Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements

1.NATURE OF OPERATIONS

 

SSR Mining Inc. (the "Company" or "SSR Mining") is a company 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 United States under the symbol "SSRM" and the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) in Australia under the symbol "SSR".

 

The Company and its subsidiaries (collectively, the "Group") are principally engaged in the operation, acquisition, exploration and development of precious metal resource properties located in Turkey and the Americas. The Company has four producing mines in Turkey, the United States, Canada, and Argentina. SSR Mining Inc. is the ultimate parent of the Group.

 

The Company's focus is on safe, profitable gold and silver production from its Çöpler Gold Mine ("Çöpler") in Erzincan, Turkey, 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 toward commercial production.

 

On September 16, 2020, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Alacer Gold Corp. ("Alacer"). The transaction was accounted for as a business combination pursuant to IFRS 3, Business Combinations with SSR Mining identified as the acquiror. Based upon the September 15, 2020 closing share price of the Company's common shares, the total consideration for the acquisition was $2.2 billion. In accordance with the acquisition method of accounting, the consideration transferred was allocated to the underlying assets acquired, including an 80% interest in Çöpler, and liabilities assumed, based upon their estimated fair values as at the date of acquisition. The results of operations of Alacer are included in these condensed consolidated interim financial statements from September 16, 2020 and therefore not included in the comparative information presented in the condensed consolidated interim statement of income (loss) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.

 

Significant Developments During the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2021
COVID-19 response and impact on operations

During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the COVID-19 pandemic continued to impact global economic and financial markets, disrupting global supply chains and workforce participation. Many industries and businesses, including SSR Mining, continue to be impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic and face operating challenges associated with the regulations and guidelines resulting from efforts to contain COVID-19.

 

The Company continues to restrict all non-essential travel and manage the contacts of its employees and contractors in order to reduce the risk of COVID-19 impacting its operations. The Company is operating its corporate offices at reduced capacity, with most employees working remotely.

 

The Company's mine sites remain operational with carefully managed COVID-19 based restrictions designed to protect employees, including quarantining, testing, ensuring physical distancing and providing additional protective equipment. In Turkey, COVID-19 continues to slow government processes including permitting, with considerable effort being expended to attain permits and land access for continued growth and operations.

2.BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

(a)Statement of compliance

 

These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IFRS") applicable to the preparation of interim financial statements, including IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting, and do not include all the information required for full annual financial statements. Accordingly, these condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020. Except as described in note 2(b), the accounting policies applied in the preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements are consistent with those applied and disclosed in the Company's audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020.

 

These statements were authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on August 4, 2021.

 

(b)Interest rate benchmark reform - phase 2 amendments

 

The Company adopted Interest Rate Benchmark Reform - Phase 2: Amendments to IFRS 9, IAS 39, IFRS 4 and IFRS 16 (the "Phase 2 Amendments") effective on January 1, 2021. Interest rate benchmark reform ("Reform") refers to a global reform of interest rate benchmarks, which includes the replacement of some interbank offered rates with alternative benchmark rates. The Phase 2 Amendments provide a practical expedient requiring the effective interest rate be adjusted when accounting for changes in the basis for determining the contractual cash flows of financial assets and liabilities that relate directly to the Reform rather than applying modification accounting which might have resulted in a gain or loss. In addition, the Phase 2 Amendments require disclosures to assist users in understanding the effect of the Reform on the Company's financial instruments and risk management strategy.

 

The Company has the following financial instruments indexed to the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") that have not yet transitioned to alternative benchmark rates as at June 30, 2021:

 

Financial instrument  Carrying amount
Term Loan  $175,000 
Interest rate swap contracts   690 
Amended Credit Facility   —   

 

On March 5, 2021, the Financial Conduct Authority, the regulatory supervisor of the LIBOR's administrator, announced that panel bank submissions for the 1-week and 2-month USD LIBOR settings will cease immediately after December 31, 2021, and immediately after June 30, 2023, in the case of the remaining USD LIBOR settings, after which representative LIBOR rates will no longer be available.

 

The Company maintains a Term Loan which bears interest at the three-month USD LIBOR plus a fixed interest rate margin ranging from 3.5% to 3.7% depending on the tranche and which is expected to be fully repaid in December 2023. The Company is currently working with the syndicate of lenders to assess the potential alternatives to the use of LIBOR.

 

The Company also maintains LIBOR interest rate swap contracts with underlying notional amounts of approximately 30% of the outstanding Term Loan balance as at June 30, 2021 through December 22, 2021. Considering the maturity dates of the contracts and the expected timing of changes to alternative benchmark rates, the Company does not expect its outstanding interest rate swap contracts to transition to an alternative benchmark rate.

The Company further maintains a $200 million senior secured revolving credit facility (the "Amended Credit Facility") with a $100 million accordion feature, for which amounts borrowed incur variable interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin ranging from 2% to 3% based on the Company's net leverage ratio (note 6). The Amended Credit Facility matures on June 8, 2025. The Amended Credit Facility contains fallback language that replaces the applicable current benchmark rate with an alternative benchmark rate based on either the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") or another alternative benchmark rate when the current benchmark rate ceases to exist.

 

 

3.AREAS OF JUDGMENT AND ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY

In preparing its consolidated financial statements, the Company makes judgments in applying its accounting policies. In addition, the preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires the use of estimates that may affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the consolidated financial statements and related notes in future periods. These estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of the relevant facts and circumstances, having regard to previous experience, but actual results may differ materially from the amounts included in the consolidated financial statements. Except as described in note 5, the significant judgments applied and areas of estimation uncertainty in the preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 are consistent with those applied and disclosed in note 3 to the Company's audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020.

5.MINERAL PROPERTIES, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT (continued)

(2)    At June 30, 2021, the Company recognized an impairment loss of $22.3 million ($18.2 million, net of tax) as a result of the agreement entered into subsequent to June 30, 2021 to sell a portfolio of royalty interests and deferred payments (note 14) (the “Royalty Sales Agreement”). For the purposes of impairment assessment and measuring the impairment loss, all the assets within the portfolio have been grouped as one cash-generating unit (the “Royalty Portfolio”). The impairment loss recognized was calculated based on the difference between the recoverable amount of the Royalty Portfolio, being its fair value less costs of disposal (“FVLCOD”) of $85.1 million, and the carrying amount of the Royalty Portfolio prior to the impairment.

 

The FVLCOD of the Royalty Portfolio was estimated based on the fair value of each of the components of the consideration included in the Royalty Sales Agreement. The Company will receive cash and shares of the acquirer on closing and deferred consideration related to project development milestones for one of the underlying projects. The fair value of the deferred consideration was estimated based on the present value of the projected future cash inflows using a discount rate of 12.5%. The projected future cash inflows are affected by assumptions related to the achievement of the development milestones.

 

Of the $22.3 million impairment loss included within the exploration, evaluation and development properties reportable segment, $20.5 million has been allocated to mineral properties not yet subject to depletion, and the remaining $1.8 million has been allocated to exploration and evaluation assets.

Amended Credit Facility

On June 7, 2021, the Company amended its previous revolving credit facility which expired on June 8, 2021, increasing the facility size from $75 million to $200 million and extending the maturity by four years to June 8, 2025. The Amended Credit Facility also includes an accordion feature that increased from $25 million to $100 million.

 

The Amended Credit Facility may be used by the Company for working capital, reclamation bonding and other general corporate purposes. Amounts drawn under the Amended Credit Facility 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. The Amended Credit Facility contains fallback language that replaces the applicable current benchmark rate with an alternative benchmark rate based on either SOFR or another alternative benchmark rate when the current benchmark rate ceases to exist. Undrawn amounts are subject to a standby fee ranging from 0.4% to 0.6%, based on the Company's net leverage ratio.

 

All debts, liabilities and obligations under the Amended Credit Facility are guaranteed by the Company's North American subsidiaries and secured by certain of the Company's assets and material subsidiaries, excluding Alacer entities and the Puna operating entity, and pledges of material subsidiaries. Pursuant to the Amended Credit Facility, the Company must meet minimum tangible net worth, interest coverage and net leverage ratio requirements.

 

As at June 30, 2021, the Company was in compliance with all applicable covenants related to the Amended Credit Facility.

 

There were no amounts outstanding under the Amended Credit Facility as at June 30, 2021 and under the previous revolving credit facility as at December 31, 2020.

9.SHARE CAPITAL AND SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

 

(a) Repurchase of common shares

 

On April 16, 2021, the Company received approval of its Normal Course Issuer Bid (the "NCIB") to purchase its common shares through the facilities of the TSX, NASDAQ or other Canadian and United States marketplaces. Pursuant to the NCIB, the Company is able to purchase up to 10,000,000 common shares over a twelve-month period commencing on April 21, 2021. All shares will be canceled upon purchase. The NCIB will expire no later than April 20, 2022.

 

During the three months ended June 30, 2021, the Company purchased 4,000,000 of its outstanding common shares pursuant to the NCIB at an average share price of $17.55 per share for total consideration of $70.3 million. The difference of $11.6 million between the total amount paid and the amount deducted from common shares of $58.7 million was recorded as a direct charge to retained earnings. The amount deducted from common shares was determined based on the average paid in capital per common share outstanding prior to the repurchase date.

(c)Reclassification of RSUs

 

Under the Company's share compensation plans, the Company has an option to settle vested Restricted Share Units ("RSUs") in either cash or common shares. On February 10, 2021, the Company's Board of Directors indicated its intention to settle all the RSUs issued under the Company's plans, when vested, in common shares of SSR Mining. Prior to this date, based on a past history of settling RSUs in cash, the Company had accounted for these awards as financial liabilities. To account for the reclassification of RSUs from cash-settled to equity-settled, the fair value of the outstanding RSUs, amounting to $8.8 million, was transferred from liabilities to the share-based compensation reserve within shareholders' equity on the date of reclassification. The Company recognized $2.4 million of deferred income tax expense in the consolidated interim statement of income in connection with the reclassification of the awards from cash-settled to equity-settled.

 

10.DIVIDENDS

 

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company paid cash dividends of $0.05 and $0.10 per common share, respectively, to equity holders of SSR Mining for total dividends of $11.0 million and $22.0 million, respectively.

 

Subsequent to June 30, 2021, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.05 per common share, payable on September 13, 2021 to holders of record at the close of business on August 16, 2021.

11.OPERATING SEGMENTS

 

Results of operating segments are reviewed by the Company's chief operating decision maker ("CODM") to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segments and to assess their performance. Each individual operating mine site is considered to be a reportable operating segment for financial reporting purposes.

 

In connection with the acquisition of Alacer on September 16, 2020, the Company added Çöpler as a new operating segment from the date of acquisition.

 

The following is a summary of the reported amounts of income from mine operations, operating income (loss), income (loss) before income taxes and the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities by operating segment:

(1)  Cost of sales at Puna include a write-down of metal inventories to net realizable value of $nil for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 (three and six months ended June 30, 2020 - $0.1 million and $8.6 million, respectively).

(2)  At June 30, 2021, the Company recognized an impairment loss of $22.3 million ($18.2 million, net of tax) on the Royalty Portfolio included within the exploration, evaluation and development properties segment (notes 5 and 14).

(3) Other reconciling items refer to items that are not reported as part of segment performance as they are managed on a corporate basis.

(4) On March 20, 2020 and March 25, 2020, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company temporarily suspended operations at Puna and Seabee, respectively. While the operations were suspended, the Company continued to perform care and maintenance activities and incurred incremental costs as a result. These incremental costs do not relate to producing or selling metal concentrate or gold, and are therefore presented separately within operating income (loss).

 

12.FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

 

(a) Fair values of financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value

 

The categories of the fair value hierarchy that reflect the significance of inputs used in making fair value measurements are as follows:

 

Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

 

Level 2 - inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices); and

 

Level 3 - inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data.
