1.
NATURE OF OPERATIONS

SSR Mining Inc. ("we", "us", "our", the "Company", or "SSR Mining") is a company incorporated under the laws of the Province of British Columbia, Canada and our shares are publicly listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange in Canada and the NASDAQ Global Market in the United States. Together with our subsidiaries, we (the “Group”) are principally engaged in the operation, acquisition, exploration and development of precious metal resource properties located in the Americas. We have three producing mines and a portfolio of precious metal dominant projects located throughout the Americas. SSR Mining Inc. is the ultimate parent of the Group.

Our head office is at Suite 800, 1055 Dunsmuir Street, PO Box 49088, Vancouver, British Columbia, V7X 1G4.

Our focus is on safe, profitable gold and silver production from our Marigold mine in Nevada, U.S., Seabee Gold Operation in Saskatchewan, Canada and Puna Operations in Jujuy, Argentina, and to advance, as market and project conditions permit, our other principal development projects towards development and commercial production.

Significant changes in the current reporting period

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the coronavirus disease ("COVID-19") a pandemic. During the current interim financial reporting period, the COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted global economic and financial markets. Most industries have been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic and are facing operating challenges associated with the regulations and guidelines resulting from efforts to contain it.

As a direct result of the COVID-19 pandemic, we temporarily suspended operations at our Puna Operations and Seabee Gold Operation on March 20, 2020 and March 25, 2020, respectively. During the suspension at Puna Operations and Seabee Gold Operation, we are performing care and maintenance activities. Costs incurred during the suspensions associated with these activities have been separately identified and accounted for as care and maintenance costs within operating income in the condensed consolidated interim statements of income. The Marigold mine continues to operate with limited impact from COVID-19 and we have implemented numerous measures intended to protect our employees, including ensuring physical distancing and providing additional protective equipment.

Although we expect the COVID-19 pandemic to adversely impact production and operating income in the short term, particularly at Puna Operations and Seabee Gold Operation where operations are currently suspended, we continue to monitor the situation closely and are developing phased restart plans consistent with guidelines and regulations in place where our mines are located. Should the duration, spread or intensity of the COVID-19 pandemic further develop in 2020, our operations could be more significantly impacted. These factors may impact, among other things, our operating plan, production, liquidity, cash flows and valuation of our long-lived assets.

2.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION

These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB") 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 our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019.

These statements were authorized for issue by our Board of Directors on May 14, 2020.

The accounting policies applied in the preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements are consistent with those applied and disclosed in our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING JUDGMENTS AND ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements requires the use of assumptions, judgments and/or estimates that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the consolidated financial statements and related notes. These assumptions, judgments and 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 financial statements. The significant judgments and estimates applied in the preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2020 are consistent with those applied and disclosed in Note 3 to our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019.

As at March 31, 2020, we have recognized a provision of $3,297,000 (December 31, 2019 - $3,297,000) for obsolete materials and supplies inventory.

For the three months ended March 31, 2020, we recognized write-downs of stockpiled ore inventories to net realizable value of $8.5 million (three months ended March 31, 2019 of $0.1 million). The write-down for the three months was due primarily to a decrease in commodity prices as at March 31, 2020.

On March 19, 2019, we repurchased $150,000,000 of the 2.875% senior convertible notes due 2033 (the "2013 Notes") for a cash payment of $152,250,000. The redemption amount was bifurcated into the debt and equity components of the 2013 Notes purchased. The fair value of the debt portion of $148,000,000 was estimated using a discounted cash flow model based on a maturity date of February 1, 2020 and a discount rate of 4.95%. The difference between this amount and the book value of the redeemed 2013 Notes of $5,423,000 was recognized in the consolidated statements of income along with the related tax recovery of $1,687,000 and the residual of $4,825,000 was allocated to equity.
Holders of our 2.875% senior convertible notes issued in 2013 (the "2013 Notes") had the right to surrender their 2013 Notes for purchase by us at their option (the "Put Option") pursuant to the terms of the indenture governing the 2013 Notes, dated as of January 16, 2013 entered into with The Bank of New York Mellon (the "2013 Indenture") any time before January 31, 2020. As of January 31, 2020, as of the expiration of the Put Option, at the discretion of the holders, $49,000 aggregate principal amount of the 2013 Notes were put to us to be redeemed, and $4,000 of debt was converted to equity.
The remaining outstanding 2013 Notes were callable by us at par, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, at any time at our election giving due notice, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the 2013 Indenture. On February 13, 2020, we provided notice of redemption to call the remaining outstanding 2013 Notes.
On March 30, 2020, we redeemed all of our remaining outstanding 2013 Notes consisting of an aggregate principal amount of $114,947,000 plus accrued interest of $542,000 in exchange for payment of cash of $115,487,000 and equity of $2,000.

On March 19, 2019, we issued $230,000,000 of 2.50% convertible senior notes due in 2039 (the “2019 Notes”) for net proceeds of $222,932,000 after payment of commissions and expenses related to the offering of $7,067,000. 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 year. The 2019 Notes are convertible into our 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 2019 Notes are convertible into our common shares at an initial conversion rate of 54.1082 common shares per $1,000 principal amount of 2019 Notes converted, representing an initial conversion price of $18.48 per common share.
Prior to April 1, 2023, we may not redeem the 2019 Notes, except in the event of certain changes in Canadian tax laws. On or after April 1, 2023 and prior to April 1, 2026 we may redeem all or part of the 2019 Notes for cash, but only if the last reported sales price of our 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, we may redeem the 2019 Notes in full or in part, for cash.
Holders of the 2019 Notes have the right to require us 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 100% of the 2019 Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the repurchase date.

DEBT (continued)

The proceeds of the 2019 Notes were bifurcated between their debt and equity components. The fair value of the debt portion of $169,365,000 was estimated using a discounted cash flow model method based on an expected life of seven years and a discount rate of 7.5%. The residual amount of $44,766,000 ($60,635,000 less deferred tax liability of $15,869,000) was allocated to equity. The debt portion has been recorded at amortized cost, net of transaction costs, and is being accreted to face value over the expected life using the effective interest method.

The transaction costs of the issuance of the 2019 Notes of $7,068,000 were allocated on a pro rata basis with $5,205,000 to debt and $1,863,000 to equity.

ACQUISITION OF NON-CONTROLLING INTEREST

On September 18, 2019, we acquired the remaining 25% interest in Puna Operations Inc. from Golden Arrow Resources Corporation ("Golden Arrow") for aggregate consideration totaling $32,364,000, consisting of $2,261,000 of cash, the extinguishment of the loan to Golden Arrow and related interest of $11,369,000, the issuance of $18,218,000 of our common shares, and the transfer of shares in Golden Arrow we owned, with a fair value of $516,000, for cancellation.

As the acquisition did not result in a change of control, the acquisition was accounted for as an equity transaction whereby the non-controlling interest of $33,981,000 in Puna Operations recognized prior to the acquisition was adjusted to nil in our condensed consolidated interim statements of financial position. Further, the difference of $1,617,000 between the carrying value of the non-controlling interest in Puna Operations at the time of acquisition and the fair value of the consideration paid by us to Golden Arrow of $32,364,000 million was recognized in equity. In addition, transaction costs we incurred in connection with the transaction of $154,000 were recognized as a reduction of equity.

Under our 2017 Share Compensation Plan, we have the option to settle vested performance share units ("PSUs") in either cash or common shares.  On February 22, 2019 our Board of Directors indicated its intention to settle all of the PSUs issued under our 2017 Share Compensation Plan, when vested, in our common shares. Prior to this date, based on our past history of settling PSUs in cash, we had accounted for our obligations as a liability. As a result of this change, the value of the relevant outstanding PSUs was fixed at that date and the existing liability of $1,764,000 ($1,284,000 net of tax) was transferred to the share-based compensation reserve of shareholders’ equity. The unamortized portion of $4,652,000 relating to these PSUs are being amortized over the remaining vesting periods.

OPERATING SEGMENTS

Operating results of operating segments are reviewed by our chief operating decision maker to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segments and to assess their performance. We consider each individual operating mine site as a reportable operating segment for financial reporting purposes. In addition, exploration and evaluation projects have been aggregated into a single reportable segment as they all have similar characteristics and do not exceed the quantitative thresholds for individual disclosure.

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

Other reconciling items refer to items that are not reported as part of segment performance as they are managed on a corporate basis.
(2) 
On March 20, 2020, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we temporarily suspended operations at our Puna Operations in compliance with government decree. During this time, we 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, and therefore they have been identified and presented separately within operating income (loss).
(3) 
Cost of sales at Puna Operations includes a write-down of inventories to net realizable value of $8.5 million. Of the write-down amount, $7.2 million is included in production costs and $1.3 million in depreciation and depletion.

12.FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

(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.

The levels in the fair value hierarchy into which our financial assets and liabilities that are measured and recognized in the condensed consolidated interim statements of financial position at fair value on a recurring basis were categorized as follows:

Accrued liabilities relating to deferred share units (DSUs), restricted share units (RSUs), and PSUs and derivative assets and liabilities are included in Level 2 as the basis of valuation uses quoted prices in active markets.
(3) 
Certain items of deferred consideration from the sale of exploration and evaluation assets are included in Level 3, as certain assumptions used in the calculation of the fair value are not based on observable market data.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

(a)
On May 10, 2020, we entered into an arrangement agreement with Alacer Gold Corp. (“Alacer”) under which we will acquire all of the outstanding common shares of Alacer (the “Proposed Transaction”). Under the terms of the Proposed Transaction, we will acquire each Alacer share for 0.3246 of an SSR Mining share. The Proposed Transaction will be implemented by way of a court-approved plan of arrangement under the Business Corporation Act (Yukon) and is expected to close in the third quarter of 2020. The terms of the Proposed Transaction include customary provisions, including non-solicitation of alternative transactions, a right to match superior proposals and a $70 million reciprocal termination fee payable under certain circumstances. The closing of the Proposed Transaction is subject to approval by the shareholders of both companies, court approval, regulatory approvals and certain other customary closing conditions.

(b)
On May 14, 2020, we entered into an agreement to sell our SilverCrest Metals Inc. equity position of 9.0 million common shares at a price of C$10.06 per common share for gross proceeds of C$90.5 million, or $64.7 million. At March 31, 2020, the carrying value of these shares included in marketable securities was $46.8 million.
