Coeur Reports Third Quarter 2015 Results

15% Drop in Adjusted Costs Applicable to Sales and 17% Decline in All-in Sustaining Costs per Silver Equivalent Ounce Compared to 3Q 2014

Raising Full-Year Production Guidance Range and Reducing Full-Year Cost Guidance Range

Chicago, Illinois - November 2, 2015 - Coeur Mining, Inc. (the 'Company' or 'Coeur') (NYSE: CDE) reported third quarter 2015 revenue of $162.6 million, adjusted EBITDA1 of $31.4 million, adjusted net loss1 of $0.16 per share, and cash flow from operating activities of $36.2 million. The Company sold 9.5 million silver equivalent1 ounces during the third quarter, comprised of 91,118 ounces of gold and 4.0 million ounces of silver.

Adjusted costs applicable to sales per silver equivalent ounce1 of $12.07 declined 4% from the second quarter and dropped 15% compared to the same quarter last year (equivalence calculated based on a 60:1 ratio). Adjusted costs applicable to sales were $11.00 per silver equivalent ounce using average realized prices to calculate equivalent ounces.

Adjusted all-in sustaining costs declined 9% from the second quarter and dropped 17% compared to the same quarter last year to $15.17 per silver equivalent ounce1 (equivalence calculated based on a 60:1 ratio). Adjusted all-in sustaining costs were $13.14 per silver equivalent ounce1 using average realized prices to calculate equivalent ounces.

'Our third quarter results provide further evidence that our strategic initiatives are dramatically reshaping the Company,' said Mitchell J. Krebs, Coeur's President and Chief Executive Officer.

'At Palmarejo, underground mining rates from the higher-grade Guadalupe deposit averaged over 1,700 tons per day during the third quarter and the next target is 2,000 tons per day by the end of the year. Efforts to develop the newly-acquired Independencia underground deposit located approximately 800 meters from Guadalupe remain on-track to reach the ore body by the end of 2015. Mining from Independencia is expected to begin in the first quarter of 2016 and will become a second source of high-grade ore along with Guadalupe. As expected, we intersected high-grade mineralization while driving the tunnel from Guadalupe to Independencia, which has the potential to become a new source of high-grade ore.

'Along with several process-related improvements that have been implemented, the metallurgical characteristics of the ore from Guadalupe are resulting in significantly higher recovery rates for both silver and gold. We filed a new NI 43-101 technical report for Palmarejo today, which reflects the mine's ongoing transition to underground mining and incorporates Independencia for the first time since closing the acquisition of Paramount Gold and Silver Corp. in April. Also included in the technical report are updated reserves for Palmarejo based on new silver and gold price assumptions, which provides the basis for a robust mine plan for the next seven years. The significant amount of resources and the opportunity to add further reserves and resources through our ongoing drilling activities makes us optimistic about the potential to further extend and enhance Palmarejo's operating and financial profile.

'Plans to further expand our Rochester mine in Nevada remain on-track and recent efforts to capture the efficiencies of larger scale mining are clearly paying off. Production levels this year are expected to be 15% - 30% higher than last year while unit costs are expected to be 10% -15% lower than 2014. We have now completed work to expand a crusher facility that is expected to allow us to sustain mining and crushing rates of over 16 million tons per year and capture additional volume-related efficiencies. Permitting efforts for the next leach pad remain on schedule. The public comment period concluded in early October and we will now complete the final EIS by year-end and expect to receive the Record of Decision during the first half of 2016. Construction of the next leach pad is scheduled for 2017.

'At Kensington, the decline down to the high-grade Jualin deposit kicked off in early August and has now advanced approximately 700 feet. Currently, Jualin is estimated to contain approximately 289,000 tons of inferred resources with an average grade of 0.62 ounces per ton, which is over triple Kensington's average reserve grade. Once we gain better access from underground, we will begin to more efficiently drill Jualin to better define and hopefully expand this new high-grade discovery before mining begins in 2017.

'Since closing on the acquisition of the Wharf gold mine in South Dakota in February for $99.8 million, we announced a 39% increase in the total reserve and are now seeing production levels rise and costs drop significantly. During the third quarter, Wharf's costs per ounce dropped 26% compared to the second quarter to $716 per gold equivalent ounce1, leading to over $12 million of free cash flow from our newest operation.

'Since the end of the third quarter, we took advantage of an opportunity to eliminate 10% of total outstanding debt at a 24% discount to par value by agreeing to exchange an estimated 14.4 million shares of common stock for approximately $54 million of our 7.875% Notes due 2021. Adjusting for this lower level of debt, our net debt is expected to be $287 million and our net debt to LTM EBITDA ratio is expected to drop 16% to 3.2x. Cash at the end of the third quarter stood at $206 million, virtually unchanged from the end of the second quarter, despite significantly lower silver and gold prices. We believe that by meaningfully reducing debt and sustaining our liquidity levels in the face of lower prices, we are proactively addressing two areas of perceived risk facing the equity value of the Company.'

Financial Results

The Company realized average silver and gold prices of $14.66 and $1,116 during the third quarter, which were lower by 10% and 5%, respectively, compared to the second quarter and were 25% and 11% lower, respectively, compared to last year's third quarter.

Third quarter revenue decreased 2% compared with the second quarter to $162.6 million due to lower metal prices, partially offset by a 5% increase in silver equivalent ounces sold. Silver contributed 37% of the Company's metal sales and gold contributed 63% during the third quarter.

General and administrative expenses decreased 21% to $6.7 million in the third quarter due to further cost reduction measures. Capital expenditures were $23.9 million in the third quarter. For the first nine months of 2015, general and administrative expenses were $24.0 million and capital expenditures were $65.2 million. For the full year, general and administrative expenses are expected to be $33 - $35 million and capital expenditures are expected to be $95 - $105 million.

Third quarter adjusted EBITDA1 was $31.4 million, a 10% decrease from the second quarter primarily due to lower metal prices. Adjusted net loss1 was $21.8 million, or $0.16 per share, compared to a loss of $14.5 million, or $0.11 per share, in the second quarter. The third quarter adjusted net loss1 mainly excludes inventory adjustments to net realizable value, foreign exchange losses on deferred taxes, and fair value adjustments to royalty obligations.

  • Adjusted costs applicable to sales per silver equivalent ounce1 of $11.40 decreased 14% from the second quarter due to higher grades, stronger recoveries, and a higher proportion of production from underground. Compared to last year's third quarter, Adjusted costs applicable to sales per silver equivalent ounce1 declined 21%

  • Free cash flow of $2.2 million reached the highest level since the third quarter of 2014 when realized silver and gold prices averaged $19.46 and $1,260, respectively

  • Palmarejo continues the transition to underground mining at the Guadalupe mine and the Independencia mine (expected beginning early 2016) while mining activities in the historic zones gradually decline

  • Daily mining rates at Guadalupe averaged more than 1,700 tons per day during the quarter, which triggered the October receipt of the remaining $8 million deposit from an affiliate of Franco-Nevada Corporation under the gold stream agreement entered into in October 2014

  • Stronger recovery rates for silver and gold resulted from reduced tailings losses due to tighter operational controls around thickening, longer retention time due to lower processing rates, and higher proportions of Guadalupe ore

  • Development of the twin declines to Independencia are now approaching 700 meters each (approximately 70% complete) and is expected to reach the Independencia ore body by the end of 2015

  • On November 2, an updated technical report was filed reflecting average annual production of approximately six million ounces of silver and 100,000 ounces of gold over the next seven years. See press release issued November 2, 2015

  • Coeur is raising 2015 production guidance for Palmarejo by 7% to 4.7 - 5.0 million ounces of silver and 65,000 - 70,000 ounces of gold. Coeur is also lowering 2015 cost guidance from $15.00 - $16.00 to $14.00 - $14.50

  • Political protests in Potosi, Bolivia prompted a three-week cessation of mining activity in July, which caused a 21% decrease in production and a 9% increase in adjusted costs applicable to sales per silver ounce to $14.41 for the quarter

  • To supplement tonnage from ongoing mining activities, Coeur recently began purchasing larger volumes of higher-grade ore from local sources to feed into the processing facility. Approximately 17% of third quarter production was generated by third-party ore purchases

  • In 2015, San Bartolomé is expected to produce 5.3 - 5.5 million ounces of silver at costs applicable to sales of $13.50 - $14.50 per silver ounce, down from prior guidance of $13.50 - $15.00

  • Coeur Capital's largest source of cash flow is the silver stream on the Endeavor mine in New South Wales, Australia in which the Company owns 100% of the silver up to a total of 20.0 million payable ounces. At September 30, 2015, the Company has received 5.9 million ounces, or 30.0% of the total

  • There are five cash-flowing royalties and streams, two non-cash-flowing royalties, and several investments in junior mining companies held in Coeur Capital or its affiliates

Exploration

Costs associated with exploration activities for the third quarter of 2015 were $2.1 million (expensed) for discovery of new silver and gold mineralization and $1.4 million (capitalized) for definition and expansion of mineralized material. These amounts compare to exploration costs of $3.6 million expensed and $2.2 million capitalized in the second quarter. Coeur's exploration program used 7 drill rigs during the third quarter: 3 drills at Palmarejo, 1 at Kensington, 2 at Rochester, 1 at Wharf, and 1 at La Preciosa. This work resulted in completion of over 57,776 feet (17,610 meters) of combined core and reverse circulation drilling.

Exploration expenses are expected to total $13 - $16 million in 2015, with additional capital allocated to resource conversion. Coeur continues to use a success-based approach to funding exploration activities, with a near-term focus on higher grade targets at Palmarejo at and near the Guadalupe operation, drilling near-surface oxide targets at La Preciosa, drilling new targets near Wharf, mapping and sampling around Rochester and Kensington, and the selective acquisition and maintenance of early-stage projects.

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 adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income (loss), costs applicable to sales per silver equivalent ounce (or per gold equivalent ounce), adjusted costs applicable to sales per silver equivalent ounce, all-in sustaining costs, and adjusted all-in sustaining costs. 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 adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income (loss), costs applicable to sales per silver equivalent ounce (or per gold equivalent ounce), adjusted costs applicable to sales per silver equivalent ounce, all-in sustaining costs, and adjusted all-in sustaining costs are important measures in assessing the Company's overall financial performance.

Notes

1. Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income (loss), all-in sustaining costs, adjusted all-in sustaining costs, costs applicable to sales per silver equivalent ounce (or per gold equivalent ounce), and adjusted costs applicable to sales per silver equivalent ounce are non-GAAP measures. Please see tables in the Appendix for the reconciliation to U.S. GAAP. For purposes of silver and gold equivalence, a 60:1 silver to gold ratio is assumed except where noted as average realized prices.
2. Includes capital leases. Net of debt issuance costs and premium received.
3. Free cash flow is defined as cash flow from operating activities less capital expenditures and royalty payments.
