Performance Share Unit ("PSU") Transactions

On December 17, 2021, 119,790 PSUs were granted to the Company’s employees with a weighted average grant date fair value per share of $14.22. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, 69,860 PSUs were forfeited. At June 30, 2022, there were 49,930 PSUs outstanding. On June 30, 2022, unrecognized compensation expense related to the PSUs was $584 which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.5 years.

Deferred Stock Unit ("DSU") Transactions

The following table summarizes the DSU activity for the six months ended June 30, 2022:

		Weighted‑Average
		Grant Date Fair
Employee and Director DSUs	Shares	Value
Outstanding at December 31, 2021	146,796	$	10.88
Outstanding at June 30, 2022	146,796	$	10.88

7.           Net Income (Loss) per Share

Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed similarly, except that weighted-average common shares is increased to reflect the potential dilution that would occur if stock options were exercised or PSUs and DSUs were converted into common stock. The dilutive effects are calculated using the treasury stock method.

For the three months ended June 30, 2022, the Company experienced a net loss, therefore all stock awards have been excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation as they are anti-dilutive. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, stock options outstanding have been excluded from the dilutive earnings per common share calculation as the exercise price of these stock options was greater than the average market value of our common stock for those periods, resulting in an anti-dilutive effect. Additionally, for the six months ended June 30, 2022, all PSUs were excluded from the diluted earnings per common share calculation as the PSUs do not currently meet the criteria for issuance. For both the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the computation of diluted earnings per common share excludes the effect of the assumed exercise of 1,391,236 stock options as the exercise price of these stock options was greater than the average market value of our common stock for those periods, resulting in an anti-dilutive effect.

A reconciliation of basic and diluted earnings per common share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, are as follows:

8.            Fair Value Measurements

The Company establishes a framework for measuring the fair value of assets and liabilities in the form of a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs into valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. This hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. Further, financial assets and liabilities should be classified by level in their entirety based upon the lowest level of input that was significant to the fair value measurement. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

Level 1: Unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that are accessible at the measurement date.

Level 2: Quoted prices in inactive markets for identical assets or liabilities, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, or other observable inputs either directly related to the asset or liability or derived principally from corroborated observable market data.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs due to the fact there is little or no market activity. This entails using assumptions in models which estimate what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

Assets and Liabilities that are Measured at Fair Value on a Non-recurring Basis

The Company discloses and recognizes its non-financial assets and liabilities at fair value on a non-recurring basis and makes adjustments to fair value, as needed (for example, when there is evidence of impairment).

The Company recorded its initial investment in affiliates at fair value within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, as the valuation was determined based on internally developed assumptions with few observable inputs and no market activity. For the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company recorded impairment charges associated with the investment in the LGJV and reduced the carrying amount of such the investment in affiliate to its estimated fair value.

9.            Commitments, Contingencies and Guarantees

In determining its accruals and disclosures with respect to loss contingencies, the Company will charge to income an estimated loss if information available prior to the issuance of the financial statements indicates that it is probable that a liability has been incurred at the date of the financial statements and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Legal expenses associated with the commitments and contingencies are expensed as incurred. If a loss contingency is not probable or reasonably estimable, disclosure of the loss contingency is made in the financial statements when it is at least reasonably possible that a material loss could be incurred.

10

Environmental Contingencies

The Company’s mining and exploration activities are subject to various laws, regulations and permits governing the protection of the environment. These laws, regulations and permits are continually changing and are generally becoming more restrictive. The Company has made, and expects to make in the future, expenditures to comply with such laws, regulations and permits, but cannot predict the full amount of such future expenditures.

Legal

On February 22, 2022, a purported Gatos stockholder filed a putative class action lawsuit in the United States District Court for the District of Colorado against the Company, certain of our former officers, and several directors. An amended complaint was filed on August 15, 2022. The amended complaint, allegedly brought on behalf of certain purchasers of Gatos common stock and certain traders of call and put options on Gatos common stock from December 9, 2020 through January 25, 2022, seeks, among other things, damages, costs, and expenses, and asserts claims under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as well as Sections 11 and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933. The amended complaint alleges that certain individual defendants and Gatos, pursuant to the control and authority of the individual defendants, made false and misleading statements and/or omitted certain material information regarding the mineral resources and reserves at the Cerro Los Gatos mine. Gatos and all defendants filed a motion to dismiss this action on October 14, 2022.That motion was fully briefed as of December 23, 2022.

By Notice of Action issued February 9, 2022 and subsequent Statement of Claim dated March 11, 2022 Izabela Przybylska commenced a putative class action against Gatos Silver, Inc. (“Gatos”), certain of its former officers and directors, and others in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice on behalf of a purported class of all persons or entities, wherever they may reside or be domiciled, who acquired securities of Gatos in both the primary and secondary markets during the period from October 28, 2020 until January 25, 2022. The action asserts claims under Canadian securities legislation and at common law and seeks unspecified monetary damages and other relief in respect of allegations the defendants made false and misleading statements and omitted material information regarding the mineral resources and reserves of Gatos. The plaintiff filed motion materials for leave to proceed in respect of her statutory claims and for class certification on March 3, 2023. The court has tentatively set dates in late March of 2024 for the hearing of the plaintiff’s motions.

There can be no assurance that any of the foregoing matters individually or in aggregate will not result in outcomes that are materially adverse for us.

Dowa Debt Agreements

In July 2017, the LGJV operating entities consisting of Minera Plata Real S. de R.L. de C.V (“MPR”) and Operaciones San Jose del Plata S. de R.L. de C.V. (collectively, the “LGJV Entities”) entered into a loan agreement (the “Term Loan”) with Dowa whereby the LGJV Entities could borrow up to $210,000 for Los Gatos District (“LGD”) development, with a maturity date of December 29, 2027. Interest on the Term Loan accrued daily at LIBOR plus 2.35% per annum, with the interest added to the amount borrowed until commencement of production. During 2018, the LGJV paid Dowa a $4,200 closing fee. Commencing June 30, 2021, repayment of the Term Loan in 14 consecutive semi-annual equal payments of the aggregate principal and capitalized interest began. The Company was required to pay an arrangement fee on the borrowing, calculated as 2% per annum of 70% of the outstanding principal balance, payable in semi-annual installments, on that date which was two business days prior to June 30 and December 31 each fiscal year until maturity, commencing after the initial drawdown which occurred in July 2018. The Term Loan also required additional principal payments equal to 70% of excess cash flows (as defined).

On July 26, 2021, the Term Loan was repaid in full through capital contributions made to the LGJV by the Company and Dowa in pro-rata amounts equal to their ownership in the LGJV of 70% and 30%, respectively. In conjunction with the repayment, the Company paid a fee to Dowa of $10,000.

On January 23, 2018, the LGJV entered into a loan agreement with Dowa (the “Dowa MPR Loan”) whereby the LGJV could borrow up to $65,700 to continue LGD development. Interest on this loan accrued daily at LIBOR plus 1.5% per annum and was added to the amount borrowed. The amount borrowed plus accrued interest was due the earlier of June 30, 2019, or upon the Cerro Los Gatos mine’s substantial completion. If the Company’s 70% portion of the Dowa MPR Loan was not repaid in full on or before the due date, Dowa could elect to convert all or a portion of the principal amount into additional LGJV ownership at a favorable conversion rate.

11

In connection with entering into the WCF (as defined below), the Company contributed $18,200 to the LGJV in May 2019 to provide funding for partial repayment of principal and interest related to the Dowa MPR Loan. In late May 2019, the Dowa MPR Loan was fully extinguished with a cash payment of $18,200 and the conversion of the remaining $50,737 of principal and interest. The conversion of the remaining principal and interest increased Dowa’s ownership in the LGJV entities by 18.5% to 48.5%. On March 11, 2021, the Company repurchased the 18.5% interest from Dowa, for a total consideration of $71,550, increasing the Company’s ownership in the LGJV to 70.0%. These transactions resulted in a $47,400 higher basis than the underlying net assets of the LGJV Entities. This basis difference is being amortized as the LGJV Entities’ proven and probable reserves are processed.

On May 30, 2019, the LGJV entered into a working capital facility agreement (the “WCF”) with Dowa whereby the LGJV could borrow up to $60,000 to fund the working capital and sustaining capital requirements of the LGD. Interest on this loan accrued daily at LIBOR plus 3.0% per annum and all outstanding principal and interest was to mature on June 28, 2021. The Company was required to pay an arrangement fee on the borrowing, calculated as 15.0% per annum of 70.0% of the average daily principal amount outstanding under the WCF during such fiscal quarter. On March 11, 2021, the $60,000 outstanding under the WCF was extinguished using funds contributed to the LGJV. The Company’s pro-rata capital contribution to the LGJV was $42,000.

The Company guarantees the payment of all obligations, including accrued interest, under the LGJV equipment loan agreements. As of June 30, 2022, the LGJV had $2,611 outstanding under the LGJV equipment loan agreements, net of unamortized debt discount of $5, with maturity dates through August 2023.

10.Debt

On July 12, 2021, the Company entered into a Revolving Credit Facility (the “Credit Facility”). The Credit Facility provides for a revolving line of credit in a principal amount of $50,000 and has an accordion feature which at the time allowed for an increase in the total line of credit up to $100,000, subject to certain conditions. Borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest at a rate equal to either the LIBOR rate plus a margin ranging from 3.00% to 4.00% or the U.S. Base Rate plus a margin ranging from 2.00% to 3.00%, as selected by the Company, in each case, with such margin determined in accordance with the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio as of the end of the applicable period. The Credit Facility contains affirmative and negative covenants that are customary for credit agreements of this nature. The affirmative covenants consist of a leverage ratio, a liquidity covenant and an interest coverage ratio. The negative covenants include, among other things, limitations on asset sales, mergers, acquisitions, indebtedness, liens, dividends and distributions, investments and transactions with affiliates. Obligations under the Credit Facility may be accelerated upon the occurrence of certain customary events of default. The Company was in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Facility, as amended, as of June 30, 2022.

On July 19, 2021, the Company borrowed $13,000 under the Credit Facility at a rate of LIBOR plus 3%. Debt issuance costs of $442 were to be amortized through July 31, 2024, prior to the amended and restated Credit Facility (see terms below). The current balance outstanding on the Credit Facility is $9,000, following a $4,000 principal repayment in December 2022.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recognized interest expense of $123 and $226, respectively, with an effective interest rate of 3.5% and 3.8%, respectively, which has been recorded on the statements of operations under other income, and $37 and $74, respectively, for amortization of debt issuance costs. The Company paid interest of $125 and $227 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.

On March 7, 2022, the Company amended the Credit Facility with the lender, Bank of Montreal (“BMO”), to address potential loan covenant deficiencies. The amendment included the following revisions:

● audited financial statements were to be provided prior to November 15, 2022;

● the credit limit was reduced to $30,000, until the Company delivered a new LOM CLG financial model with updated mineral reserves;

● upon assessment of the new CLG financial model, BMO, in its sole discretion, could increase the credit limit up to the original $50,000;

● requirement to provide updated financial projections for the CLG by September 30, 2022. The financial projections were provided by the required date and it was used as the basis for the amendment entered into on December 19, 2022 discussed below; and

12

● waivers of certain defaults, events of default, representations and warranties and covenants arising out of the facts that led to the potential reduction in metal content of the Company’s previously stated mineral reserve figures.

On December 19, 2022, the Company entered an amended and restated Credit Facility with BMO extending the maturity date and re-establishing a credit limit of $50,000, with an accordion feature providing up to an additional $25,000. Key terms of the amended Credit Facility include:

● audited financial statements for fiscal year 2021 are to be provided no later than April 15, 2023, and audited financial statements for fiscal year 2022 and unaudited financial statements for the first three fiscal quarters in fiscal year 2022 are to be provided no later than April 30, 2023;

● the maturity date is extended from July 31, 2024 to December 31, 2025;

● a change in the benchmark interest rate from LIBOR to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”); and

● loans under the Revolver bear interest at a rate equal to either a term SOFR rate plus a margin ranging from 3.00% to 4.00% or a U.S. base rate plus a margin ranging from 2.00% to 3.00%, as selected by the Company.

12.         Investment in Affiliate

During the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company recognized $765 and $18,291 of income, respectively, and during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company recognized $25,379 and $20,992 of income, respectively, on its investment in the LGJV Entities, representing its ownership share of the LGJV Entities’ results. The equity income or loss in affiliate includes amortization of the carrying value of the investment in excess of the underlying net assets of the LGJV Entities. This basis difference is being amortized as the LGJV Entities’ proven and probable reserves are processed.

The Company provided an updated technical report compliant with Regulation S-K subpart 1300 (the “Los Gatos Technical Report”) dated November 10, 2022. The Los Gatos Technical Report indicated a significant decrease in the mineral reserve and mineral resource from the previously issued technical report in 2020. The Company considered this reduction in the mineral reserve

13

and mineral resources as an indicator of a possible other-than-temporary impairment and as a result compared the carrying value of the LGJV on December 31, 2021 to the fair value of the LGJV.

The fair value of the LGJV was estimated based on the net present value of the expected cash flows to be generated by the LGJV on 70% basis. The discount rate used was 5.00%. The fair value of the investment in the LGJV was estimated to be $355,310 and the carrying value at December 31, 2021 was $406,874. Since the carrying value exceeded the fair value, an impairment charge of $51,564 was recorded during the fourth quarter of 2021. See Note 8 - Fair Value Measurements for additional detail of the assumptions used in the determination of the fair value of the long-lived assets tested for impairment.

For the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company contributed $260,039 to the LGJV to repurchase 18.5% of the ownership of the LGJV, to retire the WCF and the Term Loan and in support of exploration activities.

On March 17, 2022, we entered into a definitive agreement with Dowa to build and operate a leaching plant to reduce fluorine levels in zinc concentrates produced at CLG at an expected construction cost of $6,000. As part of the agreement, the initial payment of the $20,000 due to Dowa under the partner’s priority distribution agreement was reduced to $10,300. The reduced priority dividend amount reflects a portion of both the construction and future estimated operating costs of the leaching plant and is dependent on the successful construction and operation of the leaching plant. Should the leaching plant construction not be completed, or the leaching plant not operate according to certain parameters during the first five years, portions of the $9,700 reduction could be reinstated.

In April 2022, the LGJV paid its first dividend of $20,000 to its partners. The Company’s share of the first dividend was $14,000, before withholding taxes of $700. A payment of $7,365 was subsequently made to Dowa to cover the full amount of the reduced initial priority distribution due, for a net dividend received of $5,935.

The LGJV Entities combined balance sheets as of June 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021, and the combined statements of income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, are as follows:

Overview

We are a Canadian headquartered, Delaware incorporated precious metals exploration, development and production company with the objective of becoming a leading silver producer. Our primary efforts are focused on the operation of the LGJV in Chihuahua, Mexico. The LGJV was formed on January 1, 2015 when we entered into the Unanimous Omnibus Partner Agreement with Dowa to further explore, and potentially develop and operate mining properties within the LGD. The LGJV Entities own certain surface and mineral rights associated with the LGD. The LGJV ownership is currently 70% Gatos Silver and 30% Dowa. On September 1, 2019, the LGJV commenced commercial production at CLG, which produces a silver containing lead concentrate and zinc concentrate. We are currently focused on the production and continued development of the CLG and the further exploration and development of the LGD.

Second Quarter and First Half 2022 Highlights

Gatos Silver

Second Quarter and First Half 2022

● The Company recorded a net loss of $2.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $13.5 million of net income in the same period of the prior year as a result of lower equity income from affiliates earned during the second quarter of 2022;

● The Company recorded net income of $16.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to a net income of $11.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 primarily due to $4.5 million increase in equity income from the LGJV; and

● The cash balance at June 30, 2022 was $7.3 million compared to $6.6 million at December 31, 2021, and access to the Credit Facility was maintained albeit at a reduced level. On December 19, 2022, the Credit Facility was extended and the full $50 million availability under the Credit Facility has been restored of which $9 million is currently drawn.

LGJV

Operational highlights

Second Quarter 2022

● Silver production was 2.3 million ounces for the three months ended June 30, 2022, an 8% increase over the 2.1 million ounces of silver produced for the three months ended June 30, 2021 primarily as a result of higher ore grades. The majority of production for the quarter was sourced from the Central Zone with the remainder from the Northwest Zone and the initial development into the Southeast Upper Zone;

● The processing plant processed 211,350 tonnes, a decrease of 8% compared to the second quarter of 2021, as a result of a temporary blasting suspension in the mine that impacted ore production for over two weeks starting in late April. Milling operations were suspended for 11 operating days due to the blasting suspension. The mill averaged 2,323 tonnes per day during the quarter. Excluding the suspension time, the mill averaged 2,642 tonnes per day during the quarter;

● Metal recoveries exceeded design rates for payable metals with silver recovery averaging 90.4%, zinc recovery averaging 66.4% and lead recovery averaging 90.5%; and

● Construction progress on key infrastructure projects continued, including the installation of underground dewatering equipment, the paste plant and a tailings dam raise. These projects are expected to support increased productivity and to help reduce unit operating costs. The tailings dam raise and the paste plant were subsequently completed in the fourth quarter of 2022.

First Half 2022

● CLG achieved record production of 4.7 million ounces of silver, 22.0 million pounds of lead and 29.3 million pounds of zinc for the six months ended June 30, 2022;

19

● The processing plant processed 446,335 tonnes, an increase of 2% compared to the first half of 2021, as a result of a increased throughput rates partially offset by the temporary blasting suspension in the mine that impacted ore production for over two weeks starting in late April; and

● Metal recoveries exceeded design rates for payable metals with silver recovery averaging 90.1%, zinc recovery averaging 65.4% and lead recovery averaging 89.9%.

Financial highlights

Second Quarter 2022

● Revenue of $57.2 million decreased 24% for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021, primarily due to the mark-to-market adjustment of provisional revenue as a result of the decrease in commodity prices during the second quarter of 2022;

● Cost of sales totaled $27.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, 16% higher compared to the same period in 2021, primarily as a result of increased operational costs primarily as a result of increased production, and increased equipment maintenance costs, cost of materials & supplies and higher power cost. Compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021, co-product cash cost per ounce of payable silver equivalent and by-product cash cost per ounce of payable silver decreased by 19% and 103% respectively, to $9.36 and ($0.10), respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2022;

● Compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021, co-product all-in sustaining cost per ounce of payable silver equivalent and by-product all-in sustaining cost per ounce of payable silver decreased by 15% and 18% respectively, to $14.94 and $10.41, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2022;

● LGJV net income totaled $3.5 million the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to $29.3 million in the same period in 2021. The 88% decrease in net income is primarily due to mark-to-market provisional revenue adjustments and higher costs of sales and depreciation, depletion and amortization incurred for the three months ended June 30, 2022; and

● The LGJV declared and paid its first dividend of $20 million in April 2022. This dividend paid the initial priority dividend due to Dowa. The dividend was paid to each partner on a pro rata basis net of withholding taxes.

First Half 2022

● Revenue of $144.8 million increased 19% for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021 primarily due the increase in metal grades and higher realized metal prices;

Three Months Ended June 30, 2022 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2021

Exploration expenses

During 2022, our exploration activities were focused on the LGJV and no exploration costs were incurred for our wholly owned properties outside of the first quarter of 2022.

General and administrative expenses

During the three months ended June 30, 2022, we incurred general and administration expense of $4.3 million compared to $5.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The $1.4 million decrease is primarily due to lower share-based compensation expense.

Equity income in affiliates

The decrease in equity income resulted primarily from the LGJV recording lower net income of $3.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to $29.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease in net income at the LGJV was primarily due to mark-to-market provisional revenue adjustments and also higher costs of sales and depreciation, depletion and amortization incurred for the three months ended June 30, 2022.

Other Income

Other income for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 consist primarily of management fees the Company received of $1.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 from the LGJV.

21

Net income (loss)

For the quarter ended June 30, 2022, we recorded a net loss of $2.4 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, compared to a net income of $13.5 million, or $0.22 per diluted share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2021, mainly due to the decrease in equity income in affiliates as described above.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2022 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2021

Exploration expenses

During 2022, our exploration activities were focused on the LGJV and no exploration costs were incurred for our wholly owned properties outside of the first quarter of 2022.

General and administrative expenses

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we incurred general and administration expenses of $11.0 million, compared to $10.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 primarily due to higher legal fees attributable to legal consultation regarding the mineral resource and mineral reserve errors in the July 2020 technical report for CLG.

Equity income in affiliates

The increase in equity income resulted primarily from the LGJV recording net income of $40.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to $36.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in net income at the LGJV was primarily due to the increase in concentrate sold, higher grade and higher realized metals prices for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Other Income

Other income for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 consists primarily of management fees the Company received of $2.5 million in the first half of 2022 and 2021 from the LGJV.

Net income

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, we recorded net income of $16.4 million, or $0.24 per diluted share, compared to net income of $11.9 million, or $0.20 per diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2021, mainly due to the increase in equity income in affiliates as described above.

LGJV

Three Months Ended June 30, 2022 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2021

Revenue

The LGJV’s concentrate sales for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 are summarized below:

	Three Months Ended June 30,
	2022		2021
Lead concentrate revenue	$	51,005	$	59,378
Zinc concentrate revenue		28,750		20,476
Treatment and refining charges		(4,880)		(4,473)
Subtotal		74,875		75,381
Provisional revenue adjustments		(17,679)		(376)
Total Revenue	$	57,196	$	75,005

Revenue decreased by 24% for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease in revenue is primarily due to provisional revenue reductions and decreased realized silver prices, partially offset by slightly higher concentrate production.

23

Lead revenue decreased by 14% for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021, primarily due to a 23% decrease in the realized silver price and 3% decrease in the realized lead prices partially offset by an 8% increase in lead concentrate production and higher silver and lead ore grades.

Zinc revenue increased by 40% for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021, primarily due to a 14% increase in the realized zinc price, a 7% increase in zinc concentrate production and higher silver and zinc ore grades, partially offset by a 23% decrease in the realized silver price.

Provisional revenue adjustments account for commodity price fluctuations in concentrate sales still subject to final settlement. Provisional revenue adjustments were lower period over period primarily due to decreases in actual and forward metals prices at the end of June 2022 as compared to the end of June 2021.

Cost of sales

Cost of sales increased by 16% primarily as a result of increased production, and increased equipment maintenance, materials & supplies and power costs. Co-product cash cost per ounce of payable silver equivalent and by-product cash cost per ounce of payable silver for the three months ended June 30, 2022 decreased by 19% and 103% respectively, to $9.36 and ($0.10), respectively, primarily due to higher metal production for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021.

Royalties

Royalty expense decreased by $0.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021 due to lower revenue and the reduction of the royalty percentage for the three months ended June 30, 2022 based on the terms of the royalty agreement.

General and administrative

General and administrative expense for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was $0.8 million higher as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021 primarily due to inflation.

Depreciation, depletion and amortization

Depreciation, depletion, and amortization expense increased by approximately 26% quarter over quarter primarily as a result of an increase in tonnes mined and also due to the decrease in the mineral reserve and the shorter mine life based on the Los Gatos Technical Report dated November 10, 2022. The lower mineral reserve tonnes and shorter life-of-mine reduced the basis for the depreciation and as a result increased the depreciation, depletion, and amortization expense incurred for the three months ended June 30, 2022.

Exploration

Exploration expense for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was $0.9 million higher as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021 primarily as a result of increased surface drilling around CLG, Esther and greenfield exploration targets. The dominant focus for drilling was at CLG aiming to convert Inferred Resources to Indicated and also to expand the Inferred Resource base, particularly in the South-East Deeps area.

Other (income) expense

Other (income) expense was lower primarily due to a 93% decrease in interest expense due to lower interest rates, lower borrowings and lower arrangement fees incurred during the three months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021 as a result of the retirement of the WCF and the Term Loan in March 2021 and July 2021, respectively.

Income and mining tax expense

Income and mining tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was $1.7 million higher as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2021 as a result of increased taxable income and less available losses carried forward.

24

Net income

For the three months ended June 30, 2022, the LGJV had net income of $3.5 million compared to $29.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The change in net income was primarily due to the decrease in revenue driven by the mark-to-market adjustment of provisional revenue as a result of the decrease in commodity prices during the quarter, as well as an increase in cost of sales and depreciation depletion and amortization. In addition, interest expense decreased 93% due to lower borrowings and lower arrangement fees resulting from the retirement of the WCF and Term Loan.

Sustaining capital

For the three months ended June 30, 2022 sustaining capital expenditures primarily consisted of $7.3 million of mine development, $8.3 million on the construction of the paste-fill plant, $2.5 million on the construction of the raise of the tailings storage facility, $0.5 million on underground power distribution infrastructure and $0.8 million on the construction of a ventilation raise. During the three months ended June 30, 2021 major sustaining capital expenditures included $8.0 million of mine development, $2.4 million on the processing plant and tailings storage facility, $0.7 million for the construction of a ventilation raise, $0.8 million for the purchase of mining equipment, and $2.6 million on the construction of dewatering wells.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2022 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2021

Revenue

The LGJV’s concentrate sales for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, are summarized below, in thousands:

	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2022		2021
Lead concentrate revenue	$	111,087	$	100,927
Zinc concentrate revenue		55,978		32,410
Treatment and refining charges		(9,844)		(11,195)
Subtotal		157,221		122,142
Provisional revenue adjustments		(12,417)		(807)
Total Revenue	$	144,804	$	121,335

Revenue increased by 19% for the six months ended June 30 2022 compared to the six months ended June 30 2021, as a result of increased concentrate sales and realized lead and zinc prices in the first half of 2022 partially offset by provisional revenue reductions.

Lead concentrate revenue increased by 10% for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021, primarily due to an 17% increase in lead concentrate production, higher silver and lead ore grades and 5% increase in the realized lead prices, partially offset by an 12% decrease in the realized silver price.

Zinc concentrate revenue increased by 73% for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021, primarily due to a 29% increase in the realized zinc price and a 20% increase in zinc concentrate production, partially offset by a lower silver and zinc recoveries and a 12% decrease in the realized silver price.

Provisional revenue adjustments account for commodity price fluctuations in concentrate sales still subject to final settlement. Provisional revenue adjustments were lower period over period primarily due to decreases in actual and forward metals prices at the end of June 2022 as compared to the beginning of the period, compared to the end of June 2021.

Cost of sales

Cost of sales increased by 21% primarily as a result of increased production, increased equipment maintenance, materials & supplies and power costs during 2022. Co-product cash cost per ounce of payable silver equivalent and by-product cash cost per ounce of payable silver decreased by 27% and 97% respectively, to $9.54 and $0.16, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2022 primarily due to higher metal production.

25

Royalties

Royalty expense increased by $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 due to higher revenue partially offset by the reduction of the royalty percentage for the six months ended June 30, 2022 based on the terms of the royalty agreement.

General and administrative

General and administrative expense for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was 6% higher as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021 primarily due to inflation.

Depreciation, depletion and amortization

Depreciation, depletion, and amortization expense increased by 37% for the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021 primarily as a result of an increase in tonnes mined and also due to the decrease in the mineral reserve and the shorter mine life based on the Los Gatos Technical Report dated November 10, 2022. The lower mineral reserve tonnes and shorter life-of-mine reduced the basis for the depreciation and as a result increased the depreciation, depletion, and amortization expense for the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Exploration

Exploration expense for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $2.5 million higher as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021 primarily as a result of increased surface drilling around CLG, Esther and greenfield exploration targets. The dominant focus for drilling was at CLG aiming to convert Inferred Resources to Indicated and also to expand the Inferred Resource base, particularly in the South-East Deeps area.

Other (income) expense

Other (income) expense were lower primarily due to a 94% decrease in interest expense due to lower interest rates, lower borrowings and lower arrangement fees incurred during the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the six months ended June 30 2021 as a result of the retirement of the WCF and the Term Loan in March 2021 and July 2021, respectively.

Income and mining tax expense

Income and mining tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $6.2 million higher as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021 as a result of increased taxable income and less available losses carried forward.

Net Income

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, the LGJV had net income of $40.4 million compared to $36.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The change in net income was primarily due to the increase in revenue driven by the strong improvement in production during 2022, partially offset by the mark-to-market adjustment of provisional revenue as a result of the decrease in commodity prices, an increase in cost of sales, royalties, exploration and depreciation depletion and amortization. In addition, interest expense decreased 94% due to lower borrowings and lower arrangement fees resulting from the retirement of the WCF and Term Loan.

Sustaining capital

During the six months ended June 30, 2022 sustaining capital expenditures primarily consisted of $14.5 million on mine development, $13.6 million on the construction of the paste-fill plant, $5.8 million on the construction of the raise of the tailings storage facility, $1.6 million on underground power distribution infrastructure and $1.5 million on the construction of a ventilation raise. During the six months ended June 30, 2021 major sustaining capital expenditures included $14.4 million on mine development, $4.4 million on the processing plant and tailings storage facility, $1.3 million for the construction of a ventilation raise, $2.0 million for the purchase of mining equipment and $3.4 million on the construction of dewatering wells.

Six months ended June 30, 2022 compared to June 30, 2021

Cash provided by operating activities was $80.5 million and $56.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The $24.3 million increase in cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to the increase in revenue due to

27

higher metals prices and higher ore grades for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to the prior year period, partially offset by increased income taxes, receivables from customers and other favorable working capital changes.

Cash used by investing activities was $38.1 million and $38.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The $0.5 million decrease in cash used was primarily due to $5.6 million of lower mine development expenditures largely related to ventilation and pumping wells, partially offset by $5.0 million of higher expenditures for property, plant and equipment largely related to construction of the paste plant. The majority of property, plant and equipment expenditures in 2022 are related to construction of the paste plant and continued construction of the tailings dam raise.

Cash used by financing activities was $22.3 million and $17.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The $5.3 million increase in cash used was primarily due to $19 million of dividends paid to partners in 2022. For the six months ended June 30, 2021 financing activities consisted of capital contributions of $62.4 million received, $15.9 million paid for Term Loan payment in June 2021 and the $60.0 million paid to extinguish the Working Capital Facility.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $7.3 million and $6.6 million, respectively. The increase in cash and cash equivalents was primarily due to receipt of the first dividend payment in April 2022 of $5.9 million partially offset by operating costs.

On July 12, 2021, the Company entered into the Credit Facility that provides for a $50 million revolving line of credit and has an accordion feature, which allows for an increase in the total line of credit up to $100 million (reduced to $75 million per the December 19, 2022 amendment), subject to certain conditions. As of December 31, 2021, $13.0 million was outstanding under the Credit Facility. As of the date of this report the balance outstanding on the Credit Facility is $9.0 million following a $4.0 million principal repayment in December 2022.

On February 28, 2023 the Company’s cash and cash equivalents were $15.6 million and we had $41.0 million available to be drawn under the Credit Facility. The LGJV had cash and cash equivalents of $55.5 million at February 28, 2023. We believe we have sufficient cash and access to borrowings and other resources to carry out our business plans for at least the next 12 months. We may decide to increase our current financial resources with external financings if our long-term business needs require us to do so, however there can be no assurance that the financing will be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all. We manage liquidity risk through our credit facility and the management of our capital structure.

Contractual Obligations

There have been no changes from the contractual obligations described in our 2021 10-K.

Critical Accounting Policies

Please refer to Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in our consolidated financial statements included in this Report and the 2021 10-K for discussion of our critical accounting policies and estimates.

Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012

The Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”) permits us, as an “emerging growth company,” to take advantage of an extended transition period to comply with new or revised accounting standards applicable to public companies. We have elected to “opt out” of this provision and, as a result, we will comply with new or revised accounting standards on the relevant dates on which adoption of such standards is required for public companies that are not emerging growth companies. The decision to opt out of the extended transition period under the JOBS Act is irrevocable.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We use certain measures that are not defined by GAAP to evaluate various aspects of our business. These non-GAAP financial measures are intended to provide additional information only and do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. The measures are not necessarily indicative of operating profit or cash flow from operations as determined under GAAP. Please see “Cash Costs and All-In Sustaining Costs” and “Reconciliation of expenses (GAAP) to non-GAAP measures” below.

Cash Costs and All-In Sustaining Costs

Cash costs and all-in sustaining costs (“AISC”) are non-GAAP measures. AISC was calculated based on guidance provided by the World Gold Council (“WGC”). WGC is not a regulatory industry organization and does not have the authority to develop accounting standards for disclosure requirements. Other mining companies may calculate AISC differently as a result of differences in underlying accounting principles and policies applied, as well as definitional differences of sustaining versus expansionary (i.e. non-sustaining) capital expenditures based upon each company’s internal policies. Current GAAP measures used in the mining industry, such as cost of sales, do not capture all of the expenditures incurred to discover, develop and sustain production. Therefore, we believe that cash costs and AISC are non-GAAP measures that provide additional information to management, investors and analysts that aid in the understanding of the economics of the Company’s operations and performance compared to other producers and provides investors visibility by better defining the total costs associated with production.

Cash costs include all direct and indirect operating cash costs related directly to the physical activities of producing metals, including mining, processing and other plant costs, treatment and refining costs, general and administrative costs, royalties and mining production taxes. AISC includes total production cash costs incurred at the LGJV’s mining operations plus sustaining capital expenditures. The Company believes this measure represents the total sustainable costs of producing silver from current operations and provides additional information of the LGJV’s operational performance and ability to generate cash flows. As the measure seeks to reflect the full cost of silver production from current operations, new project and expansionary capital at current operations are not included. Certain cash expenditures such as new project spending, tax payments, dividends, and financing costs are not included.

Reconciliation of expenses (GAAP) to non-GAAP measures

The table below presents a reconciliation between the most comparable GAAP measure of the LGJV’s expenses to the non-GAAP measures of (i) cash costs, (ii) cash costs, net of by-product credits, (iii) co-product all-in sustaining costs and (iv) by-product all-in sustaining costs for our operations.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

We are a smaller reporting company and are not required to provide disclosure pursuant to this Item.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We have established disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act, that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2022. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2022, due to the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting described in the 2021 10-K.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have not been any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2022, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and fraud. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. Further, the design of a control system must reflect resource constraints, which require management to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been 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 management’s override of the control.

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 potential future conditions. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.  Legal Proceedings

We are, from time to time, involved in legal proceedings of a nature considered normal to our business. We believe that other than as set out below in this Item none of the litigation in which we are currently involved, or have been involved since the beginning of our most recently completed financial year, individually or in the aggregate, is material to or potentially material to our consolidated financial condition, cash flows or results of operations.

On February 22, 2022, a purported Company stockholder filed a putative class action lawsuit in the United States District Court for the District of Colorado against the Company, certain of our former officers, and several directors. An amended complaint was filed on August 15, 2022. The amended complaint, allegedly brought on behalf of certain purchasers of the Company’s common stock and certain traders of call and put options on the Company’s common stock from December 9, 2020 through January 25, 2022, seeks, among other things, damages, costs, and expenses, and asserts claims under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as well as Sections 11 and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933. The amended complaint alleges that certain individual defendants and the Company, pursuant to the control and authority of the individual defendants, made false and misleading statements and/or omitted certain material information regarding the mineral resources and reserves at the Cerro Los Gatos mine. The Company and all defendants filed a motion to dismiss this action on October 14, 2022. That motion was fully briefed as of December 23, 2022.

By Notice of Action issued February 9, 2022 and subsequent Statement of Claim dated March 11, 2022 Izabela Przybylska commenced a putative class action against the Company, certain of its former officers and directors, and others in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice on behalf of a purported class of all persons or entities, wherever they may reside or be domiciled, who acquired securities of the Company in both the primary and secondary markets during the period from October 28, 2020 until January 25, 2022. The action asserts claims under Canadian securities legislation and at common law and seeks unspecified monetary damages and other relief in respect of allegations the defendants made false and misleading statements and omitted material information regarding the mineral resources and reserves of the Company. The plaintiff filed motion materials for leave to proceed in respect of her statutory claims and for class certification on March 3, 2023. The court has tentatively set dates in late March of 2024 for the hearing of the plaintiff’s motions.

There can be no assurance that any of the foregoing matters individually or in aggregate will not result in outcomes that are materially adverse for us.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those in this Report include, but are not limited to, any of the risks described in the 2021 10-K. Any of these factors could result in a significant or material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition. Additional risk factors not currently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also adversely affect us. As of the date of this Report, there have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in the 2021 10-K.

Item 2.  Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company did not issue any shares of its common stock or other equity securities that were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

Purchase of Equity Securities by the Issuer and Affiliated Purchasers

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, there were no purchases made by or on behalf of the Company or any affiliated purchaser of the Company’s common stock.

Net Income (Loss) per Share

Jun. 30, 2022

Net Income (Loss) per Share

Net Income (Loss) per Share

7.           Net Income (Loss) per Share

Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed similarly, except that weighted-average common shares is increased to reflect the potential dilution that would occur if stock options were exercised or PSUs and DSUs were converted into common stock. The dilutive effects are calculated using the treasury stock method.

For the three months ended June 30, 2022, the Company experienced a net loss, therefore all stock awards have been excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation as they are anti-dilutive. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, stock options outstanding have been excluded from the dilutive earnings per common share calculation as the exercise price of these stock options was greater than the average market value of our common stock for those periods, resulting in an anti-dilutive effect. Additionally, for the six months ended June 30, 2022, all PSUs were excluded from the diluted earnings per common share calculation as the PSUs do not currently meet the criteria for issuance. For both the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the computation of diluted earnings per common share excludes the effect of the assumed exercise of 1,391,236 stock options as the exercise price of these stock options was greater than the average market value of our common stock for those periods, resulting in an anti-dilutive effect.

A reconciliation of basic and diluted earnings per common share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, are as follows:

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements

8.            Fair Value Measurements

The Company establishes a framework for measuring the fair value of assets and liabilities in the form of a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs into valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. This hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. Further, financial assets and liabilities should be classified by level in their entirety based upon the lowest level of input that was significant to the fair value measurement. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

Level 1: Unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that are accessible at the measurement date.

Level 2: Quoted prices in inactive markets for identical assets or liabilities, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, or other observable inputs either directly related to the asset or liability or derived principally from corroborated observable market data.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs due to the fact there is little or no market activity. This entails using assumptions in models which estimate what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

Assets and Liabilities that are Measured at Fair Value on a Non-recurring Basis

The Company discloses and recognizes its non-financial assets and liabilities at fair value on a non-recurring basis and makes adjustments to fair value, as needed (for example, when there is evidence of impairment).

The Company recorded its initial investment in affiliates at fair value within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, as the valuation was determined based on internally developed assumptions with few observable inputs and no market activity. For the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company recorded impairment charges associated with the investment in the LGJV and reduced the carrying amount of such the investment in affiliate to its estimated fair value.

In determining its accruals and disclosures with respect to loss contingencies, the Company will charge to income an estimated loss if information available prior to the issuance of the financial statements indicates that it is probable that a liability has been incurred at the date of the financial statements and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Legal expenses associated with the commitments and contingencies are expensed as incurred. If a loss contingency is not probable or reasonably estimable, disclosure of the loss contingency is made in the financial statements when it is at least reasonably possible that a material loss could be incurred.

Environmental Contingencies

The Company’s mining and exploration activities are subject to various laws, regulations and permits governing the protection of the environment. These laws, regulations and permits are continually changing and are generally becoming more restrictive. The Company has made, and expects to make in the future, expenditures to comply with such laws, regulations and permits, but cannot predict the full amount of such future expenditures.

Legal

On February 22, 2022, a purported Gatos stockholder filed a putative class action lawsuit in the United States District Court for the District of Colorado against the Company, certain of our former officers, and several directors. An amended complaint was filed on August 15, 2022. The amended complaint, allegedly brought on behalf of certain purchasers of Gatos common stock and certain traders of call and put options on Gatos common stock from December 9, 2020 through January 25, 2022, seeks, among other things, damages, costs, and expenses, and asserts claims under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as well as Sections 11 and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933. The amended complaint alleges that certain individual defendants and Gatos, pursuant to the control and authority of the individual defendants, made false and misleading statements and/or omitted certain material information regarding the mineral resources and reserves at the Cerro Los Gatos mine. Gatos and all defendants filed a motion to dismiss this action on October 14, 2022.That motion was fully briefed as of December 23, 2022.

By Notice of Action issued February 9, 2022 and subsequent Statement of Claim dated March 11, 2022 Izabela Przybylska commenced a putative class action against Gatos Silver, Inc. (“Gatos”), certain of its former officers and directors, and others in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice on behalf of a purported class of all persons or entities, wherever they may reside or be domiciled, who acquired securities of Gatos in both the primary and secondary markets during the period from October 28, 2020 until January 25, 2022. The action asserts claims under Canadian securities legislation and at common law and seeks unspecified monetary damages and other relief in respect of allegations the defendants made false and misleading statements and omitted material information regarding the mineral resources and reserves of Gatos. The plaintiff filed motion materials for leave to proceed in respect of her statutory claims and for class certification on March 3, 2023. The court has tentatively set dates in late March of 2024 for the hearing of the plaintiff’s motions.

There can be no assurance that any of the foregoing matters individually or in aggregate will not result in outcomes that are materially adverse for us.

Dowa Debt Agreements

In July 2017, the LGJV operating entities consisting of Minera Plata Real S. de R.L. de C.V (“MPR”) and Operaciones San Jose del Plata S. de R.L. de C.V. (collectively, the “LGJV Entities”) entered into a loan agreement (the “Term Loan”) with Dowa whereby the LGJV Entities could borrow up to $210,000 for Los Gatos District (“LGD”) development, with a maturity date of December 29, 2027. Interest on the Term Loan accrued daily at LIBOR plus 2.35% per annum, with the interest added to the amount borrowed until commencement of production. During 2018, the LGJV paid Dowa a $4,200 closing fee. Commencing June 30, 2021, repayment of the Term Loan in 14 consecutive semi-annual equal payments of the aggregate principal and capitalized interest began. The Company was required to pay an arrangement fee on the borrowing, calculated as 2% per annum of 70% of the outstanding principal balance, payable in semi-annual installments, on that date which was two business days prior to June 30 and December 31 each fiscal year until maturity, commencing after the initial drawdown which occurred in July 2018. The Term Loan also required additional principal payments equal to 70% of excess cash flows (as defined).

On July 26, 2021, the Term Loan was repaid in full through capital contributions made to the LGJV by the Company and Dowa in pro-rata amounts equal to their ownership in the LGJV of 70% and 30%, respectively. In conjunction with the repayment, the Company paid a fee to Dowa of $10,000.

On January 23, 2018, the LGJV entered into a loan agreement with Dowa (the “Dowa MPR Loan”) whereby the LGJV could borrow up to $65,700 to continue LGD development. Interest on this loan accrued daily at LIBOR plus 1.5% per annum and was added to the amount borrowed. The amount borrowed plus accrued interest was due the earlier of June 30, 2019, or upon the Cerro Los Gatos mine’s substantial completion. If the Company’s 70% portion of the Dowa MPR Loan was not repaid in full on or before the due date, Dowa could elect to convert all or a portion of the principal amount into additional LGJV ownership at a favorable conversion rate.

In connection with entering into the WCF (as defined below), the Company contributed $18,200 to the LGJV in May 2019 to provide funding for partial repayment of principal and interest related to the Dowa MPR Loan. In late May 2019, the Dowa MPR Loan was fully extinguished with a cash payment of $18,200 and the conversion of the remaining $50,737 of principal and interest. The conversion of the remaining principal and interest increased Dowa’s ownership in the LGJV entities by 18.5% to 48.5%. On March 11, 2021, the Company repurchased the 18.5% interest from Dowa, for a total consideration of $71,550, increasing the Company’s ownership in the LGJV to 70.0%. These transactions resulted in a $47,400 higher basis than the underlying net assets of the LGJV Entities. This basis difference is being amortized as the LGJV Entities’ proven and probable reserves are processed.

On May 30, 2019, the LGJV entered into a working capital facility agreement (the “WCF”) with Dowa whereby the LGJV could borrow up to $60,000 to fund the working capital and sustaining capital requirements of the LGD. Interest on this loan accrued daily at LIBOR plus 3.0% per annum and all outstanding principal and interest was to mature on June 28, 2021. The Company was required to pay an arrangement fee on the borrowing, calculated as 15.0% per annum of 70.0% of the average daily principal amount outstanding under the WCF during such fiscal quarter. On March 11, 2021, the $60,000 outstanding under the WCF was extinguished using funds contributed to the LGJV. The Company’s pro-rata capital contribution to the LGJV was $42,000.

The Company guarantees the payment of all obligations, including accrued interest, under the LGJV equipment loan agreements. As of June 30, 2022, the LGJV had $2,611 outstanding under the LGJV equipment loan agreements, net of unamortized debt discount of $5, with maturity dates through August 2023.

On July 12, 2021, the Company entered into a Revolving Credit Facility (the “Credit Facility”). The Credit Facility provides for a revolving line of credit in a principal amount of $50,000 and has an accordion feature which at the time allowed for an increase in the total line of credit up to $100,000, subject to certain conditions. Borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest at a rate equal to either the LIBOR rate plus a margin ranging from 3.00% to 4.00% or the U.S. Base Rate plus a margin ranging from 2.00% to 3.00%, as selected by the Company, in each case, with such margin determined in accordance with the Company’s consolidated net leverage ratio as of the end of the applicable period. The Credit Facility contains affirmative and negative covenants that are customary for credit agreements of this nature. The affirmative covenants consist of a leverage ratio, a liquidity covenant and an interest coverage ratio. The negative covenants include, among other things, limitations on asset sales, mergers, acquisitions, indebtedness, liens, dividends and distributions, investments and transactions with affiliates. Obligations under the Credit Facility may be accelerated upon the occurrence of certain customary events of default. The Company was in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Facility, as amended, as of June 30, 2022.

On July 19, 2021, the Company borrowed $13,000 under the Credit Facility at a rate of LIBOR plus 3%. Debt issuance costs of $442 were to be amortized through July 31, 2024, prior to the amended and restated Credit Facility (see terms below). The current balance outstanding on the Credit Facility is $9,000, following a $4,000 principal repayment in December 2022.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recognized interest expense of $123 and $226, respectively, with an effective interest rate of 3.5% and 3.8%, respectively, which has been recorded on the statements of operations under other income, and $37 and $74, respectively, for amortization of debt issuance costs. The Company paid interest of $125 and $227 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022.

On March 7, 2022, the Company amended the Credit Facility with the lender, Bank of Montreal (“BMO”), to address potential loan covenant deficiencies. The amendment included the following revisions:

● audited financial statements were to be provided prior to November 15, 2022;

● the credit limit was reduced to $30,000, until the Company delivered a new LOM CLG financial model with updated mineral reserves;

During the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company recognized $765 and $18,291 of income, respectively, and during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company recognized $25,379 and $20,992 of income, respectively, on its investment in the LGJV Entities, representing its ownership share of the LGJV Entities’ results. The equity income or loss in affiliate includes amortization of the carrying value of the investment in excess of the underlying net assets of the LGJV Entities. This basis difference is being amortized as the LGJV Entities’ proven and probable reserves are processed.

The Company provided an updated technical report compliant with Regulation S-K subpart 1300 (the “Los Gatos Technical Report”) dated November 10, 2022. The Los Gatos Technical Report indicated a significant decrease in the mineral reserve and mineral resource from the previously issued technical report in 2020. The Company considered this reduction in the mineral reserve

and mineral resources as an indicator of a possible other-than-temporary impairment and as a result compared the carrying value of the LGJV on December 31, 2021 to the fair value of the LGJV.

The fair value of the LGJV was estimated based on the net present value of the expected cash flows to be generated by the LGJV on 70% basis. The discount rate used was 5.00%. The fair value of the investment in the LGJV was estimated to be $355,310 and the carrying value at December 31, 2021 was $406,874. Since the carrying value exceeded the fair value, an impairment charge of $51,564 was recorded during the fourth quarter of 2021. See Note 8 - Fair Value Measurements for additional detail of the assumptions used in the determination of the fair value of the long-lived assets tested for impairment.

For the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company contributed $260,039 to the LGJV to repurchase 18.5% of the ownership of the LGJV, to retire the WCF and the Term Loan and in support of exploration activities.

On March 17, 2022, we entered into a definitive agreement with Dowa to build and operate a leaching plant to reduce fluorine levels in zinc concentrates produced at CLG at an expected construction cost of $6,000. As part of the agreement, the initial payment of the $20,000 due to Dowa under the partner’s priority distribution agreement was reduced to $10,300. The reduced priority dividend amount reflects a portion of both the construction and future estimated operating costs of the leaching plant and is dependent on the successful construction and operation of the leaching plant. Should the leaching plant construction not be completed, or the leaching plant not operate according to certain parameters during the first five years, portions of the $9,700 reduction could be reinstated.

In April 2022, the LGJV paid its first dividend of $20,000 to its partners. The Company’s share of the first dividend was $14,000, before withholding taxes of $700. A payment of $7,365 was subsequently made to Dowa to cover the full amount of the reduced initial priority distribution due, for a net dividend received of $5,935.

The LGJV Entities combined balance sheets as of June 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021, and the combined statements of income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, are as follows:
