    Record revenues and Adjusted EBITDA, Keno Hill delivers first profitable quarter, and Lucky Friday sets new milling record

    Hecla Mining Company ((HL) ("Hecla", "we", "our" or the "Company") today announced first quarter 2025 financial and operating results.

    FIRST QUARTER HIGHLIGHTS

     

    Financial Achievements:

    • Generated record sales of $261.3 million, an increase of 5% over the prior quarter.
    • Reported net income applicable to common stockholders of $28.7 million, or $0.05 per share.
    • Achieved record Adjusted EBITDA of $90.8 million during the quarter, $357.1 million during the last 12 months resulting in an improved net leverage ratio* of 1.5x compared to 1.6x in the prior quarter.5
    • Consolidated silver total cost of sales of $129.6 million; cash cost and all-in sustaining cost ("AISC") per silver ounce (each after by-product credits) of $1.29 and $11.91, respectively.3,4
    • Keno Hill posted its first profitable quarter under Hecla ownership, delivering $1.0 million of gross profit, helped by the elevated silver price. The mine continues to advance work to achieve commercial production status.
    • Gold total cost of sales of $50.7 million; cash cost and all-in sustaining cost ("AISC") per gold ounce of $2,195 and $2,303, respectively.3,4

    Operational Performance:

    • Produced 4.1 million ounces of silver and 34,232 ounces of gold.
    • Established a new quarterly milling record at Lucky Friday of 108,745 tons, beating the prior record set in the fourth quarter 2024.
    • Increased Keno Hill production to 772,430 ounces of silver, growing 23% over the fourth quarter of 2024.

    Exploration:

    • Extended Greens Creek mineralization 400 feet down plunge to the south in the 200 South Zone.
    • Confirmed and expanded mineralization at Keno Hill in the Bermingham Deposit through continued drilling.
    • Initiated surface exploration programs at Midas in Nevada and Greens Creek, with drilling set to begin in May.

    *Net leverage ratio is calculated as current debt, long-term debt and finance leases less cash divided by trailing twelve-month adjusted EBITDA.

    STRATEGIC PRIORITIES FOR 2025

     
    • Strengthen the balance sheet in 2025, targeting highest risk-adjusted return projects and increasing free cash flow generation.
    • Advance Keno Hill's permitting and invest in critical infrastructure to attain sustained profitability.
    • Optimize operating portfolio through continued strategic review of Casa Berardi to maximize value.
    • Identify opportunities in our extensive exploration portfolio to create shareholder value.
    • Implement standardized enterprise systems and advanced analytics to improve mine planning and cost management, driving sustained profitability and efficient capital allocation.

    "This quarter demonstrates the strength and growth potential of our business, with record sales of $261.3 million representing a 5% increase over the prior quarter," said Rob Krcmarov, President & Chief Executive Officer. "With record Adjusted EBITDA of $90.8 million this quarter and $357.1 million over the past year, we have improved our net leverage ratio to 1.5x, reinforcing our solid financial foundation."

    Krcmarov continued, "Our operational excellence continues to shine through, with Lucky Friday setting a new quarterly milling record and Keno Hill increasing silver production by 23% over the prior quarter. Looking ahead, we're focusing on four key strategic pillars: achieving operational excellence through standardized systems and continuous improvement; optimizing our portfolio through strategic reviews and focus capital allocation on high-return projects or those that enhance environmental or safety performance or reduce risk; intensifying our focus on financial discipline with a rigorous capital allocation framework; and leveraging our position as North America's largest silver producer to meet growing demand from green technology markets."

    Sales increased to $261.3 million, a new quarterly record, or 5% over the prior quarter, reflecting higher realized prices for precious metals, which were partially offset by lower silver, gold and zinc sales volumes. Lead sales volumes increased primarily due to a strong operational quarter at Lucky Friday.

    Gross profit was $74.0 million, an increase of 8% over the prior quarter. The increase is attributable to (i) Greens Creek gross profit increasing by $4.4 million due to higher realized prices for precious metals, partially offset by lower sales volumes of all metals except zinc, (ii) Lucky Friday gross profit increased by $1.6 million due to higher realized silver prices and volumes partially offset by higher production costs, and (iii) Keno Hill gross profit of $1 million (first profitable quarter under Hecla's ownership), reflecting the benefit of higher realized silver prices on 2% lower sales volumes over the prior quarter. At Casa Berardi, the gross profit decreased by $2.1 million as the benefit of higher realized gold prices was offset by lower gold sales volumes and higher production costs.

    Net income applicable to common stockholders was $28.7 million compared to $11.8 million in the prior quarter. The improvement was primarily related to:

    • Positive fair value adjustments, net of $3.6 million, due to an increase in the fair value of our marketable securities portfolio.
    • Ramp-up and suspension costs decreased by $6.3 million, reflecting the impact of Keno Hill generating gross profit during the quarter and not contributing any costs to ramp-up and suspension costs in the first quarter.

    Partly offset by:

    • An increase in income and mining tax provision of $8.1 million, reflecting higher taxable income realized by our US tax group while unable to recognize losses in Canada.
    • An increase in general and administrative costs of $3.0 million reflecting a combination of headcount additions and higher incentive compensation accruals.
    • A foreign exchange loss of $0.4 million versus a gain of $4.1 million, reflecting the impact of the U.S. dollar depreciation compared to the Canadian dollar.

    Consolidated silver total cost of sales was $129.6 million, an increase of $6.2 million or 5% from the prior quarter, primarily due to higher production costs at Lucky Friday of $3.9 million reflecting higher mining, contractor, maintenance and profit sharing costs, and consumables usage, and $2 million at Greens Creek reflecting higher labor and fuel purchase costs.

    Cash costs and AISC per silver ounce, each after by-product credits, were $1.29 and $11.91, respectively, higher versus the prior quarter, primarily due to higher production costs, partially offset by lower treatment charges, higher by-product credits (due to higher realized gold prices) and higher silver production. AISC was higher due to additional corporate general and administrative expenses, partially offset by lower sustaining capital.3,4

    Gold total cost of sales for Casa Berardi decreased by $1 million due to lower sales volumes.

    Cash costs and AISC per gold ounce, each after by-product credits, were $2,195 and $2,303 respectively, an increase over the prior quarter as lower production costs and sustaining capital spend was partially offset by lower gold production.3,4 Casa Berardi costs are anticipated to improve late in the third quarter of the year as the strip ratio of the 160 pit is expected to decline.

    Adjusted EBITDA was $90.8 million, a 5% increase over the prior quarter. The ratio of net debt to adjusted EBITDA (net leverage ratio) improved to 1.5x from 1.6x in the prior quarter due to strong EBITDA generation during the last 12 months, which offset the $21.1 million increase in net debt.1 Cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 2025 were $23.7 million and included $43 million drawn on the revolving credit facility.

    Cash provided by operating activities was $35.7 million, a decrease of $31.7 million, primarily attributable to unfavorable working capital changes of $48.2 million, including an increase of accounts receivable reflecting the higher price environment and timing of sales, inventory builds at Casa Berardi and Keno Hill, the semi-annual interest payment on our notes and the timing of accounts payable vendor payments and annual incentive compensation payments.

    Capital investment was $54.1 million, compared to $60.8 million in the prior quarter, primarily due to lower capital investment at Greens Creek of $5.0 million and Keno Hill of $5.1 million reflecting the fact that the first quarter is historically a low capital investment quarter, due to the winter weather.

    Free cash flow was negative $18.4 million, compared to positive $6.7 million in the prior quarter, with the decrease primarily due to lower cash flow from operations, reflecting negative working capital adjustments ($48.2 million), some of which are expected to reverse in the second quarter.2

    Hedging Update: Forward Sales Contracts for Base Metals and Foreign Currency

    The Company uses financially settled forward sales contracts to manage exposures to zinc and lead price changes in forecasted concentrate shipments. On March 31, 2025, the Company had contracts covering approximately 20% and 29% of the forecasted payable zinc and lead production for 2025 - 2026 at an average price of $1.39 and $1.02 per pound, respectively.

    The Company also manages Canadian dollar ("CAD") exposure through forward contracts. At March 31, 2025, the Company had hedged approximately 37% of forecasted Casa Berardi and Keno Hill CAD denominated direct production costs through 2026 at an average CAD/USD rate of 1.35. The Company has also hedged approximately 24% of Casa Berardi and Keno Hill CAD denominated total capital expenditures through 2026 at 1.39.

    Operational Review

    Greens Creek produced 2.0 million ounces of silver and 13,759 ounces of gold. Silver production increased 5% over the prior quarter due to a 10% increase in silver grade milled, partially offset by lower tons milled. Zinc and lead production declined 3% and 6% respectively, primarily due to lower mill throughput.

    The silver grade milled averaged higher month-over-month throughout the quarter, averaging nearly 13 ounce per ton ("opt") in March. Backfill and development activities also continued to improve throughout the quarter.

    First Quarter Financial Review

    Sales were $118.1 million, an increase of 5% over the prior quarter, benefiting from higher realized precious metals prices which were partially offset by lower lead and zinc prices, as well as lower concentrate sales due to timing of sales.

    Total cost of sales was $69.6 million, an increase of 3% over the prior quarter, primarily due to higher labor and fuel volumes for elevated power generation requirements. Cash cost per silver ounce, after by-product credits, was negative $4.08, and increased over the prior quarter due to higher labor and fuel costs. AISC per silver ounce, after by-product credits, was negative $0.03 and decreased over the prior quarter due to lower capital investment.3,4

    Cash flow from operations was $43.9 million, a decrease of 27% over the prior quarter due to unfavorable working capital changes tied to timing of sales and higher vendor payments. Capital investment was $10.8 million, a decrease of 32% over the prior quarter.

    Free cash flow was $33.4 million, a decrease of 27% from the prior quarter as lower capital investment did not fully offset the decrease in cash flow from operations.

    Outlook Revised

    Production guidance for 2025 at Greens Creek is maintained at 8.1-8.8 million ounces of silver, 44.0-48.0 thousand ounces of gold, or 18.0-19.5 million silver equivalent ounces when factoring in all metals (silver, gold, lead, zinc and copper). Greens Creek's cost outlook has been lowered, maintaining cost of sales guidance at $289 million (includes depreciation) but lowering cash cost guidance to $0.25-$0.75 from the prior $2.00-$2.50 (after by-product credits), per silver ounce, and AISC to $6.50-$7.25 from $8.75-$9.50 (after by-product credits), per silver ounce.3,4 Capital investment guidance is unchanged at $48-$51 million in sustaining capital and $10-$12 million in growth capital. Capital investment at Greens Creek is expected to increase in the second and third quarters (relative to the first quarter) due to the seasonal construction period. The Company expects the Greens Creek operation to have 3-6 days of planned maintenance in the second quarter, which is the historical norm for quarterly maintenance downtime at Greens Creek. In approximately mid-June, the mine expects to shift to self-generated power while Alaska Electric Light and Power, the utility company supplying power to Greens Creek, goes offline for a planned 8-week maintenance shutdown, which will add costs to the operation of Greens Creek during this period as self-generated power is more costly than purchased power from the utility.

    Operational Review

    Lucky Friday set a new quarterly milling record of 108,745 tons, beating the record set in the prior quarter. Silver production was 1.3 million ounces, flat over the prior quarter. Lead and zinc production was 8,480 tons and 3,681 tons, respectively, declining 2% and 3% respectively over the prior quarter, both impacted by modestly lower milled grades.

    First Quarter Financial Review

    Sales were $63.2 million, an increase of 10% over the prior quarter due to a higher realized silver price and a higher volume of zinc concentrate sales, partially offset by lower realized lead and zinc prices.

    Total cost of sales was $44.0 million, up 10% over the prior quarter, driven by higher depreciation expense (+14%), labor costs (+6%) partially due to a rise in profit sharing payments to miners as a result of better performance, consumables (+9%) and cost for drill contractors. Cash costs and AISC per silver ounce, each after by-product credits, was $9.37 and $20.08, respectively, and increased over the prior quarter primarily due to the higher operating costs as silver volumes were largely flat when compared to the prior quarter.3,4

    Cash flow from operations was $23.8 million, a decrease of 6% over the prior quarter which was unfavorably impacted by working capital changes, largely tied to changes in accounts receivable. Capital investment increased to $15.4 million, a 23% increase over the prior quarter, but trending slightly below plan for the year on an annualized basis. Free cash flow was $8.4 million and decreased over the prior quarter due to the items mentioned above.

    Outlook Revised

    There is no change to the 2025 production guidance for Lucky Friday, maintaining silver production guidance of 4.7-5.1 million ounces of silver, or 8.0-8.5 million silver equivalent ounces when factoring in all metals (silver, lead and zinc). Guidance for cost of sales is revised up to $165 million from $135 million (includes depreciation), with the change about equally split between cash and non-cash items. Cash cost per silver ounce (after by-product credits) guidance is revised up to $7.00-$7.50 from $4.25-$4.75 and guidance for AISC per silver ounce (after by-product credits) is revised up to $20.00-$21.50 from $16.50-$18.00. The primary drivers of the cash cost and AISC guidance increase at Lucky Friday are higher labor and burden costs, insurance costs, higher than budgeted profit sharing expense, higher costs associated with contractor use intensity, and higher costs than budgeted for some consumables.3,4 Capital guidance for Lucky Friday in 2025 is unchanged, with investment expected to increase in the second and third quarters (relative to the first quarter) due to the seasonal construction period. The Company expects the Lucky Friday operation to have 3-6 days of planned maintenance in the second quarter, which is the historical norm for quarterly maintenance downtime at the mine.

    Operational Review

    Keno Hill produced 772,430 ounces of silver, a 23% increase over the prior quarter due to higher mill throughput. Mill throughput for the first quarter averaged 305 tons per day ("tpd"), remaining below the permitted capacity of 440 tpd. The mill continues to rely on the existing ore stockpile as the mine continues to ramp up to higher tonnage rates (first quarter ore tons mined averaged 259 tpd). Work continues to advance to bring the asset into a state of commercial production.

    Mill throughput during the quarter was impacted by power curtailments by Yukon Energy Corporation ("YEC"), which was carrying out powerline maintenance. YEC also experienced a turbine failure at its hydroelectric plant in Whitehorse in late October 2024, which is scheduled to be repaired in August of 2025.

    First Quarter Financial Review

    Sales were $16.9 million, increasing 10% over the prior quarter primarily due to a higher realized silver price despite not selling all metal produced in the quarter. Total cost of sales was $15.9 million, flat over the prior quarter. Because Keno Hill realized positive gross profit for the quarter, there was no allocation made to ramp-up and suspension costs, as compared to the prior quarter when $6.3 million of site-specific Keno Hill ramp-up costs were recognized.

    Cash flow from operations was negative $9.7 million, a decline over the prior quarter due to unfavorable working capital changes tied to the inventory build ($6.9 million) and changes in accounts payable ($3.2 million) reflecting higher vendor payments in the quarter. Capital investments during the quarter were $10.4 million, $5.1 million lower than the prior quarter. Free cash flow was negative $18.4 million, a decline of $3.7 million over the prior quarter due to the lower cash flow from operations, partially offset by the lower capital investment during the quarter.

    Outlook

    Power curtailment by YEC at Keno Hill has improved in 2025, with the previously reported eight days of operational stoppage remaining unchanged through quarter end. Further disruptions are not expected during warmer weather months, during which time it is expected YEC's generating demand is lower. The Company estimates the power curtailments during planned August YEC maintenance downtime could lower production by approximately 90,000 ounces of silver in the third quarter, which was previously known and factored into our initial 2025 guidance released in February. Keno Hill is expected to have 3-6 days of planned maintenance in the second quarter, which is the historical norm for quarterly maintenance downtime at the mine.

    Keno Hill has generated marginal profits for the company at current throughput rates and prices. Our immediate focus is to advance permits and successfully execute infrastructure projects, with the goal of putting the mine on a path toward achieving its current permitted capacity of 440 tons per day which, at current prices, is expected to generate positive free cash flow. We estimate that to be sustainably profitable at our current long-range metals prices (which are significantly lower than current prices), throughput rates would need to reach approximately 500 to 600 tons per day, due to Keno Hill's high fixed costs. Currently Keno Hill is not configured to sustainably produce 440 tons per day (although the mill has achieved that rate for multiple weeks on end during test run periods). Achieving 440 or higher tons per day would require ore from both the Bermingham deposit and the lower grade Flame & Moth deposit, significant capital expenditures, obtaining permits, executing projects, mine development and maintaining community support. If any one of these were not to occur, particularly if prices were to decrease from current prices, Keno Hill as currently configured would not be profitable, and placing the operation on care and maintenance would be an option.

    Please refer to (i) the discussion of commercial production at Keno Hill in the Company's Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on May 1, 2025 and (ii) the guidance section of the release for detailed production, cost, and capital guidance for 2025.

    Operational Review

    Casa Berardi produced 20,473 ounces of gold, a decrease of 2% over the prior quarter, due to lower underground grades mined and total milled tons. Mined tons (ore and waste) in the 160 pit decreased 20% over the prior quarter, with operating costs 2% lower than the prior quarter. The stripping ratio for the 160 pit is expected to decline in the second half of 2025, and is expected to further reduce costs.

    First Quarter Financial Review

    Sales were $56.0 million, a decrease of 5% over the prior quarter, primarily due to lower ounces sold, partially offset by a higher average realized gold price.

    Total cost of sales was $50.7 million, a decrease of 2% over the prior quarter. Cash costs and AISC per gold ounce, each after by-product credits, were $2,195 and $2,303 respectively, an increase over the prior quarter as lower production costs and sustaining capital investment was partially offset by lower gold production.3,4 Casa Berardi costs are anticipated to improve late in the third quarter of the year as the strip ratio of the 160 pit is expected to decline.

    Cash flow from operations was $9.9 million, a 20% decrease over the prior quarter due to unfavorable working capital changes (timing of accounts payable payments and an increase in inventory). Capital investment was $16.3 million, lower by $0.1 million over the prior quarter. Free cash flow was negative $6.4 million, a $2.3 million decrease over the prior quarter due to lower cash flow from operations.2

    Outlook

    Casa Berardi is advancing toward a more streamlined and efficient surface-only operation, with plans to focus exclusively on the 160 pit by mid-2025. This transition follows the successful extraction of higher-margin stopes from the west underground mine, positioning the Company for continued productivity and cost-effective mining.

    Currently there is no change to the Casa Berardi production guidance of 76.0-82.0koz of gold production in 2025. Casa Berardi guidance for cost of sales (includes depreciation) is revised up to $180 million from $165.5 million due to increased open pit contractor costs related to extending the work by two months from the prior plan, and other cost increases. Cash cost guidance (after by-product credits, per gold ounce) is unchanged at $1,500-$1,650/oz and AISC (after by-product credits, per gold ounce) guidance is also unchanged at $1,750-$1,950/oz.3,4 First quarter cash costs and AISC are above the full year guidance ranges on a pro rata basis but are in line with the Company's expectations and should improve in second half 2025 for the reasons noted above, with the fourth quarter expected to benefit the most in terms of cost improvement. Total capital investment guidance for 2025 is unchanged at $58-$63 million. Capital investment at Casa Berardi is expected to increase over the second and third quarters due to seasonal construction period plans, with tailings construction being a major factor in the expected increase during the warmer months of the year. Casa Berardi is expected to have 3-6 days of planned maintenance in the second quarter, which is the historical norm for quarterly maintenance downtime at the mine.

    Casa Berardi is expected to produce gold from the 160 pit and associated stockpiles until 2027. At current gold prices, the 160 pit is expected to generate strong free cash flow late third quarter (when the pit's strip ratio is expected to decline) until 2027. Upon completion of mining at the 160 pit, and milling the remaining stockpiles, Casa Berardi is expected to have a production gap commencing in 2027 and continuing until 2032 or later, assuming no underground mine life extension. During this time, the focus is expected to be on investing in permitting, infrastructure and equipment, as well as de-watering and stripping two expected new open pits, the Principal and West Mine Crown Pillar pits. Upon conclusion of the hiatus and related permitting and construction, the Company expects the mine to generate significant free cash flow at current gold prices.

    Given the expected hiatus in future production and the uncertainty surrounding permitting and timing of construction of the new open pits, the Company continues to consider strategic alternatives for Casa Berardi, which is ongoing and includes evaluating scenarios such as (i) an outright disposal, (ii) joint venturing the asset, (iii) a spin out of the asset, (iv) extending the underground mine or (v) accelerating future cash flows to capture part of the current record gold prices via a prepayment structure or other financing arrangement.

    Please refer to guidance section of the release for production, cost, and capital guidance for 2025.

    EXPLORATION AND PRE-DEVELOPMENT

     

    Exploration and pre-development expenses totaled $4.5 million for the first quarter of the year. During the first quarter, exploration activities focused on underground exploration at Greens Creek and surface and underground definition drilling at Keno Hill.

    Increased exploration spend is anticipated in the second and third quarters as exploration ramps-up during the warmer months. At Greens Creek, two helicopter supported surface core drills are planned to test near mine targets located within potential drifting distance from the current underground infrastructure. At Keno Hill, three surface core drills are focused on expanding resources in the Bermingham Deep target area.

    At Greens Creek, exploration drilling during the first quarter in the 200 South Zone expands mineralization an additional 400 feet along plunge to the south and is now the southern-most high-grade drillhole intercept. While this interval is narrow, the high-grade silver, zinc, and lead mineralization continues to highlight the prospectivity of the region. At Keno Hill, underground drilling continues to confirm and expand mineralization in the Bermingham Deposit.

    Exploration activities at Midas in Nevada will commence in May with two surface core drills testing multiple high-priority targets. These targets are strategically positioned to test down-dip extensions of mapped or inferred structures within an expansive nine-square-mile envelope of high-level favorable alteration. Recent sampling has identified several anomalies coincident with favorable structural settings, significantly enhancing our targeting precision. The Company's combined Midas and Hollister districts located within the Northern Nevada Rift and along the northern extension of the Carlin Trend continues to demonstrate potential for both epithermal gold-silver discoveries and deeper Carlin-type mineralization in areas previously unexplored.

    Selected drill intercepts for the two operations are shown below.

    Project Permitting Update

    Libby Exploration Project

    The Libby Exploration Project in Montana was included in the Trump Administration's March 18, 2025, announcement of advancing critical mineral projects under Executive Order 14241, Immediate Measures to Increase American Mineral Production. As a result, the Project has been placed on the Federal Permitting Improvement Steering Council's FAST-41 permitting dashboard, which will ensure the environmental review and authorizations schedule for the project is publicly available and allows all stakeholders to benefit from increased transparency.

    The project is a large silver and copper deposit located 50 miles from the Company's Lucky Friday mine. A Plan of Operations is currently under an Environmental Assessment review by the U.S. Forest Service, which review is expected to be completed later this year. Upon successful completion of that process, the Company would have the authority to dewater and rehabilitate approximately 7,000 feet of the existing 14,000 foot Libby Adit, extend the adit by approximately 4,200 feet, and construct lateral drifts to conduct exploration activities. As of December 31, 2024, the project had Inferred resources of 183.3 million ounces of silver and 759 thousand tons of copper. The Company continues to analyze the feasibility of developing a mine at the Libby Exploration Project and capital allocation decisions will be disciplined and focused on delivering shareholder value.

    2025 Cost Guidance Revised

    Total silver cash cost guidance per silver ounce (after by-product credits) is unchanged at $3.00-$3.25/oz, and guidance for AISC per silver ounce (after by-product credits) is also unchanged at $15.75-$17.00/oz.3,4 This guidance only incorporates Greens Creek and Lucky Friday, as Keno Hill remains in a state of pre-commercial production.

    • At Greens Creek, guidance for total costs of sales (includes depreciation) remains unchanged at $289 million, while cash cost per silver ounce (after by-product credits) is lowered to $0.25-$0.75 from $2.00-$2.50, and guidance for AISC per silver ounce (after by-product credits) is lowered to $6.50-7.25 from $8.75-$9.50, primarily tied to higher by-product credits.3,4
    • At Lucky Friday, guidance for cost of sales is revised up to $165 million from $135 million (includes depreciation), with the change about equally split between cash and non-cash items. Cash cost per silver ounce (after by-product credits) guidance is revised up to $7.00-$7.50 from $4.25-$4.75 and guidance for AISC per silver ounce (after by-product credits) is revised up to $20.00-$21.50 from $16.50-$18.00.3,4 The primary drivers of the cash cost and AISC guidance increase at Lucky Friday are higher labor and burden costs, insurance costs, higher than budgeted profit sharing expense, higher costs associated with contractor use intensity, and higher costs than budgeted for some consumables.

    Casa Berardi guidance for cost of sales is revised up to $180 million from $165.5 million (includes depreciation) due to increased open pit contractor costs related to extending the work by two months from the prior plan, and other cost increases. Cash cost guidance (after by-product credits) per gold ounce is unchanged at $1,500-$1,650 and AISC (after by-product credits) per gold ounce guidance is reiterated at $1,750-$1,950.3,4

    2025 Capital and Exploration Guidance Reiterated

    Consolidated capital investment remains unchanged and is expected to be $222-$242 million.

    • Greens Creek's capital investment budget is primarily attributable to engineering and construction related to the expansion of its tailings facility, which is expected to increase tailings capacity to 2040.
    • Lucky Friday's capital investment is heavily tied to underground development and a surface cooling project, which is critical to increase the designed cooling capacity at the mine over its reserve mine-life of seventeen years.
    • Expected capital spend at Keno Hill comprises mine development and mine infrastructure projects, including a paste backfill plant, tailings facility, and water treatment plant.
    • Casa Berardi's expected growth capital spend includes tailings construction costs.

    Exploration and pre-development expenditures remain unchanged and are expected to be $28 million, with the focus at Greens Creek and Keno Hill, with some planned spend at Nevada and Lucky Friday.

    NOTES

    Non-GAAP Financial Measures

    Non-GAAP financial measures are intended to provide additional information only and do not have any standard meaning prescribed by United States generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). These measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures cited in this release and listed below are reconciled to their most comparable GAAP measure at the end of this release.

    (1) Adjusted net income (loss) applicable to common stockholders is a non-GAAP measurement, a reconciliation of which to net income (loss) applicable to common stockholders, the most comparable GAAP measure, can be found at the end of the release. Adjusted net income (loss) applicable to common stockholders is a measure used by management to evaluate the Company's operating performance but should not be considered an alternative to net income (loss) applicable to common stockholders as defined by GAAP. They exclude certain impacts which are of a nature which we believe are not reflective of our underlying performance. Management believes that adjusted net income (loss) applicable to common stockholders per common share provides investors with the ability to better evaluate our underlying operating performance.

    (2) Free cash flow is a non-GAAP measure calculated as cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures. Cash provided by operating activities for the Greens Creek, Lucky Friday, Keno Hill, and Casa Berardi operating segments excludes exploration and pre-development expense, as it is a discretionary expenditure and not a component of the mines' operating performance. Capital expenditures refers to Additions to properties, plants and equipment from the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, net of finance leases.

    (3) Cash cost, after by-product credits, per silver and gold ounce is a non-GAAP measurement, a reconciliation of total cost of sales, can be found at the end of the release. It is an important operating statistic that management utilizes to measure each mine's operating performance. It also allows the benchmarking of performance of each mine versus those of our competitors. As a primary silver mining company, management also uses the statistic on an aggregate basis - aggregating the Greens Creek and Lucky Friday mines to compare performance with that of other silver mining companies. Similarly, the statistic is useful in identifying acquisition and investment opportunities as it provides a common tool for measuring the financial performance of other mines with varying geologic, metallurgical and operating characteristics. In addition, the Company may use it when formulating performance goals and targets under its incentive program.

    (4) All-in sustaining cost (AISC), after by-product credits, is a non-GAAP measurement, a reconciliation of which to total cost of sales, the closest GAAP measurement, can be found in the end of the release. AISC, after by-product credits, includes total cost of sales and other direct production costs, expenses for reclamation at the mine sites and all site sustaining capital costs. AISC, after by-product credits, is calculated net of depreciation, depletion, and amortization and by-product credits. Prior year presentation has been adjusted to conform with current year presentation.

    (5) Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measurement, a reconciliation of which to net loss, the most comparable GAAP measure, can be found at the end of the release. Adjusted EBITDA is a measure used by management to evaluate the Company's operating performance but should not be considered an alternative to net loss, or cash provided by operating activities as those terms are defined by GAAP, and does not necessarily indicate whether cash flows will be sufficient to fund cash needs. In addition, the Company may use it when formulating performance goals and targets under its incentive program. Net debt to adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measurement, a reconciliation of which to debt and net income (loss), the most comparable GAAP measurements, can be found at the end of the release. It is an important measure for management to measure relative indebtedness and the ability to service the debt relative to its peers. It is calculated as total debt outstanding less total cash on hand divided by adjusted EBITDA.

    (6) Expectations for 2025 include silver, gold, lead, and zinc production from Greens Creek, Lucky Friday, Keno Hill, and Casa Berardi converted using gold $2,550/oz, silver $28/oz, zinc $1.25/lb, and lead $0.85/lb. Numbers are rounded. Assumed exchange rate for Canadian dollar is 1.35 CAD/USD.

    Current GAAP measures used in the mining industry, such as total cost of goods sold, do not capture all the expenditures incurred to discover, develop and sustain silver and gold production. Management believes that AISC is a non-GAAP measure that provides additional information to management, investors and analysts to help (i) in the understanding of the economics of our operations and performance compared to other producers and (ii) in the transparency by better defining the total costs associated with production. Similarly, the statistic is useful in identifying acquisition and investment opportunities as it provides a common tool for measuring the financial performance of other mines with varying geologic, metallurgical and operating characteristics. In addition, the Company may use it when formulating performance goals and targets under its incentive program.

    Cautionary Statements to Investors on Reserves and Resources

    This news release uses the terms "mineral resources", "measured mineral resources", "indicated mineral resources" and "inferred mineral resources." Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. You should not assume that all or any part of measured or indicated mineral resources will ever be converted into mineral reserves. Further, inferred mineral resources have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence and as to whether they can be mined legally or economically, and an inferred mineral resource may not be considered when assessing the economic viability of a mining project, and may not be converted to a mineral reserve. We report reserves and resources under the SEC's mining disclosure rules ("S-K 1300") and Canada's National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects ("NI 43-101") because we are a "reporting issuer" under Canadian securities laws. Unless otherwise indicated, all resource and reserve estimates contained in this press release have been prepared in accordance with S-K 1300 as well as NI 43-101.

    Non-GAAP Measures

    (Unaudited)

    Reconciliation of Total Cost of Sales to Cash Cost, Before By-product Credits and Cash Cost, After By-product Credits (non-GAAP) and All-In Sustaining Cost, Before By-product Credits and All-In Sustaining Cost, After By-product Credits (non-GAAP)

    The tables below present reconciliations between the most comparable GAAP measure of total cost of sales to the non-GAAP measures of (i) Cash Cost, Before By-product Credits, (ii) Cash Cost, After By-product Credits, (iii) AISC, Before By-product Credits and (iv) AISC, After By-product Credits for our operations and for the Company for the three months ended March 31, 2025, September 30, 2024, June 30, 2024, March 31, 2024, the three months and year ended December 31, 2024 and an estimate for the twelve months ended December 31, 2025.

    Cash Cost, After By-product Credits, per Ounce and AISC, After By-product Credits, per Ounce are measures developed by precious metals companies (including the Silver Institute and the World Gold Council) in an effort to provide a uniform standard for comparison purposes. There can be no assurance, however, that these non-GAAP measures as we report them are the same as those reported by other mining companies.

    Cash Cost, After By-product Credits, per Ounce is an important operating statistic that we utilize to measure each mine's operating performance. We use AISC, After By-product Credits, per Ounce as a measure of our mines' net cash flow after costs for reclamation and sustaining capital. This is similar to the Cash Cost, After By-product Credits, per Ounce non-GAAP measure we report, but also includes reclamation and sustaining capital costs. Current GAAP measures used in the mining industry, such as cost of goods sold, do not capture all the expenditures incurred to discover, develop and sustain silver and gold production. Cash Cost, After By-product Credits, per Ounce and AISC, After By-product Credits, per Ounce also allow us to benchmark the performance of each of our mines versus those of our competitors. As a silver and gold mining company, we also use these statistics on an aggregate basis - aggregating the Greens Creek and Lucky Friday mines to compare our performance with that of other silver mining companies. Similarly, these statistics are useful in identifying acquisition and investment opportunities as they provide a common tool for measuring the financial performance of other mines with varying geologic, metallurgical and operating characteristics.

    Cash Cost, Before By-product Credits and AISC, Before By-product Credits include all direct and indirect operating cash costs related directly to the physical activities of producing metals, including mining, processing and other plant costs, third-party refining expense, on-site general and administrative costs, royalties and mining production taxes. AISC, Before By-product Credits for each mine also includes reclamation and sustaining capital costs. AISC, Before By-product Credits for our consolidated silver properties also includes corporate costs for general and administrative expense and sustaining capital costs. By-product credits include revenues earned from all metals other than the primary metal produced at each unit. As depicted in the tables below, by-product credits comprise an essential element of our silver unit cost structure, distinguishing our silver operations due to the polymetallic nature of their orebodies.

    In addition to the uses described above, Cash Cost, After By-product Credits, per Ounce and AISC, After By-product Credits, per Ounce provide management and investors an indication of operating cash flow, after consideration of the average price, received from production. We also use these measurements for the comparative monitoring of performance of our mining operations period-to-period from a cash flow perspective.

    The Casa Berardi information below reports Cash Cost, After By-product Credits, per Gold Ounce and AISC, After By-product Credits, per Gold Ounce for the production of gold, their primary product, and by-product revenues earned from silver, which is a by-product at Casa Berardi. Only costs and ounces produced relating to units with the same primary product are combined to represent Cash Cost, After By-product Credits, per Ounce and AISC, After By-product Credits, per Ounce. Thus, the gold produced at our Casa Berardi unit is not included as a by-product credit when calculating Cash Cost, After By-product Credits, per Silver Ounce and AISC, After By-product Credits, per Silver Ounce for the total of Greens Creek and Lucky Friday, our combined silver properties. Similarly, the silver produced at our other two units is not included as a by-product credit when calculating the gold metrics for Casa Berardi. We have not disclosed cost per ounce statistics for the Keno Hill operation as it is in the production ramp-up phase and has not met our definition of commercial production. Determination of when those criteria have been met requires the use of judgment, and our definition of commercial production may differ from that of other mining companies.

    Reconciliation of Net Income (Loss ) (GAAP) and Debt (GAAP) to Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) and Net Debt (non-GAAP)

    This release refers to the non-GAAP measures of adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("Adjusted EBITDA"), which is a measure of our operating performance, and net debt to adjusted EBITDA for the last 12 months (or "LTM adjusted EBITDA"), which is a measure of our ability to service our debt. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as net income (loss) before the following items: interest expense, income and mining taxes, depreciation, depletion, and amortization expense, ramp-up and suspension costs, gains and losses on disposition of assets, foreign exchange gains and losses, write down of property, plant and equipment, fair value adjustments, net, interest and other income, provisions for environmental matters, stock-based compensation, provisional price gains and losses, monetization of zinc and lead hedges and inventory adjustments. Net debt is calculated as total debt, which consists of the liability balances for our Senior Notes, capital leases, and other notes payable, less the total of our cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments. Management believes that, when presented in conjunction with comparable GAAP measures, adjusted EBITDA and net debt to LTM adjusted EBITDA are useful to investors in evaluating our operating performance and ability to meet our debt obligations. The following table reconciles net income (loss) and debt to adjusted EBITDA and net debt:

    Reconciliation of Net Income (Loss) Applicable to Common Stockholders (GAAP) to Adjusted Net income (Loss) Applicable to Common Shareholders (non-GAAP)

    This release refers to a non-GAAP measure of adjusted net income (loss) applicable to common stockholders and adjusted net income (loss) per share, which are indicators of our performance. They exclude certain impacts which are of a nature which we believe are not reflective of our underlying performance. Management believes that adjusted net income (loss) per common share provides investors with the ability to better evaluate our underlying operating performance.

    Free cash flow is a non-GAAP measure calculated as cash provided by operating activities less additions to properties, plants and equipment. Cash provided by operating activities for our silver operations, the Greens Creek and Lucky Friday operating segments, excludes exploration and pre-development expense, as it is a discretionary expenditure and not a component of the mines' operating performance.
