FIRST QUARTER FINANCIAL RESULTS
Wheaton Precious Metals Announces Record Revenue, Adjusted Net Earnings
and Operating Cash Flow for the First Quarter of 2025
“Wheaton delivered a strong start to 2025, with our core assets exceeding production expectations and driving record quarterly revenue, adjusted net earnings, and operating cash flow. In times of economic uncertainty, gold is viewed as a reliable store of value, and these results demonstrate why we believe Wheaton offers one of the best low-risk opportunities for investors seeking exposure to precious metals,” said Randy Smallwood, President and CEO of Wheaton Precious Metals. “Looking ahead, 2025 is shaping up to be a catalyst-rich year, with four development projects scheduled to come online over the course of the year. Notably, Artemis Gold announced commercial production at the Blackwater Mine on May 2, an exciting milestone at an asset which is expected to contribute meaningfully to Wheaton’s portfolio going forward. With the solid foundation of our currently producing asset base, coupled with our industry leading growth profile, we believe we are uniquely positioned to continue pursuing accretive growth and delivering long-term value creation to all of our stakeholders.”

Financial Review
Revenues
Revenue in the first quarter of 2025 was $470 million (68% gold, 30% silver, 1% palladium and 1% cobalt), with the $174 million increase relative to the prior period quarter being primarily due to a 36% increase in the average realized gold equivalent³ price; and a 16% increase in the number of GEOs³ sold.
Cash Costs and Margin
Average cash costs¹ in the first quarter of 2025 were $446 per GEO³ as compared to $433 in the first quarter of 2024. This resulted in a cash operating margin¹ of $2,400 per GEO³ sold, an increase of 45% as compared with the first quarter of 2024, a result of the higher realized price per ounce. Notably, year-over-year margin growth exceeded the appreciation in gold prices over the same period, underscoring the effectiveness of our business model in leveraging rising commodity prices while maintaining strong cash operating margins.
Cash Flow from Operations
Operating cash flow in the first quarter of 2025 amounted to $361 million, with the $141 million increase from the comparable period of the prior year, due primarily to the higher gross margin.
Produced But Not Yet Delivered
As at March 31, 2025, approximately 136,100 GEOs were produced but not yet delivered (“PBND”) representing approximately three months of payable production. Total PBND ounces decreased quarter over quarter as strong production levels in the fourth quarter of 2024, resulted in an increase to sales realized in the first quarter of 2025, due to the inherent timing delay between production and sales. The Company expects PBND levels to stay at the higher end of our forecasted range of two to three months until the end of 2025, in part due to the ramp up of new mines, forecast to commence operations in the second half of the year.
Balance Sheet (at March 31, 2025)
| ● | Approximately $1,086 million of cash on hand |
|---|---|
| ● | During the first quarter of 2025, the Company made total upfront cash payments of $95 million relative to the<br>mineral stream interests consisting of: |
| --- | --- |
| o | $40 million relative to the Mineral Park PMPA; |
| --- | --- |
| o | $30 million relative to the Blackwater PMPA; and |
| --- | --- |
| o | $25 million relative to the Fenix PMPA. |
| --- | --- |
| ● | Subsequent to the quarter, the Company made additional upfront cash payments of $303 million relative to the<br>mineral stream interests consisting of: |

| o | $144 million relative to the Salobo III expansion; |
| --- | --- |
| o | $156 million relative to the Koné PMPA; and |
| --- | --- |
| o | $3 million relative to the Cangrejos PMPA. |
| --- | --- |
| ● | With the existing cash on hand coupled with the fully undrawn $2 billion revolving credit facility, the Company<br>believes it is well positioned to fund all outstanding commitments and known contingencies as well as providing flexibility to acquire additional accretive mineral stream interests. **** Given the strength of Wheaton’s balance sheet and<br>forecasted cash flows, the Company has elected to not renew its at-the-market equity program. |
| --- | --- |
Global Minimum Tax
For the three months ended March 31, 2025, an amount of $45 million current tax expense associated with Global Minimum Tax (“GMT”) was recorded, with GMT being payable 15 months after year-end (18 months after year-end for the year-ended December 31, 2024).
- 4 -
As the Global Minimum Tax Act (“GMTA”) was not enacted into law until Q2-2024, no GMT expense was reflected in Q1-2024 results. ****
Chief Financial Officer Transition
On January 9, 2025, Wheaton announced that Gary Brown will be stepping down from his role as Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”). As part of the previously announced planned leadership succession, Vincent Lau was appointed CFO effective March 31, 2025.
FirstQuarter Operating Asset Highlights
Salobo: In the first quarter of 2025, Salobo produced 71,400 ounces of attributable gold, an increase of approximately 16% relative to the first quarter of 2024, primarily due to higher throughput and grades, partially offset by lower recoveries.
On March 4, 2025, Vale informed the Company that it had achieved a sustained throughput capacity of over 35 Mtpa over a 90-day period, indicating completion of the second phase of the Salobo III expansion project. The Company advanced the remaining balance of the expansion payment to Vale in the amount of $144 million on April 4, 2025.
Antamina: In the first quarter of 2025, Antamina produced 1.1 million ounces of attributable silver, an increase of approximately 35% relative to the first quarter of 2024 primarily due to higher grades and throughput, partially offset by lower recoveries. On April 22, 2025, it was reported that operations were temporarily halted after an incident which triggered a full safety shutdown. Operations have since re-commenced.
Pe ñ asquito : In the first quarter of 2025, Peñasquito produced 1.8 million ounces of attributable silver, a decrease of approximately 34% relative to the first quarter of 2024, primarily the result of lower grades as mining activities have transitioned back into the Peñasco pit which contains lower silver grades relative to the Chile Colorado pit.
Constancia: In the first quarter of 2025, Constancia produced 0.6 million ounces of attributable silver and 4,900 ounces of attributable gold, a decrease of approximately 13% and 65%, respectively, relative to the first quarter of 2024. The decrease was primarily the result of lower grades as more material was mined from Constancia and reclaimed from the stockpile compared with the prior year. On February 19, 2025, Hudbay Minerals Inc. (“Hudbay”) announced that gold production in 2025 is expected to be lower than 2024 levels as additional high grade gold benches were mined in late 2024, ahead of schedule, resulting in gold production exceeding 2024 guidance levels. The Pampacancha deposit is now expected to be depleted in early December 2025 as opposed to October 2025, as the mine plan has smoothed Pampacancha production throughout the year. Total mill ore feed from Pampacancha is expected to be approximately 25% in 2025, lower than the typical one-third in prior years as Pampacancha approaches depletion.
During Q1 2025 relative to Q4 2024, a greater percentage of gold production came from the lower grade Constancia pit as opposed to the higher grade Pampacancha pit, resulting in significantly lower production levels in Q1 2025 as compared to Q4 2024.
Sudbury: In the first quarter of 2025, Vale’s Sudbury mines produced 4,900 ounces of attributable gold, a decrease of approximately 13% relative to the first quarter of 2024, due to lower grades.
- 5 -
San Dimas: In the first quarter of 2025, San Dimas produced 8,400 ounces of attributable gold, an increase of approximately 12% relative to the first quarter of 2024, primarily due to higher throughput, partially offset by lower grades.
In accordance with the San Dimas PMPA, effective April 30, 2025, the fixed gold to silver exchange ratio has been revised from 70:1 to 90:1. (see footnote 4 on page 14 of this press release for more information).
Stillwater: **** In the first quarter of 2025, the Stillwater mines produced 1,300 ounces of attributable gold and 2,700 ounces of attributable palladium, a decrease of approximately 49% for gold and 40% for palladium relative to the first quarter of 2024, primarily due to lower throughput as Stillwater West operations were put into care and maintenance in September 2024.
Voisey’s Bay: In the first quarter of 2025, the Voisey’s Bay mine produced 540,000 pounds of attributable cobalt, an increase of approximately 125% relative to the first quarter of 2024, as the transitional period between the depletion of the Ovoid open-pit and ramp-up to full production of the Voisey’s Bay underground continues. On April 15, 2025, Vale reported the consistent ramp-up of Voisey’s Bay’s underground operations. The full ramp-up is expected by the second half of 2026.
Other Gold: In the first quarter of 2025, total Other Gold attributable production was 1,800 ounces, an increase of approximately 185% relative to the first quarter of 2024 **** due to the initial reported production from Blackwater.
Other Silver: In the first quarter of 2025, total Other Silver attributable production was 1.3 million ounces, a decrease of approximately 4% relative to the first quarter of 2024, as the initial reported production from Blackwater was offset by lower production at Neves-Corvo.
Zinkgruvan and Neves-Corvo: On April 16, 2025, Lundin Mining Corporation (“Lundin Mining”) announced that it has completed the sale of its Neves-Corvo and Zinkgruvan mines to Boliden AB.
Blackwater: On January 22, 2025, Artemis announced that commissioning of the grinding circuit at the Blackwater mine has advanced and milling of first ore commenced, with the first pour of gold and silver being announced on January 29, 2025. Subsequent to the quarter, on May 2, 2025, Artemis announced that it had achieved commercial production at the Blackwater mine. Artemis reports that mining has delivered in excess of 90% of its planned tonnage, and that mined tonnes and grades are reconciling favourably to the resource model. Artemis notes that the proposed phase 2 expansion is anticipated to increase Blackwater’s average annual production to over 500,000 GEOs per year, positioning the mine as a key long-term asset in a favourable jurisdiction for Wheaton.
Los Filos: On April 1, 2025, Equinox reported it has indefinitely suspended operations at Los Filos following the expiry of its land access agreement with the community of Carrizalillo on March 31, 2025.
Detailed mine-by-mine production and sales figures can be found in the Appendix to this press release and in Wheaton’s consolidated MD&A in the ‘Results of Operations and Operational Review’ section.

Corporate Development
Amendment to Blackwater PMPA : On March 7, 2025, the Company amended its PMPA (the “Blackwater Silver PMPA”) with Artemis Gold Inc. (“Artemis”) in respect of silver production from the Blackwater Project located in British Columbia in Canada (the “Blackwater Project”). Under the Blackwater Silver PMPA, Wheaton will acquire an amount of silver equal to 50% of the payable silver until 17.8 million ounces have been delivered and 33% of payable silver thereafter for the life of the mine.
As a result of the amendment, the amount of payable silver will be based on a multiple ranging from 5.07 to 5.17 of the number of ounces of gold produced, rather than being based on a fixed silver recovery factor. The ratio is currently 5.17. Once 17.8 million ounces of silver have been delivered, the determination of payable silver will revert to being based on a fixed silver recovery factor, consistent with the previous terms of the Blackwater Silver PMPA. As a result of the changed payable silver profile which is expected to deliver silver ounces to the Company sooner relative to the original profile, on March 10, 2025, the Company paid Artemis $30 million in connection with this amendment.

Non-GAAP Measures
Wheaton has included, throughout this document, certain non-GAAP performance measures, including (i) adjusted net earnings and adjusted net earnings per share; (ii) operating cash flow per share (basic and diluted); (iii) average cash costs of gold, silver and palladium on a per ounce basis and cobalt on a per pound basis; and (iv) cash operating margin.
| i. | Adjusted net earnings and adjusted net earnings per share are calculated by removing the effects of non-cash impairment charges (reversals) (if any), non-cash fair value (gains) losses and other one-time (income) expenses as well as<br>the reversal of non-cash income tax expense (recovery) which is offset by income tax expense (recovery) recognized in the Statements of Shareholders’ Equity and OCI, respectively. The Company believes<br>that, in addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards, management and certain investors use this information to evaluate the Company’s performance. |
|---|
The following table provides a reconciliation of adjusted net earnings and adjusted net earnings per share (basic and diluted).
| Three Months Ended<br>March 31 | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| (in thousands, except for per share amounts) | 2025 | 2024 | ||

| Other | (185) | (173) | ||
| Adjusted net earnings | $ | 250,825 | $ | 163,589 |
| Divided by: | ||||
| Basic weighted average number of shares outstanding | 453,692 | 453,094 | ||
| Diluted weighted average number of shares<br>outstanding | 454,428 | 453,666 | ||

| Adjusted earnings per share - basic | $ | 0.553 | $ | 0.361 |
| Adjusted earnings per share - diluted | $ | 0.552 | $ | 0.361 |
- 20 -
| ii. | Operating cash flow per share (basic and diluted) is calculated by dividing cash generated by operating activities by<br>the weighted average number of shares outstanding (basic and diluted). The Company presents operating cash flow per share as management and certain investors use this information to evaluate the Company’s performance in comparison to other<br>companies in the precious metal mining industry who present results on a similar basis. |
|---|
The following table provides a reconciliation of operating cash flow per share (basic and diluted).
| Three Months Ended<br>March 31 | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| (in thousands, except for per share amounts) | 2025 | 2024 | ||
| Cash generated by operating<br>activities | $ | 360,793 | $ | 219,380 |
| Divided by: | ||||

| Operating cash flow per share - basic | $ | 0.795 | $ | 0.484 |
| Operating cash flow per share - diluted | $ | 0.794 | $ | 0.484 |
| iii. | Average cash cost of gold, silver and palladium on a per ounce basis and cobalt on a per pound basis is calculated by<br>dividing the total cost of sales, less depletion and cost of sales related to delay ounces, by the ounces or pounds sold. In the precious metal mining industry, this is a common performance measure but does not have any standardized meaning<br>prescribed by IFRS Accounting Standards. In addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards, management and certain investors use this information to evaluate the Company’s performance and ability to<br>generate cash flow. | |||

WHEATON PRECIOUS METALS 2025 1ST QUARTER REPORT - MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS [2]
Overview
Wheaton Precious Metals Corp. is a precious metal streaming company which generates its revenue primarily from the sale of precious metals (gold, silver and palladium) and cobalt. The Company is listed on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) and the London Stock Exchange (“LSE”) and trades under the symbol WPM.
As of March 31, 2025, the Company has entered into 40 long-term agreements¹ (32 of which are precious metal purchase agreements, or “PMPAs”, three of which are early deposit PMPAs, and five of which are royalty agreements), with 33 different mining companies, related to precious metals and cobalt relating to 18 mining assets which are currently operating, 24 of which are at various stages of development and 4 which have been placed into care and maintenance or have been closed, located in 18 countries. Pursuant to the PMPAs, Wheaton acquires metal production from the counterparties for an initial upfront payment plus an additional cash payment for each ounce or pound delivered which is fixed by contract, generally at or below the prevailing market price. Attributable metal production as referred to in this MD&A is the metal production to which Wheaton is entitled pursuant to the various PMPAs. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the per ounce price paid by the Company for the metals acquired under the agreements averaged $445 for gold, $5.17 for silver, $172 for palladium and $2.46 per pound for cobalt. The primary drivers of the Company’s financial results are the volume of metal production at the various mining assets to which the PMPAs relate and the price realized by Wheaton upon the sale of the metals received. Throughout this MD&A, the production and sales volume of gold, silver and palladium are reported in ounces, while cobalt is reported in pounds.

WHEATON PRECIOUS METALS 2025 1ST QUARTER REPORT - MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS [5]
Outlook^1^
Wheaton’s estimated attributable production in 2025 is forecast to be 350,000 to 390,000 ounces of gold, 20.5 to 22.5 million ounces of silver, and 12,500 to 13,500 GEOs of other metals, resulting in annual production of approximately 600,000 to 670,000 GEOs^2^, unchanged from previous guidance.
Annual production is forecast to increase by approximately 40% to 870,000 GEOs^2^ by 2029, with average annual production forecast to grow to over 950,000 GEOs^2^ in years 2030 to 2034, also unchanged from previous guidance.
Liquidity
From a liquidity perspective, the $1,086 million of cash and cash equivalents as at March 31, 2025 combined with the liquidity provided by the available credit under the $2 billion revolving term loan (“Revolving Facility”) and ongoing operating cash flows positions the Company well to fund all outstanding commitments and known contingencies as well as providing flexibility to acquire additional accretive mineral stream interests.
| ^1^ | Statements made in this section contain forward-looking information with respect to forecast production, funding<br>outstanding commitments and continuing to acquire accretive mineral stream interests and readers are cautioned that actual outcomes may vary. Please see “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” for material risks, assumptions<br>and important disclosure associated with this information. |
|---|---|
| ^2^ | Ounces produced represent the quantity of silver, gold, palladium, platinum and cobalt contained in concentrate or<br>doré prior to smelting or refining deductions. Gold equivalent forecast production for 2025 and the longer-term outlook are based on the following updated commodity price assumptions: $2,600 per ounce gold, $30 per ounce silver, $950 per<br>ounce palladium, $950 per ounce of platinum and $13.50 per pound cobalt. |

| 3) | All figures in thousands except gold and palladium ounces and per ounce amounts. The total upfront consideration paid to<br>date excludes closing costs and capitalized interest, where applicable. Please refer to the section entitled “Other Contractual Obligations and Contingencies” on page 28 of this MD&A for details of when the remaining upfront<br>consideration is forecasted to be paid. Certain contracts, including Santo Domingo and El Domo, contain delay ounce provisions whereby should construction of the mine not be completed by an agreed to date, the mine operator must compensate the<br>Company for the delay until certain conditions are satisfied by delivering additional ounces. The value of these ounces on the date first due, net of amounts owed to the mine operator, is treated as a reduction to the upfront consideration paid.<br>Sale of the resulting ounces received is treated as revenue, with the associated cost of sales being equal to the fair value of the ounces on the date received. |

| 9) | Once the Company has received 285,000 ounces of gold under the Santo Domingo PMPA, the Company’s attributable gold<br>production will be reduced to 67%. The units sold under Santo Domingo relate to ounces received due to the delay ounce provision (see footnote 3, above). |
| --- | --- |
| 10) | On October 21, 2024, the Company amended the Fenix PMPA. Under the original agreement, the Company was to acquire an<br>amount of gold equal to 6% of the gold production until 90,000 ounces have been delivered, 4% of the gold production until the delivery of a further 140,000 ounces and 3.5% gold production thereafter for the life of mine. Under the revised<br>agreement, the Company is entitled to purchase an additional 16% of payable gold production (22% in total) (subject to adjustment if there are delays in deliveries relative to an agreed schedule). Once Rio2 delivers the incremental 95,000 ounces (as<br>adjusted), the stream reverts to the percentages and thresholds under the original Fenix PMPA (as described). Rio2 has a one-time option to terminate the requirement to deliver the incremental gold production<br>from the end of 2027 until the end of 2029 by delivering 95,000 ounces (as adjusted) less previously delivered gold ounces, excluding those gold ounces which would have been delivered under the original Fenix PMPA. |

Significant amendments and acquisitions (if any) of mineral stream interests during Q1 2025 are outlined below. The percentage of payable production and other key PMPA terms for all mineral stream interests are described in the Contractual Obligations and Contingencies section of this MD&A starting on page 26 of the MD&A.
Amendments to Mineral Stream Interests
Amendment to Blackwater PMPA
On March 7, 2025, the Company amended its PMPA (the “Blackwater Silver PMPA”) with Artemis Gold Inc. (“Artemis”) in respect of silver production from the Blackwater Project located in British Columbia in Canada (the “Blackwater Project”). Under the Blackwater Silver PMPA, Wheaton will acquire an amount of silver equal to 50% of the payable silver until 17.8 million ounces have been delivered and 33% of payable silver thereafter for the life of the mine.
As a result of the amendment, the amount of payable silver will be based on a multiple ranging from 5.07 to 5.17 of the number of ounces of gold produced, rather than being based on a fixed silver recovery factor. The ratio is currently 5.17. Once 17.8 million ounces of silver have been delivered, the determination of payable silver will revert to being based on a fixed silver recovery factor, consistent with the previous terms of the Blackwater Silver PMPA. As a result of the changed payable silver profile which is expected to deliver silver ounces to the Company sooner
WHEATON PRECIOUS METALS 2025 1ST QUARTER REPORT - MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS [8]
relative to the original profile, on March 10, 2025, the Company paid Artemis $30 million in connection with this amendment.

Constancia
On February 19, 2025, Hudbay Minerals Inc. (“Hudbay”) announced that gold production in 2025 is expected to be lower than 2024 levels as additional high grade gold benches were mined in late 2024, ahead of schedule, resulting in gold production exceeding 2024 guidance levels. The Pampacancha deposit is now expected to be depleted in early December 2025 as opposed to October 2025, as the mine plan has smoothed Pampacancha production throughout the year. Total mill ore feed from Pampacancha is expected to be approximately 25% in 2025, lower than the typical one-third in prior years as Pampacancha approaches depletion.
During Q1 2025 relative to Q4 2024, a greater percentage of gold production came from the lower grade Constancia pit as opposed to the higher grade Pampacancha pit, resulting in significantly lower production levels in Q1 2025 as compared to Q4 2024.
San Dimas
On April 9, 2025, First Majestic Silver Corp., (“First Majestic”) reported that the replacement of the diesel generators used for on-site back-up power at San Dimas with Liquefied Natural Gas (“LNG”) units is near completion, with four 1 megawatt LNG generators on site that will commence operating in Q2 2025. First Majestic states this will generate substantial cost-savings and will result in a reduction in carbon emissions when back-up power is required.
In accordance with the terms of the San Dimas PMPA, effective April 30, 2025 the fixed gold to silver exchange ratio has been revised from 70:1 to 90:1. Please see footnote 6 on page 8 of this MD&A for more information.

Long-Term Equity Investments
The Company will, from time to time, invest in securities of companies for strategic purposes including, but not limited to, exploration and mining companies. The Company held the following investments as at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024:
| March 31 | December 31 | |

| (in thousands) | 2025 | 2024 |
| Common shares held | ||
| Warrants held | ||
| Total long-term equity investments | 128,877 | 98,975 |
All values are in US Dollars.
The Company’s long-term investments in common shares (“LTI’s”) are held for long-term strategic purposes and not for trading purposes. As such, the Company has elected to reflect any fair value adjustments, net of tax, as a component of other comprehensive income (“OCI”). The cumulative gain or loss will not be reclassified to net earnings on disposal of these long-term investments but is reclassified to retained earnings.
While long-term investments in warrants are also held for long-term strategic purposes, they meet the definition of a derivative and therefore are classified as financial assets with fair value adjustments being recorded as a component of net earnings under the classification Other Income (Expense). Warrants that do not have a quoted market price are valued using a Black-Scholes option pricing model.
By holding these long-term investments, the Company is inherently exposed to various risk factors including currency risk, market price risk and liquidity risk.

GEO Production
For the three months ended March 31, 2025, attributable GEO production was 151,100 ounces, with the 7,000 ounce decrease from the comparable period in 2024 being primarily attributable to the following factors:
| ● | 10,300 ounce or 34% decrease from Peñasquito (889,000 silver ounces), primarily the result of lower grades as mining<br>activities have transitioned back into the Peñasco pit which contains lower silver grades relative to the Chile Colorado pit; |
|---|---|
| ● | 10,000 ounce or 47% decrease from Constancia (comprised of 9,000 gold ounces and 85,000 silver ounces), primarily due to<br>lower grades as more material was mined from Constancia and reclaimed from the stockpile compared with the prior year; and |
| --- | --- |
| ● | 2,000 ounce or 46% decrease from Stillwater (comprised of 1,300 gold ounces and 1,800 palladium ounces), primarily due to<br>lower throughput as Stillwater West operations were placed into care and maintenance in September 2024; partially offset by |
| --- | --- |
| ● | 9,800 ounce or 16% increase from Salobo primarily the result of higher throughput and grades, partially offset by lower<br>recoveries. From a throughput perspective, the three 12 mtpa lines operated at approximately 95% of capacity during Q1-2025, as compared to approximately 82% during<br>Q1-2024; |
| --- | --- |
| ● | 3,200 ounce or 35% increase from Antamina (281,000 silver ounces), primarily due to higher grades and throughput, partially<br>offset by lower recoveries; and |
| --- | --- |
| ● | 1,600 ounce or 125% increase from Voisey’s Bay (300,000 cobalt pounds) as the transitional period between the depletion<br>of the Ovoid open-pit and ramp-up to full production of the Voisey’s Bay underground continues. |

As the Global Minimum Tax Act (“GMTA”) was not enacted into law until Q2-2024, no GMT expense was reflected in the Q1-2024 results.
To date, the government of the Cayman Islands has indicated that they do not intend to enact Pillar Two Legislation.
Liquidity and Capital Resources^1^
As at March 31, 2025, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $1,086 million (December 31, 2024 - $818 million) and no debt outstanding under its Revolving Facility (December 31, 2024 - $NIL).
In the opinion of management, the $1,086 million of cash and cash equivalents as at March 31, 2025, combined with the liquidity provided by the available credit under the $2 billion Revolving Facility and ongoing operating cash flows positions the Company well to fund all outstanding commitments, as detailed in the Contractual Obligations and Contingencies section on pages 26 through 28 of this MD&A, as well as providing flexibility to acquire additional accretive mineral stream interests.

| --- | --- | |||||||||
| k. | Kurmuk – reduced to 4.8% once the Company has received 220,000 ounces of gold. During any period in which debt<br>exceeding $150 million ranks ahead of the gold stream, the stream percentage increases to 7.15% and decreases to 5.25% once the drop down threshold is reached. | |||||||||
| --- | --- | |||||||||
| l. | Cotabambas – reduced to 16.67% once the Company has received 90 million silver equivalent ounces.<br> | |||||||||
| --- | --- | |||||||||
| 6) | On October 21, 2024, the Company amended the Fenix PMPA. Under the original agreement, the Company was to acquire an<br>amount of gold equal to 6% of the gold production until 90,000 ounces have been delivered, 4% of the gold production until the delivery of a further 140,000 ounces and 3.5% gold production thereafter for the life of mine. Under the revised<br>agreement, the Company is entitled to purchase an additional 16% of payable gold production (22% in total) (subject to adjustment if there are delays in deliveries relative to an agreed schedule). Once Rio2 delivers the incremental 95,000 ounces (as<br>adjusted), the stream reverts to the percentages and thresholds under the original Fenix PMPA (as described). Rio2 has a one-time option to terminate the requirement to deliver the incremental gold production<br>from the end of 2027 until the end of 2029 by delivering 95,000 ounces (as adjusted) less previously delivered gold ounces, excluding those gold ounces which would have been delivered under the original Fenix PMPA. | |||||||||

Salobo
The Salobo mine historically had a mill throughput capacity of 24 Mtpa and is currently ramping up to full capacity of 36 Mtpa, expected in the first half of 2025. If actual throughput is expanded above 35 Mtpa by January 1, 2031, Wheaton will be required to make additional payments to Vale ranging from $52 million if throughput is expanded beyond 35 Mtpa by January 1, 2031, to up to $144 million if throughput is expanded beyond 35 Mtpa by January 1, 2026. On March 4, 2025, Vale informed the Company that it had achieved a sustained throughput capacity of over 35 Mtpa over a 90-day period, indicating completion of the second phase of the Salobo III expansion project. The Company advanced the remaining balance of the expansion payment to Vale in the amount of $144 million on April 4, 2025.
In addition, Wheaton will be required to make annual payments of between $5.1 million to $8.5 million for a 10-year period following payment of the expansion payments if the Salobo mine implements a high-grade mine plan, with payments to be made for each year the high-grade plan is achieved.

The Company has entered into a loan agreement to provide a secured debt facility of up to $25 million to Origin Mining Company, LLC, the Mineral Park owner and affiliate of Waterton Copper, to help support the mine construction if necessary, once the full upfront consideration under the stream has been paid.
Kudz Ze Kayah
Under the terms of the Kudz Ze Kayah PMPA (“KZK”), an additional $5 million contingency payment is due to Orion if the KZK project achieves certain milestones.
Koné
Under the terms of the Koné PMPA, the Company is committed to pay upfront consideration of $625 million in four equal installment payments during construction, subject to certain customary conditions. The first installment of $156 million was paid on April 17, 2025. The Company has also provided Montage Gold Corp., with a secured debt facility of up to $75 million to be allocated to project costs, including cost overruns, prior to completion of construction and once the full upfront consideration under the Koné PMPA has been paid.
Kurmuk
Under the terms of the Kumuk PMPA, the Company is committed to pay additional upfront consideration of $131 million in three equal installment payments during construction, subject to customary conditions.
Cotabambas
Under the terms of the Cotabambas Early Deposit Agreement, the Company is committed to pay Panoro Minerals Ltd., additional upfront cash payments of $126 million. Following the delivery of a bankable definitive feasibility study, environmental study and impact assessment, and other related documents (collectively, the “Cotabambas Feasibility Documentation”), and receipt of permits and construction commencing, the Company may then advance the remaining deposit or elect to terminate the Cotabambas Early Deposit Agreement. If the Company elects to terminate, the Company will be entitled to a return of the portion of the amounts advanced less $2 million payable upon certain triggering events occurring.
Toroparu
Under the terms of the Toroparu Early Deposit Agreement, the Company is committed to pay a subsidiary of Aris Mining an additional $138 million, payable on an installment basis to partially fund construction of the mine. Aris Mining is to deliver certain feasibility documentation. Prior to the delivery of this feasibility documentation, Wheaton may elect to (i) not proceed with the agreement or (ii) not pay the balance of the upfront consideration and reduce the gold stream percentage from 10% to 0.909% and the silver stream percentage from 50% to nil. If option (i) is chosen, Wheaton will be entitled to a return of the amounts advanced less $2 million. If Wheaton elects option (ii), Aris Mining may elect to terminate the agreement and Wheaton will be entitled to a return of the amount of the deposit already advanced less $2 million.
Kutcho
Under the terms of the Kutcho Early Deposit Agreement, the Company is committed to pay Kutcho additional upfront cash payments of $58 million, which will be advanced on an installment basis to partially fund construction of the mine once certain conditions have been satisfied.
Tax Contingencies
Due to the size, complexity and nature of the Company’s operations, various legal and tax matters are outstanding from time to time, including audits and disputes.
Under the terms of the settlement with the CRA of the transfer pricing dispute relating to the 2005 to 2010 taxation years (the “CRA Settlement”), income earned outside of Canada by the Company’s foreign subsidiaries will not be subject to tax in Canada under transfer pricing rules. The CRA Settlement principles apply to all taxation years after 2010 subject to there being no material change in facts or change in law or jurisprudence. The CRA is not restricted under the terms of the CRA Settlement from issuing reassessments on some basis other than transfer pricing which could result in some or all of the income of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries being subject to tax in Canada.
It is not known or determinable by the Company when any ongoing audits by CRA of international and domestic transactions will be completed, or whether reassessments will be issued, or the basis, quantum or timing of any such potential reassessments, and it is therefore not practicable for the Company to estimate the financial effect, if any, of any ongoing audits.
From time to time there may also be proposed legislative changes to law or outstanding legal actions that may have an impact on the current or prior periods, the outcome, applicability and impact of which is also not known or determinable by the Company.
WHEATON PRECIOUS METALS 2025 1ST QUARTER REPORT - MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS [30]
General
By their nature, contingencies will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The assessment of contingencies inherently involves the exercise of significant judgment and estimates of the outcome of future events. If the Company is unable to resolve any of these matters favorably, there may be a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial performance, cash flows or results of operations. In the event that the Company’s estimate of the future resolution of any of the foregoing matters changes, the Company will recognize the effects of the change in its consolidated financial statements in the appropriate period relative to when such change occurs.
Share Capital
During the three months ended March 31, 2025, a total of 62,041 share purchase options were exercised at a weighted average exercise price of Cdn$55.90 per option, resulting in total cash proceeds to the Company in the amount of $2 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company received proceeds of $4 million from the exercise of 158,148 share purchase options at a weighted average exercise price of Cdn$33.20 per option.
During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company released 69,129 RSUs, as compared to 68,277 RSUs during the comparable period of the previous year.
The Company has implemented a dividend reinvestment plan (“DRIP”) whereby shareholders can elect to have dividends reinvested directly into additional Wheaton common shares.
As of May 8, 2025, there were 453,835,604 outstanding common shares, 1,150,363 share purchase options and 315,376 restricted share units.
At the Market Equity Program
The Company established an at-the-market equity program (the “ATM Program”) to allow the Company to issue up to $300 million worth of common shares from treasury (“Common Shares”) to the public from time to time at the Company’s discretion and subject to regulatory requirements.
Wheaton intended that the net proceeds from the ATM Program, if any, would be available as one potential source of funding for stream acquisitions and/or other general corporate purposes including the repayment of indebtedness. Given the strength of Wheaton’s balance sheet and forecasted cash flows, the Company has elected to not renew the ATM Program, under which no shares have been issued as of March 31, 2025.
Financial Instruments
The Company owns equity interests in several companies as long-term investments (see page 12 of this MD&A) and therefore is inherently exposed to various risk factors including currency risk, market price risk and liquidity risk.
In order to mitigate the effect of short-term volatility in gold, silver and palladium prices, the Company will occasionally enter into forward contracts in relation to gold, silver and palladium deliveries that it is highly confident will occur within a given quarter. The Company does not hedge its long-term exposure to commodity prices. The Company has not used derivative financial instruments to manage the risks associated with its operations and therefore, in the normal course of business, it is inherently exposed to currency, interest rate and commodity price fluctuations.
New Accounting Standards Effective in 2025
Amendment to IAS 21 - Lack of Exchangeability
Effective January 1, 2025, the Company adopted the Amendment to IAS 21 - Lack of Exchangeability. The amendments contain guidance to specify when a currency is exchangeable and how to determine the exchange rate when it is not, as well as associated disclosure requirements when it is concluded a currency is not exchangeable. The adoption of this amendment had no impact on the condensed interim consolidated financial statements.

Non-GAAP Measures
Wheaton has included, throughout this document, certain non-GAAP performance measures, including (i) adjusted net earnings and adjusted net earnings per share; (ii) operating cash flow per share (basic and diluted); (iii) average cash costs of gold, silver and palladium on a per ounce basis and cobalt on a per pound basis; and (iv) cash operating margin.
These non-GAAP measures do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS Accounting Standards, and other companies may calculate these measures differently. The presentation of these non-GAAP measures 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 Accounting Standards.
| i. | Adjusted net earnings and adjusted net earnings per share are calculated by removing the effects of non-cash impairment charges (reversals) (if any), non-cash fair value (gains) losses and other one-time (income) expenses as well as<br>the reversal of non-cash income tax expense (recovery) which is offset by income tax expense (recovery) recognized in the Statements of Shareholders’ Equity and OCI, respectively. The Company believes<br>that, in addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards, management and certain investors use this information to evaluate the Company’s performance. |

| iii. | Average cash cost of gold, silver and palladium on a per ounce basis and cobalt on a per pound basis is calculated by<br>dividing the total cost of sales, less depletion and cost of sales related to delay ounces, by the ounces or pounds sold. In the precious metal mining industry, this is a common performance measure but does not have any standardized meaning<br>prescribed by IFRS Accounting Standards. In addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards, management and certain investors use this information to evaluate the Company’s performance and ability to<br>generate cash flow. |

Subsequent Events
Declaration of Dividend
Under the Company’s dividend policy, the quarterly dividend is fixed at $0.165 per common share for 2025. The declaration, timing, amount and payment of future dividends remain at the discretion of the Board of Directors.
On May 8, 2025, the Board of Directors declared a dividend in the amount of $0.165 per common share, with this dividend being payable to shareholders of record on May 28, 2025 and is expected to be distributed on or about June 10, 2025. The Company has implemented a dividend reinvestment plan (“DRIP”) whereby shareholders can elect to have dividends reinvested directly into additional Wheaton common shares based on the Average Market Price, as defined in the DRIP.
Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures, as those terms are defined in National Instrument 52-109 – Certification of Disclosure inIssuers’ Annual and Interim Filings, for the Company.
Together, the internal control frameworks provide internal control over financial reporting and disclosure. Due to its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting and disclosure may not prevent or detect all misstatements. Further, the effectiveness of internal control is subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may change.
There were no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the three months ended March 31, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the internal controls over financial reporting.
Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, management will continue to monitor and evaluate the design and effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures, and may make modifications from time to time as considered necessary.
Limitation of Controls and Procedures
The Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, believe that any disclosure controls and procedures or internal control over financial reporting, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. 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 error or mistake. 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 controls. The design of any system of controls 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.

WHEATON PRECIOUS METALS 2025 1ST QUARTER REPORT - MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS [42]
The Stillwater mine has been in operation since 1986 and the East Boulder mine since 2002. Individual grades for platinum, palladium, gold and rhodium are estimated using ratios applied to the combined platinum plus palladium grades based upon average historic production results provided to the Company as of the date of this document. As such, the Attributable Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserve palladium and gold grades for the Stillwater mines have been estimated using the following ratios:
| a. | Stillwater mine: Pd = (Pt + Pd) / (1/3.51 + 1) and Au = (Pd + Pt) x 0.0238 |
|---|---|
| b. | East Boulder mine: Pd = (Pt + Pd) / (1/3.60 + 1) and Au = (Pd + Pt) x 0.0323 |
| --- | --- |
| 14. | Under the terms of the San Dimas PMPA, the Company is entitled to an amount equal to 25% of the payable gold production<br>plus an additional amount of gold equal to 25% of the payable silver production converted to gold at a fixed gold to silver exchange ratio of 70:1 from the San Dimas mine.

Although Wheaton has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results, level of activity, performance or achievements to differ materially from those contained in forward-looking statements, there may be other factors that cause results, level of activity, performance or achievements not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. There can be no assurance that forward-looking statements will prove to be accurate and even if events or results described in the forward-looking statements are realized or substantially realized, there can be no assurance that they will have the expected consequences to, or effects on, Wheaton. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements and are cautioned that actual outcomes may vary. The forward-looking statements included herein are for the purpose of providing investors with information to assist them in understanding Wheaton’s expected financial and operational performance and may not be appropriate for other purposes.

Cautionary Language Regarding Reserves And Resources
For further information on Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources and on Wheaton more generally, readers should refer to Wheaton’s Annual Information Form for the year ended December 31, 2024 and other continuous disclosure documents filed by Wheaton since January 1, 2025, available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca. Wheaton’s Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources are subject to the qualifications and notes set forth therein. Mineral Resources which are not Mineral Reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability.
Cautionary Note to United StatesInvestors Concerning Estimates of Measured, Indicated and Inferred Resources:
The information contained herein has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the securities laws in effect in Canada, which differ from the requirements of United States securities laws. The terms “mineral reserve”, “proven mineral reserve” and “probable mineral reserve” are Canadian mining terms defined in accordance with Canadian National Instrument 43-101 – Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”) and the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (the “CIM”) – CIM Definition Standards on Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves, adopted by the CIM Council, as amended (the “CIM Definition Standards”). NI 43-101 differs significantly from the disclosure requirements of the SEC generally applicable to U.S. companies. For example, there is no assurance any mineral reserves or mineral resources that the Company may report as “proven mineral reserves”, “probable mineral reserves”, “measured mineral resources”, “indicated mineral resources” and “inferred mineral resources” under NI 43-101 would be the same had the Company prepared the reserve or resource estimates under the standards of the SEC generally applicable to U.S. companies. Accordingly, information contained herein that describes Wheaton’s mineral deposits may not be comparable to similar information made public by U.S. companies subject to reporting and disclosure requirements under the United States federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder. United States investors are urged to consider closely the disclosure in Wheaton’s Form 40-F, a copy of which may be obtained from Wheaton or from http://www.sec.gov/edgar.html.

WHEATON PRECIOUS METALS 2025 1ST QUARTER REPORT - FINANCIAL STATEMENTS [6]
Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements
Three Months Ended March 31, 2025 (US Dollars)
| 1. | Description of Business and Nature of Operations |
|---|
Wheaton Precious Metals Corp. is a precious metal streaming company which generates its revenue primarily from the sale of precious metals (gold, silver and palladium) and cobalt. Wheaton Precious Metals Corp. (“Wheaton” or the “Company”), which is the ultimate parent company of its consolidated group, is incorporated and domiciled in Canada, and its principal place of business is at Suite 3500
- 1021 West Hastings Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6E 0C3. The Company trades on the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”), the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) and the London Stock Exchange (“LSE”) under the symbol WPM.
As of March 31, 2025, the Company has entered into 40 long-term agreements¹ (32 of which are precious metal purchase agreements, or “PMPAs”, three of which are early deposit PMPAs, and five of which are royalty agreements), with 33 different mining companies, related to precious metals and cobalt relating to 18 mining assets which are currently operating, 24 of which are at various stages of development and 4 which have been placed into care and maintenance or have been closed, located in 18 countries. Pursuant to the PMPAs, Wheaton acquires metal production from the counterparties for an initial upfront payment plus an additional cash payment for each ounce or pound delivered which is either a fixed price or fixed percentage of the market price by contract, generally at or below the prevailing market price.
The condensed interim consolidated financial statements of the Company for the three months ended March 31, 2025 were authorized for issue as of May 8, 2025 in accordance with a resolution of the Board of Directors.
| 2. | Basis of Presentation and Statement of Compliance |
|---|
These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for certain financial instruments which have been measured at fair value as at the relevant balance sheet date. The consolidated financial statements are presented in United States (“US”) dollars, which is the Company’s functional currency, and all values are rounded to the nearest thousand US dollars (US$ 000’s) unless otherwise noted. References to “Cdn$” refer to Canadian dollars.
These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting (“IAS 34”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). The accounting policies applied in these unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements are based on IFRS Accounting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the IASB and have been prepared using the same accounting policies and methods of application as disclosed in Note 3 to the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024 and were consistently applied to all the periods presented unless otherwise stated below. These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and note disclosures required by IFRS for annual consolidated financial statements and therefore should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024.
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with IAS 34 requires the use of certain accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise judgment in applying the Company’s accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgment or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements, are disclosed in Note 4.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments (including normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position at March 31, 2025 and the results of operations and cash flows for all periods presented have been made. The interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.
| 3. | Material Accounting Policy Information |
|---|
3.1. New Accounting Standards Effective in 2025
Amendment to IAS 21 - Lack of Exchangeability
Effective January 1, 2025, the Company adopted the Amendment to IAS 21 - Lack of Exchangeability. The amendments contain guidance to specify when a currency is exchangeable and how to determine the exchange rate when it is not, as well as associated disclosure requirements when it is concluded a currency is not exchangeable. The adoption of this amendment had no impact on the condensed interim consolidated financial statements.
| ^1^ | Minto has been removed from the mine count due to Minto Metals Corp., being placed in receivership. |

Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements
Three Months Ended March 31, 2025 (US Dollars)
| 4. | Key Sources of Estimation Uncertainty and Critical Accounting Judgments |
|---|
The preparation of the Company’s condensed interim consolidated financial statements requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates and assumptions are continuously evaluated and are based on management’s experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. However, actual outcomes can differ from these estimates.
Information about significant areas of estimation uncertainty and judgments made by management in preparing the condensed interim consolidated financial statements are unchanged from those disclosed in Note 4 to the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024.
| 5. | Financial Instruments |
|---|---|
| 5.1. | Capital Risk Management |
| --- | --- |
The Company manages its capital to ensure that it will be able to continue as a going concern and satisfy its outstanding funding commitments while maintaining a high degree of financial flexibility to consummate new streaming investments.
The capital structure of the Company consists of debt (Note 16) and equity attributable to common shareholders, comprising of issued capital (Note 17), accumulated reserves (Note 18) and retained earnings.
The Company is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements with the exception of complying with the minimum tangible net worth covenant and the interest rate coverage ratio under its sustainability-linked revolving credit facility (Note 16).
The Company is in compliance with the debt covenants at March 31, 2025, as described in Note 16.1.

| 5.2. | Categories of Financial Assets and Liabilities |
|---|
Trade receivables from sales of cobalt and other receivables are non-interest bearing and are stated at amortized cost, which approximate fair values due to the short terms to maturity. Where necessary, the other receivables are reported net of allowances for uncollectable amounts. The refundable deposit on the 777 PMPA, which requires a single principal payment at maturity, is carried at amortized cost, which approximates its fair value. All other financial assets are reported at fair value. Fair value adjustments on financial assets are reflected as a component of net earnings with the exception of fair value adjustments associated with the Company’s long-term investments in common shares held. As these long-term investments are held for strategic purposes and not for trading, the Company has made a one time, irrevocable election to reflect the fair value adjustments associated with these investments as a component of OCI. Financial liabilities are reported at amortized cost using the effective interest method, which approximate fair values due to the short terms to maturity. The following table summarizes the classification of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities:

| --- | --- | ||||
| 5.3. | Credit Risk | ||||
| --- | --- |
Credit risk is the risk that the counterparty to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the Company by failing to discharge its obligations. To mitigate exposure to credit risk on financial assets, the Company has established policies to limit the concentration of credit risk, to ensure counterparties demonstrate minimum acceptable credit worthiness and to ensure liquidity of available funds.
The Company closely monitors its financial assets and does not have any significant concentration of credit risk. The Company invests surplus cash in short-term, high credit quality, money market instruments. Finally, counterparties used to sell precious metals are all large, international organizations with strong credit ratings and the balance of trade receivables on these sales in the ordinary course of business is not significant. Therefore, credit risk associated with trade receivables at March 31, 2025 is considered to be negligible.

| --- | --- |
The Company has in place a rigorous planning and budgeting process to help determine the funds required to support the Company’s normal operating requirements on an ongoing basis and its expansionary plans. The Company ensures that there are sufficient committed loan facilities to meet its short-term business requirements, taking into account its anticipated cash flows from operations and its holdings of cash and cash equivalents. As at March 31, 2025, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $1,086 million (December 31, 2024 - $818 million) and working capital of $1,001 million (December 31, 2024 - $799 million).
The Company holds equity investments of several companies (Note 15) with a combined market value at March 31, 2025 of $129 million (December 31, 2024 - $99 million). The daily exchange traded volume of these shares, including the shares underlying the warrants, may not be sufficient for the Company to liquidate its position in a short period of time without potentially affecting the market value of the shares. These shares and warrants are held for strategic purposes and are considered long-term investments and therefore, as part of the Company’s planning, budgeting and liquidity analysis process, these investments are not relied upon to provide operational liquidity.
The following table summarizes the timing associated with the Company’s remaining contractual payments relating to its financial liabilities and performance share units liability. The table reflects the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities based on the earliest date on which the Company can be required to pay (assuming that the Company is in compliance with all of its obligations). The table includes both interest and principal cash flows, where applicable.

risk. During the three months ended March 31, 2025 the weighted average interest rate earned on its cash deposits in interest bearing accounts was 4.2%, as compared to 5.2% in the comparable period of the prior year.
During the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, a fluctuation in interest rates of 100 basis points (1 percent) would not have impacted the amount of interest expensed by the Company.
During the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, a fluctuation in interest rates of 100 basis points (1 percent) would have impacted the amount of interest earned by approximately $2 million and $1 million, respectively.
| 5.7. | Other Price Risk |
|---|
The Company is exposed to equity price risk as a result of holding long-term investments in common shares of various companies. The Company does not actively trade these investments.
If equity prices had been 10% higher or lower at the respective balance sheet date, other comprehensive income for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 would have increased/decreased by approximately $13 million and $25 million, respectively, as a result of changes in the fair value of common shares held.
| 5.8. | Fair Value Estimation |
|---|
The Company classifies its fair value measurements within a fair value hierarchy, which reflects the significance of the inputs used in making the measurements as defined in IFRS 13 – Fair Value Measurements (“IFRS 13”).
Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
Level 2 - Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity.
The following table sets forth the Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value by level within the fair value hierarchy. As required by IFRS 13, assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

5.8.1. Valuation Techniques for Level 2 Assets
Accounts Receivable Arising from Sales of Metal Concentrates
The Company’s trade receivables from provisional concentrate sales are valued based on forward price of silver to the expected date of final settlement (Note 6). As such, these receivables and/or liabilities are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
Long-Term Investments in Warrants Held
The fair value of the Company’s long-term investments in warrants held that are not traded in an active market are determined using a Black-Scholes model based on assumptions including risk-free interest rate, expected dividend yield, expected volatility and expected warrant life which are supported by observable current market conditions and as such are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The use of reasonably possible alternative assumptions would not significantly affect the Company’s results.

Gold, Silver and Palladium Credit Sales
Under certain PMPAs, precious metal is acquired from the mine operator in the form of precious metal credits, which is then sold through bullion banks. Revenue from precious metal credit sales is recognized at the time of the sale of such credits, which is also the date that control of the precious metal is transferred to the customer.
Concentrate Sales
Under certain PMPAs, silver is acquired from the mine operator in concentrate form, which is then sold under the terms of the concentrate sales contracts to third-party smelters or traders. Where the Company acquires precious metal in concentrate form, final precious metal prices are set on a specified future quotational period (the “Quotational Period”) pursuant to the concentrate sales contracts with third-party smelters, typically one to three months after the shipment date, based on market prices for precious metal. The contracts, in general, provide for a provisional payment based upon provisional assays and quoted gold and silver prices. Final settlement is based upon the average applicable price for the Quotational Period applied to the actual number of precious metal ounces recovered calculated using confirmed smelter weights and settlement assays. Revenues and the associated cost of sales are recorded on a gross basis under these contracts at the time title passes to the customer, which is also the date that control of the precious metal is transferred to the customer. The Company has concluded that the adjustments relating to the final assay results for the quantity of concentrate sold are not significant and do not constrain the recognition of revenue.

Cobalt Sales
The Company has entered into an offtake agreement under which all cobalt is sold to a third-party offtaker. Revenue from the cobalt sale is recognized at the time of the delivery, which is also the date that control of the cobalt is transferred to the offtaker.

The value allocated to reserves is classified as depletable upon a mining operation achieving commercial production and is depleted on a unit-of-production basis over the estimated recoverable proven and probable reserves at the mine. The value associated with resources and exploration potential is allocated at acquisition and is classified as non-depletable until such time as it is transferred to the depletable category, generally as a result of the conversion of resources or exploration potential into reserves.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2025 (US Dollars)
Significant acquisitions, amendments and disposals of mineral stream interests (if any) in the three months ended March 31, 2025 are outlined below. The percentage of payable production and other key PMPA terms for all mineral stream interests are described in Note 25.
Amendment to the Blackwater PMPA
On March 7, 2025, the Company amended its PMPA (the “Blackwater Silver PMPA”) with Artemis Gold Inc. (“Artemis”) in respect of silver production from the Blackwater Project located in British Columbia in Canada (the “Blackwater Project”). Under the Blackwater Silver PMPA, Wheaton will acquire an amount of silver equal to 50% of the payable silver until 17.8 million ounces have been delivered and 33% of payable silver thereafter for the life of the mine.
As a result of the amendment, the amount of payable silver will be based on a multiple ranging from 5.07 to 5.17 of the number of ounces of gold produced, rather than being based on a fixed silver recovery factor. The ratio is currently 5.17. Once 17.8 million ounces of silver have been delivered, the determination of payable silver will revert to being based on a fixed silver recovery factor, consistent with the previous terms of the Blackwater Silver PMPA. On March 10, 2025, the Company paid Artemis $30 million in connection with this amendment.
| 13. | Early Deposit Mineral Stream Interests |
|---|
Early deposit mineral stream interests represent agreements relative to early stage development projects whereby Wheaton can choose not to proceed with the agreement once certain documentation has been received including, but not limited to, feasibility studies, environmental studies and impact assessment studies (please see Note 25 for more information). Once Wheaton has elected to proceed with the agreement, the carrying value of the stream will be transferred to Mineral Stream Interests.
The following table summarizes the early deposit mineral stream interests owned by the Company as of March 31, 2025

The Company’s long-term investments in common shares (“LTI’s”) are held for long-term strategic purposes and not for trading purposes. As such, the Company has elected to reflect any fair value adjustments, net of tax, as a component of other comprehensive income (“OCI”). The cumulative gain or loss will not be reclassified to net earnings on disposal of these long-term investments but is reclassified to retained earnings.
By holding these long-term investments, the Company is inherently exposed to various risk factors including currency risk, market price risk and liquidity risk.

|---|---|
| 16.1. | Sustainability-Linked Revolving Credit Facility |
| --- | --- |
The Company’s undrawn $2 billion revolving term loan (“Revolving Facility”) matures on June 25, 2029.
The Company’s Revolving Facility has financial covenants which require the Company to maintain: (i) a net debt to tangible net worth ratio of less than or equal to 0.75:1; and (ii) an interest coverage ratio of greater than or equal to 3.00:1. Only cash interest expenses are included for the purposes of calculating the interest coverage ratio. The Company is in compliance with these debt covenants as at March 31, 2025 and 2024.
At the Company’s option, amounts drawn under the Revolving Facility incur interest based on the Company’s leverage ratio at either (i) the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus 1.10% to 2.15%; or (ii) the Bank of Nova Scotia’s Base Rate plus 0.00% to 1.05%. Under both options, the interest rate shall not be less than 0%. In connection with the extension, the interest rate paid on drawn amounts will be adjusted by up to +/- 0.05% based upon the Company’s performance in three sustainability-related areas including climate change, diversity and overall

| 18.1. | Share Purchase Options | |||||||
| --- | --- |
The Company has established an equity settled share purchase option plan whereby the Company’s Board of Directors may, from time to time, grant options to employees or consultants. The maximum term of any share purchase option may be ten years, but generally options are granted with a term to expiry of five to seven years. The exercise price of an option is not less than the closing price on the TSX on the last trading day preceding the grant date. The vesting period of the options is determined at the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors at the time the options are granted, but generally vest over a period of two or three years.
Each share purchase option converts into one common share of Wheaton on exercise. No amounts are paid or payable by the recipient on receipt of the option. The options do not carry rights to dividends or voting rights. Options may be exercised at any time from the date of vesting to the date of their expiry, subject to certain black-out periods.
The Company expenses the fair value of share purchase options that are expected to vest on a straight-line basis over the vesting period using the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value for each option at the date of grant. The Black-Scholes model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options that have no vesting restrictions. The model requires the use of subjective assumptions, including expected share price volatility. Historical data has been considered in setting the assumptions. Expected volatility is determined by considering the trailing 36-month historic average share price volatility. The weighted average fair value of share purchase options granted and principal assumptions used in applying the Black-Scholes option pricing model are as follows:

| 18.2. | Restricted Share Units (“RSUs”) |
|---|
The Company has established an RSU plan whereby RSUs will be issued to eligible employees or directors as determined by the Company’s Board of Directors or the Company’s Compensation Committee. RSUs give the holder the right to receive a specified number of common shares at the specified vesting date. RSUs generally vest over a period of two to three years. Compensation expense related to RSUs is recognized over the vesting period based upon the fair value of the Company’s common shares on the grant date and the awards that are expected to vest. The fair value is calculated with reference to the closing price of the Company’s common shares on the TSX on the business day prior to the date of grant.
RSU holders receive a cash payment based on the dividends paid on the Company’s common shares in the event that the holder of a vested RSU has elected to defer the release of the RSU to a future date. This cash payment is reflected as a component of net earnings under the classification Share Based Compensation.

| 18.3. | Long-Term Investment Revaluation Reserve |
|---|
The Company’s long-term investments in common shares (Note 15) are held for long-term strategic purposes and not for trading purposes. The Company has chosen to designate these long-term investments in common shares as financial assets with fair value adjustments being recorded as a component of OCI as it believes that this provides a more meaningful presentation for long-term strategic investments, rather than reflecting changes in fair value as a component of net earnings. As some of these long-term investments are denominated in Canadian dollars, changes in their fair value is affected by both the change in share price in addition to changes in the Cdn$/US$ exchange rate.
Where the fair value of a long-term investment in common shares held exceeds its tax cost, the Company recognizes a deferred income tax liability. To the extent that the value of the long-term investment subsequently declines, the deferred income tax liability is reduced. However, where the fair value of the long-term investment decreases below the tax cost, the Company does not recognize a deferred income tax asset on the unrealized capital loss unless it is probable that the Company will generate future capital gains that will offset the loss.

| 19. | Share Based Compensation |
|---|
The Company’s share based compensation consists of share purchase options (Note 18.1), restricted share units (Note 18.2) and performance share units (Note 19.1). The accrued value of share purchase options and restricted share units are reflected as reserves in the shareholder’s equity section of the Company’s balance sheet while the accrued value associated with performance share units is reflected as an accrued liability.
| 19.1. | Performance Share Units (“PSUs”) |
|---|
The Company has established a Performance Share Unit Plan (“the PSU plan”) whereby PSUs will be issued to eligible employees as determined by the Company’s Board of Directors or the Company’s Compensation Committee. PSUs issued under the PSU plan entitle the holder to a cash payment at the end of a three year performance period equal to the number of PSUs granted, multiplied by a performance factor and multiplied by the fair market value of a Wheaton common share on the expiry of the performance period. The performance factor can range from 0% to 200% and is determined by comparing the Company’s total shareholder return (“TSR”) to those achieved by various peer companies and the price of gold and silver.
Compensation expense for the PSUs is recorded on a straight-line basis over the three year vesting period. The amount of compensation expense is adjusted at the end of each reporting period to reflect (i) the fair value of common shares; (ii) the number of PSUs anticipated to vest; and (iii) the anticipated performance factor.
A continuity schedule of the Company’s outstanding PSUs (assuming a performance factor of 100% is achieved over the performance period) and the Company’s PSU accrual from January 1, 2024 to March 31, 2025 is presented below:

| 20. | Earnings per Share (“EPS”) and Diluted Earnings per Share (“Diluted EPS”) |
|---|
Diluted earnings per share is calculated using the treasury method which assumes that outstanding share purchase options and warrants, with exercise prices that are lower than the average market price of the Company’s common shares for the relevant period, are exercised and the proceeds are used to purchase shares of the Company at the average market price of the common shares for the relevant period.
Diluted EPS is calculated based on the following weighted average number of shares outstanding:

Pillar II Tax Expense - Global Minimum Tax
On June 20, 2024, Canada’s Global Minimum Tax Act (“GMTA”), received royal assent. The GMTA enacts the OECD Pillar Two model rules (“Pillar Two”) where in scope companies are subject to a 15% global minimum tax (GMT) for fiscal years commencing on or after December 31, 2023. With the enactment of the GMTA on June 20, 2024, the income of the Company’s Cayman Island subsidiaries, who have a statutory tax rate of 0%, are subject to the GMTA. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, an amount of $45 million current tax expense associated with GMT was recorded, with GMT being payable 15 months after year-end (18 months after year-end for the year-ended December 31, 2024).
The Company has applied the mandatory exemption to recognizing and disclosing information about deferred tax assets and liabilities related to Pillar Two taxes.
To date, the government of the Cayman Islands has indicated that they do not intend to enact Pillar Two legislation.

Refundable Deposit – 777PMPA
On August 8, 2012, the Company entered into a PMPA with Hudbay in respect to the 777 mine. Under the terms of the 777 PMPA, should the market value of gold and silver delivered to Wheaton through the initial 40 year term of the contract, net of the per ounce cash payment, be lower than the initial $455 million upfront consideration, the Company is entitled to a refund of the difference (the “Refundable Deposit”) at the conclusion of the 40 year term. On June 22, 2022, Hudbay announced that mining activities at the 777 mine have concluded after the reserves were depleted and closure activities have commenced. The balance of the Refundable Deposit is $78 million.
At December 31, 2022, the Company derecognized the 777 PMPA and recognized a long-term receivable, with interest to be accreted on a quarterly basis until maturity which is August 8, 2052. The Company estimated that a credit facility with similar terms and conditions would have an interest rate of 8%.

Salobo
The Salobo mine historically had a mill throughput capacity of 24 Mtpa and is currently ramping up to full capacity of 36 Mtpa, expected in the first half of 2025. If actual throughput is expanded above 35 Mtpa by January 1, 2031, Wheaton will be required to make additional payments to Vale ranging from $52 million if throughput is expanded beyond 35 Mtpa by January 1, 2031, to up to $144 million if throughput is expanded beyond 35 Mtpa by January 1, 2026. On March 4, 2025, Vale informed the Company that it had achieved a sustained throughput capacity of over 35 Mtpa over a 90-day period, indicating completion of the second phase of the Salobo III expansion project. The Company advanced the remaining balance of the expansion payment to Vale in the amount of $144 million on April 4, 2025.
In addition, Wheaton will be required to make annual payments of between $5.1 million to $8.5 million for a 10-year period following payment of the expansion payments if the Salobo mine implements a high-grade mine plan, with payments to be made for each year the high-grade plan is achieved.

Kutcho
Under the terms of the Kutcho Early Deposit Agreement, the Company is committed to pay Kutcho additional upfront cash payments of $58 million, which will be advanced on an installment basis to partially fund construction of the mine once certain conditions have been satisfied.
Tax Contingencies
Due to the size, complexity and nature of the Company’s operations, various legal and tax matters are outstanding from time to time, including audits and disputes.
Under the terms of the settlement with the CRA of the transfer pricing dispute relating to the 2005 to 2010 taxation years (the “CRA Settlement”), income earned outside of Canada by the Company’s foreign subsidiaries will not be subject to tax in Canada under transfer pricing rules. The CRA Settlement principles apply to all taxation years after 2010 subject to there being no material change in facts or change in law or jurisprudence. The CRA is not restricted under the terms of the CRA Settlement from issuing reassessments on some basis other than transfer pricing which could result in some or all of the income of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries being subject to tax in Canada.
It is not known or determinable by the Company when any ongoing audits by CRA of international and domestic transactions will be completed, or whether reassessments will be issued, or the basis, quantum or timing of any such potential reassessments, and it is therefore not practicable for the Company to estimate the financial effect, if any, of any ongoing audits.
From time to time there may also be proposed legislative changes to law or outstanding legal actions that may have an impact on the current or prior periods, the outcome, applicability and impact of which is also not known or determinable by the Company.
General
By their nature, contingencies will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The assessment of contingencies inherently involves the exercise of significant judgment and estimates of the outcome of future events. If the Company is unable to resolve any of these matters favorably, there may be a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial performance, cash flows or results of operations. In the event that the Company’s estimate of the future resolution of any of the foregoing matters changes, the Company will recognize the effects of the change in its consolidated financial statements in the appropriate period relative to when such change occurs.
