The immediate parent of the consolidated group is MAG Silver Corp. (incorporated in British Columbia, Canada). The Company’s principal asset is a 44% interest in the Juanicipio Project (Note 6 “Investment in Juanicipio”) located in the state of Zacatecas, Mexico, which has completed construction and has started commissioning of a 4,000 tonnes per day processing plant. Juanicipio commenced concentrate production and shipped its first commercial lead and zinc concentrates in late March 2023.

2. MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION
| (a) | Statement of compliance |
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements (“Interim Financial Statements”) are prepared under International Accounting Standards 34 Interim Financial Reporting (“IAS 34”) in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IFRS”). They do not include all of the information required for full annual IFRS financial statements and therefore should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022.
The accounting policies applied in the preparation of the Interim Financial Statements are consistent with those applied and disclosed in the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022.
MAG SILVER CORP.
Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements
For the three months ended March 31, 2023
(Expressed in thousands of US dollars unless otherwise stated - Unaudited)
These Interim Financial Statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis except for the revaluation of certain financial instruments, which are stated at their fair value.
These Interim consolidated financial statements were authorized for issuance by the Board of Directors of the Company on May 8, 2023.
| (b) | Significant accounting judgments and estimates |
The Company and Juanicipio make certain significant judgments and estimates in the process of applying the Company’s accounting policies. Management believes the judgments and estimates used in these condensed interim consolidated financial statements are reasonable; however, actual results could differ from those estimates and could impact future results of operations and cash flows. The areas involving significant judgments and estimates have been set out in Note 5 of the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022.
3. ACQUISITION OF GATLING EXPLORATION INC.
On March 11, 2022, the Company entered into a Definitive Arrangement Agreement with Gatling Exploration Inc. (“Gatling”) to acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Gatling with the issuance of common shares of the Company and the advancement of a Canadian dollar (“C$”) $3 million convertible note receivable. On May 20, 2022, the Company completed the acquisition of Gatling by way of a court-approved plan of arrangement under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) (the “Transaction”), pursuant to which Gatling became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and the Company thereby acquired a 100% interest in the Larder Project (the “Larder Project”). Under the terms of the Transaction, each former Gatling shareholder received 0.0170627 of a common share of the Company in exchange for each share of Gatling held immediately prior to the Transaction. Holders of options and warrants to acquire common shares of Gatling received replacement options and warrants, respectively, entitling the holders thereof to acquire common shares of the Company, based on, and subject to, the terms of such options and warrants of Gatling, as adjusted by the plan of arrangement.
MAG issued a total of 774,643 common shares to the shareholders of Gatling in connection with the Transaction. The Company also issued 43,675 replacement stock options and 53,508 replacement warrants (Note 9). A portion of the liabilities of Gatling related to change of control payments to Gatling executive management was settled by the issuance of 63,492 common shares of the Company.
The Company has determined that the Transaction did not meet the definition of business combination under IFRS 3, Business Combinations and accordingly, has been accounted for as an asset acquisition.
The purchase price allocation requires management to estimate the relative fair value of identifiable assets acquired including intangible assets and liabilities assumed.

Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements
For the three months ended March 31, 2023
(Expressed in thousands of US dollars unless otherwise stated - Unaudited)
Expenditures on mineral interests, plant and equipment capitalized directly by Juanicipio for the three months ended March 31, 2023 amounted to $20,288 (year ended December 31, 2022: $160,112). Depreciation on mining equipment, infrastructure and mineral assets, excluding the plant, has been recognised on a Units of Production (“UOP”) basis for the three months ended March 31, 2023. As the plant has not reached commercial production as at March 31, 2023, plant depreciation on a UOP basis has not commenced.
7. | EXPLORATION AND EVALUATION ASSETS |
| | |
| (a) | In 2018, the Company entered into an option agreement with a private group, whereby the Company has the right to earn 100% ownership interest in a company which owns the Deer Trail project in Utah. The Company paid $150 upon signing the agreement, $150 in each of 2020 and 2021, and $200 in December 2022. To earn 100% interest in the property, the Company must make remaining cash payments totaling $1,350 over the next 6 years, and fund a cumulative of $30,000 of eligible exploration expenditures by 2028 (as of March 31, 2023, the Company has incurred $21,040 of eligible exploration expenditures on the property). As at March 31, 2023, the Company has also bonded and recorded a $409 reclamation liability for the project. Other than the reclamation liability, the balance of cash payments and exploration commitments are optional at the Company’s discretion. Upon the Company’s 100% earn-in, the vendors will retain a 2% net smelter returns (“NSR”) royalty. |
| (b) | During the year ended December 31, 2022, through the acquisition of Gatling the Company acquired 100% of the Larder Project in Ontario (Note 3). As at March 31, 2023, the Company incurred $3,709 spend after acquisition costs, of which $1,754 were drilling costs. |
| (c) | In 2017, the Company entered into an option earn-in agreement with a private group whereby the Company could earn up to a 100% interest in a land claim package in the Black Hills of South Dakota. Although the geological prospect of the property remained encouraging, growing negative sentiment towards resource extraction in the area, combined with a slow consultation process resulted in significant challenges being encountered in permitting the property for exploration drilling. The Company provided formal notice that it would not be making the final $150 option payment in May 2022 and concurrently wrote-down the property’s full carrying amount of $10,471 during the year ended December 31, 2022. |

| (c) | Restricted and performance share units |
On June 18, 2020, the Shareholders re-approved a share unit plan (the “Share Unit Plan”) for the benefit of the Company’s officers, employees and consultants. The Share Unit Plan provides for the issuance of common shares from treasury, in the form of Restricted Share Units (“RSUs”) and Performance Share Units (“PSUs”). The maximum number of common shares that may be issuable under the Share Unit Plan is set at 1.5% of the number of issued and outstanding common shares on a non-diluted basis, provided that the number of common shares issued or issuable under the combined Share Unit Plan and Stock Option Plan (Note 9(b)) shall not exceed 5% of the issued and outstanding common shares on a non-diluted basis. RSUs and PSUs granted under the Share Unit Plan have a term of 5 years unless otherwise specified by the Board, and each unit entitles the participant to receive one common share of the Company subject to vesting criteria, and in the case of PSUs, performance criteria which may also impact the number of PSUs to vest between 0-200%. PSUs for which the performance targets are not achieved during the performance period are automatically forfeited and cancelled.
During the three months ended March 31, 2023, 54,022 RSUs were granted (March 31, 2022: nil) under the Company’s Share Unit Plan with 17,999 vesting in 12 months, 18,009 vesting in 24 months and another 18,014 vesting in 36 months. The RSUs had a weighted average grant date fair value of $12.14 per RSU (March 31, 2022: nil) as determined using the fair market value of the common shares on the date of grant.
During the three months ended March 31, 2023, 152,055 PSUs were granted (March 31, 2022: nil) under the Company’s Share Unit Plan with a five-year term. Of the grant, 114,042 PSUs vest upon the achievement of specified performance targets over a three-year performance period. The remainder of the grant, 38,013 PSUs are subject to a market share price performance factor measured over a three-year performance period, resulting in a PSU payout range from 0% (0 PSUs) to 200% (76,026 PSUs). The PSUs had a weighted average grant date fair value of $12.14 per PSU.
The three-year performance period for the February 2020 PSU grant ended on February 2023 and resulted in a PSU vesting of 86.3% of target or 72,437 PSUs. Consequently, 11,562 PSUs did not vest and were cancelled.
As at March 31, 2023, there were 371,807 PSUs and 155,081 RSUs issued and outstanding (March 31, 2022: 240,765 and 24,109 respectively) under the Share Unit Plan, of which 81,152 PSUs and 27,373 RSUs had vested (March 31, 2022: 6,346 PSUs and 24,109 RSUs) and are convertible into common shares of the Company. Included in the PSUs at March 31, 2023 are 76,914 PSUs with vesting conditions subject to a market share price performance factor measured over a three-year period, resulting in a PSU target vesting range from 0-50% (19,450 PSUs) to 150-200% (134,377 PSUs).
During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company recognized a share-based payment expense of $149 (March 31, 2022: $201) relating to RSUs and PSUs of which $37 (March 31, 2022: nil) was capitalized to exploration and evaluation assets.

On June 18, 2020, the Shareholders re-approved a Deferred Share Unit Plan (the “DSU Plan”) for the benefit of the Company’s non-executive directors. The DSU Plan provides for the issuance of common shares from treasury, on conversion of Deferred Share Units (“DSUs”) granted. Directors may also elect to receive all or a portion of their annual retainer in the form of DSUs. DSUs may be settled in cash or in common shares issued from treasury, as determined by the Board at the time of the grant. The maximum number of common shares that may be issuable under the DSU Plan is set at 1.0% of the number of issued and outstanding common shares on a non-diluted basis.
During the three months ended March 31, 2023, 15,365 DSUs were granted under the plan and 1,646 DSUs were granted to directors who elected to receive a portion of their annual retainer in DSUs rather than in cash (March 31, 2022: nil and nil respectively). A DSU share-based payment expense of $215 was recorded in the three months ended March 31, 2023 (March 31, 2022: $47). Under the DSU plan, no common shares are to be issued, or cash payments made to, or in respect of a participant in the DSU Plan prior to such eligible participant’s termination date. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, no DSUs (March 31, 2022: 25,000) were converted and settled in common shares. As at March 31, 2023, there are 437,126 DSUs (March 31, 2022: 444,373) issued and outstanding under the DSU Plan, all of which have vested.
As at March 31, 2023, assuming 100% of the PSU’s vest, there are 2,186,369 common shares (December 31, 2022: 1,765,222) issuable under the combined share compensation arrangements referred to above (the Plan, the Share Unit Plan and the DSU Plan) representing 2.13% (December 31, 2022: 1.78%) of the issued and outstanding common shares on a non-diluted basis, and there are 3,984,787 (December 31, 2022: 4,172,186) share-based awards available for grant under these combined share compensation arrangements.
In 2022, the Company issued replacement warrants pursuant to the Gatling acquisition (Note 3), of which as at December 31, 2022 34,418 replacement warrants had expired unexercised. The following table summarizes the Gatling warrants that are outstanding and exercisable as at March 31, 2023.

| 10. | Flow-Through PRemium Liability |
As at March 31, 2023, the Company has a flow-through share premium liability of $2,859 (March 31, 2022: nil) in relation to the flow-through share financing completed on February 16, 2023 (Note 9(a) for full details of the financings). Flow-through shares are issued at a premium, and in the Company’s case, considering the separate offerings for flow-through shares and standard public offering for common shares both made on January 25, 2023, this premium has been calculated as the difference between the pricing of a flow-through share and that of a common share from the public offering made on the same date. Tax deductions generated by the eligible expenditures are passed through to the shareholders of the flow-through shares once the eligible expenditures are incurred and renounced. Below is a summary of the flow-through financing and the related flow-through share premium liability generated.

The Company’s objectives in managing its liquidity and capital are to safeguard the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide financial capacity to meet its strategic objectives. The capital structure of the Company consists of its equity (comprised of share capital, equity reserve, accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and deficit) and lease obligation, net of cash and investments in equity securities as follows:

The Company manages the capital structure and makes adjustments to it in light of changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may attempt to issue new shares, issue debt and/or acquire or dispose of assets.
In order to facilitate the management of its capital requirements, the Company prepares annual expenditure budgets that are updated as necessary depending on various factors, including successful capital deployment and general industry conditions. The annual budgets and any amendments thereto are approved by the Board of Directors. The Company currently does not pay out dividends.
The Company has working capital of $53,998 as at March 31, 2023. The Company may require additional capital in the future to meet its future project and other related expenditures (Notes 6, 7, and 16). Future liquidity may depend upon the Company’s ability to arrange debt or additional equity financings.
As at March 31, 2023, the Company does not have any long-term debt and is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements.
| 12. | Financial risk management |
The Company’s operations consist of the acquisition, exploration and development of mineral projects primarily in the Americas. The Company examines the various financial risks to which it is exposed and assesses the impact and likelihood of occurrence. These risks may include credit risk, liquidity risk, currency risk, interest rate risk and other price risks. Where material, these risks are reviewed and monitored by the Board of Directors.
The Company conducts the majority of its business through its equity interest in its associates, Juanicipio (Note 6). Juanicipio is exposed to commodity price risk, specifically to the prices of silver, gold, and to a lesser extent, lead and zinc. Currently, Juanicipio produces and sells concentrates containing these metals which are each subject to market price fluctuations which will affect its profitability and its ability to generate cash flow. Juanicipio does not hedge any of the commodities produced and does not have any such positions outstanding at March 31, 2023.

Counterparty credit risk is the risk that the financial benefits of contracts with a specific counterparty will be lost if a counterparty defaults on its obligations under the contract. This includes any cash amounts owed to the Company by those counterparties, less any amounts owed to the counterparty by the Company where a legal right of set-off exists and also includes the fair values of contracts with individual counterparties which are recorded in the financial statements.
Juanicipio, in which the Company has a 44% interest, has revenue from its underground mining operation as described in Note 6. Juanicipio sells and receives payment for its concentrates at market terms, under an offtake agreement with Met-Mex Peñoles, S.A. de C.V. (“Met-Mex”), a related party to Fresnillo. The Company believes Juanicipio is not exposed to significant trade credit risk.
In order to manage credit and liquidity risk, the Company’s policy is to invest only in highly rated investment grade instruments backed by Canadian commercial banks, and in the case of its Mexican and US operations, the Company maintains minimal cash in its US and Mexican subsidiaries, as generally cash is only sent to them to cover current planned expenditures.
| (iii) | Mexican value added tax |
As at March 31, 2023, the Company had a net receivable of $81 (Note 5) for value added tax. As at March 31, 2023, Juanicipio, in which the Company has a 44% interest, had a receivable of $16,881 from the Mexican government for value added tax (Note 6) (MAG’s attributable portion $7,428). Management expects the balances to be fully recoverable by both entities.
The Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk is the carrying value of its cash, accounts receivable and loan receivable from Juanicipio which is classified as an Investment in Juanicipio in the condensed interim consolidated statements of financial position, as follows:
| | | March 31, | | | | December 31, | |
| | | 2023 | | | | 2022 | |

The Company has a planning and budgeting process in place to help determine the funds required to support the Company's normal operating requirements, its exploration and development plans, and its various optional property and other commitments (Notes 6, 7 and 16). The annual budget is approved by the Board of Directors. The Company ensures that there are sufficient cash balances to meet its short-term business requirements.
The Company's overall liquidity risk has not changed significantly from the prior year. Future liquidity may depend upon the Company’s ability to arrange debt or additional equity financings.
The Company is exposed to the financial risks related to the fluctuation of foreign exchange rates, both in the Mexican peso and C$, relative to the US$. The Company does not use any derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates.
Exposure to currency risk
As at March 31, 2023, the Company is exposed to currency risk through the following assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the applicable entity:
| | | Mexican peso | | | | Canadian dollar | |
(in US$ equivalent) | | | $ | | | | $ | |
| | | | | | | | |
Cash | | | 3 | | | | 14,032 | |
Accounts receivable | | | 81 | | | | 455 | |
Investments | | | - | | | | 9 | |
Accounts payable | | | (42 | ) | | | (1,621 | ) |
Lease obligations | | | - | | | | (232 | ) |
Net assets exposure | | | 42 | | | | 12,643 | |
Mexican peso relative to the US$
Although the majority of operating expenses in Mexico are both determined and denominated in US$, an appreciation in the Mexican peso relative to the US$ will slightly increase the Company’s cost of operations in Mexico (reported in US$) related to those operating costs denominated and determined in Mexican pesos. Alternatively, a depreciation in the Mexican peso relative to the US$ will decrease the Company’s cost of operations in Mexico (reported in US$) related to those operating costs denominated and determined in Mexican pesos.
MAG SILVER CORP.
Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements
For the three months ended March 31, 2023
(Expressed in thousands of US dollars unless otherwise stated - Unaudited)
An appreciation/depreciation in the Mexican peso against the US$ will also result in a gain/loss before tax and deferred tax to the extent that the Company holds net monetary assets (liabilities) in pesos. Specifically, the Company's foreign currency exposure is comprised of peso denominated cash, prepaids and value added taxes receivable, net of trade and other payables. The carrying amount of the Company’s net peso denominated monetary assets at March 31, 2023 is 737 thousand pesos (March 31, 2022: 862 thousand pesos). A 10% appreciation or depreciation in the peso against the US$ would have an immaterial effect on the Company’s income (loss) before tax.
Mexican peso relative to the US$ - Investment in Juanicipio
The Company conducts the majority of its business through its equity interest in its associates (Note 6). The Company accounts for this investment using the equity method, and recognizes the Company's 44% share of earnings and losses of Juanicipio. Juanicipio also has a US$ functional currency, and is exposed to the same currency risks noted above for the Company.
An appreciation/depreciation in the Mexican peso against the US$ will also result in a gain/loss before tax and deferred taxes (Note 6) in Juanicipio to the extent that it holds net monetary assets (liabilities) in pesos, comprised of peso denominated cash, value added taxes receivable, net of trade and other payables. The carrying amount of Juanicipio’s net peso denominated monetary liabilities at March 31, 2023 is 69.1 million pesos (March 31, 2022: 16.8 million net peso). A 10% appreciation in the peso against the US$ would result in a loss before tax at March 31, 2023 of $424 (March 31, 2022: $93) in Juanicipio, of which the Company would record its 44% share being $187 loss from equity investment in Juanicipio (March 31, 2022: $41), while a 10% depreciation in the peso relative to the US$ would result in an equivalent gain.
C$ relative to the US$
The Company is exposed to gains and losses from fluctuations in the C$ relative to the US$.
As general and administrative overheads in Canada are predominantly denominated in C$, an appreciation in the C$ relative to the US$ will increase the Company’s overhead costs as reported in US$. Alternatively, a depreciation in the C$ relative to the US$ will decrease the Company’s overhead costs as reported in US$.
An appreciation/depreciation in the C$ against the US$ will result in a gain/loss to the extent that MAG, the parent entity and the Larder Project holds net monetary assets (liabilities) in C$. The carrying amount of the Company’s net Canadian denominated monetary assets at March 31, 2023 is C$17.1 million (March 31, 2022: C$3.2 million). A 10% appreciation or depreciation in the C$ against the US$ would have a $1,264 effect on the Company’s income (loss) before tax.

The Company’s interest revenue earned on cash is exposed to interest rate risk. A decrease in interest rates would result in lower relative interest income and an increase in interest rates would result in higher relative interest income.
| 13. | FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES |
The Company’s financial instruments include cash, accounts receivable, investments, trade and other payables and lease obligation. The carrying values of cash, accounts receivable, trade and other payables and lease obligation reported in the consolidated statement of financial position approximate their respective fair values due to the relatively short-term nature of these instruments.
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy establishes three levels to classify the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value as described below:
Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Observable inputs other than quoted prices in Level 1 such as quoted prices for similar assets or 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 Company’s financial assets or liabilities as measured in accordance with the fair value hierarchy described above are:
As at March 31, 2023 | | | Level 1 | | | | Level 2 | | | | Level 3 | | | | Total | |

Investments(1) | | | 11 | | | | - | | | | - | | | | 11 | |
(1) The fair value of equity securities quoted in active markets, is determined based on a market approach reflecting the closing price of each particular security as at the statement of financial position date. The closing price is a quoted market price obtained from the exchange that is the principal active market for the particular security, and therefore equity securities are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

The Company operates primarily in one operating segment, being the exploration and development of mineral properties in North America. The Company’s principal asset, its 44% ownership in the Juanicipio Project, is located in Mexico, and the Company also has other exploration properties in North America. The Company’s executive and head office is located in Canada.
| 15. | RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS |
The Company does not have offices or direct personnel in Mexico, but rather is party to a Field Services Agreement, whereby it has contracted administrative and exploration services in Mexico with Minera Cascabel, S.A. de C.V. (“Cascabel”) and IMDEX Inc. (“IMDEX”). Dr. Peter Megaw, the Company’s Chief Exploration Officer, is a principal of both IMDEX and Cascabel, and is remunerated by the Company through fees to IMDEX. In addition to corporate executive responsibilities with MAG, Dr. Megaw is responsible for the planning, execution and assessment of the Company’s exploration programs, and he and his team developed the geologic concepts and directed the acquisition and discovery of the Juanicipio property.

| (3) | The Company also has discretionary commitments for property option payments and exploration expenditures as outlined above in Note 7 Exploration and Evaluation Assets. There is no obligation to make any of those payments or to conduct any work on its optioned properties. As the Company advances them, it evaluates exploration results and determines at its own discretion which option payments to make and which additional exploration work to undertake in order to comply with the funding requirements. |
The concessions associated with the Larder Project are all in good standing with various underlying obligations or royalties ranging from nil-2% NSRs associated with various mineral claims, and various payments upon a production announcement.

The Company could be subject to various investigations, claims and legal and tax proceedings covering matters that arise in the ordinary course of business activities. Each of these matters would be subject to various uncertainties and it is possible that some matters may be resolved unfavourably to the Company. Certain conditions may exist as of the date of the financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company is not aware of any such claims or investigations, and as such has not recorded any related provisions and does not expect such matters to result in a material impact on the results of operations, cash flows and financial position.
