2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

Statement of Compliance

 

These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 – Interim Financial Reporting under IFRS Accounting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not contain all of the information required for full annual consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s December 31, 2024, annual consolidated financial statements, which were prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards as issued by the IASB.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

These consolidated financial statements are expressed in US dollars and have been prepared on a historical cost basis except for financial instruments that have been measured at fair value. In addition, these consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting on a going concern basis. The accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently to all periods presented in these consolidated financial statements as if the policies have always been in effect.

 

Foreign Currency Translation

 

Foreign currency transactions

 

Transactions in currencies other than the functional currency are recorded at the rates of exchange prevailing on the dates of the transactions. At each financial position reporting date, monetary assets and liabilities that are denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the rates prevailing at the date of the statement of financial position. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not re-translated.

 

Foreign operations

 

Subsidiaries that have functional currencies other than the US dollar translate their statement of operations items at the average rate during the year. Assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rates prevailing at the end of each reporting period. Exchange rate variations resulting from the retranslation at the closing rate of the net investment in these subsidiaries, together with differences between their statement of operations items translated at actual and average rates, are recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). On disposition or partial disposition of a foreign operation, the cumulative amount of related exchange difference is recognized in the statement of operations.

Significant Accounting Judgments and Estimates

 

The Company’s management makes judgments in its process of applying the Company’s accounting policies to the preparation of its consolidated financial statements. In addition, the preparation of financial data requires that the Company’s management make assumptions and estimates of the impacts on the carrying amounts of the Company’s assets and liabilities at the end of the reporting period from uncertain future events and on the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates as the estimation process is inherently uncertain. Estimates are reviewed on an ongoing basis based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant under the circumstances. Revisions to estimates and the resulting impacts on the carrying amounts of the Company’s assets and liabilities are accounted for prospectively.

 

The critical judgments and estimates applied in the preparation of the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2025, are consistent with those applied and disclosed in Note 2 to the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Option Agreement – Silver Wolf Exploration Ltd. (“Silver Wolf”)

 

On March 11, 2021, the Company entered into an option agreement to grant Silver Wolf the exclusive right to acquire a 100% interest in the Ana Maria and El Laberinto properties in Mexico (the “Option Agreement”).

 

All exploration expenditure requirements on the properties have been met as of June 30, 2025, and Silver Wolf is in compliance with the terms of the Option Agreement as of June 30, 2025. As of June 30, 2025, the final milestone payments and the transfer of title of the claims comprising the properties remain outstanding.

 

The Option Agreement between the Company and Silver Wolf is considered a related party transaction as the two companies have directors in common.

 

Unification La Platosa properties

 

The Unification La Platosa properties, consisting of three leased concessions in addition to the leased concessions situated within the Avino mine area property near the towns of Panuco de Coronado and San Jose de Avino and surrounding the Avino Mine.

 

In February 2012, the Company’s wholly-owned Mexican subsidiary entered into a new agreement with Minerales de Avino, S.A. de C.V. (“Minerales”) whereby Minerales has indirectly granted to the Company the exclusive right to explore and mine the La Platosa property known as the “ET zone”. The ET zone includes the Avino Mine, where production at levels intended by management was achieved on July 1, 2015.

 

Under the agreement, the Company has obtained the exclusive right to explore and mine the property for an initial period of 15 years, with the option to extend the agreement for another 5 years. In consideration of the granting of these rights, the Company issued 135,189 common shares with a fair value of C$250 during the year ended December 31, 2012.The Company has agreed to pay to Minerales a royalty equal to 3.5% of net smelter returns (“NSR”). In addition, after the start of production, if the minimum monthly processing rate of the mine facilities is less than 15,000 tonnes, then the Company must pay to Minerales a minimum royalty equal to the applicable NSR royalty based on the processing at a monthly rate of 15,000 tonnes.

 

Minerales has also granted to the Company the exclusive right to purchase a 100% interest in the property at any time during the term of the agreement (or any renewal thereof), upon payment of $8 million within 15 days of the Company’s notice of election to acquire the property. The purchase would be subject to a separate purchase agreement for the legal transfer of the property.

 

(b) La Preciosa, Mexico

 

La Preciosa is a development stage mineral property located in the state of Durango, Mexico, within the municipalities of Pánuco de Coronado and Canatlán. The Project is hosting one of the largest undeveloped primary silver resources in Mexico, and is located adjacent to Avino’s existing operations at the Avino Property in Durango, Mexico. The property covers an area of approximately 1,134 hectares and is located on the eastern flank of the Sierra Madre Occidental mountain range.

 

On April 1, 2025, the Company determined that La Preciosa had demonstrated technical feasibility and commercial viability to support the reclassification from the exploration and evaluation asset stage to the development stage and mining properties with plant, equipment and mining properties.

 

As such, the Company performed an assessment for impairment under IFRS 6 prior to reclassification. Management assessed whether or not the assets were impaired using a quantitative assessment of the recoverable value.

 

Based on these factors, all of the criteria required by IAS 36.10 have been met, and the Company determined that the recoverable amount exceeds the carrying value, and no impairment was recorded.

During the year ended December 31, 2024, Endurance exercised the option to acquire 100% ownership of the Olympic Claims by satisfying all required terms of the option agreement.

 

8. NON-CONTROLLING INTEREST

 

At June 30, 2025, the Company had an effective 99.67% (December 31, 2024 - 99.67%) interest in its subsidiary Avino Mexico and the remaining 0.33% (December 31, 2024 - 0.33%) interest represents a non-controlling interest. The accumulated deficit and current period income attributable to the non-controlling interest are insignificant and accordingly have not been presented separately in the consolidated financial statements.

11. RECLAMATION PROVISION

 

Management’s estimate of the reclamation provision at June 30, 2025, is $2,350 (December 31, 2024 – $2,062), and the undiscounted value of the obligation is $5,251 (December 31, 2024 – $4,825).

 

The present value of the obligation was calculated using a risk-free interest rate of 9.71% (December 31, 2024 – 9.70%) and an inflation rate of 3.69% (December 31, 2024 – 3.69%). Reclamation activities are estimated to begin in 2027 for the San Gonzalo Mine and in 2042 for the Avino Mine.

Valuation of stock options requires the use of estimates and assumptions including the expected stock price volatility. The expected volatility used in valuing stock options is based on volatility observed in historical periods. Changes in the underlying assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimates. The fair value of the stock options was calculated using the Black-Scholes model with the following weighted average assumptions and resulting fair values:

(d) Restricted Share Units:

 

On April 19, 2018, the Company’s Restricted Share Unit (“RSU”) Plan was approved by its shareholders. The RSU Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee under the supervision of the Board of Directors as compensation to officers, directors, consultants, and employees. The Compensation Committee determines the terms and conditions upon which a grant is made, including any performance criteria or vesting period.

 

Upon vesting, each RSU entitles the participant to receive one common share, provided that the participant is continuously employed with or providing services to the Company. RSUs track the value of the underlying common shares, but do not entitle the recipient to the underlying common shares until such RSUs vest, nor do they entitle a holder to exercise voting rights or any other rights attached to ownership or control of the common shares, until the RSU vests and the RSU participant receives common shares.

17. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

 

The fair values of the Company’s amounts due to related parties and accounts payable approximate their carrying values because of the short-term nature of these instruments. Cash, amounts receivable, long-term investments are recorded at fair value. The carrying amounts of the Company’s equipment loans, and finance lease obligations are a reasonable approximation of their fair values based on current market rates for similar financial instruments.

 

The Company’s financial instruments are exposed to certain financial risks, including credit risk, liquidity risk, and market risk.

 

(a) Credit Risk

 

Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the other party by failing to discharge an obligation. The Company has exposure to credit risk through its cash, long-term investments and amounts receivable. The Company manages credit risk, in respect of cash and short- term investments, by maintaining the majority of cash and short-term investments at highly rated financial institutions.

 

The Company is exposed to a significant concentration of credit risk with respect to its trade accounts receivable balance because all of its concentrate sales are with two (December 31, 2024 – two) counterparties (see Note 18). However, the Company has not recorded any allowance against its trade receivables because to-date all balances owed have been settled in full when due (typically within 60 days of submission) and because of the nature of the counterparties.

 

The Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk at the end of any period is equal to the carrying amount of these financial assets as recorded in the consolidated statement of financial position. At June 30, 2025, no amounts were held as collateral.

 

(b) Liquidity Risk

 

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in satisfying financial obligations as they become due. The Company manages its liquidity risk by forecasting cash flows required by its operating, investing and financing activities. The Company had cash at June 30, 2025, in the amount of $37,279 and current assets exceeded current liabilities by $40,615 in order to meet short-term business requirements. Accounts payable have contractual maturities of approximately 30 to 90 days, or are due on demand and are subject to normal trade terms. The current portions of finance lease obligations are due within 12 months of the consolidated statement of financial position date. Amounts due to related parties are without stated terms of interest or repayment.

 

The maturity profiles of the Company’s contractual obligations and commitments as at June 30, 2025, are summarized as follows:

(c) Market Risk

 

Market risk consists of interest rate risk, foreign currency risk and price risk. These are discussed further below.

 

Interest Rate Risk

 

Interest rate risk consists of two components:

 

 

(i)

To the extent that payments made or received on the Company’s monetary assets and liabilities are affected by changes in the prevailing market interest rates, the Company is exposed to interest rate cash flow risk.

 

 

 

 

(ii)

To the extent that changes in prevailing market rates differ from the interest rates on the Company’s monetary assets and liabilities, the Company is exposed to interest rate price risk.

 

 

 

 

In management’s opinion, the Company is not materially exposed to interest rate risk, as any material debt obligations that bear interest are fixed and not subject to floating interest rates. A 10% change in the interest rate would not result in a material impact on the Company’s operations.

 

Foreign Currency Risk

 

Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company is exposed to foreign currency risk to the extent that the following monetary assets and liabilities are denominated in Mexican pesos and Canadian dollars:

Based on the net US dollar denominated asset and liability exposures as at June 30, 2025, a 10% fluctuation in the US/Mexican and Canadian/US exchange rates would impact the Company’s earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2025, by approximately $103 (year ended December 31, 2024 - $144). The Company has entered into certain foreign currency contracts to mitigate this risk and at June 30, 2025, recorded a derivative asset of $1,439 (December 31, 2024 – derivative liability of $475).

Price Risk

 

Price risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in market prices, other than those arising from interest rate risk or foreign currency risk.

 

The Company is exposed to price risk with respect to its amounts receivable, as certain trade accounts receivable are recorded based on provisional terms that are subsequently adjusted according to quoted metal prices at the date of final settlement. Quoted metal prices are affected by numerous factors beyond the Company’s control and are subject to volatility, and the Company does not employ hedging strategies to limit its exposure to price risk. At June 30, 2025, based on outstanding accounts receivable that were subject to pricing adjustments, a 10% change in metals prices would have an impact on net earnings (loss) of approximately $330 (December 31, 2024 - $36).

 

The Company is exposed to price risk with respect to its long-term investments, as these investments are carried at fair value based on quoted market prices. Changes in market prices result in gains or losses being recognized in net income (loss). At June 30, 2025, a 10% change in market prices would have an impact on net earnings (loss) of approximately $163 (December 31, 2024 - $119).

 

The Company’s profitability and ability to raise capital to fund exploration, evaluation and production activities is subject to risks associated with fluctuations in mineral prices. Management closely monitors commodity prices, individual equity movements, and the stock market to determine the appropriate course of action to be taken by the Company.

 

(d) Classification of Financial Instruments

 

IFRS 13 Financial Instruments: Disclosures establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value as follows:

 

Level 1 – quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

 

Level 2 – inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices); and

 

Level 3 – inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

 

The following table sets forth the Company’s financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis by level within the fair value hierarchy as at June 30, 2025:

18. SEGMENTED INFORMATION

 

The Company reviews its segment reporting to ensure it reflects the operational structure of the Company and enables the Company's Chief Operating Decision Maker (the Company’s CEO) to review operating segment performance. We have determined that each producing mine represents an operating segment, of which there is one as of June 30, 2025.

 

The Company’s revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2025 of $40,641 (June 30, 2024 - $27,180) are all attributable to Mexico, from shipments of concentrate produced by the Avino Mine, and is considered to be one single reportable operating segment.

Balance Sheet Strength

 

·

Avino had $37.3 million in cash at June 30, 2025, and remains debt-free, excluding operating equipment leases. Our strong balance sheet and working capital will provide the foundation to support our transformational growth plan to become Mexico’s next mid-tier silver producer.

 

2nd Quarter Operational Highlights

 

·

Silver Equivalent Production Increased 5%: Avino produced 645,602 silver equivalent ounces in Q2 2025, representing a 5% increase from Q2 of 2024. This increase was driven by significantly improved mill availability, with our highest quarterly mill throughput in history. This record throughput was partially offset by lower feed grades in all three metals (silver, gold and copper), as we moved through a lower grade section of the mine plan.

 

 

·

Record Mill Throughput: In Q2 2025, Avino achieved 36% higher mill throughput versus Q2 2024, totaling a quarterly record of 190,987 tonnes of material. These throughput levels were a result of previous upgrades and automation enhancements made by our operations team, demonstrating significant improvements in mill availability.

 

 

·

Gold Production Increased 17%: Q2 2025 production of 1,774 gold ounces represented a 17% increase compared to Q2 2024. This improved production resulted from the increased tonnes processed, alongside significant improvements in gold recoveries to 74% from 70% in Q2 of 2024.

 

 

·

Copper Production Increased 12%: Avino produced 1.5 million pounds of copper in Q2 2025, a 12% increase compared to Q2 2024.

 

 

·

Silver Production Decreased 3%: Silver production for Q2 2025 was 283,619 ounces, representing a 3% decrease compared to Q2 2024.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2025

 

Revenues

 

The Company recognized revenues of $21.8 million on the sale of Avino Mine bulk copper/silver/gold concentrate, compared to $14.8 million revenues for Q2 2024, an increase of $7.0 million.

 

The increase is a result of higher average realized metal prices for both silver and copper, as well as 26% higher payable silver equivalent ounces sold in the current period.

 

Metal prices for revenues recognized during the period were $33.85 per ounce of silver, $3,276 per ounce of gold, and $9,534 per tonne of copper, with comparable prices for Q2 2024 were $28.42 per ounce of silver, $2,331 per ounce of gold, and $9,711 per tonne of copper.

 

Payable silver equivalent ounces sold in the current period were 676,453 ounces, compared to 537,037 ounces in Q2 2024.

 

Cost of Sales & Mine Operating Income

 

Cost of sales were $11.6 million, compared to $10.1 million in Q2 2024, an increase of $1.5 million. The increase is mainly attributable to a more volume sold and tonnes processed partially offset by a weaker average Mexican Peso compared to the US Dollar during the current quarter, with an average of $19.06 Mexican Pesos to 1 US Dollar in Q2 2025 compared to an average of $17.22 Mexican Pesos to 1 US Dollar in Q2 2024, a difference of 11%.

 

Mine operating income, after depreciation and depletion, was $10.2 million, compared to $4.7 million in Q2 2024. The increase in mine operating income is a result of the items noted above, and partially offset by provisional pricing adjustments that had a negative impact of $0.1 million in Q2 2025 compared with a positive impact of $0.4 million on revenues and mine operating income in Q2 2024.

 

General and Administrative Expenses & Share-Based Payments

 

General and administrative expenses were $2.0 million, compared to $1.8 million in Q2 2024. The increase is a result of higher salaries and benefits primarily as a result of increase in operations and increased employee benefits and profit sharing from improved financial performance.

 

Share-based payments were $1.3 million, compared to $0.6 million in Q2 2024, an increase of $0.7 million. The increase is a direct result of the timing of option and RSU grants, and fluctuations in share price from period to period.

 

Other Items

 

Loss on long-term investments was $0.1 million compared to a gain of $0.2 million in Q2 2024. This is a direct result of fluctuations in the Company’s investment in shares of Talisker Resources, as well as the Company’s investment in shares of Silver Wolf Exploration and Endurance Gold.

 

Unrealized gain on derivative liability was $1.5 million with no comparable transaction in Q2 2024. This is a direct result of US Dollar/Mexican Peso foreign exchange forward contracts entered into during the year to mitigate risks surrounding the Company of material foreign exchange movements that could cause the Company to incur material losses.

 

Foreign exchange loss for the period was $1.4 million, a negative movement of $1.5 million compared to a gain of $0.1 million in Q2 2024. Foreign exchange gains or losses result from transactions in currencies other than the Canadian dollar functional currency. During the three months ended June 30, 2025, the US dollar depreciated in relation to the Mexican Peso and Canadian dollar, resulting in significant foreign exchange movements.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2025

 

Current and Deferred Income Taxes

 

Current income tax expense was $3.1 million in Q2 2025, a change of $2.5 million compared to an income tax expense $0.6 million for Q2 2024. The movement relates primarily to increased operating profits generated in Q2 2025, which resulted in increased income tax expense.

 

Deferred income tax expense was $0.6 million, a change of $0.2 million compared to an expense of $0.8 million in Q2 2024. Deferred income taxes fluctuates due to movements in taxable and deductible temporary differences related to changes in inventory, plant, equipment and mining properties, and exploration and evaluation assets, amongst other factors. The changes in current income taxes and deferred income taxes during the current and comparable periods primarily relate to movements in the tax bases and mining profits and/or losses in Mexico.

 

Net Income

 

Net income was $2.9 million for the period, or $0.02 per basic and diluted share, compared to net income of $1.2 million, or $0.01 per basic and diluted share for Q2 2024. The increase is a result of the items noted above, including increases in revenues, mine operating income and unrealized gain in derivatives. The positive movements were partially offset by foreign exchange loss and increases to current income tax expense.

 

EBITDA & Adjusted Income/Loss (see “Non-IFRS Accounting Standards Measures”)

 

EBITDA was $7.4 million for the period, an increase of $4.0 million when compared to $3.4 million for Q2 2024. The changes in EBITDA are primarily a factor of the items above, excluding any changes in depreciation and depletion, changes in interest expense and income, as well as any changes in income taxes. See Non-IFRS Accounting Standards Measures for a reconciliation for EBITDA.

 

Adjusted earnings for the period was $8.8 million, an increase of $4.5 million when compared to adjusted earnings of $4.3 million in the corresponding quarter in 2024. Changes to adjusted earnings are a result of the items noted above in EBITDA, further excluding share-based payments, unrealized gains and losses related to derivative liabilities, write-downs of equipment and movements in foreign exchange. See Non-IFRS Accounting Standards Measures for a reconciliation for adjusted earnings.

 

Cash Costs & All-in Sustaining Cash Costs (see “Non-IFRS Accounting Standard Measures”)

 

Cash costs per silver equivalent payable ounce sold was $15.11, compared to $16.29 for Q2 2024. The reduction in costs of 7% is attributable to higher silver equivalent ounces sold, partially offset by increased tonnes mined and milled.

 

All-in sustaining cash costs per silver equivalent payable ounce sold was $20.93, compared to $22.74 for Q2 2024. The costs remained constant is a result of the items mentioned above, with no significant difference between the comparable quarter in sustaining capital and exploration costs, as well as general and administrative expenses.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2025

 

Revenues

 

The Company recognized revenues net of penalties, treatment costs and refining charges, of $40.6 million on the sale of Avino Mine bulk copper/silver/gold concentrate, compared to revenues of $27.2 million for 2024, an increase of $13.4 million.

 

The increase in revenues is a result of higher average metal prices as described below, and 8% higher payable silver equivalent ounces sold in the current period.

 

Metal prices for revenues recognized during the period were $33.30 per ounce of silver, $3,150 per ounce of gold, and $9,491 per tonne of copper, with comparable prices for the six months ended June 30, 2024, of $26.62 per ounce of silver, $2,252 per ounce of gold, and $9,209 per tonne of copper.

 

Cost of Sales & Mine Operating Income

 

Cost of sales for the period were $19.9 million, compared to $20.1 million in the 2024 period, a decrease of $0.2 million. The decrease in cost of sales is attributable to a weaker 6-month average Mexican Peso compared to the US dollar, which positively impacted labour and contractor costs. This was partially offset by higher tonnes milled and higher ounces sold as mentioned above, which resulted in higher overall costs despite improved cost per ounce metrics.

 

Mine operating income for the period was $20.8 million, compared to $7.0 million in 2024. The increase in mine operating income is a result of higher revenues, with cost of sales being similar to the comparative period, as noted above.

 

General and Administrative Expenses & Share-Based Payments

 

General and administrative expenses were $4.1 million, compared to $3.1 million in the comparable period, with any increases coming from additional professional fees and office expenses in the period.

 

Share-based payments were $1.7 million, compared to $1.1 million in the comparable period, an increase of $0.6 million. The increase is a direct result of the timing of stock option and RSU grants, and fluctuations in share price from period to period.

 

Other Items

 

Unrealized gain on derivative liability was $1.9 million with no comparable transaction in Q2 2024. This is a direct result of US dollar/Mexican Peso foreign exchange forward contracts entered into mitigate risks surrounding the Company of material foreign exchange movements that could cause the Company to incur material losses.

 

Unrealized foreign exchange loss for the period was $1.5 million, a negative movement of $1.7 million compared to a gain of $0.2 million in the comparable period in 2024. Foreign exchange gains or losses result from transactions in currencies other than the Canadian dollar functional currency. During the period, the Canadian dollar and the Mexican Peso appreciated against the US dollar, resulting in an overall foreign exchange loss for the period. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the US dollar remained constant in relation to the Canadian dollar but depreciated compared to the Mexican peso by the end of first semester, resulting in a foreign exchange gain.

 

Current and Deferred Income Taxes

 

Current income tax expense for the period was $5.1 million, compared to a current income tax expense of $0.8 million in the comparable period. The movements are a result of higher profits generated in 2025, resulting in increased income tax expense, whereas in 2024, the Company had losses available to partially offset taxable income in Mexico.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2025

 

Deferred income tax expense was $1.8 million, a change of $1.1 million compared to an expense of $0.7 million in 2024. Deferred income tax fluctuates due to movements in taxable and deductible temporary differences related to the special mining duty in Mexico and to changes in inventory, plant, equipment and mining properties, and exploration and evaluation assets, amongst other factors. The changes in current income taxes and deferred income taxes during the current and comparable periods primarily relate to movements in the tax bases and mining profits and/or losses in Mexico.

 

Net Income

 

Net income was $8.5 million for the period, or $0.06 per share, compared to net income of $1.8 million, or $0.01 per share during the comparable period in 2024. The changes are a result of the items noted above, which are primarily increases in revenues, mine operating income between the two comparable periods. The increase was partially offset by increases in general and administrative expenses and share-based payments, and an elevated foreign exchange loss. Net income was further impacted by movements in the unrealized derivative liability / asset.

 

EBITDA & Adjusted Income/Loss (see “Non-IFRS Accounting Standards Measures”)

 

EBITDA for the period was $17.1 million, an increase of $12.0 million when compared to $5.1 million for the comparable period. The changes in EBITDA are primarily a factor of the items above, excluding any changes in depreciation and depletion, and any changes in income taxes. See Non-IFRS Accounting Standards Measures for a reconciliation for EBITDA.

 

Adjusted earnings for the period was $18.6 million, an increase of $12.2 million when compared to adjusted earnings of $6.4 million in the corresponding period in 2024. Changes to adjusted earnings are a result of the items noted above in EBITDA, further excluding share-based payments, unrealized gains and losses related to derivative liabilities, write-downs of equipment and movements in foreign exchange. See Non-IFRS Accounting Standards Measures for a reconciliation for adjusted earnings.

 

Cash Costs & All-in Sustaining Cash Costs (see “Non-IFRS Accounting Standards Measures”)

 

Cash costs per silver equivalent payable ounce sold was $13.97, compared to $15.55 for the comparable period in 2024. Cash costs per ounce improved compared with the prior year period, which is attributable to higher silver equivalent ounces sold and additionally to a weaker Mexican Peso compared to the US dollar on average during the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the six months ended June 2024, resulting in lower labour and contractor costs.

 

All-in sustaining cash costs per silver equivalent payable ounce sold was $20.54, compared to $21.40 for the comparable period in 2024. The decrease is a result of the items noted above, as well as movements in penalties, treatment and refining charges, exploration expenses and sustaining capital expenditures.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2025

 

Non – IFRS Accounting Standards Measures

 

EBITDA and Adjusted earnings

 

Earnings, or loss, before interest, taxes and amortization (“EBITDA”) is a non IFRS financial measure which excludes the following items from net earnings:

 

·

Income tax expense

·

Finance costs

·

Amortization and depletion

 

Adjusted earnings excludes the following additional items from EBITDA

 

·

Share based compensation;

·

Non-operational items including foreign exchange movements, fair value adjustments on derivative liability movements and other non-recurring items

 

Management believes EBITDA and adjusted earnings provides an indication of continuing capacity to generate operating cash flow to fund capital needs, service debt obligations and fund capital expenditures. These measures are intended to provide additional information to investors and analysts and are indicative of the Company’s financial performance. There are not standardized definitions under IFRS Accounting Standards and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of operating performance prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards.

 

Adjusted earnings excludes share-based payments, and non-operating or recurring items such as foreign exchange gains and losses, writedown of equipment or supplies and materials inventory, fair value adjustments on outstanding warrants and fair value adjustments on derivative liabilities. Under IFRS Accounting Standards, entities must reflect within compensation expense the cost of share-based payments. In the Company’s circumstances, share-based compensation can involve significant amounts that will not be settled in cash but are settled by issuance of shares in exchange. The Company discloses adjusted earnings to aid in understanding the results of the Company.

 

Adjusted earnings per share is calculated taking adjusted earnings divided by the weighted average number of diluted common shares per the financial statements.

Cash Cost and All-in Sustaining Cash Cost per Silver Equivalent Payable Ounce Sold

 

The following tables provide a reconciliation of cost of sales from the consolidated financial statements to cash cost and all-in sustaining cash cost per silver equivalent payable ounce sold. In each table, “silver equivalent payable ounces sold” consists of the sum of payable silver ounces, gold ounces and copper tonnes sold, before penalties, treatment charges, and refining charges, multiplied by the ratio of the average spot silver, gold and copper prices for the corresponding period.

 

Cash cost per payable ounce and all-in sustaining cash cost per payable ounce are measures developed by mining companies in an effort to provide a comparable standard. However, there can be no assurance that our reporting of these non-IFRS Accounting Standard measures is similar to that reported by other mining companies. Total cash cost per payable ounce and all-in sustaining cash cost per payable ounce are measures used by the Company to manage and evaluate operating performance of the Company’s mining operations, and are widely reported in the silver and gold mining industry as benchmarks for performance, but do not have standardized meanings prescribed by IFRS Accounting Standards, and are disclosed in addition to IFRS Accounting Standards measures.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2025

 

Cash cost per silver equivalent payable ounce

 

Management believes that the Company’s ability to control the cash cost per silver equivalent payable ounce is one of its key performance drivers impacting both the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. Achieving a low silver equivalent production cost base allows the Company to remain profitable from mining operations even during times of low commodity prices, and provides more flexibility in responding to changing market conditions. In addition, a profitable operation results in the generation of positive cash flows, which then improve the Company’s financial condition.

 

The Company’s calculation of all-in sustaining cash costs includes sustaining capital expenditures of $904 for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and all of which is attributable to the Avino Mine.

 

To facilitate a better understanding of these measures as calculated by the Company, detailed reconciliations between the non-IFRS Accounting Standard measures and the Company’s consolidated financial statements are provided below. The non-IFRS Accounting Standard measures presented are intended to provide additional information, and should not be considered in isolation nor should they be considered substitutes for IFRS measures. Calculated figures may not add up accurately due to rounding.

 

The following table reconciles cost of sales to cash cost per payable AgEq oz and all-in sustaining cash cost per payable AgEq oz for the preceding quarters:

Mine Operating Cash Flow Before Taxes

 

Mine operating cash flow before taxes is a non-IFRS Accounting Standard measure that does not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS Accounting Standards and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. Mine operating cash flow before taxes is calculated as mine operating income less depreciation and depletion in cost of sales and write down or reversals of equipment and supplies and materials inventory. Mine operating cash flow before taxes is used by management to assess the performance of the mine operations, excluding corporate activities and is provided to investors as a measure of the Company’s operating performance.

During Q2 2025, revenue was higher than the prior quarters, outside of Q4 2024, mainly due to increased silver equivalent ounces sold and elevating silver prices. When compared to quarters prior to Q4 2024, revenues were higher as a result of higher realized metal prices.

 

Net income and earnings per share in Q2 2025 were positive, with a slight decline compared to the previous two quarters. Earnings overall have increased compared to Q3 2024 and prior quarters, mainly due to better metal realized prices, volume sold and lower costs due to cost management and positive movements between the USD and Mexican Peso exchange rates. For further details see “Financial Results” section.

 

Total assets continue to increase overall when compared to previous quarters, as result of operating and financing cash flow generation, and capital investment in the operation.

 

Quarterly results will fluctuate with changes in revenues, cost of sales, general and administrative expenses, including non-cash items such as share-based payments, and other items including foreign exchange and deferred income taxes. These fluctuations are mainly caused by market conditions such as fluctuations in metal prices, currency fluctuations as well as variations in mineralization of the zones mined.

Operating Activities

 

Cash generated by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2025, was $9.1 million, an increase of $5.7 million compared to $3.4 million generated for the six months ended June 30, 2024. Cash movements from operating activities can fluctuate with changes in net income and working capital movements. In the six months ended June 30, 2025, cash generated from operating activities increased primarily a result of working capital changes between the two periods, as cash generated from operating activities prior to working capital movements in the quarter was $13.6 million, compared to $5.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024.

 

Financing Activities

 

Cash generated by financing activities was $6.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $2.4 million generated for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The movement is a result of proceeds from shares issued on the ATM and option exercises, partially offset by higher payments of lease and equipment loan. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company received net proceeds from issuance of shares for cash and from options exercise of $7.7 million (June 30, 2024 – $3.4 million). The Company also made lease and equipment loan payments totaling $1.1 million (June 30, 2024 - $1.0 million).

 

Investing Activities

 

Cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2025, was $5.8 million compared to $3.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. Cash used in investing activities included $5.8 million (June 30, 2024 - $3.3 million) spent on the acquisition of property and equipment and exploration expenditures.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

The Company’s ability to generate sufficient amounts of cash, in both the short term and the long term, to maintain existing capacity and to fund ongoing exploration, is dependent upon the discovery of economically recoverable reserves or resources and the ability of the Company to continue with sustainable and profitable mining operations.

 

Management expects that the Company’s ongoing liquidity requirements will be funded from cash generated from current operations. If required to fund ongoing exploration activities, and meet its objectives, including ongoing advancement at the Avino Mine further financing may be required. The Company continues to evaluate financing opportunities to advance its projects. The Company’s ability to secure adequate financing is, in part, dependent on overall market conditions, the prices of silver, gold, and copper, and other factors.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2025

 

The Company’s recent financing activities are summarized in the table below.

Financial Instruments and Risks

 

The fair values of the Company’s amounts due to related parties and accounts payable approximate their carrying values because of the short-term nature of these instruments. Cash, amounts receivable, long-term investments, and warrant liability are recorded at fair value. The carrying amounts of the Company’s equipment loans, and finance lease obligations are a reasonable approximation of their fair values based on current market rates for similar financial instruments.

 

The Company’s financial instruments are exposed to certain financial risks, including credit risk, liquidity risk, and market risk.

 

(a) Credit Risk

 

Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the other party by failing to discharge an obligation. The Company has exposure to credit risk through its cash, long-term investments and amounts receivable. The Company manages credit risk, in respect of cash and short- term investments, by maintaining the majority of cash and short-term investments at highly rated financial institutions.

 

The Company is exposed to a significant concentration of credit risk with respect to its trade accounts receivable balance because all of its concentrate sales are with two (December 31, 2024 – two) counterparties. However, the Company has not recorded any allowance against its trade receivables because to-date all balances owed have been settled in full when due (typically within 60 days of submission) and because of the nature of the counterparties.

 

The Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk at the end of any period is equal to the carrying amount of these financial assets as recorded in the consolidated statement of financial position. At June 30, 2025, no amounts were held as collateral.

(b) Liquidity Risk

 

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in satisfying financial obligations as they become due. The Company manages its liquidity risk by forecasting cash flows required by its operating, investing and financing activities. The Company had cash at June 30, 2025, in the amount of $37,279 and current assets exceeded current liabilities by $40,615 in order to meet short-term business requirements. Accounts payable have contractual maturities of approximately 30 to 90 days,or are due on demand and are subject to normal trade terms. The current portions of finance lease obligations are due within 12 months of the consolidated statement of financial position date. Amounts due to related parties are without stated terms of interest or repayment.

 

The maturity profiles of the Company’s contractual obligations and commitments as at June 30, 2025, are summarized as follows:

(c) Market Risk

 

Market risk consists of interest rate risk, foreign currency risk and price risk. These are discussed further below.

 

Interest Rate Risk

 

Interest rate risk consists of two components:

 

(i)

To the extent that payments made or received on the Company’s monetary assets and liabilities are affected by changes in the prevailing market interest rates, the Company is exposed to interest rate cash flow risk.

 

 

(ii)

To the extent that changes in prevailing market rates differ from the interest rates on the Company’s monetary assets and liabilities, the Company is exposed to interest rate price risk.

 

In management’s opinion, the Company is not materially exposed to interest rate risk, as any material debt obligations that bear interest are fixed and not subject to floating interest rates. A 10% change in the interest rate would not a result in a material impact on the Company’s operations.

FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2025

 

Foreign Currency Risk

 

Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company is exposed to foreign currency risk to the extent that the following monetary assets and liabilities are denominated in Mexican pesos and Canadian dollars:

Based on the net US dollar denominated asset and liability exposures as at June 30, 2025, a 10% fluctuation in the US/Mexican and Canadian/US exchange rates would impact the Company’s earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2025, by approximately $103. (December 31, 2024 - $144). The Company has entered into certain foreign currency contracts to mitigate this risk and at June 30, 2025, recorded a derivative asset of $1,439 (December 31, 2024 – derivative liability of $475).

 

Price Risk

 

Price risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in market prices, other than those arising from interest rate risk or foreign currency risk.

 

The Company is exposed to price risk with respect to its amounts receivable, as certain trade accounts receivable are recorded based on provisional terms that are subsequently adjusted according to quoted metal prices at the date of final settlement. Quoted metal prices are affected by numerous factors beyond the Company’s control and are subject to volatility, and the Company does not employ hedging strategies to limit its exposure to price risk. At June 30, 2025, based on outstanding accounts receivable that were subject to pricing adjustments, a 10% change in metals prices would have an impact on net earnings (loss) of approximately $330 (December 31, 2024 - $36).

 

The Company is exposed to price risk with respect to its long-term investments, as these investments are carried at fair value based on quoted market prices. Changes in market prices result in gains or losses being recognized in net income (loss). At June 30, 2025, a 10% change in market prices would have an impact on net earnings (loss) of approximately $164 (December 31, 2024 - $119).

 

The Company’s profitability and ability to raise capital to fund exploration, evaluation and production activities is subject to risks associated with fluctuations in mineral prices. Management closely monitors commodity prices, individual equity movements, and the stock market to determine the appropriate course of action to be taken by the Company.

(d) Classification of Financial Instruments

 

IFRS 13 Financial Instruments: Disclosures establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value as follows:

 

Level 1 – quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

 

Level 2 – inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices); and

 

Level 3 – inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

 

The following table sets forth the Company’s financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis by level within the fair value hierarchy as at June 30, 2025:

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

New and amended IFRS that are effective for the current year:

 

Certain new accounting standards and interpretations have been published that are either applicable in the current year or are not mandatory for the current period and have not been early adopted. We have assessed these standards, and they are not expected to have a material impact on the Company in the current or future reporting periods.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) or 15d- 15(f) of the Exchange Act, and by the Canadian Securities Administrators) that occurred during the six months ended June 30, 2025, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

 

Cautionary Note regarding Reserves and Resources

 

National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”), issued by the Canadian Securities Administrators, lays out the standards of disclosure for mineral projects. This includes a requirement that a certified Qualified Person (“QP”) (as defined under the NI 43-101) supervises the preparation of the mineral reserves and mineral resources. Peter Latta, Vice President, Technical Services is a certified QP for the Company and has reviewed this MD&A for QP technical disclosures. All NI 43-101 technical reports can be found on the Company’s website at www.avino.com or under the Company’s profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.

Cautionary Note to United States Investors Concerning Estimates of Mineral Reserves and Resources

 

This MD&A has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the securities laws in effect in Canada, which differ from the requirements of United States securities laws applicable to U.S. companies. Information concerning our mineral properties has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of Canadian securities laws, which differ in respects from the requirements of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) applicable to domestic United States issuers. Accordingly, the disclosure in this MD&A regarding our mineral properties may not be comparable to the disclosure of United States issuers subject to the SEC’s mining disclosure requirements.

 

Additional Information

 

Additional information on the Company, including the Company’s most recently file AIF and the condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, is available under the Company’s profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca and on the Company’s website at www.avino.com.
