(TSX / NYSE American: MAG) (“MAG”, or the “Company”) announces the Company’s unaudited consolidated financial results for the three months ended September 30, 2024 (“Q3 2024”). For details of the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements of the Company for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 (“Q3 2024 Financial Statements”) and management’s discussion and analysis for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 (“Q3 2024 MD&A”), please see the Company’s filings on the System for Electronic Document Analysis and Retrieval Plus (“SEDAR+”) at (www.sedarplus.ca) or on the Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis, and Retrieval (“EDGAR”) at (www.sec.gov).  

All amounts herein are reported in $000s of United States dollars (“US$”) unless otherwise specified (C$ refers to thousands of Canadian dollars).

KEY HIGHLIGHTS FOR Q3 2024 (on a 100% basis unless otherwise noted)

  • MAG reported net income of $22,292 ($0.22 per share) driven by income from Juanicipio (equity accounted) of $25,552, and adjusted EBITDA1 (as defined herein) of $55,720.

  • A total of 332,290 tonnes of ore at a silver head grade of 481 grams per tonne (“g/t”) (equivalent silver head grade2 735 g/t) was processed at Juanicipio.

  • Juanicipio achieved silver production and equivalent silver production2 of 4.9 and 7.1 million ounces, respectively.  

  • Juanicipio generated strong operating cash flow of $109,836 and free cash flow1 of $96,948.

  • Building on the robust cost performance of the first half of 2024, Juanicipio continued to improve delivering negative cash cost1 of $0.12 per silver ounce sold ($8.38 per equivalent silver ounce sold3) and all-in sustaining cost1 of $3.28 per silver ounce sold ($10.83 per equivalent silver ounce sold3).

  • With continued operational outperformance, as reported by Fresnillo, silver grades are expected to be at the top end of the revised grade guidance range (420g/t to 460g/t) for 2024.

  • Juanicipio returned a total of $22,649 in interest and loan principal repayments to MAG further augmenting MAG’s cash position to $113,491 at the end of the quarter.

CORPORATE

A copy of MAG’s 2023 sustainability report and 2023 ESG Data Table are available on the Company’s website at https://magsilver.com/esg/reports4.

  • On September 20, 2024, MAG and Apollo Silver Corp. (“Apollo”) entered into an exploration, earn-in and option agreement (the “Option”) pursuant to which Apollo has the option to acquire the Cinco de Mayo Project (“Cinco”). In order for Apollo to exercise the Option, Apollo is required to obtain the necessary licensing to access and conduct exploration activities on Cinco, and subsequently complete no less than 20,000 metres of drilling, all within a five-year period, and then finally issue consideration shares equivalent to 19.9% of the then issued and outstanding common shares of Apollo to MAG.

EXPLORATION

  • Juanicipio:
    • Underground infill drilling at Juanicipio continued in Q3 2024, primarily focused on upgrading mineralization in areas expected to be mined in the near to mid-term. During Q3 2024, 8,248 metres were drilled from underground. Results to date (mainly first half of 2024) focus on infill and confirm vein continuity including grade and thicknesses.
    • Surface drilling started in April 2024 and is currently focused on the Cañada-Honda structure with three rigs turning. Since the beginning of the program, nine holes have been completed, with three in progress. During Q3 2024, 9,768 metres were drilled from surface.
      • Results from three holes are showing thin mineralized epithermal veins with vein textures and negligible base metals consistent with being at high level and possibly above a productive boiling zone. Some holes were drilled deep enough to intercept the Juanicipio vein previous deepest holes including a 0.7 metre, base metal rich intercept extending the Juanicipio vein by 450 metres downdip.  
  • Deer Trail Project, Utah:
    • During Q3 2024, 1,745 metres have been drilled from surface. During the first nine months of the year, three holes have been completed, two at Carrisa and one in the Deer Trail Mine Corridor. One hole is currently in progress at Carissa.
  • Larder Project, Ontario:
    • Surface drilling at Twist, Swansea, Long Conglomerate and Kir Vit, totalled 12,661 metres in Q3 2024. Targets tested include:
      • the central and western portions of the Twist zone;
      • a large induced polarization (“IP”) target at Swansea that coincides with the recent drill program results and historic green carbonate altered komatiite horizons believed to be a second order splay off the Cadillac-Larder Break (“CLB”) at the Swansea zone;
      • an approximately 4km long conglomerate zone (which runs through the central portion of the property), that is a second order structure coincident with a parallel unconformity; and
      • the southeast extensions of the Kir Vit zone with four high priority geophysical targets to test in 2024.
    • Regional and field programs at the recently acquired Goldstake property led to outcrop stripping programs that discovered high grade gold values in both channel and grab samples at the T trench, including 32.1 g/t gold, 16.7 g/t gold, and 14.8 g/t gold.

(1)Equivalent silver head grades have been calculated using the following price assumptions to translate gold, lead and zinc to “equivalent” silver head grade in 2024: $23/oz silver, $1,950/oz gold, $0.95/lb lead and $1.15/lb zinc (2023: $21.85/oz silver, $1,775/oz gold, $0.915/lb lead and $1.30/lb zinc).
(2)Equivalent silver ounces sold have been calculated using realized prices to translate gold, lead and zinc to “equivalent” silver ounces sold (metal quantity, multiplied by metal price, divided by silver price). Three months ended September 30, 2024 realized prices: $30.16/oz silver, $2,587.65/oz gold, $0.91/lb lead and $1.29/lb zinc (three months ended September 30, 2023 realized prices: $23.51/oz silver, $1,911.99/oz gold, $1.00/lb lead and $1.15/lb zinc).


During the three months ended September 30, 2024, a total of 331,194 tonnes of ore were mined. This represents an increase of 11% over Q3 2023. Increases in mined tonnages at Juanicipio have been driven by the operational ramp-up of the mine towards steady state mining and milling targets.

During the three months ended September 30, 2024, a total of 332,290 tonnes of ore were processed through the Juanicipio plant. The 3% increase over Q3 2023 was mainly attributable to the Juanicipio plant operating at nameplate per operating day during 2024.

The silver head grade and equivalent silver head grade for the ore processed in the three months ended September 30, 2024 was 481 g/t and 735 g/t, respectively (three months ended September 30, 2023: 523 g/t and 760 g/t, respectively). The higher silver head grade and lower lead and zinc head grades in Q3 2023 were the result of processing ore from the upper levels of the mine, characterized by higher silver grade, compared to deeper areas in Q3 2024. Silver metallurgical recovery during the three months ended September 30, 2024 was 95% (three months ended September 30, 2023: 88%) reflecting the commencement of commercial pyrite and gravimetric concentrate production during Q2 2024 delivering incremental silver and gold recovery paired with ongoing optimizations in the processing plant.

The following table provides a summary of the total cash costs and all-in sustaining costs (“AISC”) of Juanicipio for the three months ended September 30, 2024, and 2023.

Sales increased by $51,348 during the three months ended September 30, 2024, mainly due to 26% higher realized metal prices and 13% higher metal volumes.

Production costs decreased by $5,186 due to Juanicipio depleting higher-cost stockpiles in Q3 2023 ($2,085), resulting from the operational ramp-up and processing facility commissioning in the first half of 2023, and lower mining, milling and general and administrative expenses (“G&A expenses”) ($3,101).

Depreciation increased by $1,794 impacted by an increased depreciable asset cost base as the Juanicipio mill achieved commercial production and commenced depreciating the processing facility and associated equipment in June 2023. In addition, Juanicipio processed 3% more tonnes during Q3 2024, impacting units of production depreciation.

Cash operating margin increased from 65% to 78%, mainly due to positive commodity price movements, reduced operating costs, as well as operational leverage.

Other expenses decreased by $4,701 mainly as a result of lower consulting and administrative expenses ($960), higher exchange gains ($1,542) and lower interest expense ($3,375) as Juanicipio reduced its outstanding shareholder loans balance by $223,192 ($206,712 loan repayments and $16,480 converted to equity) over the course of September 2023 to September 2024, offset by higher selling costs and other duties ($1,176) which were impacted by the commencement of commercial pyrite and gravimetric concentrate production during Q2 2024.

Taxes increased by $29,113 mainly due to higher taxable profits generated during Q3 2024, as well as non-cash deferred tax charges on fixed assets driven by a weakening in the Mexican peso versus the US dollar.

Such statements reflect the Company’s current views with respect to future events and are subject to certain known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions.

Forward-looking statements are necessarily based upon estimates and assumptions, which are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond the Company’s control and many of which, regarding future business decisions, are subject to change. Assumptions underlying the Company’s expectations regarding forward-looking statements contained in this release include, among others: MAG’s ability to carry on its various exploration and development activities including project development timelines, the timely receipt of required approvals and permits, the price of the minerals produced, the costs of operating, exploration and development expenditures, the impact on operations of the Mexican tax and legal regimes, MAG’s ability to obtain adequate financing, outbreaks or threat of an outbreak of a virus or other contagions or epidemic disease will be adequately responded to locally, nationally, regionally and internationally.

Although MAG believes the expectations expressed in such forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, such statements are not guarantees of future performance and actual results or developments may differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and many factors could cause actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements that may be expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements including amongst others: commodities prices; changes in expected mineral production performance; unexpected increases in capital costs or cost overruns; exploitation and exploration results; continued availability of capital and financing; general economic, market or business conditions; risks relating to the Company’s business operations; risks relating to the financing of the Company’s business operations; risks related to the Company’s ability to comply with restrictive covenants and maintain financial covenants pursuant to the terms of the Credit Facility; the expected use of the Credit Facility; risks relating to the development of Juanicipio and the minority interest investment in the same; risks relating to the Company’s property titles; risks related to receipt of required regulatory approvals; pandemic risks; supply chain constraints and general costs escalation in the current inflationary environment heightened by the invasion of Ukraine by Russia and the events relating to the Israel-Hamas war; risks relating to the Company’s financial and other instruments; operational risk; environmental risk; political risk; currency risk; market risk; capital cost inflation risk; risk relating to construction delays; the risk that data is incomplete or inaccurate; the risks relating to the limitations and assumptions within drilling, engineering and socio-economic studies relied upon in preparing economic assessments and estimates, including the updated Technical Report filed on March 27, 2024; as well as those risks more particularly described under the heading “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Information Form dated March 27, 2024 available under the Company’s profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca

Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those described herein. This list is not exhaustive of the factors that may affect any of the Company’s forward-looking statements. The Company’s forward-looking statements are based on the beliefs, expectations and opinions of management on the date the statements are made and, other than as required by applicable securities laws, the Company does not assume any obligation to update forward-looking statements if circumstances or management’s beliefs, expectations or opinions should change. For the reasons set forth above, investors should not attribute undue certainty to or place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.
