First Quarter 2025 Production and Costs

Production and Cost Results Summary

*Gold production for the three months ended March 31, 2025 excludes payable gold production at La India and Creston Mascota of 1,811 and 25 ounces, respectively, which were produced from residual leaching.

** Production costs per ounce, total cash costs per ounce and AISC per ounce are reported on a per ounce of gold produced basis.

Gold Production

Gold production decreased slightly in the first quarter of 2025 when compared to the prior-year period primarily due to lower production at Canadian Malartic, partially offset by higher production at LaRonde and Macassa. Canadian Malartic performed better-than-planned in the first quarter of 2025 – the decrease in gold production when compared to the prior-year period was primarily due to lower gold grades at the Barnat pit.

Production Costs per Ounce

Production costs per ounce decreased in the first quarter of 2025 when compared to the prior-year period primarily due to higher gold production at LaRonde and Macassa, the timing of inventory sales at LaRonde and Meliadine and the weakening Canadian dollar relative to the U.S. dollar between periods, partially offset by higher royalties arising from higher gold prices and lower gold production at Canadian Malartic.

Total Cash Costs per Ounce

Total cash costs per ounce increased slightly in the first quarter of 2025 when compared to the prior-year period due to higher royalties arising from higher gold prices and lower gold production at Canadian Malartic, partially offset by higher gold production at LaRonde and Macassa and the impact of a weakening Canadian dollar relative to the U.S. dollar between periods. The Company still expects total cash costs per ounce for the full year 2025 to be in the range of $915 to $965.

AISC per Ounce

AISC per ounce decreased in the first quarter of 2025 when compared to the prior-year period due to lower sustaining capital expenditures primarily related to lower deferred development costs at Detour Lake, partially offset by higher general and administrative expenses.

AISC per ounce in the first quarter of 2025 was lower than planned primarily due to the deferral of certain sustaining capital expenditures at Detour Lake and Canadian Malartic until later in 2025. AISC per ounce is expected to be higher in the remainder of 2025 and the Company still expects consolidated AISC per ounce for the full year 2025 to be in the range of $1,250 to $1,300.

First Quarter 2025 Financial Results

Financial Results Summary

Net Income

Net income increased in the first quarter of 2025 when compared to the prior-year period primarily due to record operating margins from higher realized gold prices and lower production costs, partially offset by lower gold sales and higher income and mining taxes expense in the current period.

Net income in the first quarter of 2025 of $815 million ($1.62 per share) includes the following items (net of tax): net gains on derivative financial instruments and other investments of $46 million ($0.09 per share), foreign currency translation gains on deferred tax liabilities and other tax adjustments of $11 million ($0.02 per share), net asset disposal losses of $5 million ($0.01 per share), and reclamation and other adjustments totaling $7 million ($0.01 per share). Excluding these items results in adjusted net income of $770 million or $1.53 per share for the first quarter of 2025.

6 Realized gold price is calculated as gold revenues from mining operations divided by the number of ounces sold.

7 "EBITDA" means earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization. EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are non GAAP measur es or ratios that are not standardized financial measures under IFRS. For a description of the composition and usefulness of these non GAAP measures and a reconciliation to net income see "Note Regarding Certain Measures of Performance" below.

8 Includes c apitalized exploration. Capital expenditures is a non GAAP measure that is not a standardized financial measure under IFRS. For a discussion of the composition and usefulness of this non GAAP measure and a reconciliation to additions to property, plant and mine development as set out in the consolidated statements of cash flows, see "Note Regarding Certain Measures of Performance" below.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA increased in the first quarter of 2025 when compared to the prior-year period primarily due to higher operating margins, partially offset by lower gold sales and higher general and administrative expenses.

Cash Provided by Operating Activities

Cash provided by operating activities and cash provided by operating activities before changes in non-cash components of working capital both increased in the first quarter of 2025 when compared to the prior-year period primarily due to higher operating margins, partially offset by lower gold sales and higher income and mining taxes expense in the current period.

Free Cash Flow Before Changes in Non-Cash Components of Working Capital

Free cash flow before changes in non-cash components of working capital was a record in the first quarter of 2025 and increased when compared to the prior-year period primarily due to the reasons described above with respect to cash provided by operating activities, partially offset by higher capital expenditures.

Capital Expenditures

The following table sets out a summary of capital expenditures, in each case broken down as between sustaining capital expenditures and development capital expenditures, and capitalized exploration by mine in the first quarter of 2025.

Summary of Capital Expenditures*

(thousands)

*Capital expenditures is a non-GAAP measure that is not a standardized financial measure under IFRS. For a discussion of the composition and usefulness of this non-GAAP measure and a reconciliation to additions to property, plant and mine development as set out in the consolidated statements of cash flows, see "Note Regarding Certain Measures of Performance" below.

**Excludes capitalized exploration

2025 Guidance Reiterated

The Company is well positioned to achieve its 2025 gold production guidance of approximately 3.3 to 3.5 million ounces, its 2025 total cash costs per ounce guidance of $915 to $965 and its 2025 AISC per ounce guidance of $1,250 to $1,300.

Total expected capital expenditures (excluding capitalized exploration) for 2025 are still estimated to be between $1.75 billion to $1.95 billion.

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. The costs guidance provided in the Company's news release dated February 13, 2025 does not include any potential impact from such tariffs or trade disputes.

Net Debt Reduced Through Continued Strong Free Cash Flow Generation

Cash and cash equivalents increased by $212 million when compared to the prior quarter primarily due to higher cash provided by operating activities before changes in non-cash components of working capital as a result of higher operating margins from higher realized gold prices and lower production costs as well as less cash used in financing activities as $325 million of debt was repaid in the prior quarter, partially offset by unfavourable changes in non-cash components of working capital in the current period which includes a cash tax payment related to the 2024 taxation year of approximately $400 million.

As at March 31, 2025, the Company's total long-term debt was $1,143 million, consistent with the prior quarter. No amounts were outstanding under the Company's unsecured revolving bank credit facility as at March 31, 2025 and available liquidity under the facility remained at approximately $2 billion, not including the uncommitted $1 billion accordion feature. 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.

Net debt decreased in the first quarter of 2025 when compared to the prior quarter due to the increase in cash and cash equivalents of $212 million. The following table sets out the calculation of net debt, which was reduced to $5 million in the first quarter of 2025.

Net Debt Summary

(millions)

Hedges

Based on the Company's currency assumptions used for 2025 cost estimates: approximately 57% of the Company's remaining estimated Canadian dollar exposure for 2025 is hedged at an average floor price providing protection in respect of exchange rate movements below 1.37 C$/US$, while allowing for participation in respect of exchange rate movements up to an average of 1.43 C$/US$, approximately 27% of the Company's remaining estimated Euro exposure for 2025 is hedged at an average floor price providing protection in respect of exchange rate movements above 1.09 US$/EUR, while allowing for participation in respect of exchange rate movements down to an average of 1.05 US$/EUR, approximately 60% of the Company's remaining estimated Australian dollar exposure for 2025 is hedged at an average floor price providing protection in respect of exchange rate movements below 1.50 A$/US$, while allowing for participation in respect of exchange rate movements up to an average of 1.70 A$/US$, and approximately 45% of the Company's remaining estimated Mexican peso exposure for 2025 is hedged at an average floor price providing protection in respect of exchange rate movements below 19.50 MXP/US$, while allowing for participation in respect of exchange rate movements up to an average of 24.00 MXP/US$. The Company's full year 2025 cost guidance is based on assumed exchange rates of 1.38 C$/US$, 1.08 US$/EUR, 1.50 A$/US$ and 20.00 MXP/US$.

Including the diesel purchased for the Company's Nunavut operations that was delivered as part of the 2024 sealift, approximately 64% of the Company's remaining estimated diesel exposure for 2025 is hedged at an average benchmark price of $0.72 per litre (excluding transportation and taxes), which is expected to continue to reduce the Company's exposure to diesel price volatility for 2025. The Company's full year 2025 cost guidance is based on an assumed diesel benchmark price of $0.78 per litre (excluding transportation and taxes).

The Company will continue to monitor market conditions and anticipates continuing to opportunistically add to its operating currency and diesel hedges to strategically support its key input costs for the balance of 2025. Current hedging positions are not factored into 2025 or future guidance.

Update on Key Value Drivers and Pipeline Projects

Canadian Malartic

The Company continues to advance the transition to underground mining with the construction of the Odyssey mine and work on several opportunities with a vision to potentially grow annual production to one million ounces per year in the 2030s. These opportunities include the potential for a second shaft at Odyssey, the development of a satellite open pit at Marban and the development of the Wasamac underground project. Marban and Wasamac are located approximately 12 kilometres and 100 kilometres from the Canadian Malartic mill, respectively.

Odyssey

In the first quarter of 2025, ramp development continued to progress ahead of schedule. The ramp towards the mid-shaft loading station reached a depth of 1,012 metres as at March 31, 2025 and is expected to connect to the mid-shaft loading station at level 102 in the third quarter of 2025. The main ramp towards the shaft bottom reached a depth of 965 metres.

In the first quarter of 2025, the shaft reached level 111 at a depth of 1,113 metres on schedule. Excavation of the mid-shaft loading station was initiated and is expected to continue through the remainder of 2025. The level 111 station was excavated and is being prepared for steel installation, while excavation of the loading pocket at level 112 commenced.

In the first quarter of 2025, construction progressed on schedule and on budget. Construction of the temporary loading station at level 64 and the commissioning of the service hoist were completed. The service hoist, which will support the transportation of people, materials and waste, is expected to ramp-up to its design capacity of 3,500 tonnes per day ("tpd") in the second quarter of 2025. At the main hoist building, the concrete foundation for the production hoist was poured. The structural steel and exterior cladding of the main office and service building was completed in the quarter and work shifted to the interior and to the mechanical and electrical installation. Construction of the main office building is expected to be completed by the first quarter of 2026.

Exploration drilling ramped up at Odyssey during the first quarter of 2025. Thirteen underground rigs and fourteen surface rigs drilled a total of 53,376 metres that targeted the eastern and depth extensions of the East Gouldie deposit, the new Eclipse zone and portions of the Odyssey deposit near the Odyssey shaft. Regional exploration continued to investigate several targets along the 16-kilometre long land package around the mine.

Drilling into the lower eastern extension of the East Gouldie deposit at the edge of the current mineralized envelope was highlighted by hole MEX24-322WAZ intersecting 5.3 g/t gold over 27.4 metres at 1,840 metres depth, including 9.9 g/t gold over 8.5 metres at 1,842 metres depth, and hole MEX24-322WA intersecting 6.6 g/t gold over 17.7 metres at 1,886 metres depth. Follow-up drilling at a 300 metre drill spacing is underway to further assess the eastward potential of the deposit between approximately 1,700 and 2,000 metres depth.

The drilling program is also investigating the interpreted junction at depth of the East Gouldie mineralized envelope and the Sladen Fault in what has been named the Keel structure, with hole UGEG-075-038 intersecting 2.2 g/t gold over 58.2 metres at 1,948 metres depth within the Keel structure, including 3.2 g/t gold over 21.7 metres at 1,976 metres depth, approximately 200 metres below the current planned maximum depth of the Odyssey shaft. Additional drilling is underway to further test the north-south and east-west continuities of the Keel structure.

Follow-up drilling into the newly discovered, sub-parallel Eclipse zone, which is located 50 to 100 metres north of the eastern portion of the East Gouldie mineralized corridor and extends from approximately 1,200 metres to 1,900 metres below surface, was highlighted by hole MEX24-325Z intersecting 3.7 g/t gold over 59.7 metres at 1,413 metres depth, including 6.3 g/t gold over 6.0 metres at 1,384 metres depth and 7.8 g/t gold over 7.8 metres at 1,398 metres depth.

Underground conversion drilling into the upper eastern extension of the East Gouldie deposit was highlighted by hole UGEG-071-009 intersecting 3.7 g/t gold over 17.3 metres at 766 metres depth. The Company believes this area has the potential to add indicated mineral resources and potentially mineral reserves to East Gouldie by year-end.

Selected recent drill intersections from Odyssey are set out in the composite longitudinal section below and in Appendix A.

[Odyssey – Composite Cross and Longitudinal Sections]

Marban

On March 18, 2025, the Company completed the acquisition of O3 Mining, consolidating the Marban deposit with the Canadian Malartic property, The Marban deposit is located approximately 13 kilometres northeast of the Canadian Malartic mill. As part of the Company's "fill-the-mill" strategy, additional funding of $5.5 million has been allocated for a first phase of exploration in 2025 that will include 24,000 metres of drilling at the Marban deposit to extend the areas of known mineralization with a focus on mineral reserve and mineral resource expansion. The Marban project is an advanced exploration project that could potentially support an open pit mining operation similar to the Barnat open pit operations at Canadian Malartic.

Detour Lake

In the first quarter of 2025, the Company advanced the construction of the temporary infrastructure for the Detour Lake underground project and completed the excavation of the overburden. The contractor for the excavation of the exploration ramp was selected and started to mobilize. The permit to take water was received in April 2025 and excavation of the ramp is expected to commence in the second quarter of 2025.

Exploration drilling at Detour Lake during the first quarter of 2025 totalled 46,900 metres of a planned 168,500 metres in 2025. The exploration program includes infill drilling into the high-grade corridor at underground depths in the West Pit zone and infill drilling into the West Extension zone at underground depths west of the West Pit mineral resources and next to the planned exploration ramp for the underground project. These results are expected to further strengthen the mineralization model supporting the underground project west of and under the open pit at Detour Lake.

The drilling into the high-grade corridor in the West Pit zone during the first quarter further defined the high-grade domains that could potentially be mined earlier in the underground project within the larger lower grade envelope and continued to validate the current geological interpretation of the high-grade corridor. Highlights included: hole DLM25-1055 intersecting 8.0 g/t gold over 77.9 metres at 521 metres depth and 3.3 g/t gold over 23.4 metres at 601 metres depth; hole DLM25-1061 intersecting 27.4 g/t gold over 14.5 metres at 390 metres depth and 1.5 g/t gold over 85.3 metres at 583 metres depth; and hole DLM24-1034 intersecting 4.5 g/t gold over 48.9 metres at 575 metres depth and 12.2 g/t gold over 2.8 metres at 699 metres depth.

Drilling into the West Extension zone in the western portion of current underground mineral resources near the planned ramp further confirmed the grades and continuity of mineralization in the western plunge of the deposit, with first quarter highlights that include hole DLM24-1029 intersecting 3.0 g/t gold over 44.5 metres at 585 metres depth and hole DLM25-1065 intersecting 3.9 g/t gold over 17.6 metres at 624 metres depth.

Selected recent drill intersections from Detour Lake are set out in the composite longitudinal section below and in Appendix A.

[Detour Lake – Composite Longitudinal Section]

Upper Beaver

A positive internal evaluation was completed in June 2024 for a standalone mine and mill scenario at Upper Beaver (see the Company's news release dated July 31, 2024).

In the first quarter of 2025, installation of the structural steel for the exploration shaft head frame commenced. At the hoist room, the steel structure and cladding were completed during the quarter. Sinking of the exploration shaft is expected to commence in the fourth quarter of 2025.

Excavation of the box cut for the ramp portal was completed during the quarter and excavation of the exploration ramp is expected to commence in the fourth quarter of 2025. The structure of the final water treatment plant was erected, with the installation of cladding and insulation currently underway. The water treatment plant is expected to be completed and commissioned in the third quarter of 2025.

Hope Bay

In the first quarter of 2025, the Company completed the site preparation for excavation of the Naartok East exploration ramp at Madrid, including construction of a dome and commissioning of electrical and compressed air systems. Excavation of the ramp progressed on schedule, with 203 metres of advance completed as at March 31, 2025. The 2.1-kilometre exploration ramp is expected to be developed to a depth of 100 metres to facilitate infill and expansion drilling along the Madrid zones. The Company commenced dismantling the existing mill in preparation for the processing circuit contemplated in the ongoing technical evaluation. The flotation cells, the thickener and the reagent area were removed during the quarter and the deconstruction of the primary and secondary grinding circuits is ongoing.

Exploration drilling at Hope Bay during the first quarter of 2025 totalled 29,450 metres with a focus on mineral resource expansion and conversion of the Patch 7 and Suluk zones within the Madrid deposit as a follow-up to the exploration success at Patch 7 during 2024.

Results continued to demonstrate continuity within the known zones at Madrid and support the potential for mineral resource expansion at depth and along strike.

Highlights included: hole HBM25-280 intersecting 24.1 g/t gold over 9.5 metres at 636 metres depth within the gap area between the Patch 7 and Suluk zones, demonstrating potential continuity between previously released drill hole HBM23-140 (12.7 g/t gold over 4.6 metres at 677 metres depth) and hole HBM24-183 (14.1 g/t gold over 5.0 metres at 577 metres depth).

Further south and at shallow depths in Patch 7, hole HBM25-290 intersected 11.7 g/t gold over 4.6 metres at 172 metres depth and hole HBM25-301 intersected 19.9 g/t gold over 4.2 metres at 244 metres depth.

Selected recent drill intersections from the Madrid deposit are set out in the composite longitudinal section below and in Appendix A.

[Madrid Deposit at Hope Bay – Composite Longitudinal Section]

Both land-based and ice-based exploration drilling are ongoing at Madrid as part of the 110,000 metre drill program budgeted for Hope Bay in 2025. By mid-year, the drilling program is expected to be further supported by the completion of the extension of the gravel track that runs south alongside Patch Lake and the trend of gold mineralization. The completed track infrastructure is expected to reduce dependence on helicopter support going forward, reduce costs and improve productivity.

San Nicolás Copper Project (50/50 joint venture with Teck Resources Limited)

In the first quarter of 2025, Minas de San Nicolás continued working on a feasibility study, with completion expected in the second half of 2025. Project approval is expected to follow, subject to receipt of permits and the results of the feasibility study.

Note Regarding Certain Measures of Performance

This news release discloses certain financial performance measures and ratios, including "total cash costs per ounce", "minesite costs per tonne", "all-in sustaining costs per ounce" (or "AISC per ounce"), "adjusted net income", "adjusted net income per share", "cash provided by operating activities before changes in non-cash components of working capital", "cash provided by operating activities before changes in non-cash components of working capital per share", "EBITDA" which means earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, "adjusted EBITDA", "free cash flow", "free cash flow before changes in non-cash components of working capital", "operating margin", "sustaining capital expenditures", "development capital expenditures", "sustaining capitalized exploration", "development capitalized exploration" and "net debt", as well as, for certain of these measures their related per share ratios that are not standardized measures under IFRS. These measures and ratios may not be comparable to similar measures and ratios reported by other gold producers and should be considered together with other data prepared in accordance with IFRS. See below for a reconciliation of these measures to the most directly comparable financial information reported in the condensed interim consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS.

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'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.

Total Production Costs by Mine

The following tables set out a reconciliation of total cash costs per ounce (on both a by-product basis and co-product basis) and minesite costs per tonne to production costs for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024, exclusive of amortization, as presented in the condensed interim consolidated statements of income in accordance with IFRS.

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).

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).

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.

(iv) Other adjustments consists of smelting, refining and marketing charges to production costs.

(v) Sustaining leases are lease payments related to sustaining assets.  

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 a reconciliation of net income per the condensed interim consolidated statements of income to adjusted net income for the three months ended March 31, 2025, and March 31, 2024.

Notes:

(i) Relates to the Company's ownership percentage of an impairment loss recorded by an associate.

(ii) Income and mining taxes adjustments reflect items such as foreign currency translation recorded to the income and mining taxes expense, the impact of income and mining taxes on adjusted items, recognition of previously unrecognized capital losses, the result of income and mining taxes audits, impact of tax law changes and adjustments to prior period tax filings.  

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.

The following table sets out a reconciliation of net income per the condensed interim consolidated statements of income to EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2025, and March 31, 2024.

Notes:

(i) Relates to the Company's ownership percentage of an impairment loss recorded by an associate.

Cash provided by operating activities before changes in non-cash components of working capital and its per share ratio

Cash provided by operating activities before changes in non-cash components of working capital is calculated by adjusting the cash provided by operating activities as shown in the condensed interim consolidated statements of cash flows for the effects of changes in non-cash components of working capital such as income taxes, inventories, other current assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and interest payable. The per share ratio is calculated by dividing cash provided by operating activities before changes in non-cash components of working capital by the weighted average number of shares outstanding on a basic basis. The Company believes that changes in working capital can be volatile due to numerous factors, including the timing of payments. Management uses these measures to, and believes they are useful to investors so they can, assess the underlying operating cash flow performance and future operating cash flow generating capabilities of the Company in conjunction with other data prepared in accordance with IFRS. A reconciliation of these measures to the nearest IFRS measure is provided below.

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.

The following table sets out a reconciliation of cash provided by operating activities per the condensed interim consolidated statements of cash flows to free cash flow and free cash flow before changes in non-cash components of working capital and to cash provided by operating activities before changes in non-cash components of working capital for the three months ended March 31, 2025, and March 31, 2024.

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.

Net debt

Net debt is calculated by adjusting the total of the current portion of long-term debt and non-current long-term debt as recorded on the condensed interim consolidated balance sheets for deferred financing costs and cash and cash equivalents. Management believes the measure of net debt is useful to help investors to determine the Company's overall debt position and to evaluate the future debt capacity of the Company.

The following table sets out a reconciliation of long-term debt per the condensed interim consolidated balance sheets to net debt as at March 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024.

Forward-Looking Non-GAAP Measures

This news release also contains information as to estimated future total cash costs per ounce and AISC per ounce. The estimates are based upon the total cash costs per ounce and AISC per ounce 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 above, 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.
