"Our portfolio of high-quality assets continued to deliver exceptional results this quarter, generating record free cash flow, more than doubling the prior quarter. This performance reflects the strength of the gold price environment, our disciplined cost management and the consistency of our operational execution," said
Second quarter 2025 highlights:
-
Strong quarterly gold production and cost performance – Payable gold production1 was 866,029 ounces at production costs per ounce of
$911 , total cash costs per ounce2 of$933 and all-in sustaining costs ("AISC") per ounce2 of$1,289 . The strong operational performance in the second quarter of 2025 was led byCanadian Malartic , LaRonde, Macassa andFosterville . At mid-year, the Company has achieved approximately 51% of the mid-point of its full-year gold production guidance, while achieving total cash costs per ounce below the mid-point of guidance, despite higher royalty costs resulting from higher gold prices -
Record quarterly adjusted net income and free cash flow – The Company reported quarterly net income of
$1,069 million or$2.13 per share and record adjusted net income3 of$976 million or$1.94 per share. The Company generated cash provided by operating activities of$1,845 million or$3.67 per share ($1,332 million or$2.65 per share of cash provided by operating activities before changes in non-cash components of working capital4) and record free cash flow4 of$1,305 million or$2.60 per share ($792 million or$1.58 per share of free cash flow before changes in non-cash components of working capital4) -
2025 gold production and cost guidance reiterated – Full year expected payable gold production in 2025 remains unchanged at 3.3 to 3.5 million ounces, with total cash costs per ounce and AISC per ounce in 2025 unchanged at
$915 to$965 and$1,250 to$1,300 , respectively. Total capital expenditures (excluding capitalized exploration) for 2025 remain estimated to be between$1.75 billion to$1.95 billion and capitalized exploration remains expected to be between$290 and$310 million . Further details are set out in the 2025 Guidance Summary section below -
Balance sheet strengthened by transition to net cash position and debt redemption – The Company transitioned to a net cash5 position of
$963 million as atJune 30, 2025 as a result of the increase in its cash position by$419 million to$1,558 million and the reduction of long-term debt by$550 million to$595 million . OnJune 30, 2025 , the Company repaid$40 million of the 2017 Series A 4.42% senior notes at maturity and also redeemed the remaining outstanding principal of$260 million of the 2017 senior notes and$250 million of the 2016 senior notes with interest rates ranging from 4.64% to 4.94%. The aggregate payments were comprised of$40 million of the current portion of long-term debt and$510 million of long-term debt -
Increased quarterly share repurchases demonstrate continued focus on shareholder returns – A quarterly dividend of
$0.40 per share has been declared. In addition, the Company repurchased 836,488 common shares during the quarter at an average share price of$119.47 for aggregate consideration of$100 million under its normal course issuer bid ("NCIB"). The NCIB was renewed inMay 2025 with an increased purchase limit of up to$1 billion of common shares -
Update on key value drivers and pipeline projects
- Canadian Malartic – In the second quarter of 2025, total development reached a quarterly record of 4,850 metres. This included the ramp reaching the mid-shaft loading station at level 102, advancement of the ramp toward shaft bottom at a depth of 1,179 metres, and continued development of the East Gouldie production levels in preparation for initial production in the second half of 2026. Excavation of the mid-shaft loading station between levels 102 and 114 progressed, with steel installation underway and completion expected in the third quarter of 2025. The temporary service hoist ramped up to its design hoisting capacity of 3,500 tonnes per day ("tpd"). Exploration drilling continued to extend the East Gouldie deposit to the east in both the upper and lower portions of the deposit. Regional exploration is prioritizing the newly acquired Marban project including pit design optimization and potential lateral extension of the Marban deposit
-
Detour Lake – In the second quarter of 2025, the Company initiated development of the exploration ramp with the mobilization of the contractor, completion of the ramp portal and the first blast for the exploration ramp that occurred onJuly 4, 2025 . Exploration drilling into the high-grade corridor in theWest Pit zone further defined the high-grade domains that could potentially be mined early in the underground project, with highlight intercepts of 3.4 grams per tonne ("g/t") gold over 67.2 metres at 416 metres depth and 2.3 g/t gold over 42.6 metres at 525 metres depth. Drilling into the West Extension zone at underground depths further confirmed the grades and continuity of mineralization in the western plunge of the deposit - Upper Beaver – In the second quarter of 2025, structural steel installation for the shaft head frame progressed and cladding installation began. In addition, installation of the hoists for service and potential production commenced. At the ramp portal, supporting infrastructure was completed, with excavation of the exploration ramp now expected to begin in the third quarter of 2025
-
Hope Bay – In the second quarter of 2025, site infrastructure upgrades advanced, including dismantling major components of the existing mill and the refurbishment of the first wing at the Doris camp. In the second quarter of 2025, exploration drilling atHope Bay totalled 39,390 metres (68,800 metres year-to-date), with a continued focus on mineral resource expansion and conversion of the Patch 7 and Suluk zones in theMadrid deposit. Recent drilling results, including 25.7 g/t gold over 8.4 metres at 754 metres depth in one of the deepest intercepts of the Patch 7 zone to date, continue to support the potential for mineral resource expansion at depth and along strike -
San Nicolas project – In the second quarter of 2025,Minas de San Nicolas continued working on a feasibility study, with completion expected late in 2025.Minas de San Nicolas received an exploration permit authorizing additional drill pads across the property and the joint venture approved supplemental drilling activities focused on geotechnical, hydrological, and geological evaluation in proximity to the projected mine area

***Production costs per ounce, total cash costs per ounce and AISC per ounce are reported on a per ounce of gold produced basis. |
Gold Production
- Second Quarter and First Six Months of 2025 – Gold production decreased when compared to the prior-year periods primarily due to lower production from Meadowbank (longer than expected Caribou migration affecting both mining and milling operations),
Fosterville (lower grade and throughput) andCanadian Malartic (lower throughput), partially offset by higher production at Macassa and LaRonde (higher grades)
Production Costs per Ounce
- Second Quarter and First Six Months of 2025 – Production costs per ounce increased when compared to the prior-year periods primarily due to higher royalties resulting from higher gold prices and lower production, partially offset by the benefit of the weaker Canadian dollar during both periods
Total Cash Costs per Ounce
- Second Quarter and First Six Months of 2025 – Total cash costs per ounce increased when compared to the prior-year periods primarily due to the reasons described above for the increase in production costs per ounce during both periods
AISC per Ounce
- Second Quarter and First Six Months of 2025 – AISC per ounce increased when compared to the prior-year periods due to the reasons described above for the increase in total cash costs per ounce, higher sustaining capital expenditures primarily at Meadowbank and
Fosterville and higher general and administrative expenses during both periods
See the Company's Management Discussion and Analysis for the second quarter of 2025 (the "MD&A") under the caption "Financial and Operating Results" for additional variance analysis on gold production, production costs, minesite costs per tonne and total cash costs per ounce compared to the prior-year periods.

Net Income
- Second Quarter of 2025
- Net income increased when compared to the prior-year period primarily due to record operating margins resulting from higher realized gold prices and gains on derivative financial instruments (compared to losses in the prior-year period), partially offset by higher income and mining taxes expense in the current period
- Net income of
$1,069 million ($2.13 per share) includes the following items (net of tax): net gains on derivative financial instruments of$83 million ($0.17 per share), foreign currency translation gains on deferred tax liabilities and other tax adjustments of$18 million ($0.04 per share), foreign exchange gains of$12 million ($0.02 per share per share), net asset disposal losses of$4 million ($0.01 per share), debt extinguishment costs of$4 million ($0.01 per share) and reclamation and other adjustments totalling$12 million (0.02 per share). Excluding these items results in adjusted net income of$976 million or$1.94 per share
- First Six Months of 2025 – Net income increased when compared to the prior-year period primarily due to record operating margins resulting from higher realized gold prices and gains on derivative financial instruments (compared to losses in the prior-year period), partially offset by higher income and mining taxes expense in the current period
Adjusted EBITDA
- Second Quarter and First Six Months of 2025 – Adjusted EBITDA increased when compared to the prior-year period primarily due to higher mine operating margins from higher realized gold prices, partially offset by lower gold sales, higher production costs and higher general and administrative expenses
Cash Provided by Operating Activities
- Second Quarter and First Six Months of 2025 – Cash provided by operating activities and cash provided by operating activities before changes in non-cash working capital balances increased when compared to the prior-year periods primarily due to the reasons described above related to the increases in adjusted EBITDA. Cash provided by operating activities benefited from favourable changes in non-cash working capital balances, primarily due to an increase in the accrued taxes payable as a result of higher operating margins
Free Cash Flow Before Changes in Non-cash Working Capital Balances
- Second Quarter and First Six Months of 2025 – Free cash flow before changes in non-cash working capital balances increased when compared to the prior-year periods due to the reasons described above related to cash provided by operating activities, partially offset by higher additions to property, plant and mine development
Capital Expenditures
In the second quarter of 2025, capital expenditures were

Update on Key Value Drivers and Pipeline Projects
The Company continues to advance the transition to underground mining with the construction of the Odyssey mine and work on several opportunities with a vision to potentially grow annual production at
Odyssey
Mine development continued to advance ahead of schedule in the second quarter of 2025, with a record 4,850 metres completed. A key milestone was achieved as the ramp reached the mid-shaft loading station at level 102. The breakthrough to the shaft is scheduled for the third quarter of 2025, following the completion of the fresh air ventilation doors at level 102. The main ramp toward shaft bottom progressed to a depth of 1,019 metres as at
In the second quarter of 2025, excavation and construction of the mid-shaft loading station advanced, with excavation of the ore grizzly at level 102 and the loading pocket at level 112 completed. Steel installation between levels 102 and 112 is progressing well, with completion expected in the third quarter of 2025. Ramp excavation connecting level 102 to the crusher room (level 106) and loading station (level 112) is underway, with completion expected in the fourth quarter of 2025. As at
Construction activities of key surface infrastructure progressed on schedule and on budget. At the operational complex, expected to be completed in the first quarter of 2026, interior architectural, mechanical, and electrical installations are underway. Shaft ventilation system installation at the main hoist building is progressing on schedule, with completion expected in the third quarter of 2025. The fabrication of the production hoist is underway in
Building on continued exploration success at depth and the expansion of the mineral resource at East Gouldie, the Company is evaluating opportunities to enhance operational efficiency over the medium to long term. One option under consideration is a 70-metre extension of Shaft #1 to a depth of 1,870 metres. This would involve relocating the loading station at shaft bottom to level 181 from level 174 and adding a loading station at level 146. This potential optimization could improve operational flexibility and efficiency in the early 2030s, reduce reliance on truck haulage, and further unlock the significant exploration potential at depth. This initiative is being assessed in parallel with the potential development of a second shaft at Odyssey.
In exploration drilling at the Odyssey mine and surrounding near-mine exploration properties during the second quarter of 2025, 13 underground rigs and 13 surface rigs drilled a total of 78,640 metres (132,016 metres year-to-date). The drilling program targeted the eastern and depth extensions of the East Gouldie deposit, the new Eclipse zone and portions of the Odyssey deposit near the Odyssey shaft. Regional exploration was focused on the 16-kilometre long land package around the mine, with additional activities conducted on the recently acquired Marban land package located immediately northeast of the
Drilling into the Lower East extension of the East Gouldie deposit beyond the current mineralized envelope was highlighted by hole MEX24-322WAZA intersecting 3.4 g/t gold over 36.2 metres at 1,947 metres depth and hole MEX24-322WBZ intersecting 3.5 g/t gold over 12.9 metres at 1,993 metres depth and 3.5 g/t gold over 19.2 metres at 2,013 metres depth, representing the deepest intersection of East Gouldie reported to date. These results extend East Gouldie at depth and to the east and are expected to contribute additional inferred mineral resources in this portion of the deposit at year-end 2025.
Hole MEX25-329 intersected the sub-parallel Eclipse zone approximately 300 metres to the north of East Gouldie, returning 4.3 g/t gold over 7.2 metres at 1,507 metres depth and 3.8 g/t gold over 14.0 metres at 1,519 metres depth, including 10.3 g/t gold over 2.5 metres at 1,518 metres depth. Further drilling targeting the Eclipse zone is ongoing to improve the geological understanding of the zone and its potential to add significant mineral resources near planned mine infrastructure.
Drilling in the Upper East extension of East Gouldie near the current shaft and ramp infrastructure was highlighted by hole UGEG-075-046 intersecting 5.7 g/t gold over 17.7 metres at 882 metres depth, including 8.9 g/t gold over 7.7 metres at 882 metres depth. The Company believes this area has the potential to add indicated mineral resources and potentially mineral reserves to East Gouldie by year-end.
Drilling into the Odyssey deposit during the second quarter returned highlights that included: hole UGOD-046-017 intersecting 4.6 g/t gold over 13.1 metres at 408 metres depth in the Odyssey North zone; hole UGOD-041-060 intersecting 9.1 g/t gold over 10.5 metres (core length) at 394 metres depth and hole UGOD-041-063 intersecting 13.8 g/t gold over 6.0 metres (core length) at 387 metres depth, both within the Odyssey internal zones; and, in the eastern extension of the Odyssey South zone, hole UGOD-016-311 intersecting 4.8 g/t gold over 16.1 metres at 403 metres depth, including 8.0 g/t gold over 6.9 metres at 402 metres depth, and hole MEV25-301 intersecting 4.9 g/t gold over 27.0 metres (core length) at 396 metres depth.
In regional exploration, testing for the potential extension of the Keel structure at depth in the East Gouldie deposit was highlighted by hole CHL25-2949 intersecting 2.8 g/t gold over 17.0 metres at 1,756 metres depth, approximately 150 metres below the East Gouldie mineralized envelope.

Regional Highlights
- Gold production in the quarter was higher than planned primarily as a result of higher grades at the LaRonde mine and the Barnat pit at
Canadian Malartic , partially offset by slightly lower volume milled. The higher gold grades at LaRonde were driven by positive grade reconciliation in three stopes, each mined in a distinct area (East mine, West mine and the 11-3 zone). The higher gold grades atCanadian Malartic were a result of the continued mining of mineralized zones near historical underground stopes in the Barnat pit that returned higher grades than anticipated - At LaRonde, a planned shutdown of approximately 10 days was completed to replace the liners at the SAG mill and for maintenance of the drystack filtration plant. Concurrently, maintenance work was also carried out on the underground rock handling network
- At LZ5, the Company continued its automation initiatives and achieved its automation targets. Approximately 24% of the ore hauled to surface was moved using automated scoops and trucks, contributing to the strong overall performance of the site at an average of 3,630 tpd, above the production target of 3,500 tpd for the second quarter of 2025
- At Canadian Malartic, in-pit tailings deposition ramped up to its design capacity in the second quarter of 2025
- At Odyssey, total development during the quarter was a record at approximately 4,850 metres. Gold production was a quarterly record at approximately 26,600 ounces driven by higher grades and ore mined of approximately 3,970 tpd compared to the target of 3,500 tpd. The ramp-up of the service hoist to its design hoisting capacity of 3,500 tpd and the increased use of remote-operated and automated equipment (including scoops, trucks, jumbos and cable bolters) were the main drivers for exceeding the development and production targets in the second quarter of 2025
- At Goldex, record tonnage was processed during the second quarter of 2025 at approximately 819,000 tonnes, driven by record tonnage processed from Akasaba West during
April 2025 . The target milling rate of 1,750 tpd from Akasaba West was exceeded, averaging 2,864 tpd for the quarter - Canadian Malartic has planned quarterly shutdowns in 2025 of four to five days for regular maintenance at the mill
- An update on Odyssey and the "fill-the-mill" strategy is set out in the Update on Key Value Drivers and Pipeline Projects section above

Regional Highlights
- Gold production in the quarter was in line with plan driven by strong quarterly production at Macassa, offsetting lower production at
Detour Lake . Gold production at Macassa was higher than planned as a result of positive grade reconciliation and a change in mine sequencing. AtDetour Lake , gold production was affected by lower gold grades than anticipated. Mining during the first half of 2025 took place within a low-grade domain, occasionally resulting in localized negative ore tonnes reconciliation. To offset this shortfall in ore tonnes, the mill feed was supplemented with the low-grade stockpile. Mining will remain in this low-grade domain through the third quarter, with the grade profile expected to improve in the fourth quarter of 2025 - At
Detour Lake , gold production for first half of 2025 was lower than planned and as a result, the Company expects gold production for the full year 2025 to be around the lower end of the production guidance range of 705,000 to 735,000 ounces - At Macassa, construction of the new paste plant continued during the second quarter of 2025 and is scheduled to be commissioned in the third quarter of 2025
-
Detour Lake has scheduled a major shutdown of seven days for regular mill maintenance in the fourth quarter of 2025. Macassa has scheduled a major shutdown of five days for the primary grinding mill liner replacement, the annual overhaul of the crusher and other regular mill maintenance in the fourth quarter of 2025 - Updates on the

Regional Highlights
- Gold production in the quarter was lower than planned as a result of a longer than expected caribou migration. Both the mining and milling operations at Meliadine and Meadowbank were affected by the extended migration despite typical migration patterns being incorporated in the production plans. Wildlife management is a priority for the Company and it continues to work with stakeholders in
Nunavut to optimize solutions to safeguard wildlife and reduce production disruptions - At Meliadine, gold production was affected by the extended caribou migration of 11 days compared to a plan of 7 days and an unplanned mill shutdown, in addition to the scheduled mill shutdown. Ore hauling during the quarter was lower than planned due to the extended caribou migration, while record development in April resulted in total quarterly development of approximately 3,890 metres, which was approximately 18% above plan
- At Meadowbank, gold production was affected by the extended caribou migration, which led to road closures between Amaruq and Meadowbank for 41 days and a mill shutdown lasting 27 days — both significantly longer than the 27-day and 9-day durations planned, respectively — reducing the volume of material hauled from the pit and between sites, resulting in lower volume processed during the quarter
- Despite the weaker than planned gold production during the second quarter of 2025, guidance for both Meliadine and Meadowbank remains unchanged
- During the second quarter of 2025, the Company revised its estimate of the Meadowbank asset retirement obligation ("ARO"), recognized on the financial statements as a result of the completion of an internal evaluation. The ARO increased by approximately
$198 million with a corresponding adjustment to the Meadowbank mining asset on the Company's balance sheet. The increase in the ARO is primarily driven by revised estimates for dismantling infrastructure, transportation and fuel costs, and expected operating costs during the closure period. These updates reflect the scale of the operational footprint and logistical requirements at Meadowbank. The ARO-related costs are expected to be tax-deductible at an estimated rate of approximately 26%. As atJune 30, 2025 , the ARO liability was approximately$433 million . The Company continues to evaluate opportunities to optimize and reduce the Meadowbank ARO estimate, including the potential to integrate a life of mine extension beyond 2028 - Meliadine has scheduled quarterly shutdowns lasting three to six days for regular mill maintenance. Meadowbank has a scheduled major shutdown, lasting five days, to replace the SAG and ball mill liners and complete other regular mill maintenance in the fourth quarter of 2025

Highlights
- Gold production in the quarter was higher than planned as a result of higher grades due to a change in mining sequence at
Phoenix and higher than anticipated grades at Robbins Hill and Harrier, partially offset by lower mill throughput - The Company is implementing an upgrade of the primary ventilation system to sustain the mining rate in the Lower Phoenix zones in future years. The development of the primary fan chambers was completed in the second quarter of 2025 with the work required for the power connection and construction ongoing in the third and fourth quarters of 2025. Commissioning of the primary fans is expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2025

Highlights
- Gold production in the quarter was in line with plan as Kittila completed an 11-day scheduled shutdown for regular maintenance on the autoclave in the second quarter of 2025
- The cost performance of the underground mine and mill continued to realize the benefits of continuous improvement initiatives, with minesite costs per tonne in the first half of 2025 decreasing by approximately 4%, from €106 to €102 per tonne, when compared to the prior-year period. This decrease was achieved despite the increase in royalty costs per tonne of approximately €2 due to higher gold prices in the first half of 2025 compared to the prior-year period. Initiatives that resulted in lower costs included the internalization of work previously done by contractors and hoisting waste rock through the shaft, which resulted in the reduction in the number of trucks used to haul waste
Exploration Highlights
- Exploration drilling at Kittila during the second quarter of 2025 totalled 18,100 metres (34,300 metres year-to-date) and intersected wide, high-grade mineralization at the bottom of the Main zone in the Rimpi Deep area, with highlights from the first half of 2025 including hole ROD24-700G intersecting 11.5 g/t gold over 15.9 metres at 1,464 metres depth; hole ROD24-700B intersecting 12.2 g/t gold over 12.9 metres at 1,457 metres depth; and hole ROD24-700C intersecting 10.4 g/t gold over 10.8 metres at 1,444 metres depth
- The Company expects these results to have a positive impact on mineral reserve replacement at year-end 2025
- Selected recent drill intersections from the first half of 2025 from the Main and Sisar zones at Kittila are set out in the composite longitudinal section below and in Appendix A

Highlights
- In early
July 2025 , a disagreement among local communities regarding the distribution of hauling work at Cubiro led to a short-term blockage of road access toPinos Altos . In response, the Company suspended operations for four days in accordance with its safety protocols to protect personnel and infrastructure. Operations have been fully restored

Note Regarding Certain Measures of Performance
This news release discloses certain financial performance measures and ratios, including "total cash costs per ounce", "minesite costs per tonne", "all-in sustaining costs per ounce" (or "AISC per ounce"), "adjusted net income", "adjusted net income per share", "cash provided by operating activities before changes in non-cash components of working capital", "cash provided by operating activities before changes in non-cash components of working capital per share", "EBITDA" which means earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, "adjusted EBITDA", "free cash flow", "free cash flow before changes in non-cash components of working capital", "operating margin", "sustaining capital expenditures", "development capital expenditures", "sustaining capitalized exploration", "development capitalized exploration" and "net cash (debt)", as well as, for certain of these measures their related per share ratios that are not standardized measures under IFRS Accounting Standards. These measures and ratios may not be comparable to similar measures and ratios reported by other gold producers and should be considered together with other data prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards. The Company has changed the label for the non-GAAP measure "net debt" to "net cash (debt)" as the Company believes that reporting a positive net cash position is more clear and understandable to readers than a negative net debt position. The Company's method of calculating this non-GAAP measure has not changed. See below for a reconciliation of these measures to the most directly comparable financial information reported in the condensed interim consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards.
Total cash costs per ounce and minesite costs per tonne
Total cash costs per ounce is calculated on a per ounce of gold produced basis and is reported on both a by-product basis (deducting by-product metal revenues from production costs) and a co-product basis (without deducting by-product metal revenues). Total cash costs per ounce on a by-product basis is calculated by adjusting production costs as recorded in the condensed interim consolidated statements of income for by-product revenues, inventory production costs, the impact of purchase price allocation in connection with mergers and acquisitions on inventory accounting, realized gains and losses on hedges of production costs and other adjustments, which include the costs associated with a 5% in-kind royalty paid in respect of certain portions of
Total cash costs per ounce is intended to provide investors with information about the cash-generating capabilities of the Company's mining operations. Management also uses these measures to, and believes they are useful to investors so investors can, understand and monitor the performance of the Company's mining operations. The Company believes that total cash costs per ounce is useful to help investors understand the costs associated with producing gold and the economics of gold mining. As market prices for gold are quoted on a per ounce basis, using the total cash costs per ounce on a by-product basis measure allows management and investors to assess a mine's cash-generating capabilities at various gold prices. Management is aware, and investors should note, that these per ounce measures of performance can be affected by fluctuations in exchange rates and, in the case of total cash costs per ounce on a by-product basis, by-product metal prices. Management compensates for these inherent limitations by using, and investors should also consider using, these measures in conjunction with data prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards and minesite costs per tonne as these measures are not necessarily indicative of operating costs or cash flow measures prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards. Management also performs sensitivity analyses in order to quantify the effects of fluctuating metal prices and exchange rates.
Agnico Eagle's primary business is gold production and the focus of its current operations and future development is on maximizing returns from gold production, with other metal production being incidental to the gold production process. Accordingly, all metals other than gold are considered by-products.
Unless otherwise indicated, total cash costs per ounce is reported on a by-product basis. Total cash costs per ounce is reported on a by-product basis because (i) the majority of the Company's revenues are from gold, (ii) the Company mines ore, which contains gold, silver, zinc, copper and other metals, (iii) it is not possible to specifically assign all costs to revenues from the gold, silver, zinc, copper and other metals the Company produces, (iv) it is a method used by management and the Board of Directors to monitor operations, and (v) many other gold producers disclose similar measures on a by-product rather than a co-product basis.
Minesite costs per tonne are calculated by adjusting production costs as recorded in the condensed interim consolidated statements of income for inventory production costs and other adjustments, and then dividing by tonnage of ore processed. As the total cash costs per ounce can be affected by fluctuations in by–product metal prices and foreign exchange rates, management believes that minesite costs per tonne is useful to investors in providing additional information regarding the performance of mining operations, eliminating the impact of varying production levels. Management also uses this measure to determine the economic viability of mining blocks. As each mining block is evaluated based on the net realizable value of each tonne mined, in order to be economically viable the estimated revenue on a per tonne basis must be in excess of the minesite costs per tonne. Management is aware, and investors should note, that this per tonne measure of performance can be affected by fluctuations in processing levels. This inherent limitation may be partially mitigated by using this measure in conjunction with production costs and other data prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards.

All-in sustaining costs per ounce
All-in sustaining costs per ounce (also referred to as "AISC per ounce") on a by-product basis is calculated as the aggregate of total cash costs on a by-product basis, sustaining capital expenditures (including capitalized exploration), general and administrative expenses (including stock options), lease payments related to sustaining assets and reclamation expenses, and then dividing by the number of ounces of gold produced. These additional costs reflect the additional expenditures that are required to be made to maintain current production levels. The AISC per ounce on a co-product basis is calculated in the same manner as the AISC per ounce on a by-product basis, except that the total cash costs on a co-product basis are used, meaning no adjustment is made for by-product metal revenues. Investors should note that AISC per ounce is not reflective of all cash expenditures as it does not include income tax payments, interest costs or dividend payments, nor does it include non-cash expenditures, such as depreciation and amortization. Unless otherwise indicated, all-in sustaining costs per ounce is reported on a by-product basis (see "Reconciliation of Production Costs to Total Cash Costs per Ounce by Mine" for a discussion of regarding the Company's use of by-product basis reporting).
Management believes that AISC per ounce is useful to investors as it reflects total sustaining expenditures of producing and selling an ounce of gold while maintaining current operations and, as such, provides useful information about operating performance. Management is aware, and investors should note, that these per ounce measures of performance can be affected by fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and, in the case of AISC per ounce on a by-product basis, by-product metal prices. Management compensates for these inherent limitations by using, and investors should also consider using, these measures in conjunction with data prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards and minesite costs per tonne, as this measure is not necessarily indicative of operating costs or cash flow measures prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards.
The Company follows the guidance on calculation of AISC per ounce released by the

Adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share
Adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share are calculated by adjusting the net income as recorded in the condensed interim consolidated statements of income for the effects of certain items that the Company believes are not reflective of the Company's underlying performance for the reporting period. Adjusted net income is calculated by adjusting net income for items such as foreign currency translation gains or losses, realized and unrealized gains or losses on derivative financial instruments, severance and transaction costs related to acquisitions, revaluation gains and losses, environmental remediation, gains or losses on the disposal of assets, purchase price allocations to inventory, impairment loss charges and reversals, retroactive payments, and income and mining taxes adjustments. Adjusted net income per share is calculated by dividing adjusted net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding on a basic and diluted basis.
The Company believes that these generally accepted industry measures are useful to investors in that they allow for the evaluation of the results of continuing operations and in making comparisons between periods. Adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share are intended to provide investors with information about the Company's continuing income generating capabilities from its core mining business, excluding the above adjustments, which the Company believes are not reflective of operational performance. Management uses this measure to, and believes it is useful to investors so they can, understand and monitor for the operating performance of the Company in conjunction with other data prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards.

EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA
EBITDA is calculated by adjusting net income for finance costs, amortization of property, plant and mine development and income and mining tax expense line items as reported in the condensed interim consolidated statements of income.
Adjusted EBITDA removes the effects of certain items that the Company believes are not reflective of the Company's underlying performance for the reporting period. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by adjusting the EBITDA calculation for items such as foreign currency translation gains or losses, realized and unrealized gains or losses on derivative financial instruments, severance and transaction costs related to acquisitions, revaluation gains and losses, environmental remediation, gains or losses on the disposal of assets, purchase price allocations to inventory, impairment loss charges and reversals, retroactive payments, and income and mining taxes adjustments.
The Company believes that these generally accepted industry measures are useful in that they allow for the evaluation of the cash generating capability of the Company to fund its working capital, capital expenditure and debt repayments. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are intended to provide investors with information about the Company's continuing cash generating capability from its core mining business, excluding the above adjustments, which management believes are not reflective of operational performance. Management uses these measures to, and believes it is useful to investors so they can, understand and monitor the cash generating capability of the Company in conjunction with other data prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards.

Cash provided by operating activities before changes in non-cash components of working capital and its per share ratio
Cash provided by operating activities before changes in non-cash components of working capital is calculated by adjusting the cash provided by operating activities as shown in the condensed interim consolidated statements of cash flows for the effects of changes in non-cash components of working capital such as income taxes, inventories, other current assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and interest payable. The per share ratio is calculated by dividing cash provided by operating activities before changes in non-cash components of working capital by the weighted average number of shares outstanding on a basic basis. The Company believes that changes in working capital can be volatile due to numerous factors, including the timing of payments. Management uses these measures to, and believes they are useful to investors so they can, assess the underlying operating cash flow performance and future operating cash flow generating capabilities of the Company in conjunction with other data prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards. A reconciliation of these measures to the nearest IFRS Accounting Standards measure is provided below.
Free cash flow and free cash flow before changes in non-cash components of working capital
Free cash flow is calculated by deducting additions to property, plant and mine development from the cash provided by operating activities line item as recorded in the condensed interim consolidated statements of cash flows.
Free cash flow before changes in non-cash components of working capital is calculated by excluding items such as the effect of changes in non-cash components of working capital from free cash flow, which includes income taxes, inventory, other current assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and interest payable.
The Company believes that these generally accepted industry measures are useful in that they allow for the evaluation of the Company's ability to repay creditors and return cash to shareholders without relying on external sources of funding. Free cash flow and free cash flow before changes in non-cash components of working capital also provide investors with information about the Company's financial position and its ability to generate cash to fund operational and capital requirements as well as return cash to shareholders. Management uses these measures in conjunction with other data prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards to, and believes it is useful to investors so they can, understand and monitor the cash generating ability of the Company.
The following table sets out a reconciliation of cash provided by operating activities per the condensed interim consolidated statements of cash flows to free cash flow and free cash flow before changes in non-cash components of working capital and to cash provided by operating activities before changes in non-cash components of working capital for the three and six months ended

Operating margin
Operating margin is calculated by deducting production costs from revenue from mining operations. In order to reconcile operating margin to net income as recorded in the condensed interim consolidated financial statements, the Company adds the following items to the operating margin: income and mining taxes expense; other expenses (income); care and maintenance expenses; foreign currency translation (gain) loss; environmental remediation costs; gain (loss) on derivative financial instruments; finance costs; general and administrative expenses; amortization of property, plant and mine development; exploration and corporate development expenses; and revaluation gain and impairment losses (reversals). The Company believes that operating margin is a useful measure to investors as it reflects the operating performance of its individual mines associated with the ongoing production and sale of gold and by-product metals without allocating Company-wide overhead, including exploration and corporate development expenses, amortization of property, plant and mine development, general and administrative expenses, finance costs, gain and losses on derivative financial instruments, environmental remediation costs, foreign currency translation gains and losses, other expenses and income and mining tax expenses. Management uses this measure internally to plan and forecast future operating results. Management believes this measure is useful to investors as it provides them with additional information about the Company's underlying operating results and should be evaluated in conjunction with other data prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards. For a reconciliation of operating margin to revenue from operations, see "Summary of Operations Key Performance Indicators".
Capital expenditures
Capital expenditures are calculated by deducting working capital adjustments from additions to property, plant and mine development per the condensed interim consolidated statements of cash flows.
Capital expenditures are classified into sustaining capital expenditures, sustaining capitalized exploration, development capital expenditures and development capitalized exploration. Sustaining capital expenditures and sustaining capitalized exploration are expenditures incurred during the production phase to sustain and maintain existing assets so they can achieve constant expected levels of production from which the Company will derive economic benefits. Sustaining capital expenditures and sustaining capitalized exploration include expenditure for assets to retain their existing productive capacity as well as to enhance performance and reliability of the operations. Development capital expenditures and development capitalized exploration represent the spending at new projects and/or expenditures at existing operations that are undertaken with the intention to increase production levels or mine life above the current plans. Management uses these measures in the capital allocation process and to assess the effectiveness of its investments. Management believes these measures are useful so investors can assess the purpose and effectiveness of the capital expenditures split between sustaining and development in each reporting period. The classification between sustaining and development capital expenditures does not have a standardized definition in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards and other companies may classify expenditures in a different manner.
The following table sets out a reconciliation of sustaining capital expenditures, sustaining capitalized exploration, development capital expenditures and development capitalized exploration to the additions to property, plant and mine development per the condensed interim consolidated statements of cash flows for the three and six months ended

Net cash (debt)
Net cash (debt) is calculated by adjusting the total of the current portion of long-term debt and non-current long-term debt as recorded on the condensed interim consolidated balance sheets for deferred financing costs and cash and cash equivalents. Management believes the measure of net cash (debt) is useful to help investors determine the Company's overall cash (debt) position and to evaluate the future debt capacity of the Company. The Company has changed the label for this non-GAAP measure "net debt" to "net cash (debt)" as the Company believes that reporting a positive net cash position is more clear and understandable to readers than a negative net debt position. The Company's method of calculating this non-GAAP measure has not changed.

Forward-Looking Non-GAAP Measures
This news release also contains information as to estimated future total cash costs per ounce and AISC per ounce. The estimates are based upon the total cash costs per ounce and AISC per ounce that the Company expects to incur to mine gold at its mines and projects and, consistent with the reconciliation of these actual costs referred to above, do not include production costs attributable to accretion expense and other asset retirement costs, which will vary over time as each project is developed and mined. It is therefore not practicable to reconcile these forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable IFRS Accounting Standards measure.

Notes: |
(i) Operating margin is not a recognized measure under IFRS Accounting Standards and this data may not be comparable to data reported by other gold producers. See Note Regarding Certain Measures of Performance– Operating Margin for more information on the Company's calculation and use of operating margin. |
(ii) Payable production (a non-GAAP non-financial performance measure) is the quantity of mineral produced during a period contained in products that are or will be sold by the Company, whether such products are sold during the period or held as inventories at the end of the period. For the three months ended June 30, 2025, it excludes 858 payable gold ounces produced at La India and 39 payable gold ounces produced at Creston Mascota. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, it excludes 2,669 payable gold ounces produced at La India and 64 payable gold ounces produced at Creston Mascota. |
