SSR Mining Inc. (Nasdaq/TSX: SSRM) ("SSR Mining" or the “Company") reports consolidated financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2025.

Operating results: Second quarter 2025 production was 120,191 gold equivalent ounces at cost of sales of $1,396 per payable ounce and all-in sustaining costs (“AISC”) of $2,068 per payable ounce, or $1,858 per payable ounce exclusive of costs incurred at Çöpler in the quarter. (1) Year-to-date, the Company produced 223,987 gold equivalent ounces at cost of sales of $1,357 per payable ounce and all-in-sustaining costs of $2,024 per payable ounce, or $1,807 exclusive of costs incurred at Çöpler during the year. The Company remains on track for full-year 2025 guidance of 410,000 to 480,000 gold equivalent ounces from its Marigold, CC&V, Seabee and Puna operations at consolidated cost of sales of $1,375 to $1,435 per payable ounce and AISC of $2,090 to $2,150 per payable ounce. Financial results: In the second quarter of 2025, SSR Mining reported net income attributable to SSR Mining shareholders of $90.1 million, or $0.42 per diluted share and adjusted net income attributable to SSR Mining shareholders of $110.1 million, or $0.51 per diluted share. For the second quarter of 2025, SSR Mining generated $157.8 million in operating cash flow and $98.4 million in free cash flow. Over the same period, operating cash flow and free cash flow before working capital adjustments totaled $196.0 million and $136.6 million, respectively. Cash and liquidity position: As of June 30, 2025, SSR Mining had a cash and cash equivalent balance of $412.1 million and total liquidity of $912.1 million inclusive of the Company’s undrawn revolving credit facility and accompanying accordion feature. In the second quarter of 2025, SSR Mining received $44.4 million in business interruption insurance proceeds associated with the Çöpler Incident. CC&V integration: In the first full quarter of operations within the SSR Mining portfolio, CC&V produced 44,062 ounces of gold at cost of sales of $1,116 per payable ounce and AISC of $1,339 per payable ounce. The CC&V integration has continued to progress positively, with the mine generating nearly $85 million in mine site free cash flow since the close of the acquisition. CC&V remains on track for full-year guidance metrics, and a technical report for CC&V based on existing Mineral Reserves remains on track for publication in 2025. Çöpler update: The Company continues to work closely with the relevant authorities in Türkiye to advance the restart of the Çöpler mine, including progressing various engineering plans and design documents. During the second quarter of 2025, the Company recorded an increase to the reclamation and remediation costs associated with the Çöpler incident. The revised estimate reflects an increase of $12.9 million above the previously disclosed estimated reclamation and remediation cost range of $250 to $300 million provided in the first quarter of 2024. The revision in estimate reflects the Company's advancement of the engineering and construction design of the East Storage Facility and the advancement of the studies for the permanent closure of the heap leach pad. While SSR Mining remains confident and committed to restarting operations, at this time, the Company is not able to estimate or predict when and under what conditions operations will resume at Çöpler. Puna mine life extension: SSR Mining has continued to advance opportunities to extend the Puna mine life, including pit laybacks at the Chinchillas pit, processing of stockpiles, and advancing exploration and engineering work at Cortaderas. Based on the work currently completed at Chinchillas, SSR Mining expects that 2026 silver production at Puna will be between 7 and 8 million ounces, an increase against the 2023 Puna Technical Report Summary (“TRS”). Production in 2027 and 2028 is expected to average approximately 4 million ounces of silver. The Company will continue to evaluate opportunities to extend the mine life at Puna, including advancing studies on the Cortaderas deposit. Development & exploration: During the second quarter of 2025, $16.2 million was spent at Hod Maden as engineering and initial site establishment efforts continued to progress, bringing year-to-date spend to $29.1 million at the project. Additionally, SSR Mining continued to advance exploration and development activities across its portfolio in the quarter.

Rod Antal, Executive Chairman of SSR Mining, said, “The second quarter of 2025 was another period of strong operational performance. Pleasingly, CC&V delivered well against expectations in its first full quarter in our portfolio, and the mine has now generated approximately $85 million in asset-level free cash flow in the four months since its acquisition, a remarkable outcome. With an updated technical report for CC&V also expected this year, we are excited to provide our initial view of the longer-term potential of the asset and further demonstrate the benefits of this accretive transaction.

In Türkiye, initial development activities continued at Hod Maden, while efforts at Çöpler remain focused on advancing requirements towards a restart.

Lastly, through our continued drive to deliver organic growth across the portfolio, we are pleased to announce the near-term extension of operations at Puna. This update provides a meaningful improvement over Puna’s prior life of mine plan, and we view this extension as a first step in highlighting the continued and future upside at the asset through further development at Chinchillas and at Cortaderas.”

For the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, Seabee produced 10,998 and 16,709 ounces of gold, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, Seabee produced 36,999 and 40,482 ounces of gold, respectively. During the second quarter of 2025, Seabee reported cost of sales of $1,785 per payable ounce and AISC of $2,708 per payable ounce.

Production during the second quarter of 2025 was impacted by power interruptions caused by forest fires to the north of the mine. The power supply to the site was restored on June 13, 2025, and there was no damage to the site as a result of the fires. In support of the emergency recovery and relief efforts for communities impacted by this year's forest fires across northern Saskatchewan & Manitoba, SSR Mining made a donation to the Canadian Red Cross. This donation was matched by the Government of Canada through a program designed to maximize the impact of support to those affected by the fires.

Due to the suspension of operations in the second quarter and a concerted effort to prioritize underground mine development over the remainder of the year, full-year 2025 production at Seabee is targeted at the low end of the mine’s previously issued production guidance of 70,000 to 80,000 ounces of gold.
