AGNICO EAGLE MINES LIMITED
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2025
This Management’s Discussion and Analysis (“MD&A”) dated April 24, 2025 of Agnico Eagle Mines Limited (“Agnico Eagle” or the “Company”) should be read in conjunction with the Company’s condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2025 (the “First Quarter Financial Statements”) prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), International Accounting Standard 34 Interim Financial Reporting as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). This MD&A should also be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual Management’s Discussion and Analysis (“Annual MD&A”) and annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS (“Annual Financial Statements”). The condensed interim consolidated financial statements and this MD&A are presented in United States dollars (“US dollars”, “$” or “US$”) and all units of measurement are expressed using the metric system, unless otherwise specified. Certain information in this MD&A is presented in Canadian dollars (“C$”), Australian dollars (“A$”) or European Union euros (“Euros” or “€”). Additional information relating to the Company is included in the Company’s Annual Information Form for the year ended December 31, 2024 (the “AIF”). The AIF, Annual MD&A and Annual Financial Statements are available on the Canadian Securities Administrators’ (the “CSA”) SEDAR website at www.sedarplus.ca and included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 40-F for the year ended December 31, 2024 (the “Form 40-F”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and available at www.sec.gov/edgar.
Certain statements contained in this MD&A, referred to herein as “forward-looking statements”, constitute “forward-looking information” under the provisions of Canadian provincial securities laws and “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. See Forward-Looking Statements in this MD&A.
This MD&A discloses certain financial performance measures, including “total cash costs per ounce”, “all-in sustaining costs per ounce” ​(also referred to as “AISC per ounce”), “minesite costs per tonne”, “adjusted net income”, “adjusted net income per share”, “earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization” (also referred to as “EBITDA”), “adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization” (also referred to as “adjusted EBITDA”), “free cash flow”, “free cash flow before changes in non-cash components of working capital”, “sustaining capital expenditures”, “sustaining capitalized exploration”, “development capital expenditures”, “development capitalized exploration”, and “operating margin” that are not standardized measures under IFRS. These measures and ratios may not be comparable to similar measures or ratios reported by other gold producers. Each of “total cash costs per ounce” and “all-in sustaining costs per ounce” are reported on a per ounce of gold produced basis and, unless otherwise indicated, are reported on a by-product basis (deducting by-product metal revenues from production costs). Minesite costs per tonne is reported on a per tonne of ore milled basis. For a discussion of the composition and usefulness of these measures and ratios and reconciliation of each of them to the most directly comparable financial information presented in the condensed interim consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS, see Non-GAAP Financial Performance Measures in this MD&A.
This MD&A also contains information as to estimated future total cash costs per ounce, AISC per ounce and minesite costs per tonne. These estimates are based upon the total cash costs per ounce, AISC per ounce and minesite costs per tonne that the Company expects to incur to mine gold at its mines and projects and, consistent with the reconciliation of these actual costs referred to below under Non-GAAP Financial Performance Measures, do not include production costs attributable to accretion expense and other asset retirement costs, which will vary over time as each project is developed and mined. It is therefore not practicable to reconcile these forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable IFRS measure.
Payable production (a non-GAAP non-financial performance measure) is the quantity of mineral produced during a period contained in products that have been or will be sold by the Company, whether such products are sold during the period or held as inventories at the end of the period.
Unless otherwise stated, references to “LaRonde”, “Canadian Malartic”, “Meadowbank” and “Goldex” are to the Company’s operations at the LaRonde complex, the Canadian Malartic complex, the Meadowbank complex and the Goldex complex, respectively. The LaRonde complex consists of the mining, milling and processing operations at the LaRonde mine and the LaRonde Zone 5 mine (“LZ5”).

AGNICO EAGLE MINES LIMITED
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2025
The Canadian Malartic complex consists of the mining, milling and processing operations at the Canadian Malartic mine and the mining operations at the Odyssey mine. The Meadowbank complex consists of the mining, milling and processing operations at the Meadowbank mine and the Amaruq open pit and underground mines. The Goldex complex consists of the mining, milling and processing operations at the Goldex mine and the mining operations at the Akasaba West open pit mine (“Akasaba West”). References to other operations are to the relevant mines, projects or properties, as applicable.
Meaning of “include” “including” and “such as”: When used in this MD&A the terms “include”, “including” and “such as” mean including and such as, without limitation, respectively.
Business Overview
Agnico Eagle is a senior Canadian gold mining company that has produced precious metals since its formation in 1972. The Company’s mines are located in Canada, Australia, Finland and Mexico with exploration and development activities in Canada, Australia, Europe, Latin America and the United States. The Company and its shareholders have full exposure to gold prices due to its long-standing policy of no forward gold sales. Agnico Eagle has declared a cash dividend every year since 1983.
Agnico Eagle earns a significant proportion of its revenue and cash flow from the production and sale of gold in both doré bar and concentrate form. The remainder of revenue and cash flow is generated by the production and sale of by-product metals, primarily silver, zinc and copper.
Agnico Eagle’s operating mines and development projects are located in what the Company believes to be politically stable countries that are generally supportive of the mining industry. The political stability of the regions in which Agnico Eagle operates helps to provide confidence in its current and future prospects and profitability. This is important for Agnico Eagle as it believes that many of its current mines and projects have long-term mining potential.
Recent Developments
Tariffs
On February 1, 2025, the United States introduced tariffs on imports from countries including Canada. In response, the Canadian and other governments have announced retaliatory tariffs on imports from the United States. In certain cases, the implementation or application of these tariffs have been postponed and exceptions to such tariffs have been made in respect of certain goods. However, the international trade disputes set in motion by these tariffs, retaliatory tariffs and other actions remains fluid. At this time, the Company believes its revenue structure will be largely unaffected by the tariffs as its gold production is mostly refined in Canada, Australia or Europe. The Company continues to review its exposure to the tariffs and trade disputes and its alternatives to inputs sourced from suppliers that may be subject to the tariffs, if implemented, or other trade disputes. However, approximately 60% of the Company’s cost structure relates to labour, contractors, energy and royalties, which are not expected to be directly affected by any of the tariffs or trade disputes. While there is uncertainty as to whether the tariffs or retaliatory tariffs will be implemented, the quantum of such tariffs, the goods on which they may be applied and the ultimate effect of tariffs or other trade disputes on the Company’s supply chains, the Company will continue to monitor developments and may take steps to limit the effect of any tariffs or trade disputes on it as may be appropriate in the circumstances.
Acquisition of O3 Mining Inc.
On December 12, 2024, the Company announced that it had entered into a definitive support agreement with O3 Mining Inc. (“O3 Mining”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to offer to acquire, by way of take-over bid, all of the outstanding common shares of O3 Mining at C$1.67 per share in cash directly or indirectly (the “O3 Offer”). On January 23, 2025, the Company, indirectly through a wholly-owned subsidiary, took-up and acquired 110,424,431 common shares of O3 Mining under the O3 Offer for aggregate consideration of C$184.4 million.

AGNICO EAGLE MINES LIMITED
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2025
The Company also extended the O3 Offer until February 3, 2025 to allow remaining shareholders of O3 Mining to tender to the O3 Offer. On February 3, 2025, the Company, indirectly through a wholly-owned subsidiary, took up and acquired an additional 4,360,806 O3 Shares during the extension period of the O3 Offer, resulting in an aggregate of 114,785,237 O3 Shares being taken up and acquired under the O3 Offer, representing approximately 95.6% of the outstanding O3 Shares on an undiluted basis, for aggregate consideration of C$191.7 million. On March 18, 2025, O3 Mining and one of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries amalgamated under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario), which resulted in the Company owning 100% of the O3 Shares.
O3 Mining’s primary asset is its 100%-owned Marban Alliance property located near Val d’Or, in the Abitibi region of Québec, and is adjacent to Canadian Malartic. The Marban Alliance property includes the Marban deposit, which is an advanced exploration project with potential to support an open pit mining operation similar to those at the Barnat open pit at Canadian Malartic.
Financial and Operating Results
Operating Results
Agnico Eagle reported net income of $814.7 million, or $1.62 per share, in the first quarter of 2025, compared with net income of $347.2 million, or $0.70 per share, in the first quarter of 2024. The key drivers of the changes in net income are set out in the table below.
Agnico Eagle reported adjusted net income1 of $770.1 million, or $1.53 per share1, in the first quarter of 2025, compared with adjusted net income of $377.5 million, or $0.76 per share, in the first quarter of 2024. The increase was primarily due to higher operating margins between periods. Agnico Eagle reported EBITDA1 of $1,633.8 million in the first quarter of 2025 compared with $882.5 million in the first quarter of 2024. Adjusted EBITDA1 increased in the first quarter of 2025 to $1,589.9 million compared to $929.3 million in the first quarter of 2024. The increase was primarily due to higher operating margins between periods.
In the first quarter of 2025, operating margin1 increased by 62.5% to $1,700.5 million, compared with $1,046.2 million in the first quarter of 2024, primarily due to a 34.9% increase in revenues from mining operations as a result of higher gold prices, partially offset by lower sales volumes mainly at Fosterville and Canadian Malartic.
Gold production decreased to 873,794 ounces in the first quarter of 2025 compared with 878,652 ounces in the first quarter of 2024, primarily due to decreased gold production from Canadian Malartic, Fosterville, La India and Pinos Altos, partially offset by increased gold production at LaRonde, Macassa and Meadowbank.
Cash provided by operating activities increased to $1,044.2 million in the first quarter of 2025 compared with $783.2 million in the first quarter of 2024, primarily due to higher operating margins, partially offset by less favourable working capital movements between periods.
Free cash flow1 increased to $594.1 million in the first quarter of 2025 compared with $395.6 million in the first quarter of 2024, primarily due to higher operating margins, partially offset by less favourable working capital movements between periods. Free cash flow before changes in non-cash components of working capital1 increased to $759.3 million in the first quarter of 2025 compared with $389.5 million in the first quarter of 2024 due to higher operating margins in the current period, partially offset by greater capital expenditures between periods.

Adjusted net income, adjusted net income per share, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, operating margin, free cash flow and free cash flow before changes in non-cash components of working capital are non-GAAP measures or ratios that are not standardized financial measures under IFRS. For reconciliation of these measures to the most directly comparable financial measure under IFRS, and a discussion of their composition and usefulness, see Non-GAAP Financial Performance Measures.

$ 467.5
Three Months Ended March 31, 2025 vs. Three Months Ended March 31, 2024
Revenues from mining operations increased to $2,468.2 million in the first quarter of 2025, compared with $1,829.8 million in the first quarter of 2024, primarily due to a 40.2% increase in the average realized price of gold, partially offset by a 4.1% decrease in sales volume of gold primarily due to lower sales volume from Fosterville, Canadian Malartic, La India, Detour Lake and Meliadine, partially offset by higher gold sales volume from Meadowbank and Macassa.
Production costs were $767.7 million in the first quarter of 2025, a 2.0% decrease compared with $783.6 million in the first quarter of 2024, primarily due to the contribution of lower production costs at La India transitioning into pre-closure activities in 2025. During the first quarter of 2025, decreased production costs at Meliadine, LaRonde and Canadian Malartic were offset by increased production costs at Meadowbank and Pinos Altos. The overall decrease in production costs is mainly attributed to the weakening of the Canadian dollar relative to the US dollar between periods, partially offset by higher royalties arising from higher gold prices.
Total cash costs per ounce of gold produced amounted to $903 on a by-product basis2 and $946 on a co-product basis2 in the first quarter of 2025 compared with $901 on a by-product basis and $930 on a co-product basis in the first quarter of 2024. The increase in cash costs per ounce on both a by-product and co-product basis is primarily due to increased total cash costs per ounce of gold produced at Fosterville, Canadian Malartic and Detour, partially offset by decreased cash costs per ounce of gold produced at LaRonde and Macassa.
Exploration and corporate development expenses decreased to $41.8 million in the first quarter of 2025, compared with $51.2 million in the first quarter of 2024, primarily due to lower exploration expenses at LaRonde, Canadian Malartic and Hope Bay.
Amortization of property, plant and mine development increased by $59.6 million to $416.8 million between the first quarter of 2024 and the first quarter of 2025, primarily due to higher amortization at Canadian Malartic, LaRonde and Meadowbank, partially offset by lower amortization at Macassa and La India.
2
Total cash costs per ounce of gold on both a by-product and co-product basis are non-GAAP measures that are not standardized financial measures under IFRS. For a reconciliation of these measures to production costs and a discussion of the composition and usefulness of these measures, see Non-GAAP Financial Performance Measures.

AGNICO EAGLE MINES LIMITED
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2025
General and administrative expenses increased to $60.7 million during the first quarter of 2025, compared with $48.1 million during the first quarter of 2024 primarily due to an increase in employee compensation costs between periods.
Gain on derivative financial instruments increased to $68.9 million during the first quarter of 2025, compared with a loss of $45.9 million during the first quarter of 2024, primarily due to an increase in unrealized gains on the Company’s currency derivatives and an increase in the market value of the Company’s warrants between periods.
In the first quarter of 2025, the Company recorded income and mining taxes expense of $379.8 million on income before income and mining taxes of $1,194.6 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 31.8%. In the first quarter of 2024, the Company recorded income and mining taxes expense of $141.9 million on income before income and mining taxes of $489.0 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 29.0%. The increase in the effective tax rate between the first quarter of 2025 and the first quarter of 2024 is primarily due to the increase in the mining taxes as a result of the overall increase in the operational profitability of the mining operations.
There are several factors that can significantly impact the Company’s effective tax rate including varying rates in different jurisdictions, the non-recognition of certain tax assets, mining allowances, foreign currency exchange rate movements, changes in tax laws, the impact of specific transactions and assessments and the relative distribution of income in the Company’s operating jurisdictions. As a result of these factors, the Company’s effective tax rate is expected to continue to fluctuate in future periods.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2025
Gold production
First Quarter of 2025 — At Canadian Malartic, gold production decreased by 14.5% to 159,773 ounces in the first quarter of 2025 compared with 186,906 ounces in the first quarter of 2024, primarily due to lower grades as per the mining sequence and an increased sourcing of ore processed from the low grade stockpiles, and lower throughput.
Production costs
First Quarter of 2025 — Production costs at Canadian Malartic were $119.3 million in the first quarter of 2025, a decrease of 5.8% compared with production costs of $126.6 million in the first quarter of 2024. The decrease is mainly attributed to lower open-pit mining costs and the weakening of the Canadian dollar relative to the US dollar between periods, partially offset by higher royalty costs and the timing of inventory sales in the current period.
Production costs per tonne increased when compared to the prior-year period primarily due to lower volume of ore milled. Production costs per ounce increased when compared to the prior-year period due to fewer ounces of gold produced in the current period.
Minesite cost per tonne and total cash costs per ounce
First Quarter of 2025 — Minesite costs per tonne increased when compared to the prior-year period mainly due to the lower volume of ore milled. Total cash costs per ounce increased when compared to the prior-year period primarily due to fewer ounces of gold produced in the current period.
Goldex

Total assets of $30.6 billion as at March 31, 2025 increased by $0.6 billion, compared with total assets of $30.0 billion as at December 31, 2024. The Company’s total assets are primarily comprised of non-current assets such as property, plant and mine development and goodwill. The increase in total assets is primarily due to an increase in investments, cash and cash equivalents and property, plant and mine development.
Total liabilities of $9.0 billion at March 31, 2025 decreased by $0.2 billion compared with total liabilities of $9.2 billion at December 31, 2024. The decrease in total liabilities is primarily due to a decrease in income taxes payable between periods. The Company’s total liabilities are primarily comprised of non-current liabilities such as deferred income and mining tax liabilities, long-term debt and reclamation provisions.
While the Company occasionally enters into contracts to limit the risk associated with decreased by-product metal prices, increased foreign currency costs (including where used for capital expenditures) and input costs, the contracts act as economic hedges of underlying exposures and are not held for speculative purposes. Agnico Eagle does not use complex derivative contracts to hedge exposures. As at March 31, 2025, the Company had outstanding currency derivative contracts related to $4,108.4 million of 2025 and 2026 expenditures (December 31, 2024 — $4,006.5 million) and diesel fuel derivative contracts related to 26.0 million gallons of heating oil (December 31, 2024 — 28.0 million).

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2025
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As at March 31, 2025, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents totaled $1,138.3 million compared with $926.4 million as at December 31, 2024. The Company’s policy is to invest excess cash in what the Company believes to be highly liquid investments of high credit quality to attempt to reduce risks associated with these investments. Investments with remaining maturities of less than three months at the time of purchase are classified as cash equivalents. The Company’s decisions regarding the length of maturities it holds are based on cash flow requirements, rates of return and other factors.
Working capital (current assets less current liabilities) increased to $1,695.2 million as at March 31, 2025, compared with $1,293.3 million as at December 31, 2024, primarily due to a $211.9 million increase in cash and cash equivalents as a result of higher realized gold prices and an increase in the sales volume of gold. The Company also used the cash it generated during the first quarter of 2025 to reduce income taxes payable and accounts payable by $168.4 million and $86.4 million, respectively. These movements in working capital were partially offset by a $64.1 million decrease in inventories.
In February 2025, Moody’s revised its rating outlook for the Company to positive from stable and re-affirmed the Company’s long-term issuer rating of Baa1, reflecting the Company’s strengthening credit profile and financial position.
Subject to various risks and uncertainties, including those set out in this MD&A, in the Annual MD&A and in the Company’s AIF, the Company believes it will generate sufficient cash flow from operations and has adequate cash and debt facilities available to finance its current operations, working capital requirements, contractual obligations, debt maturities, planned capital expenditure and exploration programs. While the Company believes its capital resources will be sufficient to satisfy all its mandatory and discretionary commitments, the Company may choose to decrease certain of its discretionary expenditure commitments, which include certain capital expenditures and exploration and corporate development expenses, should unexpected financial circumstances arise in the future. See “Risk Profile” in this MD&A for further details.
Operating Activities
Cash provided by operating activities increased to $1,044.2 million in the first quarter of 2025 compared with $783.2 million in the first quarter of 2024 primarily due to an increase in revenues from mining operations as a result of a 40.2% increase in the average realized price of gold, between periods.
Investing Activities
Cash used in investing activities in the first quarter of 2025 increased to $649.9 million compared with $413.0 million of cash used in the first quarter of 2024, primarily due to the acquisition of O3 Mining in the first quarter of 2025, higher capital expenditures and purchases of equity investments between periods.
In the first quarter of 2025, the Company purchased $68.1 million in equity securities and other investments compared with $24.0 million in the first quarter of 2024. The Company’s equity securities and other investments consist primarily of investments in common shares and share purchase warrants of entities in the mining industry.
Financing Activities
Cash used in financing activities of $183.0 million in the first quarter of 2025 was consistent with the first quarter of 2024.
The Company issued common shares for net proceeds of $61.8 million in the first quarter of 2025, compared with $16.8 million in the first quarter of 2024, attributable to issuances under the employee stock option plan, the incentive share purchase plan and the dividend reinvestment plan.

AGNICO EAGLE MINES LIMITED
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2025
During the first quarter of 2025, the Company repurchased 488,047 common shares for $50.0 million at an average price of $102.44 under the normal course issuer bid (“NCIB”). During the first quarter of 2024, the Company repurchased 375,000 common shares for $19.9 million at an average price of $52.99 under the NCIB. The Company intends to seek approval from the TSX to renew the NCIB for another year on substantially the same terms and intends to increase the limit of purchases under the NCIB to $1 billion of common shares.
On February 13, 2025, Agnico Eagle declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.40 per common share paid on March 14, 2025 to holders of record of the common shares of the Company as of February 28, 2025. Agnico Eagle has declared a cash dividend every year since 1983. In the first quarter of 2025, the Company paid dividends of $175.6 million compared to $157.3 million paid in the first quarter of 2024. Although the Company expects to continue paying dividends, future dividends will be at the discretion of the Board and will be subject to factors such as income, financial condition and capital requirements.
In the first quarter of 2025, the Company did not utilize its Credit Facility. In the first quarter of 2024, the Company drew down and repaid $600.0 million on its Credit Facility. As at March 31, 2025, the Company’s outstanding balance under the Credit Facility was nil. Credit Facility availability is reduced by outstanding letters of credit at that date, which were $23.5 million as at March 31, 2025, resulting in $1,976.5 million available for future drawdown.
The Company has six uncommitted letter of credit facilities with certain Canadian financial institutions (the “LC Facilities”). At March 31, 2025, amounts available under these letter of credit facilities are as follows; C$400.0 million, C$320.0 million, C$200.0 million, C$200.0 million. C$200.0 million and C$150.0 million. As at March 31, 2025, the aggregate undrawn face amount of letters of credit under the LC Facilities was $724.6 million. As at March 31, 2025, the Company has indemnity agreements with three companies for the issuance of surety bonds of which $325.7 million of such surety bonds have been issued under these agreements.
The Company was in compliance with all covenants contained in the Credit Facility, the LC Facilities, and the $1,150.0 million of its guaranteed senior unsecured notes as at March 31, 2025.
Risk Profile
The Company is subject to significant risks, including fluctuations in commodity prices, foreign exchange rates and other risks due to the inherent nature of the business of exploration, development and mining of properties with precious metals. Changes in economic conditions and volatile financial markets may have a significant impact on Agnico Eagle’s cost and availability of financing and overall liquidity. The volatility in gold prices directly affects Agnico Eagle’s revenues, earnings and cash flow. Volatile energy, commodity and consumables prices and currency exchange rates impact production costs. For a more comprehensive discussion of these and other risks, see “Risk Factors” in the AIF filed on the CSA’s SEDAR website and with the SEC as part of the Form 40-F.
Disclosure Controls and Procedures and Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (“ICFR”) and disclosure controls and procedures (“DC&P”).
ICFR is a framework designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with IFRS. Management has used the Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework) in order to assess the effectiveness of the Company’s ICFR.
DC&P form a broader framework designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in its annual and interim filings and other reports filed under securities legislation is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time frame specified in securities legislation and includes controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in its annual and interim filings and other reports submitted under securities legislation is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

AGNICO EAGLE MINES LIMITED
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2025
Together, the ICFR and DC&P frameworks provide internal control over financial reporting and disclosure. The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information which is required to be disclosed in the Company’s annual and interim filings and other reports filed under securities legislation is accumulated and communicated in a timely fashion. Due to their inherent limitations, the Company acknowledges that, no matter how well designed, ICFR and DC&P can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives and as such may not prevent or detect all misstatements. Further, the effectiveness of ICFR is subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may change.
There have been no significant changes in our internal controls during the three months ended March 31, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, internal control over financial reporting.
Non-GAAP Financial Performance Measures
This MD&A discloses certain financial performance measures and ratios, including adjusted net income, adjusted net income per share, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, free cash flow, free cash flow before changes in working capital, total cash costs per ounce (on both a by-product and co-product basis), minesite costs per tonne, all-in sustaining costs per ounce (on both a by-product and co-product basis), operating margin, sustaining capital expenditures, development capital expenditures, sustaining capitalized exploration, development capitalized exploration, that are not recognized measures or ratios under IFRS. These measures and ratios may not be comparable to similar measures or ratios reported by other gold producers. Non-GAAP financial performance measures and ratios should be considered together with other data prepared in accordance with IFRS.
Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Net Income Per Share
Adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share are calculated by adjusting the net income as recorded in the condensed interim consolidated statements of income for the effects of certain items that the Company believes are not reflective of the Company’s underlying performance for the reporting period. Adjusted net income is calculated by adjusting net income for items such as foreign currency translation gains or losses, realized and unrealized gains or losses on derivative financial instruments, severance and transaction costs related to acquisitions, revaluation gains and losses, environmental remediation, gains or losses on the disposal of assets, purchase price allocations to inventory, impairment loss charges and reversals, retroactive payments, and income and mining taxes adjustments. Adjusted net income per share is calculated by dividing adjusted net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding on a basic and diluted basis.
The Company believes that these generally accepted industry measures are useful to investors in that they allow for the evaluation of the results of continuing operations and in making comparisons between periods. Adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share are intended to provide investors with information about the Company’s continuing income generating capabilities from its core mining business, excluding the above adjustments, which the Company believes are not reflective of operational performance. Management uses this measure to, and believes it is useful to investors so they can, understand and monitor for the operating performance of the Company in conjunction with other data prepared in accordance with IFRS.
The following table sets out the calculation of adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
EBITDA is calculated by adjusting net income for finance costs, amortization of property, plant and mine development and income and mining tax expense line items as reported in the condensed interim consolidated statements of income.
Adjusted EBITDA removes the effects of certain items that the Company believes are not reflective of the Company’s underlying performance for the reporting period. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by adjusting the EBITDA calculation for items such as foreign currency translation gains or losses, realized and unrealized gains or losses on derivative financial instruments, severance and transaction costs related to acquisitions, revaluation gains and losses, environmental remediation, gains or losses on the disposal of assets, purchase price allocations to inventory, impairment loss charges and reversals, retroactive payments, and income and mining taxes adjustments.
The Company believes that these generally accepted industry measures are useful in that they allow for the evaluation of the cash generating capability of the Company to fund its working capital, capital expenditure and debt repayments. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are intended to provide investors with information about the Company’s continuing cash generating capability from its core mining business, excluding the above adjustments, which management believes are not reflective of operational performance. Management uses these measures to, and believes it is useful to investors so they can, understand and monitor the cash generating capability of the Company in conjunction with other data prepared in accordance with IFRS.

Free Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow before Changes in Non-Cash Components of Working Capital
Free cash flow is calculated by deducting additions to property, plant and mine development from the cash provided by operating activities line item as recorded in the condensed interim consolidated statements of cash flows.
Free cash flow before changes in non-cash components of working capital is calculated by excluding items such as the effect of changes in non-cash components of working capital from free cash flow, which includes income taxes, inventory, other current assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and interest payable.
The Company believes that these generally accepted industry measures are useful in that they allow for the evaluation of the Company’s ability to repay creditors and return cash to shareholders without relying on external sources of funding. Free cash flow and free cash flow before changes in non-cash components of working capital also provide investors with information about the Company’s financial position and its ability to generate cash to fund operational and capital requirements as well as return cash to shareholders. Management uses these measures in conjunction with other data prepared in accordance with IFRS to, and believes it is useful to investors so they can, understand and monitor the cash generating ability of the Company.

Total Cash Costs per Ounce and Minesite Costs per Tonne
Total cash costs per ounce is calculated on a per ounce of gold produced basis and is reported on both a by-product basis (deducting by-product metal revenues from production costs) and a co-product basis (without deducting by-product metal revenues). Total cash costs per ounce on a by-product basis is calculated by adjusting production costs as recorded in the condensed interim consolidated statements of income for by-product revenues, inventory production costs, the impact of purchase price allocation in connection with mergers and acquisitions on inventory accounting, realized gains and losses on hedges of production costs and other adjustments, which include the costs associated with a 5% in-kind royalty paid in respect of certain portions of Canadian Malartic, a 2% in-kind royalty paid in respect of Detour Lake, a 1.5% in-kind royalty paid in respect of Macassa, as well as smelting, refining and marketing charges and then dividing by the number of ounces of gold produced. Given the nature of the fair value adjustment on inventory related to mergers and acquisitions and the use of the total cash costs per ounce measures to reflect the cash generating capabilities of the Company’s operations, the calculation of total cash costs per ounce for Canadian Malartic have been adjusted for the effects of purchase price allocation. Investors should note that total cash costs per ounce is not reflective of all cash expenditures, as it does not include income tax payments, interest costs or dividend payments. Total cash costs per ounce on a co-product basis is calculated in the same manner as total cash costs per ounce on a by-product basis, except that no adjustment is made for by-product metal revenues. Accordingly, the calculation of total cash costs per ounce on a co-product basis does not reflect a reduction in production costs or smelting, refining and marketing charges associated with the production and sale of by-product metals.
Total cash costs per ounce is intended to provide investors with information about the cash-generating capabilities of the Company’s mining operations. Management also uses these measures to, and believes they are useful to investors so investors can, understand and monitor the performance of the Company’s mining operations. The Company believes that total cash costs per ounce is useful to help investors understand the costs associated with producing gold and the economics of gold mining. As market prices for gold are quoted on a per ounce basis, using the total cash costs per ounce on a by-product basis measure allows management and investors to assess a mine’s cash-generating capabilities at various gold prices. Management is aware, and investors should note, that these per ounce measures of performance can be affected by fluctuations in exchange rates and, in the case of total cash costs per ounce on a by-product basis, by-product metal prices. Management compensates for these inherent limitations by using, and investors should also consider using, these measures in conjunction with data prepared in accordance with IFRS and minesite costs per tonne as these measures are not necessarily indicative of operating costs or cash flow measures prepared in accordance with IFRS. Management also performs sensitivity analyses in order to quantify the effects of fluctuating metal prices and exchange rates.

AGNICO EAGLE MINES LIMITED
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2025
Agnico Eagle’s primary business is gold production and the focus of its current operations and future development is on maximizing returns from gold production, with other metal production being incidental to the gold production process. Accordingly, all metals other than gold are considered by-products.
Unless otherwise indicated, total cash costs per ounce is reported on a by-product basis. Total cash costs per ounce is reported on a by-product basis because (i) the majority of the Company’s revenues are from gold, (ii) the Company mines ore, which contains gold, silver, zinc, copper and other metals, (iii) it is not possible to specifically assign all costs to revenues from the gold, silver, zinc, copper and other metals the Company produces, (iv) it is a method used by management and the Board of Directors to monitor operations, and (v) many other gold producers disclose similar measures on a by-product rather than a co-product basis.
Minesite costs per tonne are calculated by adjusting production costs as recorded in the condensed interim consolidated statements of income for inventory production costs and other adjustments, and then dividing by tonnage of ore processed. As the total cash costs per ounce can be affected by fluctuations in by — product metal prices and foreign exchange rates, management believes that minesite costs per tonne is useful to investors in providing additional information regarding the performance of mining operations, eliminating the impact of varying production levels. Management also uses this measure to determine the economic viability of mining blocks. As each mining block is evaluated based on the net realizable value of each tonne mined, in order to be economically viable the estimated revenue on a per tonne basis must be in excess of the minesite costs per tonne. Management is aware, and investors should note, that this per tonne measure of performance can be affected by fluctuations in processing levels. This inherent limitation may be partially mitigated by using this measure in conjunction with production costs and other data prepared in accordance with IFRS.
The following table sets out the production costs per minesite for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024, as presented in the condensed interim consolidated statements of income in accordance with IFRS.

Notes:
(i)
Gold production for the three months ended March 31, 2025 excludes 1,811 ounces of payable production of gold at La India and 25 ounces of payable production of gold at Creston Mascota, which were produced from residual leaching.
(ii)
Under the Company’s revenue recognition policy, revenue from contracts with customers is recognized upon the transfer of control over metals sold to the customer. As the total cash costs per ounce are calculated on a production basis, an inventory adjustment is made to reflect the portion of production not yet recognized as revenue. Included in inventory adjustments for Canadian Malartic is $1.1 million associated with the fair value allocated to inventory on Canadian Malartic as part of the purchase price allocation from the acquisition, on March 31, 2023, of the 50% of Canadian Malartic that Agnico Eagle did not then hold.
(iii)
Relates to costs associated with a 5% in-kind royalty paid in respect of Canadian Malartic, a 2% in-kind royalty paid in respect of Detour Lake, a 1.5% in-kind royalty paid in respect of Macassa.

(iii)
La India’s cost calculations per tonne for the three months ended March 31, 2024 exclude approximately $16.0 million of production costs incurred during the period, following the cessation of mining activities at La India during the fourth quarter of 2023.
All-in Sustaining Costs per Ounce
All-in sustaining costs per ounce (also referred to as “AISC per ounce”) on a by-product basis is calculated as the aggregate of total cash costs on a by-product basis, sustaining capital expenditures (including capitalized exploration), general and administrative expenses (including stock options), lease payments related to sustaining assets and reclamation expenses, and then dividing by the number of ounces of gold produced. These additional costs reflect the additional expenditures that are required to be made to maintain current production levels. The AISC per ounce on a co-product basis is calculated in the same manner as the AISC per ounce on a by-product basis, except that the total cash costs on a co-product basis are used, meaning no adjustment is made for by-product metal revenues. Investors should note that AISC per ounce is not reflective of all cash expenditures as it does not include income tax payments, interest costs or dividend payments, nor does it include non-cash expenditures, such as depreciation and amortization. Unless otherwise indicated, all-in sustaining costs per ounce is reported on a by-product basis (see “Reconciliation of Production Costs to Total Cash Costs per Ounce by Mine” for a discussion of regarding the Company’s use of by-product basis reporting).

AGNICO EAGLE MINES LIMITED
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2025
Management believes that AISC per ounce is useful to investors as it reflects total sustaining expenditures of producing and selling an ounce of gold while maintaining current operations and, as such, provides useful information about operating performance. Management is aware, and investors should note, that these per ounce measures of performance can be affected by fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and, in the case of AISC per ounce on a by-product basis, by-product metal prices. Management compensates for these inherent limitations by using, and investors should also consider using, these measures in conjunction with data prepared in accordance with IFRS and minesite costs per tonne, as this measure is not necessarily indicative of operating costs or cash flow measures prepared in accordance with IFRS.
The Company follows the guidance on calculation of AISC per ounce released by the World Gold Council (“WGC”) in 2018. The WGC is a non-regulatory market development organization for the gold industry that has worked closely with its member companies to develop guidance in respect of relevant non-GAAP measures. Notwithstanding the Company’s adoption of the WGC’s guidance, AISC per ounce reported by the Company may not be comparable to data reported by other gold mining companies.
The following table sets out a reconciliation of production costs to all-in sustaining costs per ounce for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024 on both a by-product basis (deducting by-product metal revenues from production costs) and a co-product basis (without deducting by-product metal revenues).

Under the Company’s revenue recognition policy, revenue from contracts with customers is recognized upon the transfer of control over metals sold to the customer. As the total cash costs per ounce of gold produced are calculated on a production basis, an inventory adjustment is made to reflect the portion of production not yet recognized as revenue.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2025
Included in inventory adjustments for Canadian Malartic is $1.1 million associated with the fair value allocated to inventory on Canadian Malartic as part of the purchase price allocation from the acquisition, on March 31, 2023, of the 50% of Canadian Malartic that Agnico Eagle did not then hold.
(iii)

(iv)
Other adjustments consists of smelting, refining and marketing charges to production costs.
(v)
Sustaining leases are lease payments related to sustaining assets.
Operating Margin
Operating margin is calculated by deducting production costs from revenue from mining operations. In order to reconcile operating margin to net income as recorded in the condensed interim consolidated financial statements, the Company adds the following items to the operating margin: income and mining taxes expense; other expenses (income); care and maintenance expenses; foreign currency translation (gain) loss; environmental remediation costs; gain (loss) on derivative financial instruments; finance costs; general and administrative expenses; amortization of property, plant and mine development; exploration and corporate development expenses; and revaluation gain and impairment losses (reversals). The Company believes that operating margin is a useful measure to investors as it reflects the operating performance of its individual mines associated with the ongoing production and sale of gold and by-product metals without allocating Company-wide overhead, including exploration and corporate development expenses, amortization of property, plant and mine development, general and administrative expenses, finance costs, gain and losses on derivative financial instruments, environmental remediation costs, foreign currency translation gains and losses, other expenses and income and mining tax expenses. Management uses this measure internally to plan and forecast future operating results. Management believes this measure is useful to investors as it provides them with additional information about the Company’s underlying operating results and should be evaluated in conjunction with other data prepared in accordance with IFRS. For a reconciliation of operating margin to revenue from operations, see “Summary of Operations Key Performance Indicators”.
Capital Expenditures
Capital expenditures are calculated by deducting working capital adjustments from additions to property, plant and mine development per the condensed interim consolidated statements of cash flows.
Capital expenditures are classified into sustaining capital expenditures, sustaining capitalized exploration, development capital expenditures and development capitalized exploration. Sustaining capital expenditures and sustaining capitalized exploration are expenditures incurred during the production phase to sustain and maintain existing assets so they can achieve constant expected levels of production from which the Company will derive economic benefits. Sustaining capital expenditures and sustaining capitalized exploration include expenditure for assets to retain their existing productive capacity as well as to enhance performance and reliability of the operations. Development capital expenditures and development capitalized exploration represent the spending at new projects and/or expenditures at existing operations that are undertaken with the intention to increase production levels or mine life above the current plans. Management uses these measures in the capital allocation process and to assess the effectiveness of its investments. Management believes these measures are useful so investors can assess the purpose and effectiveness of the capital expenditures split between sustaining and development in each reporting period. The classification between sustaining and development capital expenditures does not have a standardized definition in accordance with IFRS and other companies may classify expenditures in a different manner.
The following table sets out a reconciliation of sustaining capital expenditures, sustaining capitalized exploration, development capital expenditures and development capitalized exploration to the additions to property, plant and mine development per the condensed interim consolidated statements of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024.

AGNICO EAGLE MINES LIMITED
NOTES TO CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(thousands of United States dollars, except share and per share amounts, unless otherwise indicated)
(Unaudited)
March 31, 2025
1.
CORPORATE INFORMATION
Agnico Eagle Mines Limited (“Agnico Eagle” or the “Company”) is principally engaged in the production and sale of gold, as well as related activities such as exploration and mine development. The Company’s mining operations are located in Canada, Australia, Finland and Mexico and the Company has exploration activities in Canada, Europe, Latin America, Australia and the United States. Agnico Eagle is a public company incorporated under the laws of the Province of Ontario, Canada with its head and registered office located at 145 King Street East, Suite 400, Toronto, Ontario, M5C 2Y7. The Company’s common shares are listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) and the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”). Agnico Eagle sells its gold production into the world market.
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements were authorized for issuance by the Board of Directors of the Company on April 24, 2025.
2.
BASIS OF PREPARATION
Unless otherwise stated, references to “LaRonde”, “Canadian Malartic”, “Meadowbank” and “Goldex” are to the Company’s operations at the LaRonde complex, the Canadian Malartic complex, the Meadowbank complex and the Goldex complex, respectively. The LaRonde complex consists of the mining, milling and processing operations at the LaRonde mine and the mining operations at the LaRonde Zone 5 mine (“LZ5”). The Canadian Malartic complex consists of the mining, milling and processing operations at the Canadian Malartic mine and the mining operations at the Odyssey mine. The Meadowbank complex consists of the milling and processing operations at the Meadowbank mine and the Amaruq mine. The Goldex complex consists of the mining, milling and processing operations at the Goldex mine and the mining operations at the Akasaba West open pit mine. References to other operations are to the relevant mines, projects or properties, as applicable.
A)
Statement of Compliance
The accompanying condensed interim consolidated financial statements of Agnico Eagle have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 Interim Financial Reporting (“IAS 34”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) in United States (“US”) dollars. These condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not include all of the disclosures required by IFRS accounting standards (“IFRS”) for annual audited consolidated financial statements.
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s 2024 annual audited consolidated financial statements, including the accounting policies and notes thereto, included in the Annual Report and Form 40-F for the year ended December 31, 2024, which were prepared in accordance with IFRS.
In the opinion of management, these condensed interim consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which consist of normal and recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position as at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 and the results of operations and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024.
Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2025.
B)
Basis of Presentation
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements were prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost method except for certain financial assets and liabilities which are measured at fair value. The condensed interim consolidated financial statements are presented in US dollars and all values are rounded to the nearest thousand, except where otherwise indicated.
3.
MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements follow the same material accounting policies and methods of their application as the December 31, 2024 annual audited consolidated financial statements.
New Accounting Standards Issued But Not Yet Adopted
In April 2024, the IASB issued IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in the Financial Statements (“IFRS 18”) replacing IAS 1. IFRS 18 introduces new requirements for presentation within the statement of profit or loss, including specified totals and subtotals. IFRS 18 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027, and is to be applied retrospectively, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of the standard on its consolidated financial statements.

SIGNIFICANT JUDGMENTS, ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS
The preparation of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed interim consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Management believes that the estimates used in the preparation of the condensed interim consolidated financial statements are reasonable; however, actual results may differ materially from these estimates. The areas involving significant judgments, estimates and assumptions have been set out in Note 4 to the Company’s annual audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024.

On February 3, 2025, the Company, indirectly through a wholly-owned subsidiary, took up and acquired an additional 4,360,806 O3 Shares during the extension period of the O3 Offer, resulting in an aggregate of 114,785,237 O3 Shares being taken up and acquired under the O3 Offer, representing approximately 95.6% of the outstanding O3 Shares on an undiluted basis, for aggregate consideration of C$191.7 million. On March 18, 2025, O3 Mining and one of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries amalgamated under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario) which resulted in the Company owning 100% of the O3 Shares.
The acquisition was accounted for by the Company as an asset acquisition and transaction costs associated with the acquisition totaling $2.1 million are capitalized to the mining properties acquired separately from the purchase price allocation set out below. The aggregate purchase consideration for the acquired assets, net of the assumed liabilities is as follows:
Cash paid for acquisition
$ 138,272
Total purchase price to allocate
$ 138,272
In an asset acquisition, the purchase consideration is allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their relative fair values. The following table sets out the allocation of the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the condensed interim consolidated financial statements are categorized within the fair value hierarchy, described, as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole:
Level 1 — Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2 — Quoted prices in markets that are not active or inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and
Level 3 — Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (supported by little or no market activity).

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT (Continued)
The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs and the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs.
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
For items that are recognized at fair value on a recurring basis, the Company determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by reassessing their classification at the end of each reporting period.
During the three months ended March 31, 2025, there were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements, and no transfers into or out of Level 3 fair value measurements.
The fair values of cash and cash equivalents and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their carrying values due to their short-term nature.
The following table sets out the Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as at March 31, 2025 using the fair value hierarchy:

Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities Not Measured and Recognized at Fair Value
Long-term debt is recorded on the condensed interim consolidated balance sheets at March 31, 2025 at amortized cost. The fair value of long-term debt is presented in Note 10 of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements.
The committed subscription proceeds for the San Nicolás project are recorded on the condensed interim consolidated balance sheets at March 31, 2025 at amortized cost. The fair value of the San Nicolás liability is determined by discounting the minimum unavoidable obligation under the joint venture shareholders’ agreement between Agnico Eagle and Teck at a discount rate that reflects the Company’s credit rating. The fair value of the San Nicolás liability is not materially different from the carrying amount as the difference between the discount rate used at the initial recognition date and the current market rates at March 31, 2025 is not material.
Non-current loans receivable and other receivables are included in the other assets line item in the condensed interim consolidated balance sheets at amortized cost. The fair value of loans and other receivables is the present value of future cash inflows discounted at a market interest rate. The fair value of these financial assets is not materially different from the carrying amounts as at March 31, 2025 (Note 7B).

Diluted net income per share has been calculated using the treasury stock method. In applying the treasury stock method, outstanding employee stock options with an exercise price greater than the average quoted market price of the common shares for the period outstanding are not included in the calculation of diluted net income per share as the impact would be anti-dilutive.
For the three months ended March 31, 2025, nil (2024 — 4,271,419) employee stock options were excluded from the calculation of diluted net income per share as their impact would have been anti-dilutive.
NCIB
During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company repurchased 488,047 common shares for $50.0 million at an average price of $102.44 as part of its NCIB program (2024 — 375,000 common shares for $19.9 million at an average price of $52.99). During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company cancelled 396,060 (2024 — 375,000) shares at a book value of $14.8 million (2024 — $13.9 million).

DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Currency Risk Management
The Company uses foreign exchange economic hedges to reduce the variability in expected future cash flows arising from changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The Company is primarily exposed to currency fluctuations relative to the US dollar as a significant portion of the Company’s operating costs and capital expenditures are denominated in foreign currencies, primarily the Canadian dollar, the Australian dollar, the Euro and the Mexican peso.
These potential currency fluctuations increase the volatility of, and could have a significant impact on, the Company’s production costs and capital expenditures. The economic hedges relate to a portion of the foreign currency denominated cash outflows arising from foreign currency denominated expenditures.
As at March 31, 2025, the Company had outstanding derivative contracts related to $4,108.4 million of 2025 and 2026 expenditures (December 31, 2024 — $4,006.5 million). The Company recognized mark-to-market adjustments in the (gain) loss on derivative financial instruments line item in the condensed interim consolidated statements of income. The Company did not apply hedge accounting to these arrangements.
Mark-to-market gains and losses related to foreign exchange derivative financial instruments are recorded at fair value based on broker-dealer quotations corroborated by option pricing models that utilize period-end forward pricing of the applicable foreign currency to calculate fair value.
The Company’s other foreign currency derivative strategies in 2025 and 2024 consisted mainly of writing US dollar call options with short maturities to generate premiums that would, in essence, enhance the spot transaction rate received when exchanging US dollars for foreign currencies. All of these derivative transactions expired prior to period-end such that no derivatives were outstanding as at March 31, 2025 or December 31, 2024. The call option premiums were recognized in the (gain) loss on derivative financial instruments line item in the condensed interim consolidated statements of income.
Commodity Price Risk Management
To mitigate the risks associated with fluctuating diesel fuel prices, the Company uses derivative financial instruments as economic hedges of the price risk on a portion of diesel fuel costs associated primarily with its Canadian operations’ diesel fuel exposure. There were derivative financial instruments outstanding as at March 31, 2025 relating to 26.0 million gallons of heating oil (December 31, 2024 — 28.0 million). The related mark-to-market adjustments prior to settlement were recognized in the (gain) loss on derivative financial instruments line item in the condensed interim consolidated statements of income. The Company did not apply hedge accounting to these arrangements.
