net income (loss) attributable to equity holders of SSR Mining and net income (loss) per share attributable to equity holders of SSR Mining. 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 impairment charges; foreign exchange (gains) losses and inflationary impacts on tax balances; transaction, integration, and SEC conversion expenses; and other non-recurring items.
The following table provides a reconciliation of net income (loss) attributable to equity holders of SSR Mining to adjusted net income (loss) attributable to equity holders of SSR Mining:

Non-GAAP Measure - Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization ("EBITDA") and Adjusted EBITDA
EBITDA represents net income (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization. EBITDA is an indicator of the Company's ability to generate liquidity by producing operating cash flow to fund working capital needs, service debt obligations, and fund capital expenditures.
Adjusted EBITDA represents net income (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, adjusted to exclude the impact of specific items that are significant, but not reflective of the Company's underlying operations, including impairment charges; foreign exchange gains (losses); transaction and integration expenses; unrealized gains (losses) on derivatives; and other non-recurring items.
The most directly comparable financial measure prepared in accordance with GAAP to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is net income (loss) attributable to equity holders of SSR Mining.
