The Company has reaffirmed its full-year 2026 guidance, including production, CAS, capital expenditures, depreciation, depletion and amortization, exploration, general and administrative expenses, and income and mining tax. Overall cost guidance reflects higher expected royalty expense driven by stronger realized metal prices, particularly at Rochester, the impact of a stronger Mexican peso, inflation of 3% to 5% across the portfolio, and higher planned maintenance costs. For our co-product mines (New Afton, Las Chispas, Palmarejo, and Rochester), costs are allocated to gold, silver, and copper based on their relative revenue contribution. Given the higher expected contribution of silver to total revenue due to the outperformance of silver’s price relative to the gold price, silver CAS per ounce is expected to be higher in 2026, consistent with the trend seen in the second half of 2025.
