Company Overview
Santacruz was incorporated pursuant to the Business Corporations Act of British Columbia on January 24, 2011. The Company’s registered office is located at 1111 West Hastings Street, 15th Floor, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada V6E 2J3. The Company is listed for trading on the TSX Venture Exchange (‘‘TSX-V’’) under the symbol “SCZ” and the Nasdaq Capital Market (“NASDAQ”) under the symbol “SCZM”.
The Company is engaged in the operation, acquisition, exploration and development of mineral properties in Latin America, with a primary focus on silver and zinc, but also produces lead and copper. As at June 30, 2026, the Company had acquired ownership including mining concession rights to the following mineral properties:
Bolivia:
| ● | Sinchi Wayra (“Sinchi Wayra”), which consists of the following mineral properties and businesses located in Bolivia: |
| ○ | the Caballo Blanco Group which includes the Tres Amigos and Colquechaquita mines (the “Caballo Blanco Group” or “Caballo Blanco”) and the Don Diego processing plant (the “Don Diego Processing Plant” or “Don Diego”), which processes production from the Caballo Blanco Group as well as toll milling from the San Lucas feed sourcing business; | |
| ○ | the San Lucas Group which includes the San Lucas feed sourcing and trading business and the Reserva mine (the “San Lucas Group” or “San Lucas”); and | |
| ○ | the Soracaya exploration project (the “Soracaya Project” or “Soracaya”). |
| ● | Illapa (“Illapa”), with its operations held under a net operating cash flow interest agreement with Corporación Minera de Bolivia (“COMIBOL”) a Bolivian state-owned entity comprising: |
| ○ | the Bolivar mine (the “Bolivar Mine” or “Bolivar”) and process plant complex; and | |
| ○ | the Porco mine (the “Porco Mine” or “Porco”) and process plant complex. |
Mexico:
| ○ | The Zimapan mine (the “Zimapan Mine” or “Zimapan”) and processing plant located in Hidalgo, Mexico. |
Management has assessed the nature of its interest in the Illapa business and determined it to be a joint operation. The Company records its 45% interest in the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of the Illapa business in its consolidated financial statements. The Company is solely responsible for certain specific transactions made by the Illapa business, and for these transactions, the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses are recognized at 100% in the Company’s Financial Statements and result in balances payable to or owed from COMIBOL for its share of the joint operation. The Company reports its segment information on a 100% basis with respect to Bolivar and Porco together with an elimination column representing COMIBOL’s 55% interest (refer to Note 22 of the condensed interim consolidated financial statements).
In this MD&A, The Company reports 100% of production and sales from the Bolivar and Porco operations. Under the Association Agreement, Illapa S.A. is the designated operator and holds exclusive, comprehensive responsibility for all technical, financial, labor, legal, and commercial aspects of the operations. The Agreement grants Illapa full control over the mining production chain, including the exclusive right to commercialize concentrates in both domestic and international markets and to manage all related commercial processes.
COMIBOL’s entitlement under the Agreement is not a direct share of production, but rather a 55% participation in net cash flow. Accordingly, management believes that reporting production on a 100% gross basis appropriately reflects the operational substance of the arrangement, while COMIBOL’s interest is more accurately represented as an economic participation in net cash flow rather than a direct operational interest in the underlying production.
Since the Company is the operator of the Bolivar and Porco mines, management evaluates the performance of each operation by reviewing production on a 100% basis. Since the information of 100% production results is used to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance, this MD&A is prepared under the same basis.

Company Overview (continued)
In this MD&A, operational information for Bolivar and Porco is presented at 100%. Readers of this MD&A are cautioned that although in the operating section of this MD&A the Company reports 100% of the production and sales information, the Company records 45% of the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses in its consolidated financial statements. In contrast to the operational information, all financial information presented in this MD&A is reported showing 45% of the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses which coincides with the information presented in the condensed interim consolidated financial statements.
Update to non-GAAP performance measures and silver/zinc equivalent ounces metrics
Commencing in Q1 2026 the Company updated its non-GAAP performances measures to provide management and readers with useful information to evaluate the performance of the Company. Refer to the Non-GAAP measures section of this MD&A for a detailed explanation of the metrics and methodology used to determine them. All of the changes made have been applied retrospectively for the comparative periods. The following section provides a summary of the changes made:
Segregation of mining operations & ore processing: Operational and cost metrics are now presented as either Mining operations or Ore processing operations because the underlying business processes and profitability drivers each type of operation are fundamentally different. Our mining operations consist of Bolivar, Porco, Caballo Blanco and the Zimapan mines. Mining operations include the production metrics, revenues and costs from extracting ore from our mineral properties which is then processed and sold in concentrate form. Ore processing operations consist of the San Lucas feed sourcing business and includes the production metrics, revenue and costs from purchasing ore from third-party miners which is then processed and sold in concentrate form. Mining operations generate high margins because the input for the final product, metal concentrates, is from ore that is extracted from the Company’s mine properties that it owns. Ore processing generates significantly lower margins because the ore is purchased from third-party miners and the amount paid for the purchased ore is based upon the ore’s metal content and prevailing metal prices at the time of purchase.
Co-product costing methodology: The Company will no longer focus on costs per silver equivalent ounces sold and will now provide costs per actual silver ounce and zinc tonne sold in the period using a co-product cost methodology which allocates costs between each metal. The Company’s primary payable metals are silver and zinc, the revenue generated by each metal varies depending on prevailing metal prices but because each metal generates greater than 30% of the total revenues, the Company has concluded that reporting costs as co-products by silver ounce sold and zinc tonne sold is the most appropriate way to assess the performance of its operations. The total tonnes of ore milled in the period generates silver and zinc payable metals for sale, the ratio of payable silver and zinc produced from each tonne milled is used to allocate each period’s production costs between silver ounces sold and zinc tonnes sold, which will generate the following metrics: cash cost per silver ounce and zinc tonne sold, all-in sustaining cost per silver ounce and zinc tonne sold and will also provide an average realized price per silver ounce and zinc tonne sold.
By-product credits from secondary metal sales: The Company’s operations are poly-metallic whereby each tonne of ore milled generates primarily payable ounces of silver and tonnes of zinc but also generates payable tonnes of lead and copper. The combined revenues of lead and copper are incidental to our primary metal production of silver and zinc because they generate less than 10% of total revenues. Lead and copper concentrate is produced primarily to obtain the silver contained within so the Company has adopted the practice of calculating the net cost of producing an ounce of silver, after deducting revenues gained from incidental by-product production of lead and copper.

Company Overview (continued)
Silver equivalent ounces and zinc equivalent tonnes: The Company has modified its production disclosures to include zinc equivalent tonnes produced and has updated the method of calculating silver equivalent ounces produced. Previously the Company used budgeted metal prices which were updated annually to convert metal sales into silver equivalents, the new methodology uses the period’s average actual metal prices to determine the conversion factor. The Company considers silver equivalent (“AgEq”) ounces and zinc equivalent (“ZnEq”) tonnes to be useful production metrics for evaluating its multi-metal production profile but they should be considered only supplemental to the actual production volumes of silver and zinc produced and sold. The Company will continue to present the silver equivalent ounces produced and zinc equivalent ounces produced for the combined mining and ore processing operations, but will no longer report the figure for each operation. The Company will no longer report its cash cost and all-in sustaining cost per silver equivalent ounce sold to focus on the more relevant metrics of cash cost and all-in sustaining cost per silver ounce and zinc tonne sold instead.
Average realized price per silver ounce and zinc tonne sold: Revenues are presented as the sum of invoiced revenues related to delivered shipments of zinc, lead and copper concentrates, after having deducted treatment, smelting and refining charges made by the customer. The average realized price per silver ounce and zinc tonne sold is an analysis of the gross revenues prior to the charges made by the customer which is then divided by silver ounces and zinc tonnes sold. In prior periods the Company added back only treatment, smelting and refining charges. Commencing Q2 2026, the Company modified its methodology to provide readers with a more comparable figure against the actual market prices of the metal and to be consistent with peers by also adding back metallurgical deductions to determine the average realized price per silver ounce and zinc tonne sold. Prior periods have been restated with the new calculation methodology.
Realized mining margin and realized ore processing margin: Management has created two new non-GAAP measures: the realized mining margin and realized ore processing margin. Management believes the margins are an effective way to evaluate the profitability of the Company’s operations. The margin is calculated by subtracting the all-in sustaining cost (“AISC”) per silver ounce or zinc tonne sold from the average realized price per silver ounce or zinc tonne sold.
As there are no standardized methods of calculating non-GAAP measures, the Company’s methods may differ from those used by others and, accordingly, the Company’s use of these measures may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures used by others. Accordingly, these non-GAAP measures are intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. Refer to the Non-GAAP Measures section in this MD&A for a detailed explanation of the metrics, the methodology used and a reconciliation of these measures to our revenues and operating expenses, as reported in our condensed interim consolidated financial statements which are prepared under IFRS. All of the changes made to the non-GAAP measures have been applied retrospectively to comparative periods.

Notes:
(1) Mining operations includes only production from Bolivar, Porco, Caballo Blanco and Zimapan. Ore processing operations includes only production from San Lucas ore processing business. Readers are cautioned that Bolivar and Porco production figures are presented at 100% however the Company records only its 45% interest in the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses of the Illapa business in its consolidated financial statements. The Company reports its segment information on a 100% basis with respect to Bolivar and Porco together with an elimination column representing COMIBOL’s 55% interest (refer to segment information note of the condensed interim consolidated financial statements).
(2) Silver equivalent ounces and zinc equivalent tonnes produced have been calculated using the period’s average metal prices quoted on the London Metal Exchange. The silver and zinc equivalent production is calculated by dividing each metal’s price by the price of Silver or Zinc to arrive at their equivalent. Refer to the section titled “Non-GAAP Measures” for further information.
(3) Silver ounces sold and zinc tonnes sold may be lower or higher than the volumes produced in the period due to two effects: (i) timing - concentrates produced in a quarter may be shipped and invoiced in a subsequent period or have been produced in a prior period; and (ii) commercial terms - payable ounces under offtake agreements are lower than produced ounces due to standard treatment and quality deductions applied by the customer.
(4) The Company reports non-GAAP measures, which include: cash cost of production per tonne milled, cash cost per silver ounce and zinc tonne sold, average realized price per silver ounce and zinc tonne sold, all-in sustaining cost per silver ounce, zinc tonne sold, realized mining margin per silver ounce or zinc tonne sold and realized ore processing margin per silver ounce or zinc tonne sold. These measures are widely used in the mining industry as a benchmark for performance, but do not have a standardized meaning and may differ from methods used by other companies even though the metrics have the same or similar names. Refer to the section titled “Non-GAAP Measures” in this MD&A.

Notes:
(1) On December 10, 2025 the Company consolidated its issued and outstanding common shares on the basis of one post-consolidated common share for every four pre-consolidated common shares. The number of issued and outstanding shares and any per share amounts have been retrospectively restated.
(2) The Company reports non-GAAP measures, which includes Adjusted EBITDA, these measures are widely used in the mining industry as a benchmark for performance, but do not have a standardized meaning and may differ from methods used by other companies even though the metrics have the same or similar names. Refer to the section titled “Non-GAAP Measures” in the MD&A.
The net income for the three months ended June 30, 2026 (2026 Q2) was impacted by several large non-recurring tax events and a non-cash loss on the revaluation of consideration payable. Refer to the section titled “Overview of Financial Results” on page 26 and 27 of this MD&A for further details.

Management Business Overview and Outlook
2026 Bolivian Operating Priorities:
The Company’s Bolivian operations will remain focused on operational stability, cost discipline and plant performance in 2026. At Bolivar, management continues to advance the recovery of the areas affected by the localized flooding event encountered in 2025. Progress to date has been encouraging, and the affected areas are expected to recover gradually through 2026, with a return to full production anticipated during the year. At Porco, the Company’s smallest and predominantly zinc-oriented mining operation, the priority for 2026 will be to maintain operating stability and support revenue generation through continued focus on zinc production. At Caballo Blanco, the Company’s most efficient operation, management’s objective is to preserve, sustain and further deepen the operating efficiencies achieved to date. San Lucas will continue to play a strategic role in keeping plants utilized through third-party ore supply, supporting fixed-cost absorption, cost efficiency and meaningful margin contribution. Across the Bolivian platform, the Company’s strategy remains centered on optimizing mining costs, improving plant recoveries and maintaining the flexibility of its integrated operating base.
2026 Mexican Operating Priorities:
In Mexico, the Company’s principal operating focus in 2026 will be on improving metallurgical recoveries and concentrate quality at Zimapan. As the Company’s highest-volume operation, Zimapan has a significant impact on consolidated revenue and operating performance metrics, making recoveries and concentrate quality key priorities. Capital has already been invested toward these objectives, and management expects those initiatives to continue supporting operating improvement through 2026. The Company will also maintain its focus on cost discipline, process optimization and the continued strengthening of operating integration across the broader portfolio in support of more consistent production and financial performance.

Selected Quarterly Production Results (continued)
Santacruz’s Consolidated Operations Results
Q2 2026 vs Q1 2026
Consolidated silver production increased 17% to 1,573,100 ounces in Q2 2026 from 1,341,499 ounces in Q1 2026, with quarter-over-quarter increases at all five operations. The improvement was driven primarily by higher processed volumes, with consolidated tonnes milled increasing 7% to 521,956 tonnes, together with higher silver head grades at Bolivar and Porco and a marked improvement in silver recovery at Zimapan. Bolivar contributed the largest single increase as rehabilitation of the areas affected by the May 2025 flooding event continued to advance, while San Lucas processed 22% more ore than in the prior quarter. Consolidated zinc production increased 7% to 23,240 tonnes, driven principally by higher throughput, which more than offset lower zinc grades at Bolivar and Porco. Lead production increased 18% to 3,165 tonnes and copper production increased 9% to 337 tonnes.
Sales volumes did not rise to the same degree as production. During the quarter, road blockades in certain parts of Bolivia extended for approximately 53 days, disrupting supply chains across many sectors of the Bolivian economy. The blockades temporarily disrupted the export of the Company’s concentrates but did not affect production, which continued without interruption at all operations. Silver ounces sold from mining operations of 894,167 increased 3% from 871,752 in Q1 2026, lagging the 16% increase in mining silver production, and silver ounces sold at San Lucas declined 47% to 333,899, as concentrate produced during the blockade period could not be shipped and was accumulated as inventory; first-quarter San Lucas sales had also been elevated by the shipment of previously accumulated concentrate. Consolidated inventories increased to $71,876 at June 30, 2026 from $57,517 at December 31, 2025, driven by higher concentrate inventory ($36,445 compared with $30,172) and higher ore stockpiles ($19,493 compared with $11,983). The Company expects this inventory to be sold in the subsequent quarter as export logistics have normalized. Zinc tonnes sold increased quarter over quarter at both mining operations (14,419 tonnes, up 3%) and San Lucas (8,796 tonnes, up 19%).
The average realized price per silver ounce sold from mining operations decreased 10% to $72.17 from $80.61 in Q1 2026, in line with lower average silver prices during the quarter (the average LME silver price declined 13% to $73.44 per ounce). This negative impact on Q2 operations as compared to Q1 was largely offset by lower unit costs: cash cost per silver ounce sold decreased 15% to $15.54 from $18.34, and all-in sustaining cost per silver ounce sold decreased 24% to $21.87 from $28.90, leaving the realized mining margin per silver ounce sold broadly stable at $50.30 (Q1 2026 — $51.71). Cash cost of production per tonne milled was also stable at $86.83 (Q1 2026 — $87.19). For zinc, the average realized price per tonne sold of $3,302 was 1% higher, while all-in sustaining cost per zinc tonne sold decreased 13% to $2,219, and the realized mining margin per zinc tonne sold increased 48% to $1,083 from $731. At San Lucas, the realized ore processing margin per silver ounce sold more than doubled to $33.42 from $16.49, and the realized ore processing margin per zinc tonne sold increased 23% to $819. Consolidated revenues of $113,458 were 11% lower than the $127,529 recorded in Q1 2026, as the lower silver prices and the blockade-related reduction in silver ounces sold at San Lucas more than offset the higher zinc volumes sold; Adjusted EBITDA nonetheless increased 10% quarter over quarter to $46,663 on the stronger unit margins.
Q2 2026 vs Q2 2025
Compared with Q2 2025, consolidated silver production increased 11% and zinc production increased 10%, on 9% higher consolidated tonnes milled. Readers should note that Q2 2025 production was adversely affected by the May 2025 flooding event at Bolivar.
The average realized price per silver ounce sold from mining operations increased 118% to $72.17 from $33.13 in Q2 2025, and the average realized price per zinc tonne sold increased 12% to $3,302 from $2,938. Silver ounces sold from mining operations decreased 30% year over year, with the largest reductions at Bolivar (down 46%) and Caballo Blanco (down 48%), reflecting the blockade-related timing of concentrate exports, while Zimapan, tons sold were broadly in line with its production. Zinc tonnes sold increased 18% from mining operations and 35% at San Lucas. Unit costs increased against the prior-year quarter, cash cost per silver ounce sold of $15.54 (Q2 2025 — $13.17) and all-in sustaining cost per silver ounce sold of $21.87 (Q2 2025 — $17.50), with cash cost of production per tonne milled of $86.83 (Q2 2025 — $69.92). The substantially higher realized silver price more than offset the cost increases, and the realized mining margin per silver ounce sold expanded 222% to $50.30 from $15.63. For zinc, all-in sustaining cost per tonne sold increased 18% to $2,219 (Q2 2025 — $1,875), and the realized mining margin per zinc tonne sold was $1,083, compared with $1,063 in Q2 2025. The combination of substantially higher realized prices and higher zinc volumes sold more than offset the lower silver volumes, and consolidated revenues increased 55% year over year to $113,458, with gross profit increasing 102% to $51,139 and Adjusted EBITDA increasing 74% to $46,663.

Summary
The Bolivar Mine has been active for more than 200 years. The current mine complex consists of an underground mine, 1,100 t/d milling facility, tailings storage facility, maintenance workshop, shaft-winder, water treatment plants, supplies warehouse, main office, hospital, and camp.
The Bolivar mine operates in two main areas: the Central Zone, an extension of the original ore deposit that runs deeper, and the Rosario Zone, a parallel area with its own separate entrance.
Currently the plant processes about 21,000 tonnes of ore per month, and 840 meters of combined primary and secondary development each month. At the same time, ore from the San Lucas feed sourcing business is providing production flexibility and allowing the mill to operate efficiently.
The Bolivar mill has operated continuously since 1993, receiving feed from two main sources: the Bolivar Mine, which supplies approximately 70%, and toll feed sourced through the San Lucas feed sourcing business, contributing the remaining 30%. The mill processes each feed type separately, enabling precise analysis and reporting for each. Different reagent strategies are applied to each source due to the presence of pyrrhotite in the San Lucas feed, which is generally absent in the Bolivar mine feed.
Q2 2026 vs Q1 2026
Compared with Q1 2026, Bolivar’s silver production increased 32% to 343,522 ounces from 259,635 ounces. The increase was driven by an 11% increase in tonnes milled and a 17% higher silver head grade (165 g/t versus 141 g/t), together with a modest improvement in silver recovery, as rehabilitation of the areas affected by the May 2025 flooding event continued to advance. Zinc production of 3,684 tonnes was broadly unchanged quarter over quarter, as higher throughput was largely offset by an 8% lower zinc grade. Lead production increased 18% to 233 tonnes, supported by higher throughput and improved lead recovery.
Silver ounces sold increased 15% to 218,307 ounces, lagging the growth in production as the road blockades temporarily restricted concentrate exports, with the excess accumulated as inventory for sale in subsequent periods. The average realized price per silver ounce sold decreased 13% to $76.45 from $87.76, in line with lower average silver prices during the quarter, but this was more than offset by a 33% reduction in all-in sustaining cost per silver ounce sold to $25.81 from $38.79, reflecting the higher volumes sold and produced over which costs are absorbed. As a result, the realized mining margin per silver ounce sold improved 3% to $50.64 from $48.97. For zinc, the average realized price per tonne sold increased 6% to $3,530 and all-in sustaining cost per tonne sold decreased 12% to $2,521, more than doubling the realized mining margin per zinc tonne sold to $1,009 from $483, notwithstanding 32% lower zinc tonnes sold of 2,469 tonnes, which reflected shipment timing during the blockade period.
Q2 2026 vs Q2 2025
Compared with Q2 2025, Bolivar’s silver production increased 13% from 304,468 ounces and zinc production increased 14% from 3,225 tonnes, driven by a 32% increase in tonnes milled as mining areas continued to be restored. Head grades remained below the prior-year quarter (silver of 165 g/t versus 190 g/t; zinc of 5.55% versus 6.52%), reflecting the areas currently being mined as the operation advances through its recovery plan, with higher processed volumes more than offsetting the lower grades. Lead production increased 28% to 233 tonnes.
Silver ounces sold of 218,307 were 46% lower than the 406,070 ounces sold in Q2 2025 despite the higher production, reflecting the temporary disruption of concentrate exports caused by the road blockades. The average realized price per silver ounce sold increased 126% to $76.45 from $33.88, which more than offset a higher all-in sustaining cost per silver ounce sold of $25.81 (Q2 2025 — $14.57), itself a function of the lower volumes sold and the areas being mined during the recovery; the realized mining margin per silver ounce sold expanded 162% to $50.64 from $19.32. For zinc, the average realized price per tonne sold increased 11% to $3,530, while the realized mining margin per zinc tonne sold decreased to $1,009 from $1,746, as all-in sustaining cost per zinc tonne sold rose to $2,521 from $1,436 on 12% lower zinc tonnes sold.

Summary
The Porco Mine has been in operation for nearly 500 years. The complex consists of an underground mine, milling facility, maintenance workshop, tailing storage facility, water treatment plant, supplies warehouse, main office, two hospitals and Yancaviri Camp.
The milling facility processes approximately 17,000 tonnes of ore, and on average realizes 600 meters of total development per month. The mine is comprised of two production areas. Hundimiento uses long hole mechanized mining methods to exploit the deeper extension of the primary vein complex, and the Central zone which is conventionally mined using more selective shrinkage stoping.
The milling facility is sourced by the mine feed (approximately 60%), and the toll feed from the San Lucas feed sourcing business (40%).
Q2 2026 vs Q1 2026
Porco is a predominantly zinc-oriented underground operation, and its performance is best assessed on zinc output. Compared with Q1 2026, zinc production increased 5% to 2,974 tonnes, as a 15% increase in tonnes milled more than offset a 10% lower zinc grade, with zinc recovery remaining strong at 96%. Silver production increased 43% to 100,875 ounces from 70,708 ounces, driven by a 21% higher silver head grade and improved silver recovery, and lead production increased 19% to 136 tonnes.
Zinc tonnes sold of 2,894 were broadly unchanged quarter over quarter, while the average realized price per zinc tonne sold increased 14% to $3,457 from $3,042. All-in sustaining cost per zinc tonne sold increased 13% to $1,570, and the realized mining margin per zinc tonne sold improved 15% to $1,887 from $1,647. Silver ounces sold increased 26% to 83,629 ounces, and although the average realized price per silver ounce sold declined 9% to $76.79 in line with lower silver prices during the quarter, a 20% reduction in all-in sustaining cost per silver ounce sold to $43.11 lifted the realized mining margin per silver ounce sold 12% to $33.69 from $30.01.
Q2 2026 vs Q2 2025
Compared with Q2 2025, zinc production increased 7% from 2,786 tonnes on 6% higher tonnes milled and continued strong zinc recoveries. Silver production decreased 5% from 105,901 ounces, primarily reflecting an 8% lower silver head grade. This profile reflects mine sequencing deliberately focused on zinc-rich areas, rather than an operational shortfall, and is consistent with Porco’s role within the Company’s silver-zinc co-product portfolio.
Zinc tonnes sold increased 39% year over year to 2,894 tonnes, Porco’s zinc shipments were comparatively less affected by the blockade period, at an average realized price per tonne sold of $3,457, up 7% from $3,236. The realized mining margin per zinc tonne sold of $1,887 was 8% lower than the $2,060 recorded in Q2 2025, as all-in sustaining cost per zinc tonne sold increased 34% to $1,570 from $1,175. For silver, the average realized price per ounce sold increased 115% to $76.79 from $35.65, expanding the realized mining margin per silver ounce sold to $33.69 from $7.44 in Q2 2025, with silver ounces sold of 83,629 (down 20% from 104,099) reflecting the timing of concentrate exports during the blockade period.

Summary
Following a thorough examination of the Don Diego milling facility processing performance, Caballo Blanco Group made a strategic adjustment in Q3 to improve metal recovery and concentrate value. Previously, the milling facility handled ore from three mines: Colquechaquita, Tres Amigos, and Reserva. A recent evaluation revealed that processing a blend of ores exclusively from Colquechaquita and Tres Amigos at Don Diego significantly improved silver recovery in the lead concentrate. This enhancement adds greater value to the lead concentrate and generates additional revenue for the Company. The process modification is consistent with our goal of enhancing efficiencies by improving metal recoveries and concentrate value.
Ore from the Reserva mine will now be processed and blended with ore from the San Lucas ore sourcing business to improve overall operating efficiency. The initial results of this adjustment reveal significant gains in silver in lead concentrate recovery, prompting management to adopt this new processing approach as the standard going forward. This revised operational framework will help both Caballo Blanco and San Lucas achieve more consistent recovery performance and maximize the value of its mineral resources.
Q2 2026 vs Q1 2026
Compared with Q1 2026, Caballo Blanco’s silver production increased 6% to 326,215 ounces from 306,888 ounces, driven by a 5% higher silver head grade (183 g/t versus 175 g/t) on modestly higher throughput. Zinc production increased 4% to 4,126 tonnes, and lead production was unchanged at 765 tonnes. Recoveries remained stable across all metals, and the operation continued to perform as one of the Company’s most consistent contributors.
Silver ounces sold of 191,707 decreased 15% from 224,420 in Q1 2026, reflecting the blockade-related timing of concentrate exports rather than operating performance, with the excess production accumulated as inventory. The average realized price per silver ounce sold decreased 4% to $77.49 from $80.54, while all-in sustaining cost per silver ounce sold, the lowest in the Company’s portfolio, declined 11% to $18.13 from $20.44, leaving the realized mining margin per silver ounce sold essentially unchanged at $59.36 (Q1 2026 — $60.09). Zinc tonnes sold increased 18% to 4,252 tonnes at an average realized price per tonne sold of $3,442, up 8%, and the realized mining margin per zinc tonne sold improved 32% to $1,643 from $1,240 on both higher prices and lower unit costs.
Q2 2026 vs Q2 2025
Compared with Q2 2025, Caballo Blanco’s silver production increased 11% from 294,786 ounces, on 4% higher tonnes milled and a 9% higher silver head grade, while zinc production increased 4% from 3,974 tonnes. Lead production increased 29% from 595 tonnes, reflecting a 23% higher lead grade in the areas mined during the quarter. Grades and recoveries remained stable across periods, underscoring Caballo Blanco’s operating consistency.
Silver ounces sold of 191,707 were 48% lower than the 366,847 ounces sold in Q2 2025 despite the higher production, reflecting the temporary disruption of concentrate exports caused by the road blockades. The average realized price per silver ounce sold increased 128% to $77.49 from $33.94 and, notwithstanding a higher all-in sustaining cost per silver ounce sold of $18.13 (Q2 2025 — $11.12), the realized mining margin per silver ounce sold expanded 160% to $59.36 from $22.82, the highest in the portfolio. Zinc tonnes sold increased 46% year over year to 4,252 tonnes at an average realized price per tonne sold of $3,442 (up 9%), while the realized mining margin per zinc tonne sold of $1,643 compared with $2,124 in Q2 2025, reflecting a higher all-in sustaining cost per zinc tonne sold of $1,800 (Q2 2025 — $1,048).

Notes:
(1) Silver ounces sold and zinc tonnes sold may be lower or higher than the volumes produced in the period due to two effects: (i) timing - concentrates produced in a quarter may be shipped and invoiced in a subsequent period or have been produced in a prior period; and (ii) commercial terms - payable ounces under offtake agreements are lower than produced ounces due to standard treatment and quality deductions applied by the customer.
(2) The Company reports non-GAAP measures, which include: cash cost of production per tonne milled, cash cost per silver ounce and zinc tonne sold, average realized price per silver ounce and zinc tonne sold, all-in sustaining cost per silver ounce, zinc tonne sold, realized mining margin per silver ounce or zinc tonne sold and realized ore processing margin per silver ounce or zinc tonne sold. These measures are widely used in the mining industry as a benchmark for performance, but do not have a standardized meaning and may differ from methods used by other companies even though the metrics have the same or similar names.

Summary
The Zimapan operation produces feed from the Carrizal and Monte mines, which are connected by a 7.4-kilometre underground access and haulage tunnel which terminates at the San Francisco process plant. Mining methods used include long hole and cut and fill stoping. The plant processes about 72,000 tonnes per month and produces three concentrates using differential flotation. Tailings Storage Facility and other support facilities are located adjacent and downstream of the plant location.
Q2 2026 vs Q1 2026
Compared with Q1 2026, Zimapan’s silver production increased 8% to 391,121 ounces from 362,863 ounces despite broadly unchanged throughput and a slightly lower silver head grade, driven by a significant improvement in silver recovery to 72% from 65% following the resolution of the temporary constraints experienced in the first quarter, including limited ventilation in the higher-grade zones at Level 960 and repeated power interruptions caused by the local service provider’s maintenance of the power grid. Zinc production increased 18% to 4,764 tonnes, supported by a 9% higher zinc grade and improved zinc recovery, while lead production increased 15% to 1,159 tonnes and copper production increased 9% to 337 tonnes, with metal recoveries improving across all four payable metals.
Silver ounces sold of 400,524 were broadly in line with both production and the 391,654 ounces sold in Q1 2026. The average realized price per silver ounce sold decreased 13% to $66.32 from $76.60, in line with lower average silver prices during the quarter, but this was substantially offset by a 31% reduction in all-in sustaining cost per silver ounce sold to $15.01 from $21.88, driven by the improved metal recoveries, higher by-product copper credits and lower sustaining capital expenditures in the period; the realized mining margin per silver ounce sold was $51.32, compared with $54.72 in Q1 2026. Zinc tonnes sold increased 23% to 4,804 tonnes and, although the average realized price per zinc tonne sold decreased 14% to $2,969 from $3,466, all-in sustaining cost per zinc tonne sold decreased 22% to $2,623 on the higher volumes sold, and the realized mining margin per zinc tonne sold improved to $346 from $87 in Q1 2026.
Q2 2026 vs Q2 2025
Compared with Q2 2025, Zimapan’s silver production was broadly stable, decreasing 2% from 398,292 ounces, while zinc production increased 5% from 4,521 tonnes on a higher zinc grade. Lead production decreased 14% from 1,354 tonnes, primarily reflecting a 15% lower lead grade associated with mine sequencing, while copper production increased 47% from 229 tonnes on materially higher copper grades and recoveries. Zimapan remained an important contributor to consolidated output and continues to be managed with a focus on recoveries and concentrate quality.
Silver ounces sold of 400,524 were broadly unchanged from 405,967 in Q2 2025. The average realized price per silver ounce sold increased 114% to $66.32 from $31.00, while all-in sustaining cost per silver ounce sold decreased 27% to $15.01 from $20.55 and cash cost per silver ounce sold decreased 22% to $12.36 from $15.85, reflecting the recovery improvements and materially higher by-product copper credits from the 47% increase in copper production. As a result, the realized mining margin per silver ounce sold expanded to $51.32 from $10.45 in Q2 2025 — the largest year-over-year margin improvement in the portfolio. For zinc, tonnes sold increased 9% to 4,804 tonnes at an average realized price per tonne sold of $2,969, up 19% from $2,487, and with all-in sustaining cost per zinc tonne sold reduced 7% to $2,623, the realized mining margin per zinc tonne sold turned positive at $346, compared with negative $(324) in Q2 2025, marking a meaningful improvement in the operation’s zinc unit economics that management intends to sustain through its continued focus on recoveries and concentrate quality.

Summary
San Lucas is the Company’s ore sourcing and trading business in Bolivia and should be regarded as a strategic component of the broader Bolivian production portfolio. By procuring ore from third-party suppliers and processing it through the Company’s existing plants, San Lucas supports higher plant utilization, enhances fixed-cost absorption, and increases overall operating flexibility. Given its margin-based structure, purchase prices are aligned to contained metal value. San Lucas is best evaluated on the basis of margin generation and its contribution to overall operating efficiency, rather than on average feed grade alone.
Q2 2026 vs Q1 2026
Compared with Q1 2026, San Lucas processed 115,424 tonnes, a 22% increase, and produced 411,367 ounces of silver (up 20%), 7,692 tonnes of zinc (up 8%), and 872 tonnes of lead (up 45%). The increase was driven primarily by higher volumes of purchased ore delivered by third-party suppliers, with recoveries broadly stable to modestly improved. The higher volumes directly supported plant utilization and fixed-cost absorption across the Company’s Bolivian processing facilities, consistent with San Lucas’s strategic role within the portfolio.
San Lucas is best assessed on margin generation rather than production volume alone. The realized ore processing margin per silver ounce sold more than doubled to $33.42 from $16.49 in Q1 2026, as realized silver prices declined more slowly than the cost of purchased ore, which under the margin-based model is aligned to the contained metal value of the ore acquired at the time of purchase, and as unit costs benefited from the higher processed volumes. The realized ore processing margin per zinc tonne sold increased 23% to $819 from $667. Silver ounces sold of 333,899 were 47% lower than in Q1 2026; this movement reflects shipment timing rather than performance, as first-quarter sales of 634,875 ounces had been elevated by the shipment of previously accumulated concentrate while second-quarter shipments were constrained by the road blockades, with the resulting inventory expected to be sold as export logistics have normalized. Zinc tonnes sold increased 19% to 8,796 tonnes.
Q2 2026 vs Q2 2025
Compared with Q2 2025, San Lucas increased silver production by 29% from 319,634 ounces, zinc production by 16% from 6,643 tonnes, and lead production by 71% from 509 tonnes, on 22% higher processed tonnes. The year-over-year growth underscores the flexibility of the San Lucas model, which allows the Company to scale third-party feed sourcing in response to plant availability and market conditions.
The realized ore processing margin per silver ounce sold expanded to $33.42 from $4.83 in Q2 2025, as the average realized price per silver ounce sold increased 154% to $74.58 from $29.32, well ahead of the increase in all-in sustaining cost per silver ounce sold to $41.16 from $24.49, which principally reflects the higher metal-value-linked cost of purchased ore. The realized ore processing margin per zinc tonne sold was $819, compared with $1,539 in Q2 2025, as the increase in the average realized zinc price to $3,107 from $2,832 was outpaced by the higher purchased-ore cost per tonne. Zinc tonnes sold increased 35% year over year to 8,796 tonnes, while silver ounces sold of 333,899 were 9% lower, reflecting the blockade-related shipment timing. Revenues from ore processing increased 75% to $38,654 from $22,072, and gross profit from ore processing increased 68% to $13,804 from $8,205, reflecting both the stronger unit margins and the higher volumes.

Other Properties
The Soracaya Project is located in the province of Sud-Chicas, in the department of Potosí in Bolivia. The Project has UTM WGS-84 coordinates of 784,896E; 7,645,567N at an elevation of 4,421 meters above sea level (masl). Paved and gravel roads connect the Soracaya Project to the capital city La Paz (676 km), the town of Uyumi (132 km) and the San Vicente mine site (12 km). There are currently six mining concessions at Soracaya which cover 8,325 hectares and are fully owned by Sinchi Wayra, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary that was acquired in 2021 as part of the acquisition of its Bolivian assets.
The Soracaya site is typical for an exploration property with access and drill roads, limited infrastructure which includes offices, living quarters and related facilities, power generation and electrical distribution, water treatment, core logging and temporary warehousing facilities. In addition, an underground exploration drift and portal has been developed, surface exploration trenches have also been developed and remain open and accessible.
On October 4, 2024 the company published an NI 43-101 technical report of the property. The effective date of the resource estimate is January 1, 2024. Since the publication of the report, the Company has continued to perform exploration activities and is evaluating advancing the project into the development phase. The project is fully permitted for exploration and can currently extract 300 tonnes per month for exploration and metallurgical testing purposes. The Company has applied for an enhanced exploration and production permit which will allow for the extraction of 3,000 tonnes per month and expects to obtain approval before the end of 2026.
The mineral resources were estimated in conformity with CIM’s “Estimation of Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves Best Practices Guidelines” (December 2019) and are reported in accordance with NI 43-101 guidelines.
Mineral resources are classified under the inferred category according to CIM guidelines. The author evaluated the resource in order to ensure that it meets the condition of “reasonable prospects of eventual economic extraction” as suggested under NI 43-101. The criteria considered were confidence, continuity and economic cut-off in addition to considering constraining the resources within an underground mining volumes.
Using a cut-off grade of 10.0% ZnEq, the Soracaya Project resources are presented in the table below.
| Tonnes | ZnEq | Zn | Ag | Pb | Cu | NSR | ||||||
| 4,137,000 | 31.62 | 1.23 | 259.76 | 7.23 | 0.09 | 248.82 |
Notes:
The current Resource Estimate was prepared by Garth Kirkham, P.Geo., of Kirkham Geosystems Ltd.
| 1) | All mineral resources have been estimated in accordance with Canadian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy and Petroleum (“CIM”) definitions, as required under National Instrument 43-101 (“NI43-101”). | |
| 2) | The Mineral Resource Estimate was prepared using a 10% zinc equivalent cut-off grade. Cut-off grades were derived from $3.65/lb. copper, $21.00/oz silver, $1.15/lb. zinc and $1.00/lb. lead. This cut-off grade was based on current smelter agreements and total OPEX costs of $156.00/t based on 2023 actual costs derived from the Porco mine data, with process recoveries of 70.0% for copper, 80.0% for zinc, 70.0% for lead, and 85% for silver. All prices are stated in $USD. | |
| 3) | An Inferred Mineral Resource has a lower level of confidence than that applying to an Indicated Mineral Resource and must not be converted to a Mineral Reserve. It is reasonably expected that the majority of Inferred Mineral Resources could be upgraded to Indicated Mineral Resources with continued exploration. | |
| 4) | Mineral resources are not mineral reserves until they have demonstrated economic viability. Mineral resource estimates do not account for a resource’s mineability, selectivity, mining loss, or dilution. All figures are rounded to reflect the relative accuracy of the estimate and therefore numbers may not appear to add precisely. |
Qualified Person and Technical Disclosures
All scientific and technical disclosure contained in this MD&A was reviewed and approved by Garth Kirkham P.Geo. an independent consultant to the Company, who is a qualified person under NI 43-101 and has approved the scientific and technical information contained within this news release.
Production at the Zimapan Mine is not supported by a feasibility study on mineral reserves demonstrating economic or technical viability or any other independent economic study under NI 43-101. Accordingly, there is increased uncertainty and higher economic and technical risks of failure associated with production operations at the Zimapan Mine. Production and economic variables may vary considerably due to the absence of a complete and detailed site analysis according to and in accordance with NI 43- 101. Project failure may adversely impact the Company’s future profitability.

Notes:
(1) On December 10, 2025 the Company consolidated its issued and outstanding common shares on the basis of one post-consolidated common share for every four pre-consolidated common shares. The number of issued and outstanding shares and any per share amounts have been retrospectively restated.
Revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2026 was $113,458, an increase of $40,163 as compared to Q2 2025. The increase was driven by an increase in the average realized price of silver from $33.13 in Q2 2025 to $72.17 in Q2 2026. The increase caused by the higher silver price was partially offset by decreases in the quantity of silver ounces sold in Q2 2026, reflecting both the blockade-related export disruption in Q2 2026 and the lower production base at Bolivar during its recovery. Zinc tonnes sold increased by 18% and the average realized price per Zinc tonne increased from $2,938 to $3,276 per tonne.
Cost of sales for the quarter ended June 30, 2026 was $54,523, an increase of $11,955 compared to Q2 2025. The increase was mainly driven by San Lucas, which operates a margin-based sourcing model, as higher silver and zinc prices in the current quarter increased ore purchase costs. The increase was further impacted by the change in exchange rate in Bolivia between quarters, leading to greater costs when translating Boliviano denominated transactions to the US dollar. Increase by cost category was primarily attributed to ore purchase costs and mining and plant maintenance costs. The increase was offset by an update to the estimate of the future expenditures required for the restoration of mining properties which resulted in a decrease in the decommissioning and restoration provision. The decrease in future expenditures is primarily caused by significant changes to the Bolivian economic environment which includes the adopting of a floating exchange rate and a significant reduction in the projected inflation rate. The change in estimate reduced the carrying value of the decommissioning and restoration asset to zero and the remaining $6,505 was recorded as a reduction to cost of sales.

Overview of Financial Results (continued)
Depreciation, depletion and amortization for the quarter ended June 30, 2026 was $7,796, an increase of $2,357 compared with Q2 2025. This movement was due to a greater depreciation basis arising from continued capital expenditures to increase the properties’ cost basis.
General and administrative expenses for the quarter ended June 30, 2026 were $5,767, an increase of $1,810 compared with Q2 2025. The increase was primarily attributable to greater salaries and benefits in Bolivia during the current period.
Other income for the quarter ended June 30, 2026 was $1,300, an increase from the loss of $51 in Q2 2025. The increase was due to higher interest income on VAT receivable balances which was partially offset by increases in the interest expense from loans payable.
Loss on change in fair value of consideration payable for the three months ended June 30, 2026 was $15,788 a significant increase from $1,034 in 2025. The consideration payable liability is a Contingent Value Right (CVR) obligation which requires that the Company make payments in the event that the price of zinc exceeds $3,850 per tonne. The average price of zinc in Q2 2026 was $3,476 which is approaching the price trigger for the payment and resulted in the CVR obligation increasing by $15,788 in the quarter with a corresponding non-cash expense charged to the income statement. The CVR liability is a valuation of the payouts that could occur up to the end of 2032 and does not represent a cash payment currently owed to Glencore. The payments are only triggered when the month’s average LME zine price exceeds $3,850 per tonne, a threshold that has not been exceed since the inception of the agreement in October 2024.
Foreign exchange gain for the quarter ended June 30, 2026 was $7,807, having increased by $4,663 compared with Q2 2025. This change was primarily attributed to the change in the Boliviano exchange rate, which led to a gain on the revaluation of monetary assets and liabilities.
Income tax expense for the quarter ended June 30, 2026 was $36.1 million, an increase of $35.0 million compared to Q2 2025. The significant increase was primarily attributable to several non-recurring items arising from changes in Bolivia’s foreign exchange and inflation assumptions, as well as higher taxable income resulting from stronger metal prices.
The most significant one-time event that impacted income tax expense was that in June 2026, Bolivia transitioned from a fixed official exchange rate between the Boliviano and the U.S. dollar to a floating exchange rate. The fixed rate was 6.96 BOB to $USD and the ending exchange rate at period end was 9.77, a 40% increase. The new exchange rate generated a significant increase in the tax basis of foreign-currency-denominated assets, most notably the Company’s cash and marketable securities generated from U.S. dollar-denominated sales. The resulting unrealized foreign exchange gain was recognized as taxable income under the Bolivian tax system. The increase in the exchange rate also caused taxable income to increase as the $USD denominated sales revenue translated to Bolivianos increased taxable income considerably.
A second significant one-time item that increased taxable income resulted from a downward revision in Bolivia’s expected inflation rate. The lower inflation assumption reduced the nominal value of future expenditures included in the Company’s decommissioning and restoration provision. This reduction in future estimated expenditures decreased the carrying value of the related liability, resulting in a gain that is taxable under Bolivian tax regulations.
The two one-time items represented a significant portion of the increase in Q2 2026 income tax expense and are non-recurring in nature but will affect the tax liability payable to the Bolivian government during fiscal 2026.
In addition to these non-recurring items, income tax expense increased as a result of higher taxable income during the quarter, primarily driven by the significant increase in metal prices compared with the prior-year period. For the six months ended June 30 2026 Income before tax has increased from $51,198 to $82,981 in 2025, a 38% increase year over year which drove an increase in the income tax expense.

Notes:
(1) On December 10, 2025 the Company consolidated its issued and outstanding common shares on the basis of one post-consolidated common share for every four pre-consolidated common shares. The number of issued and outstanding shares and any per share amounts have been retrospectively restated.
Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was $240,987, an increase of $97,378 compared with the six months ended June 30, 2025. The increase was primarily due to an increase in the average realized price of silver from $33.13 in 2025 to $76.33 in 2026.
Cost of sales for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was $131,886, an increase of $51,440 compared with the six months ended June 30, 2025. The increase was primarily driven by San Lucas, which operates a margin-based sourcing model, as higher silver and zinc prices in the current quarter increased ore purchase costs. Increase by cost category was attributed to ore purchase costs and mining and plant maintenance costs. The increase was offset by an update to the estimate of the future expenditures in Bolivia required for the restoration of mining properties which resulted in a decrease in the decommissioning and restoration provision exceeding the decommissioning and restoration asset. The remaining amount of the change was recorded as a reduction to cost of sales.
Depreciation, depletion and amortization for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was $15,093, an increase of $5,077 compared with the six months ended June 30, 2025. The increase is attributed to a greater depreciation basis arising from continued capital expenditures to increase the properties’ cost basis during the period.
General and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was $13,365, an increase of $4,488 compared with the six months ended June 30, 2025. The increase was mainly attributable to an increase in salaries and benefits in Bolivia, which increased as a result of the change in Boliviano exchange rate.
Other income for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was $3,460, an increase of $1,423 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025. The increase was due to higher interest income on VAT receivable balances which was partially offset by increases in the interest expense from loans payable.

Overview of Financial Results (continued)
Loss on change in fair value of consideration payable for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was $14,823, a significant increase from $2,979 in 2025. The consideration payable liability is a Contingent Value Right (CVR) obligation which requires that the Company make payments in the event that the price of zinc exceeds $3,850 per tonne. The average price of zinc in Q2 2026 was $3,476 which is approaching the price trigger for the payment and resulted in the CVR obligation increasing by $14,823 in the year with a corresponding non-cash expense charged to the income statement. The CVR liability is a valuation of the payouts that could occur up to the end of 2032 and does not represent a cash payment currently owed to Glencore. The payments are only triggered when the month’s average LME zine price exceeds $3,850 per tonne, a threshold that has not been exceed since the inception of the agreement in October 2024.
Foreign exchange gain for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was $14,849, an increase of $5,471 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025. This change was primarily attributed to the change in the Boliviano exchange rate, which led to a gain on the revaluation of monetary assets and liabilities.
Income tax expense for the quarter ended June 30, 2026 was $52,506, an increase of $37,376 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025. The significant increase was primarily attributable to several non-recurring items arising from changes in Bolivia’s foreign exchange and inflation assumptions, as well as higher taxable income resulting from stronger metal prices.
The most significant one-time event that impacted income tax expense was that in June 2026, Bolivia transitioned from a fixed official exchange rate between the Boliviano and the U.S. dollar to a floating exchange rate. The fixed rate was 6.96 BOB to $USD and the ending exchange rate at period end was 9.77, a 40% increase. The new exchange rate generated a significant increase in the tax basis of foreign-currency-denominated assets, most notably the Company’s cash and marketable securities generated from U.S. dollar-denominated sales. The resulting unrealized foreign exchange gain was recognized as taxable income under the Bolivian tax system. The increase in the exchange rate also caused taxable income to increase as the $USD denominated sales revenue translated to Bolivianos increased taxable income considerably.
A second significant one-time item that increased taxable income resulted from a downward revision in Bolivia’s expected inflation rate. The lower inflation assumption reduced the nominal value of future expenditures included in the Company’s decommissioning and restoration provision. This reduction in future estimated expenditures decreased the carrying value of the related liability, resulting in a gain that is taxable under Bolivian tax regulations.
The two one-time items represented a significant portion of the increase in the YTD 2026 income tax expense and are non-recurring in nature but will affect the tax payable to the Bolivian government during fiscal 2026.
In addition to these non-recurring items, income tax expense increased as a result of higher taxable income during the six months ended, primarily driven by the significant increase in metal prices compared with the prior-year period. Income before tax has increased from $22,041 to S38,072, a 73% increase quarter of quarter which has increased the income tax expense.

Liquidity, Capital Resources and Contractual Obligations
Liquidity
As at June 30, 2026, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $50,398 (December 31, 2025 - $44,267). The Company’s cash is not exposed to liquidity risk and there is no restriction on the ability of the Company to use these funds to meet its obligations. The Company also has $22,421 of marketable securities, which consist of liquid holdings of US treasury bills and treasury notes that can be readily sold to be converted into cash. The securities are held with Stifel bank which uses a portion of the holdings as collateral for the Standby Letters of Credit that were issued to Banco BISA and Banco Credito de Bolivia (see note 10(a) of the condensed interim consolidated financial statements). Although the securities held can be readily converted to cash, they are restricted to the extent that the amounts serve as collateral. The Standby Letter of credit issued to Banco BISA is for $10,000 and expires on April 20, 2027. The standby letter of credit issued to Banco Credito de Bolivia is for $5,800 and expires on September 14, 2026, and automatically renews every six months.
For the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company reported net income of $30,475 (six months ended June 30, 2025 - net income of $30,428). As at June 30, 2026, the Company had working capital of $86,122 (December 31, 2025 - working capital of $63,688).
The Company has a consideration payable balance outstanding for the acquisition of the Sinchi Wayra and Illapa operations which occurred in 2022. The consideration payable consisted of a base purchase price obligation and contingent value rights (“CVR”) obligation. The base purchase price obligation was fully paid in the third quarter of 2025, only the contingent value rights remain outstanding. The CVR has not resulted in any payments to date because the price of zinc has not reached the levels that would trigger a payment (greater than $3,850 per tonne).
As at June 30, 2026, the Company has non-current loans payable of $200 (December 31, 2025 - $1,344), and non-current consideration payable to Glencore of $35,066 (December 31, 2025 - $20,243). The consideration payable to Glencore is an estimated fair value of CVR payments that will only become payable if zinc price exceeds $3,850, which has not yet occurred.
Credit Facilities and Borrowings
The Company has a secured credit facility denominated in Bolivian Bolivianos with Banco BISA S.A. of BOB 55,000 ($5,635), which is comprised of a revolving credit facility of BOB 48,800 ($5,000) for the financing of mining operations and working capital with a fixed interest rate of 10.00% per annum.
The Company also has an unsecured revolving credit facility for working capital requirements and a loan guarantee with Banco de Crédito de Bolivia S.A. for a total of BOB 48,020 ($4,920).

| Cash, end of period | 50,398 | 39,997 | 50,398 | 39,997 | ||||||||||||
Operating Activities
Operating cash flow for the quarter decreased by $15,020 compared to 2025. Lower operating cash flow was primarily driven by higher income taxes paid during the current period.
Investing Activities
Cash used in investing activities decreased by $30,421 compared to 2025. The decrease was attributed to the full repayment and extinguishment of the base purchase price of the consideration payable to Glencore for the acquisition of Sinchi Wayra in 2025. This was offset by an increase in capital expenditures of $4,287 during the quarter.
The Company continues to invest in marketable securities that are held with Stifel Bank, which uses a portion of the holdings as collateral for the Standby Letters of Credit that were issued to Banco BISA and Banco Credito de Bolivia. The Company received proceeds of $12,529 from disposals of securities during the current year period, and reinvested the proceeds into purchases of additional securities for $12,786.
Financing Activities
For the six months ended June 30, 2026, cash used by financing activities was $1,425, compared to a net amount provided of $11,998 in 2025. During the current period, the Company received $54,969 from the proceeds of loans and repaid $56,662 on those loans and lease liabilities, compared to $44,057 and $30,500 respectively during 2025.
Proceeds from the exercise of stock options were $1,102, compared to $nil in 2025.
Capital Resources
The Company’s objective when managing capital is to maintain financial flexibility to continue as a going concern while optimizing growth and maximizing returns of investments from shareholders.
The Company monitors its capital structure and based on changes in operations and economic conditions, may from time to time adjust the structure by repurchasing shares, issuing new shares, issuing new debt or retiring existing debt. The Company prepares an annual budget and quarterly forecasts to facilitate the management of its capital requirements. The annual budget is approved by the Company’s Board of Directors.
The Company is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements with the exception of compliance with covenants for the San Lucas Promissory Notes Issuance program. The Company is fully compliant with all financial covenants stipulated in the agreement.

With respect to longer term capital expenditure funding requirements, the Company believes that cash flow from its existing operations, available credit through existing debt facilities and access to debt and capital markets is adequate and will enable the Company to maintain an appropriate overall liquidity position. The Company continues to assess financing alternatives, including equity or debt or a combination of both, to fund future growth.
Off-balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company has not entered into any material off-balance sheet arrangement such as guarantee contracts, contingent interests in assets transferred to unconsolidated entities or derivative financial obligations.

Financial Instruments and Other Instruments (continued)
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 carrying values of cash, other receivables, and trade payables and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values because of their short-term nature.
Marketable securities consist of US treasury notes and US treasury bills which are held as part of the Company’s cash position and liquidity management strategy. The marketable securities are measured at fair value using level 1 inputs, the unrealized gain/loss is recorded as other comprehensive income and once the securities are sold or mature the corresponding gain/loss is recorded as other income/expense.
The securities are held with Steifel bank which uses a portion of the holdings as collateral for the Standby Letters of Credit that were issued to Banco BISA and Banco Credito de Bolivia (see note 10(a) of the condensed interim consolidated financial statements). Although the securities held can be readily converted to cash they are restricted to the extent that the amounts serve as collateral. The Standby Letter of credit issued to Banco BISA is for $10,000 and expires on May 26, 2026. The standby letter of credit issued to Banco Credito de Bolivia is for $5,800 and expires on March 26, 2026, and automatically renews each year. Since the standby letter of credit to Banco Credito de Bolivia will renew indefinitely, the amount held as collateral has been classified as non-current.
Trade receivables are measured at fair value using Level 2 inputs. The fair value of trade receivables is measured based on inputs other than quoted prices for the underlying commodity prices (silver, lead, zinc, copper) to which the receivable relates as the trade receivables are provisionally priced at the time of sale.
The fair value of the loans payable for disclosure purposes is determined using discounted cash flows based on the expected amounts and timing of future cash flows discounted using a market rate of interest adjusted for appropriate credit risk.
The levels in the fair value hierarchy into which the Company’s financial assets and liabilities that are measured and recognized on the consolidated statements of financial position at fair value on a recurring basis were categorized as follows:
| June 30, 2026 | December 31, 2025 | |||||||||||||||||||||||
| Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 3 | Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 3 | |||||||||||||||||||
| Assets | $ | $ | $ | $ | $ | $ | ||||||||||||||||||

| - | - | 35,066 | - | - | 20,243 | |||||||||||||||||||
The majority of the Company’s trade receivables arose from provisional concentrate sales and are valued using quoted market prices based on the forward London Metal Exchange for silver, zinc and lead and the London Bullion Market Association P.M. fix for silver.
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 as at December 31, 2025.

Financial Instruments and Other Instruments (continued)
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 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.
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 Company has concentrate contracts to sell the zinc and lead concentrates produced by all of the Company’s mines and the San Lucas trading business. 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 June 30, 2026, the Company had receivable balances associated with buyers of its concentrates of $44,439 (December 31, 2025 - $20,371). The Company’s concentrate is sold to well-known concentrate buyers.
The following financial assets represent the maximum credit risk to the Company:

Management constantly monitors and assesses the credit risk resulting from its concentrate sales, trading counterparties and customers. Other than as set out in the above table, the Company believes it is not exposed to significant credit risk.
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they come due. The Company manages its liquidity risk by continuously monitoring forecasted and actual cash flows. The Company has in place a rigorous planning and budgeting process to help determine the funds required to support the Company’s normal operating requirements on an ongoing basis and its expansion plans. The Company strives to maintain sufficient liquidity to meet its short-term business requirements, taking into account its anticipated cash flows from operations, its holdings of cash and short-term investments, and its committed loan facilities.
In the normal course of business, the Company enters into contracts that give rise to commitments for future minimum payments. The following tables summarize the remaining contractual maturities of the Company’s financial liabilities and operating and capital commitments on an undiscounted basis:

Financial Instruments and Other Instruments (continued)
Currency risk
The Company reports its financial statements in 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.
The sensitivity of the Company’s net income to changes in the exchange rate between the US dollar and the Bolivian boliviano, the US dollar and the Mexican peso and the US dollar and the Canadian dollar, respectively, would be as follows: a 1% change in the US dollar exchange rate relative to the Bolivian boliviano would change the Company’s net income by approximately $308, a 1% change in the US dollar exchange rate relative to the Mexican peso would change the Company’s net income by approximately $245, and a 1% change in the US dollar exchange rate relative to the Canadian dollar would change the Company’s net income by approximately $(75).
The Company’s financial assets and liabilities as at June 30, 2026 are denominated in Canadian dollars, US dollars, Bolivian bolivianos and Mexican pesos and translated to US dollars as follows:

Interest rate risk
The fair values and future cash flows of the Company will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates generating interest rate risk. The Company monitors its exposure to interest rates and has not entered into any derivative contracts to manage this risk. As at June 30, 2026, the Company’s exposure to interest rate risk on interest bearing liabilities is limited to its consideration payable, debt facilities and lease liabilities. Based on the Company’s interest rate exposure at June 30, 2026, a change of 1% increase or decrease of market interest rate would impact the Company’s income or loss by approximately $489.
Price risk
Metal price risk is the risk that changes in metal prices will affect the Company’s income or the value of its related financial instruments. The Company derives its revenue from the sale of silver, zinc, lead and copper. 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 metal.

Outstanding Share Data
As at the date of this report, the Company has 92,990,284 common shares issued and outstanding, 1,039,789 common shares issuable under stock options, 452,997 common shares issuable under restricted share units, 304,000 common shares issuable under performance share units, 228,750 common shares issuable under deferred share units.
On December 10, 2025 the Company consolidated its issued and outstanding common shares on the basis of one post-consolidated common share for every four pre-consolidated common shares. The number of issued and outstanding shares, options, warrants, DSUs, RSUs and PSUs, and any per share amounts in the consolidated financial statements have been retrospectively restated in notes 10, 13, and 23 for all periods presented unless otherwise stated.
Internal Controls over Financial Reporting and Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company has disclosure controls and procedures in place to provide reasonable assurance that any information required to be disclosed by the Company under securities legislation is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the applicable time periods and that required information is gathered and communicated to the Company’s management so that decisions can be made about the timely disclosure of that information.
The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal controls over financial reporting. Any system of internal controls over financial reporting, no matter how well designed, has inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.
The Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, believe that any disclosure controls and procedures or internal controls over financial reporting, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, the Company’s management cannot provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been prevented or detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgements in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by unauthorized override of the control. The design of any control system is also 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. Accordingly, because of the inherent limitations in a cost- effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
Non-GAAP Measures
Silver and Zinc Equivalent Production Figures
The Company considers silver equivalent (“AgEq”) ounces and zinc equivalent (“ZnEq”) tonnes to be useful production metrics for evaluating its multi-metal production profile but they should be considered only supplemental. These measures are commonly used in the mining industry as reference metrics to facilitate period-over-period comparisons and, where relevant, benchmarking against industry peers. The metrics should be viewed as supplemental to, and not a substitute for the actual metal production volumes disclosed for each metal.
| -36- |
Non-GAAP Measures (continued)
AgEq ounces and ZnEq tonnes are calculated by applying conversion factors that normalize the value of each non-reference metal to the selected reference metal. For AgEq ounces, the values of zinc, lead, and copper are converted into silver equivalent ounces. For ZnEq tonnes, the values of silver, lead, and copper are converted into zinc equivalent tonnes. Each conversion factor is derived from the ratio of the in-situ metal value of the contained fine metal to the price of the reference metal used in the equivalency calculation. The denominator used to calculate silver equivalent ounces is the silver price, while the denominator used to calculate zinc equivalent tonnes is the zinc price. This methodology expresses multi-metal production in a common unit of measure. Since the silver price and zinc price are the denominators in each metric, price variations of these metals can significantly affect the result, especially when one metal price changes significantly relative to the other metal prices.
The metal prices used in the calculation of AgEq and ZnEq are based on the average quarterly prices quoted on the London Metal Exchange (“LME”).

The methods used by the Company to calculate these equivalencies may differ from those used by other companies reporting similar metrics and may not be directly comparable. These measures are intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures prepared in accordance with IFRS.
Costs per tonne milled, silver ounce sold or zinc tonne sold
The Company has included certain non-GAAP performance measures throughout this MD&A including cash cost per tonne milled, cash cost per silver ounce sold, cash cost per zinc tonne sold, all-in sustaining cost (“AISC”) per silver ounce sold, all-in sustaining cost (“AISC”) per zinc tonne sold, average realized price per silver ounce sold, average realized price per zinc tonne sold, mining/ore processing margin per silver ounce sold, mining/ore processing margin per zinc tonne sold, and adjusted EBITDA each as defined in this section.
These performance measures are employed by the Company to measure its operating and financial performance internally, to assist in business decision-making, and provide key performance information to senior management. The Company believes that, in addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with IFRS, certain investors and other stakeholders also use these non-GAAP measures as information to evaluate the Company’s operating and financial performance. As there are no standardized methods of calculating these non-GAAP measures, the Company’s methods may differ from those used by others and, accordingly, the Company’s use of these measures may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures used by others. Accordingly, these non-GAAP measures are intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS.

Non-GAAP Measures (continued)
Cash cost of production per tonne milled, cash cost per silver ounce and zinc tonne sold, all-in sustaining cost (“AISC”) per silver ounce and zinc tonne sold
The non-GAAP measures of cash cost per silver ounce sold and cash cost per zinc tonne sold and cash cost of production per tonne milled are used by the Company to manage and evaluate operating performance at respective mining operations and are widely reported in the silver mining industry as benchmarks for performance, but do not have a standardized meaning. cash costs are calculated based on the cash operating costs at the respective mining operations and, in the case of cash cost per silver ounce sold and cash cost per zinc tonne sold, also include the third party concentrate treatment, smelting and refining cost.
Management of the Company believes that the Company’s ability to control the cash cost per silver ounce and zinc tonne sold and cash cost of production per tonne milled are three of its key performance drivers impacting both the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. Having a low cash cost of production per tonne milled, when taken in connection with effective management of mining dilution, will improve the cash cost per silver ounce and zinc tonne produced. Having a low-cost base per silver ounce and zinc tonne of production allows the Company to continue operating during times of declining commodity prices and provides more flexibility in responding to changing market conditions. In addition, low-cost operations offer a better opportunity to generate positive cash-flows, which improves the Company’s financial condition. The Company believes these measures provide investors and analysts with useful information about the Company’s underlying cash costs of operations and are relevant metrics used to understand the Company’s operating profitability and ability to generate cash-flow.
To facilitate a better understanding of these measures as calculated by the Company, the following tables provides a detailed reconciliation between the cash cost per silver ounce sold, cash cost per zinc tonne sold and the cash cost of production per tonne milled, and the Company’s operating expenses as reported in the Company’s consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) contained in the respective financial statements for the referenced periods.
The Company’s operations are poly-metallic whereby each tonne of ore milled generates primarily payable ounces of silver and tonnes of zinc but also generates payable tonnes of lead and copper. The combined revenues of lead and copper are incidental to our primary metal production of silver and zinc because they generate less than 10% of total revenues. Lead and copper concentrate is produced primarily to obtain the silver contained within so the Company has adopted the practice of calculating the net cost of producing an ounce of silver, after deducting revenues gained from incidental by-product production of lead and copper. This performance measurement has been commonly used in the mining industry for many years and was developed as a relatively simple way of comparing the net production costs of the primary metal for a specific period against the prevailing market price of that metal.
The Company’s primary payable metals are silver ounces and zinc tonnes, the revenue generated by each metal varies depending on prevailing metal prices but because one metal generates greater than 30% of the total revenues, the Company has concluded that reporting costs as co-products by silver ounces sold and zinc tonnes sold is the most appropriate way to assess the performance of its operations. The total tonnes of ore milled in the period generates silver and zinc payable metals, the ratio of payable silver and zinc produced from each tonne milled is used to allocate each period’s production costs between silver ounces sold and zinc tonnes sold. The Company calculates the tonnes milled to payable silver and zinc for each operation and for each period separately in order to most appropriately allocate costs between each primary metal for the purposes of determining the cash cost per silver ounce and zinc tonne sold.
AISC is a non-GAAP measure and was calculated based on guidance provided by the World Gold Council (“WGC”) in September 2013. 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 differences in definitions of sustaining versus development capital expenditures.
| -38- |
Non-GAAP Measures (continued)
AISC is a more comprehensive measure than cash cost per ounce for the Company’s operating performance by providing greater visibility, comparability and representation of the total costs associated with producing silver from its mining operations.
Consolidated AISC includes total production cash costs incurred at the Company’s mining operations, which forms the basis of the Company’s total cash costs. Additionally, the Company includes sustaining capital expenditures, corporate general and administrative expense, sustaining share-based payments, and reclamation cost accretion. The Company defines sustaining capital expenditures as, “costs incurred to sustain and maintain existing assets at current productive capacity and constant planned levels of productive output without resulting in an increase in the life of assets, future earnings, or improvements in recovery or grade. Sustaining capital includes costs required to improve/enhance assets to minimum standards for reliability, environmental or safety requirements.”
The Company believes that the AISC measure represents the total sustainable costs of producing silver and zinc from current operations and provides the Company and other stakeholders of the Company with additional information of the Company’s operational performance and ability to generate cash flows. As the measure seeks to reflect the full cost of silver and zinc production from current operations, new project capital and expansionary capital at current operations are not included. Certain other cash expenditures, including tax payments, dividends and financing costs are also not included.

Average realized price per silver ounce and zinc tonne sold – Mining operations
Revenues are presented as the sum of invoiced revenues related to delivered shipments of zinc, lead and copper concentrates, after having deducted treatment, smelting and refining charges made by the customer. The average realized price per silver ounce and zinc tonne sold is an analysis of the gross revenues prior to the treatment, smelting, refining and metallurgical deduction charges which is then divided by silver equivalent ounces and zinc tonnes sold. The following tables show a detailed reconciliation of average realized price per silver ounce or zinc tonne sold to our revenues as reported in the condensed interim consolidated financial statements.

Cash cost of production per tonne milled, cash cost per silver ounce or zinc tonne sold, all-in sustaining cost (“AISC”) per silver ounce or zinc tonne sold – Ore processing
The following tables provide a detailed reconciliation of these measures to our operating expenses, as reported in our condensed interim consolidated financial statements. Readers should be cautioned that the cash cost, AISC and cash cost per tonne milled are not key metrics for evaluating the performance of our ore processing operations because ore is purchased from third-party miners who are paid based upon the metal content and prevailing market prices at the time of purchase. The cash cost per silver ounce sold and zinc tonne sold and the AISC per silver ounce or zinc tonne sold should not be compared to or consolidated with the results from the Mining operations because of the different nature of the businesses.

Realized ore processing margin for silver ounces and zinc tonnes sold
The key metric for evaluating the performance and profitability of ore processing operations is the realized ore processing margin. The realized ore processing margin is calculated by subtracting the All-in sustaining cost (“AISC”) per silver ounce or zinc tonne sold from the Average realized price per silver ounce or zinc tonne sold. The non-GAAP measures of cash cost per silver ounce sold and zinc tonne sold and the AISC per silver ounce or zinc tonne sold for Ore Processing operations are calculated based upon the same basis as those used to calculate the same metrics for mining operations.
The realized ore processing margin should not be compared with the realized mining margin because of the differences in the nature of the business. Ore processing operations operate with a much lower margin because ore is purchased from third-party miners instead of being extracted from the Company own mine properties.
San Lucas provides Santacruz with an important strategic advantage by supplying third-party ore feed to existing processing plants, helping maintain high plant utilization and support more stable operating performance. By keeping processing facilities closer to full capacity, San Lucas contributes to better absorption of fixed costs across the production base, which can improve unit cost efficiency and strengthen margins. In addition, the business provides operational flexibility by allowing the Company to supplement mine production with externally sourced material when appropriate, while generating margin-based returns tied to processing capacity, metallurgical recoveries, and disciplined ore purchasing. This model enhances the overall resilience of the Company’s operating platform and supports a more efficient use of existing infrastructure.
The Company believes the realized ore processing margin provides investors and analysts with useful information about the Company’s underlying operating performance from its Ore processing operations.

Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure in which net income is adjusted for income tax expense, interest income, interest expense, amortization and depletion, and impairment charges, foreign exchange gains or losses, unrealized losses or gains on marketable securities, share-based payments expense, accretion expense, changes in fair value of consideration payable and other non-recurring items. Foreign exchange gains or losses may consist of both realized and unrealized losses.
Under IFRS, entities must reflect in compensation expense the cost of share-based payments. In the Company’s circumstances, share-based payments can involve a significant accrual of amounts that will not be settled in cash but are settled by the issuance of shares in exchange.
The Company discloses Adjusted EBITDA to aid in understanding of the results of the Company and is meant to provide further information about the Company’s financial results to investors.
