| Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements |
As at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 (unaudited with tabular amounts in millions of U.S. dollars and thousands of shares, options, and warrants except per share amounts, unless otherwise noted) |
These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements ("Interim Financial Statements") have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard ("IAS") 34 - Interim Financial Reporting as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and have been condensed with certain disclosures from the Company's audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023 (the "2023 Annual Financial Statements") omitted. Accordingly, these Interim Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the 2023 Annual Financial Statements.
As required by IFRS 3 Business Combinations, the prior year comparatives in these Interim Financial Statements have been recast for the Acquisition that completed on March 31, 2023 (Note 1). The finalization of the purchase price allocation for the Acquisition in the fourth quarter of 2023 resulted in measurement period adjustments to production costs, depreciation and amortization, and income tax expense retrospectively to the Acquisition Date for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023.
3. MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION, STANDARDS, AND JUDGMENTS a)Changes in accounting policies
The accounting policies applied in the preparation of these Interim Financial Statements are consistent with those applied and disclosed in the 2023 Annual Financial Statements with the exception of the mandatory adoption of certain amendments noted below:
Classification of Liabilities as Current and Non-Current (Amendments to IAS 1)
The amendments to IAS 1, clarify the presentation of liabilities. The classification of liabilities as current or non-current is based on contractual rights that are in existence at the end of the reporting period and is not affected by expectations about whether an entity will exercise its right to defer settlement. A liability not due over the next twelve months is classified as non-current even if management intends or expects to settle the liability within twelve months. The amendment introduced a definition of 'settlement' to make clear that settlement refers to the transfer of cash, equity instruments, other assets, or services to the counterparty. The amendments also clarify how conditions with which an entity must comply within twelve months after the reporting period affect the classification of a liability. Covenants to be complied with after the reporting date do not affect the classification of debt as current or non-current at the reporting date. The amendments were implemented effective January 1, 2024. The implementation of this amendment did not have a material impact on the Company.
b)Future changes in accounting standards
IFRS 18 - Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements
In April 2024, the IASB released IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements. IFRS 18 replaces IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements while carrying forward many of the requirements in IAS 1. IFRS 18 introduces new requirements to: i) present specified categories and defined subtotals in the statement of earnings, ii) provide disclosures on management-defined performance measures ("MPMs") in the notes to the financial statements, iii) improve aggregation and disaggregation. Some of the requirements in IAS 1 are moved to IAS 8 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors and IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures. The IASB also made minor amendments to IAS 7 Statement of Cash Flows and IAS 33 Earnings per Share in connection with the new standard. IFRS 18 requires retrospective application with specific transition provisions. The Company is required to apply IFRS 18 for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027 with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of IFRS 18 on its financial statements.

e)Fair value information
i) Fair Value Measurement
The categories of the fair value hierarchy that reflect the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value are as follows:
Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and
Level 3: Inputs for the asset or liability based on unobservable market data.
The levels in the fair value hierarchy into which the Company’s financial assets and liabilities that are measured and recognized on the Interim Financial Statements at fair value on a recurring basis were categorized as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| At September 30, 2024 | At December 31, 2023 |
| Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 1 | Level 2 |
Assets and Liabilities: | | | | |
Investments | $ | 30.9 | | $ | — | | $ | 41.3 | | $ | — | |
Trade receivables from provisional concentrate sales | — | | 20.3 | | — | | 17.5 | |
Derivative assets(1) | — | | 3.4 | | — | | 6.9 | |
Derivative liabilities(1) | — | | (2.4) | | — | | (0.1) | |
| $ | 30.9 | | $ | 21.3 | | $ | 41.3 | | $ | 24.3 | |
(1)Included in Other assets and Other liabilities.
The methodology and assessment of inputs for determining the fair value of financial assets and liabilities as well as the levels of hierarchy for the Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value remains unchanged from that at December 31, 2023.

ii) Valuation Techniques for Level 2 Financial Assets and Liabilities
Derivative assets and liabilities
The Company’s derivative assets and liabilities were comprised of foreign currency and commodity contracts, which are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy and valued using observable market prices.
Receivables from provisional concentrate sales
A portion of the Company’s trade receivables arose from provisional concentrate sales and are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy and valued using quoted market prices based on the forward London Metal Exchange for copper, zinc and lead and the London Bullion Market Association P.M. fix for gold and silver.
f)Financial instruments and related risks
The Company has exposure to risks of varying degrees of significance which could affect its ability to achieve its strategic objectives for growth and shareholder returns. The principal financial risks to which the Company is exposed are:
i)Credit risk
ii)Liquidity risk
iii)Market risk
1. Currency risk
2. Interest rate risk
3. Price risk
The Company’s Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Company’s risk management framework and reviews the Company’s policies on an ongoing basis.
i) Credit Risk
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations and arises principally from the Company’s trade receivables. The carrying value of trade receivables represents the maximum credit exposure.
The Company has concentrate contracts to sell the zinc, lead, copper and silver concentrates produced by the Minera Florida, Huaron, San Vicente and La Colorada mines. Concentrate contracts are a common business practice in the mining industry. The terms of the concentrate contracts may require the Company to deliver concentrate that has a value greater than the payment received at the time of delivery, thereby introducing the Company to credit risk of the buyers of concentrates. Should any of these counterparties not honour purchase arrangements, or should any of them become insolvent, the Company may incur losses for products already shipped and be forced to sell its concentrates on the spot market or it may not have a market for its concentrates and therefore its future operating results may be materially adversely impacted. At September 30, 2024, the Company had receivable balances associated with buyers of its concentrates of $20.3 million (December 31, 2023 - $17.5 million). The vast majority of the Company’s concentrate is sold to a limited number of concentrate buyers.
Doré production from Jacobina, El Peñon, Minera Florida, Cerro Moro, La Colorada, Dolores, Shahuindo, La Arena, and Timmins is refined under long-term agreements with fixed refining terms at 7 separate refineries worldwide. The Company generally retains the risk and title to the precious metals throughout the process of refining and therefore is exposed to the risk that the refineries will not be able to perform in accordance with the refining contract and that the Company may not be able to fully recover precious metals in such circumstances. At September 30, 2024, the Company had approximately $65.2 million (December 31, 2023 - $10.8 million) of value contained in precious metal inventory at refineries. The Company maintains insurance coverage against the loss of precious metals at the Company’s mine sites,

| Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements |
As at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 (unaudited with tabular amounts in millions of U.S. dollars and thousands of shares, options, and warrants except per share amounts, unless otherwise noted) |
in-transit to refineries and while at the refineries. Risk is transferred to the refineries at various stages from mine site to refinery.
The Company maintains trading facilities with several banks and bullion dealers for the purposes of transacting the Company’s metal sales. None of these facilities are subject to margin arrangements. The Company’s trading activities can expose the Company to the credit risk of its counterparties to the extent that the trading positions have a positive mark-to-market value.
Refined silver and gold are sold in the spot market to various bullion traders and banks. Credit risk may arise from these activities if the Company is not paid for metal at the time it is delivered, as required by spot sale contracts, which is uncommon as payments are generally concurrent with the sale.
Supplier advances for products and services yet to be provided are a common practice in some jurisdictions in which we operate. These advances represent a credit risk to us to the extent that suppliers do not deliver products or perform services as expected. As at September 30, 2024, we had made $11.1 million of supplier advances (December 31, 2023 - $10.4 million), which are reflected in "Trade and other receivables” on the Interim Financial Statements.
Management constantly monitors and assesses the credit risk resulting from its refining arrangements, concentrate sales and commodity contracts with its refiners, supplier advances, trading counterparties and customers. Furthermore, management carefully considers credit risk when allocating prospective sales and refining business to counterparties. In making allocation decisions, management attempts to avoid unacceptable concentration of credit risk to any single counterparty.
The Company invests its cash and cash equivalents, which also has credit risk, with the objective of maintaining safety of principal and providing adequate liquidity to meet all current payment obligations.
ii) Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that an entity will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they come due. The Company has in place a rigorous planning, budgeting and forecasting process to help determine the funds required to support the Company’s normal operating requirements on an ongoing basis, its growth plans and its dividend distributions. The Company ensures that sufficient committed loan facilities exist to meet its short-term business requirements, taking into account its anticipated cash flows from operations and its holdings of cash and cash equivalents.
As at September 30, 2024, the Company continues to maintain its ability to meet its financial obligations as they come due.
iii) Market Risk
1.Currency Risk
The Company reports its financial statements in U.S. dollars ("USD"); however, the Company operates in jurisdictions that utilize other currencies. As a consequence, the financial results of the Company’s operations as reported in USD are subject to changes in the value of the USD relative to local currencies. Since the Company’s sales are denominated in USD and a portion of the Company’s operating costs and capital spending are in local currencies, the Company is negatively impacted by strengthening local currencies relative to the USD and positively impacted by the inverse.

As at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 (unaudited with tabular amounts in millions of U.S. dollars and thousands of shares, options, and warrants except per share amounts, unless otherwise noted) |
At September 30, 2024, the Company had outstanding positions on its foreign currency exposure of Mexican peso ("MXN"), Peruvian sol ("PEN"), Canadian dollar ("CAD"), Chilean peso ("CLP") and Brazilian real ("BRL") purchases. The Company recorded the following derivative gains and losses on currencies for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Three months ended September 30, | Nine months ended September 30, |
| 2024 | 2023 | 2024 | 2023 |
Mexican peso (losses) gains | $ | (1.0) | | $ | 0.1 | | $ | (1.4) | | $ | 2.4 | |
Peruvian sol gains (losses) | 0.8 | | (0.5) | | 0.4 | | 1.5 | |
Canadian dollar gains (losses) | 0.6 | | (1.2) | | (1.4) | | 1.0 | |
Chilean peso gains (losses) | 2.9 | | (2.0) | | (0.8) | | (4.8) | |
Brazilian real gains (losses) | 1.6 | | (0.6) | | (3.2) | | 0.3 | |
| $ | 4.9 | | $ | (4.2) | | $ | (6.4) | | $ | 0.4 | |
2.Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair values and future cash flows of the Company will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The average interest rate earned by the Company during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 on its cash and investments was 3.0% and 3.4% (2023 - 3.8% and 3.0%).
At September 30, 2024, the Company has $nil drawn under its $750.0 million Sustainability-Linked Credit Facility (“SL-Credit Facility”), with a maturity date of November 24, 2028 (Note 14).
The Company has two senior notes (see Note 14): senior notes with a fixed 4.625% coupon and maturing in December 2027; and senior notes with a fixed 2.63% coupon and maturing in August 2031 (collectively "Senior Notes"). As the Senior Notes bear interest at fixed rates, they are not subject to significant interest rate risk.
3.Price Risk
Metal price risk is the risk that changes in metal prices will affect the Company’s revenue or the value of its related financial instruments. The Company derives its revenue from the sale of silver, gold, lead, copper, and zinc. The Company’s sales are directly dependent on metal prices that have shown significant volatility and are beyond the Company’s control. Consistent with the Company’s mission to provide equity investors with exposure to changes in precious metal prices, the Company’s current policy is to not hedge the price of precious metals.
The Company mitigates the price risk associated with its base metal production by committing some of its forecasted base metal production from time to time under forward sales and option contracts. The Board of Directors continually assesses the Company’s strategy towards its base metal exposure, depending on market conditions.
The Company did not have any base metal or diesel contracts outstanding during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023.

These differences result from the items shown on the following table, which result in effective tax rates that vary considerably from the comparable period. The main factors that impacted the effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and the comparable period for 2023 were changes in the recognition of certain deferred tax assets, the impact of inflation on calculations of tax expense, foreign exchange rate fluctuations, mining taxes paid, and withholding taxes remitted on payments from foreign subsidiaries. The Company expects that these and other factors will continue to cause fluctuations in effective tax rates in the future.
In October 2024, the Company reached a conclusive agreement with the Mexican tax authorities (the “SAT”) to resolve specific disputed items related to income tax filings for the years 2016 through 2022 which were identified upon completion of certain SAT audits (the “Settlement”). As a result, $45.9 million, including $16.3 million in interest charges, was paid to the SAT in October 2024. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company recorded a $40.5 million income tax expense, net of a $5.4 million deferred income tax recovery relating to certain deductible items. The Company did not incur any penalties in connection with the Settlement.
