Vancouver, July 28, 2020 - Starcore International Mines Ltd. (TSX: SAM) (OTCQB: SHVLF) (the "Company") has filed the results for the year end dated April 30, 2020 for the Company and its mining operations in Queretaro, Mexico.

"We have come through a very challenging fourth quarter managing COVID-19 concerns with our operations and, at the same time, paying off $4.5million in debt and interest over the last 4 months from cash flow," reported Robert Eadie, C.E.O. and President of the Company. "The very favourable Gold and Silver prices that we are experiencing, coupled with our significant cost savings at the mine from planned reductions, efficiencies and favourable exchange rates, sets the stage for much improved cash flow in the next fiscal year."

The Corporation uses this non-GAAP measure which can also be helpful to investors as it provides a result which can be compared with the Corporation market share price.

(2) EBITDA MARGIN is a measurement of a company's operating profitability calculated as EBITDA divided by total revenue. EBITDA MARGIN is a non-GAAP financial performance measure with no standard definition under IFRS. It is therefore possible that this measure could not be comparable with a similar measure of another Corporation. The Corporation uses this non-GAAP measure which can also be helpful to investors as it provides a result which can be compared with the Corporation market share price.
