Ramp-up of Rochester Operation Complete; Maintaining 2024 Production Guidance Ranges
CHICAGO--BUSINESS WIRE--
Coeur Mining, Inc. ("Coeur" or the "Company") (NYSE: CDE) today reported second quarter 2024 financial results, including revenue of $222 million and cash flow from operating activities of $15 million. The Company reported GAAP net income from continuing operations of $1 million, or $0.00 per share. On an adjusted basis1, Coeur reported EBITDA of $52 million, cash flow from operating activities before changes in working capital of $28 million and net loss from continuing operations of $3 million, or $0.01 per share.
Key Highlights
- Recently expanded Rochester achieves mid-year target run rates - Rochester successfully completed ramp-up activities by achieving throughput rates of over 88,000 tons per day. Annual throughput levels are expected to be approximately 2.5 times higher than historical levels, or roughly 32 million tons per year, leading to expected strong increases in production and free cash flow and substantially lower unit costs. Rochester's second quarter silver and gold production both increased 39% compared to the first quarter
- Higher prices drove strong revenue and adjusted EBITDA1 increases - The Company's average realized gold and silver prices increased by approximately 11% and 10% year-over-year, respectively. Together with a 76% year-over-year increase in gold production at Kensington, second quarter revenue increased 25% and adjusted EBITDA1 jumped 136% year-over-year. Adjusted EBITDA1 over the last twelve months increased to $192 million, representing an 89% year-over-year increase
- Continued positive results from Kensington's multi-year exploration program - The Company's June 27, 2024 update highlighted Kensington's successful multi-year development and exploration program, which is expected to be completed in the first half of 2025 and is targeting a year-end reserves-based mine life of over five years at year-end 2024 and a return to positive free cash flow during the second half of next year
- Closed the acquisition of key concessions near Palmarejo - On July 8, 2024, the purchase of two strategic blocks of mining concessions adjacent to the Palmarejo gold-silver complex was completed. The purchase from a subsidiary of Fresnillo plc ("Fresnillo") unlocks significant near-term and longer-term potential to extend Palmarejo's mine life to the east of the existing operation
- Hedging program concluded - The Company's gold and silver hedging program that was utilized during the construction and ramp-up of Rochester was completed during the second quarter; Coeur is fully exposed to commodity prices going forward
- Silvertip summer exploration program now underway - The robust 2024 program includes large step-out drilling on known structures, significant mapping and sampling, and geophysics to rapidly explore a wider portion of the permitted ground. The program aims to grow near-mine resources through underground drilling, take large step-outs on known structures to assist with rapid resource growth, identify the outer edges of the system, and identify additional, nearby structures with potential to host mineralization similar to Silvertip
- 2024 production guidance ranges maintained; cost guidance adjusted - The Company is maintaining its full-year production guidance ranges of 310,000 - 355,000 gold ounces and 10.7 - 13.3 million silver ounces. Full-year CAS1 guidance at Palmarejo and Wharf have been reduced to reflect strong cost management efforts, while Rochester's second half CAS1 guidance ranges have been increased to reflect timing of ounces placed under leach. Additionally, the Company is increasing its full-year exploration guidance to reflect additional investment at Wharf and Kensington based on recent results, while capital expenditure guidance is being increased to reflect the accelerated timing of certain equipment purchases and final payments related to the Rochester expansion
"The entire portfolio is hitting on all cylinders as we approach the second half free cash flow inflection point following the successful mid-year ramp-up of Rochester," said Mitchell J. Krebs, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. "Improved operating performance at Kensington was especially noteworthy as operational improvements and capital investments over the last two-plus years begin to take hold. Our Palmarejo operation in Mexico has also taken a major step forward with two large, newly-acquired concession blocks that create a highly prospective and contiguous land package to the east of existing operations and outside the gold stream area of interest, which now becomes a key focus of exploration going forward.
"Rochester now stands on the threshold of a sustained period of strong free cash flow generation beginning in the second half of this year, while Kensington continues to move toward its own anticipated return to free cash flow generation in the second half of 2025. Coupled with the near-term growth opportunities at Palmarejo East and at our Wharf operation, along with the longer-term potential at Silvertip, Coeur's portfolio is well-positioned for success. Planned debt reduction efforts are set to further enhance our unique positioning within our sector as a multi-asset portfolio concentrated in top-tier jurisdictions with unmatched leverage to silver and significant cash flow growth driven by elevated levels of investments over the past five years."

Financial Results
Second quarter 2024 revenue totaled $222 million compared to $213 million in the prior period and $177 million in the second quarter of 2023. The Company produced 78,696 and 2.6 million ounces of gold and silver, respectively, during the quarter. Metal sales for the quarter totaled 76,932 ounces of gold and 2.6 million ounces of silver. Average realized gold and silver prices for the quarter were $2,003 and $26.20 per ounce, respectively, compared to $1,864 and $23.57 per ounce in the prior period and $1,809 and $23.91 per ounce in the second quarter of 2023.
Gold and silver sales represented 69% and 31% of quarterly revenue, respectively, compared to 71% and 29% in the prior period. The Company's U.S. operations accounted for approximately 63% of second quarter revenue compared to 55% in the first quarter of 2024.
Costs applicable to sales2 decreased 1% quarter-over-quarter to $145 million, largely due to lower production in the period. General and administrative expenses decreased 22% quarter-over-quarter to $11 million largely driven by annual incentive payouts in the prior period.
Coeur invested approximately $18 million ($13 million expensed and $5 million capitalized) in exploration during the quarter, compared to roughly $14 million ($11 million expensed and $3 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 $7 million during the second quarter. Cash income and mining taxes paid during the period totaled approximately $4 million.
Quarterly operating cash flow totaled $15 million compared to $(16) million in the prior period, mainly driven by stronger operating performance at Rochester, Kensington and Wharf as well as favorable changes in working capital, reflecting the timing of tax payments in Mexico and semi-annual interest payments on the Company's 2029 5.125% Senior Notes in the previous period.
Second quarter capital expenditures were $51 million compared to $42 million in the prior period, reflecting timing of payments related to the Rochester expansion as well as increased underground mine development at Kensington. Sustaining and development capital expenditures accounted for approximately $31 million and $20 million, or 60% and 40%, respectively, of Coeur's total capital investment during the quarter.
Fresnillo Concessions Transaction
On July 8, 2024, Coeur closed the purchase of mining concessions adjacent to the Palmarejo gold-silver complex located in the state of Chihuahua, Mexico from Fresnillo for total cash consideration of $25 million, including $10 million paid at closing, $10 million to be paid in 2025, $5 million to be paid in 2026 and a future royalty on certain ounces discovered on the purchased concessions. This transaction completes Coeur's district scale land package from the existing operations to the Guazapares area to the Eastern Palmarejo district, filling in two strategic gaps and forming a single contiguous district spanning over 40,000 acres of highly prospective and under-explored ground that sits outside the Franco-Nevada gold stream area of interest.
The set of acquired concessions located nearest the existing operation - the Independencia Sur claim block - covers the southeast extensions of the Independencia and La Nacion veins where mining currently takes place and is expected to be a key focus of the Company's near-term development efforts. Historical drilling by Fresnillo, mainly along the Independencia vein, comprises approximately 82,000 meters from 111 drillholes. Very little drilling was undertaken along the strike extension of the La Nacion structure and is a high priority for drilling. Other veins, including Portales and Bruno, comprise additional targets for drill testing. No resource estimation under Item 1300 of SEC Regulation S-K currently exists on the property.
Coeur began mapping and surface sampling of the Independencia Sur vein structures in 2023, which have successfully traced the surface expression of the known veins. Future work is initially expected to consist of re-logging drillholes, additional detailed surface mapping and sampling, and incorporation of data into district geographic information system and geologic models. The Company plans to undertake an initial drill program to validate historic drilling and refine targets, with a subsequent expansion program followed by a maiden resource estimate.
The set of acquired concessions located further to the northeast surrounds multiple targets containing mineralization and historic resources, portions of which were added through Coeur's 2015 acquisition of Paramount Gold and Silver. These concessions are part of a larger and unexplored east Palmarejo district and are expected to be part of a systematic exploration program to consolidate previous exploration on Coeur's claims, including confirmation and step-out drilling of several advanced targets on the old Paramount claims onto the new Fresnillo claims.
Another northwest trending, sub-parallel trend to Independencia Sur and Guazapares exists between these two areas known as the El Camuchin - Escondida trend. Detailed mapping and sampling over the last two years have outlined several key targets on this trend, one of which is planned to be drilled this year.

Operational
- Second quarter gold and silver production totaled 25,467 and 1.6 million ounces, respectively, compared to 33,160 and 1.8 million ounces in the prior period and 23,216 and 1.6 million ounces in the second quarter of 2023
- Lower production during the quarter was driven primarily by lower throughput due to mine sequencing and decreased average recoveries, partially offset by higher average silver grade
Financial
- Adjusted CAS1 for gold and silver on a co-product basis increased 12% and 16% quarter-over-quarter to $1,006 and $15.24 per ounce, respectively, driven by lower metal sales
- Capital expenditures decreased 13% quarter-over-quarter to $6 million, reflecting decreased fleet investment, partially offset by higher underground development primarily focused on Hidalgo which is expected to create additional operating flexibility in the latter part of 2024
- Free cash flow1 in the second quarter totaled $18 million compared to $19 million in the prior period
Exploration
- Exploration investment for the second quarter remained relatively consistent to the prior quarter at approximately $3 million (substantially all expensed)
- Up to five rigs were active during the quarter, mainly focused on the Zapata - Guadalupe corridor, expansion drilling along the western extension of the Hidalgo corridor, and targets within Hidalgo and structures parallel to Independencia
- Drilling along strike of La Libertad is encountering favorable host rocks and hydrothermal quartz-calcite vein and breccia zones west of mine resources with drilling ongoing
- At the Zapata - Guadalupe target, drilling confirmed the westward strike extensions of the Guadalupe North and Zapata veins and revealed a new structure with promising indications of additional mineralization. This zone is showing excellent potential for future resource expansion
- Exploration efforts continue immediately east of the current operation and outside of the area subject to the gold stream. Mapping has identified brecciated and silicified veins southeast of existing operations, which are believed to run parallel to the primary vein systems currently being mined nearby
- Ongoing geological mapping in the Guazapares area to the east of Palmarejo has successfully identified new vein extensions and parallel structures, signaling promising prospects for future exploration
Other
- Approximately 29% of Palmarejo's gold sales in the second quarter were sold under the gold stream agreement at a price of $800 per ounce, totaling 7,021 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 (previously $1,075 - $1,275 per gold ounce and $16.50 - $17.50 per silver ounce)
- Capital expenditures are expected to be $27 - $37 million (previously $32 - $42 million), consisting primarily of sustaining capital and underground development

Operational
- Silver and gold production in the second quarter totaled 973,057 and 8,006 ounces, respectively, compared to 699,190 and 5,755 ounces in the prior period and 682,656 and 6,314 ounces in the second quarter of 2023. Average silver grade increased by 13% and 40% compared to the previous period and the second quarter of 2023, respectively
- The Company successfully completed the ramp-up of all three stages of the crushing circuit by the end the second quarter by achieving throughput rates of over 88,000 tons per day. Ore tons placed increased 63% quarter-over-quarter to 5.1 million tons, including approximately 4.3 million tons through the new crushing circuit and placed on the stage 6 leach pad and roughly 0.8 million tons of run-of-mine material placed on the legacy stage 4 leach pad. Crushing and placement rates were lighter than initially planned for the full quarter primarily driven by down days to address ramp-up related adjustments that were identified while mining rates exceeded plan
Financial
- Second quarter adjusted CAS1 for silver and gold on a co-product basis totaled $21.58 and $1,813 per ounce, respectively, mainly driven by increased tons placed from the newly expanded operation as Coeur ramped up production
- Capital expenditures increased 30% quarter-over-quarter to $28 million, reflecting an earlier-than-expected conclusion of final negotiations with the key construction contractor and corresponding earlier payment of costs originally estimated to take place in 2025
- Free cash flow1 in the second quarter totaled $(33) million compared to $(40) million in the prior period
Exploration
- Exploration investment in the second quarter totaled approximately $2 million ($1.0 million expensed and $0.9 million capitalized) compared to roughly $1 million ($0.4 million expensed and $0.1 million capitalized) in the prior quarter
- One diamond rig commenced drilling at Rochester during the quarter. The rig is drilling from the east side of the Rochester pit to test the Wedge area located adjacent to the pit for potential grade enhancement opportunities in the Wedge area and on structures in the East Rochester portion of the deposit
- Second quarter activities also included preparation for additional 2024 drill programs, core and RC chip re-logging, interpretation and geological modeling, with a new geology model for Nevada Packard underway. This work is expected to refine understanding on the controls to mineralization at this deposit and guide remaining 2024 drill planning
- The primary focus of drilling over the balance of 2024 is the assessment of the potential for higher grades on structures identified at Rochester East, immediately east of the pit wall, and Nevada Packard. Near-term exploration objectives aim to augment the grade profile of the current 16-year reserves-only mine life with the goal of enhancing cash flow
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 (previously $14.00 - $16.00 per silver ounce and $1,200 - $1,400 per gold ounce)
- Capital expenditures are expected to be $61 - $79 million (previously $50 - $70 million), which reflects fleet enhancements as part of the ramp-up of the newly 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 second quarter totaled 23,202 ounces compared to 21,434 ounces in the prior period and 13,193 ounces in the second quarter of 2023
- Higher production during the quarter was driven by increased tons milled and higher average recoveries
Financial
- Second quarter adjusted CAS1 totaled $1,734 per ounce compared to $1,840 per ounce in the prior period, reflecting increased metal sales
- Capital expenditures increased 24% quarter-over-quarter to $17 million. Capital expenditures during the quarter continued to focus on capital development to support the ongoing multi-year development and exploration program aimed at extending mine life
- Free cash flow1 in the second quarter totaled $(24) million compared to $(12) million in the prior period
Exploration
- Exploration investment in the quarter totaled approximately $6 million ($1 million expensed and $4 million capitalized), compared to $4 million ($2 million expensed and $3 million capitalized) in the prior period
- Up to four rigs were active at Kensington, with drilling focused on both infill and extension of the current resource boundaries
- At the recently identified Zone 50 in Lower Kensington, drilling continues to show significant growth of the zone, both along strike and down dip
- At Elmira, expansion and infill drilling activities are ongoing, with consistent intersection of broad zones of mineralization, especially notable in the upper sections of the deposit. Elmira Main and Elmira South have now been connected, and recent results in Elmira South suggest that the Elmira Main structure splits into a hanging wall and a footwall structure. Both structures are being traced along strike, with mineralization observed throughout the zone between them. Additionally, detailed structure modelling is also continuing, with the Elmira deposit model now almost complete
- Overall drilling at Kensington continues to demonstrate meaningful progress toward building a reserve base to support mine life for at least the next five years
Guidance
- Full-year 2024 production is expected to be 92,000 - 106,000 gold ounces
- CAS1 in 2024 are expected to be $1,525 - $1,725 per gold ounce
- Capital expenditures are expected to be $63 - $68 million (previously $44 - $56 million), of which approximately $33 - $39 million (previously $23 - $29 million) and $6 - $13 million (previously $5 - $10 million) is related to accelerated rates of underground development and infill drilling, respectively, as part of the Company's successful multi-year exploration program

Operational
- Gold production in the second quarter increased 8% quarter-over-quarter to 22,021 ounces, largely due to timing of ounces placed on the leach pads. Year-over-year production for the quarter decreased 14%
Financial
- Adjusted CAS1 on a by-product basis decreased 29% quarter-over-quarter to $822 per ounce, largely driven by favorable recovery rates from legacy pads
- Capital expenditures increased slightly quarter-over-quarter to approximately $1 million
- Free cash flow1 in the second quarter totaled $16 million compared to $11 million in the prior period, reflecting higher gold sales and decreased costs
Exploration
- Exploration investment during the quarter totaled $1 million (substantially all expensed) compared to $0.1 million (substantially all expensed) in the prior quarter
- During the second quarter, exploration drilling commenced at the Juno deposit with one rig active
- Recently-completed studies of two areas within existing and historical mining zones at Wharf have identified opportunities to meaningfully extend overall mine life. Supplemental funding has been approved for a two-phased drilling program in 2024 and 2025 to test the two targets, Juno and North Foley
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 (previously $1,100 - $1,200 per gold ounce)
- Capital expenditures are expected to be $5 - $7 million
Exploration
The Company's exploration investment in 2024 is now expected to total $40 - $50 million for expansion drilling (classified as exploration expense) and $15 - $20 million (previously $7 - $13 million) for infill drilling (capitalized exploration). The full-year guidance range for infill drilling has been increased to reflect additional exploration investment at Wharf to drill the Juno and North Foley targets and at Kensington to continue drilling in zones in Upper and Lower Kensington.
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 second quarter, Coeur invested approximately $18 million ($13 million expensed and $5 million capitalized), compared to roughly $14 million ($11 million expensed and $3 million capitalized) in the prior period.
At Silvertip, exploration investment totaled approximately $6 million in the second quarter, compared to $5 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.
2024 Guidance
The Company has reaffirmed its 2024 production guidance. Due to strong operational performance and cost control measures, Coeur has lowered cost guidance at Palmarejo and Wharf.
With the ramp-up of the new Merrill-Crowe facility and three-stage crusher corridor at Rochester completed, the Company has provided updated cost guidance for Rochester for the second half of 2024, which is reflected below. In addition, Coeur was able to conclude final negotiations with the key construction contractor during the second quarter, leading to an increase in expected 2024 development capital expenditures as certain costs that were originally planned for 2025 were paid during the second quarter. The Company has now paid $725 million of the total $730 million capital cost of the expansion.
Coeur has increased its planned exploration program at Wharf as the Company has identified opportunities to extend mine life at the Juno and North Foley deposits as well as at Kensington. 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.
