WHEATON PRECIOUS METALS 2022 SECOND QUARTER REPORT [2]

Overview
Wheaton Precious Metals Corp. is a precious metal streaming company which generates its revenue primarily from the sale of precious metals (gold, silver and palladium) and cobalt. The Company is listed on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) and the London Stock Exchange (“LSE”) and trades under the symbol WPM.
As of June 30, 2022, the Company has entered into 31 long-term purchase agreements (three of which are early deposit agreements), with 24 different mining companies, for the purchase of precious metals and cobalt (“precious metal purchase agreements” or “PMPA”) relating to 21 mining assets which are currently operating, 14 which are at various stages of development and 3 which have been placed in care and maintenance or have been closed, located in 13 countries. Pursuant to the PMPAs, Wheaton acquires metal production from the counterparties for an initial upfront payment plus an additional cash payment for each ounce or pound delivered which is fixed by contract, generally at or below the prevailing market price. Attributable metal production as referred to in this MD&A and financial statements is the metal production to which Wheaton is entitled pursuant to the various PMPAs. During the three months ended June 30, 2022, the per ounce price paid by the Company for the metals acquired under the agreements averaged $465 for gold, $5.61 for silver, $408 for palladium and $6.86 per pound for cobalt. The primary drivers of the Company’s financial results are the volume of metal production at the various mining assets to which the PMPAs relate and the price realized by Wheaton upon the sale of the metals received. Throughout this MD&A, the production and sales volume of gold, silver and palladium are reported in ounces, while cobalt is reported in pounds.

WHEATON PRECIOUS METALS 2022 SECOND QUARTER REPORT [4]

Highlights
Operations
 
 
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, Wheaton generated revenue of $303 million (52% gold, 43% silver, 2% palladium and 3% cobalt) and $610 million (50% gold, 43% silver, 3% palladium and 4% cobalt), respectively.
 
 
 
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, Wheaton’s gold equivalent ounces produced amounted to 162,600 ounces and 333,300 ounces, respectively, a decrease of 15% and 14% relative to the comparable periods of the prior year.
 
 
 
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, Wheaton’s gold equivalent ounces sold amounted to 170,400 ounces and 336,400 ounces, respectively, a decrease of 3% and 4% relative to the comparable periods of the prior year.
 
 
 
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, Wheaton generated operating cash flow of $206 million and $417 million, respectively, a decrease of 5% and 7% relative to the comparable periods of the previous year.
 
 
 
Relative to the comparable three-month period of the prior year:
 
  o
The decrease in attributable gold production was primarily due to lower production at Salobo.
 
  o
The decrease in attributable cobalt production was primarily due to lower throughput resulting from a scheduled maintenance shut down at Voisey’s Bay coupled with lower grades during the ongoing transitional period between the depletion of the Ovoid open-pit mine and ramp-up to full production of the Voisey’s Bay underground project.
 
  o
The decrease in adjusted net earnings was primarily due to lower margins resulting from a 3% decrease in sales volumes and a 5% decrease in the realized sales price, partially offset by lower share based compensation costs.
 
 
 
Relative to the comparable six-month period of the prior year:
 
  o
The decrease in attributable gold production was primarily due to lower throughput and grades at Salobo.
 
  o
The decrease in attributable silver production was primarily due to lower grades at Antamina, consistent with their mine plan.
 
  o
The decrease in attributable cobalt production was primarily due to the comparable period in the prior year including 676,000 pounds of production from prior periods coupled with a scheduled maintenance shutdown during the second quarter of 2022 and the mining of lower grade material.
 
  o
The decrease in adjusted net earnings was primarily the result of lower margins resulting from a 4% decrease in sales volumes and a 3% decrease in realized sales price.
 
 
 
On August 11, 2022, the Board of Directors declared a dividend in the amount of $0.15 per common share.
Other
 
 
 
On July 5, 2022, Hecla Mining Company (“Hecla”) announced a definitive agreement for Hecla to acquire all of the outstanding common shares of Alexco Resource Corp. (“Alexco”). In conjunction with this agreement, the Company has entered into an agreement with Hecla to terminate the Keno Hill PMPA in exchange for $135 million of Hecla common stock conditional upon the completion of Hecla’s acquisition of Alexco.
 
WHEATON PRECIOUS METALS 2022 SECOND QUARTER REPORT [5]

Outlook
1
Given the proposed termination of the Keno Hill PMPA, lower production from Stillwater due to severe weather and flooding in the state of Montana in June as well as lower than expected production at Salobo, Wheaton is lowering production guidance. Wheaton’s estimated attributable production for 2022 is now forecast to be approximately 640,000 to 680,000 gold equivalent ounces
2
(“GEOs”). For the five-year period ending December 31, 2026, average annual production is expected to increase to 820,000 GEO’s
2
, primarily due to anticipated continued production growth from Salobo, Stillwater, Constancia, and Voisey’s Bay as well as incremental production ounces from Marmato, Blackwater, Toroparu, Marathon, the Copper World Complex (formerly referred to as Rosemont in this MD&A) and Santo Domingo towards the latter end of the forecast period. Average forecast production for the ten-year period ending December 31, 2031, is expected to now be 870,000 GEO’s
2
and includes incremental production from the Kutcho project and the Victor mine in Sudbury. Vale S.A. has indicated the potential for an additional expansion after the completion of the current Salobo III expansion, but Wheaton does not currently include this in its forecast.

From a liquidity perspective, the $449 million of cash and cash equivalents as at June 30, 2022 combined with the liquidity provided by the available credit under the $2 billion revolving term loan (“Revolving Facility”) and ongoing operating cash flows positions the Company well to fund all outstanding commitments and known contingencies as well as providing flexibility to acquire additional accretive mineral stream interests.

Statements made in this section contain forward-looking information with respect to forecast production, funding outstanding commitments and continuing to acquire accretive mineral stream interests and readers are cautioned that actual outcomes may vary. Please see “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” for material risks, assumptions and important disclosure associated with this information.
2
 
Gold equivalent forecast production for 2022 and the longer term outlook are based on the following commodity price assumptions: $1,800 / ounce gold, $24 / ounce silver, $2,100 / ounce palladium, $1,000 / ounce platinum and $33.00 / pound of cobalt. Other metal includes palladium, platinum and cobalt. Five- and ten-year guidance do not include optionality production from Pascua Lama, Navidad, Cotabambas, Metates or additional expansions at Salobo outside of the project currently in construction. In addition, five-year guidance also does not include any production from Kutcho, or the Victor project at Sudbury.

Updates on the Mineral Stream Interests
Salobo – Mill Throughput Expansion
The Salobo mine currently has a mill throughput capacity of 24 million tonnes per annum (“Mtpa”). Vale is currently undertaking the Salobo III mine expansion (the “Salobo Expansion”), which is proposed to include a third concentrator line and will use Salobo’s existing infrastructure. As per Vale’s Second Quarter 2022 Performance Report, released on July 28, 2022, Vale outlines the Salobo lll Project progress including the start of commissioning activities at the primary crushing and stockpile areas. Vale has completed successful tests on the process water tank, energization of HPGR’s substation and has continued the electromechanical activities in remaining areas. The remediation works for the January 2022 landslide were completed. Vale reports that physical completion of the Salobo III mine expansion was 95% at the end of the second quarter.
Voisey’s Bay – Underground Mine Extension
As per Vale’s Second Quarter 2022 Performance Report, physical completion of the Voisey’s Bay underground mine extension was 74% at the end of the second quarter. Civil works continue for the balance of facilities, with civil completion planned by the end of 2022.
777 – End of Mine Life
Consistent with the Company’s expectations, on June 22, 2022, Hudbay Minerals Inc. (“Hudbay”) announced that mining activities at the 777 mine have concluded after the reserves were depleted and closure activities have commenced.
Stillwater – Flooding
As per Sibanye-Stillwater Limited’s (“Sibanye-Stillwater”) news release dated August 11, 2022, regional floods impacted the Stillwater operations on June 13, 2022, including damage to bridges and the access road to the Stillwater mine. Operations at the Stillwater mine, which accounts for 60% of the mined production from the Stillwater operations, were suspended for seven weeks, but resumed on July 29, 2022. Access to the East Boulder mine and the Columbus metallurgical facilities remains intact and both facilities continued operating during the flooding events.
Keno Hill
As per Alexco’s news release dated June 22, 2022, Alexco has temporarily suspended milling operations for five to six months to focus on advancing underground development at Keno Hill.
On July 5, 2022, Hecla announced a definitive agreement for Hecla to acquire all of the outstanding common shares of Alexco. In conjunction with this agreement, the Company has entered into an agreement with Hecla to terminate
 
WHEATON PRECIOUS METALS 2022 SECOND QUARTER REPORT [8]

the Keno Hill PMPA in exchange for $135 million of Hecla common stock conditional upon the completion of Hecla’s acquisition of Alexco, together with other customary approvals.
Fenix – Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA)
Under the terms of the Fenix PMPA related to the Fenix Gold project (“Fenix Gold”) in Chile, the Company is committed to pay total cash consideration of $50 million to Rio2 Limited (“Rio2”), of which $25 million was paid on March 25, 2022.
On June 28, 2022, Rio2 provided an update on the Fenix Gold environmental assessment process. The Environmental Assessment Service (“SEA”) published the Consolidation Evaluation Report with the recommendation to reject the EIA as it has been alleged that Rio2 has not provided enough information during the evaluation process to eliminate adverse impacts over the chinchilla, guanaco, and vicuña. On July 5, 2022, Rio2 announced that the Regional Evaluation Commission has voted to not approve the EIA. Following this decision, Rio2 provided a further update on July 11, 2022, stating that Rio2 along with its Chilean environmental and legal advisor, are currently evaluating options to continue to advance the project.
The Company’s management has determined that no indicator of impairment existed as of the balance sheet date and will continue to monitor Rio2’s response to this decision.
Copper World Complex (formerly referred to as Rosemont)
On June 8, 2022, Hudbay announced the results of the preliminary economic assessment (“PEA”) of its 100%-owned Copper World Complex in Arizona, which includes the recently discovered Copper World deposits along with the Rosemont deposit. The PEA highlights a two-phase mine plan, with Phase I reflecting a standalone operation on private land and patented mining claims over a 16-year mine life. Phase II expands mining activities onto federal land and extends the mine life to 44 years. In addition, Hudbay is evaluating several opportunities to optimize the project, including the potential to expand Phase I beyond 16 years with additions to the company’s private land package for tailings and waste rock storage and the potential to accelerate Phase II if federal permits are received earlier than as outlined in the PEA. As per the PEA, Hudbay anticipates the Phase 1 feasibility study and permits should be completed by the end of 2023, with a sanctioning decision by Hudbay in 2024, and construction expected to take three years.

Once 90 million silver equivalent ounces attributable to Wheaton have been produced, the attributable production will decrease to 16.67% of gold production and 66.67% of silver production for the life of mine.
Kutcho – Contract Modifications
As discussed in the Convertible Notes Receivable section of this MD&A, on February 18, 2022, the Company agreed to modify the Kutcho Early Deposit Agreement, including the elimination of the drop-down in attributable gold and silver to 66.7% once certain thresholds had been achieved, and eliminating the requirement to make an additional payment to Kutcho, of up to $20 million, if processing throughput is increased to 4,500 tonnes per day or more within 5 years of attaining commercial production.
Mineral Royalty Interests
On January 5, 2021, the Company paid $3 million for an existing 2.0% net smelter return royalty interest on the first 600,000 ounces of gold mined from ore extracted from the Brewery Creek quartz mineral claims located in the Yukon Territories, Canada owned by Golden Predator Exploration Ltd., a subsidiary of Sabre Gold Mines Corp. (“Golden Predator”) and any mineral tenure derived therefrom, and a 2.75% net smelter returns royalty interest thereafter (the “Brewery Creek Royalty”). The Brewery Creek Royalty agreement provides, among other things, that Golden Predator may reduce the 2.75% net smelter returns royalty interest to 2.125%, on payment of the sum of Cdn$2 million to Wheaton.
Additionally, the Company has a 0.5% net smelter return royalty interest in the Metates properties (the “Metates Royalty”) located in Mexico from Chesapeake Gold Corp. (“Chesapeake”) for the life of mine. The carrying cost of the Metates Royalty is $3 million. The Company also has a right of first refusal on any silver streaming, royalty or any other transaction on the Metates properties.
To date, no revenue has been recognized and no depletion has been taken with respect to these royalty agreements.
Long-Term Equity Investments
The Company will, from time to time, invest in securities of companies for strategic purposes including, but not limited to, exploration and mining companies. The Company held the following investments as at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

Total long-term equity investments
   $         60,799      $         61,477   
The Company’s long-term investments in common shares (“LTI’s”) are held for long-term strategic purposes and not for trading purposes. As such, the Company has elected to reflect any fair value adjustments, net of tax, as a component of other comprehensive income (“OCI”). The cumulative gain or loss will not be reclassified to net earnings on disposal of these long-term investments but is reclassified to retained earnings.
 
WHEATON PRECIOUS METALS 2022 SECOND QUARTER REPORT [10]

While long-term investments in warrants are also held for long-term strategic purposes, they meet the definition of a derivative and therefore are classified as financial assets with fair value adjustments being recorded as a component of net earnings under the classification Other (Income) Expense. Warrants that do not have a quoted market price are valued using a Black-Scholes option pricing model.
By holding these long-term investments, the Company is inherently exposed to various risk factors including currency risk, market price risk and liquidity risk.
A summary of the fair value of these equity investments and the fair value changes recognized as a component of the Company’s OCI during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 is presented below:

Convertible Notes Receivable
Kutcho Copper Corp.
Effective December 14, 2017, in connection with the Kutcho Early Deposit Agreement, the Company advanced to Kutcho $16 million (Cdn$20 million) and received the Kutcho Convertible Note. The Kutcho Convertible Note, which had a seven year term to maturity, carried interest at 10% per annum, compounded and payable semi-annually. Kutcho elected to defer the first seven interest payments. The deferred interest carried interest at 15% per annum, compounded semi-annually.
In addition to the Kutcho Convertible Note, on November 25, 2019, the Company entered into a
non-revolving
term loan with Kutcho, under which Kutcho had drawn $0.8 million (Cdn$1.0 million). The credit facility carried interest at 15% per annum, compounded monthly.
Effective February 18, 2022, the Company agreed to settle and terminate the Kutcho Convertible Note and the
non-revolving
term loan with Kutcho in exchange for shares of Kutcho valued at $6.7 million in addition to certain other modifications to the Kutcho Early Deposit Agreement, including the elimination of the drop-down in attributable gold and silver to 66.7% once certain thresholds had been achieved, and eliminating the requirement to make an additional payment to Kutcho, of up to $20 million, if processing throughput is increased to 4,500 tonnes per day or more within 5 years of attaining commercial production.
A summary of the fair value of the Kutcho Convertible Note and the fair value changes recognized as a component of the Company’s net earnings during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 is presented below:

Under the terms of the San Dimas PMPA, the Company is entitled to an amount equal to 25% of the payable gold production plus an additional amount of gold equal to 25% of the payable silver production converted to gold at a fixed gold to silver exchange ratio of 70:1 from the San Dimas mine. If the average gold to silver price ratio decreases to less than 50:1 or increases to more than 90:1 for a period of 6 months or more, then the “70” shall be revised to “50” or “90”, as the case may be, until such time as the average gold to silver price ratio is between 50:1 to 90:1 for a period of 6 months or more in which event the “70” shall be reinstated. Effective April 1, 2020, the fixed gold to silver exchange ratio was revised to 90:1, with the 70:1 ratio being reinstated on October 15, 2020. For reference, attributable silver production from prior periods is as follows:

WHEATON PRECIOUS METALS 2022 SECOND QUARTER REPORT [17]

Gold Production
For the three months ended June 30, 2022, attributable gold production was 68,400 ounces, with the 21,700 ounce decrease from the comparable period in 2021 being primarily attributable to the following factors:
 
 
 
21,500 ounce (39%) decrease from Salobo, resulting from lower throughput and grades. Vale has reported that while mine movement continued to improve during the quarter, concentrate production was negatively impacted by plant performance due to delays in ramp-up after planned and corrective maintenance. As it relates to throughput, the two 12 mtpa lines operated at an average rate of approximately 74% of capacity during
Q2-2022
as compared to 90% during
Q2-2021;
and
 
 
 
3,200 ounce (32%) decrease from Other mines, primarily due to lower production at 777 with closure activities commencing in June 2022; with these decreases being partially offset by
 
 
 
2,600 ounce (58%) increase from Sudbury, due to higher throughput as the prior year was impacted by the temporary suspension of operations at the mine from June 1, 2021 to August 9, 2021 as a result of a labour dispute; and
 
 
 
2,500 ounce (46%) increase from Constancia, primarily due to the mining of higher grade material from the Pampacancha pit.
Silver Production
For the three months ended June 30, 2022, attributable silver production was 6.5 million ounces, virtually unchanged relative to the comparable period in 2021, with the mine specific changes period over period being as follows:
 
 
 
116,000 ounce (25%) increase from Constancia, primarily due to higher grades; and
 
 
63,000 ounce (3%) increase from Peñasquito, primarily due to higher grades; partially offset by
 
 
 
179,000 ounce (11%) decrease from Antamina, primarily due to lower grades and throughput.
Palladium Production
For the three months ended June 30, 2022, attributable palladium production was 3,900 ounces, with the 1,400 ounce decrease being primarily attributable to lower throughput resulting from the effect of significant weather events in June (see page 8 of this MD&A for more information).
Cobalt Production
For the three months ended June 30, 2022, attributable cobalt production was 136,200 pounds, with the 243,600 pound decrease being primarily attributable to a scheduled maintenance shut down at Voisey’s Bay coupled with lower grades during the ongoing transitional period between the depletion of the Ovoid open-pit mine and ramp-up to full production of the Voisey’s Bay underground project.

WHEATON PRECIOUS METALS 2022 SECOND QUARTER REPORT [21]

Gold Production
For the six months ended June 30, 2022, attributable gold production was 146,400 ounces, with the 22,200 ounce decrease from the comparable period in 2021 being primarily attributable to the following factors:
 
 
 
23,200 ounce (23%) decrease from Salobo, primarily due to lower grades and throughput, with Vale reporting that during the first quarter of 2022, operations at Salobo were impacted by both planned and corrective maintenance in the mill liners, coupled with above average seasonal rain level in the region during the fourth quarter of 2021 impacting mine plans in the first quarter of 2022. Additionally, as discussed on page 18 of this MD&A, during the second quarter, concentrate production was negatively impacted by plant performance due to delays in ramp-up after the planned and corrective maintenance. As it relates to throughput, the two 12 mtpa lines operated at an average rate of approximately 77% of capacity during the first six month of 2022 as compared to 86% during the comparable period of 2021;
 
 
 
3,600 ounce (19%) decrease from Other mines, primarily due to lower production at 777 with closure activities commencing in June 2022; and
 
 
 
1,500 ounce (7%) decrease from San Dimas, primarily due to lower grades and throughput; with these decreases being partially offset by
 
 
 
6,400 ounce (80%) increase from Constancia, primarily due to higher grades resulting from the commencement of ore production from the Pampacancha satellite deposit and the increase in fixed recoveries from 55% to 70%, both occurring during
Q2-2022;
and
 
 
 
1,000 ounce (9%) increase from Sudbury, primarily due to higher grades and recoveries.
Silver Production
For the six months ended June 30, 2022, attributable silver production was 12.8 million ounces, with the 0.5 million ounce decrease from the comparable period in 2021 being primarily attributable to the following factors:
 
 
 
488,000 ounce (16%) decrease from Antamina, primarily due to lower grades; and
 
 
 
331,000 ounce (7%) decrease from Other mines, primarily due to the placement of Stratoni into care and maintenance during Q4 2021; partially offset by
 
 
 
80,000 ounce (2%) increase from Peñasquito, primarily due to higher grades.
Palladium Production
For the six months ended June 30, 2022, attributable palladium production was 8,400 ounces, with the 2,700 ounce decrease being primarily attributable to lower throughput and grades.
Cobalt Production
For the six months ended June 30, 2022, attributable cobalt production was 370,700 pounds, with the 1.1 million pound decrease being primarily attributable to the comparable period in the prior year including approximately 676,000 pounds of cobalt which had been produced in prior periods, coupled with a scheduled maintenance shut down at Voisey’s Bay during the second quarter of 2022 and the mining of lower grade material during the ongoing transitional period between the depletion of the Ovoid open-pit mine and ramp-up to full production of the Voisey’s Bay underground project.

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, share based compensation increased by $2 million relative to the comparable period in the previous year with the increase being primarily the result of differences in accrued costs associated with the Company’s performance share units (“PSUs”) due primarily to a 5% increase in the estimated and / or actual weighted average value per PSU at maturity during the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to a 3% decrease during the comparable period of the previous year.

Copper World Complex (formerly referred to as Rosemont in this MD&A). Figure includes contingent transaction costs of $1 million.
2)
As more fully explained on the following page, assuming the Salobo III expansion project achieves 12 Mtpa of additional processing capacity (bringing total processing capacity at Salobo to 36 Mtpa) by the end of 2023, the Company would expect to pay an estimated expansion payment of between $550 million to $650 million.
3)
The Company anticipates construction to begin in this period.
Copper World Complex
The Company is committed to pay Hudbay total upfront cash payments of $230 million in two installments, with the first $50 million being advanced upon Hudbay’s receipt of permitting for the Copper World Complex (formerly referred to as Rosemont in this MD&A) and other customary conditions and the balance of $180 million being advanced once project costs incurred on the Copper World Complex exceed $98 million and certain other customary conditions. Under the Copper World Complex PMPA, the Company is permitted to elect to pay the deposit in cash or the delivery of common shares. Additionally, the Company will be entitled to certain delay payments, including where construction ceases in any material respect, or if completion is not achieved within agreed upon timelines. Hudbay and certain affiliates have provided the Company with a corporate guarantee and other security.
As per Hudbay’s press release of May 12, 2022, the Ninth Circuit affirmed the U.S. District Court for Arizona’s previous decision to vacate and remand the Final Record of Decision for the Rosemont deposit within the Copper World Complex in Arizona.
Loma de La Plata
Under the terms of the Loma de La Plata PMPA, the Company is committed to pay Pan American Silver Corp. (“PAAS”) total upfront cash payments of $32 million following the satisfaction of certain conditions, including PAAS receiving all necessary permits to proceed with the mine construction and the Company finalizing the definitive terms of the PMPA.
Marmato
Under the terms of the Marmato PMPA, the Company is committed to pay Aris Gold total upfront cash payments of $110 million. Of this amount, $34 million was paid on April 15, 2021; $4 million was paid on February 28, 2022; and the remaining amount is payable during the construction of the Marmato Lower Mine development portion of the Marmato mine, subject to customary conditions. Under the amended terms of the Marmato PMPA, the Company is committed to pay Aris Gold additional upfront cash consideration of $65 million, $15 million of which was paid to Aris Gold on April 11, 2022 and the remaining $50 million is payable during the construction and development of the Lower Mine.

Santo Domingo
Under the terms of the Santo Domingo PMPA, the Company is committed to pay Capstone total upfront cash payments of $290 million, $30 million of which was paid on April 21, 2021 and the remaining portion of which is payable during the construction of the Santo Domingo project, subject to customary conditions being satisfied, including Capstone attaining sufficient financing to cover total expected capital expenditures.
Salobo
The Salobo mine currently has a mill throughput capacity of 24 Mtpa. In October 2018, Vale’s Board of Directors approved the investment in the Salobo Expansion, which is proposed to include a third concentrator line and will use Salobo’s existing infrastructure. Vale anticipates that the Salobo Expansion, which is scheduled to start up in the second half of 2022 with a
15-month
ramp-up
period, will result in an increase of throughput capacity from 24 Mtpa to 36 Mtpa.
If actual throughput is expanded above 28 Mtpa, then under the terms of the Salobo PMPA, Wheaton will be required to make an additional set payment to Vale based on the size of the expansion, the timing of completion and the grade of the material processed. The set payment ranges from $113 million if throughput is expanded beyond 28 Mtpa by January 1, 2036 up to $892 million if throughput is expanded beyond 40 Mtpa by January 1, 2023. Assuming the Salobo III expansion project achieves 12 Mtpa of additional processing capacity (bringing total processing capacity at Salobo to 36 Mtpa) during 2023, the Company would expect to pay an estimated expansion payment of between $550 million to $650 million. The actual amount and timing of any expansion payment may significantly differ from this estimate depending on the size, timing and processed grade of any expansion.
Fenix
Under the terms of the Fenix PMPA, the Company is committed to pay total cash consideration of $50 million, of which $25 million was paid on March 25, 2022. The remaining $25 million is payable subject to Rio2’s receipt of its Environmental Impact Assessment for the Fenix Project, and certain other conditions.
On June 28, 2022, Rio2 provided an update on the Fenix Gold environmental assessment process. The Environmental Assessment Service (“SEA”) published the Consolidation Evaluation Report with the recommendation to reject the EIA as it has been alleged that Rio2 has not provided enough information during the evaluation process to eliminate adverse impacts over the chinchilla, guanaco, and vicuña. On July 5, 2022, Rio2 announced that the Regional Evaluation Commission has voted to not approve the EIA. Following this decision, Rio2 provided a further update on July 11, 2022, stating that Rio2 along with its Chilean environmental and legal advisor, are currently evaluating options to continue to advance the project.
The Company’s management has determined that no indicator of impairment existed as of the balance sheet date and will continue to monitor Rio2’s response to this decision.
Blackwater
Under the terms of the Blackwater Silver PMPA, the Company is committed to pay total upfront consideration of $141 million, which is payable in four equal installments during the construction of the Blackwater Project, subject to customary conditions being satisfied.
Marathon
Under the terms of the Marathon PMPA, the Company is committed to pay total upfront cash consideration of $192 million (Cdn$240 million), $16 million (Cdn$20 million) of which was paid on March 31, 2022, $16 million (Cdn$20 million) of which will be paid prior to construction to be used for the development of the Marathon Project, and the remainder to be paid in four staged installments during construction, subject to various customary conditions being satisfied.
Curipamba
Under the terms of the Curipamba PMPA, the Company is committed to pay total upfront cash consideration of $175.5 million, $13 million of which is available
pre-construction
and $500,000 of which will be paid to support certain local community development initiatives around the Curipamba Project. The remainder will be payable in four staged installments during construction, subject to various customary conditions being satisfied.
Goose
Under the terms of the Goose PMPA, the Company is committed to pay total upfront cash consideration of $125 million in four equal installments during construction of the Goose Project, subject to customary conditions.
Toroparu
Under the terms of the Toroparu Early Deposit Agreement, the Company is committed to pay Gold X, a subsidiary of GCM, an additional $138 million, payable on an installment basis to partially fund construction of the mine. GCM is to deliver certain feasibility documentation by December 31, 2022. Following the delivery of this documentation (or after December 31, 2022 if the feasibility documentation has not been delivered to Wheaton by such date) Wheaton may
 
WHEATON PRECIOUS METALS 2022 SECOND QUARTER REPORT [32]

elect to (i) not proceed with the agreement or (ii) not pay the balance of the upfront consideration and reduce the gold stream percentage from 10% to 0.909% and the silver stream percentage from 50% to nil. If option (i) is chosen, Wheaton will be entitled to a return of the amounts advanced less $2 million. If Wheaton elects option (ii), Gold X may elect to terminate the agreement and Wheaton will be entitled to a return of the amount of the deposit already advanced less $2 million.
Cotabambas
Under the terms of the Cotabambas Early Deposit Agreement, the Company is committed to pay Panoro a total cash consideration of $140 million, of which $12 million has been paid to date. Once certain conditions have been met, the Company will advance an additional $2 million to Panoro, spread over up to two years. Following the delivery of a bankable definitive feasibility study, environmental study and impact assessment, and other related documents (collectively, the “Cotabambas Feasibility Documentation”), and receipt of permits and construction commencing, the Company may then advance the remaining deposit or elect to terminate the Cotabambas Early Deposit Agreement. If the Company elects to terminate, the Company will be entitled to a return of the portion of the amounts advanced less $2 million payable upon certain triggering events occurring.
Kutcho
Under the terms of the Kutcho Early Deposit Agreement, the Company is committed to pay Kutcho a total cash consideration of $65 million, of which $7 million has been paid to date. The remaining $58 million will be advanced on an installment basis to partially fund construction of the mine once certain conditions have been satisfied.
Taxes - Canada Revenue Agency – 2013 to 2016 Taxation Years - Domestic Reassessments
1
The Company received Notices of Reassessment in 2018, 2019, and 2022 for the 2013 to 2016 taxation years in which the Canada Revenue Agency (“CRA”) is seeking to change the timing of the deduction of upfront payments with respect to the Company’s PMPAs relating to Canadian mining assets, so that the cost of precious metal acquired under these Canadian PMPAs is equal to the cash cost paid on delivery plus an amortized amount of the upfront payment determined on a
units-of-production
basis over the estimated recoverable reserves, and where applicable, resources and exploration potential at the respective mine (the “Domestic Reassessments”).
In total, the Company expects the Domestic Reassessments to have assessed tax, interest and other penalties of approximately $2 million.
Management believes the Company’s position, as reflected in its filed Canadian income tax returns and consistent with the terms of the PMPAs, that the cost of the precious metal acquired under the Canadian PMPAs is equal to the market value while a deposit is outstanding, and the cash cost thereafter, is correct. The Company has filed Notices of Objection and paid 50% of the disputed amounts in order to challenge the Domestic Reassessments.
Tax Contingencies
Due to the size, complexity and nature of the Company’s operations, various legal and tax matters are outstanding from time to time, including audits and disputes.
Under the terms of the settlement with the CRA of the transfer pricing dispute relating to the 2005 to 2010 taxation years (the “CRA Settlement”), income earned outside of Canada by the Company’s foreign subsidiaries will not be subject to tax in Canada under transfer pricing rules. The CRA Settlement principles apply to all taxation years after 2010 subject to there being no material change in facts or change in law or jurisprudence. The CRA is not restricted under the terms of the CRA Settlement from issuing reassessments on some basis other than transfer pricing which could result in some or all of the income of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries being subject to tax in Canada.
It is not known or determinable by the Company when any ongoing audits by CRA of international and domestic transactions will be completed, or whether reassessments will be issued, or the basis, quantum or timing of any such potential reassessments, and it is therefore not practicable for the Company to estimate the financial effect, if any, of any ongoing audits.
From time to time there may also be proposed legislative changes to law or outstanding legal actions that may have an impact on the current or prior periods, the outcome, applicability and impact of which is also not known or determinable by the Company.
General
By their nature, contingencies will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The assessment of contingencies inherently involves the exercise of significant judgment and estimates of the outcome of future events. If the Company is unable to resolve any of these matters favorably, there may be a material adverse

The assessment by management of the expected impact of the Domestic Reassessments on the Company is “forward-looking information”. Please see “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in the MD&A for material risks, assumptions and important disclosure associated with this information.
 
WHEATON PRECIOUS METALS 2022 SECOND QUARTER REPORT [33]

impact on the Company’s financial performance, cash flows or results of operations. In the event that the Company’s estimate of the future resolution of any of the foregoing matters changes, the Company will recognize the effects of the change in its consolidated financial statements in the appropriate period relative to when such change occurs.
Share Capital
During the three months ended June 30, 2022, the Company received cash proceeds of $2 million from the exercise of stock options, primarily related to the exercise of stock options on March 31, 2022 (six months - $8 million from the exercise of 329,914 share purchase options at a weighted average exercise price of Cdn$28.87). During the three months ended June 30, 2021, the Company received cash proceeds of $1 million from the exercise of 31,745 share purchase options at a weighted average exercise price of Cdn$28.29 per option (six months - $6 million from the exercise of 289,745 share purchase options at a weighted average exercise price of Cdn$23.80).
During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company released 87,838 RSUs, with all releases taking place during three months ended March 31, 2022. During the three months ended June 30, 2021, the Company released 700 RSUs (six months - 116,880 RSUs).
The Company has implemented a dividend reinvestment plan (“DRIP”) whereby shareholders can elect to have dividends reinvested directly into additional Wheaton common shares. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, there were 410,488 common shares issued under the DRIP, with all the shares being issued during the three months ended June 30, 2022. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, there were 406,470 common shares issued under the DRIP, with all the shares being issued during the three months ended June 30, 2021.
As of August 11, 2022, there were 451,692,192 outstanding common shares, 1,652,869 share purchase options, 352,680 restricted share units and 10,000,000 share purchase warrants.
At the Market Equity Program
The Company has established an
at-the-market
equity program (the “ATM Program”) that allows the Company to issue up to $300 million worth of common shares from treasury (“Common Shares”) to the public from time to time at the Company’s discretion and subject to regulatory requirements.
The ATM Program will be effective until the date that all Common Shares available for issue under the ATM Program have been issued or the ATM Program is terminated prior to such date by the Company or the agents.
Wheaton intends that the net proceeds from the ATM Program, if any, will be available as one potential source of funding for stream acquisitions and/or other general corporate purposes including the repayment of indebtedness. As at June 30, 2022, the Company has not issued any shares under the ATM program.
Financial Instruments
The Company owns equity interests in several companies as long-term investments (see page 10 of this MD&A) and therefore is inherently exposed to various risk factors including currency risk, market price risk and liquidity risk.
In order to mitigate the effect of short-term volatility in gold, silver and palladium prices, the Company will occasionally enter into forward contracts in relation to gold, silver and palladium deliveries that it is highly confident will occur within a given quarter. The Company does not hedge its long-term exposure to commodity prices. The Company has not used derivative financial instruments to manage the risks associated with its operations and therefore, in the normal course of business, it is inherently exposed to currency, interest rate and commodity price fluctuations.
Future Changes to Accounting Policies
The International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) has issued the following new or amended standards:
Amendment to IAS 12 - Deferred Tax related to Assets and Liabilities arising from a Single Transaction
The amendments to IAS 12 clarify that the initial recognition exemption does not apply to transactions in which equal amounts of deductible and taxable temporary differences arise on initial recognition. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023. Early application of the amendments is permitted. The amendments apply to transactions that occur on or after the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented. In addition, at the beginning of the earliest comparative period the following would be recognized:
 
 
 
a deferred tax asset to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary difference can be utilized and a deferred tax liability for all deductible and taxable temporary differences associated with
right-of-use
assets and lease liabilities; and
 
 
 
the cumulative effect of initially applying the amendments as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings (or other component of equity, as appropriate) at that date.
The implementation of this amendment is not expected to have a material impact on the Company.
 
WHEATON PRECIOUS METALS 2022 SECOND QUARTER REPORT [34]

Amendment to IAS
1-
Presentation of Financial statements
The amendments to IAS 1 clarify the presentation of liabilities. The classification of liabilities as current or noncurrent is based on contractual rights that are in existence at the end of the reporting period and is unaffected by expectations about whether an entity will exercise its right to defer settlement. A liability not due over the next twelve months is classified as
non-current
even if management intends or expects to settle the liability within twelve months. The amendment also introduces a definition of ‘settlement’ to make clear that settlement refers to the transfer of cash, equity instruments, other assets, or services to the counterparty. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023. The implementation of this amendment is not expected to have a material impact on the Company.
Amendments to IAS 1 and IFRS Practice Statement 2 – Disclosure of Accounting policies
The amendments require that an entity discloses its material accounting policies, instead of its significant accounting policies. Further amendments explain how an entity can identify a material accounting policy. Examples of when an accounting policy is likely to be material are added. To support the amendment, the IASB has also developed guidance and examples to explain and demonstrate the application of the ‘four-step materiality process’ described in IFRS Practice Statement 2. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the amendment on its financial statements.

Non-IFRS
Measures
Wheaton has included, throughout this document, certain
non-IFRS
performance measures, including (i) adjusted net earnings and adjusted net earnings per share; (ii) operating cash flow per share (basic and diluted); (iii) average cash costs of gold, silver and palladium on a per ounce basis and cobalt on a per pound basis; and (iv) cash operating margin.
These
non-IFRS
measures do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS, and other companies may calculate these measures differently. The presentation of these
non-IFRS
measures is intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS.
 
  i.
Adjusted net earnings and adjusted net earnings per share are calculated by removing the effects of
non-cash
impairment charges (if any),
non-cash
fair value (gains) losses and other
one-time
(income) expenses as well as the reversal of
non-cash
income tax expense (recovery) which is offset by income tax expense (recovery) recognized in the Statements of Shareholders’ Equity and OCI, respectively. The Company believes that, in addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with IFRS, management and certain investors use this information to evaluate the Company’s performance.

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

Cash operating margin is calculated by subtracting the average cash cost of gold, silver and palladium on a per ounce basis and cobalt on a per pound basis from the average realized selling price of gold, silver and palladium on a per ounce basis and cobalt on a per pound basis. The Company presents cash operating margin as management and certain investors use this information to evaluate the Company’s performance in comparison to other companies in the precious metal mining industry who present results on a similar basis as well as to evaluate the Company’s ability to generate cash flow.
The following table provides a reconciliation of cash operating margin.

WHEATON PRECIOUS METALS 2022 SECOND QUARTER REPORT [39]

Subsequent Events
Declaration of Dividend
Under the Company’s dividend policy, the quarterly dividend per common share is targeted to equal approximately 30% of the average cash flow generated by operating activities in the previous four quarters divided by the Company’s then outstanding common shares, all rounded to the nearest cent. To minimize volatility in quarterly dividends, the Company has set a minimum quarterly dividend for the duration of 2022 equal to the dividend per common share declared in the prior quarter. The declaration, timing, amount and payment of future dividends remain at the discretion of the Board of Directors.
On August 11, 2022, the Board of Directors declared a dividend in the amount of $0.15 per common share, with this dividend being payable to shareholders of record on August 26, 2022 and is expected to be distributed on or about September 8, 2022. The Company has implemented a dividend reinvestment plan (“DRIP”) whereby shareholders can elect to have dividends reinvested directly into additional Wheaton common shares at a discount of 1% of the Average Market Price, as defined in the DRIP.
Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Wheaton’s management, with the participation of its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the design and effectiveness of Wheaton’s disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in the rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and Canadian Securities Administrators, as of June 30, 2022. Based on that evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that Wheaton’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2022.
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
The Company’s management, with the participation of its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, are responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Under the supervision of the Chief Financial Officer, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with IFRS. The Company’s controls include policies and procedures that:
 
 
 
pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company;
 
 
 
provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with IFRS, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of the Company’s management and directors; and,
 
 
 
provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the annual financial statements or interim financial statements.
The Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting using the framework and criteria established in
Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013),
issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this evaluation, management has concluded that the internal control over financial reporting was effective at as of June 30, 2022.
There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended June 30, 2022 that would materially affect, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
Limitation of Controls and Procedures
The Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, believe that any disclosure controls and procedures or internal control over financial reporting, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, they cannot provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been prevented or detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by unauthorized override of the controls. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all
 
WHEATON PRECIOUS METALS 2022 SECOND QUARTER REPORT [40]

potential future conditions. Accordingly, because of the inherent limitations in a cost effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
Attributable Reserves and Resources
The following tables set forth the estimated Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources (metals attributable to Wheaton only) for the mines relating to which the Company has PMPAs, adjusted where applicable to reflect the Company’s percentage entitlement to such metals, as of December 31, 2021, unless otherwise noted.

The Company QP’s have approved this partner disclosed scientific and technical information in respect of the Company’s Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserve estimates for the Antamina mine, Peñasquito mine and Salobo mine.
 
11.
The Company’s attributable Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves for the Antamina silver interest, Cozamin silver interest, Marmato gold and silver interests, Santo Domingo gold interest, Blackwater gold and silver interests, Marathon gold and platinum interests, Sudbury gold interest, Fenix gold interest, Goose gold interest, Curipamba gold and silver interests, Stillwater palladium interest and Voisey’s Bay cobalt interest have been constrained to the production expected for the various contracts.
 
12.
The Company has the option in the Early Deposit agreements, to terminate the agreement following the delivery of a feasibility study or if feasibility study has not been delivered within a required time frame.
 
13.
The Stillwater precious metals purchase agreement provides that effective July 1, 2018, Sibanye-Stillwater will deliver 100% of the gold production for the life of the mines and 4.5% of palladium production until 375,000 ounces are delivered, 2.25% of palladium production until a further 175,000 ounces are delivered and 1.0% of the palladium production thereafter for the life of the mines. Attributable palladium Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources have been calculated based upon the 4.5% / 2.25% / 1.0% production entitlements.
The Stillwater mine has been in operation since 1986 and the East Boulder mine since 2002. Individual grades for platinum, palladium, gold and rhodium are estimated using ratios applied to the combined platinum plus palladium grades based upon average historic production results provided to the Company as of the date of this document. As such, the Attributable Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserve palladium and gold grades for the Stillwater mines have been estimated using the following ratios:
 
  a.
Stillwater mine: Pd = (Pt + Pd) / (1/3.51 + 1) and Au = (Pd + Pt) x 0.0238
 
  b.
East Boulder mine: Pd = (Pt + Pd) / (1/3.60 + 1) and Au = (Pd + Pt) x 0.0323
 
14.
Under the terms of the San Dimas PMPA, the Company is entitled to an amount equal to 25% of the payable gold production plus an additional amount of gold equal to 25% of the payable silver production converted to gold at a fixed gold to silver exchange ratio of 70:1 from the San Dimas mine. If the average gold to silver price ratio decreases to less than 50:1 or increases to more than 90:1 for a period of 6 months or more, then the “70” shall be revised to “50” or “90”, as the case may be, until such time as the average gold to silver price ratio is between 50:1 to 90:1 for a period of 6 months or more in which event the “70” shall be reinstated.

such other assumptions and factors as set out in the Disclosure.
Although Wheaton has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results, level of activity, performance or achievements to differ materially from those contained in forward-looking statements, there may be other factors that cause results, level of activity, performance or achievements not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that forward-looking statements will prove to be accurate and even if events or results described in the forward-looking statements are realized or substantially realized, there can be no assurance that they will have the expected consequences to, or effects on, Wheaton. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements and are cautioned that actual outcomes may vary. The forward-looking statements included herein are for the purpose of providing investors with information to assist them in understanding Wheaton’s expected financial and operational performance and may not be appropriate for other purposes. Any forward looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made. Wheaton does not undertake to update any forward-looking statements that are included or incorporated by reference herein, except in accordance with applicable securities laws.
Cautionary Language Regarding Reserves And Resources
For further information on Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources and on Wheaton more generally, readers should refer to Wheaton’s Annual Information Form for the year ended December 31, 2021 and other continuous disclosure documents filed by Wheaton since January 1, 2022, available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com. Wheaton’s Mineral
 
WHEATON PRECIOUS METALS 2022 SECOND QUARTER REPORT [50]

Reserves and Mineral Resources are subject to the qualifications and notes set forth therein. Mineral Resources which are not Mineral Reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability.
Cautionary Note to United States Investors Concerning Estimates of Measured, Indicated and Inferred Resources:
The information contained herein has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the securities laws in effect in Canada, which differ from the requirements of United States securities laws. The terms “mineral reserve”, “proven mineral reserve” and “probable mineral reserve” are Canadian mining terms defined in accordance with Canadian National Instrument
43-101
– Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“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”). In addition, the terms “mineral resource”, “measured mineral resource”, “indicated mineral resource” and “inferred mineral resource” are defined in and required to be disclosed by NI
43-101.
Investors are cautioned not to assume that any part or all of the mineral deposits in these categories will ever be converted into reserves. “Inferred mineral resources” have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and as to their economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of an inferred mineral resource will ever be upgraded to a higher category. Under Canadian rules, estimates of inferred mineral resources may not form the basis of feasibility or
pre-feasibility
studies, except in rare cases. Investors are cautioned not to assume that all or any part of an inferred mineral resource exists or is economically or legally mineable. Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. Disclosure of “contained ounces” in a resource is permitted disclosure under Canadian regulations. The SEC has adopted amendments to its disclosure rules to modernize the mineral property disclosure requirements for issuers whose securities are registered with the SEC under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). These amendments became effective February 25, 2019 (the “SEC Modernization Rules”) with compliance required for the first fiscal year beginning on or after January 1, 2021. Under the SEC Modernization Rules, the historical property disclosure requirements for mining registrants included in SEC Industry Guide 7 will be rescinded and replaced with disclosure requirements in subpart 1300 of SEC Regulation
S-K.
Following the transition period, as a foreign private issuer that is eligible to file reports with the SEC pursuant to the multi-jurisdictional disclosure system, the Company is not required to provide disclosure on its mineral properties under the SEC Modernization Rules and will continue to provide disclosure under NI
43-101.
As a result of the adoption of the SEC Modernization Rules, the SEC will recognize estimates of “measured mineral resources”, “indicated mineral resources” and “inferred mineral resources.” In addition, the SEC has amended its definitions of “proven mineral reserves” and “probable mineral reserves” to be “substantially similar” to the corresponding definitions under the CIM Definition Standards that are required under NI
43-101.
However, while the above terms are “substantially similar” to CIM Definition Standards, there are differences in the definitions under the SEC Modernization Rules and the CIM Definition 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 SEC Modernization Rules. Accordingly, information contained herein that describes Wheaton’s mineral deposits may not be comparable to similar information made public by U.S. companies subject to reporting and disclosure requirements under the United States federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder. United States investors are urged to consider closely the disclosure in Wheaton’s Form
40-F,
a copy of which may be obtained from Wheaton or from http://www.sec.gov/edgar.html.

WHEATON PRECIOUS METALS 2022 SECOND QUARTER REPORT [5

Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements
Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2022 (US Dollars)
 
1.
Description of Business and Nature of Operations
Wheaton Precious Metals Corp. is a precious metal streaming company which generates its revenue primarily from the sale of precious metals (gold, silver and palladium) and cobalt. Wheaton Precious Metals Corp. (“Wheaton” or the “Company”), which is the ultimate parent company of its consolidated group, is incorporated and domiciled in Canada, and its principal place of business is at Suite 3500 - 1021 West Hastings Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6E 0C3. The Company trades on the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”), the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) and the London Stock Exchange (“LSE”) under the symbol WPM.
As of June 30, 2022, the Company has entered into 31 long-term purchase agreements (three of which are early deposit agreements), with 24 different mining companies, for the purchase of precious metals and cobalt (“precious metal purchase agreements” or “PMPA”) relating to 21 mining assets which are currently operating, 14 which are at various stages of development and 3 which have been placed in care and maintenance or have been closed, located in 13 countries. Pursuant to the PMPAs, Wheaton acquires metal production from the counterparties for an initial upfront payment plus an additional cash payment for each ounce or pound delivered which is either a fixed price or fixed percentage of the market price by contract, generally at or below the prevailing market price.
The condensed interim consolidated financial statements of the Company for the three
and six 
months ended June 30, 2022 were authorized for issue as of August 11, 2022 in accordance with a resolution of the Board of Directors.
Partner Operations
Wheaton continues to review our partners’ operations to understand their policies and procedures around the
COVID-19
pandemic. We have been advised that each operation will make decisions according to their local situation and applicable laws, as well as considering the health and safety of their employees. There can be no assurance that our partners’ operations will remain operational, or operate at expected levels, for the duration of the
COVID-19
pandemic.
 
2.
Basis of Presentation and Statement of Compliance
These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for certain financial instruments which have been measured at fair value as at the relevant balance sheet date. The consolidated financial statements are presented in United States (“US”) dollars, which is the Company’s functional currency, and all values are rounded to the nearest thousand US dollars (US$ 000’s) unless otherwise noted. References to “Cdn$” refer to Canadian dollars.
These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting (“IAS 34”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. The accounting policies applied in these unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements are based on International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and have been prepared using the same accounting policies and methods of application as disclosed in Note 3 to the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021 and were consistently applied to all the periods presented unless otherwise stated below. These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and note disclosures required by IFRS for annual consolidated financial statements and therefore should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021.
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with IAS 34 requires the use of certain accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise judgment in applying the Company’s accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgment or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements, are disclosed in Note 4.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments (including normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position at June 30, 2022 and the results of operations and cash flows for all periods presented have been made. The interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.
During the first quarter, the Company changed the classification for stock option expense (Note 20.2), RSU expense (Note 20.3), and PSU expense (Note 21.1) within the Condensed Interim Consolidated Statement of Earnings from General and Administrative expense to Share Based Compensation as management believes this presentation provides more useful information to the readers of the financial statements. Additionally, the Company changed the classification for donations and community investments within the Condensed Interim Consolidated Statement of Earnings from General and Administrative expense to Donations and Community Investments (Note 9).
These changes have been retrospectively applied to all periods presented.

Significant Accounting Policies
 
3.1.
Future Changes to Accounting Policies
The IASB has issued the following new or amended standards:
Amendment to IAS 12 – Deferred Tax related to Assets and Liabilities arising from a Single Transaction
The amendments to IAS 12 clarify that the initial recognition exemption does not apply to transactions in which equal amounts of deductible and taxable temporary differences arise on initial recognition. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023. Early application of the amendments is permitted. The amendments apply to transactions that occur on or after the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented. In addition, at the beginning of the earliest comparative period the following would be recognized:
 
 
 
a deferred tax asset to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary difference can be utilized and a deferred tax liability for all deductible and taxable temporary differences associated with
right-of-use
assets and lease liabilities; and
 
 
 
the cumulative effect of initially applying the amendments as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings (or other component of equity, as appropriate) at that date.
The implementation of this amendment is not expected to have a material impact on the Company.
Amendment to IAS 1
-
Presentation of Financial statements
The amendments to IAS 1 clarify the presentation of liabilities. The classification of liabilities as current or noncurrent is based on contractual rights that are in existence at the end of the reporting period and is unaffected by expectations about whether an entity will exercise its right to defer settlement. A liability not due over the next twelve months is classified as
non-current
even if management intends or expects to settle the liability within twelve months. The amendment also introduces a definition of ‘settlement’ to make clear that settlement refers to the transfer of cash, equity instruments, other assets, or services to the counterparty. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023. The implementation of this amendment is not expected to have a material impact on the Company.
Amendments to IAS 1 and IFRS Practice Statement 2 – Disclosure of Accounting policies
The amendments require that an entity discloses its material accounting policies, instead of its significant accounting policies. Further amendments explain how an entity can identify a material accounting policy. Examples of when an accounting policy is likely to be material are added. To support the amendment, the IASB has also developed guidance and examples to explain and demonstrate the application of the ‘four-step materiality process’ described in IFRS Practice Statement 2. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2023. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the amendment on its financial statements.

Key Sources of Estimation Uncertainty and Critical Accounting Judgments
The preparation of the Company’s condensed interim consolidated financial statements requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates and assumptions are continuously evaluated and are based on management’s experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. However, actual outcomes can differ from these estimates.
Information about significant areas of estimation uncertainty and judgments made by management in preparing the condensed interim consolidated financial statements are described below.

Key Sources of Estimation Uncertainty
 
4.1.
Attributable Reserve, Resource and Exploration Potential Estimates
Mineral stream interests are significant assets of the Company, with a carrying value of $5.9 billion at June 30, 2022. This amount represents the capitalized expenditures related to the acquisition of the mineral stream interests, net of accumulated depletion and accumulated impairment charges, if any. The Company estimates the reserves, resources and exploration potential relating to each agreement. Reserves are estimates of the amount of metals contained in ore that can be economically and legally extracted from the mining properties in respect of which the Company has PMPAs. Resources are estimates of the amount of metals contained in mineralized material for which there is a reasonable prospect for economic extraction from the mining properties in respect of which the Company has PMPAs. Exploration potential represents an estimate of additional reserves and resources which may be discovered through the mine operator’s exploration program. The Company adjusts its estimates of reserves, resources (where applicable) and exploration potential (where applicable) to reflect the Company’s percentage entitlement to metals produced from such mines. The Company compiles its estimates of its reserves and resources based on information supplied by appropriately qualified persons relating to the geological data on the size, density and grade of the ore body, and require complex geological and geostatistical judgments to interpret the data. The estimation of recoverable reserves and resources is based upon factors such as estimates of foreign exchange rates, commodity prices, future capital requirements, and production costs along with geological assumptions and judgments made in estimating the size and grade of the ore body. The Company estimates exploration potential based on assumptions surrounding the ore body continuity which requires judgment as to future success of any exploration programs undertaken by the mine operator. Changes in the reserve estimates, resource estimates or exploration potential estimates may impact upon the carrying value of the Company’s mineral stream interests and depletion charges.
 
4.2.
Depletion
The Company’s mineral stream interests are separately allocated to reserves, resources and exploration potential. The value allocated to reserves is classified as depletable and is depleted on a
unit-of-production
basis over the estimated recoverable proven and probable reserves at the mine corresponding to the specific agreement. The value associated with resources and exploration potential is the value beyond proven and probable reserves at acquisition and is classified as
non-depletable
until such time as it is transferred to the depletable category as a result of the conversion of resources and/or exploration potential into reserves. To make this allocation, the Company estimates the recoverable reserves, resources and exploration potential at each mining operation. These calculations require the use of estimates and assumptions, including the amount of contained metals, recovery rates and payable rates. Changes to these assumptions may impact the estimated recoverable reserves, resources or exploration potential which could directly impact the depletion rates used. Changes to depletion rates are accounted for prospectively.
 
4.3.
Impairment of Assets
The Company assesses each PMPA at the end of every reporting period to determine whether any indication of impairment or impairment reversal exists. If such an indication exists, the recoverable amount of the PMPA is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment or impairment reversal (if any). The calculation of the recoverable amount requires the use of estimates and assumptions such as long-term commodity prices, discount rates, recoverable ounces of attributable metals, and operating performance.
The price of precious metals and cobalt has been volatile over the past several years. The Company monitors spot and forward metal prices and if necessary
re-evaluates
the long-term metal price assumptions used for impairment testing. Should price levels decline or increase in the future, either for an extended period of time or due to known macro economic changes, the Company may need to
re-evaluate
the long-term metal price assumptions used for impairment testing. A significant decrease in long-term metal price assumptions may be an indication of potential impairment, while a significant increase in long-term metal price assumptions may be an indication of potential impairment reversal. In addition, the Company also monitors the estimated recoverable reserves and resources as well as operational developments at the mining properties in respect of which the Company has PMPAs for indications of impairment or impairment reversal. Should the Company conclude that it has an indication of impairment or impairment reversal at any balance sheet date, the Company is required to perform an impairment assessment.
 
4.4.
Valuation of Stock Based Compensation
The Company has various forms of stock based compensation, including share purchase options, restricted share units (“RSUs”) and performance share units (“PSUs”). The calculation of the fair value of share purchase options, RSUs and PSUs issued requires the use of estimates as more fully described in Notes 20.2, 20.3, and 21.1, respectively.

Critical Accounting Judgments
 
4.5.
Contingencies
Due to the size, complexity and nature of the Company’s operations, various legal and tax matters are outstanding from time to time, including those matters described in Note 27. By their nature, contingencies will only be resolved

Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements

when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The assessment of contingencies inherently involves the exercise of significant judgment of the outcome of future events. If the Company is unable to resolve any of these matters favorably, there may be a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial performance, cash flows or results of operations. In the event that management’s judgement of the future resolution of these matters changes, the Company will recognize the effects of the changes in its consolidated financial statements in the appropriate period relative to when such changes occur.
 
4.6.
Income Taxes
The interpretation and application of existing tax laws, regulations or rules in Canada, the Cayman Islands, Barbados, Luxembourg, the Netherlands or any of the countries in which the Company’s subsidiaries or the mining operations are located or to which deliveries of precious metals, precious metal credits or cobalt are made requires the use of judgment. The likelihood that tax positions taken will be sustained is assessed based on facts and circumstances of the relevant tax position considering all available evidence. Differing interpretation of these laws, regulations or rules could result in an increase in the Company’s taxes, or other governmental charges, duties or impositions. Refer to Note 27 for more information.
In assessing the probability of realizing deferred income tax assets, the Company makes estimates related to expectations of future taxable income, including the expected timing of reversals of existing temporary differences. Such estimates are based on forecasted cash flows from operations which require the use of estimates and assumptions such as long-term commodity prices and recoverable metal ounces. The amount of deferred income tax assets recognized on the balance sheet could be reduced if the actual taxable income differs significantly from expected taxable income. The Company reassesses its deferred income tax assets at the end of each reporting period.

Financial Instruments
 
5.1.
Capital Risk Management
The Company manages its capital to ensure that it will be able to continue as a going concern while maximizing the return to stakeholders through the optimization of the debt and equity balance.
The capital structure of the Company consists of debt (Note 18) and equity attributable to common shareholders, comprising of issued capital (Note 19), accumulated reserves (Note 20) and retained earnings.
The Company is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements with the exception of complying with the minimum tangible net worth covenant under the credit agreement governing bank debt (Note 18).
The Company is in compliance with the debt covenants at June 30, 2022, as described in Note 18.1.
 
5.2.
Categories of Financial Assets and Liabilities
The
non-revolving
term loan, which required regularly scheduled payments of interest and principal, was carried at amortized cost. Trade receivables from sales of cobalt and other receivables are
non-interest
bearing and are stated at amortized cost, which approximate fair values due to the short terms to maturity. Where necessary, the
non-revolving
term loan and the other receivables are reported net of allowances for uncollectable amounts. All other financial assets are reported at fair value. Fair value adjustments on financial assets are reflected as a component of net earnings with the exception of fair value adjustments associated with the Company’s long-term investments in common shares held. As these long-term investments are held for strategic purposes and not for trading, the Company has made a one time, irrevocable election to reflect the fair value adjustments associated with these investments as a component of OCI. Financial liabilities are reported at amortized cost using the effective interest method. The following table summarizes the classification of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities:

Credit Risk
Credit risk is the risk that the counterparty to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the Company by failing to discharge its obligations. To mitigate exposure to credit risk on financial assets, the Company has established policies to limit the concentration of credit risk, to ensure counterparties demonstrate minimum acceptable credit worthiness and to ensure liquidity of available funds.
The Company closely monitors its financial assets and does not have any significant concentration of credit risk. The Company invests surplus cash in short-term, high credit quality, money market instruments. Additionally, the outstanding accounts receivable from the sales of cobalt are supported by a $15 million letter of credit. Finally, counterparties used to sell precious metals are all large, international organizations with strong credit ratings and the balance of trade receivables on these sales in the ordinary course of business is not significant. Therefore, credit risk associated with trade receivables at June 30, 2022 is considered to be negligible.

Liquidity Risk
The Company has in place a rigorous planning and budgeting process to help determine the funds required to support the Company’s normal operating requirements on an ongoing basis and its expansionary plans. The Company ensures that there are sufficient committed loan facilities to meet its short-term business requirements, taking into account its anticipated cash flows from operations and its holdings of cash and cash equivalents. As at June 30, 2022, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $449 million (December 31,
2021- $
226
million) and working capital of $
456
 million (December 31,
2021 - $
220
million).
The Company holds equity investments of several companies (Note 16) with a combined market value at June 30, 2022 of $61 million (December 31,
2021 - $
61 million). The daily exchange traded volume of these shares, including the shares underlying the warrants, is not sufficient for the Company to liquidate its position in a short period of time without potentially affecting the market value of the shares. These shares and warrants are held for strategic purposes and are considered long-term investments and therefore, as part of the Company’s planning, budgeting and liquidity analysis process, these investments are not relied upon to provide operational liquidity.
The following table summarizes the timing associated with the Company’s remaining contractual payments relating to its financial liabilities. The table reflects the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities based on the earliest date on which the Company can be required to pay (assuming that the Company is in compliance with all of its obligations). The table includes both interest and principal cash flows.

5.6.
Interest Rate Risk
The Company is exposed to interest rate risk on its outstanding borrowings and short-term investments. Presently, the Company has no outstanding borrowings, and historically all borrowings have been at floating interest rates. The Company monitors its exposure to interest rates and has not entered into any derivative contracts to manage this risk. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the weighted average effective interest rate paid by the Company on its outstanding borrowings was Nil (2021 - 1.17%).
During the three and six months ended June, 2022 and June 30, 2021, a fluctuation in interest rates of 100 basis points (1 percent) would have impacted the amount of interest expensed by approximately $Nil and $0.2 million, respectively.
 
5.7.
Other Price Risk
The Company is exposed to equity price risk as a result of holding long-term investments in common shares of various companies. The Company does not actively trade these investments.
If equity prices had been 10% higher or lower at the respective balance sheet date, other comprehensive income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 would have increased/decreased by approximately $6 million and $8 million respectively, as a result of changes in the fair value of common shares held.
 
5.8.
Fair Value Estimation
The Company classifies its fair value measurements within a fair value hierarchy, which reflects the significance of the inputs used in making the measurements as defined in IFRS 13 – Fair Value Measurements (“IFRS 13”).
Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
Level 2 - Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity.
The following table sets forth the Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value by level within the fair value hierarchy. As required by IFRS 13, assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Valuation Techniques for Level 1 Assets
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company’s cash and cash equivalents are valued using quoted market prices in active markets and, as such, are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.
Long-Term Investments in Common Shares Held
The Company’s long-term investments in common shares held are valued using quoted market prices in active markets and, as such, are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of the long-term investments in common shares held is calculated as the quoted market price of the common share multiplied by the quantity of shares held by the Company.
 
5.8.2.
Valuation Techniques for Level 2 Assets
Accounts Receivable Arising from Sales of Metal Concentrates
The Company’s trade receivables and accrued liabilities from provisional concentrate sales are valued based on forward prices of gold and silver to the expected date of final settlement (Note 6). As such, these receivables and/or liabilities are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
Long-Term Investments in Warrants Held
The fair value of the Company’s long-term investments in warrants held that are not traded in an active market are determined using a Black-Scholes model based on assumptions including risk free interest rate, expected dividend yield, expected volatility and expected warrant life which are supported by observable current market conditions and as such are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The use of reasonably possible alternative assumptions would not significantly affect the Company’s results.
 
5.8.3.
Valuation Techniques for Level 3 Assets
Convertible Note Receivable
At February 18, 2022 (the date the Kutcho Convertible Note was terminated) and December 31, 2021, the fair value of the Kutcho Convertible Note (Note 15), which is not traded in an active market, was determined by reference to the value of the shares the Company would receive if the right to convert the note into shares was exercised. This convertible note receivable is classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy and any changes in fair value are reflected on the Consolidated Statement of Earnings under the classification Other (Income) Expense (Note 10).

Gold, Silver and Palladium Credit Sales
Under certain PMPAs, precious metal is acquired from the mine operator in the form of precious metal credits, which is then sold through bullion banks. Revenue from precious metal credit sales is recognized at the time of the sale of such credits, which is also the date that control of the precious metal is transferred to the customer.
The Company will occasionally enter into forward contracts in relation to precious metal deliveries that it is highly confident will occur within a given quarter. The sales price is fixed at the delivery date based on either the terms of these short-term forward sales contracts or the spot price of precious metal.
Concentrate Sales
Under certain PMPAs, gold and/or silver is acquired from the mine operator in concentrate form, which is then sold under the terms of the concentrate sales contracts to third-party smelters or traders. Where the Company acquires precious metal in concentrate form, final precious metal prices are set on a specified future quotational period (the “Quotational Period”) pursuant to the concentrate sales contracts with third-party smelters, typically one to three months after the shipment date, based on market prices for precious metal. The contracts, in general, provide for a provisional payment based upon provisional assays and quoted gold and silver prices. Final settlement is based upon the average applicable price for the Quotational Period applied to the actual number of precious metal ounces recovered calculated using confirmed smelter weights and settlement assays. Revenues and the associated cost of sales are recorded on a gross basis under these contracts at the time title passes to the customer, which is also the date that control of the precious metal is transferred to the customer. The Company has concluded that the adjustments relating to the final assay results for the quantity of concentrate sold and the retroactive pricing adjustment for the Quotational Period are not significant and do not constrain the recognition of revenue.
Cobalt Sales
Cobalt is sold to a third-party sales agent who then
on-sells
the cobalt to Wheaton approved third party customers. Revenue from the sale of cobalt is recognized once the third-party customer and sales terms have been agreed to between Wheaton and the third-party sales agent, which is also the date that control of the cobalt is transferred to the third-party sales agent.

The value allocated to reserves is classified as depletable upon a mining operation achieving first production and is depleted on a
unit-of-production
basis over the estimated recoverable proven and probable reserves at the mine. The value associated with resources and exploration potential is allocated at acquisition and is classified as
non-depletable
until such time as it is transferred to the depletable category, generally as a result of the conversion of resources or exploration potential into reserves.

Acquisition of Curipamba Precious Metals Purchase Agreement
On January 17, 2022, the Company announced that it had entered into a PMPA (the “Curipamba PMPA”) with Adventus Mining Corporation (“Adventus”) in respect of gold and silver production from the Curipamba Project located in Ecuador (the “Curipamba Project”). Under the Curipamba PMPA, Wheaton will purchase an amount of gold equal to 50% of the payable gold production until 145,000 ounces have been delivered, thereafter dropping to 33% of payable gold production for the life of the mine and an amount of silver equal to 75% of the payable silver production until 4.6 million ounces have been delivered, thereafter dropping to 50% for the life of mine. Under the terms of the Curipamba PMPA, the Company is committed to pay Adventus total upfront cash consideration of $175.5 million, $13 million of which is available pre-construction and $500,000 of which will be paid to support certain local community development initiatives around the Curipamba Project. The remainder will be payable in four staged installments during construction, subject to various customary conditions being satisfied. In addition, Wheaton will make ongoing production payments for the gold and silver ounces delivered equal to 18% of the spot prices until the value of gold and silver delivered, net of the production payment, is equal to the upfront consideration of $175.5 million, at which point the production payment will increase to 22% of the spot prices.

Acquisition of Marathon Precious Metals Purchase Agreement
On January 26, 2022, the Company entered into a PMPA with Gen Mining (the “Marathon PMPA”) in respect of gold and platinum production from the Marathon Project located in Ontario, Canada (the “Marathon Project”). Under the Marathon PMPA, Wheaton will purchase an amount of gold equal to 100% of the payable gold production until 150,000 ounces have been delivered, thereafter dropping to 67% of payable gold production for the life of the mine and an amount of platinum production equal to 22% of the payable platinum production until 120,000 ounces have been delivered, thereafter dropping to 15% for the life of mine. Under the terms of the Marathon PMPA, the Company is committed to pay Gen Mining total upfront cash consideration of $192 million (Cdn$240 million), $16 million (Cdn$20 million)
of which was paid on March 31, 2022, $16 million (Cdn$20 million)
of which will be paid prior to construction to be used for the development of the Marathon Project,
and
 the remainder
to be paid
in four staged installments during construction, subject to various customary conditions being satisfied and pre-determined completion tests. I
n
 addition, Wheaton will make ongoing production payments for the gold and platinum ounces delivered equal to 18% of the spot prices until the value of gold and platinum delivered, net of the production payment, is equal to the upfront consideration of Cdn$240 million, at which point the production payment will increase to 22% of the spot prices.
Acquisition of Goose Precious Metals Purchase Agreement
On February 8, 2022, the Company announced that it had entered into a PMPA (the “Goose PMPA”) with Sabina Gold & Silver Corp. (“Sabina”) in respect of gold production from the Goose Project, part of Sabina’s Back River Gold District located in Nunavut, Canada (the “Goose Project”). Under the Goose PMPA, Wheaton will purchase an amount of gold equal to 4.15% of the payable gold production until 130,000 ounces have been delivered, dropping to 2.15% until 200,000 ounces have been delivered, and thereafter dropping to 1.5% of the payable gold production for the life of mine. Under the terms of the Goose PMPA, the Company is committed to pay Sabina an upfront payment of $125 million in four equal installments during construction of the Goose Project, subject to customary conditions. In addition, Wheaton will make ongoing production payments for the gold ounces delivered equal to 18% of the spot gold price until the value of gold delivered, net of the production payment, is equal to the upfront consideration of $125 million, at which point the production payment will increase to 22% of the spot gold
price.
Amendment to the Marmato PMPA
On March 21, 2022, the Company amended its PMPA with Aris Gold Corporation (“Aris Gold”) in respect of the Marmato PMPA. Under the terms of the amended agreement, Wheaton will purchase 10.5% of the gold production and 100% of the silver production from the Marmato Upper and Lower mines until 310,000 ounces of gold and 2.15 million ounces of silver have been delivered, after which the stream drops to 5.25% of the gold production and 50% of the silver production for the life of mine. This increases the gold stream from the original Marmato PMPA under which Wheaton was entitled to purchase 6.5% of the gold production until 190,000 ounces were delivered, after which the stream was to drop to 3.25% of the gold production. The silver stream is unchanged. Under the terms of the amended Marmato PMPA, the Company is committed to pay Aris Gold total upfront cash payments of $175 million ($65 million relating to the increase in the gold stream). Of this amount, $53 million ($15 million relating to the increase in the gold stream) has been paid and the remaining amount is payable during the construction of the Marmato Lower Mine, subject to customary conditions.
 
13.
Early Deposit Mineral Stream Interests
Early deposit mineral stream interests represent agreements relative to early stage development projects whereby Wheaton can choose not to proceed with the agreement once certain documentation has been received including, but not limited to, feasibility studies, environmental studies and impact assessment studies (please see Note 27 for more information). Once Wheaton has elected to proceed with the agreement, the carrying value of the stream will be transferred to Mineral Stream Interests.

Kutcho
– Contract Modifications
As discussed in Note 1
5
, on February 18, 2022, the Company agreed to modify the Kutcho Early Deposit Agreement, including the elimination of the drop-down in attributable gold and silver to 66.7% once certain thresholds had been achieved, and eliminating the requirement to make an additional payment to Kutcho, of up to $20 million, if processing throughput is increased to 4,500 tonnes per day or more within 5 years of attaining commercial production.
 
14.
Mineral Royalty Interests
On January 5, 2021, the Company paid $3 million for an existing 2.0% net smelter return royalty interest on the first 600,000 ounces of gold mined from ore extracted from the Brewery Creek quartz mineral claims located in the Yukon Territories, Canada owned by Golden Predator Exploration Ltd., a subsidiary of Sabre Gold Mines Corp. (“Golden Predator”) and any mineral tenure derived therefrom, and a 2.75% net smelter returns royalty interest thereafter (the “Brewery Creek Royalty”). The Brewery Creek Royalty agreement provides, among other things, that Golden Predator may reduce the 2.75% net smelter returns royalty interest to 2.125%, on payment of the sum of Cdn$2 million to Wheaton.
Additionally, the Company has a 0.5% net smelter return royalty interest in the Metates properties (the “Metates Royalty”) located in Mexico from Chesapeake Gold Corp. (“Chesapeake”) for the life of mine. The carrying cost of the Metates Royalty is $3 million. The Company also has a right of first refusal on any silver streaming, royalty or any other transaction on the Metates properties.
To date, no revenue has been recognized and no depletion has been taken with respect to these royalty agreements.
 
15.
Convertible Notes Receivable
Kutcho Copper Corp.
Effective December 14, 2017, in connection with the Kutcho Early Deposit Agreement, the Company advanced to Kutcho $16 million (Cdn$20 million) and received the Kutcho Convertible Note. The Kutcho Convertible Note, which had a seven year term to maturity, carried interest at 10% per annum, compounded and payable semi-annually. Kutcho elected to defer the first seven interest payments. The deferred interest carried interest at 15% per annum, compounded semi-annually.
In addition to the Kutcho Convertible Note, on November 25, 2019, the Company entered into a
non-revolving
term loan with Kutcho, under which Kutcho had drawn $0.8 million (Cdn$1.0 million). The credit facility carried interest at 15% per annum, compounded monthly.
Effective February 18, 2022, the Company agreed to settle and terminate the Kutcho Convertible Note and the
non-revolving
term loan with Kutcho in exchange for shares of Kutcho valued at $6.7 million in addition to certain other modifications to the Kutcho Early Deposit Agreement, including the elimination of the drop-down in attributable gold and silver to 66.7% once certain thresholds had been achieved, and eliminating the requirement to make an additional payment to Kutcho, of up to $20 million, if processing throughput is increased to 4,500 tonnes per day or more within 5 years of attaining commercial production.

1)
Disposals during 2021 were made in order to capitalize on the share appreciation resulting from the strong commodity price environment.
2)
Fair Value Gains (Losses) are reflected as a component of OCI.
The Company’s long-term investments in common shares (“LTI’s”) are held for long-term strategic purposes and not for trading purposes. As such, the Company has elected to reflect any fair value adjustments, net of tax, as a component of other comprehensive income (“OCI”). The cumulative gain or loss will not be reclassified to net earnings on disposal of these long-term investments but is reclassified to retained earnings.
By holding these long-term investments, the Company is inherently exposed to various risk factors including currency risk, market price risk and liquidity risk.

There is $5 million unamortized debt issue costs associated with the Revolving Facility which have been recorded as a long-term asset under the classification Other (see Note 26).
On July 18, 2022, the term of the Company’s $2 billion revolving term loan (“Revolving Facility”) was extended by an additional year, with the facility now maturing on July 18, 2027.
The Company’s Revolving Facility has financial covenants which require the Company to maintain: (i) a net debt to tangible net worth ratio of less than or equal to 0.75:1; and (ii) an interest coverage ratio of greater than or equal to 3.00:1. Only cash interest expenses are included for the purposes of calculating the interest coverage ratio. The Company is in compliance with these debt covenants as at June 30, 2022.
At the Company’s option, amounts drawn under the Revolving Facility incur interest based on the Company’s leverage ratio at either (i) 
the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) 
plus 1.10% to 2.30%; or (ii) the Bank of Nova Scotia’s Base Rate plus 0.00% to 1.05%. Under both options, the interest rate shall not be less than 0%.
 In connection with the extension, the interest rate paid on drawn amounts and standby fees will be adjusted by up to +/- 0.05% and +/- 0.01%, respectively, based upon the Company’s performance in three sustainability-related areas including climate change,
diversity
and overall performance in sustainability.
The Revolving Facility, which is classified as a financial liability and reported at amortized cost using the effective interest method, can be drawn down at any time to finance acquisitions, investments or for general corporate purposes.

The weighted average price of share purchase options exercised and restricted share units released represents the respective exercise price.
2)
The Company has implemented a dividend reinvestment plan (“DRIP”) whereby shareholders can elect to have dividends reinvested directly into additional Wheaton common shares. The weighted average price for common shares issued under the DRIP represents the volume weighted average price of the common shares on the five trading days preceding the dividend payment date, less a discount of 1%.
At the Market Equity Program
The Company has established an
at-the-market
equity program (the “ATM Program”) that allows the Company to issue up to $300 million worth of common shares from treasury (“Common Shares”) to the public from time to time at the Company’s discretion and subject to regulatory requirements.
The ATM Program will be effective until the date that all Common Shares available for issue under the ATM Program have been issued or the ATM Program is terminated prior to such date by the Company or the agents.
Wheaton intends that the net proceeds from the ATM Program, if any, will be available as one potential source of funding for stream acquisitions and/or other general corporate purposes including the repayment of indebtedness. As at June 30, 2022, the Company has not issued any shares under the ATM program.

The warrants expire on February 28, 2023. Each warrant entitles the holder the right to purchase one of the Company’s common shares.
 
20.2.
Share Purchase Options
The Company has established an equity settled share purchase option plan whereby the Company’s Board of Directors may, from time to time, grant options to employees or consultants. The maximum term of any share purchase option may be ten years, but generally options are granted with a term to expiry of five to seven years. The exercise price of an option is not less than the closing price on the TSX on the last trading day preceding the grant date. The vesting period of the options is determined at the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors at the time the options are granted, but generally vest over a period of two or three years.
Each share purchase option converts into one common share of Wheaton on exercise. No amounts are paid or payable by the recipient on receipt of the option. The options do not carry rights to dividends or voting rights. Options may be exercised at any time from the date of vesting to the date of their expiry, subject to certain
black-out
periods.
The Company expenses the fair value of share purchase options that are expected to vest on a straight-line basis over the vesting period using the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value for each option at the date of grant. The Black-Scholes model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options that have no vesting restrictions. The model requires the use of subjective assumptions, including expected share price volatility. Historical data has been considered in setting the assumptions. Expected volatility is determined by considering the trailing
30-month
historic average share price volatility. The weighted average fair value of share purchase options granted and principal assumptions used in applying the Black-Scholes option pricing model are as follows:

20.3.
Restricted Share Units (“RSUs”)
The Company has established an RSU plan whereby RSUs will be issued to eligible employees or directors as determined by the Company’s Board of Directors or the Company’s Compensation Committee. RSUs give the holder the right to receive a specified number of common shares at the specified vesting date. RSUs generally vest over a period of two to three years. Compensation expense related to RSUs is recognized over the vesting period based upon the fair value of the Company’s common shares on the grant date and the awards that are expected to vest. The fair value is calculated with reference to the closing price of the Company’s common shares on the TSX on the business day prior to the date of grant.
RSU holders receive a cash payment based on the dividends paid on the Company’s common shares in the event that the holder of a vested RSU has elected to defer the release of the RSU to a future date. This cash payment is reflected as a component of net earnings under the classification Share Based Compensation.

The Company has chosen to designate these long-term investments in common shares as financial assets with fair value adjustments being recorded as a component of OCI as it believes that this provides a more meaningful presentation for long-term strategic investments, rather than reflecting changes in fair value as a component of net earnings. As some of these long-term investments are denominated in Canadian dollars, changes in their fair value is affected by both the change in share price in addition to changes in the Cdn$/US$ exchange rate.
Where the fair value of a long-term investment in common shares held exceeds its tax cost, the Company recognizes a deferred income tax liability. To the extent that the value of the long-term investment subsequently declines, the deferred income tax liability is reduced. However, where the fair value of the long-term investment decreases below the tax cost, the Company does not recognize a deferred income tax asset on the unrealized capital loss unless it is probable that the Company will generate future capital gains that will offset the loss.

Share Based Compensation
The Company’s share based compensation consists of share purchase options (Note 20.2), restricted share units (Note 20.3) and performance share units (Note 21.1). The accrued value of share purchase options and restricted share units are reflected as reserves in the shareholder’s equity section of the Company’s balance sheet while the accrued value associated with performance share units is reflected as an accrued liability.
 
21.1.
Performance Share Units (“PSUs”)
The Company has established a Performance Share Unit Plan (“the PSU plan”) whereby PSUs will be issued to eligible employees as determined by the Company’s Board of Directors or the Company’s Compensation Committee. PSUs issued under the PSU plan entitle the holder to a cash payment at the end of a
three year
performance period equal to the number of PSUs granted, multiplied by a performance factor and multiplied by the fair market value of a Wheaton common share on the expiry of the performance period. The performance factor can range from 0% to 200% and is determined by comparing the Company’s total shareholder return to those achieved by various peer companies, the Philadelphia Gold and Silver Index and the price of gold and silver.
Compensation expense for the PSUs is recorded on a straight-line basis over the three year vesting period. The amount of compensation expense is adjusted at the end of each reporting period to reflect (i) the fair value of common shares; (ii) the number of PSUs anticipated to vest; and (iii) the anticipated performance factor.

Earnings per Share (“EPS”) and Diluted Earnings per Share (“Diluted EPS”)
Diluted earnings per share is calculated using the treasury method which assumes that outstanding share purchase options and warrants, with exercise prices that are lower than the average market price of the Company’s common shares for the relevant period, are exercised and the proceeds are used to purchase shares of the Company at the average market price of the common shares for the relevant period.
Diluted EPS is calculated based on the following weighted average number of shares outstanding:

Debt and share financing fees are deducted over a five year period for Canadian income tax purposes. For accounting purposes, debt financing fees are deducted over the term of the credit facility and share financing fees are charged directly to issued capital.
4)
The Company’s position, as reflected in its filed Canadian income tax returns and consistent with the terms of the PMPAs, is that the cost of the precious metal acquired under the Canadian PMPAs is equal to the market value while a deposit is outstanding (where applicable to an agreement), and the cash cost thereafter. For accounting purposes, the cost of the mineral stream interests is depleted on a
unit-of-production
basis as described in Note 4.2.

Under the terms of the Santo Domingo PMPA, the Company is committed to pay Capstone total upfront cash payments of $290 million, $30 million of which was paid on April 21, 2021 and the remaining portion of which is payable during the construction of the Santo Domingo project, subject to customary conditions being satisfied, including Capstone attaining sufficient financing to cover total expected capital expenditures.
Salobo
The Salobo mine currently has a mill throughput capacity of 24 Mtpa. In October 2018, Vale’s Board of Directors approved the investment in the Salobo Expansion, which is proposed to include a third concentrator line and will use Salobo’s existing infrastructure. Vale anticipates that the Salobo Expansion, which is scheduled to start up in the second half of 2022 with a
15-month
ramp-up
period, will result in an increase of throughput capacity from 24 Mtpa to 36 Mtpa.
If actual throughput is expanded above 28 Mtpa, then under the terms of the Salobo PMPA, Wheaton will be required to make an additional set payment to Vale based on the size of the expansion, the timing of completion and the grade of the material processed. The set payment ranges from $113 million if throughput is expanded beyond 28 Mtpa by January 1, 2036 up to $892 million if throughput is expanded beyond 40 Mtpa by January 1, 2023. Assuming the Salobo III expansion project achieves 12 Mtpa of additional processing capacity (bringing total processing capacity at Salobo to 36 Mtpa) during 2023, the Company would expect to pay an estimated expansion payment of between $550 million to $650 million. The actual amount and timing of any expansion payment may significantly differ from this estimate depending on the size, timing and processed grade of any expansion.
Fenix
Under the terms of the Fenix PMPA, the Company is committed to pay total cash consideration of $50 million, of which $25 million was paid on March 25, 2022. The remaining $25 million is payable subject to Rio2’s receipt of its Environmental Impact Assessment for the Fenix Project, and certain other conditions.
On June 28, 2022, Rio2 provided an update on the Fenix Gold environmental assessment process. The Environmental Assessment Service (“SEA”) published the Consolidation Evaluation Report with the recommendation to reject the EIA as it has been alleged that Rio2 has not provided enough information during the evaluation process to eliminate adverse impacts over the chinchilla, guanaco, and vicuña. On July 5, 2022, Rio2 announced that the Regional Evaluation Commission has voted to not approve the EIA. Following this decision, Rio2 provided a further update on July 11, 2022, stating that Rio2 along with its Chilean environmental and legal advisor, are currently evaluating options to continue to advance the project.
The Company’s management has determined that no indicator of impairment existed as of the balance sheet date and will continue to monitor Rio2’s response to this decision.
Blackwater
Under the terms of the Blackwater Silver PMPA, the Company is committed to pay total upfront consideration of $141 million, which is payable in four equal installments during the construction of the Blackwater Project, subject to customary conditions being satisfied.
Marathon
Under the terms of the Marathon PMPA, the Company is committed to pay total upfront cash consideration of $192 million (Cdn$240 million), $16 million (Cdn$20 million) of which was paid on March 31, 2022, $16 million (Cdn$20 million) of which will be paid prior to construction to be used for the development of the Marathon Project, and the remainder to be paid in four staged installments during construction, subject to various customary conditions being satisfied.
Curipamba
Under the terms of the Curipamba PMPA, the Company is committed to pay total upfront cash consideration of $175.5 million, $13 million of which is available
pre-construction
and $500,000 of which will be paid to support certain local community development initiatives around the Curipamba Project. The remainder will be payable in four staged installments during construction, subject to various customary conditions being satisfied.
Goose
Under the terms of the Goose PMPA, the Company is committed to pay total upfront cash consideration of $125 million in four equal installments during construction of the Goose Project, subject to customary conditions.

Toroparu
Under the terms of the Toroparu Early Deposit Agreement, the Company is committed to pay Gold X, a subsidiary of GCM, an additional $138 million, payable on an installment basis to partially fund construction of the mine. GCM is to deliver certain feasibility documentation by December 31, 2022. Following the delivery of this documentation (or after
December 31, 2022 if the feasibility documentation has not been delivered to Wheaton by such date) Wheaton may elect to (i) not proceed with the agreement or (ii) not pay the balance of the upfront consideration and reduce the gold stream percentage from 10% to 0.909% and the silver stream percentage from 50% to nil. If option (i) is chosen, Wheaton will be entitled to a return of the amounts advanced less $2 million. If Wheaton elects option (ii), Gold X may elect to terminate the agreement and Wheaton will be entitled to a return of the amount of the deposit already advanced less $2 million.    
Cotabambas
Under the terms of the Cotabambas Early Deposit Agreement, the Company is committed to pay Panoro a total cash consideration of $140 million, of which $12 million has been paid to date. Once certain conditions have been met, the Company will advance an additional $2 million to Panoro, spread over up to
two
years. Following the delivery of a bankable definitive feasibility study, environmental study and impact assessment, and other related documents (collectively, the “Cotabambas Feasibility Documentation”), and receipt of permits and construction commencing, the Company may then advance the remaining deposit or elect to terminate the Cotabambas Early Deposit Agreement. If the Company elects to terminate, the Company will be entitled to a return of the portion of the amounts advanced less $2 million payable upon certain triggering events occurring.
Kutcho
Under the terms of the Kutcho Early Deposit Agreement, the Company is committed to pay Kutcho a total cash consideration of $65 million, of which $7 million has been paid to date. The remaining $58 million will be advanced on an installment basis to partially fund construction of the mine once certain conditions have been satisfied.
Canada Revenue Agency – Canada Revenue Agency – 2013 to 2016 Taxation Years – Domestic Reassessments
The Company received Notices of Reassessment in 2018, 2019, and 2022 for the 2013 to 2016 taxation years in which the Canada Revenue Agency (“CRA”) is seeking to change the timing of the deduction of upfront payments with respect to the Company’s PMPAs relating to Canadian mining assets, so that the cost of precious metal acquired under these Canadian PMPAs is equal to the cash cost paid on delivery plus an amortized amount of the upfront payment determined on a
units-of-production
basis over the estimated recoverable reserves, and where applicable, resources and exploration potential at the respective mine (the “Domestic Reassessments”).
In total, the Company expects the Domestic Reassessments to have assessed tax, interest and other penalties of approximately
$2 million.
Management believes the Company’s position, as reflected in its filed Canadian income tax returns and consistent with the terms of the PMPAs, that the cost of the precious metal acquired under the Canadian PMPAs is equal to the market value while a deposit is outstanding, and the cash cost thereafter, is correct. The Company has filed Notices of Objection and paid 50% of the disputed amounts in order to challenge the Domestic Reassessments.
Tax Contingencies
Due to the size, complexity and nature of the Company’s operations, various legal and tax matters are outstanding from time to time, including audits and disputes.
Under the terms of the settlement with the CRA of the transfer pricing dispute relating to the 2005 to 2010 taxation years (the “CRA Settlement”), income earned outside of Canada by the Company’s foreign subsidiaries will not be subject to tax in Canada under transfer pricing rules. The CRA Settlement principles apply to all taxation years after 2010 subject to there being no material change in facts or change in law or jurisprudence. The CRA is not restricted under the terms of the CRA Settlement from issuing reassessments on some basis other than transfer pricing which could result in some or all of the income of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries being subject to tax in Canada.
It is not known or determinable by the Company when any ongoing audits by CRA of international and domestic transactions will be completed, or whether reassessments will be issued, or the basis, quantum or timing of any such potential reassessments, and it is therefore not practicable for the Company to estimate the financial effect, if any, of any ongoing audits.

From time to time there may also be proposed legislative changes to law or outstanding legal actions that may have an impact on the current or prior periods, the outcome, applicability and impact of which is also not known or determinable by the Company.

 
General
By their nature, contingencies will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The assessment of contingencies inherently involves the exercise of significant judgment and estimates of the outcome of future events. If the Company is unable to resolve any of these matters favorably, there may be a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial performance, cash flows or results of operations. In the event that the Company’s estimate of the future resolution of any of the foregoing matters changes, the Company will recognize the effects of the change in its consolidated financial statements in the appropriate period relative to when such change occurs.

Declaration of Dividend
Under the Company’s dividend policy, the quarterly dividend per common share is targeted to equal approximately 30% of the average cash flow generated by operating activities in the previous four quarters divided by the Company’s then outstanding common shares, all rounded to the nearest cent. To minimize volatility in quarterly dividends, the Company has set a minimum quarterly dividend for the duration of 2022 equal to the dividend per common share declared in the prior quarter. The declaration, timing, amount and payment of future dividends remain at the discretion of the Board of
 
Directors.
On August 11
, 2022, the Board of Directors declared a dividend in the amount of $0.15 per common share, with this dividend being payable to shareholders of record on August 26, 2022 and is expected to be distributed on or about September 8, 2022. The Company has implemented a dividend reinvestment plan (“DRIP”) whereby shareholders can elect to have dividends reinvested directly into additional Wheaton common shares at a discount of 1% of the Average Market Price, as defined in the DRIP.
