Seabridge Gold Secures $100M Credit Facility to Fund KSM Summer Work
SA sits 64% above its 52-week low of $15.11.
Summary
Seabridge Gold has arranged a US$100 million unsecured loan from a strategic investor to fund its 2026 summer work programs at the KSM project in British Columbia. The facility carries a 7% interest rate, compounded monthly, and matures on December 31, 2026. Draws are in minimum $10 million increments, with repayment possible in cash or, under certain conditions, in common shares. This financing follows the recent spin-out of the Courageous Lake project and the exhaustion of the company's ATM program, providing fresh liquidity for critical feasibility-level work including road construction, drilling, and data collection. The involvement of a strategic investor and the flexible repayment terms suggest confidence in KSM's advancement, though no amounts have been drawn yet. The loan strengthens the balance sheet ahead of a capital-intensive field season, reducing near-term dilution risk.
