CORE BUSINESS AND STRATEGY
Pan American engages in silver and gold mining and related activities, including exploration, mine development, extraction, processing, refining and reclamation. The Company owns and operates mines located in Canada, Mexico, Peru, Bolivia, Argentina, Chile and Brazil. We also own the Escobal mine in Guatemala that is currently not operating. In addition, the Company is exploring for new silver deposits and opportunities throughout the Americas. The Company is listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange (Symbol: PAAS) (the "TSX") and on the New York Stock Exchange (Symbol: PAAS) (the "NYSE").
Pan American’s vision is to be the world’s premier silver mining company, with a reputation for excellence in discovery, engineering, innovation and sustainable development. To achieve this vision, we base our business on the following strategy:
Generate sustainable profits and superior returns on investments through the safe, efficient and environmentally sound development and operation of our assets.
Constantly replace and grow our mineral reserves and mineral resources through targeted near-mine exploration and global business development.
Foster positive long-term relationships with our employees, shareholders, communities and local governments through open and honest communication and ethical and sustainable business practices.
Continually search for opportunities to upgrade and improve the quality of our assets, both internally and through acquisition.
Encourage our employees to be innovative, responsive and entrepreneurial throughout our entire organization.
To execute this strategy, Pan American has assembled a sector-leading team of mining professionals with a depth of knowledge and experience in all aspects of our business, which enables the Company to confidently advance early-stage projects through construction and into operation.
MAG SILVER CORP. TRANSACTION
On May 11, 2025, the Company and MAG Silver Corp. ("MAG") entered into a definitive agreement (the "Arrangement Agreement") whereby the Company expects to acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares of MAG pursuant to a plan of arrangement under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) (the "Transaction"). Under the terms of the Arrangement Agreement, MAG shareholders will be able to elect to receive the consideration as either (i) $20.54 in cash per MAG share or (ii) 0.755 common shares of Pan American per MAG share, or a combination of cash and shares, subject to proration such that the aggregate consideration paid to all MAG shareholders consists of $500.0 million in cash and the remaining consideration paid in Pan American common shares. On July 10, 2025, MAG's shareholders approved the Transaction at its special shareholders meeting. The Transaction is expected to close in the second half of 2025, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including clearance under Mexican anti-trust laws.
MAG is a tier-one primary silver mining company through its 44% interest in the large-scale, high-grade Juanicipio mine, operated by Fresnillo plc, who holds the remaining 56% interest in Juanicipio. Juanicipio is a low-cost silver mine that will meaningfully increase Pan American’s exposure to high margin silver ounces. Furthermore, we see future growth opportunities through the significant exploration potential at Juanicipio as well as MAG’s Deer Trail and Larder properties. This strategic acquisition further solidifies Pan American as a leading Americas-focused silver producer.

Q2 2025 OPERATIONAL AND FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
Silver production of 5.09 million ounces
Silver production for the three months ended June 30, 2025 ("Q2 2025") was 5.09 million ounces compared with 4.57 million ounces in the three months ended June 30, 2024 ("Q2 2024").
Gold production of 178.7 thousand ounces
Gold production for Q2 2025 was 178.7 thousand ounces compared to 220.4 thousand ounces in Q2 2024.
All-In Sustaining Costs (“AISC”)(1)
Silver Segment AISC excluding net realizable value ("NRV") inventory adjustments for Q2 2025 of $19.69 per ounce were $1.57 per ounce higher than in Q2 2024.
Gold Segment AISC excluding NRV inventory adjustments for Q2 2025 of $1,611 per ounce were $146 per ounce higher than in Q2 2024.
2025 Operating Outlook
Production for the six months ended June 30, 2025 ("H1 2025") was generally in line with the Company’s 2025 Operating Outlook, while Silver and Gold Segment AISC were lower than expected. Based on production and costs to date and our expectations for the remainder of the year, the Company reaffirms its 2025 Operating Outlook for silver and gold production, zinc, lead and copper ("base metal") production, Silver Segment and Gold Segment AISC, and sustaining and project capital expenditures, as provided in the Company's MD&A dated February 19, 2025. Management now expects gold production to be more heavily weighted to the fourth quarter of 2025 than originally indicated in its 2025 Quarterly Operating Outlook, as some production from the third quarter is expected to be deferred.

Silver Production
Consolidated silver production for Q2 2025 was 5.09 million ounces compared to 4.57 million ounces reported in Q2 2024. The quarterly increase was primarily driven by higher production from (i) a 0.67 million ounce increase at La Colorada owing to higher throughput and grades, reflecting a substantial improvement in ventilation conditions; and, (ii) a 0.12 million ounce increase at El Peñon attributable to higher tonnes mined and a reduced contribution from low-grade stockpiles. These quarter-over-quarter increases were partly offset by (i) a 0.15 million ounce reduction at Dolores, as the mine entered its residual leaching phase following the completion of mining and stacking activities in July 2024 and January 2025, respectively; and, (ii) a 0.08 million ounce decrease at Cerro Moro reflective of unplanned dilution due to geotechnical issues, as well as lower grades due to mine sequencing and declining reserve grades.
Consolidated silver production for H1 2025 was 10.10 million ounces compared with 9.58 million ounces in the six months ended June 30, 2024 ("H1 2024"). The increase was largely driven by: (i) a 0.95 million ounce increase in production at La Colorada driven by higher throughput from the improvement in ventilation conditions; and, (ii) a 0.21 million ounce production increase at El Peñon due to the same reasons provided above for Q2 2025. These increases were partially offset by (i) a 0.30 million ounce and a 0.23 million ounce reduction at Cerro Moro and Dolores, respectively, reflecting the same factors that impacted the quarter-over-quarter variance; and, (ii) a 0.16 million ounce reduction at San Vicente resulting from mine sequencing into lower silver grade ore zones.
Gold Production
Consolidated gold production for Q2 2025 was 178.7 thousand ounces compared to 220.4 thousand ounces reported in Q2 2024. The quarter-over-quarter decrease was largely driven by: (i) a 21.0 thousand ounce reduction from the disposition of La Arena in December 2024; (ii) an 8.2 thousand ounce decrease at El Peñon, primarily attributed to lower gold grades as a result of dilution from overbreak and localized negative model reconciliations; (iii) an 8.0 thousand ounce reduction at Dolores due to the same factors that affected silver production; and, (iv) a 6.1 thousand ounce decrease at Timmins largely reflecting lower throughput and timing of stockpile handling.

Management Discussion and Analysis
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024
(tabular amounts are in millions of U.S. dollars and thousands of shares, options,
and warrants except per share amounts and per ounce amounts, unless otherwise noted)
Consolidated gold production for H1 2025 was 361.0 thousand ounces compared to 443.3 thousand ounces in H1 2024. The decrease was primarily driven by the divestment of La Arena, and lower production at Dolores, El Peñon and Timmins, largely due to the same factors that impacted quarter-over-quarter production.
Base Metal Production
Zinc, lead and copper production in Q2 2025 were 12.6 thousand tonnes, 6.0 thousand tonnes, and 0.7 thousand tonnes, respectively. Zinc and lead production increased 2.5 thousand tonnes and 1.1 thousand tonnes, respectively, compared to Q2 2024, as a result of mine sequencing into zinc and lead ore zones at Huaron that drove higher throughput and grades, as well as higher throughput at La Colorada from improved ventilation conditions. Conversely, copper production decreased 0.5 thousand tonnes relative to Q2 2024, predominately due to lower grades at Huaron from mine sequencing.
Zinc, lead and copper production in H1 2025 were 26.5 thousand tonnes, 12.6 thousand tonnes, and 1.3 thousand tonnes, respectively. Zinc and lead production increased 6.7 thousand tonnes and 3.1 thousand tonnes, respectively, while copper production decreased 1.6 thousand tonnes compared to H1 2024, due to the same factors that impacted quarter-over-quarter production.
AISC
Silver Segment AISC excluding NRV inventory adjustments for Q2 2025 of $19.69 per ounce were $1.57 per ounce higher than in Q2 2024. The quarterly increase in AISC was driven by: (i) Huaron, from higher mining costs from increased development rates related to a revised mine plan, which also contributed to higher throughput from development ore, albeit at lower grades; additional costs to operate the new filtration plant and filter-stack tailings storage facility; and lower by-product credits from lower copper production; (ii) San Vicente, primarily from higher royalties driven by higher silver prices, higher operating costs and sustaining capital per ounce resulting from inflation and mining lower silver grade ores, and a build-up of zinc inventories that led to lower by-product credits per ounce. These factors increasing AISC were partially offset by: (i) Cerro Moro, predominately reflecting the higher gold by-product credits due to a higher ratio of gold to silver ounces produced and sold and an increase in gold prices; and (ii) La Colorada, reflecting the improvement in ventilation conditions, resulting in lower mining costs per ounce and higher silver production.
Silver Segment AISC excluding NRV inventory adjustments for H1 2025 of $16.69 per ounce were $0.70 per ounce lower than in H1 2024. The decrease in AISC was driven by: (i) Cerro Moro, from the same factor that reduced quarter-over-quarter AISC; and (ii) La Colorada, largely reflecting the improvement in ventilation conditions. These decreases in AISC were partially offset by increases at: (i) Huaron, reflecting the same factors affecting quarter-over-quarter AISC; and (ii) San Vicente, largely from higher royalties due to increased metal prices and timing of royalty expense recognition.
Gold Segment AISC excluding NRV inventory adjustments for Q2 2025 of $1,611 per ounce were $146 per ounce higher than in Q2 2024. The quarter-over-quarter increase was largely driven by: (i) Minera Florida, due to higher production costs per ounce driven by the impact of mining lower grade ores, as well as increased costs associated with higher ore mined and processed, as well as the distance between active stopes; (ii) Timmins, primarily due to higher production costs per ounce driven by the impact of mining lower grade ores and higher sustaining capital expenditures; (iii) Shahuindo, due to higher production costs from a higher waste-to-ore strip ratio and increased expensed costs related to heap inventory movements. These increases were partially offset by: (i) Dolores, as mining activities ceased in July 2024 with costs in Q2 2025 reflecting residual leaching activities that led to lower operating costs per ounce, and (ii) La Arena, as the relatively higher cost mine was divested in December 2024.
Gold Segment AISC excluding NRV inventory adjustments for H1 2025 of $1,547 per ounce were $65 per ounce higher than in H1 2024, largely reflecting the same factors that affected the quarter-over-quarter variance.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024
(tabular amounts are in millions of U.S. dollars and thousands of shares, options,
and warrants except per share amounts and per ounce amounts, unless otherwise noted)
Silver Segment Operations
La Colorada
At the La Colorada mine, Q2 2025 silver production of 1.51 million ounces was 80% higher than in Q2 2024, primarily reflecting the significant improvement in mine ventilation conditions. The improved ventilation conditions have allowed mine rehabilitation and development rates to accelerate, increasing the number of production areas. Zinc and lead production in Q2 2025 were 47% and 30% higher, respectively. These increases were largely driven by the improvement in ventilation conditions that increased throughput, partially offset by lower base metal grades from the processing of silver and gold oxide ore material. During Q2 2025, AISC excluding NRV inventory adjustments of $24.18 per ounce were $7.22 per ounce lower than in Q2 2024, primarily from ventilation improvements driving higher mine productivity, resulting in lower mining cost per ounce. This was partially offset by payments to an adjacent concession owner for undertaking mining activities on an adjacent concession pursuant to the terms of an agreement whereby the concession owner received monthly payments based on a percentage of net profits generated from the minerals produced from the concession. Sustaining capital was higher in Q2 2025 than in Q2 2024 from increased investments in tailings storage facility expansions, mine ventilation infrastructure and mine equipment overhauls, partially offset by decreased investments in near-mine exploration.
In H1 2025, silver production of 2.90 million ounces was 49% higher than in H1 2024, primarily reflecting higher throughput driven by the previously mentioned improvement in ventilation conditions. Zinc and lead production in H1 2025 were 50% and 34% higher, respectively, also largely from increased throughput. During H1 2025, AISC excluding NRV inventory adjustments of $22.06 per ounce were $7.12 per ounce lower than in H1 2024, largely driven by the same factors that impacted the quarter. Sustaining capital was higher in H1 2025 than in H1 2024, largely from the same factors that drove the quarter-over-quarter increase.
Cerro Moro
At the Cerro Moro mine, silver production of 0.49 million ounces in Q2 2025 and gold production of 16.1 thousand ounces were 14% and 6% lower than in Q2 2024, respectively. The quarter-over-quarter decrease in silver and gold production was driven by unplanned dilution due to geotechnical issues, as well as mine sequencing into lower grade ore zones in the current quarter and overall declining reserve grades in the case of silver. This was partially offset by higher throughput relative to Q2 2024, when severe precipitation restricted mine access, resulting in delayed mining and processing of ore in that period. During Q2 2025, AISC were negative $0.47 per ounce, which was $20.57 lower than in Q2 2024, primarily due to higher gold by-product credits resulting from a higher ratio of gold to silver produced and sold and higher gold prices. This was partially offset by higher production costs related to labour expenses from the impact of inflation outpacing currency devaluation.
In H1 2025, silver production of 1.03 million ounces and gold production of 36.7 thousand ounces were 23% and 4% lower than in H1 2024, respectively. The decrease in silver and gold production were largely driven by the same factors mentioned above. During H1 2025, AISC were negative $2.57 per ounce, which was $14.50 lower than in H1 2024, largely reflecting the same factors that affected the quarter-over-quarter AISC.
Huaron
At the Huaron mine, silver production of 0.84 million ounces in Q2 2025 was consistent with Q2 2024, as higher throughput from mine sequencing into zinc and lead ore zones and increased development metres and tonnes were largely offset by lower silver grades. Zinc and lead production in Q2 2025 increased 31% and 26%, respectively, whereas copper production decreased 65% due to mine sequencing away from copper ore zones into zinc and lead ore zones, as described above. In Q2 2025, AISC of $22.73 per ounce were $15.38 per ounce higher relative to Q2 2024, primarily driven by higher mining costs from increased development related to a revised mine plan, which also contributed to higher throughput from development ore, albeit at lower grades. AISC was further impacted by the additional cost to operate the new filtration plant and filter-stack tailings storage facility, lower by-product credits from lower copper production and higher sustaining capital expenditures pertaining to near-

mine exploration and mine equipment replacements. These cost increases were partially offset by lower treatment and refining charges resulting from favorable commercial concentrate terms.
In H1 2025, silver production of 1.79 million ounces was 5% higher relative to H1 2024, while zinc and lead production in H1 2025 increased 44% and 39%, respectively, while copper production decreased 72% relative to H1 2024. The changes in production were driven by the same factors affecting the quarter. During H1 2025, AISC of $17.50 per ounce were $7.02 per ounce higher relative to H1 2024, largely as a result of the same factors that affected quarter-over-quarter AISC.
San Vicente
At the San Vicente mine, silver production of 0.76 million ounces in Q2 2025 was comparable to Q2 2024, as higher throughput was offset by lower silver grades from mine sequencing. Copper and zinc production increased 26% and 14% in Q2 2025, respectively, while lead decreased 9%, compared to Q2 2024. This was primarily due to mine sequencing into zinc and copper ore zones and away from lead ore zones. Q2 2025 AISC of $23.39 per ounce were $6.30 per ounce higher than in Q2 2024. The quarter-over-quarter increase was largely driven by the impact of mining lower grade ores, which led to higher operating costs and sustaining capital expenditures per ounce. AISC were further impacted by a build-up of zinc inventories in the current quarter that impacted by-product credits and higher royalties per ounce reflecting higher profitability. This was partially offset by lower treatment and refining charges attributable to favorable commercial terms relative to Q2 2024.
In H1 2025, silver production of 1.40 million ounces decreased 11%, while zinc, copper and lead production increased 20%, 19% and 8%, respectively, compared to H1 2024. The period-over-period change in production was largely due to mine sequencing into lower silver grade ore zones and into higher base metal ore zones. H1 2025 AISC of $21.28 per ounce were $4.04 per ounce higher than in H1 2024, largely as a result of the same factors that affected quarter-over-quarter AISC, except for by-product credits per ounce that were consistent with the previous period.
Gold Segment Operations
Jacobina
At the Jacobina mine, Q2 2025 gold production of 47.6 thousand ounces was comparable to Q2 2024, as higher throughput was offset by mine sequencing into lower gold grade ores. During Q2 2025, AISC of $1,296 per ounce was comparable to Q2 2024, as higher production costs per ounce from an increase in mining materials and contractor costs, in addition to higher royalties from higher metal prices, were largely offset by lower sustaining capital expenditures from decreased mine equipment lease payments, tailings storage facility expansion activities and plant upgrade expenditures.
In H1 2025, gold production of 92.7 thousand ounces was comparable to H1 2024. During H1 2025, AISC of $1,270 per ounce were also comparable to H1 2024, as the previously explained higher mining costs and royalties that impacted the quarter-over-quarter variance were offset by lower sustaining capital expenditures from decreased capitalized development investments, mine equipment lease payments and tailings storage facility expansion activities.
El Peñon
At the El Peñon mine, gold production of 27.9 thousand ounces and silver production of 0.97 million ounces in Q2 2025 were 23% lower and 14% higher than in Q2 2024, respectively. The variance was primarily driven by unplanned mine sequencing into a zone with higher silver relative to gold grades. Both metals were also impacted by dilution from overbreak, especially in development, and localized negative model grade reconciliations. These effects were offset by increased processing of mined ore in place of low-grade stockpile material. Q2 2025 AISC of $1,284 per ounce were $51 per ounce higher than in Q2 2024, primarily due to higher production costs per ounce related to the impact of mining lower grade ores and increased maintenance and contractor expenditures associated with higher ore mined. These impacts were partially offset by higher by-product credits, driven by

increased silver prices and a higher ratio of silver ounces sold relative to gold ounces sold, as well as lower investments in near-mine exploration.
H1 2025 gold production of 56.1 thousand ounces and silver production of 1.91 million ounces were 17% lower and 12% higher than in H1 2024, respectively, largely due to the same factors that impacted quarter-over-quarter results. H1 2025 AISC of $1,249 per ounce were $35 per ounce lower than in H1 2024, primarily due to higher by-product credits from increased silver prices and a higher ratio of silver ounces sold relative to gold ounces sold, partially offset by higher production costs per ounce related to the impact of mining lower grade ores and increased maintenance and contractor costs associated with higher ore mined.
Timmins
At the Timmins mines, gold production of 24.5 thousand ounces in Q2 2025 was 20% lower relative to Q2 2024, attributable to lower throughput from reduced equipment availability at Timmins West and timing of stockpile handling that benefited the prior quarter. Gold grades were also lower due to stope underperformance related to geotechnical challenges and higher ore dilution, which led to unplanned mine sequencing into lower grade zones. Q2 2025 AISC of $2,420 per ounce were $420 per ounce higher than in Q2 2024, due to higher production costs per ounce related to the impact of mining lower grade ores, higher sustaining capital expenditures for mine equipment replacements and mine ventilation infrastructure, and higher royalties as a result of higher gold prices.
H1 2025 gold production of 53.0 thousand ounces was 14% lower relative to H1 2024, due to lower throughput driven by the same factors impacting quarter-over-quarter performance, as well as extreme weather events that temporarily restricted access to mining areas in the first quarter of 2025. H1 2025 AISC of $2,260 per ounce were $253 per ounce higher than in H1 2024, largely due to higher production costs per ounce related to the impact of mining lower grade ores, higher royalties as a result of higher gold prices, and higher sustaining capital investments, primarily related to tailings storage facility expansions.
Shahuindo
At the Shahuindo mine, gold production in Q2 2025 increased by 9% to 33.7 thousand ounces relative to Q2 2024. The quarter-over-quarter increase was due to more tonnes stacked, as well as higher gold grades from mine sequencing and positive mine grade reconciliations. In Q2 2025, AISC were $1,551 per ounce, which was $116 per ounce higher compared to Q2 2024. The increase was primarily due to higher production costs from a higher waste-to-ore strip ratio, as well as increased expensed costs from heap inventory movements due to weighted average inventory accounting. This was partially offset by lower sustaining capital expenditures reflecting delays in leach pad expansion and waste storage facility preparation projects.
In H1 2025, gold production of 63.2 thousand ounces was comparable with H1 2024 as tonnes stacked and gold grade remained largely consistent period-over-period. During H1 2025, AISC were $1,496 per ounce, which was $179 per ounce higher compared to H1 2024, largely due to the same factors that impacted the quarter-over-quarter AISC.
Minera Florida
At the Minera Florida mine, gold production of 17.7 thousand ounces and silver production of 0.18 million ounces in Q2 2025 were both 7% lower than in Q2 2024. The decrease in gold and silver production were primarily driven by negative mine grade reconciliations and unplanned mine sequencing into lower grade ore zones, partially offset by higher mill throughput. Q2 2025 AISC of $2,403 per ounce were $814 per ounce higher than in Q2 2024, primarily due to higher production costs per ounce resulting from the impact of mining lower grade ores, along with increased labour, maintenance, contractor and process consumables costs associated with higher ore tonnes mined and processed, as well as the distance between active stopes. AISC was also impacted by higher sustaining capital investments related to near-mine exploration, mine equipment replacements, and raise bore developments. These increases were partially offset by higher by-product credits from increased metal prices.
H1 2025 gold production of 32.9 thousand ounces was 19% lower than in H1 2024, while silver production was comparable to H1 2024. The reduction in gold production was due to the same factors that impacted quarter-

over-quarter results. H1 2025 AISC of $2,423 per ounce were $720 per ounce higher than in H1 2024, largely as a result of the same factors that affected quarter-over-quarter results.
Dolores
At the Dolores mine, gold production of 10.1 thousand ounces and silver production of 0.29 million ounces in Q2 2025 were 44% and 34% lower than in Q2 2024, respectively. The decrease was largely driven by the cessation of mining activities in July 2024 and the completion of stacking in January 2025, as the mine entered its residual leaching phase. Q2 2025 AISC excluding NRV inventory adjustments of $811 per ounce were $432 per ounce lower than in Q2 2024 due to lower direct operating costs, as the mine entered the residual leaching phase, and from higher by-product credits from higher metal prices.
In H1 2025, gold production of 24.1 thousand ounces and silver production of 0.64 million ounces in H1 2025 were 33% and 26% lower than in H1 2024, respectively. The reduction was due to the same factors that impacted quarter-over-quarter results. H1 2025 AISC excluding NRV inventory adjustments of $669 per ounce were $724 per ounce lower than in H1 2024, largely reflecting the same factors that affected the quarter-over-quarter variance.
PROJECT DEVELOPMENT UPDATE
At the La Colorada mine, project capital of $2.1 million and $7.0 million for Q2 2025 and H1 2025, respectively, was directed largely to the current vein mining operation for exploration and mine equipment leases to access, mine, and expand mineral resource extensions in the eastern and southeastern higher grade Candelaria zone.
With respect to the La Colorada Skarn, project capital of $4.5 million and $7.6 million for Q2 2025 and H1 2025, respectively, was largely for exploration and in-fill drilling and advancing engineering work. Pan American is currently discussing potential partnerships for development of the project.
At the Huaron mine, project capital of $2.3 million and $5.3 million for Q2 2025 and H1 2025, respectively, was related to residual accounts payable settlements for the construction of the dry-stack tailings storage facility. The facility was completed in the fourth quarter of 2024, and is fully commissioned and operating.
At the Jacobina mine, project capital of $3.4 million and $8.2 million for Q2 2025 and H1 2025, respectively, was allocated to (i) the installation of new trash screens in the grinding circuit and metal extractors in the crushing area to improve plant availability, safety, and equipment reliability; (ii) advancing the replacement of CIP agitators to increase metallurgical recovery and tailings pumps to improve operational reliability; and, (iii) advancing mine and plant optimization studies aimed at maximizing long-term economic performance.
At the Timmins mines, project capital of $1.0 million and $3.9 million for Q2 2025 and H1 2025, respectively, was related to underground development advances to provide access for exploration activities at satellite deposits.
At Escobal, the Xinka Parliament ("XP"), as the representative of the Xinka Indigenous People, issued a statement and held a press conference in May 2025 with respect to the ILO 169 Consultation Process. In July 2025, the MEM delivered a response to the XP, describing the government proposals for overseeing the mining activities and the Company’s proposals to address concerns raised during consultation meetings, as well as clarifying the potential impacts from the Escobal mine’s activities. These documents can be reviewed on the MEM website at: https://mem.gob.gt/57110-2/. The MEM has indicated that they will continue to hold working meetings and maintain dialogue with the XP in order to comply with the Constitutional Court ruling for the ILO 169 Consultation. There is no detailed timeline of activities nor a date for completion of the consultation process.

FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE
Income Statement
Net Earnings of $189.6 million and $358.9 million were recorded in Q2 2025 and H1 2025, respectively, compared to net losses of $21.4 million and $52.2 million in the same periods of 2024. This corresponds to a basic earnings per share of $0.52 and $0.99, respectively (2024 - $0.06 and $0.15 basic loss per share, respectively).

1)Revenue for Q2 2025 was $125.6 million higher than in Q2 2024, driven by a $198.7 million increase from higher gold and silver prices, which was partially offset by an $80.5 million decrease in quantities of metal sold, largely from lower quantities of gold sold due to the December 2, 2024 disposition of La Arena, as well as lower production at Dolores, El Peñon, Timmins and Minera Florida, as described in the "Operating Performance" section of this MD&A.
Revenue for H1 2025 was $297.4 million higher than in H1 2024, driven by a $398.2 million increase in gold and silver prices, partially offset by a $116.4 million decrease in quantities of metal sold, largely driven by lower gold and copper sales, offset by higher sales of silver, lead and zinc. The lower gold sales were the result of the same factors affecting quarter-over-quarter revenue, whereas higher silver sales largely reflect higher production and sales at La Colorada. Base metal sales differences reflect mine sequencing at Huaron and higher production at La Colorada.

2)Metal quantities stated as koz for silver and gold and kt for zinc, lead and copper.
2)Production and royalty costs in Q2 2025 were $24.8 million lower than in Q2 2024. This was primarily attributed to decreased NRV inventory adjustments of $29.3 million as a result of improved metal prices and the prior period being impacted by updates to cost assumptions following the substantively completed mining activities at Dolores. This decrease was partly offset by increased royalty costs of $3.9 million related to mining from a third-party concession at La Colorada. Further, there was a $0.6 million increase in production costs (excluding NRV inventory adjustments) reflecting higher overall unit operating costs across multiple sites, mostly offset by the December 2024 disposition of La Arena and the cessation of mining and stacking activities at Dolores.
Production and royalty costs in H1 2025 were $27.8 million lower than in H1 2024. This was mainly the result of decreased NRV inventory adjustments of $47.8 million, as a result of the same factors driving the quarter-over-quarter decrease. This decrease was partly offset by a $12.8 million increase in royalty expense, largely related to higher metal prices, and mining from a third-party concession at La Colorada. In addition, there was a $7.2 million increase in production costs (excluding NRV inventory adjustments), which was primarily driven by overall higher unit operating costs, mostly offset by the December 2024 disposition of La Arena and the cessation of mining and stacking activities at Dolores.
3)Depreciation and amortization expense for Q2 2025 was $6.0 million lower than in Q2 2024 due to $4.3 million lower depreciation and amortization expense ("D&A") (excluding NRV inventory adjustments), primarily driven by the December 2024 disposition of La Arena and a reduced D&A charge at Dolores. The reduced D&A charge at Dolores reflects the mine's transition to its residual leaching phase in January 2025, which has decreased production rates as well as led to an NRV of inventoried depreciation costs at the end of 2024 that reduced the D&A balance in inventory. This was partly offset by an increase in D&A expense due to increased depletion rates across most of the Company's mines that resulted from the change in the proven and probable reserves with the Company's annual mineral reserves and mineral resources update as at June 30, 2024, along with mineral properties, plant and equipment additions. Additionally, there was a $1.7 million allocation of the Dolores NRV inventory adjustment write-up, which decreased D&A expense in the current quarter.
Depreciation and amortization expense for H1 2025 was $11.0 million lower than in H1 2024, largely due to the same reasons driving the quarter-over-quarter decrease.
4)Income tax expense for Q2 2025 was $48.3 million lower than in Q2 2024, largely as a result of the foreign exchange rate impacts on the foreign denominated tax attributes, which were largely responsible for generating a deferred income tax recovery in the current quarter, but an expense in the prior quarter. These FX fluctuations were partly offset by increases in mine operating earnings quarter over quarter.

Management Discussion and Analysis
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024
(tabular amounts are in millions of U.S. dollars and thousands of shares, options,
and warrants except per share amounts and per ounce amounts, unless otherwise noted)
Income tax expense for H1 2025 was $38.1 million lower than in H1 2024, largely due to the same reasons driving the quarter over quarter decrease.
5)Derivative gains for Q2 2025 were $12.9 million compared to derivative losses of $0.8 million for Q2 2024, an increase of $13.7 million. The gains in Q2 2025 were largely due to gains on all currency hedge book positions, but in particular on the Brazilian and Canadian hedge books. The Q2 2024 derivative loss was driven by losses in the Brazilian and Canadian hedge books offset by gains in the Chilean hedge book.
Derivative gains for H1 2025 were $28.7 million compared to derivative losses of $11.4 million for H1 2024, an increase of $40.1 million. This was largely attributed to unrealized gains on the Brazilian, Canadian and Chilean currency hedges, compared to losses in the Brazilian, Chilean, and Canadian currency hedges in the prior year.
6)Investment income for Q2 2025 was $8.5 million higher than in Q2 2024, primarily related to an increase in bank interest income due to the record cash balance in 2025, and mark-to-market fair value adjustments driven by the share price movement of New Pacific Metals Corp.
Investment income for H1 2025 was $24.6 million higher than in H1 2024 for the same reasons driving the quarter-over-quarter increase.
7)Foreign exchange loss for Q2 2025 was $10.8 million higher than in Q2 2024. The $4.5 million foreign exchange loss in Q2 2025 was primarily due to the depreciation of the Argentine Peso, which resulted in a loss on outstanding value-added tax ("VAT") receivable balances, and the appreciation of the Chilean Peso and Brazilian Real, which resulted in higher net monetary liabilities, mostly offset by favourable trade execution in Bolivia. In Q2 2024, a $6.3 million foreign exchange gain was recorded, primarily due to the depreciation of the Brazilian Real and favourable trade execution in Bolivia.
Foreign exchange loss for H1 2025 was $22.1 million higher than in H1 2024 for the same reasons driving the quarter-over-quarter increase.
Statement of Cash Flows
Cash flow from operations in Q2 2025 was $293.4 million, $130.7 million higher than the $162.7 million generated in Q2 2024, mainly reflecting increased revenue of $125.6 million, as explained in the "Income Statement" section above, and a positive quarter-over-quarter variance in changes from non-cash working capital of $39.7 million. These increases were partially offset by higher income taxes paid of $37.0 million.
Changes in non-cash working capital drove a $5.5 million source of cash in Q2 2025 compared with $34.2 million use of cash in Q2 2024. The $39.7 million positive quarter-over-quarter variance was primarily driven by a $21.2 million increase related to accounts payable and accrued liabilities build-ups in the current quarter, compared to settlements in the prior quarter, as well as decreased inventory build-ups of $6.2 million.
Cash flow from operations in H1 2025 was $468.2 million, $244.4 million higher than the $223.8 million generated in H1 2024, largely reflecting increased revenue of $297.4 million, as previously explained, and a positive quarter-over-quarter variance in changes from non-cash working capital of $40.3 million, which were partially offset by higher income taxes paid of $91.0 million.
Changes in non-cash working capital drove a $59.8 million use of cash in H1 2025 compared with $100.1 million in H1 2024. The $40.3 million quarter-over-quarter change was primarily driven by decreased inventory build-ups of $46.5 million.
Investing activities in Q2 2025 used $52.7 million of cash, primarily related to the $60.3 million spent on mineral properties, plant and equipment ("MPP&E") at the Company’s mines and projects, as previously described in the “Operating Performance” section of this MD&A. In Q2 2024, investing activities used $72.7 million, primarily related to the $75.9 million spent on MPP&E at the Company’s mines and projects.
Investing activities in H1 2025 used $120.6 million of cash, primarily related to $128.4 million spent on MPP&E at the Company’s mines and projects, as previously described in the “Operating Performance” section of this MD&A.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024
(tabular amounts are in millions of U.S. dollars and thousands of shares, options,
and warrants except per share amounts and per ounce amounts, unless otherwise noted)
In H1 2024, investing activities used $159.2 million, primarily related to the $162.8 million spent on MPP&E at the Company’s mines and projects.
Financing activities in Q2 2025 utilized $61.3 million compared to $53.2 million in Q2 2024. In Q2 2025, the Company paid $36.2 million in dividends, made lease repayments of $13.2 million and spent $11.1 million for the repurchase and cancellation of Company shares under the Normal Course Issuer Bid ("NCIB"). In Q2 2024, the Company paid dividends of $36.3 million, spent $12.8 million on lease repayments, and spent $2.8 million for the repurchase and cancellation of Company shares under the NCIB.
Financing activities in H1 2025 utilized $131.2 million compared to $125.9 million used H1 2024. In H1 2025, the Company paid $72.4 million of dividends, spent $31.1 million for the repurchase and cancellation of Company shares under the NCIB, and spent $25.0 million on lease repayments. In H1 2024, the Company paid $72.8 million of dividends, spent $24.3 million for the repurchase and cancellation of Company shares under the NCIB, and spent $25.9 million on lease repayments.
Liquidity and Financial Position
Liquidity
The Company's cash and short-term investments increased by $186.2 million during Q2 2025, largely reflecting the contribution from operating cash flow of $293.4 million, and inclusive of investing and financing activities: $60.3 million for MPP&E, $36.2 million in dividend payments, $13.2 million in lease payments, and $11.1 million for the repurchase and cancellation of Company shares under the NCIB.
Pan American’s investment objectives for its excess cash balances are to preserve capital, to provide liquidity and to maximize returns. The Company’s strategy to achieve these objectives is to invest excess cash balances in a portfolio of primarily fixed income instruments with specified credit rating targets established by the Board of Directors. From time to time, the Company may assess opportunities to use excess liquidity to provide returns to its shareholders and reduce existing debt levels, including, among other things, through dividends, purchases under its NCIB, the repayment of any amounts that may be drawn on its Credit Facility, and the repayment of the Senior Notes (as defined below) prior to maturity, as the Company deems appropriate.
Working capital of $1,310.5 million at June 30, 2025 was $277.1 million higher than working capital of $1,033.4 million at December 31, 2024, largely as a result of the increase in cash and short-term investments, settlement of accounts payable and accrued liabilities, decreased income tax payables and derivative liabilities, and a build-up of derivative assets resulting from mark-to-market adjustments. This was partially offset by an increase in provisions. The net cash generated from the sales of metal production provides our primary source of cash flows, and we do not currently expect to experience payment delinquencies from our metal sales counterparties.
The Company’s financial position at June 30, 2025, and the operating cash flows that are expected over the next 12 months, lead Management to believe that the Company’s liquid assets and available credit from the revolving Credit Facility are sufficient to satisfy our 2025 working capital requirements, fund currently planned capital expenditures, fund the $500.0 million cash consideration for the MAG Transaction, and to discharge liabilities as they come due. The Company remains well positioned to take advantage of strategic opportunities as they become available. Liquidity risks are discussed further in the “Risks and Uncertainties” section of this MD&A.
Credit Facility, Senior Notes and Commitments
The Credit Facility has a limit of $750.0 million plus an accordion feature for up to an additional $250.0 million, which is available at the discretion of the lenders. As of June 30, 2025, the Company was in compliance with all financial covenants under the Credit Facility, which was undrawn. The borrowing costs under the Credit Facility are based on the Company's credit ratings from Moody's and S&P Global at either: (i) Secured Overnight Financing Rate plus 1.25% to 2.40%; or (ii) The Bank of Nova Scotia's Base Rate on U.S. dollar denominated commercial loans plus 0.15% to 1.30%. Under the ratings based pricing, undrawn amounts under the Credit Facility are subject to a stand-by fee of 0.23% to 0.46% per annum, dependent on the Company's credit rating and subject to pricing adjustments based on sustainability performance ratings and scores. The Credit Facility matures on November 24, 2028.

The Company has senior notes of $283.0 million in aggregate principal with a 4.625% coupon and maturing in December 2027; and senior notes of $500.0 million in aggregate principal with a 2.63% coupon and maturing in August 2031 (collectively "Senior Notes"). The Senior Notes are unsecured with interest payable semi-annually. Each series of Senior Notes is redeemable, in whole or in part, at the Company's option, at any time prior to maturity, subject to make-whole provisions. The Senior Notes are accreted to the face value over their respective terms and were recorded at fair value upon acquisition using an effective interest rate of 5.52%.
In the normal course of business, the Company enters into contracts that give rise to commitments for future minimum payments, details of which are described in Note 10(f)(ii) of the 2024 Annual Financial Statements, and in the "Liquidity and Financial Position" section of the Company's annual 2024 Management Discussion and Analysis (the "2024 Annual MD&A"). Since December 31, 2024, there have been no significant changes to these contractual obligations and commitments.
Outstanding Share Amounts
As at June 30, 2025, the Company had approximately 0.3 million stock options outstanding (each exercisable for one common share of the Company). Approximately 0.1 million of the stock options were vested and exercisable at June 30, 2025, with an average weighted exercise price of CAD $23.25 per share. The Company also had approximately 0.1 million restricted share units ("RSUs") outstanding that it will settle in common shares upon vesting with a weighted average grant date fair value of CAD $31.61 per unit (the remaining 0.8 million outstanding RSUs as at June 30, 2025 will either be settled in cash or common shares at the Company's discretion for those issued prior to 2024, or will be settled in cash or common shares at the election of the counterparties, provided however, that the Company ultimately retains discretion to settle such RSUs in cash or common shares notwithstanding such election).
On March 4, 2024, the Company obtained approval of its NCIB from the TSX and the NYSE to purchase for cancellation up to 18,232,990 common shares between March 6, 2024 and March 5, 2025. On March 6, 2025, the Company renewed the NCIB until March 5, 2026 for the ability to purchase up to 18,107,917 of its common shares for cancellation. Daily purchases (other than pursuant to a block purchase exemption) on the TSX and NYSE under the NCIB are limited to a maximum of 186,936 common shares and 25% of the average trading volume for the Company's common shares in the four calendar weeks preceding the date of purchase, respectively.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, 459,058 and 1,368,070 (2024 - nil and 1,720,366) common shares were repurchased for cancellation under NCIB at an average price of $24.22 and $22.74 per share for a total consideration of $11.1 million and $31.1 million, respectively (2024 - average price of $nil and $14.16 per share for total consideration of $nil and $24.3 million, respectively).
The following table sets out the common shares, options, and equity-settled RSUs outstanding as at the date of this MD&A:

(tabular amounts are in millions of U.S. dollars and thousands of shares, options,
and warrants except per share amounts and per ounce amounts, unless otherwise noted)
Closure and Decommissioning Provision
The estimated future closure and decommissioning costs are based principally on the requirements of relevant authorities and the Company’s environmental policies. The provision is measured using Management’s assumptions and estimates for future cash outflows. The Company accrues these costs, which are determined by discounting costs using rates specific to the underlying obligation. Upon recognition of a liability for the closure and decommissioning costs, the Company capitalizes these costs to the related mine and amortizes such amounts over the life of each mine on a unit-of-production basis except in the case of exploration projects and closed sites for which the offset to the liability is expensed. The accretion of the discount due to the passage of time is recognized as an increase in the liability and finance expense.
The total inflated and undiscounted amount of estimated cash flows required to settle the Company’s estimated future closure and decommissioning costs as of June 30, 2025 was $680.5 million (December 31, 2024 - $683.1 million) using an inflation rate of 2.7% (December 31, 2024 - 2.5%). The inflated and discounted provision on the statement of financial position as at June 30, 2025 was $454.7 million (December 31, 2024 - $438.4 million), using discount rates between 3% and 9% (December 31, 2024 - between 3% and 10%). Spending with respect to decommissioning obligations commenced in 2016 at Alamo Dorado and Manantial Espejo, and in 2024 at Dolores. The remainder of the obligations are expected to be substantially paid through 2075, or later if the mine lives are extended. Revisions made to the reclamation obligations in H1 2025 were primarily a result of updates to assumed inflation and discount rates, increased site disturbances from ongoing operations, periodic reviews of closure plans and related costs, actual expenditures incurred, and completed closure activities. These obligations will be funded from operating cash flows, reclamation deposits, and cash on hand.
The accretion of the discount charged in Q2 2025 and H1 2025 as finance expense was $6.5 million and $13.1 million, respectively (Q2 2024 and H1 2024 - $7.9 million and $15.8 million, respectively). Reclamation expenditures incurred during Q2 2025 and H1 2025 were $3.9 million and $7.2 million, respectively (Q2 2024 and H1 2024 - $6.4 million and $12.5 million, respectively).

ALTERNATIVE PERFORMANCE (NON-GAAP) MEASURES
Per Ounce Measures
Cash Costs and AISC are non-GAAP financial measures that do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS Accounting Standards and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies.
Pan American produces by-product metals incidentally to our silver and gold mining activities. We have adopted the practice of calculating a performance measure with the net cost of producing an ounce of silver and gold, our primary payable metals, after deducting revenues gained from incidental by-product production. This performance measurement has been commonly used in the mining industry for many years and was developed as a relatively simple way of comparing the net production costs of the primary metal for a specific period against the prevailing market price of that metal. 
Silver Segment Cash Costs and AISC are calculated net of credits for realized revenues from all metals other than silver ("silver segment by-product credits"), and are calculated per ounce of silver sold. Gold Segment Cash Costs and AISC are calculated net of credits for realized revenues from all metals other than gold ("gold segment by-product credits"), and are calculated per ounce of gold sold.
Cash Costs per ounce metrics, net of by-product credits, is used extensively in our internal decision-making processes. We believe the metric is also useful to investors because it facilitates comparison, on a mine-by-mine basis, notwithstanding the unique mix of incidental by-product production at each mine, of our operations’ relative performance on a period-by-period basis, and against the operations of our peers in the silver industry. Cash costs per ounce is conceptually understood and widely reported in the mining industry.
We believe that AISC, also calculated net of by-products, is a more comprehensive measure of the cost of operating our consolidated business, given it includes the cost of replacing silver and gold ounces through exploration, the cost of ongoing capital investments at current operations ("sustaining capital"), as well as other items that affect the Company’s consolidated cash flow. AISC excludes capital investments that are expected to increase production levels or mine life beyond those contemplated in the base case life of mine plan ("project capital").
To facilitate a better understanding of these measure as calculated by the Company, the following table provides the detailed reconciliation of these measure to the applicable cost items, as reported in the consolidated financial statements for the respective periods.

(tabular amounts are in millions of U.S. dollars and thousands of shares, options,
and warrants except per share amounts and per ounce amounts, unless otherwise noted)
Adjusted Earnings
Adjusted earnings and basic adjusted earnings per share are non-GAAP measures that the Company considers to better reflect normalized earnings because it eliminates items that in Management's judgment are subject to volatility as a result of factors that are unrelated to operations in the period, and/or relate to items that will settle in future periods. Certain items that become applicable in a period may be adjusted for, with the Company retroactively presenting comparable periods with an adjustment for such items and conversely, items no longer applicable may be removed from the calculation. The Company adjusts certain items in the periods that they occurred, but does not reverse or otherwise unwind the effect of such items in future periods. Neither adjusted earnings nor basic adjusted earnings per share have any standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies.
The following table shows a reconciliation of adjusted earnings for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, to the net earnings for each period.

Total Debt
Total debt is a non-GAAP measure calculated as the total current and non-current portions of: debt (including senior notes and amounts drawn on the Credit Facility), and lease obligations. Total debt does not have any standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and is therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. The Company and certain investors use this information to evaluate the financial debt leverage of the Company.
Capital
Capital is a non-GAAP measure and is calculated as total equity plus total debt less cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments. Capital does not have any standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and is therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. The Company and certain investors use this information to evaluate the enterprise value of the Company.

Working Capital
Working capital is a non-GAAP measure calculated as current assets less current liabilities. Working capital does not have any standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and is therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. The Company and certain investors use this information to evaluate whether the Company is able to meet its current obligations using its current assets.
RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
The Company is exposed to many risks in conducting its business, including but not limited to: metal price risk as the Company derives its revenue from the sale of silver, gold, zinc, lead, and copper; trading and credit risk in the normal course of dealing with other companies; foreign exchange risk as the Company reports its financial statements in USD whereas the Company operates in jurisdictions that utilize other currencies; risks relating to cyber security; the inherent risk of uncertainties in estimating mineral reserves and mineral resources; political, economic and social risks related to conducting business in jurisdictions such as Canada, Peru, Mexico, Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, Brazil and Guatemala; environmental risks; and risks related to its relations with employees and local communities where we operate. Certain of these risks, and additional risks and uncertainties, are described below, and are more fully described in Pan American’s Annual Information Form dated February 19, 2025 (available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca) and Form 40-F filed with the SEC, and in the Financial Instruments section of the 2024 Annual Financial Statements and the Q2 2025 Financial Statements. Readers are encouraged to refer to these documents for a more detailed description of some of the risks and uncertainties inherent to Pan American’s business.
Financial Risk Exposure
The Company is exposed to financial risks, including metal price risk, credit risk, interest rate risk, foreign currency exchange rate risk, and liquidity risk. The Company's exposures and management of each of those risks is described in the 2024 Annual Financial Statements under Note 10 "Financial Instruments" and in the Q2 2025 Financial Statements under Note 4 "Financial Instruments", along with the financial statement classification, the significant assumptions made in determining the fair value, and amounts of income, expenses, gains and losses associated with financial instruments. Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information and information about the financial instrument. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and, therefore, cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates. There were no significant changes to those risks or to the Company's management of exposure to those risks during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025.
The following provides a description of the risks related to financial instruments and how Management manages these risks:
Price Risk
A decrease in the market price of commodities such as silver, gold and other metals and increase in the price of consumables could affect our profitability, along with the commercial viability of our mines and production from some of our mining properties. Consistent with the Company’s mission to provide equity investors with exposure to changes in precious metal prices, the Company’s current policy is to not hedge the price of precious metals. From time to time, Pan American mitigates the price risk associated with its base metal production by committing some of its future production under forward sales or option contracts. However, decisions relating to hedging may have material adverse effects on our financial performance, financial position, and results of operations. The Board of Directors continually assesses Pan American’s strategy towards our base metal exposure, depending on market conditions.
The Company did not have any base metal or diesel contracts outstanding during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 or 2024.

(tabular amounts are in millions of U.S. dollars and thousands of shares, options,
and warrants except per share amounts and per ounce amounts, unless otherwise noted)
Trading Activities and Credit Risk
The zinc, lead, copper, and silver concentrates produced by the Company are sold through long-term supply arrangements to metal traders or integrated mining and smelting companies. The terms of the concentrate contracts may require us to deliver concentrate that has a value greater than the payment received at the time of delivery, thereby introducing us to credit risk of the buyers of our concentrates. Should any of these counterparties not honour our contractual arrangements, or should any of them become insolvent, we may incur losses for products already shipped and be forced to sell our concentrates in the spot market or we may not have a market for our concentrates and therefore our future operating results may be materially adversely impacted.
As at June 30, 2025, we had receivable balances associated with buyers of our concentrates of $36.0 million (December 31, 2024 - $31.2 million). The vast majority of our concentrate is sold to a limited number of concentrate buyers.
Doré production is refined under long-term agreements with fixed refining terms at seven separate refineries worldwide. The Company generally retains the title to the precious metals throughout the process of refining and therefore is exposed to the risk that the refineries will not be able to perform in accordance with the refining contract and that the Company may not be able to fully recover precious metals in such circumstances. As at June 30, 2025, we had approximately $41.8 million (December 31, 2024 - $68.8 million) contained in precious metal inventory at refineries. The Company maintains insurance coverage against the loss of precious metals at the Company’s mine sites, and in-transit to refineries. Risk is transferred to the refineries at various stages from mine site to refinery.
Refined silver and gold are sold in the spot market to various bullion traders and banks. Credit risk may arise from these activities if we are not paid for metal at the time it is delivered, as required by spot sale contracts.
The Company maintains trading facilities with several banks and bullion dealers for the purposes of transacting the Company’s metal sales. None of these facilities are subject to margin arrangements. The Company’s trading activities can expose the Company to the credit risk of its counterparties to the extent that the trading positions have a positive mark-to-market value.
Supplier advances for products and services yet to be provided are a common practice in some jurisdictions in which we operate. These advances represent a credit risk to us to the extent that suppliers do not deliver products or perform services as expected. As at June 30, 2025, we had made $7.9 million of supplier advances (December 31, 2024 - $6.7 million), which are reflected in "Trade and other receivables" on the Q2 2025 Financial Statements.
Management constantly monitors and assesses the credit risk resulting from its refining arrangements, concentrate sales and commodity contracts with its refiners, supplier advances, trading counterparties and customers. Furthermore, Management carefully considers credit risk when allocating prospective sales and refining business to counterparties. In making allocation decisions, Management attempts to avoid unacceptable concentration of credit risk to any single counterparty.
From time to time, we may invest in equity securities of other companies. Just as investing in Pan American is inherent with risks such as those set out in this MD&A, by investing in other companies we will be exposed to the risks associated with owning equity securities and those risks inherent in the investee companies.

Foreign currency exchange rate risk
We report our financial statements in USD; however we operate in jurisdictions that utilize other currencies. As a consequence, the financial results of our operations, as reported in USD, are subject to changes in the value of the USD relative to local currencies. Since our sales are denominated in USD and a portion of our operating costs and capital spending are in local currencies, we are negatively impacted by strengthening local currencies relative to the USD and positively impacted by the inverse. From time to time, we mitigate part of this currency exposure by accumulating local currencies, entering into contracts designed to fix or limit our exposure to changes in the value of local currencies relative to the USD, or assuming liability positions to offset financial assets subject to currency risk.

Credit Rating
There can be no assurance that the credit ratings and outlook assigned to the Company's debt securities or to the Company will remain in effect for any given period of time or that any such rating or outlook will not be revised downward or withdrawn entirely by a rating agency. Real or anticipated changes in credit ratings or outlook assigned to the Company’s debt securities will generally affect the market price of its debt securities. In addition,

real or anticipated changes in its credit ratings may also affect the cost at which the Company can access the capital markets. If such ratings decline and its cost of accessing capital markets increases, the Company may not be able to fund proposed capital expenditures and other operations in the future.
Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that we will not be able to meet our financial obligations as they come due. The volatility of the metals markets can impact our ability to forecast cash flow from operations.
We must maintain sufficient liquidity to meet our short-term business requirements, taking into account our anticipated cash flows from operations, our holdings of cash and cash equivalents, and committed loan facilities.
We manage our liquidity risk by continuously monitoring forecasted and actual cash flows. We have in place a rigorous reporting, planning and budgeting process to help determine the funds required to support our normal operating requirements on an ongoing basis and our expansion plans. We continually evaluate and review capital and operating expenditures in order to identify, decrease, and limit all non-essential expenditures.
We are required to use a portion of our cash flow to service principal and interest on debt, which will limit the cash flow available for other business opportunities. We also maintain and enter into intercompany credit arrangements with our subsidiaries in the normal course. Our ability to make scheduled principal payments, pay interest on or refinance our indebtedness depends on our future performance, which is subject to economic, financial, competitive and other factors beyond our control. Unexpected delays in production, the suspension of our mining licenses, or other operational problems could impact our ability to service the debt and make necessary capital expenditures when the debt becomes due. If we are unable to generate such cash flow to timely repay any debt outstanding, we may be required to adopt one or more alternatives, such as selling assets, restructuring debt or obtaining additional equity capital on terms that may be onerous or highly dilutive. Our ability to refinance our indebtedness will depend on the capital markets and our financial condition at such time. We may not be able to engage in any of these activities or engage in these activities on desirable terms, which could result in a default on our debt obligations.
While we have paid dividends to our shareholders for many years, the payment of dividends is impacted by our cash flows and liquidity situation. The payment of any future dividends is at the discretion of our Board of Directors after taking into account many factors, including availability of and sources of cash, future anticipated funding needs, our debt position, general and regional economic conditions, and expectations with respect to operational matters such as anticipated metals production and metals prices. There can be no assurance that dividends will continue to be paid in the future or on the same terms as are currently paid by Pan American.
Foreign Operations and Political Risk
The Company holds mining and exploration properties in Peru, Mexico, Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Canada, the United States, and Guatemala, exposing it to the socioeconomic conditions, as well as the laws governing the mining industry in those countries. Inherent risks with conducting foreign operations include, but are not limited to: high rates of inflation; military repression; war or civil war; social and labour unrest; organized crime; hostage taking; terrorism; uncertain and evolving legal and regulatory environments; violent crime; extreme fluctuations in currency exchange rates; expropriation and nationalization; renegotiation or nullification of existing concessions, licenses, permits and contracts; illegal mining; changes in taxation policies, including carbon taxes; restrictions on foreign exchange and repatriation; tariffs and countervailing duties imposed on cross-border trade; and changing political norms, currency controls and governmental regulations that favour or require the Company to award contracts in, employ citizens of, or purchase supplies from, a particular jurisdiction.
Changes, if any, in mining or investment policies or shifts in political priorities in any of the jurisdictions in which the Company operates may adversely affect the Company’s operations or profitability. Operations may be affected in varying degrees by government regulations with respect to, but not limited to, restrictions on production, price controls, export controls, currency remittance, importation of parts and supplies, income, carbon and other taxes, expropriation or restrictions on the ownership of property, foreign investment, maintenance of claims, environmental legislation, land use, land claims of local people, water use and mine safety.

(tabular amounts are in millions of U.S. dollars and thousands of shares, options,

has in the past and continues to have many highly restrictive policies with respect to foreign investment, currency controls, taxation, import and export controls, and restrictions on the ownership and use of lands, including bans on mining and the use of cyanide in certain provinces and restrictions on the amount of lands that foreign entities, directly or indirectly, can have an ownership interest in. In some cases, this may result in the loss of properties or rights that are valuable or that might otherwise be beneficial or needed in connection with our operations.
As governments continue to struggle with deficits and concerns over the effects of depressed economies, the mining and metals sector has often been identified as a source of revenue. Taxation and royalties are often subject to change and are vulnerable to increases in both poor and good economic times, especially in many resource-rich countries. Tax authorities have also increased challenges to legitimate tax planning through applying general anti-avoidance rules (GAAR), or similar tax provisions, which are intended to deny tax benefits to tax payors that, although complying with a literal reading of the provisions of the tax rules, are allegedly not in compliance with the object, spirit or purpose of the legislation. Audits and inquiries have become more frequent and extensive, consuming significant management time and attention. The addition of new taxes, the re-interpretation of existing tax laws and regulations, and increasingly aggressive and sometimes groundless positions taken by tax authorities, specifically those aimed at mining companies, could have a significant impact on our operations and may have material direct affects on our profitability and our financial results. In some cases, if tax claims are resolved against that Company, these could also include significant interest and penalties. Such tax matters are increasingly being seen in the jurisdictions in which we operate.
In 2020 and 2021, Argentina also issued several Decrees that imposed additional taxes on the export of gold and silver dore. Following their enactment, export of gold dore bars were taxed at a rate of 8% until December 31 2023, and exports of silver dore have been taxed at a 4.5% rate. While the tax rate on exports of gold dore bars is currently 0% since the earlier Decree was not extended past the end of 2023, the government of Argentina could introduce new legislation to reestablish or increase the previous or existing export tax rates on gold and silver. On June 16, 2021, the Argentine government also enacted legislation that increased the corporate tax rate from 25% to 35% and maintains the dividend withholding tax rate at 7% retroactive to January 1, 2021. The unique and uncertain regulatory and economic situation in Argentina has also separately resulted in heightened complexity in the interpretation of tax laws and regulations and this could result in additional tax risk in the country, which could be significant.
On September 25, 2024, the Congress of Chile approved a tax reform bill which was subsequently approved by the Chilean Constitutional Court and became law on October 21, 2024. The legislation made changes to the country’s tax legislation and introduced new compliance rules, including modifying general anti-avoidance rules and establishing penalty interest rates. In addition, there was a Specific Mining Tax Bill enacted in May 2023 (the "Tax Bill"). The Tax Bill was effective January 1, 2024 and imposed a new mining royalty of 1% of ad valorem value on copper and lithium and removed the deduction of the mining tax previously allowed in calculating the mining tax payable. On March 26, 2025, Law No. 21,735 was published in the Official Gazette in Chile. This law restructured the pension financing system through an increase in the employer contribution rate, requiring an additional 7% contribution from employers, to be implemented gradually over a period of 9 years.
In December 2022, the Brazilian government introduced new transfer pricing rules that would see Brazil adopt the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (“OECD”) arm length’s principal for cross-border transactions. These rules would align Brazil with OECD countries and pave the way for Brazil to join the OECD. The rules came into effect on January 1, 2024.
On May 8, 2023, the Mexican government enacted a decree to reform various provisions of the mining law (the "Decree"), which was published in the Official Gazette and became law on May 9, 2023. The Decree makes significant changes to the current mining laws, including but not limited to: reducing mining license concession terms; restricting the granting of mining concessions requiring public auctions; imposing conditions on water use and availability; imposing regulations on mining concession transfers; imposing additional grounds for cancellation of mining concessions and further limitations on mining in protected areas; granting preferential rights to mining strategic minerals to state owned enterprises; imposing additional requirements for financial instruments to be provided to guarantee preventive, mitigation, and compensation measures resulting from the social impact

assessment, as well as potential damages that may occur during mining activities; and potentially requiring Indigenous Peoples’ (ILO 169) consultation. These changes to the mining law are expected to have impacts on our current and future exploration activities and operations in Mexico, the extent of which is yet to be determined but which could be material. Additional Constitutional reforms were presented by the then President of Mexico in February 2024. Some of these reforms have the potential to impact mining in Mexico, including further restrictions on water use, the granting of future concessions for open pit mining, and increased public consultation requirements. These reforms are not law and still need to pass through a legislative process for amendment of the Constitution of Mexico, and will likely face legal challenges if they do. It is notable that the previous May 2023 mining law reforms introduced by the President have still not been implemented and have been challenged by many mining companies, as well as Congress, on Constitutional grounds. In September 2024, the Mexican Congress also approved a sweeping judicial reform that will allow for the popular election of judges, including to Mexico’s Supreme Court. These changes are expected to further politicize the Mexican judicial system creating further uncertainty with respect to the application of Mexican laws. Presidential and congressional elections were held in June 2024, and a member of the former President’s Moreno party was elected President for a term of 6-years commencing October 1, 2024.
Criminal activity and violence are also prevalent in some areas that we work in. For example, violence in Mexico is well documented and has, over time, been increasing. Conflicts between the drug cartels and violent confrontations with authorities are not uncommon. Operations at our La Colorada mine were temporarily suspended in October 2023 due to security concerns at the mine site and surrounding area following an armed robbery of two trailers of concentrate from the operation. Other criminal activity, such as kidnapping and extortion, is also an ongoing concern. Many incidents of crime and violence go unreported and efforts by police and other authorities to reduce criminal activity are challenged by a lack of resources, corruption and the pervasiveness of organized crime. Incidents of criminal activity have occasionally affected our employees and our contractors and their families, as well as the communities in the vicinity of our operations. Such incidents may prevent access to our mines or offices; halt or delay our operations and production; result in harm to employees, contractors, visitors or community members; increase employee absenteeism; create or increase tension in nearby communities; or otherwise adversely affect our ability to conduct business. We can provide no assurance that the La Colorada security incident or other security incidents, in the future, will not have a material adverse effect on our operations.
Claims and Legal Proceedings
Pan American is subject to various claims and legal proceedings covering a wide range of matters that arise in the ordinary course of business activities. The nature, assessment and management of such claims are described in this section, and in Note 30 of the 2024 Annual Financial Statements. There were no significant changes to those risks or to the Company's management of exposure to those risks during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025. These claims and legal proceedings include, among others, numerous individual labour and tax claims in Argentina and Brazil and exposures with respect to contractual indemnities, some of which could be significant. While many of these claims may not be considered material individually and, in some cases, may be settled for amounts much less than the original amounts claimed, the aggregate amounts claimed against us, if successful, could be material.
In Peru, there are many claims from current or ex-employees, or employees of former or current owners of our operations such as the Quiruvilca-related claims in Peru, which could in the aggregate, be of significant value, and include alleged improper dismissals, workplace illnesses, such as silicosis, and claims for additional profit-sharing and bonuses in prior years. In some cases, we may also be subject to collective settlement obligations with our employees and contractors relating to closures of our operations, and such obligations may be significant.
In early May 2021, Pan American Silver Guatemala S.A. ("PAS Guatemala") and the Guatemala Ministry of Energy and Mines were served with legal proceedings that were originated in the Constitutional Court of Guatemala by a small group of residents and landowners, or alleged residents and landowners, from the La Cuchilla community near the Escobal mine claiming that prior mining activities damaged their lands. Currently, operations at Escobal

are suspended pending the completion of the government-led ILO 169 consultation process. Nevertheless, the action sought injunctive relief to prevent future mining activities at Escobal. The claims and related request for an injunction against both the Guatemala Ministry of Energy and Mines and against PAS Guatemala have subsequently been denied by the Constitutional Court.
As reported in our most recently filed Annual Information Form, certain individuals have asserted community rights and land ownership over a portion of the La Colorada mine’s surface lands in the Agrarian Courts of Mexico. We successfully defended this proceeding, which was rejected and dismissed by the Agrarian Courts. This decision was then subject to a number of appeals in the Agrarian Appeal Court and Federal Circuit Courts, which appeals were finally concluded in June 2024 confirming the Agrarian court’s rejection of these claims to communal land rights and definitively confirming La Colorada’s legal ownership of these lands. These individuals have also initiated a process before the Secretariat of Agrarian, Territorial and Urban Development (“SEDATU”) in Zacatecas to declare such lands as national property. In 2019, we filed an amparo against such process and obtained an injunction to protect its ownership of these surface rights pending the outcome of the amparo and a further review by SEDATU. Our challenge was dismissed in October 2021, primarily on the basis that no final declaration of national lands had yet been made by SEDATU that would affect our property rights. We appealed this dismissal, which was also rejected on the same procedural grounds. The matter is now before the national office of SEDATU for further consideration and we will continue to oppose the SEDATU process and the application for a declaration of national lands. While we believe that we hold proper title to the surface lands in question, if we are unable to maintain, or maintain access to, those surface rights, there could be material adverse impacts on the La Colorada mine’s future mining operations.
We may also be subject to proceedings in our commercial relationships. From time to time, we may also experience disputes relating to past transactions or which are related to entities or operations previously owned by the Company. While we would, where available and appropriate to do so, defend against any such allegations, if we are unsuccessful in our defense of these claims, we may be subject to significant losses.
Each of these matters is subject to various uncertainties and it is possible that some of these matters may be resolved unfavorably against us. We establish provisions for matters that are probable and can be reasonably estimated. We also carry liability insurance coverage, however, such insurance does not cover all risks to which we might be exposed and in other cases, may only partially cover losses incurred by us. In addition, we may be involved in disputes with other parties in the future that may result in litigation, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial or operating position, cash flow and results of operations.
Climate Change
There is significant evidence of the effects of climate change on our planet and an intensifying focus on addressing these issues. The Company recognizes that climate change is a global challenge that may have both favorable and adverse effects on our business in a range of possible ways. Mining and processing operations are energy intensive and result in a carbon footprint either directly or through the purchase of fossil-fuel based electricity. As such, the Company is impacted by current and emerging policy and regulation relating to greenhouse gas emission levels, energy efficiency, and reporting of climate change related risks. While some of the costs associated with reducing emissions may be offset by increased energy efficiency, technological innovation, or the increased demand for our metals as part of technological innovations, the current regulatory trend may result in additional transition costs at some of our operations. Governments are introducing climate change legislation and treaties at the international, national, and local levels, and regulations relating to emission levels and energy efficiency are evolving and becoming more rigorous. Current laws and regulatory requirements are not consistent across the jurisdictions in which we operate, and regulatory uncertainty is likely to result in additional complexity and cost in our compliance efforts. Public perception of mining is, in some respects, negative and there is increasing pressure to curtail mining in many jurisdictions as a result, in part, of perceived adverse effects of mining on the environment.
Concerns around climate change may also affect the market price of our shares as institutional investors and others may divest interests in industries that are thought to have more environmental impacts. While we are

committed to operating responsibly and reducing the negative effects of our operations on the environment, our ability to reduce emissions, energy and water usage by increasing efficiency and by adopting new innovation is constrained by technological advancement, operational factors and economics. Adoption of new technologies, the use of renewable energy, and infrastructure and operational changes necessary to reduce water usage may also increase our costs significantly. Concerns over climate change, and our ability to respond to regulatory requirements and societal expectations, may have significant impacts on our operations and on our reputation, and may even result in reduced demand for our products.
The physical risks of climate change could also adversely impact our operations. These risks include, among other things, extreme weather events, resource shortages, changes in rainfall and in storm patterns and intensities, water shortages, changing sea levels and extreme temperatures. Climate-related events such as mudslides, floods, droughts and fires can have significant impacts, directly and indirectly, on our operations and could result in damage to our facilities, disruptions in accessing our sites with labour and essential materials or in shipping products from our mines, risks to the safety and security of our personnel and to communities, shortages of required supplies such as fuel and chemicals, inability to source enough water to supply our operations, and the temporary or permanent cessation of one or more of our operations. There is no assurance that we will be able to successfully anticipate, respond to, or manage the risks associated with physical climate change events and impacts, and this may result in material adverse consequences to our business and to our financial results.
There are increasing legal and regulatory requirements with respect to climate change and sustainability disclosure, including the European Union Commission Directive on Corporate Sustainability Reporting (“CSRD”). The CSRD is expected to result in a significant increase in the number of companies subject to the European Union sustainability reporting requirements and require an increase in the amount of information to be disclosed by companies. In early 2025, the European Commission began the process to simplify and delay the application of the CSRD reporting requirements for certain companies. The CSRD is likely to impact one or more of our operation’s holding companies.
In addition, in June 2024, Bill C-59 became law and amended Canada’s Competition Act to introduce anti-greenwashing provisions that aim to enhance the accountability of businesses making net-zero and carbon reduction commitments, and other environmental and social claims. Reviewable conduct now includes unsubstantiated claims made to the public about the benefits of a product, business, or business activity related to protecting or restoring the environment, or mitigating the environmental, ecological, and social causes or effects of climate change. This legislation provides further powers to the Commissioner of Competition to conduct both criminal and civil investigations into false, misleading or unsubstantiated environmental or social claims and may result in unlimited fines and even prison sentences. In addition, this legislation provides rights to private parties to file complaints and bring civil actions against companies for damages, including obtaining protective orders.

Significant judgements
In preparing financial statements in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards, Management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements. These critical accounting estimates represent Management's estimates and judgments that are uncertain and any changes in these could materially impact the Company’s financial statements. Management continuously reviews its estimates, judgments, and assumptions using the most current information available.
Readers should also refer to Note 3 of the 2024 Annual Financial Statements, for the Company's summary of material accounting policies, and Note 5 of the 2024 Annual Financial Statements that summarizes the significant judgments in applying accounting policies.
DISCLOSURE AND INTERNAL CONTROL PROCEDURES
The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate disclosure controls and procedures (“DC&P”) and internal control over financial reporting (“ICFR”).
DC&P
Our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) are responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate DC&P. Under the supervision and with the participation of our CEO and CFO, we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our DC&P in accordance with requirements of National Instrument 52-109 of the Canadian Securities Commission (“NI 52-109”) and the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002 (as adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC")).
As of December 31, 2024, based on the evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that our DC&P were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports we file or submit is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in securities legislation and is accumulated and communicated to our Management, including our CEO and CFO.
ICFR
Our CEO and CFO are responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate ICFR. Under the supervision and with the participation of our CEO and CFO, we evaluated the effectiveness of our ICFR as of December 31, 2024 based upon the Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on the evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that our ICFR was effective as of December 31, 2024. Management reviewed the results of Management’s evaluation with the Audit Committee of the Board.
The effectiveness of the Company’s ICFR as of December 31, 2024 has been audited by Deloitte LLP, Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm as stated in their report immediately preceding the Company’s 2024 Annual Financial Statements.
Changes in ICFR
There has been no change in the Company's ICFR during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, its ICFR.
Inherent limitations of controls and procedures
All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. As a result, even systems determined to be effective may not prevent or detect misstatements on a timely basis, as systems can provide only reasonable assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. In addition, projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of ICFR to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may change.

These assumptions, some of which are described in the “Risks and Uncertainties” section of this MD&A, include: the impact of inflation and disruptions to the global, regional and local supply chains; the potential imposition and impact of tariffs and other trade barriers and restrictions, that could impact the financial results of the Company; tonnage of ore to be mined and processed; future anticipated prices for gold, silver and other metals and assumed foreign exchange rates; the timing and impact of planned capital expenditure projects, including anticipated sustaining, project, and exploration expenditures; the ongoing impact and timing of: the court-mandated ILO 169 consultation process in Guatemala, the SEDATU process in Mexico, and the changes to Mexican mining law; ore grades and recoveries; capital, decommissioning and reclamation estimates; our mineral reserve and mineral resource estimates and the assumptions upon which they are based; whether Pan American is able to maintain a strong financial condition and have sufficient capital, or have access to capital through the Credit Facility or otherwise, to sustain our business and operations; prices for energy inputs, labour, materials, supplies and services (including transportation); positive credit ratings; no labour-related disruptions at any of our operations; no unplanned delays or interruptions in scheduled production; all necessary permits, licenses and regulatory approvals for our operations are received in a timely manner; our ability to secure and maintain title and ownership to mineral properties and the surface rights necessary for our operations, including contractual rights from third parties and adjacent property owners; and our ability to comply with environmental, health and safety laws. The foregoing list of assumptions is not exhaustive.
The Company cautions the reader that forward-looking statements and information involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results and developments to differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements or information contained in this MD&A and the Company has made assumptions and estimates based on or related to many of these factors. Such factors include, without limitation: fluctuations in silver, gold, and base metal prices; fluctuations in prices for energy inputs; fluctuations in currency markets (such as the PEN, MXN, ARS, BOB, GTQ and CAD versus the USD); fluctuations in market interest rates; risks related to the technological and operational nature of the Company’s business; risks related to increased barriers to trade, including tariffs and duties; changes in national and local government, legislation, taxation, controls or regulations and political, judicial, legal or economic developments in Canada, the United States, Mexico, Peru, Argentina, Bolivia, Guatemala or other countries where the Company may carry on business, some of which might prevent or cause the suspension or discontinuation of mining activities, including the risk of expropriation related to certain of our operations, and risks related to: the constitutional court-mandated ILO 169 consultation process in Guatemala, the SEDATU process in Mexico, and the changes to Mexican mining law; risks and hazards associated with the business of mineral exploration, development and mining (including environmental hazards, industrial accidents, unusual or unexpected

Although the Company has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially, there may be other factors that cause results not to be as anticipated, estimated, described, or intended. Investors are cautioned against attributing undue certainty or reliance on forward-looking statements or information. Forward-looking statements and information are designed to help readers understand management's current views of our near- and longer-term prospects and may not be appropriate for other purposes. The Company does not intend, and does not assume any obligation, to update or revise forward-looking statements or information to reflect changes in assumptions or in circumstances or any other events affecting such statements or information, other than as required by applicable law.
Cautionary Note to US Investors Regarding References to Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources
Unless otherwise indicated, all reserve and resource estimates included in this MD&A have been prepared in accordance with NI 43-101 and the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (the “CIM”) — CIM Definition Standards on Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves, adopted by the CIM Council, as amended (the “CIM Standards”). NI 43-101 is a rule developed by the Canadian Securities Administrators that establishes standards for all public disclosure an issuer makes of scientific and technical information concerning mineral projects. Canadian standards, including NI 43-101, differ significantly from the requirements of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), and reserve and resource information included herein may not be comparable to similar information disclosed by U.S. companies. In particular, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this MD&A uses the terms “measured resources,” “indicated resources” and “inferred resources” as defined in accordance with NI 43-101 and the CIM Standards. Mineralization described using these terms has a greater amount of uncertainty as to its existence and feasibility than mineralization that has been characterized as reserves. Accordingly, U.S. investors are cautioned not to assume that any measured mineral resources, indicated mineral resources, or inferred mineral resources that the Company reports are or will be economically or legally mineable. Further, “inferred mineral resources” have a greater amount of uncertainty as to their existence and as to whether they can be mined legally or economically. Under Canadian securities laws, estimates of “inferred mineral resources” may not form the basis of feasibility or pre-feasibility studies, except in rare cases. While the above terms under the U.S. Rules are “substantially similar” to the standards under NI 43-101 and CIM Standards, there are differences in the definitions under the U.S. Rules and CIM Standards. Accordingly, there is no assurance any mineral reserves or mineral resources that the Company may report as “proven mineral reserves”, “probable mineral reserves”, “measured mineral resources”, “indicated mineral resources” and “inferred mineral resources” under NI 43-101 would be the same had the Company prepared the reserve or resource estimates under the standards adopted under the U.S. Rules.
