SSR Mining Inc. (TSX:SSRM, ASX: SSR))) ("SSR Mining" or the "Company") reports consolidated financial results for the second quarter ended June 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

The primary focus following the Çöpler Incident was the recovery and return of our missing colleagues to their families. All nine of the individuals who were lost as a result of the Incident have now been recovered. We want to thank all of those who worked tirelessly to locate and return these individuals to their families. We continue to provide support to the families, our colleagues and the community members impacted by the tragic events of February 13, 2024, and to-date we have retained a full complement of salaried staff at Çöpler.

Immediately following the Incident, in partnership with the Turkish authorities, several steps were taken to ensure containment of the Incident. All of the containment infrastructure, including the grout curtain, coffer dam, and buttress, as well as pumping systems and the Sabırlı Creek diversion, are successfully in place. Public statements from the Turkish government have continued to affirm that there has been no recordable contamination to local soil, water or air in the sampling locations being monitored.

Over 13 million tonnes of displaced heap leach material at Çöpler have been moved since the Incident, including more than 9 million tonnes from the Sabırlı Valley. As previously guided, all displaced material is expected to be removed from the Sabırlı Valley into temporary storage areas by the end of the third quarter of 2024. From the start of the second quarter of 2024 onwards, estimates for the cost of site remediation are between $250 to $300 million, including legal contingencies, material movement and construction costs. In the second quarter, $55 million was spent on remediation activities at Çöpler. With total cash of $358 million at the end of the second quarter, total available liquidity in excess of $850 million, and ongoing free cash flow generation from Marigold, Seabee and Puna, SSR Mining's balance sheet remains strong.

The investigations into the cause of the Çöpler Incident continue and we are cooperating fully with the relevant authorities in Türkiye. The Company has commissioned independent third parties to review the design, construction and operation of the heap leach pad. Although the review is ongoing, to date, these reviews have not identified any material non-conformance with the construction or operation of the heap leach pad relative to the third-party engineered design parameters.

SSR Mining continues to work closely with the relevant authorities to secure the required permits for the East Storage Facility and the restart of the Çöpler mine. Once all necessary regulatory approvals, including the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) and operating permits, are reinstated, it is anticipated that initial operations at Çöpler will consist of processing stockpiled ore through the sulfide plant while Çöpler's mining team remains focused on completing the remediation work. As of the end of 2023, sulfide stockpiles contained approximately 706,000 ounces. SSR Mining expects the Çöpler Sulfide Plant could process the stockpiles economically while the remediation work is completed.

At this time, the Company is not able to estimate when and under what conditions operations will resume at Çöpler.

More information related to the Çöpler Incident is included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on February 27, 2024 and in the Company's Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q filed on May 8, 2024 and July 31, 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.

Second Quarter 2024 Update ⁽¹⁾

In the second quarter of 2024, SSR Mining produced 76,102 gold equivalent ounces at cost of sales of $1,357 per payable ounce and AISC of $2,116 per payable ounce, which includes $17.3 million in care and maintenance costs incurred at Çöpler. First half consolidated production of 155,864 gold equivalent ounces from Marigold, Seabee and Puna is in line with expectations for a second-half weighted production profile. Full-year 2024 production guidance of 340,000 to 380,000 gold equivalent ounces for Marigold, Seabee and Puna remains unchanged.

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:

	As of
(in thousands)		June 30, 2024		December 31, 2023
Cash and cash equivalents		$	358,307	$	492,393
Restricted cash		$	101	$	101
Total cash		$	358,408	$	492,494

Face value of 2019 convertible note		$	230,000	$	230,000
Other debt		$	—	$	920
Total debt		$	230,000	$	230,920

Net cash (debt)		$	128,408	$	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 June 30, 2024 and as of December 31, 2023, the Company's $400 million credit facility was undrawn, with a $100 million accordion feature.

The following table provides a reconciliation of Cash and cash equivalents to Total liquidity:

	As of
(in thousands)		June 30, 2024		December 31, 2023
Cash and cash equivalents		$	358,307	$	492,393

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.

The following tables provide a reconciliation of Cost of sales to Cash costs and AISC:

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:

(in thousands of US dollars, except per share data)	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,

(23)		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 of $12.3 million (amount is presented net of pre-tax attributable to non-controlling interest of $3.0 million). Refer to Note 3 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further details related to the impact of the Çöpler Incident.
(24)		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.
(25)		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 six months ended June 30, 2024, $1.2 million interest saving on 2019 Notes, net of tax, and potentially dilutive shares of approximately 12.9 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 included in the computation of adjusted net income (loss) per diluted share attributable to SSR Mining shareholders for the six months ended June 30, 2024.

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 June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2024		2023		2024		2023
Cash provided by operating activities (GAAP)	$	(78,132)	$	80,343	$	(53,501)	$	83,310
Expenditures on mineral properties, plant, and equipment	$	(38,176)	$	(57,935)	$	(72,211)	$	(117,177)
Free cash flow (non-GAAP)	$	(116,308)	$	22,408	$	(125,712)	$	(33,867)

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:

(in thousands of US dollars, except per share data)	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2024		2023		2024		2023
Cash generated by (used in) operating activities (GAAP)	$	(78,132)	$	80,343	$	(53,501)	$	83,310
Net change in operating assets and liabilities	$	55,039	$	23,922	$	62,665	$	111,824
Cash generated by (used in) operating activities before changes in working capital (non-GAAP)	$	(23,093)	$	104,265	$	9,164	$	195,134
Expenditures on mineral properties, plant, and equipment	$	(38,176)	$	(57,935)	$	(72,211)	$	(117,177)
Free cash flow before changes in working capital (non-GAAP)	$	(61,269)	$	46,330	$	(63,047)	$	77,957
