Financial Results
During the year ended December 31, 2023 Seabridge posted a net loss of $29.3 million ($0.35 per share) compared to a net loss of $7.4 million ($0.09 per share) for the previous 12 month period.

At December 31, 2023, net working capital was $54.5 million compared to $88.4 million at December 31, 2022.
The reported net loss for 2023 was mostly due to a non-cash $29.7 million loss associated with the remeasurement of the Secured Note liabilities that are structured to convert into royalties at KSM upon commercial production. Under IFRS, remeasurement of the Secured Note liabilities result in changes in the fair value at each reporting date, due to changes in input variables such as market interest rates and metal prices. However, these changes in fair value are unrealized. The Secured Notes will either be put back to the Company at the prescribed amount under the rights of the noteholders, or they will be exchanged for the prescribed royalties at maturity. For details on the accounting for the secured notes please see Note 12 to the 2023 Audited Financial Statements.
Seabridge holds a 100% interest in several North American gold projects. Seabridge’s principal assets, the KSM project, and its Iskut project are located in British Columbia, Canada’s “Golden Triangle”, the Courageous Lake project is in Canada’s Northwest Territories, the Snowstorm project in the Getchell Gold Belt of Northern Nevada and the 3 Aces project set in the Yukon Territory.
