1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS

First Majestic Silver Corp. (the “Company” or “First Majestic”) is in the business of production, development, exploration, and acquisition of mineral properties with a focus on silver and gold production in North America. The Company owns three producing mines in Mexico consisting of the Santa Elena Silver/Gold Mine, the San Dimas Silver/Gold Mine, and the La Encantada Silver Mine. The Company also owns the Jerritt Canyon Gold Mine in Nevada, USA which the Company placed on temporary suspension on March 20, 2023 to focus on exploration, definition, and expansion of the mineral resources and optimization of mine planning and plant operations. The Company owns two additional mines in Mexico that are in suspension: the San Martin Silver Mine and the Del Toro Silver Mine, and several exploration stage projects. In addition, the Company is the 100% owner and operator of its own minting facility, First Mint, LLC ("First Mint").

First Majestic is incorporated in the Province of British Columbia, Canada, and is publicly listed on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) and the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) under the symbol “AG”, and on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange under the symbol “FMV”. The Company’s head office and principal address is located at Suite 1800 - 925 West Georgia Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6C 3L2, Canada.

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard (“IAS”) 34, “Interim Financial Reporting” of the International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB"). These condensed interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2023 as some disclosures from the annual consolidated financial statements have been condensed or omitted.

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis except for certain items that are measured at fair value including derivative financial instruments (Note 24) and marketable securities (Note 13). All dollar amounts presented are in thousands of United States dollars unless otherwise specified.

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company and its controlled subsidiaries. Control exists when the Company has the power, directly or indirectly, to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. Intercompany balances, transactions, income and expenses are eliminated on consolidation.

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements were prepared using accounting policies consistent with those in the audited consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2023 except as outlined in Note 3.

3. MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION, ESTIMATES AND JUDGMENTS

The Company’s management makes judgments in its process of applying the Company’s accounting policies in the preparation of its unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements. In addition, the preparation of the financial data requires that the Company’s management make assumptions and estimates of the impacts of uncertain future events on the carrying amounts of the Company’s assets and liabilities at the end of the reporting period, and 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.

In preparing the Company’s unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company applied the accounting policies, critical judgments and estimates disclosed in Note 3 of its audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023 and the following accounting policies, critical judgments and estimates in applying accounting policies:

3. MATERIAL ACCOUNTING POLICY INFORMATION, ESTIMATES AND JUDGMENTS (continued)
New and amended IFRS standards that are effective for the current year:

In the current year, the Company has applied the below amendments to IFRS Standards and Interpretations issued by the IASB that were effective for annual periods that begin on or after January 1, 2024. Their adoption has not had any material impact on the disclosures or on the amounts reported in these financial statements.

Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-Current with Covenants (Amendments to IAS 1)

The amendments aim to promote consistency in applying the requirements by helping companies determine whether, in the statement of financial position, debt and other liabilities with an uncertain settlement date should be classified as current (due or potentially due to be settled within one year) or non-current.

In addition, the amendment requires entities to disclose information to enable users of the financial statements to understand the risk that non-current liabilities with covenants could become repayable within twelve months. The amendments were applied effective January 1, 2024 and did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Lease Liability in a Sale and Leaseback (Amendments to IFRS 16)

The amendments require a seller-lessee to subsequently measure lease liabilities arising from a leaseback in a way that it does not recognize any amount of the gain or loss that relates to the right of use it retains. The new requirements do not prevent a seller-lessee from recognizing in profit or loss any gain or loss relating to the partial or full termination of a lease. A seller-lessee applies the amendments retrospectively in accordance with IAS 8 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors to sale and leaseback transactions entered into after the date of initial application. The amendments were applied effective January 1, 2024 and did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Supplier Financing Arrangements (Amendments to IAS 7 and IFRS 7)

The amendments require disclosures regarding the effects of supplier finance arrangements on their liabilities, cash flows and exposure to liquidity risk. Entities are required to disclose the following:

The terms and conditions;
The amount of the liabilities that are part of the arrangements, breaking out the amounts for which the suppliers have already received payment from the finance providers, and stating where the liabilities are reflected in the balance sheet;
Ranges of payment due dates; and
Liquidity risk information.

The amendments were applied effective January 1, 2024 and did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Future Changes in Accounting Policies Not Yet Effective in the Current Period

At the date of authorization of these financial statements, the Company has not applied the following new and revised IFRS Accounting Standards that have been issued but are not yet effective. Management does not expect that the adoption of the Standards listed below will have a material impact on the financial statements of the Company in future periods, except if indicated.

Lack of Exchangeability (Amendments to IAS 21)

The amendments clarify how an entity should assess whether a currency is exchangeable and how it should determine a spot exchange rate when exchangeability is lacking. In addition, the amendments require the disclosure of information that enables users of financial statements to understand the impact of a currency not being exchangeable.

The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2025, although earlier application is permitted. This amendment is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Future Changes in Accounting Policies Not Yet Effective in the Current Period (continued)
Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements (Amendment to IFRS 18)

In April 2024, the IASB released IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements. IFRS 18 replaces IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements while carrying forward many of the requirements in IAS 1. IFRS 18 introduces new requirements to: i) present specified categories and defined subtotals in the statement of earnings, ii) provide disclosures on management-defined performance measures (MPMs) in the notes to the financial statements, iii) improve aggregation and disaggregation. Some of the requirements in IAS 1 are moved to IAS 8 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors and IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures. The IASB also made minor amendments to IAS 7 Statement of Cash Flows and IAS 33 Earnings per Share in connection with the new standard. IFRS 18 requires retrospective application with specific transition provisions.

The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027, although earlier application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of IFRS 18 on its Company’s consolidated financial statements.

4. SEGMENTED INFORMATION

All of the Company’s operations are within the mining and metals industry and its major products are precious metals doré which are refined or smelted into pure silver and gold and sold to global metal brokers. Transfer prices between reporting segments are set on an arms-length basis in a manner similar to transactions with third parties. Coins and bullion cost of sales are based on transfer prices.

An operating segment is defined as a component of the Company that:
Engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses;
Whose operating results are reviewed regularly by the entity’s chief operating decision maker; and
For which discrete financial information is available.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company's significant operating segments include its three operating mines in Mexico, the Jerritt Canyon Gold Mine in Nevada, United States and its "non-producing properties" in Mexico which include the Del Toro and San Martin mines, which have been placed on suspension. In addition, as of January 1, 2024, the Company has added First Mint LLC ("First Mint") as a significant segment, which is inclusive of the Company's bullion store and its minting facility in Nevada, United States. Prior period information relating to First Mint was previously shown with "Others" and this corresponding comparative information has now been included within the First Mint segment. The Jerritt Canyon Gold mine was placed on temporary suspension as of March 20, 2023 to focus on exploration, definition, and expansion of the mineral resources and optimization of mine planning and plant operations. “Others” consists primarily of the Company’s corporate assets including cash and cash equivalents, other development and exploration properties (Note 15), debt facilities (Note 21), and corporate expenses which are not allocated to operating segments. The Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) evaluates segment performance based on mine operating earnings. Therefore, other income and expense items are not allocated to the segments.

Revenues$146,087 $133,211 $388,267 $436,855 

As at September 30, 2024, the Company had $0.8 million of unearned revenue (December 31, 2023 - $2.3 million) that has not satisfied performance obligations.

(a)Gold Stream Agreement with Sandstorm Gold Ltd.
The Santa Elena mine is subject to a gold streaming agreement with Sandstorm Gold Ltd. (“Sandstorm”), which requires the Company to sell to Sandstorm 20% of its gold production over the life of mine from its leach pad and a designated area of its underground operations. The selling price to Sandstorm is the lesser of the prevailing market price or $450 per ounce, subject to a 1% annual inflation adjustment. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company delivered nil ounces and 21 ounces (2023 - nil and 1,071 ounces) of gold to Sandstorm at an average price of $nil per ounce and $482 per ounce (2023 - $nil and $473 per ounce).

(b)    Net Smelter Royalty
The Santa Elena mine has a net smelter return ("NSR") royalty agreement with Orogen Royalties Inc. that provides them with a 2% NSR royalty from the production of the Ermitaño property. In addition, there is an underlying NSR royalty where Osisko Gold Royalties Ltd. retains a 2% NSR royalty from the sale of mineral products extracted from the Ermitaño property. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company has incurred $3.0 and $7.9 million (2023 - $2.3 and $5.9 million) in NSR royalty payments in connection with production from Ermitaño.
In 2022, the Company sold a portfolio of its existing royalty interests to Metalla Royalty and Streaming Limited ("Metalla"). Under the agreement, the Company has granted Metalla a 100% gross value royalty for the first 1,000 ounces of gold produced annually from the La Encantada property. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company has incurred $0.1 million and $0.3 million, respectively (2023 - $0.2 and $0.4 million) in NSR royalty payments from production at La Encantada.

(c) Gold Stream Agreement with Wheaton Precious Metals Corporation

In 2018, the San Dimas mine entered into a purchase agreement with Wheaton Precious Metals International ("WPMI"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Wheaton Precious Metals Corp., which entitles WPMI to receive 25% of the gold equivalent production (based on a fixed exchange ratio of 70 silver ounces to 1 gold ounce) at San Dimas in exchange for ongoing payments equal to the lesser of $600 (subject to a 1% annual inflation adjustment) and the prevailing market price for each gold equivalent ounce delivered. Should the average gold to silver ratio over a six-month period exceed 90:1 or fall below 50:1, the fixed exchange ratio would be increased to 90:1 or decreased to 50:1, respectively. The fixed gold to silver exchange ratio as of September 30, 2024, was 70:1.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company delivered 7,022 and 21,756 ounces (2023 - 9,695 and 31,700 ounces) of gold to WPMI at $637 and $634 per ounce (2023 - $631 and $628 per ounce).

14. DIVESTITURES

(a) La Guitarra Silver Mine

On May 24, 2022, the Company announced that it had entered into a share purchase agreement with Sierra Madre Gold and Silver Ltd. ("Sierra Madre"), to sell the Company's subsidiary, La Guitarra Compañia Minera S.A. de C.V. ("La Guitarra"), which owns the La Guitarra Silver Mine, to Sierra Madre for total consideration of approximately $35 million, consisting of 69,063,076 Sierra Madre common shares at a deemed price of $0.51 per share. Closing of the transaction was subject to customary closing conditions including approval of the Sierra Madre shareholders (which was obtained in December 2022), regulatory approval and that Sierra Madre raise a minimum of $7.7 million (CAD $10 million) in a private placement concurrent or prior to the sale.

On March 29, 2023, the Company completed the sale of La Guitarra to Sierra Madre and received total consideration of $33.2 million net of transaction costs, before working capital adjustments. Pursuant to the share purchase agreement, the purchase price increased to the extent the working capital of La Guitarra is greater than zero, and decreased to the extent the working capital is less than zero. Based on the carrying value of the asset at the time of disposal of $34.3 million, and the working capital adjustment of $0.2 million, the Company recorded a loss on disposition of $1.4 million. The Company began accounting for the common shares received from Sierra Madre as an equity security at FVTOCI (Note 13).

(b) La Parrilla Silver Mine

On December 7, 2022, the Company announced that it had entered into an asset purchase agreement with Silver Storm Mining Ltd. (formerly Golden Tag Resources Ltd.) (“Silver Storm”) to sell the La Parrilla Silver Mine for total consideration of up to $33.5 million, consisting of 143,673,684 common shares of Silver Storm at a deemed price of $0.16 per share, having an aggregate value as of the date of the agreement of $20 million, and up to $13.5 million in contingent consideration, in the form of three milestone payments, payable in either cash or Silver Storm shares, out of which $2.7 million is payable no later than 18 months following the closing date. The Company has also agreed to purchase $2.7 million of Silver Storm securities in a future Silver Storm equity financing of up to CAD $7.2 million. Closing the transaction was subject to customary closing conditions, including completion of such financing and receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals (which were obtained in May 2023). At March 31, 2023, the sale continued to be considered highly probable; therefore the assets and liabilities were presented as assets and liabilities held for sale and presented separately under current assets and current liabilities.

During the three months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recorded a write down on assets held-for-sale related to La Parrilla of $7.2 million, based on the change in value of Silver Storm's common shares at the end of the reporting period.

Of the $7.2 million write down related to La Parrilla, $3.7 million was allocated to depletable mining interest, $1.4 million was allocated to non-depletable mining interest, and the remaining $2.1 million was allocated to property, plant and equipment, resulting in a write down of $7.2 million, net of a $nil adjustment to the deferred tax liability. The recoverable amount of La Parrilla, being its FVLCD, was $14.9 million, net of estimated transaction costs, based on the expected proceeds from the sale.

On August 14, 2023, the Company completed the sale of La Parrilla to Silver Storm and received total consideration of $13.3 million net of transaction costs. Based on the price of Silver Storm’s common shares at the time of closing the transaction, the Company recorded a loss on disposition of $1.6 million. In addition, First Majestic participated in Silver Storm’s offering of subscription receipts (the “Subscription Receipts”) and purchased 18,009,000 Subscription Receipts at a price of CAD$0.20 per Subscription Receipt which, in accordance with their terms, have now converted into 18,009,000 Silver Storm common shares and 9,004,500 common share purchase warrants (the “Warrants”). Each Warrant is exercisable for one additional Silver Storm common share until August 14, 2026, at a price of CAD$0.34. The Company began accounting for the shares received from Silver Storm as an equity security at FVTOCI (Note 13).

15. MINING INTERESTS

Mining interests primarily consist of acquisition, development, exploration and exploration potential costs directly related to the Company’s operations and projects. Upon commencement of commercial production, mining interests for producing properties are depleted on a units-of-production basis over the estimated economic life of the mine. In applying the units of production method, depletion is determined using quantity of material extracted from the mine in the period as a portion of total quantity of material, based on reserves and resources, considered to be highly probable to be economically extracted over the life of mine plan.

The Company’s mining interests are comprised of the following:

Should the average gold to silver ratio over a six-month period exceed 90:1 or fall below 50:1, the fixed exchange ratio would be increased to 90:1 or decreased to 50:1, respectively. The fixed gold to silver exchange ratio as of September 30, 2024, was 70:1.

(b)Santa Elena Silver/Gold Mine, Sonora State, Mexico

(e) Springpole Silver Stream, Ontario, Canada
In July 2020, the Company completed an agreement with First Mining Gold Corp. (“First Mining”) to purchase 50% of the life of mine payable silver produced from the Springpole Gold Project (the “Springpole Silver Stream”), a development-stage gold project located in Ontario, Canada. First Majestic agreed to pay First Mining consideration of $22.5 million in cash and shares, in three milestone payments, for the right to purchase silver at a price of 33% of the silver spot price per ounce, to a maximum of $7.50 per ounce (subject to annual inflation escalation of 2%, commencing at the start of the third anniversary of production). Commencing with its production of silver, First Mining must deliver 50% of the payable silver which it receives from the offtaker within five business days of the end of each quarter.

The transaction consideration paid and payable by First Majestic is summarized as follows:

The first payment of $10.0 million, consisting of $2.5 million in cash and $7.5 million in First Majestic common shares (805,698 common shares), was paid to First Mining on July 2, 2020;
The second payment of $7.5 million, consisting of $3.75 million in cash and $3.75 million in First Majestic common shares (287,300 common shares), was paid on January 21, 2021 upon the completion and public announcement by First Mining of the results of a Pre-Feasibility Study for Springpole; and
The third payment, consisting of $2.5 million in cash and $2.5 million in First Majestic common shares (based on a 20-day volume weighted average price), will be paid upon receipt by First Mining of a Federal or Provincial Environmental Assessment approval for Springpole, which has not yet been received.

In connection with the streaming agreement, First Mining also granted First Majestic 30.0 million common share purchase warrants of First Mining (the “First Mining Warrants”), each of which will entitle the Company to purchase one common share of First Mining at CAD$0.40 over a period of five years. As a result of the distribution by First Mining of shares and warrants of Treasury Metals Inc. that was completed by First Mining on July 15, 2021, pursuant to the adjustment provisions of the First Mining Warrants, the exercise price of these warrants was reduced from CAD$0.40 to CAD$0.37, and the number of these warrants was increased from 30.0 million to 32.1 million. The fair value of the warrants was measured at $5.7 million using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. First Mining has the right to repurchase 50% of the silver stream from First Majestic for $22.5 million at any time prior to the commencement of production at Springpole, and if such a repurchase takes place, the Company will be left with a reduced silver stream of 25% of life of mine payable silver production from Springpole. First Mining is a related party with two independent board members who are also directors and/or officers of First Majestic.

17. RIGHT-OF-USE ASSETS

The Company entered into operating leases to use certain land, buildings, mining equipment and corporate equipment for its operations. The Company is required to recognize right-of-use assets representing its right to use these underlying leased assets over the lease term.

Right-of-use assets are initially measured at cost, equivalent to its obligation for payments over the term of the leases, and subsequently measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Depreciation is recorded on a straight-line basis over the shorter period of lease term and useful life of the underlying asset.

18. IMPAIRMENT OF NON-CURRENT ASSET

On March 20, 2023, the Company announced the temporary suspension of operations at the Jerritt Canyon Gold mine. Having considered the facts and circumstances including the temporary suspension of operations, heightened costs, and operating mine performance, the Company determined that impairment indicators existed for the Jerritt Canyon Gold mine. IFRS accounting standards require an entity to assess its assets for indicators of impairment at the cash-generating unit level based on their individual recoverable amounts. After the Company identified an indicator of impairment for Jerritt Canyon, the Company assessed the recoverable value of the Jerritt Canyon Gold Mine based on its FVLCD.

Key Assumptions

The FVLCD for Jerritt Canyon was determined using a multiple-based valuation method to estimate the value per in-situ ounce based on comparable market transactions. Valuation multiples applied to mineral resources and property, plant and equipment in the CGU, subject to impairment testing were determined as follows:

External valuation specialists were used to obtain a population of gold exploration, development and operating companies. The value of trading multiples for operating companies based on recent transactions was determined to be between $149 per ounce and $248 per ounce.
Management considered the $165 per ounce multiple to be the most reasonable estimate of the fair value of Jerritt Canyon, as companies in this range included companies in operations that had invested significantly in exploration, capital structure, an operating plant and had significant exploration potential.

18. IMPAIRMENT OF NON-CURRENT ASSET (continued)
The market approach used to determine FVLCD is significantly affected by changes in key assumptions of determining which population of comparable companies are most relevant and the price for these precedent transactions. In determining the comparability of public companies and precedent transactions, factors such as primary ore, location, stage of operations, reserves and resources, exploration potential, infrastructure, and accessibility for the underlying commodity were taken into consideration. The Company performed a sensitivity analysis on the key assumption being the population of comparable transactions and determined that a change in this assumption could lead to a different fair value of this asset. Management’s estimate of FVLCD is classified as a level 3 in the fair value hierarchy as the inputs are not based on observable market data.

In prior periods, management utilized the discounted cash flow method as the valuation technique to determine the recoverable amount. Recoverable values were determined with internal discounted cash flow economic models projected using management’s best estimate of recoverable mineral reserves and resources, future operating costs, capital expenditures and long-term foreign exchange rates and corroborated by in situ value of its Reserves and Resources. As Jerritt Canyon does not currently have a mine plan to estimate future cash flows, the market approach was used during the current period to determine the FVLCD.

Based on the Company's assessment, the Company concluded that the carrying value of the Jerritt Canyon mine had an estimated recoverable value, based on its FVLCD, below its carrying value at March 31, 2023. As a result, the following impairment charge was recognized during the first quarter of 2023:

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023
Impairment of non-current asset$125,200 
Deferred income tax recovery(31,237)
Impairment of non-current asset, net of tax$93,963 

As at September 30, 2024, the Company determined there were no significant events or changes in circumstances to indicate that the carrying amount of its non-current assets may not be recoverable, nor indicators that the recoverable amount of its previously impaired assets will exceed its carrying value. As such, no impairment or impairment reversal was recognized during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 (three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 - $nil million (Note 14) and $125.2 million impairment, respectively).

The impairment charge recognized for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 with respect to the Jerritt Canyon operating segment, which was recorded during the first quarter of 2023, was allocated as follows:

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023
Mining interest - producing properties$78,128 
Mining interests - exploration properties (non-depletable)17,388 
Property, plant and equipment29,684 
Impairment of non-current asset$125,200

(a)Convertible Debentures
Senior Convertible Debentures

On December 2, 2021, the Company issued $230 million of unsecured senior convertible debentures (the “Notes”). The Company received net proceeds of $222.8 million after transaction costs of $7.2 million. The Notes mature on January 15, 2027 and bear an interest rate of 0.375% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears in January and July of each year.

The Notes are convertible into common shares of the Company at any time prior to maturity at a conversion rate of 60.3865 common shares per $1,000 principal amount of Notes converted, representing an initial conversion price of $16.56 per common share, subject to certain anti-dilution adjustments. In addition, if certain fundamental changes occur, holders of the Notes may be entitled to an increased conversion rate.

The Company may not redeem the Notes before January 20, 2025 except in the event of certain changes in Canadian tax law. At any time on or after January 20, 2025 and until maturity, the Company may redeem all or part of the Notes for cash if the last reported share price of the Company’s common shares for 20 or more trading days in a period of 30 consecutive trading days exceeds 130% of the conversion price in effect on each such trading day. The redemption price is equal to the sum of: (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed and (ii) accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date.

21. DEBT FACILITIES (continued)

(a)Convertible Debentures (continued)

The Company is required to offer to purchase for cash all of the outstanding Notes upon a fundamental change, at a cash purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be purchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, up to the fundamental change purchase date.

The component parts of the convertible debentures, a compound instrument, are classified separately as financial liabilities and equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangement and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument. A conversion option that will be settled by the exchange of a fixed amount of cash or another financial asset for a fixed number of the Company's own equity instrument is an equity instrument.

At initial recognition, net proceeds of $222.8 million from the Notes were allocated into its debt and equity components. The fair value of the debt portion was estimated at $180.4 million using a discounted cash flow model method with an expected life of five years and a discount rate of 4.75%. This amount is recorded as a financial liability on an amortized cost basis using the effective interest method at an effective interest rate of 5.09% until extinguished upon conversion or at its maturity date.

The conversion option is classified as equity and was estimated based on the residual value of $42.3 million. This amount is not subsequently remeasured and will remain in equity until the conversion option is exercised, in which case, the balance recognized in equity will be transferred to share capital. Where the conversion option remains unexercised at the maturity date of the convertible note, the balance will remain in equity reserves. Deferred tax liability of $11.4 million related to taxable temporary difference arising from the equity portion of the convertible debenture was recognized in equity reserves.

Transaction costs of $7.2 million that relate to the issuance of the convertible debentures were allocated to the liability and equity components in proportion to the allocation of the gross proceeds. Transaction costs relating to the equity component are recognized directly in equity. Transaction costs relating to the liability component are included in the carrying amount of the liability component and are amortized over the life of the convertible debentures using the effective interest method.

(b)     Revolving Credit Facility

On June 28, 2024, the Company amended its senior secured revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Credit Facility") with the Bank of Montreal, BMO Harris Bank N.A., Bank of Nova Scotia, Toronto Dominion Bank and National Bank of Canada (the "syndicate") to amend the definition of indebtedness to exclude surety bonds, and to adjust the leverage covenant threshold from 3.00:1.00 (gross) to a 3.50:1.00 (net) leverage ratio. The maturity date of the credit facility continues to be June 29, 2026, with a credit limit of $175.0 million. Interest on the drawn balance will accrue at the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") plus an applicable range of 2.25% to 3.50% per annum while the undrawn portion is subject to a standby fee with an applicable range of 0.563% to 0.875% per annum, dependent on certain financial parameters of First Majestic. As at September 30, 2024, the applicable rates were 2.750% and 0.563% per annum, respectively.

21. DEBT FACILITIES (continued)

(b) Revolving Credit Facility (continued)

These debt facilities are guaranteed by certain subsidiaries of the Company and are also secured by a first priority charge against the assets of the Company, and a first priority pledge of shares of the Company’s subsidiaries.

The Revolving Credit Facility includes financial covenants, to be tested quarterly on a consolidated basis, requiring First Majestic to maintain the following: (a) a net leverage ratio based on net indebtedness to rolling four quarters adjusted EBITDA of not more than 3.50 to 1.00; and (b) an interest coverage ratio, based on rolling four quarters adjusted EBITDA divided by interest payments, of not less than 4.00 to 1.00. The debt facilities also provide for negative covenants customary for these types of facilities and allows the Company to enter into finance leases, excluding any leases that would have been classified as operating leases in effect immediately prior to the implementation of IFRS 16 - Leases, of up to $50.0 million. As at September 30, 2024, the Company was in compliance with all of its debt covenants.

At September 30, 2024, the Company had letters of credit outstanding in the amount of $35.4 million (December 2023 - $30.4 million) as part of ongoing reclamation and mine closure obligations. As at September 30, 2024 the undrawn portion of the Revolving Credit Facility net of the letters of credit and drawdowns is $139.6 million (December 2023 - $124.6 million).

22. LEASE LIABILITIES

The Company has Category I leases, Category II leases and equipment financing liabilities for various mine and plant equipment, office space and land. Category I leases and equipment financing obligations require underlying assets to be pledged as security against the obligations and all of the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of the underlying asset being transferred to the Company. For Category II leases, the Company controls but does not have ownership of the underlying right-of-use assets.

Lease liabilities are initially measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be readily determined, the Company's incremental borrowing rate. Lease liabilities are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method.

Certain lease agreements may contain lease and non-lease components, which are generally accounted for separately. For certain equipment leases, such as vehicles, the Company has elected to account for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component.

The Company files prospectus supplements to its short form base shelf prospectus, pursuant to which the Company may, at its discretion and from time-to-time, sell common shares of the Company. The sale of common shares has taken place through "at-the-market" ("ATM") distributions", as defined in National Instrument 44-102 Shelf Distributions, directly on the New York Stock Exchange. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company sold 1,719,634 common shares under its ATM program in existence at that time at an average price of $8.75 per common share for gross proceeds of $15.0 million, or net proceeds of $14.4 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company sold 12,200,000 common shares under its ATM program in existence at that time at an average price of $6.51 per common share for gross proceeds of $79.5 million, or net proceeds of $77.9 million. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, no shares were sold under the 2022 or 2023 ATM program. As at September 30, 2024, the Company incurred $nil (2023 - $2.2 million) in transaction costs in relation to the 2022 and 2023 ATM programs.

On August 3, 2023, the Company filed a final short form base shelf prospectus in each province of Canada (other than Québec), and a registration statement on Form F-10 in the United States, which allows the Company to undertake offerings (including by way of an ATM) under one or more prospectus supplements of various securities listed in the shelf prospectus, up to an aggregate total of $500.0 million, over a 25-month period that ends on September 3, 2025.

On February 22, 2024, the Company entered into an equity distribution agreement with BMO Capital Markets Corp. and TD Securities (USA) LLC (collectively, the "Agents") and filed a prospectus supplement to its short form base shelf prospectus dated August 3, 2023, pursuant to which the Company may, at its discretion and from time-to-time sell through the Agents, common shares of the Company for aggregate gross proceeds of up to $150.0 million through an ATM program (the "2024 ATM Program"). During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, 14,300,000 common shares were sold under the 2024 ATM Program at an average price of $6.73 per share, for gross proceeds of $96.2 million or net proceeds of $93.9 million. As at September 30, 2024, the Company incurred $2.3 million in transaction costs in relation to the 2024 ATM Program.

On September 12, 2024 the Company renewed its ongoing share repurchase program (the “Share Repurchase Program”) which permits it to repurchase up to 10,000,000 shares (3.32% of the Company's issued and outstanding shares as at September 4, 2024) up to September 12, 2025 The Share Repurchase Program is a “normal course issuer bid” and will be carried out through the facilities of the Toronto Stock Exchange and alternative Canadian marketplaces. All common shares, if any, purchased pursuant to the Share Repurchase Program will be cancelled. The Company believes that from time to time, the market price of its common shares may not fully reflect the underlying value of the Company's business and its future business prospects. The Company believes that at such times, the purchase of common shares would be in the best interest of the Company. During the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Company repurchased an aggregate of nil common shares.

(c) Restricted Share Units
Under the 2022 LTIP, the Company may award to its directors, employees and consultants non-transferable Restricted Share Units ("RSUs") based on the Company's share price at the date of grant. Unless otherwise stated, the awards typically have a graded vesting schedule over a three-year period and can be settled either in cash or equity upon vesting at the discretion of the Company.

(d) Performance Share Units
Under the 2022 LTIP the Company may award to its directors, employees and consultants non-transferable Performance Share Units ("PSUs"). The amount of units to be issued on the vesting date will vary from 0% to 200% of the number of PSUs granted, depending on the Company’s total shareholder return compared to the return of a selected group of peer companies over a three-year period commencing as of the grant date. Unless otherwise stated, the PSU awards typically vest three years from the grant date and can be settled either in cash or equity upon vesting at the discretion of the Company. The fair value of a PSU is based on the Company's share price at the date of grant and will be adjusted based on the number of common shares actually issuable in respect of the PSU, which shall be determined on the vesting date. Any PSUs granted prior to May 26, 2022 continue to be governed by the terms of the prior 2019 LTIP.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, a total of 500,930 PSUs were awarded by the Company to employees under the 2022 LTIP, of which 30,430 PSUs may only be settled in cash, resulting in a total expense of $45.4 thousand (2023 - $nil).

24. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RELATED RISK MANAGEMENT

The Company’s financial instruments and related risk management objectives, policies, exposures and sensitivity related to financial risks are summarized below.

(a)     Fair value and categories of financial instruments

Financial instruments included in the condensed interim consolidated statements of financial position are measured either at fair value or amortized cost. Estimated fair values for financial instruments are designed to approximate amounts for which the instruments could be exchanged in an arm’s-length transaction between knowledgeable and willing parties.

The Company uses various valuation techniques in determining the fair value of financial assets and liabilities based on the extent to which the fair value is observable. The following fair value hierarchy is used to categorize and disclose the Company’s financial assets and liabilities held at fair value for which a valuation technique is used.

Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: All inputs which have a significant effect on the fair value are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full contractual term.
Level 3: Inputs which have a significant effect on the fair value are not based on observable market data.

During the three months ended June 30, 2023, marketable securities valued at $19.6 million were transferred from Level 3 to Level 1 due to the resumption of trading of Sierra Madre shares on the TSX Venture on June 5, 2023. Level 1 assets include those assets in which unadjusted quoted prices in active markets are accessible to the Company at the measurement date.

There were no transfers between levels 1, 2, and 3 during the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

The table below summarizes the valuation methods used to determine the fair value of each financial instrument:
Financial Instruments Measured at Fair ValueValuation Method
Marketable securities - common sharesMarketable securities and silver future derivatives are valued based on quoted market prices for identical assets in an active market (Level 1) as at the date of statements of financial position. Marketable securities - stock warrants are valued using the Black-Scholes model based on the observable market inputs (Level 2).

24. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RELATED RISK MANAGEMENT (continued)

(a)     Fair value and categories of financial instruments (continued)

The following table presents the Company’s fair value hierarchy for financial assets and financial liabilities that are measured at fair value:
 September 30, 2024December 31, 2023
  Fair value measurement Fair value measurement
 Carrying valueLevel 1Level 2Carrying valueLevel 1Level 2
Financial assets      
Marketable securities (Note 13)
$63,994 $63,859 $135 $62,380 $61,749 $631 

The Company’s objectives when managing capital are to maintain financial flexibility to continue as a going concern while optimizing growth and maximizing returns of investments from shareholders.

In 2023, an impairment was recorded for the Jerritt Canyon mine bringing the carrying value of the asset to its recoverable amount, being its FVLCD (Note 18). Management’s estimate of FVLCD is classified as a level 3 in the fair value hierarchy as the inputs are not based on observable market data. During the three months ended June 30, 2023, an additional write down was recorded for the La Parrilla mine (Note 14), bringing the carrying value of the asset to its recoverable amount, being its FVLCD. The valuation technique used in the calculation of the fair value of consideration receivable, is categorized as Level 2 as it is based on the selling price in the market.

(b) Capital risk management

The Company monitors its capital structure and based on changes in operations and economic conditions, may adjust the structure by repurchasing shares, issuing new shares, issuing new debt or retiring existing debt. The Company prepares annual budget and quarterly forecasts to facilitate the management of its capital requirements. The annual budget is approved by the Company’s Board of Directors.

The capital of the Company consists of equity (comprising of issued capital, equity reserves and retained earnings or accumulated deficit), debt facilities, lease liabilities, net of cash and cash equivalents as follows:

 September 30,
2024
December 31,
2023
Equity$1,377,310 $1,358,120 
Debt facilities206,797 219,812 
Lease liabilities26,724 36,702 
Less: cash and cash equivalents(154,730)(125,581)
 $1,456,101 $1,489,053 

The Company’s investment policy is to invest its cash in highly liquid short-term investments with maturities of 90 days or less, selected with regards to the expected timing of expenditures from operations. The Company expects that its available capital resources will be sufficient to carry out its development plans and operations for at least the next 12 months.

The Company is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements with the exception of complying with covenants under the debt facilities (Note 21(b)) and lease liabilities (Note 22(b)). As at September 30, 2024, the Company was in compliance with all of its debt covenants.

24. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RELATED RISK MANAGEMENT (continued)
(c) Financial risk management
The Company thoroughly examines the various financial instruments and risks to which it is exposed and assesses the impact and likelihood of those risks. These risks may include credit risk, liquidity risk, currency risk, commodity price risk, and interest rate risk. Where material, these risks are reviewed and monitored by the Board of Directors.

Credit Risk
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss if a customer or counterparty fails to meet its contractual obligations. The Company’s credit risk relates primarily to chartered banks, trade receivables in the ordinary course of business, value added taxes receivable and other receivables.

As at September 30, 2024, net VAT receivable was $52.1 million (December 31, 2023 - $52.7 million), of which $13.9 million (December 31, 2023 - $27.5 million) relates to La Encantada, $12.2 million relates to Santa Elena (December 31, 2023 - $25.6 million), and $8.8 million (December 31, 2023 - $29.0 million) relates to San Dimas.

The Company sells and receives payment upon delivery of its silver doré and by-products primarily through four international customers. All of the Company’s customers have good ratings and payments of receivables are scheduled, routine and fully received within 60 days of submission; therefore, the balance of trade receivables owed to the Company in the ordinary course of business is not significant.

The carrying amount of financial assets recorded in the consolidated financial statements represents the Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk. With the exception to the above, the Company believes it is not exposed to significant credit risk.
Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they arise. The Company manages liquidity risk by monitoring actual and projected cash flows and matching the maturity profile of financial assets and liabilities. Cash flow forecasting is performed regularly to ensure that there is sufficient capital in order to meet short-term business requirements, after taking into account cash flows from operations and our holdings of cash and cash equivalents.

The following table summarizes the maturities of the Company’s financial liabilities and commitments as at September 30, 2024 based on the undiscounted contractual cash flows:

 $366,633 $115,044 $243,358 $7,926 $305 

At September 30, 2024, the Company had working capital of $238.2 million (December 31, 2023 – $188.9 million). Total available liquidity at September 30, 2024 was $377.9 million (December 31, 2023 - $313.6 million), including $139.6 million of undrawn revolving credit facility (December 31, 2023 - $124.6 million).

The Company believes it has sufficient cash on hand, combined with cash flows from operations, to meet operating requirements as they arise for at least the next 12 months. If the Company needs additional liquidity to meet obligations, the Company may consider drawing on its debt facility, securing additional debt financing and/or equity financing.

24. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RELATED RISK MANAGEMENT (continued)
(c) Financial risk management (continued)
Currency Risk

The Company is exposed to foreign exchange risk primarily relating to financial instruments that are denominated in Canadian dollars or Mexican pesos, which would impact the Company’s net earnings or loss. To manage foreign exchange risk, the Company may occasionally enter into short-term foreign currency derivatives, such as forwards and options, to hedge its cash flows.

The sensitivity of the Company’s net earnings or loss and comprehensive income or loss due to changes in the exchange rates of the Canadian dollar and the Mexican peso against the U.S. dollar is included in the table below:
 September 30, 2024
 Cash and cash equivalentsRestricted cashValue added taxes receivableOther financial assetsTrade and other payablesEffect of +/- 10% change in currency
Canadian Dollar$8,312 $— $— $1,152 ($5,196)$427

$22,979 $84,751 $51,983 $1,152 ($59,867)$10,100 

From time to time, the Company utilizes certain derivatives to manage its foreign exchange exposures to the Mexican Peso. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company had an unrealized gain of $nil (2023 - $nil) on fair value adjustments to its foreign currency derivatives. As at September 30, 2024, the Company does not hold any foreign currency derivatives (December 31, 2023 - $nil).

Commodity Price Risk

The Company is exposed to commodity price risk on silver and gold, which have a direct and immediate impact on the value of its related financial instruments, non-financial items and net earnings. The Company’s revenues are directly dependent on commodity prices that have shown volatility and are beyond the Company’s control. The Company does not use long-term derivative instruments to hedge its commodity price risk to silver or gold.

The following table summarizes the Company’s exposure to commodity price risk and their impact on net earnings:
 September 30, 2024
 Effect of +/- 10% change in metal prices
 SilverGoldTotal
Metals in inventory$2,383 $790 $3,173 
 $2,383 $790 $3,173 

Interest Rate Risk
The Company is exposed to interest rate risk on its short-term investments, debt facilities and lease liabilities. The Company monitors its exposure to interest rates and has not entered into any derivative contracts to manage this risk. The Company’s interest-bearing financial assets comprise of cash and cash equivalents which bear interest at a mixture of variable and fixed rates for pre-set periods of time.

As at September 30, 2024, the Company’s exposure to interest rate risk on interest bearing liabilities is limited to its debt facilities and lease liabilities. Based on the Company’s interest rate exposure at September 30, 2024, a 25 basis points increase or decrease in the market interest rate does not have a significant impact on net earnings or loss.

The Company is subject to various claims and legal proceedings covering a wide range of matters that arise in the ordinary course of business activities. Each of these matters is subject to various uncertainties and it is possible that some of these other matters may be resolved in a manner that is unfavourable to the Company which may result in a material adverse impact on the Company's financial performance, cash flow or results of operations. First Majestic carries liability insurance coverage and establishes provisions for matters that are probable and can be reasonably estimated, however there can be no guarantee that the amount of such coverage is sufficient to protect against all potential liabilities. In addition, the Company may in the future be subjected to regulatory investigations or other proceedings and may be involved in disputes with other parties in the future which may result in a significant impact on our financial condition, cash flow and results of operations.

(b) Primero Tax Rulings

When Primero, the previous owner of San Dimas acquired the San Dimas Mine in August 2010, it assumed the obligations under a Silver Purchase Agreement (“Old Stream Agreement”) that required its subsidiary, PEM, to sell exclusively to Wheaton Precious Metals (“WPMI”) up to 6 million ounces silver produced from the San Dimas Mine, and 50% of silver produced thereafter, at the lower of: (i) the spot market price and (ii) $4.014 per ounce plus an annual increase of 1% (“PEM Realized Price”). In May 2018, the Old Stream Agreement was terminated between WPMI and Silver Trading (Barbados) Limited (“STB”) in connection with the Company entering into a new stream agreement with WPMI concurrent with the acquisition of Primero by the Company.

In order to reflect the commercial terms and the effects of the Old Stream Agreement, for Mexican income tax purposes, PEM recognized the revenue on these silver sales based on the PEM Realized Price instead of at spot market prices.

To obtain tax and legal assurance that the Mexican tax authority, Servicio de Administración Tributaria (“SAT”) would accept the PEM Realized Price as the transfer price to calculate Mexican income taxes payable by PEM, a mutually binding Advance Pricing Agreement (“APA”) was entered into with the SAT for taxation years 2010 to 2014. On October 4, 2012, the SAT confirmed that based on the terms of the APA, the PEM Realized Price could be used as PEM’s basis for calculating taxes owed for the silver sold under the Old Stream Agreement.

In August 2015, the SAT commenced a legal process seeking to retroactively nullify the APA.

In 2019, the SAT issued reassessments for the 2010 to 2012 tax years in the total amount of $317.0 million (6,222 million MXN) inclusive of interest, inflation, and penalties. In 2021, the SAT also issued a reassessment against PEM for the 2013 tax year in the total amount of $167.6 million (3,289 million MXN) and in 2023, the SAT issued reassessments for the 2014, 2015, and 2016 tax years in the total amount of $427.2 million (8,385 million MXN) inclusive of interest, inflation, and penalties (collectively, the “Reassessments”). For the 2017 and 2018 tax years, the SAT has initiated audits that have not yet been concluded, and therefore, tax assessments for these years have yet to be issued. The Company believes that the Reassessments fail to recognize the applicability of a valid transfer pricing methodology. The major items in the Reassessments include determination of revenue based on spot market prices of silver, denial of the deductibility of interest expense and service fees, SAT technical error related to double counting of taxes, and interest and penalties.

The Company continues to defend the APA in domestic legal proceedings in Mexico, and the Company has also requested resolution of the transfer pricing dispute pursuant to the Mutual Agreement Procedure (“MAP”), under the relevant avoidance of double taxation treaties, between the competent tax authorities of Mexico, Canada, Luxembourg and Barbados. The SAT has refused to take the necessary steps under the MAP processes contained in the three tax treaties. The Company believes that by its refusal, Mexico is in breach of its international obligations regarding double taxation treaties. Furthermore, the Company continues to believe that the APA remains valid and legally binding on the SAT.

26. CONTINGENCIES AND OTHER MATTERS (continued)
(b) Primero Tax Rulings (continued)
The Company continues to pursue all available domestic and international remedies under the laws of Mexico and under the relevant tax treaties. Furthermore, as discussed further below, the Company has also made claims against Mexico under Chapter 11 of the North American Free Trade Agreement (“NAFTA”) for violation of its international law obligations.

Domestic Remedies

In September 2020, the Company was served with a decision of the Federal Tax Court seeking to nullify the APA granted to PEM. The Company filed an appeal of the decision to the Mexican Circuit Courts on November 30, 2020. As two writs of certiorari were filed before the Mexican Supreme Court of Justice, on April 15, 2021, the Plenary of the Supreme Court i) admitted one of those writs, ii) requested the Circuit Court to send the appeal file to them, and iii) assigned such writ to the Second Chamber of the Supreme Court for issuing the corresponding decision. Both writs of certiorari were withdrawn in December 2022. The challenge filed by the Company was returned to the Second Collegiate Court on February 14, 2023 and on December 5, 2023, the Second Collegiate Court issued a decision, which was formally notified to the Company on January 4, 2024.

In such decision, the Second Collegiate Court partially granted constitutional protection to the Company with respect to certain matters, but not others.

Accordingly, on January 18, 2024, PEM filed an extraordinary appeal to the Mexican Supreme Court of Justice with respect to PEM’s constitutional arguments that were not accepted in the Second Collegiate Court's decision, and following the admission of the appeal, the Second Chamber of the Supreme Court of Justice assumed jurisdiction over the appeal on June 20, 2024. On September 18, 2024, the Supreme Court issued its decision, which was formally notified to the Company on October 15, 2024. The Supreme Court dismissed the Company’s appeal regarding the constitutional arguments, but affirmed the validity of certain precedents of the Supreme Court which the Company believes are favourable to PEM and that were not considered by the Federal Tax Court in its original decision in September 2020. Accordingly, the case will be sent back to the Federal Tax Court to issue a new decision, taking into account such Supreme Court precedents. PEM is currently waiting for the case to be returned to the Federal Tax Court, and expects that a new decision by the Federal Tax Court will be issued in the second half of 2025.
International Remedies

i. NAFTA APA Claim

In respect of the APA, the Company submitted an Arbitration Request dated March 1, 2021 to the International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes ("ICSID"), on its own behalf and on behalf of PEM, pursuant to Chapter 11 of NAFTA (the “NAFTA APA Claim”). The NAFTA Arbitration Panel (the “Tribunal”) was fully constituted on August 20, 2021. Various procedural filings have since been made by the Company and Mexico.

Of note, on May 26, 2023, the Tribunal partially granted certain provisional measures requested by the Company, issuing an order for Mexico to permit the withdrawal of the Company’s VAT refunds for the period as of January 4, 2023 that had been deposited by the SAT into a frozen bank account, and to deposit all future VAT refunds into an account which shall remain freely accessible by the Company (the "PM Decision"). The PM Decision was upheld by the Tribunal on September 1, 2023, in response to a request from Mexico to revoke the decision. As a result, Mexico is obligated to comply with the PM Decision which requires payment of VAT refunds owing to PEM as of January 4, 2023 and into the future until the final award is rendered by the Tribunal. On July 9, 2024, the Company received a transfer of $11.0 million (198.4 million MXN) from the frozen bank account to a new bank account of PEM that the Company had opened in July 2023. The transfer of such funds was carried out by Mexico in furtherance of its obligations under the PM Decision.

In addition, in response to the Company’s counter-arguments to a jurisdictional objection filed by Mexico in late July 2023, the Tribunal dismissed Mexico’s objection, agreeing with the Company that the recovery of VAT refunds under the NAFTA VAT Claim (as defined in the section below) does not breach the waiver under NAFTA (i.e. the NAFTA APA Claim and the NAFTA VAT Claim are not in respect of the same measures).

26. CONTINGENCIES AND OTHER MATTERS (continued)
(b) Primero Tax Rulings (continued)
On February 12, 2024, Mexico filed a request (the “Consolidation Request”) with ICSID pursuant to the procedure in Article 1126 of NAFTA to consolidate the NAFTA APA Claim and the NAFTA VAT Claim into one arbitration proceeding. A separate three-person tribunal to consider the Consolidation Request (the “Consolidation Tribunal”) was constituted on May 8, 2024, and the first procedural hearing of the Consolidation Tribunal took place on July 16, 2024.

In order to expedite the arbitration proceedings, the Company has advised the Consolidation Tribunal and Mexico that it is proposing to add claims covered by the NAFTA VAT Claim to the NAFTA APA Claim as ancillary claims. The Tribunal with jurisdiction over the NAFTA APA Claim has, as of July 15, 2024, granted the Company the right to introduce the ancillary claims to the NAFTA APA Claim, which will make it unnecessary for the NAFTA VAT Claim to proceed separately from the NAFTA APA Claim. On October 1, 2024, the Company submitted its request to the Secretary-General of ICSID to discontinue the NAFTA VAT Claim pursuant to Rule 56 of the 2022 ICSID Arbitration Rules. Mexico objected to the discontinuance on October 7, 2024, so pursuant to Rule 56, the proceedings with respect to the NAFTA VAT Claim will continue. In addition, Mexico filed its Memorial in support of the Consolidation Request on October 7, 2024. The Company is currently preparing its Counter-Memorial, which it is required to file by December 6, 2024.

We expect that the Consolidation Tribunal will make its decision in respect of the Consolidation Request in Q1 2025. Until such a decision has been made, proceedings in both the NAFTA APA Claim and the NAFTA VAT Claim have been suspended. However, any decisions rendered to date by the Tribunal in the NAFTA APA Claim, including but not limited to the PM Decision, remain in force during such suspension.

If the SAT’s attempts to retroactively nullify the APA are successful, the SAT can be expected to enforce any Reassessments for 2010 through 2014 against PEM in respect of its sales of silver pursuant to the Old Stream Agreement. Such an outcome would likely have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. Should the Company ultimately be required to pay tax on its silver revenues based on spot market prices without any mitigating adjustments, the incremental income tax for the years 2010-2019 would be $277.95 million (5,456 million MXN), before taking into consideration interest or penalties.

Based on the Company’s consultation with third party advisors, the Company believes PEM filed its tax returns in compliance with applicable Mexican law and that the APA is valid, therefore, at this time, no liability has been recognized in the financial statements with respect to this matter.

To the extent it is ultimately determined that the pricing for silver sales under the Old Stream Agreement is significantly different from the PEM Realized Price, and while PEM would have rights of appeal in connection with any reassessments, it is likely to have a materially adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial position and results of operations.

ii. NAFTA VAT Claim

On March 31, 2023, the Company filed a new Notice of Intent on its own behalf and on behalf of PEM under the "legacy investment" claim provisions contained in Annex 14-C of the Canada-United States-Mexico Agreement (“CUSMA”) and Chapter 11 of NAFTA to invite the Government of Mexico to engage in discussions to resolve the dispute regarding the ongoing denial of access to PEM’s VAT refunds ("NAFTA VAT Claim") within the stipulated 90-day consultation period. The Company submitted its Arbitration Request for the NAFTA VAT Claim to ICSID on June 29, 2023 in order to preserve its legacy claim within NAFTA's applicable limitation period, and the Arbitration Request was registered by ICSID on July 21, 2023. As a result of the Consolidation Request (described above), the NAFTA VAT Claim has been suspended. As discussed above, on October 1, 2024, the Company submitted its request to the Secretary-General of ICSID to discontinue the NAFTA VAT Claim pursuant to Rule 56 of the 2022 ICSID Arbitration Rules. Mexico objected to the discontinuance on October 7, 2024, so pursuant to Rule 56, the proceedings with respect to the NAFTA VAT Claim will continue.

While the Company remains confident in its position with regards to its two NAFTA claims, it continues to engage with the Government of Mexico in consultation discussions so as to amicably resolve these disputes.

26. CONTINGENCIES AND OTHER MATTERS (continued)
(c) La Encantada Tax Re-assessments (continued)

In December 2019, as part of the ongoing annual audits of the tax returns of Minera La Encantada S.A. de C.V. (“MLE”) and Corporacion First Majestic S.A. de C.V. (“CFM”), the SAT issued tax assessments for fiscal 2012 and 2013 for corporate income tax in the amount of $36.9 million (724 million MXN) and $26.8 million (527 million MXN) including interest, inflation and penalties, respectively. In December 2022, the SAT issued tax assessments to MLE for fiscal years 2014 and 2015 for corporate
income tax in the amount of $16.8 million (329 million MXN) and $211.1 million (4,144 million MXN). In 2023, the SAT issued a tax assessment to MLE for the fiscal year 2016 for corporate income tax in the amount of $3.0 million (58 million MXN). The major items relate to forward silver purchase agreement and denial of the deductibility of mine development costs and service fees. The Company continues to defend the validity of the forward silver purchase agreement and will vigorously dispute the assessments that have been issued. The Company, based on advice from legal and financial advisors, believes MLE’s tax filings were appropriate and its tax filing position is correct, therefore no liability has been recognized in the financial statements.
(d) San Martin Tax Re-assessments

In 2023, as part of the ongoing annual audits of the tax returns of Minera El Pilon S.A. de C.V. (“MEP”), the SAT issued tax assessments for fiscal 2014, 2015 and 2016 for corporate income tax in the total amount of $25.1 million (493 million MXN) including interest, inflation and penalties. In 2024, the SAT issued a tax assessment for fiscal 2017 for corporate income tax in the amount of $3.2 million (63 million MXN) including interest, inflation, and penalties. The major items relate to forward silver purchase agreement and denial of the deductibility of mine development costs. The Company continues to defend the validity of the forward silver purchase agreement and will vigorously dispute the assessments that have been issued. The Company, based on advice from legal and financial advisors, believes MEP’s tax filings were appropriate and its tax filing position is correct, therefore no liability has been recognized in the financial statements.

(e) La Parrilla Tax Re-assessments

In 2023 and 2024, as part of the ongoing annual audits of the tax returns of First Majestic Plata S.A. de C.V. (“FMP”), the SAT issued tax assessment for fiscal 2014, 2015, and 2016 for corporate income tax in the total amount of $60.4 million (1,186 million MXN) including interest, inflation and penalties. The major items relate to forward silver purchase agreement and denial of the deductibility of mine development costs. The Company continues to defend the validity of the forward silver purchase agreement and will vigorously dispute the assessments that have been issued. The Company, based on advice from legal and financial advisors, believes FMP’s tax filings were appropriate and its tax filing position is correct, therefore no liability has been recognized in the financial statements.

(f) Del Toro Tax Re-assessments

In 2023, as part of the ongoing annual audits of the tax returns of First Majestic Del Toro S.A. de C.V. (“FMDT”), the SAT issued tax assessment for fiscal 2015 and 2016 for corporate income tax in the total amount of $25.1 million (493 million MXN) including interest, inflation and penalties. The major items relate to and denial of the deductibility of mine development costs, refining costs, and other expenses. The Company continues to defend the validity of the expenses and will vigorously dispute the assessments that have been issued. The Company, based on advice from legal and financial advisors, believes FMDT’s tax filings were appropriate and its tax filing position is correct, therefore no liability has been recognized in the financial statements.

(g) CFM Tax Re-assessments

In 2023, as part of the ongoing annual audits of the tax returns of CFM, the SAT issued tax assessment for fiscal 2016 for corporate income tax in the total amount of $73.8 million (1,449 million MXN) including interest, inflation and penalties. The major item relates to planning that took place post-acquisition of Santa Elena (via the acquisition of SilverCrest Mines Inc. on October 1, 2015) at the Canadian level. Mexico contends a right to tax a disposition of the shares of SilverCrest Mines Inc. by First Majestic Silver Corp. although the transaction in question involved the disposition of the shares of one Canadian company by another Canadian company and was reported for tax purposes in Canada. The Company continues to defend the validity of the transaction in question and will vigorously dispute the assessments that have been issued. The Company, based

on advice from legal and financial advisors, believes CFM’s tax filings were appropriate and its tax filing position is correct, therefore no liability has been recognized in the financial statements.

(h) First Silver Litigation

In April 2013, the Company received a positive judgment on the First Silver litigation from the Supreme Court of British Columbia (the “Court”), which awarded the sum of $93.8 million in favour of First Majestic against Hector Davila Santos (the “Defendant”) in connection with a dispute between the Company and the Defendant and his private company involving a mine in Mexico (the “Bolaños Mine”) as set out further below. The Company received a sum of $14.1 million in June 2013 as partial payment of the judgment, leaving an unpaid amount of $64.3 million (CAD$81.5 million). As part of the ruling, the Court granted orders restricting any transfer or encumbrance of the Bolaños Mine by the Defendant and limiting mining at the Bolaños Mine. The orders also require the Defendant to preserve net cash flow from the Bolaños Mine in a holding account and periodically provide to the Company certain information regarding the Bolaños Mine. After many years of domestic Mexican litigation, the enforceability of the British Columbia judgment was finally recognized by the Mexican Supreme Court in a written judgment on November 11, 2022. The Company has commenced collection actions in Mexico against the Defendant’s assets and continues to seek recovery of the balance against one of the Defendant’s assets located in the United States. Nonetheless, there can be no guarantee that the remainder of the judgment amount will be collected. Therefore, as at September 30, 2024, the Company has not accrued any of the remaining $64.3 million (CAD$81.5 million) unrecovered judgment in favour of the Company.

27. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Filing of F-4 Registration Statement in Connection with Gatos Silver Acquisition

Subsequent to quarter end, the Company filed a registration statement on Form F-4 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) in order to register the issuance of the common shares to be issued to shareholders of Gatos Silver, Inc. (“Gatos”) in connection with the Company’s acquisition of Gatos.

On September 5, 2024, the Company announced that it had entered into a definitive agreement (the "Merger Agreement") to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of Gatos, a silver dominant producer with a 70% interest in the Los Gatos Joint Venture, which owns the producing Cerro Los Gatos underground silver mine in Chihuahua, Mexico. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, Gatos shareholders will receive 2.550 common shares of First Majestic for each share of Gatos common stock held.

The Company's acquisition of Gatos is expected to close in early 2025, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including approvals of the shareholders of First Majestic and Gatos, clearance under Mexican anti-trust laws, and approval of the listing of the First Majestic common shares to be issued under the Merger Agreement on both the TSX and the NYSE. The Merger Agreement has been unanimously approved by the board of directors of each of First Majestic and Gatos, and in the case of Gatos, on the unanimous recommendation of a special committee of independent directors of Gatos.

Higher Q3 Silver Equivalent Production: The Company produced 5.5 million AgEq ounces in Q3 2024 representing a 4% increase when compared to 5.3 million AgEq ounces produced in the previous quarter primarily due to increased gold production at San Dimas and Santa Elena.
Continued Active Exploration Program: The Company completed a total of 50,020 metres (“m”) of drilling across its mines in Mexico and its Jerritt Canyon Gold Mine in Nevada, U.S.A. during the third quarter, representing a continued increase in exploration compared to Q2. Throughout the quarter, 28 drill rigs were active consisting of 14 rigs at San Dimas, nine rigs at Santa Elena, three rigs at Jerritt Canyon and two rigs at La Encantada.
High-Grade Gold and Silver Discovery: The Company announced the discovery of a new, high-grade gold and silver vein hosted system - the Navidad system - at the Santa Elena property (see the Company's news release dated July 30, 2024). The new discovery was made adjacent to the Company’s 100%-owned, and currently producing, Ermitaño mine. First Majestic is focusing its exploration efforts on Navidad as seven of the nine drill rigs currently active at Santa Elena have been allocated to drilling this new vein system.
Inventory: The Company held 767,386 silver ounces in finished goods inventory as at September 30, 2024, inclusive of coins and bullion. The fair value of this inventory at September 30, 2024 was $23.8 million, which was not included in revenue during the third quarter.
Jerritt Canyon Exploration Program Commenced: Jerritt Canyon’s 2024 exploration program commenced at the beginning of the third quarter. The exploration program is focused on unexplored targets on the recently permitted U.S. Forest Lands on First Majestic’s large Nevada land package (30,821 hectares, 119 square miles).
Record Safety Performance: In Q3 2024, the consolidated year-to-date Total Reportable Incident Frequency Rate (“TRIFR”) was 0.50, consistent with the previous quarter and well below the Company’s target key performance indicator (“KPI”) of <0.90, while the Lost Time Incident Frequency Rate (“LTIFR”) remained positive at 0.12 and below the Company’s target KPI of <0.30 for 2024. Safety performance at the Company remains at “world class” levels and continues to be a top priority for First Majestic.
San Dimas Hydroelectric plant, Las Truchas, at Full Capacity: As a result of a period of continued rain this year following extended drought conditions, the Company’s Las Truchas hydroelectric plant in Durango has returned to full capacity. Las Truchas provides reliable, efficient and renewable energy at low costs, and with no carbon footprint, to the San Dimas mine.
Conversion to Liquefied Natural Gas (“LNG”) at San Dimas: As part of its ongoing cost reduction and carbon reduction initiatives, First Majestic is actively reviewing the replacement of the diesel generators used for on-site back-up power at San Dimas with LNG units. This will generate substantial cost-savings and will result in a reduction in carbon emissions of up to 25% when back-up power is required.
Improved Sustainability Score: Majestic achieved a score of 37 in the S&P Global Corporate Sustainability Assessment (“CSA”) published on October 31, 2024, a 32% improvement over our 2023 performance. Our 2024 score places the Company in the top third of the mining and metals industry. Improvements were equally reflected across all three categories of the CSA - Environmental, Social, and Governance & Economic. The assessment noted significant improvements in First Majestic’s Risk & Crisis Management, Business Ethics, IT Security, Water Management, Human Rights and Labour Practices.

Acquisition of Gatos Silver, Inc.: On September 5, 2024, the Company announced that it had entered into a definitive agreement (the “Merger Agreement”) to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of Gatos common stock pursuant to a merger under Delaware law (the “Merger”). The Merger is expected to close in early 2025, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including approvals of the shareholders of First Majestic and Gatos, clearance under Mexican anti-trust laws, and approval of the listing of the First Majestic common shares to be issued under the Merger on both the TSX and the NYSE. The Merger Agreement has been unanimously approved by the board of directors of each of First Majestic and Gatos, and in the case of Gatos, on the unanimous recommendation of a special committee of independent directors of Gatos.
First Mint Inauguration: First Mint, LLC, the Company's 100%-owned and operated minting facility in Nevada, USA, celebrated its Inauguration on September 26, 2024. While commissioning and silver bullion sales commenced in March, the inauguration celebrated the mint's progress to-date on implementing innovative production and fulfillment processes at the state-of-the-art facility. The mint commissioned several pieces of new equipment including coin presses, lasers, and etching equipment for coin manufacturing and is on track to receiving ISO 9001 certification. Once received, this certification will allow First Mint’s products to be eligible for Individual Retirement Accounts (IRA). First Mint enables First Majestic to turn its mined silver into an array of finished bullion products for direct sale to the public and offers manufacturing capacity for third-party demand. More information is available at www.firstmint.com.
Cash Cost per AgEq Ounce: Cash cost per AgEq ounce for the quarter was $15.17 per ounce, a decrease from $15.29 per ounce in the previous quarter. The decrease in cash costs was primarily attributable to the continued strong performance and increase in gold production at Santa Elena and San Dimas, along with the softening of the Mexican Peso which averaged 10% weaker than the previous quarter. This was partially offset by a decrease in production at La Encantada due to lower tonnes and silver grades, partially offset by an increase in silver recoveries.
All-In Sustaining Cost (“AISC”) per AgEq Ounce: AISC per AgEq ounce in the third quarter was $21.03 per ounce, representing a 3% decrease from $21.64 per ounce in the previous quarter. This was primarily attributable to lower cash costs along with lower worker participation costs.
Third Quarter Financial Highlights
Strengthened Cash Position and Liquidity: The Company ended the quarter with a strong cash and cash equivalents position of $154.7 million compared to $138.3 million in the third quarter of 2023, while working capital increased to $238.2 million compared to $197.8 million in the third quarter of 2023. Cash and cash equivalents exclude an additional $103.9 million that is held in restricted cash.
Increased Revenue: In the third quarter, the Company generated revenues of $146.1 million, a 10% increase compared to $133.2 million in the third quarter of 2023. This was primarily attributed to a 33% increase in the average realized silver price, which was $29.84 per ounce during the quarter compared to $22.41 per ounce during the third quarter of 2023, as well as the recovery of 1,684 gold ounces at Jerritt Canyon achieved through in-circuit recovery efforts. This was partially offset by a 23% decrease in payable AgEq ounces sold primarily due to lower production levels at San Dimas and higher inventory levels held at the end of the third quarter of 2024.
Improved Mine Operating Earnings: The Company realized mine operating earnings of $28.5 million compared to $13.0 million in the third quarter of 2023, representing a 119% improvement. The increase in consolidated mine operating earnings was primarily attributed to a 67% increase in operating earnings at Santa Elena when compared to the third quarter of 2023, driven by higher average realized silver prices in Q3 2024.
Increased Cash Flow from Operations: Operating cash flow before changes in working capital and taxes in the quarter was $39.8 million compared to $14.1 million in the third quarter of 2023. This was primarily driven by a $15.5 million increase in mine operating earnings compared to the third quarter of 2023, resulting from strong performance at Santa Elena which generated a $13.1 million increase in mine operating earnings compared to the third quarter of 2023.
Earnings Before Income Tax Depreciation and Amortization (“EBITDA”)1: EBITDA for the quarter was $36.9 million compared to $11.5 million in the third quarter of 2023. The increase in EBITDA was primarily attributable to the increase in mine operating earnings and lower restructuring costs compared to the third quarter of 2023.
Adjusted EBITDA1: Adjusted EBITDA normalized for non-cash or non-recurring items such as share-based payments and unrealized losses on marketable securities for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 was $39.8 million compared to $24.0 million in the third quarter of 2023.

Net Loss: Net loss for the quarter was $26.6 million (EPS of ($0.09)) compared to a net loss of $27.1 million (EPS of ($0.09)) in the third quarter of 2023. Net loss for the quarter includes non-cash foreign exchange loss of $5.8 million (EPS of ($0.02)) and non-cash deferred income tax expense of $13.2 million (EPS of ($0.04)), relating primarily to the weakening of the Mexican Peso at the end of the quarter compared to 2023. The decrease in net loss was primarily attributed to a $15.5 million increase in mine operating earnings compared to the third quarter of 2023, partially offset by a $20.9 million increase in the income tax expense in the quarter as compared to the same quarter of the prior year. Costs in 2023 were also impacted by restructuring efforts and holding costs at La Parrilla along with a one-time loss on the sale of mining interest incurred in the third quarter of 2023 following the disposition of La Parrilla.
Adjusted Net Loss1: Adjusted net loss normalized for non-cash or non-recurring items such as share-based payments, unrealized losses on marketable securities, and deferred income tax for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 was $10.5 million (Adjusted EPS of ($0.03)) compared to adjusted net loss of $10.9 million (Adjusted EPS of ($0.04)) in the third quarter of 2023.
Capital Expenditures: The Company’s total capital expenditures in the third quarter were $34.7 million (2023 - $32.2 million) consisting of $13.8 million for underground development (2023 - $14.8 million), $14.8 million in exploration (2023 - $8.1 million), and $6.1 million in property, plant and equipment (2023 - $9.3 million).
Corporate Development and Other:
On September 5, 2024, the Company announced that it had entered into the Merger Agreement to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of Gatos common stock. The Merger will be effected by way of a reverse triangular merger under Delaware law, whereby a wholly-owned Delaware subsidiary of the Company will merge with and into Gatos, with Gatos surviving the Merger as a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Gatos is a silver dominant producer with a 70% interest in the Los Gatos Joint Venture, which owns the producing Cerro Los Gatos underground silver mine in Chihuahua, Mexico. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, Gatos shareholders will receive 2.550 common shares of First Majestic for each share of Gatos common stock held and former Gatos shareholders will hold approximately 38% of the issued and outstanding common shares of the Company on a fully diluted basis. Gatos is expected to contribute approximately $70 million in annual free cash flow to the combined entity.

The Company's acquisition of Gatos is expected to close in early 2025, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including approvals of the shareholders of First Majestic and Gatos, clearance under Mexican anti-trust laws, and approval of the listing of the First Majestic common shares to be issued under the Merger Agreement on both the TSX and the NYSE. The Merger Agreement has been unanimously approved by the board of directors of each of First Majestic and Gatos, and in the case of Gatos, on the unanimous recommendation of a special committee of independent directors of Gatos. Information relating to the proposed transaction can be found on the Company’s website and a copy of the Merger Agreement can be found on the Company’s profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca. The Company cautions that there is no certainty that the Merger will be completed in a timely fashion or at all.

Subsequent to quarter end, the Company filed a registration statement on Form F-4 with the United States Securities & Exchange Commission (“SEC”) in order to register the issuance of the common shares to be issued to shareholders of Gatos in connection with the Company’s acquisition of Gatos.

Production
Total production in the third quarter of 2024 was 5.5 million AgEq ounces consisting of 2.0 million ounces of silver and 41,761 ounces of gold. This represented a 6% decrease in silver and a 6% increase in gold, when compared to the previous quarter, primarily due to increased gold production at San Dimas and Santa Elena. Santa Elena continued its strong performance in 2024 driven by continuous operational optimization of the new dual-circuit plant which helped achieve strong quarterly throughput levels, while maintaining robust metal recoveries, in consecutive quarters.

At San Dimas, negotiations with the National Union continued to progress in the third quarter with an agreement reached in August. Labour and operating efficiencies have improved as a result, and management anticipates further improved production levels in Q4 at San Dimas. Additionally, at La Encantada, the successful identification of a new water source earlier in the year has led to water inventory levels reaching targeted levels by the end of the third quarter, which enabled the mill throughput to meet or exceed budgeted levels. Management expects Q4 production to revert to historical levels.

Total ore processed during the quarter amounted to 678,397 tonnes, representing a 1% increase compared to the prior quarter, primarily due to continued strong performance at Santa Elena.

Cash Cost and All-In Sustaining Cost per AgEq Ounce
Cash cost for the quarter was $15.17 per ounce, a decrease from $15.29 per ounce in the previous quarter. The decrease in cash costs was primarily attributable to the continued strong performance and increase in gold production at Santa Elena and San Dimas, along with the softening of the Mexican Peso which averaged 10% weaker than the previous quarter. This was partially offset by a decrease in production at La Encantada due to lower tonnes and silver grades, partially offset by an increase in silver recoveries.
AISC in the third quarter was $21.03 per ounce, representing a 3% decrease from $21.64 per ounce in the previous quarter. This was primarily attributable to lower cash costs along with lower worker participation costs and improved AgEq ounce production.
Management continues to undertake a series of cost reduction initiatives across the organization aimed at improving efficiencies, lowering production costs, capital spending, care and maintenance holding costs and corporate G&A costs while also increasing production. Current initiatives for 2024 include:
Negotiating workforce improvement processes with the employee union at San Dimas;
Reducing remnant pillar extraction at San Dimas within the mine plan and confirming remaining pillars using ore control (termita) drilling processes;
Managing over-break and under-break to reduce ore dilution impacts and optimize ore extraction at San Dimas and Santa Elena;
Increasing mine development rates at San Dimas and La Encantada to access additional ore reserves;
Renegotiating consumable contracts and reducing the use of external consultants;
Restructuring to optimize the workforce and reduce labour costs;
Optimizing use of reagent and grinding media consumption;
Implementing changes in shift line-up and other changes aimed at increasing productivity at San Dimas;
Utilizing quality assurance and quality control on operating drilling methods to verify stope positioning, grade and tonnage while also increasing the rates of development, which are expected to open additional ore stopes at San Dimas;
Optimizing mining sequencing with the goal of improving ore extraction at San Dimas, Santa Elena and La Encantada;
Adding an additional haulage contractor at La Encantada to increase mining rates and ore extraction;
Increasing ore blending options at La Encantada including the addition of lead nitrate to improve recovery rates;
Shifting all cemented rock fill operations underground to increase backfill efficiencies and reduce backfill costs at Santa Elena;
Increasing the capacity of the tailing filtration of the new press filters at Santa Elena by adding a higher capacity offtake conveyor system, with a goal to increase plant throughput rates;
Lowering holding costs at the Company’s suspended operations including the Jerritt Canyon Gold Mine; and
Continuing the carbon-in-leach clean out process at Jerritt Canyon to generate additional gold production.

Development and Exploration
During the quarter, the Company completed 8,497 m of underground development and 50,020 m of exploration drilling, compared to 8,135 m and 47,447 m, respectively, in the previous quarter. Throughout the third quarter, up to 28 drill rigs were active consisting of 14 rigs at San Dimas, nine rigs at Santa Elena, three rigs at Jerritt Canyon and two rigs at La Encantada. Jerritt Canyon’s 2024 exploration program commenced at the beginning of the third quarter. The exploration program is focused on unexplored targets on the recently permitted U.S. Forest Lands on First Majestic’s large Nevada land package.

Santa Elena produced 2,685,375 AgEq ounces, 4% above the prior quarter, consisting of 376,203 ounces of silver and 27,435 ounces of gold.

The mill processed a total of 259,919 tonnes of ore, slightly higher than the prior quarter with average silver and gold head grades relatively consistent at 68 g/t and 3.50 g/t, respectively.

Silver and gold recoveries averaged 67% and 94%, respectively, during the quarter. Silver recovery increased 1% while gold recovery remained consistent at 94% when compared to the prior quarter. Metallurgical recoveries remained strong due to the continuous operational optimization of the new dual-circuit plant and fine grinding strategy.

Cash cost per AgEq ounce in the third quarter was $11.96, representing a 2% decrease compared to $12.25 per AgEq ounce in the previous quarter, which was primarily attributed to a 4% increase in AgEq ounces produced. This was partially offset by higher royalty payments during the third quarter primarily due to higher earnings.

AISC per AgEq ounce for the quarter was $14.38, representing a 5% decrease compared to $15.07 per AgEq ounce in the prior quarter. This was primarily attributable to the decrease in cash costs and lower profit sharing allocated to Santa Elena as compared to the prior quarter.

San Dimas produced 2,110,905 AgEq ounces during the quarter consisting of 1,046,340 ounces of silver and 12,582 ounces of gold. Silver production decreased by 8%, while gold production increased by 4%, when compared to the prior quarter. The decrease in silver production was driven by lower silver grades and silver recoveries partially offset by an increase in ore tonnes processed. The increase in gold production was driven by an increase in processed ore, offset by a slightly lower gold grade.

The mill processed a total of 195,279 tonnes of ore, an increase of 7% compared to the prior quarter, with average silver and gold grades of 188 g/t and 2.12 g/t, respectively, compared with 210 g/t and 2.15 g/t in the prior quarter.

Silver and gold recoveries during the quarter averaged 89% and 95%, respectively, compared to 92% and 95% in the previous quarter. Metallurgical lab testing of ores from the Perez vein indicated additional cyanide dosing positively impacted silver recoveries and provisions were constructed in late Q3 2024 to inject cyanide pre-milling to raise cyanide concentrations and improve recovery rates for Q4 2024.

The West Block, Central Block and Sinaloa Graben areas contributed approximately 29%, 40% and 31%, respectively, of the total production during the quarter.

Negotiations with the unionized workers continued throughout the quarter and an agreement was reached in August on certain matters, the most significant being the payment for the 2023 annual bonus. Labour and operating efficiencies have improved as a result, and management anticipates further improved production levels in Q4 at San Dimas.

In the third quarter, cash cost per AgEq ounce was $16.50, a decrease compared to $16.66 per AgEq ounce in the prior quarter. This was primarily due to the weakening of the Mexican Peso and lower energy costs as compared to the prior quarter.

AISC per AgEq ounce for the quarter was $21.44, a decrease compared to $21.78 per AgEq ounce in the prior quarter. This was primarily due to lower cash costs and sustaining development costs during the quarter.

As a result of a period of continued rain this year following extended drought conditions, the Company's Las Truchas hydroelectric plant, in Durango, is back at full capacity. Las Truchas provides reliable, efficient and renewable energy at lower costs, and with a lower carbon footprint to the San Dimas mine. Additionally, as part of its ongoing cost reduction and carbon reduction initiatives, First Majestic is actively reviewing the replacement of the diesel generators used for on-site back-up power at San Dimas with LNG units. This will generate substantial cost-savings and will result in a reduction in carbon emissions of up to 25%, when back-up power is required.

The San Dimas mine is subject to a gold and silver streaming agreement with Wheaton Precious Metals Corp. (“Wheaton” or “WPMI”), which entitles Wheaton to receive 25% of the gold equivalent production (based on a fixed exchange ratio of 70 silver ounces to 1 gold ounce) at San Dimas in exchange for ongoing payments equal to the lesser of $600 (subject to a 1% annual inflation adjustment commencing in May 2019) and the prevailing market price for each gold equivalent ounce delivered. Should the average gold to silver ratio over a six-month period exceed 90:1 or fall below 50:1, the fixed exchange ratio would be increased to 90:1 or decreased to 50:1, respectively. The fixed gold to silver exchange ratio as of September 30, 2024, was 70:1. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company delivered 7,022 and 21,756 ounces (2023 - 9,695 and 31,700 ounces) of gold to WPMI at $637 and $634 per ounce (2023 - $631 and $628 per ounce).

A total of 5,452 m of underground development was completed in the third quarter, compared to 4,859 m in the prior quarter. During the quarter, a total of 14 drill rigs consisting of four surface rigs and 10 underground rigs, completed 29,172 m of drilling on the property, following on the 31,249 m and 26,363 m drilled in Q2 and Q1 this year, respectively. Total exploration costs were $3.3 million compared to $2.9 million in the prior quarter.

During the quarter, La Encantada produced 545,031 ounces of silver, representing a 7% decrease compared to the prior quarter primarily due to a decrease in silver grade offset by an increase in silver recovery.

Water inventory levels at the plant achieved capacity by the end of the quarter, enabling plant ore throughput rates to return to targeted levels. As a result, in the month of September alone, La Encantada produced 232,968 ounces of silver, or approximately 43% of the total Q3 silver production at the mine. Management anticipates Q4 production at La Encantada to revert to historical levels.

The mill processed a total of 223,200 tonnes of ore with an average silver grade of 110 g/t. Stope production from the Beca Zone contributed 88,444 tonnes with average silver grades of 111 g/t.

Silver recovery for the quarter was 69%, representing a 15% increase when compared to 60% recovery in the prior quarter. Metallurgical testing indicated that the addition of lead nitrate to the leaching circuit will provide positive recovery results for La Encantada ores. Installation of the lead nitrate system was completed at the end of the third quarter and continued improved recovery rates are anticipated for Q4 2024.

Cash cost per AgEq ounce for the quarter was $25.24, representing a 7% increase compared to $23.69 per AgEq ounce in the prior quarter, primarily due to a 7% decrease in AgEq ounces produced along with slightly higher energy costs due to a temporary failure in one of the LNG power generators, which has since been repaired.

AISC per AgEq ounce for the quarter was $30.10, representing an 8% increase compared to $27.87 per AgEq ounce in the previous quarter. The higher AISC per AgEq ounce was primarily due to the higher cash costs compared to the prior quarter.

In 2022, the Company sold a portfolio of its existing royalty interests to Metalla Royalty and Streaming Limited (“Metalla”). Under the agreement, the Company has granted Metalla a 100% gross value royalty for the first 1,000 ounces of gold produced annually from the La Encantada property. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company has incurred $0.1 million and $0.3 million, respectively (September 30, 2023 - $0.2 and $0.4 million) in NSR royalty payments from production at La Encantada.

A total of 781 m of underground development was completed in the third quarter at La Encantada, compared to 947 m in the prior quarter. During the quarter, two surface drill rigs completed 1,862 m of drilling on the property, representing a 207% increase when compared to the prior quarter. The 2024 exploration program commenced in the second quarter after securing a new water source. Total exploration costs in the third quarter were $0.5 million, compared to $0.3 million in the prior quarter.

In July 2019, the Company suspended all mining and processing activities at the San Martin operation due to growing insecurity in the area. Increasing violence and safety concerns resulted in the Company removing all of its remaining employees from the area in 2021 and the mine and plant have been occupied and are currently under the de facto control of an organized criminal group. Due to this situation, the Company has been unable to carry out proper care and maintenance of the mine and plant and tailings storage facilities and the Company has limited information as to the current state of repair at the mine, including the tailings storage facility. The Company has repeatedly requested all applicable governmental authorities to take action to secure the area but, to date, the Mexican government has failed to take any such action and the Company’s own efforts have been unsuccessful. The Company is continuing its efforts to work with governmental authorities to take action to secure the area, although it is not known when that might, if ever, occur.

Springpole Silver Stream, Ontario, Canada

In July 2020, the Company completed an agreement with First Mining Gold Corp. (“First Mining”) to purchase 50% of the life of mine payable silver produced from the Springpole Gold Project (the “Springpole Silver Stream”), a development-stage gold project located in Ontario, Canada. First Majestic agreed to pay First Mining consideration of $22.5 million in cash and shares, in three milestone payments, for the right to purchase silver at a price of 33% of the silver spot price per ounce, to a maximum of $7.50 per ounce (subject to annual inflation escalation of 2%, commencing at the start of the third anniversary of production). Commencing with its production of silver, First Mining must deliver 50% of the payable silver which it receives from the offtaker within five business days of the end of each quarter.

The transaction consideration paid and payable by First Majestic is summarized as follows:

The first payment of $10.0 million, consisting of $2.5 million in cash and $7.5 million in First Majestic common shares (805,698 common shares), was paid to First Mining on July 2, 2020;
The second payment of $7.5 million, consisting of $3.75 million in cash and $3.75 million in First Majestic common shares (287,300 common shares), was paid on January 21, 2021 upon the completion and public announcement by First Mining of the results of a Pre-Feasibility Study for Springpole; and
The third payment, consisting of $2.5 million in cash and $2.5 million in First Majestic common shares (based on a 20-day volume weighted average price), will be paid upon receipt by First Mining of a Federal or Provincial Environmental Assessment approval for Springpole, which has not yet been received.

In connection with the streaming agreement, First Mining also granted First Majestic 30.0 million common share purchase warrants of First Mining (the “First Mining Warrants”), each of which will entitle the Company to purchase one common share of First Mining at CAD$0.40 over a period of five years. As a result of the distribution by First Mining of shares and warrants of Treasury Metals Inc. that was completed by First Mining on July 15, 2021, pursuant to the adjustment






First Majestic Silver Corp. 2024 Third Quarter Report
Page 20
              


provisions of the First Mining Warrants, the exercise price of these warrants was reduced from CAD$0.40 to CAD$0.37, and the number of these warrants was increased from 30.0 million to 32.1 million. The fair value of the warrants was measured at $5.7 million using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

First Mining has the right to repurchase 50% of the silver stream from First Majestic for $22.5 million at any time prior to the commencement of production at Springpole, and if such a repurchase takes place, the Company will be left with a reduced silver stream of 25% of life of mine payable silver production from Springpole.

Springpole is one of Canada’s largest, undeveloped gold projects with permitting underway. In January 2021, First Mining announced results of its Pre-Feasibility Study (“PFS”) which supports a 30,000 tpd open pit mining operation over an 11-year mine life. First Mining announced resources of 24.3 million ounces of silver in the Indicated category and 1.4 million ounces of silver in the Inferred category, plus 4.6 million ounces of gold in the Indicated category and 0.3 million ounces of gold in the Inferred category. A draft Environmental Impact Statement for Springpole was published in June 2022, and the Federal and Provincial Environment Assessment processes for the project are in progress.

The Springpole Project also includes large land holdings of 41,913 hectares which are fully encompassed under the silver streaming agreement.

Keith Neumeyer, our President & Chief Executive Officer, and Raymond Polman, a director of the Company, are each directors of First Mining and accordingly may be considered to have a conflict of interest with respect to First Mining and the Springpole Silver Stream Agreement.

NM - Not meaningful

1.Revenues in the quarter increased $12.9 million compared to the same quarter of the prior year primarily attributed to:
a 33% increase in the average realized silver price, which was $29.84 per ounce during the quarter, compared to $22.41 per ounce in the third quarter of 2023 as well as increased recovered gold ounces at Jerritt Canyon achieved through in-circuit recovery efforts. This resulted in a $33.9 million increase in revenue compared to the same quarter of the prior year
Partially offset by:
a 23% decrease in the total number of payable AgEq ounces sold compared to the third quarter of 2023 which resulted in a decrease in revenues of $20.7 million compared to the third quarter of 2023. This was primarily driven by lower production levels at San Dimas as well as higher inventory levels held at the end of third quarter of 2024.

2.Cost of sales in the quarter decreased $6.5 million compared to the same quarter of the prior year primarily due to:
a weaker Mexican Peso against the U.S. dollar, which averaged 11% lower compared to the same quarter of 2023;
a $7.7 million decrease in labour costs primarily due to the reduction in workforce cross the organization following restructuring efforts to optimize the workforce during the same quarter of the prior year; and
a $2.8 million decrease in consumables and materials, energy and insurance costs.







First Majestic Silver Corp. 2024 Third Quarter Report
Page 22
              


Partially offset by:
a $2.2 million increase in change in inventory expense compared to the same quarter of 2023;
a $1.0 million increase in worker participation costs in Mexico; and
a $0.9 million increase in other costs primarily due to an increase in environmental duties and royalties.
3.Depletion, depreciation and amortization in the quarter increased $3.9 million compared to the same quarter of the previous year, primarily as a result of:
a $3.3 million increase in depletion and depreciation from the Mexican operations primarily due to an increase in production at Santa Elena as well as higher fixed asset depreciation at San Dimas and La Encantada; and
an increase of $0.4 million in depletion from in-circuit inventory recovery at Jerritt Canyon during the quarter.
4.General and administrative expense in the quarter decreased $1.0 million compared to the same quarter of the previous year. Costs in the third quarter of 2023 were higher primarily due to increased restructuring efforts to optimize the Company’s workforce, along with higher legal and professional fees during Q3 2023 related to the Company’s ongoing NAFTA proceedings. This decrease compared to the same quarter of the previous year was offset by higher due diligence costs incurred in the months prior to the Company’s announcement on September 5, 2024 that it has agreed to acquire Gatos.
5.Mine holding costs decreased by $1.1 million compared to the same quarter of 2023, primarily driven by lower holding costs from La Parrilla, which was sold in the third quarter of 2023, and lower holding costs for the Del Toro mine.
6.Restructuring Costs decreased by $6.4 million compared to the same quarter of 2023. In 2023, restructuring costs were related to the Company optimizing its workforce primarily at San Dimas, as well as at the Durango regional office and Santa Elena.
7.Loss on sale of mining interest decreased by $1.6 million compared to the prior year. In the third quarter of 2023, the Company recorded a write-down related to La Parrilla based on the change in value of the shares of Silver Storm Mining (formerly Golden Tag Resources) at the end of the reporting period.
8.Investment and other income decreased by $0.7 million compared to the third quarter of 2023, primarily due to a loss from investment in silver future derivatives of $1.3 million, compared to a $0.4 million gain in the same quarter of the prior year. This was partially offset by interest income of $1.9 million compared to $1.5 million in the same quarter of the prior year, along with a gain on the sale of marketable securities of $0.1 million compared to a $0.7 million loss in the same quarter of the prior year.
9.During the quarter, the Company recorded an income tax expense of $24.4 million compared to a $3.6 million income tax expense in the third quarter of 2023. The increase in income tax expense was primarily related to the non-cash foreign exchange impact on available Mexican tax pools to account for the strengthening of the US Dollar against the Mexican Peso resulting in an increased deferred tax expense as well as an increased current tax expense driven by higher earnings at Santa Elena.
10.As a result of the foregoing, net loss for the quarter was $26.6 million (EPS of ($0.09)) compared to a net loss of $27.1 million (EPS of ($0.09)) in the same quarter of the prior year.

1.Revenues in the nine months ended September 30, 2024 decreased $48.6 million or 11% compared to the same period in the previous year, primarily attributed to:
a 25% decrease in the total number of payable AgEq ounces sold compared to the prior year which resulted in a decrease in revenues of $100.1 million. This was primarily driven by higher inventory levels held, lower production levels at San Dimas, and the temporary suspension of mining activities at Jerritt Canyon in 2023 which contributed $40.5 million toward revenue during the same period in the previous year.
Partially offset by:
an 18% increase in the realized silver price per ounce sold, which averaged $27.25 year-to-date compared to $23.03 in the prior year. This resulted in a $51.7 million increase in revenue compared to the prior year; and
a 15% increase in payable AgEq ounces produced at Santa Elena.








First Majestic Silver Corp. 2024 Third Quarter Report
Page 24
              


2.Cost of sales in the year decreased $78.8 million or 24% compared to the same period in the previous year, primarily as a result of the following factors:
a $66.6 million decrease in labour costs due to the reduction in workforce in Jerritt Canyon and across the organization, a decrease in consumables and energy costs during the year along with a decrease in other costs including insurance, services, selling and maintenance costs. This was primarily due to the temporary suspension of operations at the Jerritt Canyon Mine during the first quarter of 2023 along with reduced production at San Dimas during the year;
a $13.4 million decrease in one-time standby costs primarily related to one-time severance and demobilization costs following the temporary suspension of mining activities at Jerritt Canyon; and
a $6.9 million decrease due to changes in inventory expense compared to the prior year primarily due to the inventory drawdown at Jerritt Canyon in 2023.
Partially offset by:
a $1.8 million increase in abnormal costs at San Dimas during the second quarter as the Company had to use higher cost diesel from back up energy sources due to low water levels at the Company’s Las Truchas hydroelectric dam and damage to the power lines from the hydroelectric plant;
a $1.5 million increase in worker participation costs in Mexico;
a $1.2 million increase in environmental duties and royalties due to increased production at Ermitaño which resulted in increased royalties paid; and
a stronger Mexican Peso against the U.S. dollar, which averaged 1% higher compared to the same period of 2023.
3.Depletion, depreciation and amortization in the year decreased $5.7 million or 6% compared to the same period of the previous year, primarily as a result of:
an $11.7 million decrease related to lower depletion at Jerritt Canyon due to the temporary suspension of mining activities.
Partially offset by:
a $5.7 million increase in depletion and depreciation from the Mexican operations primarily due to an increase in production at Santa Elena as well as higher fixed asset depreciation at Santa Elena and La Encantada.
4.General and administrative expense in the year decreased $2.4 million or 8% compared to the same period in the previous year, primarily attributed to higher severance costs incurred in 2023 related to restructuring efforts to optimize the Company’s workforce. This was offset by higher due diligence costs incurred in the months prior to the Company’s announcement on September 5, 2024 that it has agreed to acquire Gatos.
5.Mine holding costs increased by $3.4 million compared to the same period in the previous year, primarily related to the temporary suspension of Jerritt Canyon and care and maintenance activities at Santa Elena. This was partially offset by lower holding costs due to the sale of La Guitarra and La Parrilla in the first and third quarters of 2023, respectively.
6.Write down on asset held-for-sale decreased by $7.2 million compared to the same period in the previous year. In 2023, the Company recorded a write-down related to La Parrilla based on the change in value of shares of Silver Storm Mining (formerly Golden Tag Resources) at the end of the reporting period.
7.Restructuring costs decreased by $6.4 million compared to the same period in the previous year. In 2023, restructuring costs were related to the Company optimizing its workforce primarily at San Dimas, as well as the Durango regional office and Santa Elena.
8.Impairment decreased by $125.2 million compared to the same period in the previous year. In March 2023, the Company recorded a $125.2 million impairment in respect of its Jerritt Canyon mine following the temporary suspension of mining operations.
9.Loss on sale of mining interest for the year decreased by $3.0 million compared to the same period in the previous year. This was due to the sale of La Guitarra to Sierra Madre Gold and Silver Ltd. on March 29, 2023. Based on the carrying value of the asset at the time of disposal of $34.3 million, and the working capital adjustment of $0.2 million, the Company had recorded a loss on disposition of $1.4 million in the first quarter of the prior year.
10.Investment and other income for the year totaled $4.1 million compared $8.0 million in income for the same period in the previous year. The decrease in the investment and other income was primarily due to an unrealized loss on silver futures of $1.0 million, compared to a $4.8 million gain in the prior year, and interest income of $4.7 million, compared






First Majestic Silver Corp. 2024 Third Quarter Report
Page 25
              


to interest income of $5.1 million in the prior year. This was partially offset by an unrealized gain on marketable securities of $0.2 million, compared to a $1.6 million loss in the prior year.
11.During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company recorded an income tax expense of $41.8 million, compared to an income tax recovery of $47.4 million during the same period in the previous year primarily due to an increase in deferred income tax expense. The deferred income tax expense during the year was primarily related to the foreign exchange impact on available Mexican tax pools to account for the strengthening of the US Dollar against the Mexican Peso. The income tax recovery in 2023 was primarily driven by an impairment on non-current assets during the first quarter of 2023 along with foreign exchange and inflationary adjustments.
12.As a result of the foregoing, net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $88.4 million (EPS of ($0.30)), compared to a net loss of $145.3 million (EPS of ($0.52)) during the same period in the previous year.

(Loss) earnings per share – diluted($0.09)($0.17)($0.05)$0.04 ($0.09)($0.06)($0.37)($0.06)

During the third quarter of 2024, mine operating earnings were $28.5 million compared to earnings of $15.5 million in the previous quarter. The increase in mine operating earnings was primarily due to a higher average realized silver price, an increase in payable AgEq ounces sold, and lower cash costs compared to the prior quarter.

The net loss for the quarter was $26.6 million compared to a net loss of $48.3 million in the prior quarter. The decrease in net loss was primarily attributed a $13.1 million increase in mine operating earnings compared to the prior quarter, a non-cash foreign exchange loss of $5.8 million compared to a $11.1 million loss in the prior quarter, and a $6.1 million decrease in income tax expense compared to the prior quarter. This was partially offset by the $3.4 million decrease in investment income in the quarter as compared to the second quarter of 2024.

The Company’s cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 are summarized as follows:
Cash generated by operating activities of $70.3 million, primarily due to:
$76.1 million in cash flows from operating activities before movements in working capital and taxes;
net of:
$9.8 million net change in non-cash working capital items during the period, including a $21.7 million decrease in restricted cash and a $0.6 million decrease in value added tax (“VAT”) receivables, partially offset by a $3.7 million decrease in trade payables, a $3.4 million increase in inventories, a $3.0 million increase in trade and other receivables, a $1.7 million decrease in income taxes payable, and a $0.8 increase in prepaid expenses; and
$15.7 million in income tax installments paid during the period.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company received $40.3 million (790.7 million MXN) related to VAT filings. In connection with the tax ruling relating to Primero Empresa Minera, S.A. de C.V. (“PEM”), the Servicio de Administracion Tributaria (the “SAT”), the Mexican tax authority, has frozen a PEM bank account which contains approximately $84.8 million as security for certain tax re-assessments that are currently being disputed by PEM, and this

amount is reflected in the Company’s restricted cash accounts. The Company does not agree with the SAT’s position regarding its tax re-assessments, which were issued as a result of the SAT unilaterally declaring that the Company’s APA was not valid, and is challenging Mexico’s actions with respect to the APA through various legal actions, both domestically in Mexico and internationally through NAFTA arbitration proceedings.

Capital Resources

The Company’s objective when managing capital is to maintain financial flexibility to continue as a going concern while optimizing growth and maximizing returns of investments from shareholders.

The Company continually monitors its capital structure and, based on changes in operations and economic conditions, it may from time to time adjust the structure by repurchasing shares, issuing new shares, issuing new debt or retiring existing debt. The Company prepares an annual budget and quarterly forecasts to facilitate the management of its capital requirements. The annual budget is approved by the Company’s Board of Directors.

The Company is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements with the exception of complying with banking covenants defined in its debt facilities. As at September 30, 2024, the Company was in compliance with all of its debt covenants.

The Company believes it has sufficient cash on hand, combined with cash flows from operations, to meet operating requirements as they arise for at least the next 12 months.

MANAGEMENT OF RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

The Company thoroughly examines the various financial instruments and risks to which it is exposed and assesses the impact and likelihood of those risks. These risks may include credit risk, liquidity risk, currency risk, commodity price risk, and interest rate risk. Where material, these risks are reviewed and monitored by the Board of Directors. Some of these risks and uncertainties are detailed below. For a comprehensive list of the Company’s risks and uncertainties, see the Company’s most recently filed AIF under the heading "Risk Factors". The AIF is available under the Company’s SEDAR+ profile at www.sedarplus.ca, and on EDGAR as an exhibit to the Company’s recently filed Form 40-F.

Credit Risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss if a customer or counterparty fails to meet its contractual obligations. The Company’s credit risk relates primarily to chartered banks, trade receivables in the ordinary course of business, value added taxes receivable and other receivables.







First Majestic Silver Corp. 2024 Third Quarter Report
Page 29
              


As at September 30, 2024, net VAT receivable was $52.1 million (December 31, 2023 - $52.7 million), of which $13.9 million (December 31, 2023 - $27.5 million) relates to La Encantada, $12.2 million relates to Santa Elena (December 31, 2023 - $25.6 million), and $8.8 million (December 31, 2023 - $29.0 million) relates to San Dimas.

The Company sells and receives payment upon delivery of its silver doré and by-products primarily through four international customers. All of the Company’s customers have good ratings and payments of receivables are scheduled, routine and fully received within 60 days of submission; therefore, the balance of trade receivables owed to the Company in the ordinary course of business is not significant.

The carrying amount of financial assets recorded in the consolidated financial statements represents the Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk. With the exception to the above, the Company believes it is not exposed to significant credit risk.

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they arise. The Company manages liquidity risk by monitoring actual and projected cash flows and matching the maturity profile of financial assets and liabilities. Cash flow forecasting is performed regularly to ensure that there is sufficient capital in order to meet short-term business requirements, after taking into account cash flows from operations and our holdings of cash and cash equivalents.

Indebtedness

As at September 30, 2024, the Company’s total consolidated indebtedness was $206.8 million, $0.4 million of which was secured indebtedness.

The Company may be required to use a portion of its cash flow to service principal and interest owing thereunder, which will limit the cash flow available for other business opportunities. The Company may in the future determine to borrow additional funds from lenders. For further details regarding this risk, see the section in the Company’s most recently filed AIF entitled “Risk Factors – Financial Risks – Indebtedness”.

Currency Risk

The Company is exposed to foreign exchange risk primarily relating to financial instruments that are denominated in Canadian dollars or Mexican pesos, which would impact the Company’s net earnings or loss. To manage foreign exchange risk, the Company may occasionally enter into short-term foreign currency derivatives, such as forwards and options, to hedge its cash flows.

The sensitivity of the Company’s net earnings or loss and comprehensive income or loss due to changes in the exchange rates of the Canadian Dollar and the Mexican Peso against the U.S. Dollar is included in the table below:

 $22,979 $84,751 $51,983 $1,152 ($59,867)$100,998 $10,100 



Commodity Price Risk

The Company is exposed to commodity price risk on silver and gold, which have a direct and immediate impact on the value of its related financial instruments, non-financial items and net earnings. The Company’s revenues are directly dependent on commodity prices that have shown volatility and are beyond the Company’s control. The Company does not use long-term derivative instruments to hedge its commodity price risk to silver or gold.

Interest Rate Risk
The Company is exposed to interest rate risk on its short-term investments, debt facilities and lease liabilities. The Company monitors its exposure to interest rates and has not entered into any derivative contracts to manage this risk. The Company’s interest-bearing financial assets comprise of cash and cash equivalents which bear interest at a mixture of variable and fixed rates for pre-set periods of time.

As at September 30, 2024, the Company’s exposure to interest rate risk on interest bearing liabilities is limited to its debt facilities and lease liabilities. Based on the Company’s interest rate exposure at September 30, 2024, a 25 basis points increase or decrease in the market interest rate does not have a significant impact on net earnings or loss.

Political and Country Risk

First Majestic currently conducts foreign operations in Mexico and the United States, and as such the Company’s operations are exposed to various levels of political and economic risks by factors outside of the Company’s control. These potential factors include, but are not limited to: royalty and tax increases or claims by governmental bodies, the ongoing hostilities in Ukraine and the Middle East, expropriation or nationalization, foreign exchange controls, high rates of inflation, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, import and export tariffs and regulations, lawlessness, cancellation or renegotiation of contracts and environmental and permitting regulations, illegal mining operations by third parties on the Company's properties, labour unrest and surface access issues. The Company currently has no political risk insurance coverage against these risks.

The Company is unable to determine the impact of these risks on its future financial position or results of operations. Changes, if any, in mining or investment policies or shifts in political attitude in foreign countries may substantively affect the Company’s exploration, development and production activities.

Uncertainty in the Estimation of Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves, and Metal Recoveries

There is a degree of uncertainty attributable to the estimation of Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves (as defined in the Canadian Institute of Mining's Estimation of Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves Best Practice Guidelines and included by reference in the Canadian Securities Administrators' National Instrument 43-101 Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”)). Until Mineral Reserves or Mineral Resources are actually mined, extracted and processed, the quantity of minerals and their grades must be considered estimates only. In addition, the quantity of Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources may vary depending on, among other things, applicable metal prices, exchange rate assumptions used, underground stability conditions, the ability to maintain constant underground access to all working areas, geological variability, mining methods assumptions used and operating cost escalation. Any material change in the quantity of Mineral Reserves, Mineral Resources, grade or dimensions of the geological structures may affect the economic viability of some or all of the Company’s mineral properties and may have a material adverse effect on the Company's operational results and financial condition. Mineral Reserves on the Company’s properties have been estimated on the basis of economic factors at the time of calculation, including commodity prices and operating costs; variations in such factors may have an impact on the amount of the Company’s Mineral Reserves. In addition, there can be no assurance that metal recoveries in small scale laboratory tests will be replicated in larger scale tests under on-site conditions or during production, or that the existing known and experienced recoveries will continue.

Governmental Regulations, Licenses and Permits

On May 8, 2023, the Mexican Government enacted a decree amending several provisions of the Mining Law, the Law on National Waters, the Law on Ecological Equilibrium and Environmental Protection and the General Law for the Prevention and Integral Management of Waste (the "Decree"), which became effective on May 9, 2023. The Decree amends the mining and water laws, including: (i) the duration of the mining concession titles, (ii) the process to obtain new mining concessions






First Majestic Silver Corp. 2024 Third Quarter Report
Page 31
              


(through a public tender), (iii) imposing conditions on water use and availability for the mining concessions, (iv) the elimination of “free land and first applicant” scheme; (iv) new social and environmental requirements in order to obtain and keep mining concessions, (v) the authorization by the Ministry of Economy of any mining concession’s transfer, (vi) new penalties and cancellation of mining concessions grounds due to non-compliance with the applicable laws, (vii) the automatic dismissal of any application for new concessions, and (viii) new financial instruments or collaterals that should be provided to guarantee the preventive, mitigation and compensation plans resulting from the social impact assessments, among other amendments.

These amendments are expected to have an impact on our current and future exploration activities and operations in Mexico and the extent of such impact is yet to be determined but could be material for the Company. On June 7, 2023, the Senators of the opposition parties (PRI, PAN and PRD) filed a constitutional action against the Decree, which is pending to be decided by Plenary of the Supreme Court of Justice. Additionally, during the second quarter of 2023, the Company filed amparo lawsuits challenging the constitutionality of the Decree. As of the date of this MD&A, these amparos filed by First Majestic, along with numerous amparos in relation to the Decree that have been filed by other companies, are still pending before the District or Collegiate Courts. On July 15, 2024, the Supreme Court of Justice in Mexico suspended all on-going amparo lawsuits against the Decree whilst the aforementioned constitutional action is being considered by the Supreme Court. Once the Supreme Court has provided its ruling on the constitutional action, such ruling will set a precedent that will enable the on-going amparo lawsuits to be resolved.

For further details regarding risks relating to government regulations, licenses and permits, see the section in the Company’s most recently filed AIF entitled “Risk Factors – Operational Risks – Governmental Regulations, Licenses and Permits”.

Public Health Crises

Global financial conditions and the global economy in general have, at various times in the past and may in the future, experience extreme volatility in response to economic shocks or other events. Many industries, including the mining industry, are impacted by volatile market conditions in response to the widespread outbreak of epidemics, pandemics, or other health crises. Such public health crises and the responses of governments and private actors can result in disruptions and volatility in economies, financial markets, and global supply chains as well as declining trade and market sentiment and reduced mobility of people, all of which could impact commodity prices, interest rates, credit ratings, credit risk and inflation.

Any public health crises could materially and adversely impact the Company's business, including without limitation, employee health, workforce availability and productivity, limitations on travel, supply chain disruptions, increased insurance premiums, increased costs and reduced efficiencies, the availability of industry experts and personnel, restrictions on the Company's exploration and drilling programs and/or the timing to process drill and other metallurgical testing and the slowdown or temporary suspension of operations at some or all of the Company's properties, resulting in reduced production volumes. Any such disruptions could have an adverse effect on the Company’s production, revenue, net income and business.

Environmental and Health and Safety Risks

The Company’s activities are subject to extensive laws and regulations governing environmental protection and employee health and safety. Environmental laws and regulations are complex and have tended to become more stringent over time. The Company is required to obtain governmental permits and in some instances air, water quality, waste disposal, hazardous substances and mine reclamation rules and permits. Although the Company makes provisions for environmental compliance and reclamation costs, it cannot be assured that these provisions will be adequate to discharge its future obligations for these costs. Failure to comply with applicable environmental and health and safety laws may result in injunctions, damages, suspension or revocation of permits and imposition of penalties. There can be no assurance that First Majestic has been or will be at all times in complete compliance with such laws, regulations and permits, or that the costs of complying with current and future environmental and health and safety laws and permits will not materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, results of operations or financial condition.

On August 26, 2021, the NDEP issued 10 Notices of Alleged Violation (collectively the “NOAV”) that alleged the Company doing business as Jerritt Canyon Gold, LLC had violated various air permit conditions and regulations applicable to operations at the Jerritt Canyon in Elko County, Nevada. The NOAV are related to compliance with emission monitoring, testing, recordkeeping requirements, and emission and throughput limits.







First Majestic Silver Corp. 2024 Third Quarter Report
Page 32
              


The Company filed a Notice of Appeal on September 3, 2021, challenging the NOAV before the Nevada State Environmental Commission (“NSEC”). The Company raised various defenses to the NOAV, including that the Company is not liable for the violations because it was never the owner/operator of Jerritt Canyon during the period the alleged violations began (on April 30, 2021, the Company acquired Jerritt Canyon Canada Ltd, which, through subsidiaries, owns and operates Jerritt Canyon). There is currently no hearing scheduled or any scheduling order in the matter, and the parties have yet to engage in discovery.

On March 8, 2022, NDEP issued an additional four Notices of Alleged Violations to Jerritt Canyon Gold, LLC for alleged exceedances and violations of an Air Quality Operating permit and Mercury Operating Permit to Construct. The new NOAVs relate to alleged exceedances of mercury emission limitations, exceedances of operating parameters, installation of equipment, and recordkeeping requirements. The Company filed a Request for Hearing with the Nevada State Environmental Commission on March 18, 2022, that challenged the bases for the alleged NOAVs and any potential penalties associated with the NOAVs. JCG and NDEP agreed to waive the 20-day hearing requirement for the NOAVs and the parties request that the NSEC withhold schedule a hearing for the NOAVs at this time. At this time the estimated amount cannot be reliably determined.

The Company intends to, and attempts to, fully comply with all applicable environmental regulations, however the Company's ability to conduct adequate maintenance and safety protocols may be considerably constrained or even prevented in areas where its control is impacted by criminal activities, such as the San Martin mine. Although the Company has repeatedly requested all applicable governmental authorities to take action to secure the area, to date, the Mexican government has failed to take any such action and the Company's own efforts have been unsuccessful. Due to this situation, the Company has been unable to conduct care and maintenance activities at San Martin since its remaining employees were withdrawn in 2021 and the Company has limited information as to the current state of repair at the mine, including the tailing storage facility. As a result, there may be an increased risk that an environmental incident may occur at this operation and, as applicable Mexican laws impose strict liability on the property owner, the Company could incur material financial liabilities and suspension of authorizations as a result.

While responsible environmental stewardship is a top priority for the Company, there can be no assurance that the Company has been or will be at all times in complete compliance with applicable environmental laws, regulations and permits, or that the costs of complying with current and future environmental laws and permits will not materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, results of operations or financial condition.

Natural Protected Areas Risk

Pursuant to the General Law of Ecological Equilibrium and Environmental Protection (the “General Law”), the Government of Mexico may, from time to time, establish Natural Protected Areas. There are a variety of different levels of environmental protection provided under the General Law which limit the economic activity that may be undertaken in any particular Natural Protected Area. The Mexican government has announced its intention to create additional Natural Protected Areas in Mexico. Although there are currently no Natural Protected Areas in effect in the vicinity of the Company’s mining operations in Mexico, there can be no assurance that any such area will not be established in the future. In the event that a Natural Protected Area is established over land which is a part of or is nearby to any of the Company’s mineral properties in Mexico, the Company’s activities on such properties may be restricted or prevented entirely which may have a material adverse impact on the Company’s business.

Climate Related Risks

A number of governments have introduced or are moving to introduce climate change legislation and treaties at the international, national, state/provincial and local levels. Regulation relating to emission levels (such as carbon taxes) and energy efficiency is becoming more stringent. If the current regulatory trend continues, this may result in increased costs at some or all of the Company’s operations. In addition, the physical risks of climate change may also have an adverse effect on the Company’s operations. These risks include the following:

Changes in sea levels could affect ocean transportation and shipping facilities that are used to transport supplies, equipment and workforce and products from the Company's operations to world markets.
Extreme weather events (such as prolonged drought, flooding or freezing conditions) have the potential to disrupt operations at the Company’s mines and may require the Company to make additional expenditures to mitigate the impact of such events. Extended disruptions to supply lines could result in interruption to production.






First Majestic Silver Corp. 2024 Third Quarter Report
Page 33
              


The Company’s facilities depend on regular supplies of consumables (diesel, tires, sodium cyanide, etc.) and reagents to operate efficiently. In the event that the effects of climate change or extreme weather events cause prolonged disruption to the delivery of essential commodities, production levels at the Company’s operations may be reduced.

There can be no assurance that efforts to mitigate the risks of climate changes will be effective and that the physical risks of climate change will not have an adverse effect on the Company’s operations and profitability.

Claims and Legal Proceedings Risks

The Company is subject to various claims and legal proceedings covering a wide range of matters that arise in the ordinary course of business activities. Each of these matters is subject to various uncertainties and it is possible that some of these other matters may be resolved in a manner that is unfavourable to the Company which may result in a material adverse impact on the Company's financial performance, cash flow or results of operations. First Majestic carries liability insurance coverage and establishes provisions for matters that are probable and can be reasonably estimated, however there can be no guarantee that the amount of such coverage is sufficient to protect against all potential liabilities. In addition, the Company may in the future be subjected to regulatory investigations or other proceedings and may be involved in disputes with other parties in the future which may result in a significant impact on our financial condition, cash flow and results of operations.

Title of Properties
The validity of mining or exploration titles or claims or rights, which constitute most of the Company’s property holdings, can be uncertain and may be contested. The Company has used reasonable commercial efforts to investigate the Company’s title or claim to its various properties, however, no assurance can be given that applicable governments will not revoke or significantly alter the conditions of the applicable exploration and mining titles or claims and that such exploration and mining titles or claims will not be challenged or impugned by third parties. Mining laws are continually developing and changes in such laws could materially impact the Company’s rights to its various properties or interests therein. The Company has obtained title insurance for its Jerritt Canyon Mine but there is a risk that such insurance could be insufficient, or the Company could not be successful in any claim against its insurer. Accordingly, the Company may have little or no recourse as a result of any successful challenge to title to any of its properties. The Company’s properties may be subject to prior unregistered liens, agreements or transfers, land claims or undetected title defects which may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s ability to develop or exploit the properties.

In Mexico, legal rights applicable to mining concessions are different and separate from legal rights applicable to surface lands; accordingly, title holders of mining concessions must obtain agreement from surface landowners to obtain suitable access to mining concessions and for the amount of compensation in respect of mining activities conducted on such land. If the Company is unable to agree to terms of access with the holder of surface rights with respect to a particular claim, the Company may be able to gain access through a regulatory process in Mexico, however there is no guarantee that such process will be successful or timely or that the terms of such access will be favorable to the Company. In any such event, access to the Company's properties may be curtailed, which may result in reductions in production and corresponding reductions in revenue. Any such reductions could have a material adverse effect on the Company, its business and its results of operations.

Primero Tax Rulings
When Primero, the previous owner of San Dimas acquired the San Dimas Mine in August 2010, it assumed the obligations under a Silver Purchase Agreement (“Old Stream Agreement”) that required its subsidiary, PEM, to sell exclusively to Wheaton Precious Metals (“WPMI”) up to 6 million ounces silver produced from the San Dimas Mine, and 50% of silver produced thereafter, at the lower of: (i) the spot market price and (ii) $4.014 per ounce plus an annual increase of 1% (“PEM Realized Price”). In May 2018, the Old Stream Agreement was terminated between WPMI and Silver Trading (Barbados) Limited (“STB”) in connection with the Company entering into a new stream agreement with WPMI concurrent with the acquisition of Primero by the Company.

In order to reflect the commercial terms and the effects of the Old Stream Agreement, for Mexican income tax purposes, PEM recognized the revenue on these silver sales based on the PEM Realized Price instead of at spot market prices.







First Majestic Silver Corp. 2024 Third Quarter Report
Page 34
              


To obtain tax and legal assurance that the Mexican tax authority, Servicio de Administración Tributaria (“SAT”) would accept the PEM Realized Price as the transfer price to calculate Mexican income taxes payable by PEM, a mutually binding Advance Pricing Agreement (“APA”) was entered into with the SAT for taxation years 2010 to 2014. On October 4, 2012, the SAT confirmed that based on the terms of the APA, the PEM Realized Price could be used as PEM’s basis for calculating taxes owed for the silver sold under the Old Stream Agreement.

In August 2015, the SAT commenced a legal process seeking to retroactively nullify the APA.

In 2019, the SAT issued reassessments for the 2010 to 2012 tax years in the total amount of $317.0 million (6,222 million MXN) inclusive of interest, inflation, and penalties. In 2021, the SAT also issued a reassessment against PEM for the 2013 tax year in the total amount of $167.6 million (3,289 million MXN) and in 2023, the SAT issued reassessments for the 2014, 2015, and 2016 tax years in the total amount of $427.2 million (8,385 million MXN) inclusive of interest, inflation, and penalties (collectively, the “Reassessments”). For the 2017 and 2018 tax years, the SAT has initiated audits that have not yet been concluded, and therefore, tax assessments for these years have yet to be issued. The Company believes that the Reassessments fail to recognize the applicability of a valid transfer pricing methodology. The major items in the Reassessments include determination of revenue based on spot market prices of silver, denial of the deductibility of interest expense and service fees, SAT technical error related to double counting of taxes, and interest and penalties.

The Company continues to defend the APA in domestic legal proceedings in Mexico, and the Company has also requested resolution of the transfer pricing dispute pursuant to the Mutual Agreement Procedure (“MAP”), under the relevant avoidance of double taxation treaties, between the competent tax authorities of Mexico, Canada, Luxembourg and Barbados. The SAT has refused to take the necessary steps under the MAP processes contained in the three tax treaties. The Company believes that by its refusal, Mexico is in breach of its international obligations regarding double taxation treaties. Furthermore, the Company continues to believe that the APA remains valid and legally binding on the SAT.

The Company continues to pursue all available domestic and international remedies under the laws of Mexico and under the relevant tax treaties. Furthermore, as discussed further below, the Company has also made claims against Mexico under Chapter 11 of the North American Free Trade Agreement (“NAFTA”) for violation of its international law obligations.

Domestic Remedies

In September 2020, the Company was served with a decision of the Federal Tax Court seeking to nullify the APA granted to PEM. The Company filed an appeal of the decision to the Mexican Circuit Courts on November 30, 2020. As two writs of certiorari were filed before the Mexican Supreme Court of Justice, on April 15, 2021, the Plenary of the Supreme Court i) admitted one of those writs, ii) requested the Circuit Court to send the appeal file to them, and iii) assigned such writ to the Second Chamber of the Supreme Court for issuing the corresponding decision. Both writs of certiorari were withdrawn in December 2022. The challenge filed by the Company was returned to the Second Collegiate Court on February 14, 2023 and on December 5, 2023, the Second Collegiate Court issued a decision, which was formally notified to the Company on January 4, 2024.

In such decision, the Second Collegiate Court partially granted constitutional protection to the Company with respect to certain matters, but not others.

Accordingly, on January 18, 2024, PEM filed an extraordinary appeal to the Mexican Supreme Court of Justice with respect to PEM’s constitutional arguments that were not accepted in the Second Collegiate Court's decision, and following the admission of the appeal, the Second Chamber of the Supreme Court of Justice assumed jurisdiction over the appeal on June 20, 2024. On September 18, 2024, the Supreme Court issued its decision, which was formally notified to the Company on October 15, 2024. The Supreme Court dismissed the Company’s appeal regarding the constitutional arguments, but affirmed the validity of certain precedents of the Supreme Court which the Company believes are favourable to PEM and that were not considered by the Federal Tax Court in its original decision in September 2020. Accordingly, the case will be sent back to the Federal Tax Court to issue a new decision, taking into account such Supreme Court precedents. PEM is currently waiting for the case to be returned to the Federal Tax Court, and expects that a new decision by the Federal Tax Court will be issued in the second half of 2025.

International Remedies

i. NAFTA APA Claim

In respect of the APA, the Company submitted an Arbitration Request dated March 1, 2021 to the International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes ("ICSID"), on its own behalf and on behalf of PEM, pursuant to Chapter 11 of NAFTA (the “NAFTA APA Claim”). The NAFTA Arbitration Panel (the “Tribunal”) was fully constituted on August 20, 2021. Various procedural filings have since been made by the Company and Mexico.

Of note, on May 26, 2023, the Tribunal partially granted certain provisional measures requested by the Company, issuing an order for Mexico to permit the withdrawal of the Company’s VAT refunds for the period as of January 4, 2023 that had been deposited by the SAT into a frozen bank account, and to deposit all future VAT refunds into an account which shall remain freely accessible by the Company (the "PM Decision"). The PM Decision was upheld by the Tribunal on September 1, 2023, in response to a request from Mexico to revoke the decision. As a result, Mexico is obligated to comply with the PM Decision which requires payment of VAT refunds owing to PEM as of January 4, 2023 and into the future until the final award is rendered by the Tribunal. On July 9, 2024, the Company received a transfer of $11.0 million (198.4 million MXN) from the frozen bank account to a new bank account of PEM that the Company had opened in July 2023. The transfer of such funds was carried out by Mexico in furtherance of its obligations under the PM Decision.

In addition, in response to the Company’s counter-arguments to a jurisdictional objection filed by Mexico in late July 2023, the Tribunal dismissed Mexico’s objection, agreeing with the Company that the recovery of VAT refunds under the NAFTA VAT Claim (as defined in the section below) does not breach the waiver under NAFTA (i.e. the NAFTA APA Claim and the NAFTA VAT Claim are not in respect of the same measures).

On February 12, 2024, Mexico filed a request (the “Consolidation Request”) with ICSID pursuant to the procedure in Article 1126 of NAFTA to consolidate the NAFTA APA Claim and the NAFTA VAT Claim into one arbitration proceeding. A separate three-person tribunal to consider the Consolidation Request (the “Consolidation Tribunal”) was constituted on May 8, 2024, and the first procedural hearing of the Consolidation Tribunal took place on July 16, 2024.

In order to expedite the arbitration proceedings, the Company has advised the Consolidation Tribunal and Mexico that it is proposing to add claims covered by the NAFTA VAT Claim to the NAFTA APA Claim as ancillary claims. The Tribunal with jurisdiction over the NAFTA APA Claim has, as of July 15, 2024, granted the Company the right to introduce the ancillary claims to the NAFTA APA Claim, which will make it unnecessary for the NAFTA VAT Claim to proceed separately from the NAFTA APA Claim. On October 1, 2024, the Company submitted its request to the Secretary-General of ICSID to discontinue the NAFTA VAT Claim pursuant to Rule 56 of the 2022 ICSID Arbitration Rules. Mexico objected to the discontinuance on October 7, 2024, so pursuant to Rule 56, the proceedings with respect to the NAFTA VAT Claim will continue. In addition, Mexico filed its Memorial in support of the Consolidation Request on October 7, 2024. The Company is currently preparing its Counter-Memorial, which it is required to file by December 6, 2024.

We expect that the Consolidation Tribunal will make its decision in respect of the Consolidation Request in Q1 2025. Until such a decision has been made, proceedings in both the NAFTA APA Claim and the NAFTA VAT Claim have been suspended. However, any decisions rendered to date by the Tribunal in the NAFTA APA Claim, including but not limited to the PM Decision, remain in force during such suspension.

If the SAT’s attempts to retroactively nullify the APA are successful, the SAT can be expected to enforce any Reassessments for 2010 through 2014 against PEM in respect of its sales of silver pursuant to the Old Stream Agreement. Such an outcome would likely have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. Should the Company ultimately be required to pay tax on its silver revenues based on spot market prices without any mitigating adjustments, the incremental income tax for the years 2010-2019 would be $277.95 million (5,456 million MXN), before taking into consideration interest or penalties.

Based on the Company’s consultation with third party advisors, the Company believes PEM filed its tax returns in compliance with applicable Mexican law and that the APA is valid, therefore, at this time, no liability has been recognized in the financial statements with respect to this matter.

To the extent it is ultimately determined that the pricing for silver sales under the Old Stream Agreement is significantly different from the PEM Realized Price, and while PEM would have rights of appeal in connection with any reassessments, it is likely to have a materially adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial position and results of operations.

ii. NAFTA VAT Claim

On March 31, 2023, the Company filed a new Notice of Intent on its own behalf and on behalf of PEM under the "legacy investment" claim provisions contained in Annex 14-C of the Canada-United States-Mexico Agreement (“CUSMA”) and Chapter 11 of NAFTA to invite the Government of Mexico to engage in discussions to resolve the dispute regarding the ongoing denial of access to PEM’s VAT refunds ("NAFTA VAT Claim") within the stipulated 90-day consultation period. The Company submitted its Arbitration Request for the NAFTA VAT Claim to ICSID on June 29, 2023 in order to preserve its legacy claim within NAFTA's applicable limitation period, and the Arbitration Request was registered by ICSID on July 21, 2023. As a result of the Consolidation Request (described above), the NAFTA VAT Claim has been suspended. As discussed above, on October 1, 2024, the Company submitted its request to the Secretary-General of ICSID to discontinue the NAFTA VAT Claim pursuant to Rule 56 of the 2022 ICSID Arbitration Rules. Mexico objected to the discontinuance on October 7, 2024, so pursuant to Rule 56, the proceedings with respect to the NAFTA VAT Claim will continue.

While the Company remains confident in its position with regards to its two NAFTA claims, it continues to engage with the Government of Mexico in consultation discussions so as to amicably resolve these disputes.

La Encantada Tax Re-assessments

In December 2019, as part of the ongoing annual audits of the tax returns of Minera La Encantada S.A. de C.V. (“MLE”) and Corporacion First Majestic S.A. de C.V. (“CFM”), the SAT issued tax assessments for fiscal 2012 and 2013 for corporate income tax in the amount of $36.9 million (724 million MXN) and $26.8 million (527 million MXN) including interest, inflation and penalties, respectively. In December 2022, the SAT issued tax assessments to MLE for fiscal years 2014 and 2015 for corporate income tax in the amount of $16.8 million (329 million MXN) and $211.1 million (4,144 million MXN).

The major items relate to forward silver purchase agreement and denial of the deductibility of mine development costs and service fees. The Company continues to defend the validity of the forward silver purchase agreement and will vigorously dispute the assessments that have been issued. The Company, based on advice from legal and financial advisors, believes MLE’s tax filings were appropriate and its tax filing position is correct, therefore no liability has been recognized in the financial statements.

In 2023 and 2024, as part of the ongoing annual audits of the tax returns of First Majestic Plata S.A. de C.V. (“FMP”), the SAT issued tax assessment for fiscal 2014, 2015, and 2016 for corporate income tax in the total amount of $60.4 million (1,186 million MXN) including interest, inflation and penalties. The major items relate to forward silver purchase agreement and denial of the deductibility of mine development costs. The Company continues to defend the validity of the forward silver purchase agreement and will vigorously dispute the assessments that have been issued.

advisors, believes FMDT’s tax filings were appropriate and its tax filing position is correct, therefore no liability has been recognized in the financial statements.

CFM Tax Re-assessments

In 2023, as part of the ongoing annual audits of the tax returns of CFM, the SAT issued tax assessment for fiscal 2016 for corporate income tax in the total amount of $73.8 million (1,449 million MXN) including interest, inflation and penalties. The major item relates to planning that took place post-acquisition of Santa Elena (via the acquisition of SilverCrest Mines Inc. on October 1, 2015) at the Canadian level. Mexico contends a right to tax a disposition of the shares of SilverCrest Mines Inc. by First Majestic Silver Corp. although the transaction in question involved the disposition of the shares of one Canadian company by another Canadian company and was reported for tax purposes in Canada. The Company continues to defend the validity of the transaction in question and will vigorously dispute the assessments that have been issued. The Company, based on advice from legal and financial advisors, believes CFM’s tax filings were appropriate and its tax filing position is correct, therefore no liability has been recognized in the financial statements.

First Silver litigation

In April 2013, the Company received a positive judgment on the First Silver litigation from the Supreme Court of British Columbia (the “Court”), which awarded the sum of $93.8 million in favour of First Majestic against Hector Davila Santos (the “Defendant”) in connection with a dispute between the Company and the Defendant and his private company involving a mine in Mexico (the “Bolaños Mine”) as set out further below. The Company received a sum of $14.1 million in June 2013 as partial payment of the judgment, leaving an unpaid amount of $64.3 million (CAD$81.5 million). As part of the ruling, the Court granted orders restricting any transfer or encumbrance of the Bolaños Mine by the Defendant and limiting mining at the Bolaños Mine. The orders also require the Defendant to preserve net cash flow from the Bolaños Mine in a holding account and periodically provide to the Company certain information regarding the Bolaños Mine. After many years of domestic Mexican litigation, the enforceability of the British Columbia judgment was finally recognized by the Mexican Supreme Court in a written judgment on November 11, 2022. The Company has commenced collection actions in Mexico against the Defendant’s assets and continues to seek recovery of the balance against one of the Defendant’s assets located in the United States. Nonetheless, there can be no guarantee that the remainder of the judgment amount will be collected. Therefore, as at September 30, 2024, the Company has not accrued any of the remaining $64.3 million (CAD$81.5 million) unrecovered judgment in favour of the Company.

OTHER FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As at September 30, 2024, the Company had no material off-balance sheet arrangements such as contingent interest in assets transferred to an entity, derivative instruments obligations or any obligations that generate financing, liquidity, market or credit risk to the Company, other than contingent liabilities and vendor liability and interest, as disclosed in this MD&A and the consolidated financial statements and the related notes.

Share Repurchase Program

On September 12, 2024, the Company established a share repurchase program (the “Share Repurchase Program”) which permits it to repurchase up to 10,000,000 common shares (3.32% of the Company’s issued and outstanding common shares as at September 4, 2024) up to September 12, 2025. The Share Repurchase Program is a “normal course issuer bid” and will be carried out through the facilities of the Toronto Stock Exchange and alternative Canadian marketplaces. All common shares, if any, purchased pursuant to the Share Repurchase Program will be cancelled. The Company believes that from time to time, the market price of its common shares may not fully reflect the underlying value of the Company’s business and its future business prospects. The Company believes that at such times, the purchase of common shares under the Share Repurchase Program would be in the best interest of the Company. During the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Company did not repurchase any common shares under the Share Repurchase Program.

Related Party Disclosures

In July 2020, the Company entered into a streaming agreement with First Mining to purchase 50% of the payable silver produced over the life of the Springpole Gold Project for total consideration of $22.5 million in cash and shares, over three payments. Keith Neumeyer, our President & Chief Executive Officer, and Raymond Polman, a director of the Company, are each directors of First Mining and accordingly may be considered to have a conflict of interest with respect to First Mining and the Springpole Silver Stream Agreement.

With the exception of the agreement with First Mining, there were no significant transactions with related parties during the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Outstanding Share Data

As at November 6, 2024, the Company has 301,764,216 common shares issued and outstanding. In addition, the following awards that were granted under the Company’s long-term incentive plan were outstanding as at November 6, 2024:

Stock options 7,965,744 
Restricted share units (share-settled)1,451,747 
Deferred share units (share-settled)30,161 
Performance share units (share-settled)962,259 
Total10,409,911 

On December 2, 2021, the Company issued an aggregate of $230 million principal amount of 0.375% unsecured convertible senior notes due January 15, 2027 (the “Notes”). The Notes may be converted by the holders, in whole or in part, at any time. The initial conversion rate for the Notes is 60.3865 common shares per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $16.56 per common share (subject to certain adjustment provisions, one of which requires an adjustment in connection with the payment of any dividends by the Company).

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The following significant events have occurred subsequent to September 30, 2024:

Filing of F-4 Registration Statement in connection with the Acquisition of Gatos

Subsequent to quarter end, the Company filed a registration statement on Form F-4 with the SEC in order to register the issuance of the common shares to be issued to shareholders of Gatos in connection with the Company’s acquisition of Gatos. The Company’s acquisition of Gatos is expected to close in early 2025, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including approvals of the shareholders of First Majestic and Gatos, clearance under Mexican anti-trust laws, and approval of the listing of the First Majestic common shares to be issued under the Merger Agreement on both the TSX and the NYSE.

Declaration of Quarterly Dividend

On November 6, 2024, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the declaration of its quarterly common share dividend of $0.0048 per share, payable on or after November 29, 2024, to common shareholders of record as at the close of business on November 15, 2024. This dividend was declared subsequent to the quarter-end and has not been recognized as a distribution to owners during the period ended September 30, 2024.

ACCOUNTING POLICIES, JUDGMENTS AND ESTIMATES

Critical Accounting Judgments and Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Although these estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of the amount, events or actions, actual results may differ from these estimates.

Within the Company’s condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, there were no changes in critical accounting judgments and estimates that were significantly different from those disclosed in the Company’s annual MD&A as at and for the year ended December 31, 2023. These were applied in conjunction with the following accounting policies, critical judgments and estimates:

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

In the current year, the Company has applied the below amendments to IFRS Standards and Interpretations issued by the IASB that were effective for annual periods that begin on or after January 1, 2024. Their adoption has not had any material impact on the disclosures or on the amounts reported in these financial statements.

Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-Current with Covenants (Amendments to IAS 1)

The amendments aim to promote consistency in applying the requirements by helping companies determine whether, in the statement of financial position, debt and other liabilities with an uncertain settlement date should be classified as current (due or potentially due to be settled within one year) or non-current.

In addition, the amendment requires entities to disclose information to enable users of the financial statements to understand the risk that non-current liabilities with covenants could become repayable within twelve months. The amendments were applied effective January 1, 2024 and did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Lease Liability in a Sale and Leaseback (Amendments to IFRS 16)

The amendments require a seller-lessee to subsequently measure lease liabilities arising from a leaseback in a way that it does not recognize any amount of the gain or loss that relates to the right of use it retains. The new requirements do not prevent a seller-lessee from recognizing in profit or loss any gain or loss relating to the partial or full termination of a lease. A seller-lessee applies the amendments retrospectively in accordance with IAS 8 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors to sale and leaseback transactions entered into after the date of initial application. The amendments were applied effective January 1, 2024 and did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Supplier Financing Arrangements (Amendments to IAS 7 and IFRS 7)

The amendments require disclosures regarding the effects of supplier finance arrangements on their liabilities, cash flows and exposure to liquidity risk. Entities are required to disclose the following:

The terms and conditions;
The amount of the liabilities that are part of the arrangements, breaking out the amounts for which the suppliers have already received payment from the finance providers, and stating where the liabilities are reflected in the balance sheet;
Ranges of payment due dates; and
Liquidity risk information.

The amendments were applied effective January 1, 2024 and did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Future Changes in Accounting Policies Not Yet Effective as at September 30, 2024:

At the date of authorization of these financial statements, the Company has not applied the following new and revised IFRS Accounting Standards that have been issued but are not yet effective. Management does not expect that the adoption of the standards listed below will have a material impact on the financial statements of the Company in future periods, except if indicated.

Lack of Exchangeability (Amendments to IAS 21)

The amendments clarify how an entity should assess whether a currency is exchangeable and how it should determine a spot exchange rate when exchangeability is lacking. In addition, the amendments require the disclosure of information that enables users of financial statements to understand the impact of a currency not being exchangeable.

The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2025, although earlier application is permitted. This amendment is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements (Amendment to IFRS 18)

In April 2024, the IASB released IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements. IFRS 18 replaces IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements while carrying forward many of the requirements in IAS 1. IFRS 18 introduces new requirements to: i) present specified categories and defined subtotals in the statement of earnings, ii) provide disclosures on management-defined performance measures (MPMs) in the notes to the financial statements, iii) improve aggregation and disaggregation. Some of the requirements in IAS 1 are moved to IAS 8 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors and IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures. The IASB also made minor amendments to IAS 7 Statement of Cash Flows and IAS 33 Earnings per Share in connection with the new standard. IFRS 18 requires retrospective application with specific transition provisions.

The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027, although earlier application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of IFRS 18 on its Company’s consolidated financial statements.

NON-GAAP MEASURES

The Company has included certain non-GAAP measures including “Cash costs per silver equivalents ounce”, “All-in sustaining cost (“AISC”) per silver equivalent ounce”, “AISC per gold ounce”, “Production cost per tonne”, “Average realized silver price per silver equivalent ounce”, “Average realized gold price”, “Adjusted net earnings”, “Adjusted earnings per share”, “Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization” (“EBITDA”), “Adjusted EBITDA”, “Free cash flow” and “Working capital” to supplement its consolidated financial statements, which are presented in accordance with IFRS. The terms IFRS and generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) are used interchangeably throughout this MD&A.

The Company believes that these measures, together with measures determined in accordance with IFRS, provide investors with an improved ability to evaluate the underlying performance of the Company. Non-GAAP measures do not have any standardized meaning prescribed under IFRS and the methods used by the Company to calculate such measures may differ from methods used by other companies with similar descriptions, therefore they may not be comparable to similar measures employed by other companies. The data is intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS.

Cash Cost per AgEq Ounce, AISC per AgEq Ounce, AISC per Au Ounce, and Production Cost per Tonne

Cash costs per AgEq ounce and total production cost per tonne are non-GAAP performance measures used by the Company to manage and evaluate operating performance at each of the Company’s operating mining units, in conjunction with the related GAAP amounts. These metrics are widely reported in the mining industry as benchmarks for performance but do not have a standardized meaning and are disclosed in addition to IFRS measures. Management and investors use these metrics for comparing the costs against peers in the industry and for assessing the performance of each mine within the portfolio.

Management calculates the cash costs per ounce and production costs per tonne by:
starting with the production costs (GAAP) from the income statement;
adding back duties and royalties, smelting and refining costs as well as transportation and selling costs, which form a part of the cost of sales on the financial statements and provide a better representation of total costs incurred;
cash costs are divided by the payable silver equivalent ounces produced; and
production costs are divided by the total tonnes milled.

AISC is a non-GAAP performance measure and was calculated based on guidance provided by the World Gold Council (“WGC”). WGC is not a regulatory industry organization and does not have the authority to develop accounting standards for disclosure requirements. Other mining companies may calculate AISC differently as a result of differences in underlying accounting principles and policies applied, as well as differences in definitions of sustaining versus expansionary capital expenditures. AISC is a more comprehensive measure than cash cost per ounce and is useful for investors and management to assess the Company’s operating performance by providing greater visibility, comparability and representation of the total costs associated with producing silver from its current operations, in conjunction with related GAAP amounts. AISC helps investors to assess costs against peers in the industry and help management assess the performance of each mine within the portfolio in a standardized manner.

The Company defines sustaining capital expenditures as “costs incurred to sustain and maintain existing assets at current productive capacity and constant planned levels of productive output without resulting in an increase in the life of assets, future earnings, or improvements in recovery or grade. Sustaining capital includes costs required to improve/enhance assets to minimum standards for reliability, environmental or safety requirements. Sustaining capital expenditures excludes all expenditures at the Company’s new projects and certain expenditures at current operations which are deemed expansionary in nature.”

Expansionary capital expenditures are defined by the Company as "costs incurred to extend existing assets beyond their current productive capacity and beyond their planned levels of productive output, resulting in an increase in the life of the assets, increasing their future earnings potential, or improving their recoveries or grades which would serve to increase the value of the assets over their useful lives". Development and exploration work which moves inferred resources to measured or indicated resources and adds to the Net Present Value of the assets is considered expansionary in nature. Expansionary capital also includes costs required to improve/enhance assets beyond their minimum standard for reliability, environmental or safety requirements.

Consolidated AISC includes total production costs (GAAP measure) incurred at the Company’s mining operations, which forms the basis of the Company’s total cash costs. Additionally, the Company includes sustaining capital expenditures, corporate general and administrative expenses, share-based payments, operating lease payments and reclamation cost accretion. AISC by mine does not include certain corporate and non-cash items such as general and administrative expense and share-based payments. The Company believes this measure represents the total sustainable costs of producing silver from current operations and provides additional information of the Company’s operational performance and ability to generate cash flows. As the measure seeks to reflect the full cost of silver production from current operations, new projects and expansionary capital at current operations are not included. Certain other cash expenditures, including tax payments, dividends and financing costs are also not included.

Average Realized Silver Price per Silver Equivalent Ounce

Revenues are presented as the net sum of invoiced revenues related to delivered shipments of silver or gold doré bars, including associated metal by-products of lead and zinc after having deducted refining and smelting charges, and after elimination of intercompany shipments of silver, silver being minted into coins, ingots and bullion products.

The average realized silver price is a non-GAAP performance measure that allows management and investors to assess the Company’s ability to sell ounces produced, in conjunction with related GAAP amounts. Management calculates this measure by taking total revenue reported under GAAP and adding back smelting and refining charges to arrive at the gross reportable revenue for the period. Gross revenues are divided into payable silver equivalent ounces sold to calculate the average realized price per ounce of silver equivalents sold. The streaming and royalty agreements in place between the Company and Sandstorm as well as Wheaton, impacts the total revenues reported on the financial statements given the reduced prices provided to these vendors in line with the terms of the agreements. Therefore, management adjusts revenue to exclude smelting and refining charges as well as revenues earned through agreements with these vendors. This provides management with a better picture regarding its ability to convert ounces produced to ounces sold and provides the investor with a clear picture of the price that the Company can currently sell the inventory for, excluding pre-arranged agreements.

Average Realized Gold Price per Ounce

Revenues are presented as the net sum of invoiced revenues related to delivered shipments of silver or gold doré bars, including associated metal by-products of lead and zinc after having deducted refining and smelting charges, and after elimination of intercompany shipments of silver, silver being minted into coins, ingots and bullion products.

The average realized gold price is a non-GAAP performance measure that allows management and investors to assess the Company’s ability to sell ounces produced, in conjunction with related GAAP amounts. Management calculates this measure by taking total revenue reported under GAAP and adding back smelting and refining charges to arrive at the gross reportable revenue for the period. Silver revenues are deducted from the reportable revenue for the period in order to arrive at the gold revenue for the period. Gross gold revenues are divided into gold ounces sold to calculate the average realized price per ounce of gold sold. The streaming and royalty agreements in place between the Company and Sandstorm as well as Wheaton, impacts the total revenues reported on the financial statements given the reduced prices provided to these vendors in line with the terms of the agreements. Therefore, management adjusts revenue to exclude smelting and refining charges as well as revenues earned through agreements with these vendors.

Free Cash Flow

Free cash flow is a non-GAAP liquidity measure which is determined based on operating cash flows less sustaining capital expenditures. Management uses free cash flow as a critical measure in the evaluation of liquidity in conjunction with related GAAP amounts. It also uses the measure when considering available cash, including for decision-making purposes related to dividends and discretionary investments. Further, it helps management, the Board of Directors and investors evaluate a Company’s ability to generate liquidity from operating activities.

Adjusted Earnings per Share (“Adjusted EPS”)

The Company uses the financial measure “Adjusted EPS” which is a non-GAAP measure, to supplement earnings per share (GAAP) information in its consolidated financial statements. The Company believes that, in addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with IFRS, the Company and certain investors and analysts use this information to evaluate the Company’s performance.

Management uses adjusted earnings per share as a critical measure of operating performance in conjunction with the related GAAP amounts. The only items considered in the adjusted earnings-per-share calculation are those that management believes (1) may affect trends in underlying performance from year to year and (2) are not considered normal recurring cash operating expenses.

Adjusted earnings per share is used for forecasting, operational and strategic decision making, evaluating current Company and management performance, and calculating financial covenants. Management believes that excluding certain non-cash and non-recurring items from the calculation increases comparability of the metric from period to period, which makes it useful for management, the audit committee and investors, to evaluate the underlying core operations. The presentation of Adjusted EPS is not meant to be a substitute for EPS presented in accordance with IFRS, but rather should be evaluated in conjunction with such IFRS measure.

To calculate adjusted earnings per share, management adjusts from net earnings (GAAP), the per-share impact, net of the tax effects of adjustments, of the following:
share based payments;
realized and unrealized gains and losses from investment in derivatives and marketable securities; and
other infrequent or non-recurring losses and gains.

The following table provides a detailed reconciliation of net earnings (losses) as reported in the Company’s condensed interim consolidated financial statements to adjusted net earnings and Adjusted EPS:

Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) and Adjusted EBITDA

The Company started using the financial measures “EBITDA” and “Adjusted EBITDA” in the third quarter of 2024, which are both non-GAAP measures, to supplement net earnings (GAAP) information in its consolidated financial statements. The Company believes that, in addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with IFRS, the Company and certain investors and analysts use this information to evaluate the Company’s performance.

Management uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as a critical measure of operating performance in conjunction with the related GAAP amounts. EBITDA is profit before net finance expense, provision for income taxes, and depreciation and amortization. The only items considered in the Adjusted EBITDA calculation are those that management believes (1) may affect trends in underlying performance from year to year and (2) are not considered normal recurring cash operating expenses.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is used for forecasting, operational and strategic decision making and evaluating current Company and management performance. Management believes that excluding certain non-cash and non-recurring items from the EBITDA calculation increases comparability of the metric from period to period, which makes it useful for management, the audit committee and investors, to evaluate the underlying core operations. The presentation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is not meant to be a substitute for net earnings presented in accordance with IFRS, but rather should be evaluated in conjunction with such IFRS measure.

To calculate EBITDA, management adjusts from net earnings (GAAP) by adding back finances costs, depletion, depreciation and amortization, and income taxes. To calculate Adjusted EBITDA, management adjusts from EBITDA, net of the tax effects of adjustments, the following:
share-based payments;
realized and unrealized gains and losses from investment in derivatives and marketable securities; and
other infrequent or non-recurring losses and gains.

The following table provides a detailed reconciliation of net earnings (losses) as reported in the Company’s condensed interim consolidated financial statements to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA:

MANAGEMENT’S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management, with the participation of its President & Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon the results of that evaluation, the Company’s CEO and CFO have concluded that, as at September 30, 2024, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports it files is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the appropriate time periods and is accumulated and communicated to management, including the CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Internal Control over Financial Reporting

The Company’s management, with the participation of its CEO and CFO, is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as such term is defined in the rules of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission and the Canadian Securities Administrators. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that:

maintain records that accurately and fairly reflect, in reasonable detail, the transactions and dispositions of assets of the Company;
•     provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary for preparation of financial statements in accordance with IFRS as issued by IASB;
provide reasonable assurance that the Company’s receipts and expenditures are made only in accordance with authorizations of management and the Company’s Directors; and
• provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

The Company’s internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect all misstatements because of inherent limitations. Additionally, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness for future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with the Company’s policies and procedures.

The Company’s management evaluated the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting based upon the criteria set forth in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on management’s evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that our internal controls over financial reporting was effective as of September 30, 2024. There have been no significant changes in our internal controls during the quarter ended September 30, 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, internal control over financial reporting.






First Majestic Silver Corp. 2024 Third Quarter Report
Page 52
              


Limitations of Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management, including the President and CEO and CFO, believes that any disclosure controls and procedures or internal control over financial reporting, no matter how well conceived and operated, may not prevent or detect all misstatements because of inherent limitations. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, they cannot provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been prevented or detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple errors or mistakes. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by unauthorized override of the control. The design of any control system also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Accordingly, because of the inherent limitations in a cost effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
