PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION
FIRST QUARTER 2023 HIGHLIGHTS (dollars, except per share, per ounce and per pound amounts)
•
Operating performance:
The Company reported first quarter 2023 production of 146,894 gold equivalent ounces at cost of sales of $1,289 per gold equivalent ounce and all-in sustaining costs (“AISC”) of $1,693 per gold-equivalent ounce.
(1)
As expected, first quarter 2023 AISC reflects increased sustaining capital spend at Seabee related to deliveries over the winter road and haul truck purchases at Marigold.
•
Financial results:
Attributable net income in the first quarter of 2023 was $29.8 million, or $0.14 per diluted share, and adjusted attributable net income was $21.3 million, or $0.10 per diluted share. For the three months ending March 31, 2023, operating cash flow was $3.0 million and free cash flow was $(56.3) million.
(1)
•
Capital returns:
During the first quarter of 2023, the Company returned $19.6 million to shareholders, which includes $14.4 million in dividends and $5.2 million in share repurchases. Since the inception of the Company’s Normal Course Issuer Bid (“NCIB”) program on June 20, 2022, the Company has purchased a total of 6,401,297 shares at an average price of $16.44 per share representing approximately $105.2 million in total returns as of March 31, 2023.
•
Balance sheet and financial strength:
As of March 31, 2023, the Company had a cash and cash equivalents balance of $561.8 million after returning $19.6 million to shareholders and making $17.8 in debt repayments.
•
Delivered strong near-mine exploration results at Puna:
The Company continued to showcase its global exploration platform with the positive exploration update from the Puna operations in Argentina during the first quarter. The 2022 exploration program focused on resource expansion, discovery and reconciliation drilling at Chinchillas and was the first exploration drilling completed at the property since 2016. The positive results highlight the potential for extensions to Puna’s current Mineral Reserve life.
•
2022 ESG and Sustainability Report:
On April 14, 2023, the Company published its fifth annual ESG and Sustainability Report. The report provided a comprehensive overview of how the Company manages sustainability across the business, detailed specific achievements from 2022 and outlined commitments made for 2023. Information included in the Company’s ESG and Sustainability Report is not incorporated by reference into this Form 10-Q.
(1)
AISC, free cash flow, adjusted attributable net income (loss), and adjusted attributable net income (loss) per diluted share are non-GAAP financial measures. For explanations of these measures and reconciliations to the most comparable financial measure calculated under U.S. GAAP, please see the discussion under "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" in Part I, Item 2, Management’s Discussion and Analysis herein.

THE COMPANY
SSR Mining Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, "SSR Mining," or the "Company”) 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 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.
SSR Mining 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."
2.
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. In addition, the Company maintains cash balances at banking institutions in various jurisdictions which may or may not have deposit insurance. The Company mitigates potential cash risk by maintaining bank accounts with credit-worthy financial institutions. Any loss incurred or a lack of access to such funds could have a significant adverse impact on the Company's financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.
Basis of Presentation
The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all information and disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. Therefore, this information should be read in conjunction with SSR Mining Inc.’s Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 filed on February 22, 2023, as amended on Form 10-K/A filed on March 17, 2023, solely to correct a typographical error related to the date of the audit opinion (together, “Form 10-K”). The information furnished herein reflects all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods reported. All such adjustments are, in the opinion of management, of a normal recurring nature. The results for the three month period ended March 31, 2023, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2023.

Reclassifications
Certain amounts and disclosures in prior years have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
Changes to operating segments
During the first quarter of 2023 the Company changed the way management internally reviews and evaluates operating performance and manages the business. The Company determined it has

INCOME AND MINING TAXES
The Company’s consolidated effective income tax rate was
8.8
% for the first three months of 2023 compared to
29.2
% for the first three months of 2022. The primary driver of the change in the effective rate is foreign currency fluctuations and the release of uncertain tax positions, although these tax benefits were partially offset by tax return adjustments, including the newly implemented
Türkiye
earthquake tax. The Company’s statutory tax rate for the period is
27.0
%. The effective rate differs from the statutory rate primarily due to the release of uncertain tax positions, partially offset by tax return adjustments, which are largely attributable to the
Türkiye
earthquake tax assessments.
Unrecognized Tax Benefits
The Company records uncertain tax positions on the basis of 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):

As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, $
2.0
million and $
8.6
million, respectively, represent the amount of unrecognized tax benefits, inclusive of interest and penalties that, if recognized, would impact the Company’s effective income tax rate.
As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the total amount of accrued income-tax-related interest and penalties included in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets were
nil
and $
5.2
million. The Company believes it is reasonably possible that the total amount of the unrecognized tax benefit of $
2.0
million will be settled in the next 12 months. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company released $
6.6
million of tax, interest and penalties in
Income and mining tax benefit (expense)
in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. On March 12, 2023,
Türkiye enacted Tax Amnesty legislation, which allows taxpayers to voluntarily pay tax on uncertain tax positions and waives assessed interest, penalties and up to 50.0% of tax and risk of audit if paid in accordance with the process outlined in the legislation.

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”), and convertible notes for periods in which the Company has reported net income (loss).
The calculations of basic and diluted net income (loss) per share attributable to stockholders of the Company for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 are based on the following (in thousands):

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS AND FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
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)
At times, the Company manages a portion of its exposure to fluctuation in diesel prices and foreign currency exchange rates through hedges; however, as of March 31, 2023 the Company does not have any outstanding hedge positions. In periods when the Company has open hedge positions, the 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 Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, are valued using inputs derived from observable market data, including quoted commodity

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 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 $

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.
As a result of ongoing dividends and in accordance with the 2019 Notes Agreement, during the fourth quarter of 2022 the conversion rate was adjusted to
55.6750
common shares per $
1,000
principal amount of the 2019 Notes converted.
Prior to April 1, 2023, the Company may not redeem the 2019 Notes, except in the event of certain changes in Canadian tax law.

24
Revenue
For the three months ended March 31, 2023, revenue decreased by $40.8 million, or 11.5%, to $314.6 million, as compared to $355.4 million for the
three months ended March 31, 2022. The decrease was mainly due
19.8% fewer ounces of gold sold and 2.9% lower realized silver prices, partially offset by 35.3% more ounces of silver sold and
a 1.2% increase in average realized gold prices.
Cost of sales
Cost of sales increased by $45.8 million, or 29.8%, to $199.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to $153.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The increase was mainly due to higher operating costs and
inflationary pressure on costs
. For a complete discussion of costs of sales by site, refer to the Results of Operations below.

Depreciation, depletion, and amortization (“DD&A”) expense decreased by $11.6 million, or 19.8%, to $47.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to $58.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, primarily due to a decrease in gold equivalent ounces sold
.
General and administrative expense
General and administrative expense for the three months ended March 31, 2023 increased by $2.3 million compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022.
General and administrative expenses increased primarily due to higher consulting fees partially offset by lower employee and stock-based compensation.
Exploration, evaluation and reclamation costs
Exploration, evaluation, and reclamation costs increased by $2.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 as the Company has committed to additional exploration during the year to support growth and resource conversion across the portfolio. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, the year over year increase was primarily due to a $2.0 million increase in exploration drilling and a $0.8 million increase in reclamation accretion expense.
Interest expense
Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 was consistent year over year.
Other income (expense)
Other income for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $13.1 million as compared to an expense of $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The change is primarily due to an increase in interest income of $6.1 million due to higher interest rates and an increase in gain on marketable securities of $6.0 million.
Foreign exchange gain (loss)
Foreign exchange loss for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $13.2 million compared to a loss of $3.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022.
The Company's main foreign exchange exposures are related to net monetary assets and liabilities denominated in TRY, ARS and CAD. The increase in foreign exchange loss was mainly due to a weakening of the ARS against the USD and its impact on ARS-denominated assets at Puna and the weakening of the TRY against the USD and its impact on TRY-denominated assets at Çöpler.
25
Income and mining tax benefit (expense)
Income and mining tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $2.8 million as compared to an expense of $31.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The decrease in tax expense was primarily as a result of a decrease of revenue at our Seabee operations, foreign currency fluctuations and the release of uncertain tax positions, although these tax benefit drivers were partially offset by tax return adjustments, largely due to retroactive earthquake tax assessments.

Three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to three months ended March 31, 2022
Gold production decreased 22.0% due to lower grade sulfide ore milled. Revenue decreased by $26.9 million, or 19.6%,
of which $27.9 million was the result of lower volume of gold sold partially offset by a $1.0 million increase as a result of higher average realized gold price. Cost of sales increased by 19.3% as a result of higher oxygen, electricity and sulfuric acid consumption and unit costs, and community donations
. Cost of sales per ounce of gold sold, Cash costs per ounce of gold sold, and AISC per ounce of gold sold increased 49.0%, 50.7%, and 48.7%, respectively, due to fewer gold ounces sold and higher cost of sales.

Three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to three months ended March 31, 2022
Gold production increased 53.8% due to higher grade and more tonnes stacked. Revenue increased by $29.3 million or 42.5%, of which $26.7 million was the result of higher volume of gold sold and $2.6 million was the result of higher average realized gold price. Cost of sales increased 40.8% due to higher royalty expense as a result of more gold ounces sold, increased usage of equipment components and repair parts, and higher fuel and reagent costs. Cost of sales per ounce of gold sold and Cash costs per ounce of gold sold remained consistent despite an increase in gold sold as a result of higher cost of sales. AISC per ounce of gold sold increased 6.3% as a result of higher capital expenditures related to the purchase of two haul trucks that were delivered earlier than planned.

Cost of sales increased 41.8% as a result of higher mobile maintenance costs, rental equipment costs, and utilization of contractors for winter road construction. Cost of sales per ounce of gold sold and cash costs per ounce of gold sold increased 303.8% and 302.9%, respectively, due to fewer gold ounces sold and higher cost of sales. AISC per ounce of gold sold increased 270.3% due to fewer gold ounces sold, higher cost of sales, and an increase in capital expenditures related to underground mine development and machinery and equipment purchases delivered over the winter road.

The Company reports the non-GAAP financial measures of cash costs and AISC per ounce of silver sold to manage and evaluate operating performance at Puna. See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" for an explanation of these financial measures and a reconciliation to
Cost of sales
, which is the comparable GAAP financial measure.
Three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to three months ended March 31, 2022
Silver production increased 54.6% due to more tonnes milled and higher mill feed grade. Revenue increased by $15.6 million, or 26.7%, of which $19.1 million was the result of higher volume of concentrate sold partially offset by a $3.5 million decrease as a result of lower average realized silver, lead and zinc price. Cost of sales increased 30.9% as a result of inflationary pressure on costs of materials and supplies, reagents, and fuel in addition to more silver ounces sold. Cost of sales per ounce of silver sold decreased 3.3% due to more silver ounces sold. Cash costs per ounce of silver sold increased 10.3% due to higher cost of sales and treatment and refining costs partially offset by more silver ounces sold. AISC per ounce of silver sold increased 11.8% due to higher cost of sales and cash costs, partially offset by more ounces sold, and higher sustaining exploration expense related to exploration drilling near Chinchillas.

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. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may, from time to time, issue new shares or debt, repay debt, dispose of non-core assets, or buy back shares. The Company expects its current capital resources will be sufficient to meet its business requirements for a minimum of twelve months.
Cash Dividends
During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company declared quarterly cash dividends of $0.07 per common share for total dividends of $14.4 million.
During the
three months ended March 31, 2022
, the Company declared dividends of $0.07 per common share for an aggregate amount of $15.0 million.
Share Repurchase Plan/ Normal Course Issuer Bid
The Board of Directors authorized a Normal Course Issuer Bid (the “2022 NCIB”) on June 20, 2022, to repurchase up to an aggregate of 10,600,000 common shares on the Nasdaq, the TSX and/or other exchanges and alternative trading systems in Canada and/or the United States, if eligible, subject to applicable law and stock exchange rules. In connection with the 2022 NCIB, the Company entered into an automated share purchase plan. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company repurchased and cancelled 348,171 common shares, for $5.2 million, at a weighted average price paid per common share of $14.92.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
At March 31, 2023, the Company had $561.8 million of cash and cash equivalents, a decrease of $93.7 million from December 31, 2022, mainly due to cash used in the Company’s investing and financing activities. The Company held $499.1 million of its cash and cash equivalents balance in USD. Additionally, the Company held cash and cash equivalents of $31.1 million, $24.2 million and $5.2 million in ARS, CAD and TRY, respectively.
The Company maintains cash balances at banking institutions in various jurisdictions which may or may not have deposit insurance. The Company mitigates potential cash risk by maintaining bank accounts with credit-worthy financial institutions. 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.
Debt
There were no material changes to the Company’s debt and revolving credit facilities since December 31, 2022, except as noted in Note 13 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
The Company's working capital at March 31, 2023, together with future cash flows from operations, are sufficient to fund planned activities and commitments.

Cash provided by operating activities
For the three months ended March 31, 2023, cash provided by operating activities was $3.0 million compared to $62.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The decrease is mainly due to the impact of lower gold sales at Çöpler and Seabee in addition to an increase in operating cash expenditures.
Cash used in investing activities
For the three months ended March 31, 2023, cash used in investing activities was $51.9 million compared to $27.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The increase of $24.0 million is due to higher capital expenditures related to the purchase of two haul trucks and leach processing facility improvements at Marigold, and the expansion of the tailings storage facility at Çöpler.
Cash used in financing activities
For the three months ended March 31, 2023, cash used in financing activities was $38.2 million compared to $53.4 million for the same period in 2022. The decrease is primarily due to a reduction in non-controlling interest dividends of $30.8 million and principal payments on finance leases of $6.3 million, partially offset by an increase of dividends paid of $14.4 million and $5.2 million of repurchases and cancellations of common shares for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to 2022.
Contractual Obligations
As of March 31, 2023, there have been no material changes in the Company’s contractual obligations since December 31, 2022 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Refer to Part II, Item 7 in the Form 10-K for information regarding the Company’s contractual obligations.

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
Cost of sales
. 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 cost of sales 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 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, 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 and adjusted attributable net income 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 attributable to SSR Mining shareholders
and Net income per share attributable to SSR Mining shareholders. Adjusted attributable net income is defined as net income adjusted to exclude the after-tax impact of specific items that are significant, but not reflective of the Company's underlying operations, including the impact of impairment adjustments; inflationary impacts on tax balances; transaction, integration and SEC conversion costs; changes in tax rate for other non-recurring items. SEC conversion costs are the costs associated with the Company's transition in 2022 from being a foreign private issuer to a domestic reporting issuer for purposes of the SEC's reporting and other requirements.
