Double digit production increases and cost
reductions along with higher prices led to $49 million of net
income, $126 million of adjusted EBITDA1, and strong free cash
flow
Coeur Mining, Inc. (“Coeur” or the “Company”) (NYSE: CDE) today
reported third quarter 2024 financial results, including revenue of
$313 million and cash flow from operating activities of $111
million. The Company reported GAAP net income from continuing
operations of $49 million, or $0.12 per share. On an adjusted
basis1, Coeur reported EBITDA of $126 million, cash flow from
operating activities before changes in working capital of $87
million and net income from continuing operations of $47 million,
or $0.12 per share.
Key Highlights
- Strong production increases and lower costs across the
portfolio – Higher production at all four operations drove a
21% increase in gold production and 15% increase in silver
production, totaling 94,993 and 3.0 million ounces of gold and
silver, respectively. Costs applicable to sales per gold and silver
ounce both declined 12% compared to the prior quarter, leading to
margins more than double the prior period. Based on strong
year-to-date production and cost performance, the Company
reaffirmed its full-year guidance ranges
- Robust quarterly financial performance driven by higher
production and metals prices – Revenue of $313 million and
adjusted EBITDA1 of $126 million increased 41% and 140%
quarter-over-quarter, respectively. Operating cash flow totaled
$111 million and free cash flow reached $69 million during the
quarter, their highest levels in over a decade. Net income was $49
million and Adjusted EBITDA1 over the last twelve months (“LTM”)
increased 2.5x to $287 million compared to a year ago
- Rochester remains on-track to achieve year-end throughput
and production guidance – The recently expanded Rochester
silver and gold operation placed approximately 7.1 million tons
under leach during the quarter leading to production of 1.2 million
ounces of silver and 9,690 ounces of gold, representing
quarter-over-quarter increases of 19% and 21%, respectively. The
Company has reaffirmed full-year Rochester production guidance
ranges and expects approximately 7.0 - 8.0 million tons to be
placed under leach in the fourth quarter
- Announced acquisition of SilverCrest to create leading
global silver company – On October 4, 2024, Coeur announced an
agreement to acquire SilverCrest Metals Inc. (“SilverCrest”) in an
all-stock transaction with an implied value of approximately $1.7
billion as of the announcement date. The acquisition is anticipated
to close in the first quarter of 2025 and is expected to materially
enhance the Company’s cost and cash flow profile and immediately
accelerate the Company’s balance sheet de-leveraging
initiative
- Debt reduction initiative underway – During the third
quarter, the Company reduced its outstanding revolving credit
facility (“RCF”)2 balance by $50 million to $225 million, leading
to total liquidity of $222 million, including $77 million of cash,
and a net debt to EBITDA ratio below 2.0x for the first time in
three years
“Our strong third quarter operational and financial results
signal the beginning of what we expect to be a new chapter of
consistent free cash flow for Coeur,” said Mitchell J. Krebs,
Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Although higher
prices helped magnify our robust results, the team’s continued
focus on operational excellence drove costs down, leading to
significantly higher margins. Rochester continues to gather steam
during the second half and remains on-track to deliver a
step-change in production and cash flow during the remainder of the
year and be well-positioned to deliver a record breaking 2025.
“Furthermore, the recently announced acquisition of SilverCrest
and its high-grade, low-cost Las Chispas operation, coupled with
Rochester’s post-expansion profile, positions Coeur as a leading
silver company in terms of production, market capitalization and
liquidity, balance sheet flexibility, and cash flow profile at a
time when silver’s outlook continues to strengthen.”

Financial Results
Third quarter 2024 revenue totaled $313 million compared to $222
million in the prior period and $195 million in the third quarter
of 2023. The Company produced 94,993 and 3.0 million ounces of gold
and silver, respectively, during the quarter. Metal sales for the
quarter totaled 96,913 ounces of gold and 3.0 million ounces of
silver. Average realized gold and silver prices for the quarter
were $2,309 and $29.86 per ounce, respectively, compared to $2,003
and $26.20 per ounce in the prior period and $1,788 and $24.88 per
ounce in the third quarter of 2023.
Gold and silver sales represented 71% and 29% of quarterly
revenue, respectively, compared to 69% and 31% in the prior period.
The Company’s U.S. operations accounted for approximately 65% of
third quarter revenue compared to 63% in the second quarter of
2024.
Adjusted Costs applicable to sales per ounce1 of gold and silver
each decreased 12% quarter-over-quarter, largely due to higher
production in the period. General and administrative expenses
remained consistent quarter-over-quarter at $11 million.
Coeur invested approximately $25 million ($20 million expensed
and $5 million capitalized) in exploration during the quarter,
compared to approximately $18 million ($13 million expensed and $5
million capitalized) in the prior period. See the “Operations” and
“Exploration” sections for additional detail on the Company’s
exploration activities.
The Company recorded income tax expense of approximately $26
million during the third quarter. Cash income and mining taxes paid
during the period totaled approximately $9 million.
Quarterly operating cash flow totaled $111 million compared to
$15 million in the prior period, mainly driven by stronger
operating performance at each site and higher metals prices.
Third quarter capital expenditures were $42 million compared to
$51 million in the prior period, reflecting timing of payments
related to the Rochester expansion in the prior period. Sustaining
and development capital expenditures accounted for approximately
$35 million and $7 million, or 84% and 16%, respectively, of
Coeur’s total capital investment during the quarter.
SilverCrest Acquisition Transaction
On October 4, 2024, Coeur announced it had entered into a
definitive agreement (the “Agreement”) whereby a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Coeur will acquire all of the issued and outstanding
shares of SilverCrest pursuant to a British Columbia court-approved
plan of arrangement (the “Transaction”). Subject to satisfaction of
closing conditions, including requisite approvals by the
stockholders of Coeur, the shareholders of SilverCrest and
applicable regulators, the acquisition is expected to close late in
the first quarter of 2025.
Upon completion of the Transaction, existing Coeur stockholders
and SilverCrest shareholders will own approximately 63% and 37% of
the outstanding common stock of the combined company,
respectively.

Operational
- Third quarter gold and silver production totaled 27,549 and 1.8
million ounces, respectively, compared to 25,467 and 1.6 million
ounces in the prior period and 26,870 and 1.6 million ounces in the
third quarter of 2023
- Higher production during the quarter was primarily driven by
higher average grades and recoveries, partially offset by lower
tons milled
Financial
- Adjusted CAS1 for gold and silver on a co-product basis
decreased 19% and 17% quarter-over-quarter to $818 and $12.60 per
ounce, respectively, driven by higher metal sales
- Capital expenditures increased 36% quarter-over-quarter to $8
million, reflecting higher underground development primarily
focused on Hidalgo, which is expected to create additional
operating flexibility by year-end
- Free cash flow1 in the third quarter totaled $48 million
compared to $18 million in the prior period
Exploration
- Exploration investment for the third quarter totaled
approximately $4 million (substantially all expensed) compared to
roughly $3 million (substantially all expensed) in the prior
period
- Up to seven rigs were active during the quarter, mainly focused
on the Zapata - Guadalupe corridor, expansion drilling along the
western extension of the Hidalgo corridor (La Libertad), and
targets within Hidalgo and multiple structures parallel to
Independencia
- Drilling along strike of La Libertad continues to encounter
favorable host rocks and hydrothermal quartz-calcite vein and
breccia splay zones with drilling showing potential for future
resource expansion
- Exploration and prospecting continue immediately east of the
current operation and outside of the area subject to the gold
stream. Mapping of recently acquired claims from Fresnillo located
immediately southeast of existing operations has identified
brecciated and silicified veins that are believed to be extensions
and parallel veins to those currently being mined
- Geological mapping continues to the east of Palmarejo in the
Guazapares area around the San Miguel and San Antonio prospects and
has successfully identified new vein extensions and parallel
structures, signaling promising prospects for future exploration.
Scout drilling commenced on one target in this district during the
quarter
Other
- Approximately 30% of Palmarejo’s gold sales in the third
quarter were sold under the gold stream agreement at a price of
$800 per ounce, totaling 8,720 ounces. The Company anticipates
approximately 30% - 40% of Palmarejo’s 2024 gold sales will be sold
under the gold stream agreement
Guidance
- Full-year 2024 production is expected to be 95,000 - 103,000
ounces of gold and 5.9 - 6.7 million ounces of silver
- CAS1 in 2024 are expected to be $950 - $1,150 per gold ounce
and $15.50 - $16.50 per silver ounce
- Capital expenditures are expected to be $27 - $37 million,
consisting primarily of sustaining capital and underground
development

Operational
- Silver and gold production in the third quarter totaled 1.2
million and 9,690 ounces, respectively, compared to 973,057 and
8,006 ounces in the prior period and 607,735 and 4,459 ounces in
the third quarter of 2023
- Ore tons placed increased 38% quarter-over-quarter to 7.1
million tons, including approximately 6.4 million tons through the
new crushing circuit and roughly 650,000 tons of high-grade
backfill direct-to-pad material placed on the stage six leach pad.
The Company expects to place approximately 7.0 - 8.0 million tons
on the stage six leach pad in the fourth quarter
Financial
- Third quarter adjusted CAS1 for silver and gold on a co-product
basis totaled $20.88 and $1,735 per ounce, respectively, mainly
driven by higher metals sales
- Capital expenditures decreased 63% quarter-over-quarter to $10
million, reflecting lower spend after an earlier-than-expected
conclusion of final negotiations with a key construction contractor
and corresponding earlier payment of costs in the previous
quarter
- Free cash flow1 in the third quarter totaled $(7) million
compared to $(33) million in the prior period
Exploration
- Exploration investment in the third quarter totaled
approximately $3 million ($1 million expensed and $2 million
capitalized) compared to roughly $2 million ($1 million expensed
and $1 million capitalized) in the prior quarter
- Near-term exploration objectives at Rochester aim to augment
the grade profile of the current 16-year reserve-only mine life
with the goal of enhancing cash flow
- Two diamond drill rigs were active at East Rochester during the
quarter targeting the Wedge and Black Ridge Fault areas located
immediately east of the Rochester pit. The holes are testing for
extensions to mineralization and for higher grades located along
structures
- Other activities during the quarter included re-logging,
reinterpreting and geological modeling of core and reverse
circulation chips from legacy drillholes, with new geology models
for Nevada Packard and Lincoln Hill underway. Additionally, a
geophysical magnetics survey was flown over the land package to aid
district exploration
- Drilling at Nevada Packard is planned for the fourth quarter to
confirm the new model and establish controls on higher-grade
mineralization that is expected to guide further exploration
Guidance
- Full-year 2024 production is expected to be 4.8 - 6.6 million
ounces of silver and 37,000 - 50,000 ounces of gold
- CAS1 for the second half of 2024 are expected to be $18.00 -
$20.00 per silver ounce and $1,500 - $1,700 per gold ounce
- Capital expenditures are expected to be $61 - $79 million,
which reflects the ramp-up of the completed Rochester expansion as
well as sustaining capital and an earlier-than-expected conclusion
to certain final negotiations and payments related to the Rochester
expansion that were originally estimated to take place in 2025

Operational
- Gold production in the third quarter increased 53%
quarter-over-quarter to 33,650 ounces, largely due to timing of
ounces placed on the leach pads and higher average gold grade due
to positive reconciliation of the tons placed. Year-over-year
production for the quarter increased 48%
Financial
- Adjusted CAS1 on a by-product basis increased 8%
quarter-over-quarter to $885 per ounce, largely driven by
decreasing favorable recoveries on legacy pads from the prior
period
- Capital expenditures increased slightly quarter-over-quarter to
approximately $3 million
- Free cash flow1 in the third quarter totaled an all-time high
$49 million compared to $16 million in the prior period, reflecting
higher gold sales
Exploration
- Exploration investment during the quarter totaled $2 million
(substantially all expensed) compared to $1 million (substantially
all expensed) in the prior quarter
- Increased exploration investment during the quarter was mainly
driven by an expanded program that commenced after opportunities
were recognized to meaningfully extend the mine life at Wharf
- Two rigs were active during the quarter at the Juno and North
Foley deposits undertaking infill and expansion drilling
Guidance
- Full-year 2024 production is expected to be 86,000 - 96,000
gold ounces
- CAS1 in 2024 are expected to be $950 - $1,050 per gold
ounce
- Capital expenditures are expected to be $5 - $7 million
Exploration
The Company’s exploration investment in 2024 is expected to
total $40 - $50 million for expansion drilling (classified as
exploration expense) and $15 - $20 million for infill drilling
(capitalized exploration).
Top exploration priorities for the Company’s 2024 exploration
program include: (1) building reserves and extending mine life at
Kensington to over five years by year-end; (2) pursuing higher
grade structures at Rochester to enhance the near-term margin and
cash flow profile of the newly-expanded operation; (3) building out
a robust pipeline of inferred resources at Palmarejo to potentially
drive future reserve growth; (4) further extending Wharf’s
reserve-based mine life; and (5) expanding and enhancing the
understanding of the evolving world-class polymetallic Silvertip
system located in British Columbia.
During the third quarter, Coeur invested approximately $25
million ($20 million expensed and $5 million capitalized), compared
to roughly $18 million ($13 million expensed and $5 million
capitalized) in the prior period.
At Silvertip, exploration investment totaled approximately $9
million in the third quarter, compared to $6 million in the prior
period. The Company expects to invest $11 - $14 million in
exploration at Silvertip in 2024, which excludes $15 - $20 million
related to underground mine development and site support costs.
The objectives of the 2024 exploration program at Silvertip are
to: (1) grow the known mineralized structures such as the Southern
Silver zone from underground drilling focusing on along-strike and
down-dip potential that has been identified; (2) drill much larger
step-outs on major structures using surface drilling with a key
focus on the Southern Silver, Saddle and Camp Creek zones; and (3)
carry out district-scale field work to identify Silvertip
lookalikes and other large structures with potential to host large
ore bodies and to identify the outer limits of this large
system.
This three-pronged approach is progressing well with surface
mapping and sampling completed during the quarter, surface drilling
with two rigs were completed at the end of October and one
underground drill rig continuing in November.
2024 Guidance
Production during the third quarter was in-line with Coeur’s
expectations, leading the Company to reaffirm 2024 production and
cost guidance.
The below exploration expense guidance excludes $15 - $20
million of underground mine development and support costs
associated with Silvertip.

Non-U.S. GAAP Measures
We supplement the reporting of our financial information
determined under United States generally accepted accounting
principles (U.S. GAAP) with certain non-U.S. GAAP financial
measures, including EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA
margin, free cash flow, adjusted net income (loss), operating cash
flow before changes in working capital and adjusted costs
applicable to sales per ounce (gold and silver) or pound (zinc or
lead). We believe that these adjusted measures provide meaningful
information to assist management, investors and analysts in
understanding our financial results and assessing our prospects for
future performance. We believe these adjusted financial measures
are important indicators of our recurring operations because they
exclude items that may not be indicative of, or are unrelated to
our core operating results, and provide a better baseline for
analyzing trends in our underlying businesses. We believe EBITDA,
adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, free cash flow, adjusted
net income (loss) and adjusted costs applicable to sales per ounce
(gold and silver) and pound (zinc and lead) are important measures
in assessing the Company’s overall financial performance. For
additional explanation regarding our use of non-U.S. GAAP financial
measures, please refer to our Form 10-K for the year ended December
31, 2023.
Notes
- EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, free cash
flow, adjusted net income (loss), operating cash flow before
changes in working capital and adjusted costs applicable to sales
per ounce (gold and silver) are non-GAAP measures. Please see
tables in the Appendix for the reconciliation to U.S. GAAP. Free
cash flow is defined as cash flow from operating activities less
capital expenditures. Liquidity is defined as cash and cash
equivalents plus availability under the Company’s RCF. Future
borrowing under the RCF may be subject to certain financial
covenants. Please see tables in Appendix for the calculation of
consolidated free cash flow and liquidity.
- As of September 30, 2024, Coeur had $30 million in outstanding
letters of credit and $225 million in outstanding borrowings under
its RCF. Future borrowing under the RCF may be subject to certain
financial covenants.
- Excludes amortization.
- Includes capital leases. Net of debt issuance costs and premium
received.
