Fourth Quarter Operating Asset Highlights
Salobo: In the fourth quarter of 2025, Salobo produced 88,900 ounces of attributable gold, representing a quarterly record and an increase of approximately 5% relative to the fourth quarter of 2024, primarily the result of higher throughput and recoveries resulting from improved efficiencies at Salobo 1 and 2, partially offset by lower grades.
Antamina: In the fourth quarter of 2025, Antamina produced 1.6 million ounces of attributable silver, an increase of approximately 49% relative to the fourth quarter of 2024, primarily due to higher grades and recoveries.
Peñasquito
:
In the fourth quarter of 2025, Peñasquito produced 1.8 million ounces of attributable silver, a decrease of approximately 26% relative to the fourth quarter of 2024, primarily the result of lower grades with mining activities having transitioned back into the Peñasco pit which contains lower silver grades relative to the Chile Colorado pit, partially offset by higher recoveries. On
Blackwater:
In the fourth quarter of 2025, Blackwater produced 0.1 million ounces of attributable silver and 5,500 ounces of attributable gold, with the mine achieving commercial production in
On
Voisey's Bay: In the fourth quarter of 2025, the Voisey's Bay mine produced 670,000 pounds of attributable cobalt, an increase of approximately 70% relative to the fourth quarter of 2024 as the underground mine at Voisey's Bay continues ramp-up to full production, with full ramp-up expected by the second half of 2026.

-
Goose:
On
February 18, 2026 , B2Gold reported that production at theGoose Mine in 2025 was impacted by crushing plant capacity constraints in the third quarter and temporary delays in accessing higher‑grade ore from the Umwelt underground in the third quarter and early fourth quarter. Initial near‑term crushing circuit modifications, ordered in late 2025 and scheduled for implementation in the second half of 2026, are expected to increase average throughput to approximately 3,200 tonnes per day and eliminate the need for full‑time use of the mobile crusher, while studies are underway to evaluate further enhancements to increase capacity to approximately 4,000 tonnes per day, with decisions on scope and timing expected in the first half of 2026. B2Gold states that production in 2026 is expected to be weighted to the second half of 2026, with approximately 65% of estimated annual gold production to be achieved during the third and fourth quarters. -

For 2026, Wheaton provides annual production guidance of 860,000 to 940,000 GEOs8. This expected year-over-year growth is driven primarily by the additional stream at Antamina which is expected to add another 70,000 GEOs8 to the portfolio in 2026 and begin generating production on
At the Company's cornerstone assets, after achieving record production levels in 2025, attributable production levels at Salobo are forecast to decrease slightly, with higher throughput levels anticipated to be offset by modestly lower gold grades.

Non-GAAP Measures
Wheaton has included, throughout this document, certain non-GAAP performance measures, including (i) adjusted net earnings and adjusted net earnings per share; (ii) operating cash flow per share (basic and diluted); (iii) average cash costs of gold, silver and palladium on a per ounce basis and cobalt on a per pound basis; and (iv) cash operating margin.
|
i. |
Adjusted net earnings and adjusted net earnings per share are calculated by removing the effects of non-cash impairment charges (reversals) (if any), non-cash fair value (gains) losses and other one-time (income) expenses as well as the reversal of non-cash income tax expense (recovery) which is offset by income tax expense (recovery) recognized in the Statements of Shareholders' Equity and OCI, respectively. The Company believes that, in addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards, management and certain investors use this information to evaluate the Company's performance. |
The following table provides a reconciliation of adjusted net earnings and adjusted net earnings per share (basic and diluted).

Operating cash flow per share (basic and diluted) is calculated by dividing cash generated by operating activities by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (basic and diluted). The Company presents operating cash flow per share as management and certain investors use this information to evaluate the Company's performance in comparison to other companies in the precious metal mining industry who present results on a similar basis. |

Average cash cost of gold, silver and palladium on a per ounce basis and cobalt on a per pound basis is calculated by dividing the total cost of sales, less depletion and cost of sales related to delay ounces, by the ounces or pounds sold. In the precious metal mining industry, this is a common performance measure but does not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS Accounting Standards. In addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards, management and certain investors use this information to evaluate the Company's performance and ability to generate cash flow. |

Cash operating margin is calculated by adding back depletion and the cost of sales related to delay ounces to the gross margin. Cash operating margin on a per ounce or per pound basis is calculated by dividing the cash operating margin by the number of ounces or pounds sold during the period. The Company presents cash operating margin as management and certain investors use this information to evaluate the Company's performance in comparison to other companies in the precious metal mining industry who present results on a similar basis as well as to evaluate the Company's ability to generate cash flow. |
