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.
Significant Developments During the Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021
COVID-19 response and impact on operations
During the nine months ended September 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 communities and employees, including quarantining, testing, ensuring physical distancing and providing additional protective equipment.

| 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 notes 2(b) and 2(c), 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 November 3, 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 September 30, 2021:
| Financial instrument | Carrying amount | |
| Term Loan | $ | 157,500 |
| Interest rate swap contracts | 343 | |
| 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 32% of the outstanding Term Loan balance as at September 30, 2021 with maturities 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.

| 2. | BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) |
| (b) | Interest rate benchmark reform - phase 2 amendments (continued) |
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 7). 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.
| (c) | Assets held for sale |
Non-current assets, or disposal groups comprising assets and liabilities, are classified as assets held for sale when it is highly probable that their carrying amounts will be recovered principally through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use. A non-current asset (or disposal group) is classified as held for sale when the following criteria are met: (i) the asset (or disposal group) is available for immediate sale in its present condition subject only to terms that are usual and customary for sales of such assets or disposal group; (ii) the appropriate level of management is committed to a plan to sell the asset (or disposal group); (iii) an active program to locate a buyer and complete the plan has been initiated; (iv) the asset (or disposal group) is actively marketed for sale at a price that is reasonable in relation to its current fair value; (v) the sale is expected to complete within one year from the date of classification, except under certain events and circumstances; and (vi) actions required to complete the plan to sell the asset (or disposal group) indicate that it is unlikely that significant changes to the plan will be made or that the plan will be withdrawn. Non-current assets (or disposal groups) shall cease to be classified as held for sale when the above criteria are no longer met.
Non-current assets (or disposal groups) classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of their carrying amounts and fair value less costs to sell. The Company recognizes an impairment loss for any initial or subsequent write-down of a non-current asset (or disposal group) classified as held for sale to fair value less costs to sell in profit or loss during the period of the write-down. The Company recognizes a gain for any subsequent increase in fair value less costs to sell of a non-current asset (or disposal group) to the extent of previously recognized impairment losses on the non-current asset (or disposal group). A non-current asset is not depleted or depreciated while it is classified as held for sale, or as part of a disposal group classified as held for sale.
| 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 6 in relation to the Royalty Portfolio, the significant judgments applied and areas of estimation uncertainty in the preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 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. | ASSETS HELD FOR SALE |
On July 29, 2021, the Company announced that it had entered into a definitive agreement to sell a portfolio of royalty interests and deferred payments (the "Royalty Portfolio") to EMX Royalty Corp. ("EMX") for total consideration of $100 million, subject to certain adjustments (the "Transaction"). The Transaction closed on October 21, 2021 (note 15). Accordingly, the assets within the Royalty Portfolio were classified as held for sale as of July 29, 2021 and presented separately within current assets in the consolidated statement of financial position as at September 30, 2021. The Royalty Portfolio comprises 16 net smelter return and net profit interest royalties in Turkey and the Americas, previously included in mineral properties not yet subject to depletion; and deferred consideration, arising from previous sales of certain mineral properties, previously included in exploration and evaluation assets and other non-current assets in the consolidated statements of financial position.
At June 30, 2021, prior to the classification of the assets as held for sale, the Company recognized an impairment loss of $22.3 million ($18.2 million, net of tax) on the Royalty Portfolio based on the difference between the carrying amount of the assets within the Royalty Portfolio, prior to the impairment loss, and the estimated net transaction price of $85.1 million (note 6). The Company did not recognize any further impairment loss on the Royalty Portfolio during the three months ended September 30, 2021.
At September 30, 2021, the Royalty Portfolio classified as held for sale was measured at the carrying amounts of the following underlying assets:
| September 30, 2021 | ||
| Mineral properties not yet subject to depletion | $ | 65,974 |
| Exploration and evaluation assets | 5,926 | |

| 6. | MINERAL PROPERTIES, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT (continued) |
| (1) | At September 30, 2021, plant and equipment includes right-of-use assets with a total carrying amount of $128.9 million (December 31, 2020 - $121.6 million). |
| (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 Transaction it entered into on July 29, 2021 (note 5). For the purposes of impairment assessment and measuring the impairment loss, all the assets within the Royalty Portfolio were grouped as one cash-generating unit. 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 Transaction. The total estimated consideration was comprised of $33 million in cash and $33 million in EMX common shares, receivable by the Company on closing, and $34 million in deferred consideration related to project development milestones for one of the underlying projects, subject to certain adjustments. 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 recognized and included within the exploration, evaluation and development properties reportable segment, $20.5 million was allocated to mineral properties not yet subject to depletion, and the remaining $1.8 million was allocated to exploration and evaluation assets.
| (3) | On July 29, 2021, the carrying amounts of the assets within the Royalty Portfolio were reclassified to assets held for sale pursuant to the Transaction that closed on October 21, 2021 (notes 5 and 15). |

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 September 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 September 30, 2021 or under the previous revolving credit facility as at December 31, 2020.

| 10. | 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 for cancellation up to 10,000,000 of its common shares through the facilities of the TSX, NASDAQ or other Canadian and United States marketplaces over a twelve-month period beginning April 21, 2021 and ending April 30, 2022. As at September 30, 2021, the Company has purchased a total of 8,800,700 of its outstanding common shares pursuant to the NCIB. All shares were canceled upon purchase.
During the three months ended September 30, 2021, the Company purchased 4,800,700 of its outstanding common shares pursuant to the NCIB at an average share price of $16.20 per share for total consideration of $77.8 million. The difference of $7.4 million between the total amount paid and the amount deducted from common shares of $70.4 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.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company purchased 8,800,700 of its outstanding common shares pursuant to the NCIB at an average share price of $16.82 per share for total consideration of $148.1 million. The difference of $19.0 million between the total amount paid and the amount deducted from common shares of $129.1 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.
| (b) | Share-based compensation |
Total share-based compensation, including all equity and cash-settled arrangements, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 has been recognized in the consolidated interim financial statements as follows:

| (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.
| 11. | DIVIDENDS |
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company paid cash dividends of $0.05 and $0.15 per common share, respectively, to equity holders of SSR Mining for total dividends of $10.7 million and $32.7 million, respectively.
Subsequent to September 30, 2021, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.05 per common share, payable on December 13, 2021 to holders of record at the close of business on November 15, 2021.

| 12. | 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 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:

| 13. | 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.
The levels in the fair value hierarchy into which the Company's financial assets and liabilities that are measured and recognized in the consolidated statements of financial position at fair value on a recurring basis were categorized as follows:
| Fair value at September 30, 2021 | ||||||||||||
| Level 1 (1) | Level 2 (2) | Level 3 (3) | Total | |||||||||
| Marketable securities | $ | 22,982 | $ | - | $ | - | $ | 22,982 | ||||

| $ | 26,748 | $ | 35,818 | $ | 9,748 | $ | 72,314 |
| (1) | At September 30, 2021, marketable securities include equity securities of publicly quoted companies, measured at fair value through other comprehensive income ("FVTOCI"), and publicly traded debt securities, measured at fair value through profit or loss ("FVTPL") (December 31, 2020 - equity securities of publicly quoted companies, measured at FVTOCI). Marketable securities are valued using a market approach based upon unadjusted quoted market prices. Debt securities with maturity dates that are more than twelve months after the reporting date are included in other non-current assets in the consolidated statement of financial position. |
| (2) | Trade receivables relating to sales of concentrate are included in Level 2 as the basis of valuation uses quoted commodity forward prices. 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 their fair values are not based on observable market data. At September 30, 2021, $8.5 million of deferred consideration measured at FVTPL are included in the Royalty Portfolio disposal group classified as held for sale (note 5). |
During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, no amounts were transferred between Levels.

| 15. | SUBSEQUENT EVENT |
On October 21, 2021 (the "Closing Date"), the Company completed the sale of the Royalty Portfolio classified as held for sale as at September 30, 2021 to EMX (note 5). Pursuant to the terms of the Transaction, the Company received total consideration of $99.5 million. The total consideration is comprised of $33 million in cash, $32.5 million in EMX common shares and $34 million in deferred consideration related to project development milestones for one of the underlying projects. As a result of the Transaction, the Company owns an approximate 12% equity interest in EMX as of the Closing Date.
The Company will recognize the difference between the net disposal proceeds, representing the fair value of each of the components of the consideration less the selling costs, and carrying amounts of the assets within the Royalty Portfolio immediately prior to the sale as a gain or loss on disposition during the three months ending December 31, 2021. As the carrying amounts of the assets within the Royalty Portfolio as at September 30, 2021 were based on the estimated net transaction price as of that date, the gain or loss on disposition to be recognized during the three months ending December 31, 2021 is estimated to be insignificant, and will be based on additional selling costs, and adjustments to the total consideration pursuant to the terms of the Transaction.
In connection with the Transaction, the Company entered into a credit agreement for an unsecured loan to EMX on the Closing Date with a principal amount of $7.8 million and a maturity date of December 31, 2022 (the "VTB Note"). The VTB Note will be recognized as a financial asset on the Closing Date and subsequently measured at amortized cost.
