Key Highlights
-
Highest quarterly financial results in nearly a decade - Revenue increased
49% and adjusted EBITDA1 more than doubled quarter-over-quarter. Operating cash flow was eight-times higher and now totals$81.4 million through the first nine months of the year. Free cash flow1 increased significantly to$56.5 million , leading to year-to-date positive free cash flow1 of$19.5 million -
Strong quarter-over-quarter production growth - Gold production increased
23% to 95,995 ounces driven by improved operational performance at Palmarejo, Rochester and Wharf, while silver production of 2.6 million ounces was58% higher largely due to positive results at Palmarejo -
Well-executed restart at Palmarejo following temporary suspension - Palmarejo generated strong operational and financial results after being temporarily suspended for approximately 45 days in the prior period due to a COVID-19-related government decree. Gold production nearly doubled while silver production was more than two-times higher quarter-over-quarter, helping to generate
$49.7 million and$44.7 million in operating and free cash flow1, respectively - Successfully commenced construction on schedule for Rochester expansion - The Company broke ground in early August on the Plan of Operations Amendment 11 (“POA 11”) expansion project at its Rochester mine. Coeur plans to file an updated technical report in December, which will provide a detailed economic and technical overview of the expansion project
-
Record quarterly results at Wharf - Wharf produced 33,440 ounces of gold, which generated
$39.1 million in operating cash flow and$38.6 million free cash flow1 during the third quarter - all new quarterly records since Coeur’s acquisition of Wharf in early 2015 for approximately$99.5 million . Cumulative operating and free cash flow1 since acquisition now totals$256.0 million and$232.4 million , respectively - Continued execution of the Company’s largest exploration program in its history2 - Building on the success from the first half of the year, approximately 20 drill rigs continue to operate across the Company, including at the new C-Horst discovery located in the northernmost portion of the Crown Block in southern Nevada. Results indicate potential for strong resource growth at Palmarejo, Rochester, Kensington, Silvertip and C-Horst, while infill drilling has demonstrated near-term upside potential for reserve growth at Palmarejo and Rochester
-
Bolstered balance sheet and financial flexibility - The Company reduced total debt3 by
$47.5 million , or14% , quarter-over-quarter while cash and cash equivalents increased9% to$77.1 million as of September 30, 2020
“Strong production growth and higher gold and silver prices combined to generate multi-year high financial results during the third quarter,” said Mitchell J. Krebs, President and Chief Executive Officer. “A strong rebound from Palmarejo and a record-breaking quarter at Wharf helped showcase the benefit of our balanced portfolio of North American-based precious metals assets. Quarterly revenue was the highest in nearly a decade, adjusted EBITDA1 more than doubled and free cash flow1 now totals
Mr. Krebs continued, “We achieved a major milestone by commencing construction on schedule on the POA 11 expansion project at Rochester and look forward to sharing the results of the updated technical report in December. In addition to strong operational execution at several sites, we significantly reduced debt while increasing cash, leaving us well-positioned as we head into major construction activities at Rochester next year. With strengthening operational performance, successful execution of our near-term organic growth opportunities and a sustained commitment to our exploration investments, we remain on-track to fundamentally reposition the Company and unlock meaningful long-term value for our stockholders.”

Rochester Expansion
Coeur commenced construction on the POA 11 expansion project on schedule in early August 2020, advancing early-stage earthworks and establishing infrastructure at site to support construction activities. The expansion project includes the construction of a new leach pad, a crushing facility equipped with two high-pressure grinding roll (“HPGR”) units, a Merrill-Crowe process plant, and related infrastructure to support the extension of Rochester’s mine life.
Together with SNC-Lavalin, Coeur’s engineering, procurement and project management contractor, the Company has completed over

Operational
-
Silver production increased modestly quarter-over-quarter to approximately 0.7 million ounces, while gold production was
25% higher and totaled 6,462 ounces -
Improved production was driven by the placement of 4.5 million tons during the quarter, a
21% increase compared to the prior period and80% higher than the third quarter of 2019. Just over 36,500 tons per day were processed through the upgraded crushing circuit, consistent with the prior period and142% higher year-over-year. Placement rates were supplemented by stacking roughly 1.2 million tons of run-of-mine material during the quarter - Upset conditions in the Merrill-Crowe process plant and residual impacts of dilution from stacking HPGR-crushed material on top of historical ore on the Stage IV leach pad earlier in the year resulted in lower-than-anticipated production during the quarter
- As a result of the upset conditions, approximately 0.1 million ounces of silver and 1,250 ounces of gold were held as work-in-process inventory at the end of the third quarter and are expected to be recovered by the end of the year
- Late in the third quarter, Coeur expanded the scope of its revised stacking plan by installing additional inter-lift liners to maximize the placement of HPGR-crushed ore on shallower portions of the Stage IV leach pad
Financial
-
Third quarter adjusted CAS1 for silver on a co-product basis increased
9% quarter-over-quarter to$14.98 per ounce, while adjusted CAS1 for gold on a co-product basis decreased22% to$1,148 per ounce, reflecting comparatively higher costs and increased gold production -
Third quarter capital expenditures totaled
$9.8 million compared to$5.8 million in the prior period, largely due to increased investment in POA 11 -
Free cash flow1 totaled
$(7.7) million in the third quarter, compared to$(11.4) million in the second quarter, primarily driven by improved operating cash flow and partially offset by higher capital expenditures
Exploration
-
Exploration investment for the third quarter totaled approximately
$1.3 million ($0.5 million expensed and$0.9 million capitalized), compared to approximately$2.2 million ($1.8 million expensed and$0.4 million capitalized) in the prior period - Following the success of prior drill programs, two core rigs continued directional drilling at East Rochester to test areas of potential mineralization under the Stage I and Stage II leach pads. A total of four new expansion core holes were drilled during the quarter (12 through the first nine months of 2020). The core rigs were then moved to complete geotechnical holes in the existing open pit
- One reverse circulation rig continued infill drilling within the existing open pit. A total of 15 infill holes and five expansion holes were drilled during the quarter
- Based on the results received to date, significant potential exists for additional reserve and resource growth in the existing open pit and at East Rochester. Additionally, target generation in the district highlighted priorities for future drilling north of East Rochester and East Packard as well as around the Lincoln Hill, Gold Ridge and Independence Hill zones located immediately west of Rochester
- Based on the drilling success at East Rochester, Coeur has extended the expansion program through the winter with one reverse circulation rig focused on testing the extension of the zone northwards towards the Stage IV leach pad
Other
- Mining remains an essential business in Nevada. The Company continues to maintain rigorous health and safety protocols aimed at limiting the exposure and transmission of COVID-19 at Rochester and in the surrounding communities
Guidance
- Full-year 2020 silver production is anticipated to be modestly lower at 3.1 - 3.7 million ounces (previously 3.5 - 4.5 million ounces) given greater-than-expected impacts from dilution, while gold production guidance remains consistent at 27,000 - 33,000 ounces (no change)
-
Given lower expected silver production, CAS1 for silver in 2020 are expected to be
$13.50 -$14.75 per ounce (previously$12.75 -$14.00 per ounce). Comparatively higher gold production is expected to drive CAS1 to$1,150 -$1,300 per ounce of gold (previously$1,250 -$1,400 per ounce) -
Capital expenditures are expected to remain relatively unchanged at approximately
$38 -$42 million (previously$38 -$43 million )

Operational
- Gold production in the third quarter totaled 26,797 ounces compared to 33,058 ounces in the prior period, reflecting the impact of several positive COVID-19 cases isolated to the underground mining workforce. The Company conducted comprehensive testing, contact tracing and sanitization efforts, helping to mitigate the threat of further transmission across the operation
-
Average gold grade decreased approximately
14% to 0.18 ounces per ton, largely due to the processing of additional development ore and surface stockpile material as a result of mine sequencing and COVID-19 contact tracing, respectively -
Jualin accounted for approximately
18% of Kensington’s third quarter production, increasing from approximately16% in the prior quarter. For the full year, Jualin is expected to account for approximately 15-20% of Kensington’s total production
Financial
-
Adjusted CAS1 totaled
$1,128 per ounce compared to$934 per ounce in the prior period, reflecting modestly higher costs and lower production -
Capital expenditures increased
36% quarter-over-quarter to$5.3 million , largely due to the completion of certain capital projects prior to the winter months -
Free cash flow1 totaled
$3.8 million during the third quarter, including cash outflow of approximately$5.1 million associated with Coeur’s prepayment agreement at Kensington. Excluding the effect of the prepayment, free cash flow1 totaled approximately$8.9 million in the third quarter
Exploration
-
Exploration investment increased
30% compared to the prior quarter to approximately$3.5 million (substantially all expensed) - Three core rigs, two surface and one underground, were active during the quarter and focused on resource expansion drilling. A total of 52 resource expansion holes were drilled during the quarter for a total of 45,138 feet (13,758 meters)
- The surface program accelerated to two helicopter-supported rigs drilling on the upper Raven, Big Lake and upper Johnson veins, while the underground program targeted the lower and mid levels of the Elmira vein
- Significant intervals of mineralized core were observed from the surface program at the upper Raven vein as well as at the recently discovered Jennifer vein located near the Raven vein. Drilling from the uppermost 2050 drift has also generated positive visual mineralized core, specifically at the Kensington, Eureka, upper Kensington Zone 30 and Northern Belle veins
- With surface drilling now complete, the three core rigs were moved underground and are anticipated to maintain a similar pace during the fourth quarter. Exploration activities are expected to continue focusing on resource expansion drilling at the Eureka, upper Kensington Zone 30 and Johnson veins, as well as infill drilling at the Elmira vein
Other
- Mining continues to be considered an essential business in Alaska. Rotational schedules remain extended from 14 days to 28 days in response to concerns related to COVID-19. All employees are required to quarantine for 7 days and undergo viral COVID-19 testing prior to starting their 28-day rotation
Guidance
- Production in 2020 is expected to be slightly lower at 122,500 - 130,000 ounces of gold (previously 125,000 - 135,000 ounces)
-
CAS1 in 2020 are expected to remain consistent at
$900 -$1,000 per ounce (no change) -
Given investments made through the first three quarters of 2020, full-year capital expenditures are anticipated to be modestly lower at
$22 -$27 million ($28 -$33 million )

Operational
-
Gold production increased
35% quarter-over-quarter driven by higher placement rates and improved grades over the past two quarters
Financial
-
Adjusted CAS1 on a by-product basis remained consistent quarter-over-quarter at
$804 per ounce -
Third quarter capital expenditures totaled
$0.5 million , modestly higher than the prior period -
Free cash flow1 of
$38.6 million was more than two-times higher quarter-over-quarter. Coeur has now generated cumulative free cash flow of more than double its original investment of approximately$99.5 million in February 2015
Exploration
-
Exploration investment in the third quarter totaled approximately
$0.5 million (substantially all expensed), compared to approximately$0.1 million (substantially all expensed) in the prior period. The exploration program is currently using one reverse circulation rig and has completed approximately 20,880 feet (6,364 meters) during the quarter
- Exploration activity focused on resource expansion drilling at Richmond Hill, which is located approximately four miles north-northeast of Wharf. Coeur has an exclusive option agreement with two subsidiaries of Barrick Gold Corporation to acquire the project that expires in September 2021
- Additionally, geologic mapping and geochemical sampling were successfully completed over the claims contained within Richmond Hill as well as outer zones that may be of interest to Coeur, with most assays pending
Other
- South Dakota’s public order mandating the closure of all public-facing businesses does not include Wharf. Coeur continues to follow rigorous health and safety protocols aimed at limiting the exposure and transmission of COVID-19 at Wharf and in the surrounding communities
Guidance
- Given strong operating results during the first three quarters of the year, gold production in 2020 is expected to be 85,000 - 95,000 ounces (previously 80,000 - 90,000 ounces)
-
As a result of higher production, CAS1 are expected to be
$875 -$925 per ounce (previously$950 -$1,000 per ounce) -
Full-year capital expenditures are expected to remain consistent at approximately

- Mining and operating activities were temporarily suspended at Silvertip on February 19, 2020 (unrelated to COVID-19)
Operational
- The internal pre-feasibility study to evaluate a potential expansion and restart was substantially completed during the third quarter. Results from the technical analysis and test work have been positive and have largely addressed the key performance challenges experienced prior to suspension
-
Based on the positive results to date, the Company has allocated an additional
$6.0 million to continue with engineering work, including detailed design of a potential mill expansion to further de-risk the project and enhance the economics of a potential restart - To strengthen confidence in the results of the pre-feasibility study, third-party technical reviews are expected to be conducted during the fourth quarter
Financial
-
Temporary suspension costs related to the ramp-down of active mining and processing activities totaled
$0.8 million in the third quarter compared to$1.7 million in the prior period -
Ongoing carrying costs in the third quarter totaled
$3.9 million , compared to$5.2 million in the prior period. Coeur expects ongoing quarterly carrying costs to remain at similar levels during the suspension -
Capital expenditures during the third quarter increased
6% to approximately$2.1 million , reflecting additional work completed on the pre-feasibility study -
Free cash flow1 for the quarter totaled
$(10.3) million
Exploration
-
Exploration investment in the third quarter totaled approximately
$3.9 million (substantially all expensed), compared to approximately$2.9 million (substantially all expensed) in the prior period - The focus throughout 2020 has been on near-mine resource expansion and larger step-out (“scout”) drilling to test the edges of the mineralized system. Results demonstrate the potential for resource growth with over two miles (3.5 kilometers) of north-south strike length, more than triple the previous resource strike length
- The Company had up to six active drill rigs during the period, ending with five rigs at quarter end. A total of 83,047 feet (25,313 meters) was drilled during the quarter in five zones, including the last phases of scout drilling, completing the initial 2020 exploration program ahead of schedule and under budget
- Results from resource expansion drilling continue to be encouraging, specifically east and south of the Discovery zone and at the new Tour Ridge and Camp Creek zones, which are located in the south and southwest extensions of the Silvertip area, respectively. Additionally, the Silvertip resource zones continue to remain open to the south as scout drilling tested the southern limits of mineralization. New core drilling at the Tour Ridge, Discovery South and Camp Creek zones have all returned significant sulfide mineralization, suggesting the ore bodies are increasing in thickness to the south
-
Coeur has allocated approximately
$1.0 million of additional capital for underground development in the fourth quarter to bolster exploration efforts and help facilitate follow-up drilling of encouraging results received during the first nine months of the year - As winter approaches, the Company plans to transition its drill rigs to lower-elevation drill pads and continue its near-mine resource expansion program during the fourth quarter, ramping down to three active rigs by early November
Other
- Mining continues to be considered an essential business in British Columbia. Rotational schedules remain at 14 days (previously extended to 21 days in early 2020). The Company continues to maintain rigorous health and safety protocols at Silvertip aimed at limiting the exposure and transmission of COVID-19
Guidance
-
With additional capital allocated to underground development and ongoing work to further de-risk Silvertip, capital expenditures are expected to be modestly higher at approximately
$10 -$12 million (previously$8 -$10 million ) in 2020
Exploration
During the third quarter, the Company drilled 256,882 feet (78,299 meters) at a total investment of approximately
In addition to the Company’s mine sites, up to three drill rigs were active at the Crown exploration property in southern Nevada during the third quarter. The Company drilled a total of 23,465 feet (7,152 meters) in the quarter, compared to 23,680 feet (7,218 meters) in the prior period. Two reverse circulation rigs and one core rig were active during the period.
One of the reverse circulation rigs initially began at Sterling, before it was moved to Wharf to focus on expansion drilling at Richmond Hill early in the quarter, while the other rig remained at C-Horst. The core rig focused on drilling for metallurgical and engineering studies, specifically testing the C-Horst, Daisy and Secret Pass deposits. Drilling from the core rig is expected to be completed during the fourth quarter.
The drilling at C-Horst continues to look encouraging with 36 holes now completed from four permitted drill pads. An amended notice was approved in the beginning of October, providing Coeur the opportunity to drill from six additional platforms. If successful, these platforms have the potential to continue expanding mineralization at C-Horst, which remains open south and southwest of Coeur’s initial discovery.
For the remainder of the year, Coeur plans to utilize three rigs, two reverse circulation and one core, to drill within its recently received 300-acre disturbance permit at Crown as well as from the newly permitted drill platforms at C-Horst.
The Company expects to invest

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 excluding 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, 2019 and our Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2020.
Notes
- EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, free cash flow, adjusted net income (loss), operating cash flow excluding changes in working capital and adjusted costs applicable to sales per ounce (gold and silver) or pound (lead and zinc) 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 and gold production royalty payments. Please see table in Appendix for the calculation of consolidated free cash flow.
