Financial Review

Revenues

Revenue in the second quarter of 2024 was $299 million (61% gold, 37% silver, 1% palladium and 1% cobalt), with the $34 million increase relative to the prior period quarter being primarily due to an 18% increase in the average realized gold equivalent³ price; partially offset by a 4% decrease in the number of GEOs³ sold.

Revenue was $596 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024, representing a $116 million increase from the comparable period of the previous year due primarily to an 11% increase in the average realized gold equivalent³ price, resulting from relative changes in the GEOs³ produced but not yet delivered; and a 12% increase in the number of GEOs³ sold.

Cash Costs and Margin

Average cash costs¹ in the second quarter of 2024 were $436 per GEO³ as compared to $452 in the second quarter of 2023. This resulted in a cash operating margin¹ of $1,976 per GEO³ sold, an increase of 24% as compared with the second quarter of 2023, a result of the higher realized price per ounce coupled with the lower average cash costs.

Average cash costs¹ for the six months ended June 30, 2024 were $433 per GEO³ as compared to $463 in the comparable period of the previous year. This resulted in a cash operating margin¹ of $1,797 per GEO³ sold, a 16% increase from the comparable period of the previous year.

Cash Flow from Operations

Operating cash flow in the second quarter of 2024 amounted to $234 million, with the $32 million increase due primarily to the higher gross margin.

Operating cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2024 amounted to $454 million, with the $116 million increase from the comparable period of the previous year being due primarily to the higher gross margin.

Balance Sheet (at June 30, 2024)

   

Approximately $540 million of cash on hand

   

The Company extended its existing undrawn $2 billion revolving term loan (the “Revolving Facility”) with its maturity date now June 25, 2029.

   

During the second quarter of 2024, the Company made total upfront cash payments of $45 million relative to the mineral stream and royalty interests consisting of:

   o

$10 million relative to the Cangrejos PMPA;

   o

$25 million relative to the Mineral Park PMPA; and

   o

$10 million relative to the Mt Todd Royalty.

   

During the second quarter of 2024, the Company disposed of its investment in Hecla Mining Company for gross proceeds of $177 million.

   

With the existing cash on hand coupled with the fully undrawn $2 billion revolving credit facility, the Company 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.

Global Minimum Tax

The Company is within the scope of global minimum tax (“GMT”) under the OECD Pillar Two model rules (“Pillar Two”), under which large multinational entities will be subject to a 15% GMT. On June 20, 2024, Canada’s Global Minimum Tax Act (“GMTA”), received royal assent. The GMTA enacts the OECD Pillar Two model rules where in scope companies will be


 

- 4 -

 

subject to a 15% 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 subsidiaries which operate in jurisdictions with a statutory tax rate of 0% is impacted by the GMTA and an amount of $51 million current tax expense associated with GMT was recorded for the period from January 1, 2024 to June 30, 2024. GMT accrued to December 31, 2024, is payable on or before June 30, 2026 (18 months following year-end).

Second Quarter Operating Asset Highlights

Salobo: In the second quarter of 2024, Salobo produced 63,200 ounces of attributable gold, an increase of approximately 15% relative to the second quarter of 2023, driven by higher throughput, with production from the third concentrator line commencing at the end of 2022. On April 24, 2024, Vale S.A. (“Vale”) reported the continued ramp-up at Salobo III, which reached 90% average throughput in the first quarter, as well as improved year over year operational performance at Salobo I and II. On July 25, 2024, Vale also reported that the Salobo III processing plant operations resumed in July, after being halted for 31 days due to a fire on a conveyor belt. Vale confirmed that 2024 copper production guidance of 320-355 kt has been maintained.

Peñasquito: In the second quarter of 2024, Peñasquito produced 2.3 million ounces of attributable silver, an increase of approximately 30% relative to the second quarter of 2023 primarily due to higher throughput, partially offset by lower grades.

Constancia: In the second quarter of 2024, Constancia produced 0.5 million ounces of attributable silver and 6,100 ounces of attributable gold, an increase of approximately 7% for silver production and a decrease of approximately 18% for gold production relative to the second quarter of 2023. The decrease in gold production was primarily the result of lower gold grades due largely to the planned stripping activity in the Pampacancha pit, which commenced in the second quarter and is expected to continue through the third quarter. As a result of the stripping activity, ore feed was supplemented with stockpiles during the second quarter, as per the original mine plan. Mill ore feed has now reverted to the typical blend of approximately one-third from Pampacancha and two-thirds from Constancia, which is expected to continue throughout 2024. The increase in silver production is primarily due to higher throughput and grades, partially offset by lower recoveries.

Stillwater: In the second quarter of 2024, the Stillwater mines produced 2,100 ounces of attributable gold and 4,300 ounces of attributable palladium, an increase of approximately 4% for gold and 12% for palladium relative to the second quarter of 2023, due primarily to higher throughput and grades.

Voiseys Bay: In the second quarter of 2024, the Voisey’s Bay mine produced 259,000 pounds of attributable cobalt, an increase of approximately 71% relative to the second quarter of 2023, as the transitional period between the depletion of the Ovoid open-pit and ramp-up to full production of the Voisey’s Bay underground mine nears completion. Vale reports that physical completion of the Voisey’s Bay underground mine extension was 96% at the end of the second quarter, and that the main surface assets are completed and in operation. In the underground portion, Reid Brook activities are largely complete, with the powerhouse planned to be fully commissioned and linked to the grid by Q3 2024. The mine development at Eastern Deeps is now concluded, and construction of the bulk material handling system, dewatering and support facilities is ongoing. The full mine assets at Eastern Deeps are expected to be in operation by the end of 2024.


 

- 5 -

 

Other Gold: In the second quarter of 2024, total Other Gold attributable production was 600 ounces, a decrease of approximately 70% relative to the second quarter of 2023, primarily due to the closure of the Minto mine in May 2023.

Other Silver: In the second quarter of 2024, total Other Silver attributable production was 1.4 million ounces, an increase of approximately 5% relative to the second quarter of 2023. The increase from the comparable period of the prior year is primarily due to an 87% increase in production at Zinkgruvan as a result of higher throughput and grades, largely offset by the cessation of attributable ore mined at Aljustrel.

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.

Recent Development Asset Updates

Blackwater Project: On July 30, 2024, Artemis Gold Inc. (“Artemis”) announced that overall construction was approximately 87% complete and that construction of the water management pond, excavation of the cutoff trench, and the earthworks and lining of the central water management pond were completed. Work on the tailings storage facility continues to progress well with increased productivity and material movements through the quarter. Equipment installation was a key focus area as well as installation of structural steel, conveyors, platework, pipework, and electrical infrastructure. Early pre-commissioning activities in the crushing area of the process facility are underway. Artemis also stated that the project remains on schedule for first gold pour in Q4 2024.

On July 22, 2024, Artemis announced that it had responded to a wildfire evacuation order by proactively removing all non-essential staff and contractors as of July 21, 2024. On July 26, 2024, Artemis announced the evacuation order has been lifted and began an expedient, staged return of employees and contractors to site. The mine site was not impacted by any wildfires.

Platreef Project: On July 31, 2024, Ivanhoe Mines Ltd. (“Ivanhoe”) reported that construction of Platreef’s Phase 1 concentrator was completed on schedule subsequent to the quarter. Cold commissioning has started, with water being fed through the concentrator, and construction of Platreef’s Shaft 2 headgear is approximately 60% complete. Work is well underway on the updated feasibility study to accelerate Platreef’s Phase 2 expansion, as well as the preliminary economic assessment of the previously announced Phase 3 expansion. Both studies are expected to be completed in the fourth quarter. A Phase 3 expansion to 10 Mtpa processing capacity is expected to rank Platreef as one of the world’s largest platinum-group metal, nickel, copper and gold producers.

Goose Project: On May 7, 2024, B2Gold Corp. (“B2Gold”) announced the successful completion of the 2024 winter ice road (“WIR”) campaign, delivering all necessary materials to complete the construction of the Goose project. B2Gold reports that while mill construction remains on schedule, development of the open pit and underground is slightly behind schedule due to equipment availability, adverse weather conditions and prioritization of critical path construction activities. As a result, B2Gold reports that first gold pour is now expected in the second quarter of 2025 with ramp up to full production in the third quarter of 2025, one quarter later than previous estimates.


 

- 6 -

 

Marmato Mine: On April 15, 2024, Aris Mining Corporation (“Aris”) provided an update on the Marmato Lower Mine expansion project, including the completion of the access road to the new processing facility area. Earthworks in the plant area will reportedly commence soon, and the contractor for the new portal and decline is fully mobilized and cutting of the portal face has commenced. On May 14, 2024, Aris reported that most of the mechanical equipment has been ordered and the access road has reached the portal level. On July 16, 2024, Aris further reported that the Lower Mine project is on track for first gold pour by the end of 2025, followed by an approximate six-month ramp-up period.

Curipamba Project: On June 17, 2024, Adventus Mining Corporation (“Adventus”) announced that the Ministry of Environment, Water and Energy Transition of the Government of Ecuador has granted Administrative Authorization over Public Hydric Domain for the Curipamba project. This key permit allows the Curipamba project to carry out planned construction activities in accordance with the technical requirements stipulated in the Water Resources Law. With this approval, Adventus noted that the last main step prior to the start of construction is the receipt of the final document outlining the transition from the medium scale exploration to exploitation phase.

On April 26, 2024, Adventus announced that Silvercorp Metals Inc. (“Silvercorp”) has entered into a definitive arrangement agreement with Adventus pursuant to which Silvercorp has agreed to acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Adventus. As reported by Silvercorp, the existing stream with Wheaton, combined with Silvercorp’s existing cash and cash equivalents of approximately $200 million, is more than sufficient to fully fund the Curipamba project through construction. On July 2, 2024, the Ontario Superior Court of Justice granted a final order approving the arrangement. The acquisition closed on July 31, 2024.

On August 6, 2024, Silvercorp announced a key milestone that the Ministry of Energy and Mines of the Government of Ecuador (“MEM”) has issued a Resolution of Change of Phase for the Curipamba project. The Resolution of Change of Phase advances the legal status of the project from the economic evaluation phase to the exploitation phase and allows for the start of construction and subsequent operation of the mine. The Change of Phase for a medium-scale project is equivalent to the Exploitation Agreement for large-scale mines in Ecuador.

Marathon Project: On July 31, 2024, Generation Mining Limited (“Gen Mining”) reported that the federal government has approved amendments to Schedule 2 of the Metal and Diamond Mining Effluent Regulations (“Schedule 2”) which will allow for the construction of specific water management structures and operation of key infrastructure for the Marathon Project. Gen Mining also states that receipt of the few remaining provincial and federal approvals and permits required for construction is expected in the coming months.

On August 7, 2024, Gen Mining announced a key milestone with the receipt of the Fisheries Act Authorization (“FAA”) for the Marathon project. The FAA, issued by Fisheries and Oceans Canada, approves Gen Mining’s plan to avoid, mitigate and offset impacts to fish and fish habitat related to the development of the project. This authorization represents the final federal approval required to commence construction of the tailings storage facility and water management structures. The Marathon project requires three remaining provincial approvals to be issued by the Ministry of the Environment, Conservation and Parks and the Ministry of Natural Resources. These are expected in the coming months. Following which, the Marathon project will have all of the key government permits and approvals required for construction.

Santo Domingo: On July 31, 2024, Capstone Copper Corp. (“Capstone”) published the results of an updated feasibility study for the Santo Domingo project, outlining an optimized mine plan, updated capital and operating cost estimates, and a 19-year mine life supported by higher mineral reserve estimates. The report indicates that total gold production is expected to average 35,000 ounces per year for the first seven years of production, an increase from the 30,000 ounces per year estimate outlined in the 2020 feasibility study, and 22,000 ounces per year for the life of mine, up from 17,000 ounces per year. Capstone has reported that with construction completed at the Mantoverde project, a deposit situated 35 kilometers northeast of the Santo Domingo project, Capstone plans to advance several value enhancement initiatives within the Mantoverde-Santo Domingo district that are not yet included in the 2024 feasibility study. The first of these initiatives is a newly announced two-year, $25 million exploration program at Mantoverde, aimed at supporting the two future processing centers between Mantoverde and Santo Domingo.

Curraghinalt Project: On May 3, 2024, the Planning Appeals Commission & Water Appeals Commission (the “Commission”) in Northern Ireland concluded that the water abstraction and impoundment licenses (“Water Licenses”) relative to the Curraghinalt Project have been rescinded and that license applications would need to be resubmitted and subsequent public inquiry referrals held. The Commission noted that it has suspended arrangements for the

1)

All figures in thousands except gold and palladium ounces produced.

2)

Quantity produced represent the amount of gold, silver, palladium and cobalt contained in concentrate or doré prior to smelting or refining deductions. Production figures and payable rates are based on information provided by the operators of the mining operations to which the mineral stream interests relate or management estimates in those situations where other information is not available. Certain production figures and payable rates may be updated in future periods as additional information is received.

3)

Comprised of the Coleman, Copper Cliff, Garson, Creighton and Totten gold interests.

4)

Under the terms of the San Dimas PMPA, the Company is entitled to an amount equal to 25% of the payable gold production 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. If the average gold to silver price ratio decreases to less than 50:1 or increases to more than 90:1 for a period of 6 months or more, then the “70” shall be revised to “50” or “90”, as the case may be, until such time as the average gold to silver price ratio is between 50:1 to 90:1 for a period of 6 months or more in which event the “70” shall be reinstated. For reference, attributable silver production from prior periods is as follows: Q2 2024 - 285,000 ounces; Q1 2024 - 291,000 ounces; Q4 2023 - 378,000 ounces; Q3 2023 - 387,000 ounces; Q2 2023 - 423,000 ounces; Q1 2023 - 401,000 ounces; Q4 2022 - 348,000 ounces; Q3 2022 - 412,000 ounces.

5)

Comprised of the Stillwater and East Boulder gold and palladium interests.

6)

On May 13, 2023, Minto Metals Corp. announced the suspension of operations at the Minto mine.

7)

There was a temporary suspension of operations at Peñasquito due to a labour strike which ran from June 7, 2023 to October 13, 2023.

8)

On September 12, 2023, it was announced that the production of the zinc and lead concentrates at the Aljustrel mine will be halted from September 24, 2023 until the second quarter of 2025.

9)

On December 14, 2022 the Company terminated the Yauliyacu PMPA in exchange for a cash payment of $132 million.

10)

GEOs, which are provided to assist the reader, are based on the following commodity price assumptions: $2,000 per ounce gold; $23.00 per ounce silver; $1,000 per ounce palladium; and $13.00 per pound cobalt; consistent with those used in estimating the Company’s production guidance for 2024.

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 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 that, in addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with IFRS, 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).

  iii.

Average cash cost of gold, silver and palladium on a per ounce basis and cobalt on a per pound basis is calculated by dividing the total cost of sales, less depletion, 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 prescribed by IFRS. In addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with IFRS, management and certain investors use this information to evaluate the Company’s performance and ability to generate cash flow.

The following table provides a calculation of average cash cost of gold, silver and palladium on a per ounce basis and cobalt on a per pound basis.

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, 2023, which was filed on March 28, 2024 and other continuous disclosure documents filed by Wheaton since January 1, 2024, 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 States Investors 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 Company reports information regarding mineral properties, mineralization and estimates of mineral reserves and mineral resources in accordance with Canadian reporting requirements which are governed by, and utilize definitions required by, 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 Standards”). These definitions differ from the definitions adopted by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) which are applicable to U.S. companies. Accordingly, 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 adopted by the SEC. 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 https://www.sec.gov/edgar.shtml.

WHEATON PRECIOUS METALS 2024 SECOND 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 June 30, 2024, the Company has entered into 38 long-term agreements (30 of which are precious metal purchase agreements, or “PMPAs”, three of which are early deposit PMPAs, and five of which are royalty agreements), with 32 different mining companies, related to precious metals and cobalt relating to 18 mining assets which are currently operating, 23 which are at various stages of development and 4 which have been placed into care and maintenance or have been closed, located in 16 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 June 30, 2024, the per ounce price paid by the Company for the metals acquired under the agreements averaged $441 for gold, $4.95 for silver, $175 for palladium and $2.99 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.

1)

All amounts in thousands except gold and palladium ounces produced and sold, per ounce amounts and per share amounts.

2)

Gold-equivalent ounces (“GEOs”), which are provided to assist the reader, are based on the following commodity price assumptions: $2,000 per ounce gold; $23.00 per ounce silver; $1,000 per ounce palladium; and $13.00 per pound cobalt; consistent with those used in estimating the Company’s production guidance for 2024.

3)

Represents the increase (decrease) in payable ounces produced but not delivered (“PBND”) relative to the various mines that the Company derives precious metal from and, for cobalt, the increase (decrease) of payable pounds PBND and inventory on hand. Payable units PBND will be recognized in future sales as they are delivered to the Company under the terms of their contracts. Payable ounces PBND to Wheaton is expected to average approximately two to three months of annualized production for both gold and palladium and two months for silver but may vary from quarter to quarter due to a number of factors, including mine ramp-up and the timing of shipments. Please see “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” for material risks, assumptions and important disclosure associated with this information.

4)

Refer to discussion on non-IFRS measures beginning on page 40 of this MD&A.

5)

Cash cost per pound of cobalt sold during the second quarter of 2023 was net of a previously recorded inventory write-down of $0.5 million (six months - $1.5 million), resulting in a decrease of $1.81 per pound of cobalt sold (six months - $2.57 per pound sold).

6)

As at June 30, 2024, cumulative dividends of $2,207 million have been declared and paid by the Company.

 

WHEATON PRECIOUS METALS 2024 SECOND QUARTER REPORT - MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS [4]


Highlights

Operations

   

For the three months ended June 30, 2024, relative to the comparable period of the prior year:

 

     

Production amounted to 147,100 gold equivalent ounces (“GEOs”), an increase of 7%, with higher production from Salobo, Zinkgruvan and Peñasquito being offset by lower production from San Dimas and Constancia combined with the cessation of production from Aljustrel and Minto.

 

     

Sales volumes amounted to 124,000 GEO’s, a decrease of 4% relative to the comparable period of the prior year.

 

     

Revenue increased 13% or $34 million to $299 million (61% gold, 37% silver, 1% palladium and 1% cobalt), with the increase being primarily due to an 18% increase in realized commodity prices.

 

     

Gross margin amounted to $186 million (62% of revenue), representing an increase of $34 million.

 

     

Net earnings amounted to $122 million, a decrease of $19 million, with the increased gross margin being offset by a $51 million tax expense attributable to the enactment of the global minimum tax (“GMT”) legislation by the Canadian government during the quarter, with the resulting tax expense including the GMT liability for both the first and second quarter of 2024.

 

     

Adjusted net earnings increased 5% or $7 million to $150 million, with the increase in gross margin more than offsetting the GMT accrued relative to the second quarter of 2024.

 

     

Operating cashflow amounted to $234 million, representing a $32 million increase being the result of the higher gross margin.

 

   

For the six months ended June 30, 2024 relative to the comparable period of the prior year:

 

     

Production amounted to 305,800 GEOs, an increase of 12%, with increased production from Salobo due to the mill throughput expansion and Peñasquito resulting from higher grades being partially offset by the cessation of production from Aljustrel and Minto.

 

     

Revenue increased 24% or $116 million to $596 million (63% gold, 35% silver, 1% palladium and 1% cobalt), with the increase being primarily due to a 12% increase in sales volumes coupled with an 11% increase in realized commodity prices.

 

     

Gross margin amounted to $358 million (60% of revenue), representing an increase of $89 million.

 

     

Net earnings amounted to $286 million, an increase of $34 million with the higher gross margin more than offsetting the cumulative GMT accrual relative to the first six months of 2024.

 

     

Operating cashflow amounted to $454 million, with the $116 million increase being due primarily to the higher gross margin.

 

   

On August 7, 2024, the Board of Directors declared a dividend in the amount of $0.155 per common share.

Other

 

   

On June 20, 2024, Canada’s Global Minimum Tax Act (“GMTA”) received royal assent. The GMTA enacts the OECD Pillar Two model rules where in scope companies will be subject to a 15% GMT for fiscal years commencing on or after December 31, 2023. With the enactment of the GMTA, the income of the Company’s Cayman Island subsidiaries are subject to the GMT and a current tax expense of $51 million associated with GMT was recorded for the period from January 1, 2024 to June 30, 2024.

 

   

During the second quarter of 2024:

 

     

The Company made two quarterly dividend payments totaling $139 million.

 

     

The Company made total upfront cash payments of $45 million relative to the Cangrejos PMPA ($10 million), the Mineral Park PMPA ($25 million) and the Mt Todd royalty ($10 million).

 

     

The Company disposed of its investment in Hecla Mining Company for gross proceeds of $177 million.

 

WHEATON PRECIOUS METALS 2024 SECOND QUARTER REPORT - MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS [5]


Outlook1

Wheaton continues to forecast estimated attributable production in 2024 to be 325,000 to 370,000 ounces of gold, 18.5 to 20.5 million ounces of silver, and 12,000 to 15,000 gold equivalent ounces (“GEOs”) of other metals, resulting in production of approximately 550,000 to 620,000 GEOs2, unchanged from previous guidance.

Annual production is forecast to increase by approximately 40% to over 800,000 GEOs2 by 2028, with average annual production forecast to grow to over 850,000 GEOs2 in years 2029 to 2033, also unchanged from previous guidance.

Liquidity

From a liquidity perspective, the $540 million of cash and cash equivalents as at June 30, 2024 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.

Statements made in this section contain forward-looking information with respect to forecast production, funding 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 and important disclosure associated with this information.

2 

Gold equivalent forecast production for 2024 and the longer-term outlook are based on the following commodity price assumptions: $2,000 per ounce gold, $23 per ounce silver, $1,000 per ounce palladium, $950 per ounce of platinum and $13.00 per pound cobalt. Other metal includes palladium, platinum and cobalt. Not included in Wheaton’s long-term forecast and instead classified as ‘optionality’, includes potential future production from Pascua Lama, Navidad, Toroparu, Cotabambas, Metates, DeLamar and additional expansions at Salobo outside of the Salobo III mine expansion project. Ounces produced represent the quantity of silver, gold, palladium and cobalt contained in concentrate or doré prior to smelting or refining deductions.

Updates on the Operating Mineral Stream Interests

Salobo – Mill Throughput Expansion

On November 21, 2023, Vale S.A. (“Vale”) reported the successful completion of the throughput test for the first phase of the Salobo III project, with the Salobo complex exceeding an average of 32 million tonnes per annum (“Mtpa”) over a 90-day period. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company paid Vale $370 million for the completion of the first phase of the Salobo III expansion project on December 1, 2023. Vale has stated that they expect Salobo III to achieve a sustained throughput capacity of 36 Mtpa in the fourth quarter of 2024. On April 24, 2024, Vale reported the continued ramp-up at Salobo III, which reached 90% average throughput in the first quarter, as well as improved year over year operational performance at Salobo I and II. On July 25, 2024, Vale reported that the Salobo III processing plant operations resumed in July, after being halted for 31 days due to a fire on a conveyor belt. Vale’s 2024 copper production guidance of 320-355kt has been maintained.

Voisey’s Bay – Underground Mine Extension

Vale reports that physical completion of the Voisey’s Bay underground mine extension was 96% at the end of the second quarter, and that the main surface assets are completed and in operation. In the underground portion, Reid Brook activities are largely complete, with the Powerhouse planned to be fully commissioned and linked to the grid by Q3 2024.

WHEATON PRECIOUS METALS 2024 SECOND QUARTER REPORT - MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS [8]


commence soon. On May 14, 2024, Aris reported that most of the mechanical equipment has been ordered and the access road has reached the portal level, which allows the portal contractor access to their work area, and the second phase of the contract for the decline development has been submitted to a third-party review. On July 16, 2024, Aris reported that the Lower Mine project is on track for first gold pour by the end of 2025, followed by an approximate six-month ramp-up period.

Santo Domingo

On July 31, 2024, Capstone Copper Corp. (“Capstone”) published the results of an updated feasibility study for the Santo Domingo project, outlining an optimized mine plan, updated capital and operating cost estimates, and a 19-year mine life supported by higher mineral reserve estimates. As a result, total gold production is expected to average 35,000 ounces per year for the first seven years of production, an increase from the 30,000 ounces per year estimate outlined in the 2020 feasibility study, and 22,000 ounces per year for the life of mine, up from 17,000 ounces per year. With construction completed at the Mantoverde project, a deposit situated 35 kilometers northeast of the Santo Domingo project, Capstone plans to advance several value enhancement initiatives within the Mantoverde-Santo Domingo district that are not yet included in the 2024 feasibility study. The first of these initiatives is a newly announced two-year, $25 million exploration program at Mantoverde, aimed at supporting the two future processing centers between Mantoverde and Santo Domingo.

Fenix

On April 8, 2024, Rio2 Limited (“Rio2”) announced that its Chilean subsidiary has received the formal Environmental Qualification Resolution (“RCA”) for the Fenix gold project. The receipt of the RCA now allows Rio2 to advance permitting activities for the Fenix project. Rio2 has noted that there are four principal Sectorial Permits required before construction can commence at the Project: 1) Mining Methods; 2) Process Plant; 3) Waste Dumps & Stockpiles; and 4) Closure Plan and that work on these permits is well underway.

Blackwater

On July 30, 2024, Artemis announced that overall construction was approximately 87% complete and that construction of the water management pond, excavation of the cutoff trench, and the earthworks and lining of the central water management pond were completed. Work on the tailings storage facility continues to progress well with increased productivity and material movements through the quarter. Equipment installation was a key focus area as well as installation of structural steel, conveyors, platework, pipework, and electrical infrastructure. Early pre-commissioning activities in the crushing area of the process facility is underway. Artemis also stated that the project remains on schedule for first gold pour in Q4 2024.

On July 22, 2024, Artemis announced that it had responded to a wildfire evacuation order issued across a region that includes its Blackwater Mine by proactively removing all non-essential staff and contractors from the mine site as of July 21, 2024. On July 26, 2024, Artemis announced the evacuation order has been lifted and began an expedient, staged return of employees and contractors to site. The mine site was not impacted by any wildfires.

Curipamba

On January 22, 2024, Adventus Mining Corporation (“Adventus”) announced that the Ministry of Environment, Water and Energy Transition of the Government of Ecuador (“MAATE”) has granted the environmental license for the construction and operation of the Curipamba project. On January 30, 2024, Adventus announced that the Ministry of Energy and Mines of Ecuador has issued a permit which grants approval for the design, construction, operation, and maintenance of the tailings storage facility (“TSF”) for the Curipamba project. The start of TSF construction is a key condition precedent for the Company to make additional upfront cash payments under the Curipamba PMPA. On June 17, 2024, Adventus announced that the MAATE has granted Administrative Authorization over Public Hydric Domain for the Curipamba project. This key permit allows the Curipamba project to carry out planned construction activities in accordance with the technical requirements stipulated in the Water Resources Law. With this approval, Adventus noted that the last main step prior to the start of construction is the receipt of the final document outlining the transition from the medium scale exploration to exploitation phase. During the period, an Ecuadorian court rejected a constitutional protective action (the “Constitutional Action”) filed by third parties against MAATE and concluded that the consultative process followed by MAATE in issuing the permits to Adventus’ Ecuadorian subsidiary complied with applicable legal requirements. The Ecuadorian Court ruling is subject to appeal, however no appeal date has been set.

On April 26, 2024, Adventus announced that Silvercorp Metals Inc. (“Silvercorp”) has entered into a definitive arrangement agreement with Adventus pursuant to which Silvercorp has agreed to acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Adventus (the “Arrangement Agreement”). As reported by Silvercorp, the existing stream with Wheaton, combined with Silvercorp’s existing cash and cash equivalents of approximately $200 million, is more than sufficient to fully fund the Curipamba project through construction. On July 2, 2024, the Ontario Superior Court of Justice granted a final order approving the arrangement. The acquisition closed on July 31, 2024.

 

WHEATON PRECIOUS METALS 2024 SECOND QUARTER REPORT - MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS [9]


Under the terms of the Curipamba PMPA, within 30 days of a change of control, Adventus has a one-time option to repurchase 33% of the gold and silver stream for an amount ensuring a minimum internal rate of return to the Company.

On August 6, 2024, Silvercorp announced a key milestone that the Ministry of Energy and Mines of the Government of Ecuador (“MEM”) has issued a Resolution of Change of Phase for the Curipamba project. The Resolution of Change of Phase advances the legal status of the project from the economic evaluation phase to the exploitation phase and allows for the start of construction and subsequent operation of the mine. The Change of Phase for a medium-scale project is equivalent to the Exploitation Agreement for large-scale mines in Ecuador.

Marathon

On June 6, 2024, Generation Mining Limited (“Gen Mining”), reported that Gen Mining is working to complete the permitting process and to obtain the necessary government approvals to commence construction, and it has engaged a construction-focused engineering firm to support design optimizations. Gen Mining is also concurrently evaluating alternative pit sequencing options that further exploit the benefit of the ore body’s proximity to surface.

On July 31, 2024, Gen Mining reported that the federal government has approved amendments to Schedule 2 of the Metal and Diamond Mining Effluent Regulations (“Schedule 2”) which will allow for the construction of specific water management structures and operation of key infrastructure for the Marathon project. Gen Mining also state that receipt of the few remaining provincial and federal approvals and permits required for construction is expected in the coming months.

On August 7, 2024, Gen Mining announced a key milestone with the receipt of the Fisheries Act Authorization (“FAA”) for the Marathon project. The FAA, issued by Fisheries and Oceans Canada, approves Gen Mining’s plan to avoid, mitigate and offset impacts to fish and fish habitat related to the development of the project. This authorization represents the final federal approval required to commence construction of the tailings storage facility and water management structures. The Marathon project requires three remaining provincial approvals to be issued by the Ministry of the Environment, Conservation and Parks and the Ministry of Natural Resources. These are expected in the coming months. Following which, the Marathon project will have all of the key government permits and approvals required for construction.

On May 7, 2024, B2Gold Corp., (“B2Gold”) announced the successful completion of the 2024 winter ice road (“WIR”) campaign, delivering all necessary materials to complete the construction of the Goose project. B2Gold reports that while mill construction remains on schedule, development of the open pit and underground is slightly behind schedule due to equipment availability, adverse weather conditions and prioritization of critical path construction activities. As a result, B2Gold reports that first gold pour is now expected in the second quarter of 2025 with ramp up to full production in the third quarter of 2025, one quarter later than previous estimates.

Cangrejos

On May 21, 2024, Lumina Gold Corp., (“Lumina”) provided an update that the work on the feasibility study for the Cangrejos project is progressing on schedule to be finalized in Q2 2025.

Platreef

On July 31, 2024, Ivanhoe Mines Ltd., (“Ivanhoe”) reported that construction activities of Platreef’s Phase 1 concentrator was completed on schedule subsequent to the quarter. Cold commissioning has started, with water now being fed through the concentrator, and construction of Platreef’s Shaft 2 headgear is approximately 60% complete. Work is well underway on the updated feasibility study to accelerate Platreef’s Phase 2, as well as the preliminary economic assessment of the previously announced Phase 3 expansion. Both studies are expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2024. A Phase 3 expansion to 10 Mtpa processing capacity is expected to rank Platreef as one of the world’s largest platinum-group metal, nickel, copper and gold producers.

Curraghinalt

On May 3, 2024, the Planning Appeals Commission & Water Appeals Commission (“the commission”) in Northern Ireland concluded that the water abstraction and impoundment licenses (“water licenses”) relative to the Curraghinalt Project have been rescinded and that license applications would need to be resubmitted and subsequent public inquiry referrals held. The commission noted that it has suspended arrangements for the current inquiry timetable until it is in receipt of the expected water license applications, at which time it will move to set directions and new dates for the submission of statements of case, rebuttals, and for the opening of the re-scheduled hearing sessions in due course.

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. 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 currently owned by the Company:

3)

The Company paid $3 million for an existing 2.0% net smelter return royalty interests on the first 600,000 ounces of gold mined and a 2.75% net smelter returns royalty interest thereafter. The Brewery Creek Royalty agreement provides, among other things, that Golden Predator Mining Corp., (subsidiary of Victoria Gold) may reduce the 2.75% net smelter royalty interest to 2.125% on payment of the sum of Cdn$2 million to the Company.

4)

Liberty Gold has been granted an option to repurchase 50% of the NSR for $4 million at any point in time up to the earlier of commercial production at Black Pine or January 1, 2030.

5)

The Mt Todd royalty is at a rate of 1% of gross revenue with such rate being subject to increase to a maximum rate of 2%, depending on the timing associated with the achievement of certain operational milestones.

6)

Under the DeLamar royalty, if completion is not achieved by January 1, 2029, the DeLamar Royalty will increase annually by 0.15% of net smelter returns to a maximum of 2.7% of net smelter returns.

To date, no revenue has been recognized and no depletion has been taken with respect to these royalty agreements.

Black Pine

On June 26, 2024, Liberty Gold Corp., (“Liberty Gold”) hosted a formal mine permitting kick-off meeting with key representatives from the US Forest Service (“USFS”), the Bureau of Land Management, and the Idaho Department of Lands, with the meetings primary purpose to prepare for the formal submission of the Mine Plan of Operations (“MPO”) which is expected to be in Q4 of 2024. Liberty Gold states that activities for the second half of 2024 are focused in three key areas: 1) Completion of the pre-feasibility study, 2) Submission of the draft MPO to USFS to commence formally, the National Environmental Policy Act permitting process and, 3) Exploration drilling on priority target areas on recently permitted ground.

DeLamar

On June 5, 2024, Integra Resources Corp., (“Integra”) announced that the Mine Plan of Operations (“MPO”) for the DeLamar and Florida Mountain Project has met the content requirement of the United States Code of Federal Regulations by the U.S. Bureau of Land Management (“BLM”). Integra has been notified that it may proceed with the National Environmental Policy Act (“NEPA”) process. The acceptance of the MPO by BLM is a critical step in permitting for DeLamar. Following the acceptance of the MPO, the BLM will publish the Notice of Intent (“NOI”) which will allow for the commencement of work on the Draft Environmental Impact Statement (“DEIS”). The NOI step of the NEPA permitting process is integral as it begins formal engagement with all cooperating governmental agencies and

stakeholders. On July 8, 2024, the Company advanced the final upfront cash payment of $5 million under the DeLamar royalty agreement.

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 June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023:

 

    June 30      December 31  
(in thousands)   2024      2023  

 Common shares held

  $     86,899      $     246,026  

 Warrants held

    1,172        652  
 Total long-term equity investments   $    88,071      $    246,678  

 

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.

A summary of the fair value of these equity investments and the fair value changes recognized as a component of the Company’s OCI during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 is presented below:

1)

All figures in thousands except gold and palladium ounces produced.

2)

Quantity produced represent the amount of gold, silver, palladium and cobalt contained in concentrate or doré prior to smelting or refining deductions. Production figures and payable rates are based on information provided by the operators of the mining operations to which the mineral stream interests relate or management estimates in those situations where other information is not available. Certain production figures and payable rates may be updated in future periods as additional information is received.

3)

Comprised of the Coleman, Copper Cliff, Garson, Creighton and Totten gold interests.

4)

Under the terms of the San Dimas PMPA, the Company is entitled to an amount equal to 25% of the payable gold production 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. If the average gold to silver price ratio decreases to less than 50:1 or increases to more than 90:1 for a period of 6 months or more, then the “70” shall be revised to “50” or “90”, as the case may be, until such time as the average gold to silver price ratio is between 50:1 to 90:1 for a period of 6 months or more in which event the “70” shall be reinstated. For reference, attributable silver production from prior periods is as follows: Q2 2024 - 285,000 ounces; Q1 2024 - 291,000 ounces; Q4 2023 - 378,000 ounces; Q3 2023 - 387,000 ounces; Q2 2023 - 423,000 ounces; Q1 2023 - 401,000 ounces; Q4 2022 - 348,000 ounces; Q3 2022 - 412,000 ounces.

Refer to discussion on non-IFRS beginning on page 40 of this MD&A. Adjusted net earnings for Q1-2024 has been updated subsequent to the release of the MD&A for the first quarter of 2024 to reflect the GMT accrual relating to Q1-2024 in the amount of $25 million.

4)

Cash cost per pound of cobalt sold during the fourth quarter of 2022 includes an inventory write-down of $1.6 million, resulting in an increase of $8.71 per pound. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, June 30, 2023, September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2023, the cobalt inventory sold was net of the inventory write-down taken in 2022 in the amount of $1.0 million, $0.5 million, $0.1 million and $0.02 million, respectively, resulting in a decrease to the reported cost of cobalt sold of $3.18 per pound of cobalt sold, $1.81 per pound of cobalt sold, $0.51 per pound of cobalt sold and $0.08 per pound of cobalt sold, respectively.

Changes in sales, net earnings and cash flow from operations from quarter to quarter are affected primarily by fluctuations in production at the mines, the timing of shipments, changes in the price of commodities, the commencement of operations of mines under construction, as well as acquisitions of PMPAs and any related capital raising activities.

Quantity produced represents the amount of gold, silver, palladium and cobalt contained in concentrate or doré prior to smelting or refining deductions. Production figures are based on information provided by the operators of the mining operations to which the mineral stream interests relate or management estimates in those situations where other information is not available. Certain production figures may be updated in future periods as additional information is received.

2)

GEOs, which are provided to assist the reader, are based on the following commodity price assumptions: $2,000 per ounce gold; $23.00 per ounce silver; $1,000 per ounce palladium; and $13.00 per pound cobalt; consistent with those used in estimating the Company’s production guidance for 2024.

GEO Production

For the three months ended June 30, 2024, attributable GEO production was 147,100 ounces, with the 9,900 ounce increase from the comparable period in 2023 being primarily attributable to the following factors:

 

   

8,400 ounce or 15% increase from Salobo resulting from higher throughput, with production from the third concentrator line commencing at the end of 2022 and achieving the initial completion test of 32 Mtpa in Q4 2023. From a throughput perspective, the three 12 mtpa lines operated at approximately 76% of capacity during Q2-2024, with operations at Salobo 3 being halted for one month effective June 16 due to a fire on one of the plant’s conveyor belts, as compared to approximately 68% during Q2-2023; and

 

   

6,000 ounce or 30% increase from Peñasquito (519,000 silver ounces) primarily due to higher throughput with 2023 being impacted by a labour strike which lasted from June 7 to October 13, partially offset by lower grades; partially offset by

 

   

4,100 ounce or 37% decrease from San Dimas, primarily due to lower throughput and grades.

GEO Production

For the six months ended June 30, 2024, attributable GEO production was 305,800 ounces, with the 33,900 ounce increase from the comparable period in 2023 being primarily attributable to the following factors:

 

   

26,400 ounce or 27% increase from Salobo, with production from the third concentrator line commencing at the end of 2022 and achieving the initial completion test of 32 Mtpa in Q4 2023, partially offset by lower grades. From a throughput perspective, the three 12 mtpa lines operated at approximately 79% of capacity during 2024 as compared to approximately 61% during 2023;

 

   

12,500 ounce or 28% increase from Peñasquito (1,087,000 silver ounces), primarily due to higher grades; and

 

   

7,000 ounce or 27% increase from Constancia (comprised of 5,600 gold ounces and 119,000 silver ounces), primarily due to an increase in grades attributable to the mining of the high-grade zones of the Pampacancha deposit; partially offset by

 

   

7,300 ounce or 33% decrease from San Dimas, primarily due to lower throughput and grades; and

 

   

6,400 ounce or 16% decrease from the Other mines (comprised of 4,200 gold ounces and 184,000 silver ounces), primarily due to the closure of the Minto mine in May 2023 and the temporary suspension of attributable production from Aljustrel, partially offset by higher production at Zinkgruvan.

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 will be 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 and an amount of $51 million current tax expense associated with GMT was recorded for the period from January 1, 2024 to June 30, 2024. GMT accrued to December 31, 2024 is payable on or before June 30, 2026 (18 months following year-end).

To date, the government of the Cayman Islands has indicated that they do not intend to enact Pillar Two Legislation.

For the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company reflected:

   

a current income tax expense of $51 million related to GMT (see above);

   

a current income tax recovery of $3 million in net earnings which partially offsets a current income tax expense reflected in the statement of OCI of $4 million which was the result of the disposition of the Company’s investment in Hecla Mining Company (see page 12 of this MD&A); and

   

a deferred income tax expense of $3 million in net earnings, which offsets a deferred income tax recovery in the statement of OCI of $3 million, resulting from the derecognition of unrealized gains on Hecla Mining Company shares disposed of during the period, partially offset by an increase in unrealized gains on other long-term investments in equity instruments.

For the three months ended June 30, 2023, the Company reflected:

   

a current income tax recovery of $3 million in net earnings, which reflects the carryback of a loss for tax purposes to the 2022 tax year to offset taxable income resulting from the disposition of the Keno Hill PMPA; and

   

a deferred income tax expense of $6 million in net earnings, which offsets a deferred income tax recovery in the statement of OCI of $6 million resulting from the decrease in unrealized gains on long-term investments in equity instruments.

In the opinion of management, the $540 million of cash and cash equivalents as at June 30, 2024, 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 on pages 33 through 35 of this MD&A, as well as providing flexibility to acquire additional accretive mineral stream interests.

1)

The production payment is measured as either a fixed amount per ounce of gold delivered, or as a percentage of the spot price of gold on the date of delivery. Contracts where the payment is a fixed amount per ounce of gold delivered are subject to an annual inflationary increase, with the exception of Sudbury. Additionally, should the prevailing market price for gold be lower than this fixed amount, the per ounce cash payment will be reduced to the prevailing market price, subject to an annual inflationary factor.

2)

Subject to an increase to $550 per ounce of gold after the initial 40-year term.

3)

Under the terms of the San Dimas PMPA, the Company is entitled to an amount equal to 25% of the payable gold production 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. If the average gold to silver price ratio decreases to less than 50:1 or increases to more than 90:1 for a period of 6 months or more, then the “70” shall be revised to “50” or “90”, as the case may be, until such time as the average gold to silver price ratio is between 50:1 to 90:1 for a period of 6 months or more in which event the “70” shall be reinstated. Currently, the fixed gold to silver exchange ratio is 70:1.

4)

To be increased to 22% once the market value of all metals delivered to Wheaton, net of the per ounce cash payment, exceeds the initial upfront cash deposit.

5)

Under certain PMPAs, the Company’s attributable gold percentage will be reduced once certain thresholds are achieved:

  a.

Marathon – reduced to 67% once the Company has received 150,000 ounces of gold.

  b.

  i.

Platreef - reduced to 50% once the Company has received 218,750 ounces of gold, with a further reduction to 3.125% once the Company has received 428,300 ounces, at which point the per ounce cash payment increases to 80% of the spot price of gold. If certain thresholds are met, including if production through the Platreef project concentrator achieves 5.5 Mtpa, the 3.125% residual gold stream will terminate.

  j.

Curraghinalt – reduced to 1.5% once the Company has received 125,000 ounces of gold.

  k.

Cotabambas – reduced to 16.67% once the Company has received 90 million silver equivalent ounces.

WHEATON PRECIOUS METALS 2024 SECOND QUARTER REPORT - MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS [35]


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 fourth quarter of 2024. On November 21, 2023, the Company and Vale jointly announced the successful completion of the throughput test for the first phase of the Salobo III expansion project, with the Salobo complex exceeding an average throughput of 32 Mtpa over a 90-day period. As a result, Wheaton paid Vale $370 million on December 1, 2023, representing the amount due for completion of the first phase of the Salobo III expansion project.

The remaining balance of the expansion payment is dependent on the timing of completion and will be triggered once Vale expands actual throughput above 35 Mtpa for a period of 90 days. If actual throughput is expanded above 35 Mtpa by January 1, 2031, Wheaton will be required to make additional payments to Vale based on the size of the expansion and the timing of completion. The set payments range from a total of $52 million if throughput is expanded beyond 35 Mtpa by January 1, 2031, to up to $163 million if throughput is expanded beyond 35 Mtpa by January 1, 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.

Copper World Complex

The Company is committed to pay Hudbay total upfront cash payments of $230 million in two installments, with the first $50 million being advanced upon Hudbay’s receipt of permitting for the Copper World Complex and other customary conditions and the balance of $180 million being advanced once project costs incurred on the Copper World Complex exceed $98 million and certain other customary conditions. Under the Copper World Complex PMPA, the Company is permitted to elect to pay the deposit in cash or the delivery of common shares. Additionally, the Company will be entitled to certain delay payments, including where construction ceases in any material respect, or if completion is not achieved within agreed upon timelines.

Marmato

Under the terms of the Marmato PMPA, the Company is committed to pay Aris Mining additional upfront cash payments of $122 million, payable during the construction of the Marmato Lower Mine development portion of the Marmato mine, subject to customary conditions.

Santo Domingo

Taxes - Canada Revenue Agency – 2013 to 2016 Taxation Years - Domestic Reassessments 1

The Company received Notices of Reassessment in 2018, 2019, and 2022 for the 2013 to 2016 taxation years in which the Canada Revenue Agency (“CRA”) is seeking to change the timing of the deduction of upfront payments with respect to the Company’s PMPAs relating to Canadian mining assets, so that the cost of precious metal acquired under these Canadian PMPAs is equal to the cash cost paid on delivery plus an amortized amount of the upfront payment determined on a units-of-production basis over the estimated recoverable reserves, and where applicable, resources and exploration potential at the respective mine (the “Domestic Reassessments”).

In total, the Company expects the Domestic Reassessments to have assessed tax, interest and other penalties of approximately $2 million.

Management believes the Company’s position, as reflected in its filed Canadian income tax returns and consistent with the terms of the PMPAs, that the cost of the precious metal acquired under the Canadian PMPAs is equal to the

The assessment by management of the expected impact of the Domestic Reassessments on the Company is “forward-looking information”.

market value while a deposit is outstanding, and the cash cost thereafter, is correct. The Company has filed Notices of Objection and paid 50% of the disputed amounts in order to challenge the Domestic Reassessments.

 

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.

Share Capital

During the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company received proceeds of $8 million from the exercise of 311,211 share purchase options at a weighted average exercise price of Cdn$36.79 per option (six months - $12 million from the exercise of 469,359 share purchase options at a weighted average exercise price of Cdn$35.58). During the three months ended June 30, 2023, the Company received proceeds of $1 million from the exercise of 32,611 share purchase options at a weighted average exercise price of Cdn$35.78 per option (six months - $10 million from the exercise of 430,247 share purchase options at a weighted average exercise price of Cdn$31.52.

During the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company released 1,217 RSUs (six months - 69,494 RSUs). During the three months ended June 30, 2023, the Company released 60,155 RSUs (six months – 119,827 RSUs).

The Company has implemented a dividend reinvestment plan (“DRIP”) whereby shareholders can elect to have dividends reinvested directly into additional Wheaton common shares. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, there were 27,139 common shares issued under the DRIP, with all the shares being issued during the three months ended June 30, 2024. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, there were 100,732 common shares issued under the DRIP, with all the shares being issued during the three months ended June 30, 2023.

As of August 7, 2024, there were 453,635,246 outstanding common shares, 1,101,632 share purchase options and 336,929 restricted share units.

At the Market Equity Program

The Company has established an at-the-market equity program (the “ATM Program”) that allows 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. The ATM Program will be effective until the date that all Common Shares available for issue under the ATM Program have been issued or the ATM Program is terminated prior to such date by the Company or the agents.

Wheaton intends that the net proceeds from the ATM Program, if any, will be available as one potential source of funding for stream acquisitions and/or other general corporate purposes including the repayment of indebtedness. As at June 30, 2024 the Company has not issued any shares under the ATM program.

 

WHEATON PRECIOUS METALS 2024 SECOND QUARTER REPORT - MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS [38]


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 2024

Amendment to IAS 1- Presentation of Financial Statements

The amendments to IAS 1, clarify the presentation of liabilities. The classification of liabilities as current or non-current is based on contractual rights that are in existence at the end of the reporting period and is affected by expectations about whether an entity will exercise its right to defer settlement. A liability not due over the next twelve months is classified as non-current even if management intends or expects to settle the liability within twelve months. The amendment also introduces a definition of ‘settlement’ to make clear that settlement refers to the transfer of cash, equity instruments, other assets, or services to the counterparty. The amendment issued in October 2022 also clarifies how conditions with which an entity must comply within twelve months after the reporting period affect the classification of a liability. Covenants to be complied with after the reporting date do not affect the classification of debt as current or non-current at the reporting date. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024. The adoption of this amendment did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Future Changes to Accounting Policies

IFRS 18 - Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements.

In April 2024, the IASB released IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements. IFRS 18 replaces IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements while carrying forward many of the requirements in IAS 1. IFRS 18 introduces new requirements to: i) present specified categories and defined subtotals in the statement of earnings, ii) provide disclosures on management-defined performance measures (MPMs) in the notes to the financial statements, iii) improve aggregation and disaggregation. Some of the requirements in IAS 1 are moved to IAS 8 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors and IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures. The IASB also made minor amendments to IAS 7 Statement of Cash Flows and IAS 33 Earnings per Share in connection with the new standard. IFRS 18 requires retrospective application with specific transition provisions. The Company is required to apply IFRS 18 for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027 with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of IFRS 18 on its financial statements.

Non-IFRS Measures

Wheaton has included, throughout this document, certain non-IFRS 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-IFRS measures do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS, and other companies may calculate these measures differently. The presentation of these non-IFRS 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.

 

  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 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 that, in addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with IFRS, 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).

Operating cash flow per share (basic and diluted) is calculated by dividing cash generated by operating activities by 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 companies in the precious metal mining industry who present results on a similar basis.

  iii.

Average cash cost of gold, silver and palladium on a per ounce basis and cobalt on a per pound basis is calculated by dividing the total cost of sales, less depletion, 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 prescribed by IFRS. In addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with IFRS, management and certain investors use this information to evaluate the Company’s performance and ability to generate cash flow.

Cash operating margin is calculated by adding back depletion to the gross margin. Cash operating margin on a per ounce or per pound basis is calculated by dividing the cash operating margin by the number of ounces or pounds sold during the period. The Company presents cash operating margin as management and certain investors use this information to evaluate the Company’s performance in comparison to other companies in the precious metal mining industry who present results on a similar basis as well as to evaluate the Company’s ability to generate cash flow.

Subsequent Events

Declaration of Dividend

Under the Company’s dividend policy, the quarterly dividend is fixed at $0.155 per common share. The declaration, timing, amount and payment of future dividends remain at the discretion of the Board of Directors.

On August 7, 2024, the Board of Directors declared a dividend in the amount of $0.155 per common share, with this dividend being payable to shareholders of record on August 21, 2024 and is expected to be distributed on or about September 4, 2024. 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 in Issuers’ 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 June 30, 2024 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.

Forward-looking statements are based on assumptions management currently believes to be reasonable, including but not limited to:

 

   

that there will be no material adverse change in the market price of commodities;

 

   

that the Mining Operations will continue to operate and the mining projects will be completed in accordance with public statements and achieve their stated production estimates;

that the production estimates from Mining Operations are accurate;

 

   

that each party will satisfy their obligations in accordance with the PMPAs;

 

   

that Wheaton will continue to be able to fund or obtain funding for outstanding commitments;

 

   

that Wheaton will be able to source and obtain accretive PMPAs;

 

   

that the terms and conditions of a PMPA are sufficient to recover liabilities owed to the Company;

 

   

that Wheaton has fully considered the value and impact of any third-party interests in PMPAs;

 

   

that expectations regarding the resolution of legal and tax matters will be achieved (including CRA audits involving the Company);

 

   

that Wheaton has properly considered the application of Canadian tax laws to its structure and operations and that Wheaton will be able to pay taxes when due;

 

   

that Wheaton has filed its tax returns and paid applicable taxes in compliance with Canadian tax laws;

 

   

that Wheaton’s application of the CRA Settlement is accurate (including the Company’s assessment that there has been no material change in the Company’s facts or change in law or jurisprudence);

 

   

that Wheaton’s assessment of the tax exposure and impact on the Company and its subsidiaries of the GMT is accurate;

 

   

that any sale of Common Shares under the ATM Program will not have a significant impact on the market price of the Common Shares and that the net proceeds of sales of Common Shares, if any, will be used as anticipated;

 

   

that the trading of the Common Shares will not be adversely affected by the differences in liquidity, settlement and clearing systems as a result of multiple listings of the Common Shares on the LSE, the TSX and the NYSE;

 

   

that the trading of the Company’s Common Shares will not be suspended;

such other assumptions and factors as set out in the Disclosure.

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

 

WHEATON PRECIOUS METALS 2024 SECOND QUARTER REPORT - MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS [54]


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. Any forward looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made. Wheaton does not undertake to update any forward-looking statements that are included or incorporated by reference herein, except in accordance with applicable securities laws.

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, 2023 and other continuous disclosure documents filed by Wheaton since January 1, 2024, 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 States Investors 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 2024 SECOND QUARTER REPORT - FINANCIAL STATEMENTS [6]

Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements
Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 (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 June 30, 2024, the Company has entered into 38 long-term agreements (30 of which are precious metal purchase agreements, or “PMPAs”, three of which are early deposit PMPAs, and five of which are royalty agreements), with 32 different mining companies, related to precious metals and cobalt relating to 18 mining assets which are currently operating, 23 which are at various stages of development and 4 which have been placed into care and maintenance or have been closed, located in 16 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 and six months ended June 30, 2024 were authorized for issue as of August 7, 2024 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. The accounting policies applied in these unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements are based on International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“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, 2023 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, 2023.
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 June 30, 2024 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.

Material Accounting Policy Information
 
3.1.
New Accounting Standards Effective in 2024
Amendment to IAS
1-
Presentation of Financial statements
The amendments to IAS 1, clarify the presentation of liabilities. The classification of liabilities as current or
non-current
is based on contractual rights that are in existence at the end of the reporting period and is affected by expectations about whether an entity will exercise its right to defer settlement. A liability not due over the next twelve months is classified as
non-current
even if management intends or expects to settle the liability within twelve months. The amendment also introduces a definition of ‘settlement’ to make clear that settlement refers to the transfer of cash, equity instruments, other assets, or services to the counterparty. The amendment issued in October 2022 also clarifies how conditions with which an entity must comply within twelve months after the reporting period affect the classification of a liability. Covenants to be complied with after the reporting date do not affect the classification of debt as current or
non-current
at the reporting date. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods

beginning on or after January 1,
2024
. The adoption of this amendment did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
 
3.2.
Future Changes to Accounting Policies
The IASB has issued the following new or amended standards:
IFRS 18 - Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements.
In April 2024, the IASB released IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements. IFRS 18 replaces IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements while carrying forward many of the requirements in IAS 1. IFRS 18 introduces new requirements to: i) present specified categories and defined subtotals in the statement of earnings, ii) provide disclosures on management-defined performance measures (MPMs) in the notes to the financial statements, iii) improve aggregation and disaggregation. Some of the requirements in IAS 1 are moved to IAS 8 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors and IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures. The IASB also made minor amendments to IAS 7 Statement of Cash Flows and IAS 33 Earnings per Share in connection with the new standard. IFRS 18 requires retrospective application with specific transition provisions. The Company is required to apply IFRS 18 for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027 with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of IFRS 18 on its financial statements.
 
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, 2023.
 
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 under its sustainability-linked revolving credit facility (Note 16).
The Company is in compliance with the debt covenants at June 30, 2024, 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 June 30, 2024 is considered to be negligible.

Liquidity Risk
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 June 30, 2024, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $540 million (December 31, 2023 - $547 million) and working capital of $538 million (December 31, 2023 - $541 million).
The Company holds equity investments of several companies (Note 15) with a combined market value at June 30, 2024 of $88 million (December 31, 2023 - $247 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.

Interest Rate Risk
The Company is exposed to interest rate risk on its outstanding borrowings and short-term investments. Presently, the Company has no outstanding borrowings, and historically all borrowings have been at floating interest rates. The Company monitors its exposure to interest rates and has not entered into any derivative contracts to manage this risk. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the weighted average effective interest rate

Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements

paid by the Company on its outstanding borrowings was Nil
. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 the weighted average interest rate earned on its cash deposits in interest bearing accounts was
 5.13% and 5.21%,
respectively, as compared to 4.57% and 4.03% in the comparable periods of the prior year.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, 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 and six months ended June 30, 2024, a fluctuation in interest rates of 100 basis points
 (1 percent)
would have impacted the amount of interest earned by approximately
$1 million and $2 million,
respectively, as compared to $2 million and $3 million during the comparable periods of the prior year.
 
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 and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 would have increased/decreased by approximately $9 million and $26 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.

When balances are outstanding, the Company’s bank debt (Note 16.1) is reported at amortized cost using the effective interest method.
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.
The Company will occasionally enter into forward contracts in relation to precious metal deliveries that it is highly confident will occur within a given quarter. The sales price is fixed at the delivery date based on either the terms of these short-term forward sales contracts or the spot price of precious metal.
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
Effective January 1, 2024, the Company 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.
Prior to January 1, 2024, cobalt was sold to a third-party sales agent who generally sold the cobalt to third party customers approved by Wheaton. Revenue from the sale of cobalt was recognized once the third-party customer and sales terms had been agreed to between Wheaton and the third-party sales agent, which was also the date that control of the cobalt was transferred to the third-party sales agent. Should the sales agent retain the cobalt for their own use, revenue was recognized once the sales terms have been agreed to between Wheaton and the third-party sales agent and the product has been delivered, which is also the date that control of the cobalt is transferred to the third-party sales agent.

The value allocated to reserves is classified as depletable upon a mining operation achieving first 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.

Acquisition of Cangrejos PMPA
On May 16, 2023, the Company entered into a PMPA (the “Cangrejos PMPA”) with Lumina Gold Corp. (“Lumina”) in respect of its 100% owned Cangrejos gold-copper project located in El Oro Province, Ecuador. Under the terms of the agreement, Wheaton will purchase 6.6% of the payable gold production until 700,000 ounces of gold have been delivered, at which point the stream will be reduced to 4.4% of the payable gold production for the life of the mine. Under the terms of the Cangrejos PMPA, the Company is committed to pay Lumina total upfront cash payments of $300 million, $48 million of which is available
pre-construction,
with the remainder to be paid in staged equal installments during construction of the mine, subject to various customary conditions being satisfied. As it relates to the $48 million, payments will be made in installments, including (i) $12 million which was paid on closing; (ii) $10 million that was paid on November 22, 2023 (six months after closing); (iii) $
9
 million that was paid on May 31, 2024 (12 months after closing); (iv) $
6
 
million payable on December 2, 2024 (modified from the original date of May 31, 2024) and (v) $11 million can be drawn upon for committed acquisition of surface rights, of which $
8
 
million has been paid to date.
In addition, Wheaton will make ongoing production payments for the gold ounces delivered equal to 18% of the spot gold price until the value of gold delivered, net of the production payment, is equal to the upfront consideration of $300 million, at which point the production payment will increase to 22% of the spot gold price.
Amendment to the Blackwater Gold PMPA
On December 13, 2021, the Company acquired the existing gold stream in respect of gold production from the Blackwater Project (the “Blackwater Gold PMPA”). On June 14, 2023, the Company amended the Blackwater Gold PMPA. Under the terms of the amended agreement, the Company is entitled to purchase an amount of gold equal to 8% of the payable gold production until 464,000 ounces have been delivered (previously 279,908 ounces), with this threshold to increase should there be a delay in the anticipated timing of deliveries. Once the threshold has been achieved, the Company’s attributable gold production will drop to 4% of payable gold production for the life of the mine. In exchange for the amendment, the
Company
 
paid total upfront cash consideration of $40 million.
Acquisition of Existing Platreef & Kudz Ze Kayah PMPAs
On February 27, 2024, the Company closed the previously announced agreement with certain entities advised by Orion Resource Partners (“Orion”) to acquire existing streams in respect of Ivanhoe Mines’ Platreef Project (the “Platreef Streams”) and BMC Minerals’ Kudz Ze Kayah (“KZK”) Project (the “Kudz Ze Kayah Streams”). On February 27, 2024, the Company paid $450 million to Orion, with an additional $5 million contingency payment due to Orion if the KZK project achieves certain milestones.
The Platreef Project is located in Johannesburg, South Africa. Under the Platreef Gold PMPA, the Company is entitled to purchase 62.5% of the payable gold until a total of 218,750 ounces of gold has been delivered to the Company, at which point the Company will be entitled to purchase 50% of the payable gold production until a total of 428,300 ounces of gold has been delivered. Once the threshold has been achieved, the Company will be entitled to purchase 3.125% of the payable gold production if certain conditions are met. Under the Platreef Gold PMPA, the Company will make ongoing payments for the gold ounces delivered equal to $100 per ounce until a total of 428,300 ounces of gold have been delivered, increasing to 80% of the spot price of gold thereafter.
Under the Platreef palladium and platinum PMPA (the “Platreef PGM PMPA”), the Company is entitled to purchase 5.25% of the payable palladium and platinum production until a total of 350,000 ounces of combined palladium and platinum have been received. Once the threshold has been achieved, the stream will be reduced to 3.0% of the payable palladium and platinum production until 485,115 ounces have been delivered, at which point the stream will be reduced to 0.1% of the payable palladium and platinum production if certain conditions are met. Under the Platreef PGM PMPA, the Company will make ongoing payments for the palladium and platinum ounces delivered equal to

30% of the respective spot prices until 485,115 combined ounces have been received, increasing to 80% of the spot price of palladium and platinum thereafter.
The Kudz Ze Kayah stream is located in Yukon, Canada. Under the Kudz Ze Kayah PMPA (the “KZK PMPA”), the Company is entitled to purchase staged percentages of produced gold and produced silver ranging from 6.875% to 7.375% depending on the timing of such deliveries, until 330,000 ounces of gold and 43.30 million ounces of silver are produced and delivered, reducing to a range of 5.625% to 6.125% until a further 59,800 ounces of gold and 7.96 million ounces of silver are produced and delivered, further reducing to a range of 5.000% to 5.500% until a further 270,200 ounces of gold and 35.34 million ounces of silver are produced and delivered (for a total of 660,000 ounces of gold and 86.60 million ounces of silver), and thereafter ranging between 6.25% and 6.75%. Under the KZK PMPA, the Company will make ongoing payments for the gold and silver ounces delivered equal to 20% of the spot gold and silver price. Under the KZK PMPA, BMC Minerals has a buyback option to repurchase 50% of the stream for a period of 30 days after June 22, 2026, for $36 million.

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.

Credit Facilities
 
16.1.
Sustainability-Linked Revolving Credit Facility
On June 25, 2024, the term of the Company’s undrawn $2 
billion revolving term loan (“Revolving Facility”) was extended by an additional year, with the facility now maturing 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 June 30, 2024 and 2023.
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 performance in sustainability. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the
stand-by
fee rate was 0.20%.
The Revolving Facility, which is classified as a financial liability and reported at amortized cost using the effective interest method, can be drawn down at any time to finance acquisitions, investments or for general corporate purposes. In connection with the Revolving Facility, there is $6 million unamortized debt issue costs which have been recorded as a long-term asset under the classification Other (see Note 24).

At the Market Equity Program
The Company has established an
at-the-market
equity program (the “ATM Program”) that allows 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. The ATM Program will be effective until the date that all Common Shares available for issue under the ATM Program have been issued or the ATM Program is terminated prior to such date by the Company or the agents.
Wheaton intends that the net proceeds from the ATM Program, if any, will be available as one potential source of funding for stream acquisitions and/or other general corporate purposes including the repayment of indebtedness.

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:

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.

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.

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.

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 will be 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%, is subject to the GMTA and an amount of $51 million current tax expense associated with GMT was recorded for the period from January 1, 2024 to June 30,

1)
As at June 30, 2024, the Company had no
non-capital
losses available to recognize against deferred tax liabilities.
2)
Other includes capital assets, PSU and pension liabilities.
3)
Debt and share financing fees are deducted over a five-year period for Canadian income tax purposes. For accounting purposes, debt financing fees are deducted over the term of the credit facility and share financing fees are charged directly to issued capital.
4)
The Company’s position, as reflected in its filed Canadian income tax returns and consistent with the terms of the PMPAs, is that the cost of the precious metal acquired under the Canadian PMPAs is equal to the market value while a deposit is outstanding (where applicable to an agreement), and the cash cost thereafter. For accounting purposes, the cost of the mineral stream interests is depleted on a
unit-of-production
basis as described in Note 12.

1)
The production payment is measured as either a fixed amount per ounce of gold delivered, or as a percentage of the spot price of gold on the date of delivery. Contracts where the payment is a fixed amount per ounce of gold delivered are subject to an annual inflationary increase, with the exception of Sudbury. Additionally, should the prevailing market price for gold be lower than this fixed amount, the per ounce cash payment will be reduced to the prevailing market price, subject to an annual inflationary factor.
2)
Subject to an increase to $550 per ounce of gold after the initial
40-year
term.
3)
Under the terms of the San Dimas PMPA, the Company is entitled to an amount equal to 25% of the payable gold production 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. If the average gold to silver price ratio decreases to less than 50:1 or increases to more than 90:1 for a period of 6 months or more, then the “70” shall be revised to “50” or “90”, as the case may be, until such time as the average gold to silver price ratio is between 50:1 to 90:1 for a period of 6 months or more in which event the “70” shall be reinstated. Currently, the fixed gold to silver exchange ratio is 70:1.

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 fourth quarter of 2024. On November 21, 2023, the Company and Vale jointly announced the successful completion of the throughput test for the first phase of the Salobo III expansion project, with the Salobo complex exceeding an average throughput of 32 Mtpa over a
90-day
period. As a result, Wheaton paid Vale $370 million on December 1, 2023, representing the amount due for completion of the first phase of the Salobo III expansion project.
The remaining balance of the expansion payment is dependent on the timing of completion and will be triggered once Vale expands actual throughput above 35 Mtpa for a period of 90 days. If actual throughput is expanded above 35 Mtpa by January 1, 2031, Wheaton will be required to make additional payments to Vale based on the size of the expansion and the timing of completion. The set payments range from a total of $52 million if throughput is expanded beyond 35 Mtpa by January 1, 2031, to up to $163 million if throughput is expanded beyond 35 Mtpa by January 1, 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.

Taxes – Canada Revenue Agency – 2013 to 2016 Taxation Years - Domestic Reassessments
The Company received Notices of Reassessment in 2018, 2019, and 2022 for the 2013 to 2016 taxation years in which the Canada Revenue Agency (“CRA”) is seeking to change the timing of the deduction of upfront payments with respect to the Company’s PMPAs relating to Canadian mining assets, so that the cost of precious metal acquired under these Canadian PMPAs is equal to the cash cost paid on delivery plus an amortized amount of the upfront payment determined on a
units-of-production
basis over the estimated recoverable reserves, and where applicable, resources and exploration potential at the respective mine (the “Domestic Reassessments”).
In total, the Company expects the Domestic Reassessments to have assessed tax, interest and other penalties of approximately $2 million.
Management believes the Company’s position, as reflected in its filed Canadian income tax returns and consistent with the terms of the PMPAs, that the cost of the precious metal acquired under the Canadian PMPAs is equal to the
 
WHEATON PRECIOUS METALS 2024 SECOND QUARTER REPORT - FINANCIAL STATEMENTS [41]

Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements
Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 (US Dollars)
 
market value while a deposit is outstanding, and the cash cost thereafter, is correct. The Company has filed Notices of Objection and paid 50% of the disputed amounts in order to challenge the Domestic Reassessments.
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.
