Coeur Mining, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The interim condensed consolidated financial statements of Coeur Mining, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Coeur” or the “Company”) are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments and disclosures necessary for the fair presentation of these interim statements have been included. The results reported in these interim statements may not be indicative of the results which will be reported for the year ending December 31, 2022. The condensed consolidated December 31, 2021 balance sheet data was derived from audited consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 (the “2021 10-K”).

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Significant Accounting Policies
Please see Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies contained in the 2021 10-K.
Use of Estimates
The Company's Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“U.S. GAAP”). The preparation of the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the Consolidated Financial Statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The more significant areas requiring the use of management estimates and assumptions relate to metal prices and mineral reserves that are the basis for future cash flow estimates utilized in impairment calculations and units-of production amortization calculations, environmental, reclamation and closure obligations, estimates of recoverable silver and gold in leach pad inventories, estimates of fair value for certain reporting units and asset impairments, valuation allowances for deferred tax assets, and the fair value and accounting treatment of financial instruments, equity securities, asset acquisitions, the allocation of fair value to assets and liabilities assumed in connection with business combinations, and derivative instruments. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Accordingly, actual results will differ from the amounts estimated in these financial statements.
Revenue Recognition
The Company’s gold stream agreement with a subsidiary of Franco-Nevada Corporation (“Franco-Nevada”) provided for a $22.0 million deposit paid by Franco-Nevada in exchange for the right and obligation, commencing in 2016, to purchase 50% of a portion of Palmarejo gold production at the lesser of $800 or market price per ounce. Because there is no minimum obligation associated with the deposit, it is not considered financing, and each shipment is considered to be a separate performance obligation. The streaming agreement represents a contract liability under ASC 606, which requires the Company to ratably recognize a portion of the deposit as revenue for each gold ounce delivered to Franco-Nevada. The remaining unamortized balance is included in Accrued liabilities and other and Other long-term liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. See Note 17 -- Commitments and Contingencies for additional detail.
The following table presents a roll forward of the Franco-Nevada contract liability balance:

Revenue Recognized(93)(255)(408)(601)
Closing Balance$7,742 $8,775 $7,742 $8,775 
In December 2021, the Company received a $15.0 million prepayment (the “December 2021 Prepayment”) for deliveries of gold concentrate from the Kensington mine pursuant to the Amended Sales Contract (as defined in Note 17). In March 2022, the Company exercised an option to receive a $10.0 million prepayment (the “March 2022 Prepayment). The Amended Sales Contract represents a contract liability under ASC 606, which requires the Company to recognize ratably a portion of the deposit as revenue for each gold ounce delivered to the customer. The remaining contract liability is included in Accrued liabilities and other on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. See Note 17 -- Commitments and Contingencies for additional detail.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In March 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-01, “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Fair Value Hedging—Portfolio Layer Method” which is intended to make amendments to the fair value hedge accounting previously issued in ASU 2017-12 “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities”. The new standard is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2022. The standard introduced the portfolio layer method allowing multiple hedged layers of a single closed portfolio when applying fair value hedge accounting. The Company plans to adopt the new derivatives and hedging standards effective January 1, 2023 and does not expect the new derivatives and hedging standard to have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Coeur reports the carrying value of metal and leach pad inventory at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost being determined using a weighted average cost method. At the end of the first and second quarter of 2022, the cost of metal and leach pad inventory at Rochester exceeded its net realizable value which resulted in a non-cash write down for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 of $10.4 million ($9.2 million was recognized in Costs Applicable to Sales and $1.2 million in Amortization) and $19.0 million ($16.8 million was recognized in Cost Applicable to Sales and $2.2 million in Amortization), respectively.

    During the second quarter of 2022, the Company reported estimated income and mining tax expense of approximately $11.5 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 17.4%. This compares to income tax expense of $15.3 million for an effective tax rate of 32.3% during the second quarter of 2021. The comparability of the Company’s income and mining tax (expense) benefit and effective tax rate for the reported periods was impacted by multiple factors, primarily: (i) the sale of non-core assets; (ii) the non-recognition of tax assets; (iii) variations in our income before income taxes; (iv) geographic distribution of that income; (v) mining taxes; (vi) foreign exchange rates; (vii) the impact of uncertain tax positions; and (viii) percentage depletion. Therefore, the effective tax rate will fluctuate, sometimes significantly, period to period.
A valuation allowance is provided for deferred tax assets for which it is more likely than not that the related tax benefits will not be realized. The Company analyzes its deferred tax assets and, if it is determined that the Company will not realize all or a portion of its deferred tax assets, it will record or increase a valuation allowance. Conversely, if it is determined that the Company ultimately will be more likely than not able to realize all or a portion of the related benefits for which a valuation allowance has been provided, all or a portion of the related valuation allowance will be reduced. There are a number

Coeur Mining, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
of factors that impact the Company’s ability to realize its deferred tax assets. For additional information, please see the section titled “Risk Factors” in the 2021 10-K.
The Company or one of its subsidiaries files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, and various state and foreign jurisdictions. The statute of limitations remains open from 2018 forward for the U.S. federal jurisdiction and from 2016 forward for certain other foreign jurisdictions. As a result of statutes of limitation that will begin to expire within the next twelve months in various jurisdictions and possible settlements of audit-related issues with taxing authorities in various jurisdictions with respect to which none of the issues are individually significant, the Company believes that it is reasonably possible that the total amount of its net unrecognized income tax benefits will decrease by less than $0.1 million in the next twelve months.
    At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had $0.0 million and $0.3 million of total gross unrecognized tax benefits, respectively, that, if recognized, would positively impact the Company’s effective income tax rate. The Company’s continuing practice is to recognize potential interest and/or penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as part of its income tax expense. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the amount of accrued income-tax-related interest and penalties was $0.0 million and $0.4 million, respectively.

NOTE 11 – STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
    The Company has stock incentive plans for executives, directors and eligible employees. Stock awards include performance shares, restricted stock and stock options. Stock-based compensation expense in the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 was $2.3 million and $4.6 million, respectively, compared to $3.3 million and $7.5 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2021. At June 30, 2022, there was $11.8 million of unrecognized stock-based compensation cost which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average remaining vesting period of 1.7 years.

Accounting standards establish a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1), secondary priority to quoted prices in inactive markets or observable inputs (Level 2), and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3).

The Company’s investments in equity securities are recorded at fair market value in the financial statements based primarily on quoted market prices. Such instruments are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. The Company’s common share purchase warrants received as consideration in the La Preciosa project sale are valued using the pricing model with inputs derived from observable market data, including quoted market prices and quoted interest curve rates. The model inputs can generally be verified and do not involve significant management judgment. Such instruments are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
The Company’s gold forward contracts are valued using pricing models with inputs derived from observable market data, including forward market prices, yield curves, credit spreads. The Company’s provisional metal sales contracts include concentrate and certain doré sales contracts that are valued using pricing models with inputs derived from observable market data, including forward market prices.
As further discussed in Note 19 — Dispositions, the consideration for the sale of La Preciosa project included two royalties, a 1.25% net smelter returns royalty on properties covering the Gloria and Abundancia areas of the La Preciosa project and a 2.00% gross value royalty on all areas of the La Preciosa project other than the Gloria and Abundancia areas, and contingent consideration of $0.25 per silver equivalent ounce (adjusted for inflation) on any new mineral reserves discovered and declared outside of the current resources area at the La Preciosa project, up to a maximum payment of $50.0 million. The fair value of the royalties and the contingent consideration assets were $11.2 million and $1.2 million, respectively, valued as of the date of closing of the transaction and are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis. The fair value of the royalties and the contingent consideration were valued using Monte Carlo simulation models. The model inputs include significant unobservable inputs and involve significant management judgment. The significant unobservable inputs included assumptions related to metal prices which assumed silver prices ranging from $22 to $25 per ounce and gold prices ranging from $1,700 to $1,930 per ounce as well as volatility assumptions for silver and gold prices (33.5% and 19.0%, respectively), and an assumed weighted average cost of capital of 15.5%. Such instruments are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
No assets or liabilities were transferred between fair value levels in the six months ended June 30, 2022.
The following tables present the changes in the fair value of the Company's Level 3 financial assets and liabilities in the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.

The fair value of the 2029 Senior Notes was estimated using quoted market prices. The fair value of the RCF approximates book value as the liability is secured, has a variable interest rate, and lacks significant credit concerns.
Also included in the consideration for the sale of La Preciosa project was a promissory note payable to the Company that matures in March 2023 and deferred cash consideration payable on the first anniversary of initial production from any portion of the La Preciosa project. These assets were valued using the pricing model with inputs derived from observable market data, including synthetic credit rating and quoted discount rate. The model inputs can generally be verified and do not involve significant management judgment. Such instruments are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

NOTE 13 – DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS & HEDGING ACTIVITIES

The Company is exposed to various market risks, including the effect of changes in metal prices, foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates, and uses derivatives to manage financial exposures that occur in the normal course of business. The Company does not hold or issue derivatives for trading or speculative purposes.
The Company may elect to designate certain derivatives as hedging instruments under U.S. GAAP. The Company formally documents all relationships between designated hedging instruments and hedged items as well as its risk management
19

Coeur Mining, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
objectives and strategies for undertaking hedge transactions. This process includes linking all derivatives designated as hedges to either recognized assets or liabilities or forecasted transactions and assessing, both at inception and on an ongoing basis, the effectiveness of the hedging relationships.
Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments
Provisional Metal Sales
The Company enters into sales contracts with third-party smelters, refiners and off-take customers which, in some cases, provide for a provisional payment based upon preliminary assays and quoted metal prices. The provisionally priced sales contracts contain an embedded derivative that is required to be separated from the host contract for accounting purposes. The host contract is the receivable recorded at the forward price at the time of sale. The embedded derivatives do not qualify for hedge accounting and are marked to market through earnings each period until final settlement.
Zero Cost Collars
To protect the Company’s exposure to fluctuations in metal prices the Company entered into Asian (or average value) put and call option contracts in net-zero-cost collar arrangements. The contracts were net cash settled monthly and, if the price of gold at the time of expiration is between the put and call prices, would expire at no cost to the Company. If the price of gold at the time of expiration was lower than the put prices or higher than the call prices, it would result in a realized gain or loss, respectively. The Company elected to designate these instruments as cash flow hedges of forecasted transactions at their inception. In the first quarter of 2022, the Company voluntarily de-designated hedge accounting for the zero cost collars and subsequently terminated the arrangements. The cost to terminate the zero cost collars was $7.7 million, of which $3.1 million was recognized in earnings and the remaining $4.6 million, which represents the fair value of the zero cost collars on the date of de-designation, was retained in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“AOCI”) and will be recognized in earnings as the forecasted transactions occur. As of June 30, 2022, there was $2.8 million remaining to be recognized in earnings over the next six months.
At June 30, 2022, the Company had the following derivative instruments that settle as follows:

Derivatives Designated as Cash Flow Hedging Strategies
To protect the Company’s exposure to fluctuations in metal prices the Company enters into forward contracts. The contracts are net settled monthly and if the actual price of gold at the time of expiration is lower than the fixed price or higher
20

Coeur Mining, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
than the fixed prices, it would result in a realized gain or loss, respectively. The Company has elected to designate these instruments as cash flow hedges of forecasted transactions at their inception.
At June 30, 2022, the Company had the following derivative cash flow hedge instruments that settle as follows:

Gold forwards
Average gold fixed price per ounce$1,965 $1,982 
Notional ounces108,500 112,500 
The effective portions of cash flow hedges are recorded in AOCI until the hedged item is recognized in earnings. Deferred gains and losses associated with cash flow hedges of metal sales revenue are recognized as a component of Revenue in the same period as the related sale is recognized.
At inception, the Company performed an assessment of the forecasted transactions and the hedging instruments and determined that the hedging relationships are considered perfectly effective. Future assessments are performed to verify that critical terms of the hedging instruments and the forecasted transactions continue to match, and the forecasted transactions remain probable, as well as an assessment of any adverse developments regarding the risk of the counterparties defaulting on their commitments. There have been no such changes in critical terms or adverse developments.
As of June 30, 2022, the Company had $29.3 million of net after-tax gain in AOCI related to gains from cash flow hedge transactions, of which $23.8 million of net after-tax gains is expected to be recognized in its Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income (Loss) during the next 12 months. Actual amounts ultimately reclassified to net income are dependent on the price of gold for metal contracts.

Credit Risk
The credit risk exposure related to any derivative instrument is limited to the unrealized gains, if any, on outstanding contracts based on current market prices. To reduce counter-party credit exposure, the Company enters into contracts with institutions management deems credit-worthy and limits credit exposure to each institution. The Company does not anticipate non-performance by any of its counterparties.

NOTE 15 – NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE
Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of the Company’s common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share reflects the potential dilution that would occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, there were 1,991,864 and 992,382 common stock equivalents, respectively, related to equity-based awards that were not included in the diluted earnings per share calculation as the shares would be antidilutive. Similarly, 1,553,030 and 1,558,030 common stock equivalents were excluded in the diluted earnings per share calculation for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively.

NOTE 17 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Mexico Litigation Matters
As of June 30, 2022, $26.0 million in principal amount is due from the Mexican government associated with VAT that was paid under Coeur Mexicana, S.A. de C.V.’s (“Coeur Mexicana’s”) prior royalty agreement with a subsidiary of Franco-Nevada Corporation, which was terminated in 2016. Coeur Mexicana applied for and initially received VAT refunds associated with the royalty payments in the normal course; however, in 2011 the Mexican tax authorities began denying Coeur Mexicana’s VAT refunds based on the argument that VAT was not legally due on the royalty payments. Accordingly, Coeur Mexicana began to request refunds of the VAT as undue payments, which the Mexican tax authorities also denied. The Company has since been engaged in ongoing efforts to recover the VAT from the Mexican government (including through litigation and potential arbitration as well as refiling VAT refund requests). Despite a favorable ruling from Mexican tax courts in this matter in 2018, litigation has continued at the administrative, appeals court and supreme court levels, most of which has been determined unfavorably to Coeur based on interpretations of applicable law and prior court decisions which the Company and its counsel believe are contrary to legal precedent, conflicting and erroneous. While the Company believes that it remains legally entitled to be refunded the full amount of the VAT receivable and intends to rigorously continue its VAT recovery efforts, based on the continued failure to recover the VAT receivable and recent unfavorable Mexican court decisions, the Company determined to write down the carrying value of the VAT receivable at September 30, 2021. In March 2022, Coeur Mexicana filed an updated notice of intent to initiate an arbitration proceeding under Chapter 11 of the North American Free Trade Agreement, or NAFTA, in connection with this dispute and may elect to formally proceed with arbitration under NAFTA. Outcomes in NAFTA arbitration and the process for recovering funds even if there is a successful outcome in NAFTA arbitration can be lengthy and unpredictable.
In addition, ongoing litigation with the Mexican government associated with enforcement of water rights in Mexico, if unsuccessful, may impact Coeur Mexicana’s ability to access new sources of water to provide sufficient supply for its operations at Palmarejo and, if material, may have a material adverse impact on the Company’s operations and financial results.
Palmarejo Gold Stream
Coeur Mexicana sells 50% of Palmarejo gold production (excluding production from certain properties acquired in 2015) to a subsidiary of Franco-Nevada Corporation (“Franco-Nevada”) under a gold stream agreement for the lesser of $800 or spot price per ounce. In 2016, Coeur Mexicana received a $22.0 million deposit toward future deliveries under the gold stream agreement. In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, although Coeur Mexicana has satisfied its contractual obligation to repay the deposit to Franco-Nevada, the deposit is accounted for as deferred revenue and is recognized as revenue on a units-of-production basis as ounces are sold to Franco-Nevada. At June 30, 2022 the remaining unamortized balance was $7.7 million, which is included in Accrued liabilities and other and Other long-term liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.
Kensington Prepayment
In June 2019, Coeur amended its existing sales and purchase contract with a metal sales counterparty for gold concentrate from its Kensington mine (the “Amended Sales Contract”). From time to time thereafter, the Amended Sales Contract has been further amended to allow for additional prepayments, including in June 2021, to provide options for Coeur to receive up to two additional prepayments of up to $15.0 million each. In June 2021 and December 2021, the Company exercised these options and received the $15.0 million June 2021 Prepayment and the $15.0 million December 2021 Prepayment. The June 2021 Prepayment was paid back in full before the December 2021 Prepayment was received. In March 2022, the Amended Sales Contract was further amended to allow for an additional $10.0 million prepayment. The additional $10.0 million prepayment was made in March 2022 (the “March 2022 Prepayment”). The Amended Sales Contract was further amended in June 2022 to consolidate the remaining deliveries of $15.0 million and $10.0 million under the December 2021 Prepayment and March 2022 Prepayment (the “June 2022 Consolidated Prepayment”), to extend the repayment period for the June 2022 Consolidated Prepayment, and to provide for future prepayments of up to $25.0 million on a semi-annual basis

Coeur Mining, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
through the end of 2024, provided all prior outstanding prepayment amounts are paid before such future prepayments are made. The remaining deliveries of the June 2022 Consolidated Prepayment are recognized as a deferred revenue liability and are presented in Accrued liabilities and other on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Under the relevant terms of the Amended Sales Contract, Coeur maintains its exposure to the price of gold and expects to recognize the remaining value of the accrued liability by December 2022.
POA 11 Expansion Project
As of June 30, 2022, the total estimated project capital cost remained approximately $600 million. With the commencement of structural, mechanical, piping, electrical and instrumentation construction work, completion of final major high-voltage electrical contracts and initial commitments for the pre-screen addition to the expanded crusher circuit, the Company has committed approximately $523 million and incurred $350 million of the total estimated project cost through June 30, 2022.
The expansion consists of three major components: (i) a new 300-million-ton leach pad, for which civil work is essentially complete and piping work is near completion; (ii) a Merrill-Crowe process plant with construction completion scheduled for the first half of 2023; and (iii) a new three-stage crushing circuit with construction completion scheduled for mid-2023. These scheduled construction completion dates for the project remain unchanged.
Construction of the Merrill-Crowe process plant ramped up during the second quarter, including completion of concrete work, continuation of equipment setting, and the commencement of building and process plant steel pipe rack erection, as well as piping and cable tray installation.
Work on the crusher corridor included (i) continued civil construction in the primary crusher area, (ii) the completion of concrete work, start of steel construction, and setting of conveyor and equipment in the secondary crusher area, (iii) continued advancement of concrete work and start of steel erection in the secondary stock pile reclaim area, (iv) completion of concrete in the tertiary crusher area, and (v) continuation of concrete in the tertiary reclaim and final product load-out areas. Deliveries of equipment and materials for the project continue to support the overall construction schedule.
The Company also recently advanced detailed engineering on the pre-screens. Equipment procurement and construction contract development is well underway as Coeur continues working to align construction of the pre-screens with the completion of the new crusher. Final cost estimates related to pre-screens are expected in the third quarter.
The Company began installation of pre-screens on the existing crusher corridor on June 23 and commenced commissioning on July 22. Ramp-up of the pilot system as well as optimization of the product size placed under leach is scheduled to take place during the month of August. The experience and knowledge gained from utilizing pre-screens is expected to facilitate the integration of pre-screen technology into the new crusher system flowsheet for POA 11.
Other Commitments and Contingencies
As part of its ongoing business and operations, the Company and its affiliates are required to provide surety bonds, bank letters of credit, bank guarantees and, in some cases, cash as financial support for various purposes, including environmental remediation, reclamation, collateral for gold hedges and other general corporate purposes. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had surety bonds totaling $315.0 million and $315.1 million, respectively, in place as financial support for future reclamation and closure costs. The obligations associated with these instruments are generally related to performance requirements that the Company addresses through its ongoing operations and from time-to-time, the Company may be required to post collateral, including cash or letters of credit which reduce availability under its revolving credit facility, to support these instruments. As the specific requirements are met, the beneficiary of the associated instrument cancels and/or returns the instrument to the issuing entity. Certain of these instruments are associated with operating sites with long-lived assets and will remain outstanding until closure. The Company believes it is in compliance with all applicable bonding obligations and will be able to satisfy future bonding requirements through existing or alternative means, as they arise.

The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis (“MD&A”) provides information that management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of the consolidated financial condition and results of operations of Coeur Mining, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively the “Company”, “our”, or “we”). We use certain non-GAAP financial performance measures in our MD&A. For a detailed description of these measures, please see “Non-GAAP Financial Performance Measures” at the end of this Item. We provide Costs applicable to sales (“CAS”) allocation, referred to as the co-product method, based on revenue contribution for Palmarejo, Rochester and Silvertip and based on the primary metal, referred to as the by-product method, for Wharf. Revenue from secondary metal, such as silver at Wharf, is treated as a cost credit.
Overview
We are primarily a gold and silver producer with assets located in the United States, Canada and Mexico     
Second Quarter Highlights
For the quarter, Coeur reported revenue of $204.1 million and cash flow from operating activities of $22.6 million. We reported GAAP net loss of $77.4 million, or $0.28 per diluted share. On an adjusted basis1, the Company reported EBITDA of $43.3 million and net loss of $13.1 million or $0.05 per diluted share. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, Coeur reported revenue of $392.5 million and cash flow from operating activities of $16.2 million. We reported GAAP net loss of $69.8 million, or $0.26 per diluted share. On an adjusted basis1, the Company reported EBITDA of $77.3 million and net loss of $26.9 million or $0.10 per diluted share.
Reaffirming full-year gold and silver production guidance – Increased gold and silver production during the quarter remains in-line with the Company’s expectations, leading Coeur to reaffirm consolidated and site level production guidance for 2022
Strong quarterly production increases at Kensington, Wharf and Rochester – Kensington’s gold production increased by 23% versus the first quarter, driven by an all-time quarterly record mill throughput. Wharf’s gold production increased by 15% while Rochester’s silver and gold production increased by 5% and 37%, respectively
Full-year cost guidance updated – The Company has updated its full-year site level cost guidance to reflect inflationary pressures. Additionally, Coeur has elected to increase its planned exploration investment by approximately $11 million in 2022 due to positive drilling results at the Kensington, Palmarejo and Silvertip assets
Rochester expansion project remains on-track – The ongoing expansion at the Rochester silver and gold operation in Nevada remains on-track for completion in mid-2023. The total estimated project capital remains approximately $600 million as of June 30, 2022. Coeur has committed approximately $523 million of the project capital and has incurred roughly $350 million towards the expansion
Strategic sale of Victoria Gold shares – Coeur announced the sale of 5 million shares of Victoria Gold Corporation (“Victoria Gold”) stock for net cash proceeds of approximately $40 million, which were received on July 5, 2022
Appointment of Jeane Hull to Board of Directors – Consistent with the Company’s commitment to Board refreshment and best-in-class corporate governance, Jeane Hull has been appointed to Coeur’s Board of Directors

Consolidated Financial Results
Three Months Ended June 30, 2022 compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2022
Revenue
We sold 84,786 gold ounces and 2.5 million silver ounces, compared to 75,211 gold ounces and 2.5 million silver ounces. Revenue increased by $15.7 million, or 8%, as a result of a 13% and 4% increase in gold and silver ounces sold, respectively, partially offset by a 6% decrease in average realized silver prices. The increase in gold and silver ounces sold was primarily due to higher production at Rochester, Kensington and Wharf. Gold and silver represented 72% and 28% of second quarter of 2022 sales revenue, respectively. This compares to gold and silver represented 69% and 31% of first quarter of 2022 sales revenue, respectively.

Costs Applicable to Sales
Costs applicable to sales increased $17.4 million, or 13%, primarily due to higher gold and silver ounces sold and higher operating costs primarily due to inflationary pressures relating to consumable costs, most notably higher diesel prices. For a complete discussion of costs applicable to sales, see Results of Operations below.

Amortization
Amortization increased $1.5 million, or 6%, primarily due to higher gold and silver and ounces sold.
Expenses
General and administrative expenses decreased $1.0 million, or 10%, primarily due to lower compensation and outside service costs.
Exploration expense decreased $0.1 million, or 3% driven by lower spending at Rochester and Canadian exploration investment incentives earned at Silvertip.
Pre-development, reclamation, and other expenses decreased $2.2 million, or 20%, stemming from lower costs incurred in connection with the Company’s COVID-19 health and safety protocols, lower ongoing carrying costs at Silvertip and lower operating costs at non-core asset locations.

Fair value adjustments, net, decreased to a loss of $62.8 million compared to a gain of $10.6 million as a result of a decrease in the value of the Company’s equity investments. For additional details on the Company’s equity investments see Note 6 -- Investments.
Interest expense (net of capitalized interest of $2.9 million) increased to $5.2 million from $4.6 million due to higher interest paid under the RCF and finance lease obligations, and lower capitalized interest.
Other, net decreased to a gain of $0.3 million compared to a gain of $1.7 million primarily attributable to the $1.5 million gain from the sale of the La Preciosa project in the first quarter of 2022.
Income and Mining Taxes
During the second quarter of 2022, income and mining tax expense of approximately $11.5 million resulted in an effective tax rate of 17.4% for 2022. This compares to income tax expense of $1.7 million for an effective tax rate of 18.1% for the first quarter of 2022. The comparability of the Company’s income and mining tax (expense) benefit and effective tax rate for the reported periods was impacted by multiple factors, primarily: (i) variations in our income before income taxes; (ii) geographic distribution of that income; (iii) mining taxes; (iv) foreign exchange rates; (v) the impact of uncertain tax positions; (vi) percentage depletion; (vii) the sale of non-core assets; and (viii) the non-recognition of tax assets. Therefore, the effective tax rate will fluctuate, sometimes significantly, period to period.

A valuation allowance is provided for deferred tax assets for which it is more likely than not that the related tax benefits will not be realized. The Company analyzes its deferred tax assets and, if it is determined that the Company will not realize all or a portion of its deferred tax assets, it will record or increase a valuation allowance. Conversely, if it is determined that the Company will ultimately be more likely than not able to realize all or a portion of the related benefits for which a valuation allowance has been provided, all or a portion of the related valuation allowance will be reduced. There are a number of factors that impact the Company’s ability to realize its deferred tax assets. For additional information, please see “Item 1A - Risk Factors” in the 2021 10-K.
Net Income (Loss)
Net loss was $77.4 million, or $0.28 per diluted share, compared to net income of $7.7 million, or $0.03 per diluted share. The decrease in net income was driven by a 6% decrease in average realized silver prices, higher operating costs, unfavorable changes of $73.4 million and $9.8 million in the fair value of the Company’s equity investments and income tax expense, respectively, partially offset by a 13% and 4% increase in gold and silver ounces sold, respectively. Adjusted net loss was $13.1 million, or $0.05 per diluted share, compared to an adjusted net loss of $13.8 million, or $0.05 per share (see “Non-GAAP Financial Performance Measures”).
Six Months Ended June 30, 2022 compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2021
Revenue
We sold 159,997 gold ounces and 5.0 million silver ounces, compared to 171,613 gold ounces and 5.0 million silver ounces. Revenue decreased by $24.4 million, or 6%, as a result of a 7% decrease in gold ounces sold and an 12% decrease in average realized silver prices, partially offset by a 4% increase in average realized gold prices. The decrease in gold ounces sold was primarily due to lower grades at Kensington. Gold and silver accounted for 70% and 30% of 2022 sales revenue, respectively. This compares to gold and silver accounting for 68% and 32% of 2021 sales revenue, respectively.

Metal sales$392,527 $416,975 $(24,448)(6)%
Costs Applicable to Sales
Costs applicable to sales increased $43.2 million, or 18%, primarily due to higher operating costs partially due to inflationary pressures related to consumables, most notably higher diesel prices, and employee-related costs and increased maintenance costs, lower of cost or net realizable value (“LCM”) adjustments at Rochester, and the $6.6 million favorable impact from foreign currency hedges in the comparable period of 2021. For a complete discussion of costs applicable to sales, see Results of Operations below.
Amortization
Amortization decreased $7.5 million, or 12%, primarily due to lower gold ounces sold and longer assumed mine life based on year-end mineral reserve growth.
Expenses
General and administrative expenses decreased $2.5 million, or 11%, primarily due to lower compensation costs.

During the first half of 2021, the Company incurred a $9.2 million loss in connection with the tender and redemption of the 5.875% Senior Notes due 2024 (the “2024 Senior Notes”) concurrent with the completed offering of the 2029 Senior Notes.
Fair value adjustments, net, decreased to a loss of $52.2 million compared to a gain of $33.4 million as a result of an decrease in the value of the Company’s equity investments. For additional details on the Company’s equity investments see Note 6 -- Investments.
Interest expense (net of capitalized interest of $6.0 million) decreased to $9.7 million from $10.0 million due to higher capitalized interest associated with the POA 11 project at Rochester, partially offset by higher interest paid under the 2029 Senior Notes compared to the 2024 Senior Notes, and higher interest paid under the RCF and finance lease obligations.
Other, net decreased to a gain of $2.1 million compared to $4.3 million due to lower gains on the sale of assets.
Income and Mining Taxes
During the first half of 2022, income and mining tax expense of approximately $13.2 million resulted in an effective tax rate of 23.3% for 2022. This compares to income tax expense of $28.1 million for an effective tax rate of 45.1% for 2021. The comparability of the Company’s income and mining tax (expense) benefit and effective tax rate for the reported periods was impacted by multiple factors, primarily: (i) the sale of non-core assets; (ii) the non-recognition of tax assets; (iii) variations in our income before income taxes; (iv) geographic distribution of that income; (v) mining taxes; (vi) foreign exchange rates; (vii) the impact of uncertain tax positions; and (viii) percentage depletion.

Net Income (Loss)
Net loss was $69.8 million, or $0.26 per diluted share, compared to net income of $34.2 million, or $0.14 per diluted share. The decrease in net income was driven by unfavorable changes in the fair value of the Company’s equity investments, higher operating costs, a 7% decrease in gold ounces sold and an 12% decrease in average realized silver prices, partially offset by a 4% increase in average realized gold prices, a $9.2 million loss on debt extinguishment in the comparable period in 2021 and lower income and mining taxes. Adjusted net loss was $26.9 million, or $0.10 per diluted share, compared to adjusted net income of $13.1 million, or $0.05 per diluted share (see “Non-GAAP Financial Performance Measures”).
2022 Guidance
Production during the second quarter was in-line with Coeur’s expectations, leading the Company to reaffirm 2022 production guidance. Updated cost guidance reflects industry-wide inflationary pressures on consumables. Updated exploration guidance shows an increase in exploration expense and capitalized exploration The increase in exploration investment reflects additional planned expansion and infill drilling at Silvertip, Palmarejo and Kensington.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2022 compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2022
Gold and silver production increased 37% and 5%, respectively, largely due to increased placement rates from the first quarter. Metal sales were $30.5 million, or 15% of Coeur’s metal sales, compared with $26.4 million, or 14% of Coeur’s metal sales. Revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2022 increased by $4.1 million or 16%, of which $5.0 million was the result of a higher volume of gold and silver sales, partially offset by a $0.9 million decrease as a result of lower average realized silver prices. Costs applicable to sales per gold ounce increased 3% and decreased 5% per silver ounce due to the mix of gold and silver sales and higher maintenance and consumable costs partially due to inflationary pressures. Amortization increased to $5.0 million due to higher ounces sold. Capital expenditures increased to $47.0 million due to timing of payments related to the POA 11 expansion project.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2022 compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2021
Gold production increased 2% while silver production decreased 19%, as a result of lower tons placed in prior year, lower silver grades and the timing of gold and silver recoveries. Metal sales were $56.9 million, or 14% of Coeur’s metal sales, compared with $70.8 million, or 17% of Coeur’s metal sales. Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2022 decreased by $14.0 million or 20%, of which $9.8 million was the result of a lower volume of gold and silver sales and $4.2 million was the result of lower average realized silver prices, partially offset by higher average realized gold prices. Costs applicable to sales per gold and silver ounce increased 48% and 24%, respectively, due to the mix of gold and silver sales, higher maintenance and consumable costs partially due to inflationary pressures, and LCM adjustments. Amortization decreased to $9.7 million due to lower ounces sold. Capital expenditures increased to $80.0 million from $72.4 million due to payments related to the POA 11 expansion project.
As of June 30, 2022, the total estimated project capital cost remained approximately $600 million. With the commencement of structural, mechanical, piping, electrical and instrumentation construction work, completion of final major high-voltage electrical contracts and initial commitments for the pre-screen addition to the expanded crusher circuit, the Company has committed approximately $523 million and incurred $350 million of the total estimated project cost through June 30, 2022.
The expansion consists of three major components: (i) a new 300-million-ton leach pad, for which civil work is essentially complete and piping work is near completion; (ii) a Merrill-Crowe process plant with construction completion scheduled for the first half of 2023; and (iii) a new three-stage crushing circuit with construction completion scheduled for mid-2023. These scheduled construction completion dates for the project remain unchanged.
Construction of the Merrill-Crowe process plant ramped up during the second quarter, including completion of concrete work, continuation of equipment setting, and the commencement of building and process plant steel pipe rack erection, as well as piping and cable tray installation.
Work on the crusher corridor included (i) continued civil construction in the primary crusher area, (ii) the completion of concrete work, start of steel construction, and setting of conveyor and equipment in the secondary crusher area, (iii) continued advancement of concrete work and start of steel erection in the secondary stock pile reclaim area, (iv) completion of concrete in the tertiary crusher area, and (v) continuation of concrete in the tertiary reclaim and final product load-out areas. Deliveries of equipment and materials for the project continue to support the overall construction schedule.

The Company also recently advanced detailed engineering on the pre-screens. Equipment procurement and construction contract development is well underway as Coeur continues working to align construction of the pre-screens with the completion of the new crusher. Final cost estimates related to pre-screens are expected in the third quarter.
The Company began installation of pre-screens on the existing crusher corridor on June 23 and commenced commissioning on July 22. Ramp-up of the pilot system as well as optimization of the product size placed under leach is scheduled to take place during the month of August. The experience and knowledge gained from utilizing pre-screens is expected to facilitate the integration of pre-screen technology into the new crusher system flowsheet for POA 11.

Silvertip
Six Months Ended June 30, 2022
Silvertip suspended mining and processing activities, unrelated to COVID-19, in February 2020. Ongoing carrying and suspension costs are included in Pre-development, reclamation, and other.
Coeur continues to advance study work to assess the economics of a potential future expansion and restart of its high-grade Silvertip silver-zinc-lead development project in British Columbia, Canada. The Company’s objective remains to complete an evaluation by year end of higher throughput scenarios to reduce unit costs and to take advantage of Silvertip’s expanding, high-grade resource base.
Ongoing carrying costs at Silvertip totaled $10.9 million in the first half of 2022, compared to $13.4 million in the prior year. Capital expenditures during the first half of 2022 totaled $17.6 million compared to $28.9 million in the prior year due to continued infill drilling and underground development. For 2022, capital expenditures are now expected to be approximately $28 - $36 million (previously $18 - $24 million). The revised figures reflect increase underground development and infill drilling.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
At June 30, 2022, the Company had $75.6 million of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash and $244.5 million available under the RCF. Cash and cash equivalents increased $17.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022, due to the net proceeds of $98.3 million from the sale of 22.1 million shares of its common stock, net proceeds of $15.3 million received from the sale of the La Preciosa project, and a 13% and 4% increase in gold and silver ounces sold, respectively, partially offset by a 6% decrease in average realized silver prices, higher operating costs and capital expenditures related to POA 11 at Rochester.
In March 2022, the Company completed a $100.0 million “at the market” offering of its common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Equity Offering”). The Company sold a total of 22,053,275 shares of common stock in the Equity Offering at an average price of $4.53 per share, raising net proceeds (after sales commissions) of $98.3 million.
On May 2, 2022, the Company entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to the RCF to, among other things, increase the maximum principal amount of the RCF by $90.0 million in incremental loans and commitments to an aggregate of $390.0 million. At June 30, 2022, the Company had $115.0 million drawn and $30.0 million in outstanding letters of credit under the RCF. The Company also holds $99.1 million of equity securities including a 17.8% interest in Victoria Gold Corporation (“Victoria Gold”). On June 28, 2022, the Company entered into an agreement to sell 5,000,000 shares of common stock of Victoria Gold (“Victoria Gold Common Shares”) at a price of $8.34 per Victoria Gold Common Share, which settled on July 5, 2022 for net proceeds of $40.5 million. Following the sale, the Company holds a 9.4% interest in Victoria Gold.
The Company had outstanding forward contracts on 221,000 ounces of gold at June 30, 2022 that settle monthly through December 2023. The Company is targeting to hedge up to 70% of expected gold production in 2022, 50% of expected gold production for the first half of 2023 and 25% of expected gold production for the second half of 2023 in order to protect cash flow during a period of elevated capital expenditures, and may in the future layer on additional hedges as circumstances warrant. The weighted average fixed price on the forward contracts is $1,974 per ounce of gold.

We currently believe we have sufficient sources of funding to meet our business requirements for the next twelve months and longer-term. We expect to use a combination of cash provided by operating activities, borrowings under our RCF and additional finance leases to fund near term capital requirements, including those described in this Report for POA 11 and in our 2022 capital expenditure guidance. We also have additional potential sources of funding including proceeds from potential asset sales, and the monetization of our equity investments, including our remaining common shares of Victoria Gold. Our longer-term plans contemplate the expansion and restart of Silvertip, as well as the continued exploration and potential development of our other projects, such as Crown/Sterling and the Lincoln Hill area adjacent to Rochester.
As of June 30, 2022, the total estimated project capital cost remained approximately $600 million. With the commencement of structural, mechanical, piping, electrical and instrumentation construction work, completion of final major high-voltage electrical contracts and initial commitments for the pre-screen addition to the expanded crusher circuit, the Company has committed approximately $523 million and incurred $350 million of the total estimated project cost through June 30, 2022.
We also have additional obligations as part of our ordinary course of business, beyond those committed for capital expenditures and other purchase obligations and commitments for purchases of goods and services.
If and to the extent liquidity resources are insufficient to support short- and long-term expenditures, we may need to incur additional indebtedness or issue additional equity securities, among other financing options, which may not be available on acceptable terms or at all. This could have a material adverse impact on the Company, as discussed in more detail under Item 1A – Risk Factors in the 2021 10-K and part II, Item 1A of this report.
Cash Provided by (Used in) Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was $22.6 million, compared to net cash used in operating activities of $6.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $16.2 million, compared to $53.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was $43.3 million, compared to $41.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. Adjusted EBITDA for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $77.3 million, compared to $118.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 (see “Non-GAAP Financial Performance Measures”). Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities was impacted by the following key factors for the applicable periods:

Cash provided by (used in) operating activities $22,644 $(6,427)$16,217 $53,700 
Net cash provided by operating activities increased $29.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022, primarily as a result of a 13% and 4% increase in gold and silver ounces sold, respectively, mining and income taxes paid at Palmarejo in the first quarter of 2022, lower exploration costs and lower Silvertip ongoing carrying costs, partially offset by a 6% decrease in average realized silver prices and timing of VAT collections at Palmarejo. Revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022 increased by $15.7 million, of which $18.6 million was due to higher volume of gold and silver sales, partially offset by a decrease of $2.9 million due to lower average realized silver prices.
Net cash provided by operating activities decreased $37.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021, primarily due to lower gold ounces sold (7%), a 12% decrease in average realized silver prices, and higher operating costs, partially offset by a 4% increase in average realized gold prices, lower exploration costs, lower Silvertip ongoing carrying costs, and timing of VAT collections at Palmarejo. Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021 decreased by $24.4 million, of which $20.6 million was due to lower volume of gold and silver sales and $3.8 million was due to lower average realized silver prices.

Cash Used in Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities in the three months ended June 30, 2022 was $72.5 million compared to $54.1 million in the three months ended March 31, 2022. Cash used in investing activities increased primarily due to the timing of payments related to POA 11 construction activities at Rochester and the impact of the receipt of net proceeds of $15.3 million from the sale of the La Preciosa project in the first quarter of 2022. The Company incurred capital expenditures of $73.2 million in the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared with $69.5 million in the three months ended March 31, 2022 primarily related to POA 11 construction activities at Rochester and underground development at Palmarejo and Kensington in both periods.
Net cash used in investing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $126.7 million compared to $132.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2021. Cash used in investing activities decreased primarily due to the receipt of net proceeds of $15.3 million from the sale of the La Preciosa project in the first quarter of 2022, partially offset by construction activities related to POA 11 at Rochester. The Company incurred capital expenditures of $142.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared with $137.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2021. Capital expenditures in the six months ended June 30, 2022 were primarily related to POA 11 construction activities at Rochester and underground development at Palmarejo and Kensington. Capital expenditures in the six months ended June 30, 2021 were primarily related to POA 11 construction activities at Rochester, potential expansion expenditures at Silvertip and underground development at Palmarejo and Kensington.
The Company is experiencing inflationary pressures, specifically with respect to building materials and fuel as well as overall tightness in the construction market related to capital projects, most notably the POA 11 project at Rochester, and to operating costs company-wide.
Cash Provided by Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities in the three months ended June 30, 2022 was $50.7 million compared to $76.7 million in the three months ended March 31, 2022. During the three months ended June 30, 2022, the Company drew $60.0 million, net, from the RCF. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company received net proceeds of $98.3 million from the sale of 22.1 million shares of its common stock in the Equity Offering, partially offset by the net repayment of $10.0 million under the RCF.
Net cash provided by financing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $127.5 million compared to $109.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2021. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company borrowed $155.0 million and repaid $105.0 million under the RCF, and received net proceeds of $98.3 million from the sale of 22.1 million shares of its common stock in the Equity Offering. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company received net proceeds of $367.5 million from the issuance of the 2029 Senior Notes, partially offset by the tender and redemption of the 2024 Senior Notes for $238.3 million, including premiums.

Critical Accounting Policies and Accounting Developments
See Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies contained in the 2021 10-K and Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies contained in this Report for the Company’s critical accounting policies and estimates.
Other Liquidity Matters
We believe that our liquidity and capital resources in the U.S. are adequate to fund our U.S. operations and corporate activities. The Company has asserted indefinite reinvestment of earnings from its Mexican operations as determined by management’s judgment about and intentions concerning the future operations of the Company. The Company does not believe that the amounts reinvested will have a material impact on liquidity.
In order to reduce indebtedness, fund future cash interest payments and/or amounts due at maturity or upon redemption and for general working capital purposes, from time-to-time we may (1) issue equity securities for cash in public or private offerings or (2) repurchase certain of our debt securities for cash or in exchange for other securities, which may include secured or unsecured notes or equity, in each case in open market or privately negotiated transactions. We evaluate any such transactions in light of prevailing market conditions, liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions, and other factors. The amounts involved may be significant and any debt repurchase transactions may occur at a substantial discount to the debt securities’ face amount.

Non-GAAP Financial Performance Measures
Non-GAAP financial measures are intended to provide additional information only and do not have any standard meaning prescribed by generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Unless otherwise noted, we present the Non-GAAP financial measures in the tables below. These measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Adjusted Net Income (Loss)
Management uses Adjusted net income (loss) to evaluate the Company’s operating performance, and to plan and forecast its operations. The Company believes the use of Adjusted net income (loss) reflects the underlying operating performance of our core mining business and allows investors and analysts to compare results of the Company to similar results of other mining companies. Management’s determination of the components of Adjusted net income (loss) are evaluated periodically and is based, in part, on a review of non-GAAP financial measures used by mining industry analysts. The tax effect of adjustments are based on statutory tax rates and the Company’s tax attributes, including the impact through the Company’s valuation allowance. The combined effective rate of tax adjustments may not be consistent with the statutory tax rates or the Company’s effective tax rate due to jurisdictional tax attributes and related valuation allowance impacts which may minimize the tax effect of certain adjustments and may not apply to gains and losses equally. Adjusted net income (loss) is reconciled to Net income (loss) in the following table:

(1) For the three months ended June 30, 2022, tax effect of adjustments of -$1.5 million (2%) is primarily related to the to the fair value adjustments on the Company’s equity investments. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, tax effect of adjustments of $11.0 million (96%) is primarily related to the de-recognition of deferred tax liabilities related to the sale of La Preciosa. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, tax effect of adjustments of $9.5 million (-19%) is primarily related to the de-recognition of deferred tax liabilities related to the sale of La Preciosa and the fair value adjustments on the Company’s equity investments. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, tax effect of adjustments of $1.1 million (-3%) are primarily related to the fair value adjustments on the Company’s equity investments.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
Management uses EBITDA to evaluate the Company’s operating performance, to plan and forecast its operations, and assess leverage levels and liquidity measures. The Company believes the use of EBITDA reflects the underlying operating performance of our core mining business and allows investors and analysts to compare results of the Company to similar results of other mining companies. Adjusted EBITDA is a measure used in indenture governing the 2029 Senior Notes and the RCF to determine our ability to make certain payments and incur additional indebtedness. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not represent, and should not be considered an alternative to, Net income (Loss) or Cash Flow from Operations as determined under GAAP. Other companies may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently and those calculations may not be comparable to our presentation. Adjusted EBITDA is reconciled to Net income (loss) in the following table:

Free Cash Flow
Management uses Free Cash Flow as a non-GAAP measure to analyze cash flows generated from operations. Free Cash Flow is Cash Provided By (used in) Operating Activities less Capital expenditures as presented on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. The Company believes Free Cash Flow is also useful as one of the bases for comparing the Company’s performance with its competitors. Although Free Cash Flow and similar measures are frequently used as measures of cash flows generated from operations by other companies, the Company’s calculation of Free Cash Flow is not necessarily comparable to such other similarly titled captions of other companies.

Operating Cash Flow Before Changes in Working Capital
Management uses Operating Cash Flow Before Changes in Working Capital as a non-GAAP measure to analyze cash flows generated from operations. Operating Cash Flow Before Changes in Working Capital is Cash Provided By (used in) Operating Activities excluding the change in Receivables, Prepaid expenses and other, Inventories and Accounts payable and accrued liabilities as presented on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. The Company believes Operating Cash Flow Before Changes in Working Capital is also useful as one of the bases for comparing the Company’s performance with its competitors. Although Operating Cash Flow Before Changes in Working Capital and similar measures are frequently used as measures of cash flows generated from operations by other companies, the Company’s calculation of Operating Cash Flow Before Changes in Working Capital is not necessarily comparable to such other similarly titled captions of other companies.
The following table sets forth a reconciliation of Operating Cash Flow Before Changes in Working Capital, a non-GAAP financial measure, to Cash Provided By (used in) Operating Activities, which the Company believes to be the GAAP financial measure most directly comparable to Operating Cash Flow Before Changes in Working Capital.

Costs Applicable to Sales
Management uses CAS to evaluate the Company’s current operating performance and life of mine performance from discovery through reclamation. We believe these measures assist analysts, investors and other stakeholders in understanding the costs associated with producing gold, silver, zinc and lead, assessing our operating performance and ability to generate free cash flow from operations and sustaining production. These measures may not be indicative of operating profit or cash flow from operations as determined under GAAP. Management believes that allocating CAS to gold, silver, zinc and lead based on gold, silver, zinc and lead metal sales relative to total metal sales best allows management, analysts, investors and other stakeholders to evaluate the operating performance of the Company. Other companies may calculate CAS differently as a result of reflecting the benefit from selling non-silver metals as a by-product credit, converting to silver equivalent ounces, and differences in underlying accounting principles and accounting frameworks such as in International Financial Reporting Standards.

The Company disclaims any intent or obligation to update publicly these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
Item 3.        Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
The Company is exposed to various market risks as a part of its operations and engages in risk management strategies to mitigate these risks. The Company continually evaluates the potential benefits of engaging in these strategies based on current market conditions. The Company does not actively engage in the practice of trading derivative instruments for profit. Additional information about the Company’s derivative financial instruments may be found in Note 13 -- Derivative Financial Instruments in the notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements. This discussion of the Company’s market risk assessments contains “forward looking statements”. For additional information regarding forward-looking statements and risks and uncertainties that could impact the Company, please refer to Item 2 of this Report - Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements. Actual results and actions could differ materially from those discussed below.
Gold, Silver, Zinc and Lead Prices
Gold, silver, zinc and lead prices may fluctuate widely due to numerous factors, such as U.S. dollar strength or weakness, demand, investor sentiment, inflation or deflation, and global mine production. The Company’s profitability and cash flow may be significantly impacted by changes in the market price of gold, silver, zinc and lead.
44


Hedging
To mitigate the risks associated with metal price fluctuations, the Company may enter into option contracts to hedge future production. The Company had outstanding forward contracts on 221,000 ounces of gold at June 30, 2022 that settle monthly through December 2023. The Company is targeting to hedge up to 70% of expected gold production through 2022, 50% of expected gold production for the first half of 2023 and 25% of expected gold production for the second half of 2023 in order to protect cash flow during a period of elevated capital expenditures, and may in the future layer on additional hedges as circumstances warrant. The weighted average fixed price on the forward contracts is $1,974 per ounce of gold. The contracts are generally net cash settled and, if the spot price of gold at the time of expiration is lower than the fixed price or higher than the fixed prices, it would result in a realized gain or loss, respectively. The forward contracts expose us to (i) credit risk in the form of non-performance by counterparties for contracts in which the contract price is below the spot price of a commodity, and (ii) price risk to the extent that the spot price exceeds the contract price for quantities of our production covered under contract positions. To reduce counter-party credit exposure, the Company enters into contracts with institutions management deems credit-worthy and limits credit exposure to each institution. The Company does not anticipate non-performance by any of its counterparties. For additional information, please see the section titled “Risk Factors” in the 2021 10-K and part II, Item 1A of this report.
At June 30, 2022, the fair value of the gold forward contracts was an asset of $29.3 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2022 the Company recognized a gain of $3.1 million related to expired contracts in Revenue and the remaining outstanding forwards contracts were included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). A 10% increase and decrease in the price of gold at June 30, 2022 would result in a net realized loss and gain of $7.2 million and $74.8 million, respectively. The closing price of gold was $1,817 per ounce. As of August 2, 2022, the closing price of gold was $1,780 per ounce.
Provisional Metal Sales
The Company enters into sales contracts with third-party smelters and refiners which, in some cases, provide for a provisional payment based upon preliminary assays and quoted metal prices. The provisionally priced sales contracts contain an embedded derivative that is required to be separated from the host contract. Depending on the difference between the price at the time of sale and the final settlement price, embedded derivatives are recorded as either a derivative asset or liability. The embedded derivatives do not qualify for hedge accounting and, as a result, are marked to the market gold and silver price at the end of each period from the provisional sale date to the date of final settlement. The mark-to-market gains and losses are recorded in earnings. At June 30, 2022, the Company had outstanding provisionally priced sales of 10,842 ounces of gold at an average price of $1,846. Changes in gold prices resulted in provisional pricing mark-to-market gain of $0.01 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022. A 10% change in realized gold prices would cause revenue to vary by $2.0 million.
Foreign Currency
The Company operates, or has mineral interests, in several foreign countries including Canada, Mexico, and New Zealand, which exposes it to foreign currency exchange rate risks. Foreign currency exchange rates are influenced by world market factors beyond the Company’s control such as supply and demand for U.S. and foreign currencies and related monetary and fiscal policies. Fluctuations in local currency exchange rates in relation to the U.S. dollar may significantly impact profitability and cash flow.
Foreign Exchange Hedging
To manage foreign currency risk, the Company may enter into foreign currency forward exchange contracts. In 2020, the Company entered into foreign currency forward contracts to manage this risk and designated these instruments as cash flow hedges of forecasted foreign denominated transactions. The Company had no outstanding foreign currency forward exchange contracts at June 30, 2022.
Interest Rates
Interest Rate Hedging
We may use financial instruments to manage exposures to changes in interest rates on loans, which exposes us to credit risk and market risk. Credit risk is the failure of the counterparty to perform under the terms of the derivative contract. When the fair value of a derivative contract is positive, the counterparty owes us, which creates credit risk for us. When the fair value of a derivative contract is negative, we owe the counterparty and, therefore, it does not pose credit risk. We seek to minimize the credit risk in derivative instruments by entering into transactions with what we believe are high-quality counterparties. Market risk is the adverse effect on the value of a financial instrument that results from a change in interest rates. The Company had no outstanding interest rate swaps at June 30, 2022.
45


Investment Risk
Equity Price Risk
We are exposed to changes in the fair value of our investments in equity securities. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recognized unrealized losses of $49.1 million in Fair value adjustments, net due to decreases in the stock price of those equity securities. At June 30, 2022, the fair value of the equity securities was $99.1 million. A 10% change in realized equity prices would result in an unrealized gain or loss of $10.0 million.

Item 4.    Controls and Procedures
(a)Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and management necessarily applied its judgment in assessing the costs and benefits of such controls and procedures, which by their nature, can provide only reasonable assurance regarding management’s control objectives. The design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events. Based upon the foregoing, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective and operating to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by it in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and to provide reasonable assurance that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
(b)    Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended June 30, 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, its internal control over financial reporting.

PART II

Item 1.         Legal Proceedings
See Note 17 -- Commitments and Contingencies in the notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included herein.

Item 1A.     Risk Factors
Item 1A -- Risk Factors of the 2021 10-K sets forth information relating to important risks and uncertainties that could materially adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition or operating results. Those risk factors have been supplemented and updated in the Company’s Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 (the “Q1 2022 10-Q”) and in this Form 10-Q. Except as supplemented and updated in the Q1 2022 10-Q and below, the risk factors set forth in the 2021 10-K remain current. Additional risks and uncertainties that the Company does not presently know or that it currently deems immaterial also may impair our business operations.
We are required to obtain and renew governmental permits in order to conduct operations, a process which is often costly and time-consuming. Our ability to obtain necessary government permits to expand operations or begin new operations may be materially affected by third-party activists.
In the normal course of our business, we are required to obtain and renew governmental permits for exploration, operations and expansion of existing operations and for the development of new projects, such as the permits recently obtained for POA 11 at Rochester, POA 1 at Kensington and the permitting effort currently underway at Palmarejo to allow the deposit of future tailings into the legacy open pit rather than expand the current tailings impoundment facility. Obtaining and renewing governmental permits is a complex and time-consuming process. The timeliness and success of permitting efforts are contingent upon many variables not within our control, including the interpretation of permit approval requirements administered by the applicable permitting authority and government and third-party sentiment towards the mining industry generally. We may not be able to obtain or renew permits that are necessary to our operations or the cost and time required to obtain or renew permits may exceed our expectations. Any unexpected delays or costs associated with the permitting process could delay the development or impede the operation of a mine, which in turn could materially adversely affect our revenues and future growth. For example, we are currently experiencing prolonged delays by the Mexican federal environmental authority, SEMARNAT, in approving the permit described above to deposit future tailings into the legacy open pit at Palmarejo. We believe we have complied with all applicable requirements for the issuance of the permit, and expected to receive it last year. As has been publicized in media coverage, we understand that other mining projects in Mexico are also experiencing permitting delays or, in certain circumstances, denials of permits. We are engaging in advocacy with government authorities to advance our permit application, which we believe has satisfied all criteria for approval, but there can be no assurance as to the timing of approval. Any further delay in obtaining the permit may require us to revise mine plans to curtail expected production at Palmarejo due to shortfalls in tailings storage capacity, which could materially adversely affect 2023 results of operations and cash flow. In addition, key permits and approvals may be revoked or suspended or may be changed in a manner that adversely affects our operations.
Private parties such as environmental activists frequently attempt to intervene in the permitting process and to persuade regulators to deny necessary permits or seek to overturn permits that have been issued. Obtaining the necessary governmental permits is a complex and time-consuming process involving numerous jurisdictions and often involving public hearings and costly undertakings. These third-party actions can materially increase the costs and cause delays in the permitting process and could cause us to not proceed with the development or expansion of a mine. In addition, our ability to successfully obtain key permits and approvals to explore for, develop, operate and expand mines and to conduct our operations will likely depend on our ability to develop, operate, expand and close mines in a manner that is consistent with the creation of social and economic benefits in the surrounding communities, which may or may not be required by law. Our ability to obtain permits and approvals and to successfully operate in particular communities may be adversely impacted by real or perceived detrimental events associated with our activities or those of other mining companies affecting the environment, human health and safety of communities in which we operate.

Item 4.     Mine Safety Disclosures
Information pertaining to mine safety matters is reported in accordance with Section 1503(a) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act in Exhibit 95.1 attached to this Form 10-Q.

Item 5.     Other Information
In accordance with Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the Company’s insider trading policy, Mitchell J. Krebs, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, entered into a selling plan on May 13, 2022. Under the selling plan, between August 2022 and August 2024, Mr. Krebs will sell a total of 200,000 shares of the Company’s common stock so long as the market price of the common stock is higher than the minimum threshold price specified in the plan.
Rule 10b5-1 permits an insider to implement a written prearranged trading plan entered into at a time when the insider is not aware of any material nonpublic information about the Company and allows the insider to trade on a one-time or regularly scheduled basis regardless of any material nonpublic information about the Company thereafter received by the insider.
