NEWS RELEASE

Equinox Gold Reports Second Quarter 2024 Financial and Operating Results

All financial figures are in US dollars, unless otherwise indicated.

August 7, 2024 - Vancouver, BC - Equinox Gold Corp. (TSX: EQX, NYSE American: EQX) ("Equinox Gold" or the "Company") is pleased to announce its second quarter 2024 summary financial and operating results. The Company's unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements and related management's discussion and analysis ("MD&A") for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 will be available for download on the Company's profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca, on EDGAR at www.sec.gov/edgar and on the Company's website at www.equinoxgold.com. The Company will host a conference call and webcast on August 8, 2024 commencing at 7:30 am Pacific Time to discuss second quarter results and activities underway at the Company. Further details are provided at the end of this news release.

Greg Smith, President and CEO of Equinox Gold, commented: "The highlight of the second quarter was achieving first gold pour at our new Greenstone Mine in Ontario. We also acquired our partner's 40% interest in the mine and now hold 100% of this world-class asset. We remain on schedule to achieve commercial production at Greenstone during the third quarter.

"At our Mesquite mine, slower-than-planned recoveries affected Q2 production and at our Aurizona mine, a geotechnical event caused a temporary suspension of production for May and June. Post quarter end, we have transitioned to residual leaching at our small Phase 1 Castle Mountain mine while we advance engineering and permitting for the 200,000-ounce-per-year Phase 2 expansion. Our adjusted guidance reflects lower production from these assets in 2024, offset by higher production and lower costs from our increased ownership in Greenstone. We continue to expect substantially higher gold production and significantly lower costs in the second half of 2024."

⁽³⁾ Numbers in tables throughout this news release may not sum due to rounding.

Gold ounces sold in Q2 2024 were 16% lower compared to Q2 2023 primarily due to 78% lower production at Aurizona, offset partially by production at Greenstone. At Aurizona, the lower production was due to the suspension of mining in the Piaba pit in April 2024 due to geotechnical issues. Milling and gold production continued from the existing ore stockpile until the end of April 2024. During Q2 2024, the plant was idle for eight weeks while mining transitioned to the Tatajuba pit. In May 2024, mining commenced at the Tatajuba open pit and ore production for plant feed started in June 2024. The plant was restarted in July 2024. At Greenstone, ore was introduced into the system on April 6, 2024, the first gold pour was achieved on schedule on May 22, 2024 and the mine continued to ramp up through the Quarter.

Gold ounces sold for the six months ended June 30, 2024 were 11% lower compared to the same period in 2023 primarily due to lower production at Aurizona and Los Filos, offset partially by production at Greenstone. The lower production at Aurizona is for the reasons mentioned above. At Los Filos, the lower production was expected and is attributable to mining sequencing, with more waste stripping during Q1 2024 as compared to Q1 2023, as well as the crusher being offline for most of Q1 2024 due to planned repositioning of a portion of the conveyor.

Revenue was lower in Q2 2024 compared to Q2 2023 primarily due to a decrease in gold ounces sold, partially offset by a 19% increase in realized gold prices. The Company realized $2,328 per ounce sold in Q2 2024 generating $269.4 million in revenue, compared to $1,962 per ounce sold in Q2 2023, generating $271.6 million in revenue.

Revenue was higher for the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023 due to a 14% increase in realized gold prices, offset partially by a decrease in gold ounces sold. The Company realized $2,197 per ounce sold for the six months ended June 30, 2024 generating $510.8 million in revenue, compared to $1,931 per ounce sold in the same period of 2023, generating $505.7 million in revenue.

Cash costs per oz sold and AISC per oz sold were 28% and 36% higher in Q2 2024 compared to Q2 2023, respectively, and were 22% and 27% higher for the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023, respectively. These results were primarily driven by lower production at Aurizona and higher costs at Santa Luz. While input costs were generally lower in 2024 than in 2023, several assets have experienced temporary operating issues that have impacted the cost per ounce metrics. Aurizona had geotechnical issues that limited mining operations during the Quarter and Santa Luz worked through recovery issues in H1 2024 that impacted processing and production. Additionally, capital spend at Santa Luz was higher in the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same periods in 2023, driven by a tailings storage facility ("TSF") raise.

Sustaining and non-sustaining expenditures totaled $31.0 million and $82.6 million, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2024. Sustaining and non-sustaining expenditures are broken down by mine site in the MD&A.

2024 GUIDANCE

The Company has updated its 2024 production and cost guidance to reflect the consolidation of its ownership of Greenstone, the suspension of mining at Castle Mountain Phase 1 until Phase 2 permitting is complete, slower-than-expected recoveries at Mesquite, and the geotechnical event at Aurizona.

⁽¹⁾ Cash costs per oz sold, AISC per oz sold, sustaining capital and non-sustaining capital are non-IFRS measures. See Non-IFRS Measures and Cautionary Notes.

⁽²⁾ Exchange rates used to forecast 2024 cash cost and AISC per oz include a rate of BRL 5:00 to USD 1 and MXN 17.50 to USD 1.

⁽³⁾ Sustaining expenditures include asset retirement obligation accretion and amortization, exploration expense and capital expenditures.

⁽⁴⁾ Non-sustaining expenditures include exploration expense and capital expenditures.

⁽⁵⁾ 2024 Guidance at Greenstone reflects the Company's 100% ownership of the project. Greenstone gold production guidance for 2024 includes all ounces expected to be produced during the pre-commercial production and commercial production periods. 2024 cash cost per ounce and AISC per ounce guidance figures are the expected costs of gold production after commercial production is achieved.

⁽⁶⁾ Group total is the sum or average of the individual mine-level amounts. Numbers may not sum due to rounding.

In May 2024, the Company fully consolidated ownership of Greenstone with the acquisition of the remaining 40% ownership interest from its former joint venture partner. The Company’s previous production guidance for Greenstone reflected its former 60% joint venture ownership interest. To reflect the Company’s now 100% ownership of the mine, 2024 Greenstone production and sustaining and non-sustaining expenditure guidance has been increased. There is no change to 2024 cash cost and AISC guidance for Greenstone.

On February 16, 2024, the Company stated as part of its 2024 guidance that, due to an extension into fiscal 2026 of the permitting process for the 200,000 ounce per year Phase 2 expansion plan, it was reviewing the Castle Mountain Phase 1 operation. Given the increasing costs associated with contract mining, crushing and agglomeration, and increasing complexity and variability in mining low-grade historical backfill, the Company will suspend mining at Castle Mountain for the duration of the Phase 2 permitting process. Residual leaching and gold production is expected to continue through the remainder of 2024. The primary focus at Castle Mountain will be on advancing permitting and engineering for construction of Phase 2. Accordingly, Castle Mountain will be reported as a development project going forward.

Mesquite production guidance for 2024 was 75,000 to 85,000 ounces of gold. However, while recoverable ounces stacked in 2024 is exceeding plan, the mine is realizing slower-than-expected recoveries from the heap leach pad and guidance has been adjusted to 55,000 to 65,000 ounces of gold. Cost guidance for 2024 is unchanged with cash costs of $1,345 to $1,445 per oz and AISC of $1,410 to $1,510 per oz. Budgeted sustaining expenditures of $5 million primarily relate to processing equipment. Non-sustaining expenditures, relating primarily to capitalized waste stripping of the Ginger pit, are expected to be $60 million. The decrease compared to original guidance is due to positive ore reconciliations in the Ginger pit, resulting in less capitalized waste stripping.

In late March 2024, due to persistent heavy rains at Aurizona, there was a displacement of material in two locations in the south wall of the Piaba pit and mining of that pit was suspended. The plant processed stockpiled ore through April and mining of the Tatajuba deposit, which was originally planned to start in Q4 2024, commenced in May. The plant was idle for May and June and restarted in July. Most of the ore feed for the remainder of 2024 will come from Tatajuba.

---

As a result of the impact of the geotechnical event, production guidance for 2024 has been reduced from 110,000 to 120,000 ounces of gold to 70,000 to 80,000 ounces of gold with cash costs of $1,450 to $1,550 per oz and AISC of $2,175 to $2,275 per oz. Updated projections of sustaining expenditures at Aurizona are $58 million in 2024, primarily relating to capitalized waste stripping. Updated projections of non-sustaining expenditures at Aurizona of $11 million in 2024 primarily relate to infrastructure and engineering for planned underground development.

AISC cost guidance for Santa Luz has been increased to $1,900 to $2,000 per oz, reflecting higher anticipated sustaining expenditures of $21 million in 2024, primarily relating to capitalized waste stripping and additional plant equipment upgrades.

RDM sustaining expenditures decreased compared to original guidance due to lower anticipated sustaining expenditures related to the new rental fleet.

Guidance for the other mines remains as originally disclosed on February 16, 2024. After the updates, consolidated production for 2024 is forecast at 655,000 to 750,000 oz of gold (compared to the original forecast of 660,000 to 750,000 oz of gold).

As disclosed on February 16, 2024, cost and production guidance for Los Filos is subject to the successful execution of new social and land access agreements with local community stakeholders and landowners. The Los Filos team is in a dialogue process with the three communities where the mine is located, with the goal of reaching new land access agreements with each of them in a collaborative and transparent way. These new agreements are necessary to help ensure the long-term economic and investment viability of the mine, including the addition of a new CIL processing plant. If the Company is unable to satisfactorily complete these agreements, the Company will re-evaluate the current operation and may elect to cease operations. Accordingly, Los Filos production and cost guidance for 2024 remains subject to change.

The Company may revise guidance during the year to reflect changes to expected results.

NON-IFRS MEASURES

This news release refers to cash costs, cash costs per oz sold, AISC, AISC per oz sold, AISC contribution margin, adjusted net income, adjusted EPS, mine-site free cash flow, adjusted EBITDA, net debt, and sustaining capital expenditures that are measures with no standardized meaning under IFRS, i.e. they are non-IFRS measures, and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Their measurement and presentation is consistently prepared and is intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. Numbers presented in the tables below may not sum due to rounding.

Cash Costs and Cash Costs per oz Sold

Cash costs is a common financial performance measure in the gold mining industry; however, it has no standard meaning under IFRS. The Company reports total cash costs on a per oz sold basis. The Company believes that, in addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with IFRS, certain investors use this information to evaluate the Company's performance and ability to generate operating income and cash flow from mining operations. Cash costs are calculated as mine site operating costs and are net of silver revenue. Cash costs are divided by ounces sold to arrive at cash costs per oz sold. In calculating cash costs, the Company deducts silver revenue as it considers the cost to produce the gold is reduced as a result of the by-product sales incidental to the gold production process, thereby allowing management and other stakeholders to assess the net costs of gold production. The measure is not necessarily indicative of cash flow from operations under IFRS or operating costs presented under IFRS.

AISC per oz Sold

The Company uses AISC per oz of gold sold to measure performance. The methodology for calculating AISC was developed internally and is calculated below. Current IFRS measures used in the gold industry, such as operating expenses, do not capture all of the expenditures incurred to discover, develop and sustain gold production. The Company believes the AISC measure provides further transparency into costs associated with producing gold and will assist analysts, investors and other stakeholders of the Company in assessing its operating performance, its ability to generate free cash flow from current operations and its overall value. AISC includes cash costs (described above) and also includes sustaining capital expenditures (described in following section), sustaining lease payments, reclamation cost accretion and amortization and exploration and evaluation costs. This measure seeks to reflect the full cost of gold production from current operations, therefore, expansionary capital and non-sustaining expenditures are excluded.

Prior to Q2 2023, the Company's calculation of cash costs included the principal portion of sustaining lease payments. Commencing in Q2 2023, to improve the comparability of the Company's financial performance measures with its peers and align to the standards outlined by the World Gold Council, the Company has excluded sustaining lease payments from its calculation of cash costs and has included them as a component of AISC. The calculations of cash costs and AISC for comparative periods have been adjusted to conform with the current methodology and are different from the measures previously reported.

Sustaining Capital and Sustaining Expenditures

Sustaining expenditures are defined as those expenditures which do not increase annual gold ounce production at a mine site and excludes all expenditures at the Company's projects and certain expenditures at the Company's operating sites which are deemed expansionary. Sustaining capital can include, but are not limited to, capitalized stripping costs at open pit mines, underground mine development, mining and milling equipment, and TSF raises. Sustaining expenditures includes sustaining capital, sustaining lease payments, reclamation expense and sustaining exploration expense.

The following table provides a reconciliation of sustaining expenditures to the Company's total expenditures for continuing operations:

		Three months ended										Six months ended

Total Mine-Site Free Cash Flow

Mine-site free cash flow is a non-IFRS financial performance measure. The Company believes this measure is a useful indicator of its ability to operate without reliance on additional borrowing or usage of existing cash. In calculating total mine-site free cash flow, the Company excludes the impact of fair value adjustments on acquired inventories as these adjustments do not impact cash flow from operating mine sites. Mine-site free cash flow is intended to provide additional information only and does not have any standardized meaning under IFRS and may not be comparable to similar measures of performance presented by other mining companies. Mine-site free cash flow should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS.

In Q4 2023, the Company revised the calculation to include changes in non-cash working capital and present mine-site free cash flow after changes in non-cash working capital. The Company believes it is useful to provide mine-site free cash flow before and after changes in non-cash working capital as working capital can fluctuate significantly between periods due to numerous factors. 

The following table provides a reconciliation of mine-site free cash flow to the most directly comparable IFRS measure on an aggregate basis:

		Three months ended										Six months ended
$'s in millions		June 30, 2024			March 31, 2024			June 30, 2023				June 30, 2024			June 30, 2023

⁽¹⁾ Includes taxes paid and proceeds from gold prepayments that are not factored into mine-site free cash flow and are included in operating cash flow before non-cash changes in working capital in the statement of cash flows.

AISC Contribution Margin, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

The Company believes that, in addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with IFRS, certain investors and other stakeholders use AISC contribution margin, AISC contribution margin per gold ounce sold, EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA to evaluate the Company's performance and ability to generate cash flows and service debt.

AISC contribution margin is defined as revenue less AISC. EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, and amortization, adjusted to exclude specific items that are significant but not reflective of the underlying operating performance of the Company, such as the impact of fair value changes of warrants, foreign exchange contracts and gold contracts; unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses, transaction costs, and non-cash share-based compensation expense. It is also adjusted to exclude items whose timing or amount cannot be reasonably estimated in advance or that are not considered representative of core operating performance, such as impairments and gains and losses on disposals of assets.

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS

Adjusted net income and adjusted EPS are used by management and investors to measure the underlying operating performance of the Company. Adjusted net income is defined as net income adjusted to exclude specific items that are significant but not reflective of the underlying operating performance of the Company, such as the impact of fair value changes in the value of warrants, foreign exchange contracts and gold contracts, unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses, and non-cash share-based compensation expense. It is also adjusted to exclude items whose timing or amount cannot be reasonably estimated in advance or that are not considered representative of core operating performance, such as impairments and gains and losses on disposals of assets. Adjusted net income per share amounts are calculated using the weighted average number of shares outstanding on a basic and diluted basis as determined by IFRS.

Net Debt

The Company believes that in addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with IFRS, the Company and certain investors and analysts use net debt to evaluate the Company's performance. Net debt does not have any standardized meaning prescribed under IFRS, and therefore it may not be comparable to similar measures employed by other companies. This measure is intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performances prepared in accordance with IFRS. Net debt is calculated as the sum of the current and non-current portions of loans and borrowings, net of the cash and cash equivalent balance as at the balance sheet date. A reconciliation of net debt is provided below.

$'s in millions		June 30, 2024			March 31, 2024			December 31, 2023
Current portion of loans and borrowings	$	138.0		$	275.6		$	138.6
