NOTES TO THE CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 All tabular amounts are in thousands of United States dollars, unless otherwise stated (Unaudited) |
1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS
Mako Mining Corp. ("Mako" or the "Company") was incorporated on April 1, 2004, under the laws of the Yukon Territory and continued into British Columbia under the British Columbia Corporations Act. The Company is listed on the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSX-V") under the symbol MKO. The address of the Company's corporate office and principal place of business is Suite 700 - 838 West Hastings Street, Vancouver, BC, V6C 0A6, Canada.
On March 27, 2025, the Company acquired EG Acquisition LLC (individually, or collectively with its subsidiaries, as applicable, "EGA"), whereby Mako US Corp. acquired all of EGA's issued and outstanding common shares, resulting in the acquisition of the Moss mine, in Arizona, USA (the "Moss Transaction") (Note 6).
On July 3, 2024, the Company acquired Goldsource Mines Inc. (individually, or collectively with its subsidiaries, as applicable, "Goldsource"), whereby Mako acquired all of Goldsource's issued and outstanding common shares, resulting in the acquisition of the Eagle Mountain Property, in Guyana, South America.
Mako is a gold mining and exploration company. The Company's primary asset is the San Albino mine, an open pit mine located in Nicaragua, and the Moss mine, also an open pit operation. In addition to its mining operations, Mako continues to explore its other concessions in Nicaragua, Guyana and the USA.
2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
(a) Statement of compliance
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IFRS Accounting Standards"), as applicable to the preparation of interim financial statements including International Accounting Standard 34, Interim Financial Reporting ("IAS 34"). Accordingly, they do not include all the information and notes to the consolidated financial statements required by IFRS Accounting Standards for annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Company's most recent audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024.
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements were authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on August 19, 2025.
(b) Basis of presentation
The accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements are the same as those applied in the Company's most recent audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024, except for:
Inventories
Inventory includes work in progress inventory in the form of stockpiled ore, ore in-circuit and heap leach ore inventory, finished goods inventory, and supplies and spare parts.
• Stockpiled ore represents unprocessed ore that has been mined and is available for future processing. Stockpiled ore is measured by estimating the number of tonnes through physical surveys and contained ounces through grade reconciliation via the ore control process.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 All tabular amounts are in thousands of United States dollars, unless otherwise stated (Unaudited) |
• Ore in-circuit inventory represents material that is currently being processed to extract the contained gold into a saleable form, typically unrefined doré. The amount of gold in-circuit is determined by assay values and by measure of the various gold bearing materials in the recovery process.
• Heap leach ore inventory represents estimated gold and silver ounces contained in ore that has been placed on the heap leach pad for cyanide irrigation. When ore is placed on the heap leach pad, an estimate of recoverable ounces is made based on tonnage, grade and estimated recoveries of the ore that was placed on the heap leach pad. The estimated recoverable ounces on the heap leach pad are used to determine inventory cost. The estimated recoverable ounces carried on the heap leach pad are adjusted based on actual recoveries being experienced. Actual and estimated recoveries are measured to the extent possible, using various indicators including but not limited to, leach curve recoveries, column tests and current trends in the level of ounces carried on the pad.
• Finished metal inventory consists of gold in doré awaiting refinement, or bullion.
• Supplies and spare parts inventory consist of consumables used in operations, such as fuel, chemicals, reagents and spare parts.
Cost of work in progress inventory and finished goods includes all direct costs incurred in production including mining; crushing, leaching and processing; site administration costs; and allocated indirect costs, including depreciation and amortization of mineral property, plant and equipment. Inventory costs are charged to production costs on the basis of the quantity of metal sold. Cost of supplies and spare parts inventory include acquisition, freight and other directly attributable costs.
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis except for certain financial instruments that are measured at fair value.
(c) Basis of consolidation
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions, balances, revenues and expenses have been eliminated upon consolidation.
Subsidiaries are included in the condensed interim consolidated financial statements from the date control is obtained until the date of disposition or until control ceases. Control exists when the Company has exposure or rights to variable returns from its involvement with an entity, and the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity.
The condensed interim consolidated financial statements of the Company include the following subsidiaries:
| Subsidiary |

3. NEW ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND STANDARDS ADOPTED
There are no new accounting policies and standards adopted since December 31, 2024.
4. RECENT IFRS PRONOUNCEMENTS ISSUED BUT NOT YET EFFECTIVE
The recent IFRS pronouncements issued but not yet effective are consistent with those disclosed in Note 4 of the Company's consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024.
5. ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY AND JUDGMENTS IN APPLYING THE COMPANY'S ACOUNTING POLICIES
The preparation of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgments about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed at each period end. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected.
Outlined below are the key areas which require management to make significant judgements, estimates and assumptions in determining carrying values.
Areas where estimation uncertainty have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the condensed interim consolidated financial statements include:
(a) Estimated mineral resources
Mineral resources are estimates of the amount of metal that can be extracted from the Company's properties, considering both economic and legal factors. The Company estimates the quantity and/or grade of its mineral resources based on information compiled by appropriately qualified persons relating to the geological data on the size, depth and shape of the ore body, and requires judgments to interpret the complex geological data. Calculating mineral resources is based upon factors such as estimates of metallurgical recoveries along with geological assumptions and judgments made in estimating the size and grade of the ore body. Changes in the mineral resources may affect the Company's financial position in a number of ways, including:

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 All tabular amounts are in thousands of United States dollars, unless otherwise stated (Unaudited) |
(b) Reclamation and remediation provisions
Reclamation and remediation provisions represent the present value of estimated future costs for the reclamation of the Company's mines and properties. These estimates include assumptions as to the cost of services, timing of the reclamation work to be performed, inflation rates, foreign exchange rates and interest rates. The reclamation and closure estimates are more uncertain the further into the future the activities are to be performed.
The actual cost to reclaim a mine may vary from the estimated amounts because there are uncertainties in factors used to estimate the cost and potential changes in regulations or laws governing the reclamation of a mine. Management periodically reviews the reclamation requirements as new information becomes available and will assess the impact of new regulations and laws as they are enacted. Any changes to assumptions will result in an adjustment to the provision which affects the Company's liabilities and either its mining interest, plant and equipment or statement of income.
(c) Stockpiled ore, ore in-circuit and heap leach ore net realizable value ("NRV")
Management applies significant judgment in developing the NRV of stockpiled ore, ore in-circuit and heap leach ore inventory, including assumptions related to estimated recoverable ounces of gold within stockpiled ore and ore in-circuit inventory, the estimated forecasted gold price per ounce, estimated costs of completion and selling expenses.
(d) Depreciation, depletion and amortization
The Company uses the units of production method to deplete mineral properties and the straight-line method to amortize plant and equipment. The calculation of the unit of production rate and the useful life and residual values of plant and equipment, and therefore the annual depletion and depreciation expense, could be materially affected by changes in the underlying estimates. Changes in estimates can be the result of changes in the Company's mine plans, changes in the estimation of mineral resources and changes in the estimated remaining life or residual value of plant and equipment.
Areas where accounting policy judgements have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the consolidated financial statements include:
(e) Exploration versus Development Expenditures
The classification of exploration versus development expenditures requires management to make significant judgements. Exploration expenditures are incurred during the search for mineral resources, while development expenditures relate to preparing identified resources for commercial production.
Judgement is required to determine the point at which exploration activities transition to development activities, which involves assessing factors such as the technical feasibility and commercial viability of extracting the resource. These judgements are made considering the specific circumstances of each project and are reviewed periodically to reflect any changes in economic or operational factors.
These determinations can materially impact the financial statements, as exploration expenditures are expensed as incurred, whereas development expenditures may be capitalized as part of the asset's cost.
(f) Business combinations and asset acquisitions
The assessment of whether an acquisition meets the definition of a business or whether it is a purchase of assets is a key area of judgment. If deemed to be a business combination, the acquisition method requires acquired assets and liabilities assumed to be recorded at fair value as of the date of acquisition with the excess of the purchase consideration over such fair value being recorded as goodwill. Where an acquisition involves a purchase of assets the purchase price is allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their relative fair value and no goodwill arises on the transaction. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company acquired the Moss mine, which was determined to be a purchase of assets (Note 6).

(g) Deferred income taxes
The determination of income tax expense and deferred income tax involves judgment and estimates as to the future taxable earnings, expected timing of reversals of deferred tax assets and liabilities, and interpretation of laws in the countries in which the Company operates. The Company is subject to assessments by tax authorities who may interpret the tax law differently. Changes in these estimates may materially affect the final amount of deferred income taxes or the timing of tax payments.
(h) Impairment of non-current assets
Management applies significant judgment in its assessment and evaluation of asset or cash generating units at each reporting date to determine whether there are any indications of impairment. The Company considers both internal and external sources of information when making the assessment of whether there are indications of impairment for the Company's mineral properties, buildings, plant and equipment, development asset and to exploration and evaluation assets.
External sources of information considered are changes in the Company's economic, legal and regulatory environment, which it does not control, but affect the recoverability of its mining assets. Internal sources of information the Company considers include the manner in which mining properties and the buildings, plant and equipment are being used or are expected to be used and indications of economic performance of the assets. Calculating the fair value less costs of disposal of cash generating units for impairment tests requires management to make estimates and assumptions with respect to future production levels, operating, capital and closure costs, future metal prices and discount rates.
For exploration and evaluation assets, indicators of impairment may include (i) the period during which the Company has the right to explore in the specific area has expired during the period or will expire in the near future and is not expected to be renewed, (ii) substantive expenditure on further exploration for and evaluation of mineral resources in the specific area is neither budgeted nor planned, (iii) exploration for and evaluation of mineral resources in the specific area have not led to the discovery of commercially viable quantities of mineral resources and the entity has decided to discontinue such activities in the specific area; and sufficient data exists to indicate that the carrying value of the exploration and evaluation asset is unlikely to be recovered in full from successful development or by sale.
Changes in any of the assumptions or estimates used in determining the fair values could impact the impairment analysis. Management identified no impairment indicators as of June 30, 2025.
6. ACQUISTION OF EG ACQUISITION LLC
On March 27, 2025, the Company's subsidiary Mako US Corp. completed the acquisition of EGA, acquiring 100% of the issued and outstanding common shares from Wexford EG Acquisition LLC ("Wexford EGA") an entity owned by the Company's significant shareholder. EGA owns 100% of the common shares of GVC, which owns the Moss mine. On completion of the transaction, the Company acquired 100% of the Moss Mine.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 All tabular amounts are in thousands of United States dollars, unless otherwise stated (Unaudited) |
The acquisition has been accounted for as a purchase of assets as the Company concluded that it did not acquire processes that could develop the acquired inputs into an operating mine.
Wexford EGA acquired GVC from Elevation Gold Mining Corporation ("Elevation") under a Companies' Creditors Arrangement Act proceeding and related Chapter 15 proceeding in the United States (the "Bankruptcy Process") on December 31, 2024.
The purchase price for the Company's acquisition of EGA is composed of the following:

The total purchase price was allocated based on the relative fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including the mining interest and working capital. The provision for reclamation and rehabilitation was initially measured in accordance with IAS 37. The value of the building, equipment and the mining interest was determined based on a discounted cash flow model using a two-year life of mine.
(a) Restricted Cash
The Company maintains restricted cash balances related to collateral security for reclamation bonds. These reclamation bonds are required by regulatory authorities to ensure financial assurance for the Company's future reclamation obligations associated with its mining operations at the Moss mine.
![]() |
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 All tabular amounts are in thousands of United States dollars, unless otherwise stated (Unaudited) |
On June 20, 2025, restricted cash of $1,503,335 held for reclamation bond purposes was released to the Company.
As of June 30, 2025, the total restricted cash held for reclamation bond purposes amounts to $1,757,761, which is classified as non-current on the balance sheet based on the anticipated timing of the bond release conditions.
These funds are held in designated accounts and cannot be used for general corporate purposes unless released by the relevant issuer of the reclamation bond upon fulfillment of specific requirements. The Company continues to monitor and assess its reclamation obligations to ensure compliance with applicable environmental regulations and financial assurance requirements.
(b) Contingent Consideration - Royalty agreement settlements
The 1% net smelter return royalty at the Moss mine held by affiliates of Sandstorm Gold Ltd. and the 3% net smelter return royalty at the Moss mine held by Patriot Gold Corporation (collectively, the "Royalty Holders") are currently being disputed by Elevation as part of the Bankruptcy Process whereby the court is asked to declare the validity of the real property interests asserted by the Royalty Holders ("Royalty Agreements").
Should Elevation be successful in invalidating the Royalty Agreement or if an agreement is reached with the Royalty Holders to terminate Royalty Agreements by December 31, 2025, the Company will pay Elevation $1,500,000.
The purchase price includes an accrual for the settlement of the royalty disputes that arose in connection with the Bankruptcy Process, involving the 1% net smelter return royalty at the Moss mine held by affiliates of Sandstorm Gold Ltd. and the 3% net smelter return royalty at the Moss mine held by Patriot Gold Corporation, which are still before the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Arizona.
The fair value of the Contingent Consideration has been determined using the expected value approach in accordance with IFRS 13, Fair value measurements. The Contingent Consideration is recognized as a liability at amortized cost. The expected value approach develops a set of probability-based outcomes for the Contingent Consideration discounted based on market participant assumptions to determine the fair value. The assumptions used in the valuation included the likelihood of success in vesting away the royalties, and timing of the court settlement. The fair value of the Contingent Consideration was estimated to be $1,000,000 at the acquisition date.
On June 30, 2025, the Company reassessed the likelihood of the cash flow for the Contingent Consideration and determined that it was remote following the subsequent acquisition of the secured indebtedness (the "Debt") owed by Elevation to Maverix Metals Inc. ("Maverix") on July 2, 2025.
Refer to Note 21 (a). A gain of $1,000,000 on the elimination of Contingent Consideration was recognized in the statement of income and comprehensive income for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

(a) Wexford Loan and Revised Wexford Loan
On March 27, 2024, the Company entered into an eighth amending agreement for the Wexford Loan wherein the Company and the Wexford Catalyst Trading Limited, Wexford Spectrum Trading Limited, Debello Trading Limited and Wexford Focused Trading Limited (collectively, the "Lenders") agreed to further extend the maturity date from March 31, 2025 to March 31, 2029 and to transfer the existing facility comprised of accrued interest and cash bonus interest into a new term loan with a balance of $6,287,872. The new loan accrues interest at a rate of 10% per annum compounded semi-annually and matures on March 31, 2029. Due to the substantial modification of the terms of the agreement, management accounted for this transaction as an extinguishment of the original financial liability and replacement with a new financial liability (the "Revised Wexford Loan").
The Company used an effective interest rate of 18%, the estimated market interest rate for non-related parties based on comparable debt when valuing the Revised Wexford Loan upon initial recognition and assumed the accrued interest and principal would be paid at maturity. As a result, the Company recorded a capital contribution from a related party of $2,088,329 directly in contributed surplus during the year ended December 31, 2024, arising from the difference between the actual rate and the estimated market rate. The Revised Wexford Loan is measured at amortized cost and will be accreted to maturity over the term using the effective interest method.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 All tabular amounts are in thousands of United States dollars, unless otherwise stated (Unaudited) |
At December 31, 2024, the Company changed its estimated timing of cash flows with respect to the Revised Wexford Loan and expects to make interest payments on a semi-annual basis over the remaining term of the agreement. As a result, the Company recalculated the gross carrying amount of the liability and recognized a remeasurement loss of $482,736.
On January 2, 2025, an interest payment of $316,978 was made on the Revised Wexford Loan. Refer to Note 21 (b).
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company recorded $228,997 and $450,450 ($2024: $215,708 and $313,533) of accretion and accrued interest on the Revised Wexford Loan all of which has been expensed, respectively.
(b) Sailfish Silver Loan Derivative Liability
(i) On May 24, 2023, the Company entered into an agreement with Sailfish, whereby Sailfish advanced $6,000,000 (received, May 25, 2023) for the delivery of a fixed number of ounces of silver (13,500), on the last day of the month or the gold equivalent, for a period of 24 months ("Silver Loan"). Interest on the Silver Loan is accrued at US Prime (8.25%) plus four percent per annum, calculated daily on undelivered ounces when due. Sailfish also has the option, exercisable after 12 months from entering the Silver Loan, to purchase all remaining future silver production from the Company's San Albino-Murra concession for an additional $1,000,000. Refer to note 11 (ii).
The Company determined that the stream obligation is a derivative liability, and as such, the stream obligation is recorded at FVTPL at each statement of financial position date.
On April 28, 2025, the Company delivered the final installment of 13,500 ounces of silver on the Sailfish Silver Loan.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company delivered one and four installments (2024: three and three) totaling 13,500 and 54,000 (2024: 40,500 and 81,000) ounces of silver, respectively.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, a change in the fair value of the Silver Loan of $8,195 and $261,137 (2024: $925,196 and $1,300,036) was recorded in change in fair value of derivative liability in the statement of income and comprehensive income.
As of June 30, 2025, the Company has no outstanding instalments remaining.
(ii) Sailfish Silver Option
On April 28, 2025, Sailfish exercised its option to purchase all remaining future silver production from the Company's San Albino-Murra concession for $1,000,000 ("Sailfish Silver Option"). The Company accounted for the arrangement as a partial disposal of mineral interest as Sailfish is entitled to all future silver production and is exposed to the risks and rewards of ownership as a result, and whereas the Company has sold its right to the future economic benefits from the production of silver.
In accordance with IAS 16 Property, Plant, and Equipment, the portion of the mineral interest attributable to the additional refined silver was derecognized upon exercise of the Sailfish Silver Option based on the proportion of expected silver output relative to total production over the life of the mine in the amount $144,052. A gain of $855,958 was calculated at the time of derecognition as the Company has no obligation to produce and future extraction services were determined to be of nominal value. The gain is deferred and will be recognised as the silver is delivered.

(a) The Company has recognized closure and reclamation liabilities relating to the San Albino Project, the Eagle Mountain Project and to the Moss Mine and has determined that no significant closure and reclamation liabilities exist in connection with the activities on its other properties. The Company has calculated the present value of the closure and reclamation provision as at June 30, 2025, using the undiscounted estimate of cash outflows associated with reclamation activities as $22,030,111 (December 31, 2024: $4,984,343), with $3,949,921 (December 31, 2024: $3,533,274) associated to the San Albino Project, with $1,951,069 (December 31, 2024: $1,451,069) associated to the Eagle Mountain Project and with $16,129,121 associated to the Moss Mine. The provision was determined using discount rates ranging between 3.72% - 5.00% (December 31, 2024: 4.25% - 5.00%) and an inflation rate ranging between 2.35% and 2.52% (December 31, 2024: ranging between 2.46% and 2.50%).
(b) Extinguishment of La Trinidad Mine ARO
On February 15, 2024, the Company entered into an agreement with GR Silver Mines Ltd. ("GR Silver") to settle all liabilities and responsibilities, including but not limited to the reclamation and rehabilitation obligations, of the Company, related to the sale of the Company's Mexican operations to GR Silver in March 2021 ("Settlement and Release Agreement").
Pursuant to the terms of the Settlement and Release Agreement, the Company made a cash payment of $500,000 to GR Silver and issued 296,710 common shares of the Company for a total payment of $960,000. A loss of $94,077 on the disposition of the liability was recognized in the statement of income and comprehensive income for the three months ended March 31, 2024.

20. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND LIQUIDITY RISK
Financial Instruments measured at fair value are classified into one of three levels using a fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used in making the measurements. The fair value hierarchy has the following levels:
Level 1 - quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2 - inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices); and
Level 3 - inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
The Company's financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable and the Term Loans and derivative liabilities. The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments or capacity of prompt liquidation. The Revised Wexford Loan is carried at amortized cost.
The Company's derivative asset and liability is measured using level 3 inputs.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, there were no transfers between level 1, level 2 and level 3 classified assets and liabilities.
Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of potential loss to the Company if the counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations.
The Company is exposed to credit risk with respect to its cash and cash equivalents and receivables. The Company's maximum exposure to credit risk is the amount disclosed in the consolidated statements of financial position.
Credit risk associated with cash and cash equivalents is minimized by placing the majority of these instruments with major financial institutions with strong investment-grade ratings as determined by a primary ratings agency.
Credit risk associated with trade receivables is managed by dealing with reputable international metals trading companies. The Company assesses and monitors risk by performing an aging analysis of its trade receivables.
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk represents the risk that the Company will be unable to meet its obligations associated with its financial liabilities as they fall due. The Company manages liquidity risk by preparing an annual budget for approval by the Board of Directors and preparing cash flow and liquidity forecasts on a regular basis. The Company's objective when managing liquidity risk is to ensure that it has sufficient liquidity available to meet its liabilities when due. The Company uses cash to settle its financial obligations. The ability to do this relies on the Company collecting its trade receivables in a timely manner and maintaining sufficient cash on hand through debt financing.
Based on the Company's forecasted cash flows and the current working capital, the Company estimates that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet its obligations and operating requirements for at least the next twelve months.

Market risk
Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in market factors. Market risk comprises three types of risk: price risk, interest rate risk and currency risk.
Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair values and future cash flows of the Company will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates.
The Company is exposed to interest rate risk to the extent that the cash maintained at financial institutions is subject to a floating rate of interest. The interest rate risk on cash is considered insignificant due to the low interest rates in the current economic environment and short-term nature of its holdings and as such the Company does not take any actions to manage interest rate risk. The interest rate on the Term Loan is fixed at 10% per annum.
Currency risk
Currency risk is the risk that the fair values or future cash flows of the Company's financial instruments will fluctuate because of changes in foreign currency exchange rates.
The Company's currency risk primarily arises from financial instruments denominated in US dollars that are held by Mako and Goldsource, as their functional currency is the Canadian dollar and that are held by Stronghold, as their functional currency is the Guyanese dollar. Conversely for the Company's subsidiaries whose functional currency is the US dollar, currency risk primarily arises from financial instruments denominated in Nicaraguan córdoba that are held at the subsidiary company level. As at June 30, 2025, a 5% change in the exchange rate between the Canadian dollar and the U.S. dollar would result in a net impact of approximately $57,000 and a 5% change in the exchange rate between the Guyanese dollar and the U.S. dollar would result in a net impact of approximately $15,000. Effective January 1, 2024, the exchange rate between the Nicaraguan córdoba and the U.S. dollar has been fixed by the Central Bank of Nicaragua. The Company does not consider the currency risk to be material to the future operations of the Company and, as such, does not have a hedging program or any other programs to manage currency risk.
21. EVENTS AFTER THE REPORTING PERIOD
(a) On July 2, 2025, the Company acquired the Debt owed by Elevation to Maverix, a subsidiary of Triple Flag Precious Metals Corp. This acquisition was completed through an assignment and assumption agreement, under which the Company replaced Maverix as the principal secured creditor in Elevation's proceedings under the Companies' Creditors Arrangement Act ("CCAA") before the Supreme Court of British Columbia.
The Debt includes obligations under multiple instruments: promissory notes, a loan agreement, a streaming agreement, and related guarantees, deeds, and security agreements. All associated rights and obligations have now been transferred to and assumed by the Company.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 All tabular amounts are in thousands of United States dollars, unless otherwise stated (Unaudited) |
As a result, the Company is now the primary secured creditor in Elevation's CCAA proceedings. The Court-appointed Monitor will oversee any distributions to the Company in respect of the Debt. These distributions are expected to be significantly less than the total value of the Debt, which the Company acquired for cash consideration of $1,800,000.
Additionally, if the Company prevails in its litigation with the two remaining Royalty Holders regarding the Royalty Agreements, the contingent liability related to the royalty status determination will no longer be payable to Elevation's creditors. Instead, the funds will revert back to the Company.
