2026 Guidance
As previously disclosed on July 2, 2026, the Company expects full year 2026 production to be near the lower end of its previously disclosed guidance range of 3.3 million to 3.5 million ounces of gold, reflecting the preliminary redesign of the Barnat open pit at Canadian Malartic. Estimated full year total cash costs per ounce and AISC per ounce guidance for 2026 remains unchanged at $1,020 to $1,120 and $1,400 to $1,550, respectively. Refer to the "Abitibi Region, Quebec" section below for further updates on the Barnat open pit.
Total capital expenditures for 2026 (excluding capitalized exploration) are now expected to be between $2.6 billion and $2.8 billion, compared with previous guidance of $2.2 billion to $2.4 billion, reflecting the approval of construction activities at Hope Bay announced on May 19, 2026. Capitalized exploration guidance for 2026 remains unchanged at $290 million to $330 million.
A summary of the Company's guidance is set out below.

_______________________________
8 The Company's guidance for total cash costs per ounce, AISC per ounce and capital expenditures is forward-looking non-GAAP information. For a description of the composition and usefulness of these non-GAAP measures and a discussion of revisions that have been made by the Company to the composition of certain of these measures, see Note Regarding Certain Measures of Performance below.
9 The "NTI Payment" is the payment to Nunavut Tunngavik Inc. ("NTI") under the Company's mineral production lease in respect of the Amaruq mine at Meadowbank, which is based on net profits, subject to a minimum profit margin. NTI Payments in this table are reflected on a cash basis with 2026 Guidance based on a gold price assumption of $4,500 per ounce.
Cash Taxes
The Company's expected effective tax rate continues to be approximately 34% to 36% for the full year 2026. Total cash taxes paid in the second quarter of 2026 were $623 million. For the first half of 2026, total cash taxes paid were $2.4 billion, which included a $1.3 billion payment in the first quarter of 2026 for the remaining cash tax liability for 2025. This represents approximately 70% of total cash taxes expected for 2026. The remaining cash taxes in 2026 are expected to be paid in quarterly installments ranging between $525 million and $575 million.
Cost Considerations Amid Continued Market Uncertainty
The Company does not currently anticipate any significant risk of disruption to fuel, consumables or parts supplies across its operations and anticipates that any volatility of fuel and commodity prices and currency exchange rates from ongoing geopolitical uncertainty will be captured within its 2026 cost guidance ranges.
The Company's full year 2026 cost guidance is based on an assumed diesel benchmark price of $0.78 per litre (excluding transportation and taxes). With the commencement of the 2026 sealift subsequent to the quarter, the Company has purchased approximately 70% of its diesel requirements for its Nunavut operations for the balance of 2026 and through to the 2027 sealift, representing approximately 130 million litres of diesel. These purchases were made at prices approximately 30% higher than budgeted for 2026, net of hedges. The Company expects to complete its purchase of its remaining Nunavut diesel requirements in the third quarter of 2026 and will continue to monitor market conditions and opportunistically add to its diesel hedges. These purchases are expected to reduce the Company's exposure to diesel price volatility for the remainder of 2026 and into 2027.
Diesel represents approximately 10% of the Company's operating costs, comprising approximately 7% related to direct consumption for mobile equipment and on-site power generation, and approximately 3% related to transportation and freight. Taking into account the diesel purchased to date as part of the 2026 sealift, the Company estimates that a 10% change in diesel prices would impact total cash costs per ounce by approximately $4 for the second half of 2026. For indirect diesel exposure related to transportation, a 10% change in diesel prices is estimated to impact total cash costs per ounce by approximately $2.
The Company's full year 2026 cost guidance is based on assumed exchange rates of 1.36 C$/US$, 1.18 US$/EUR, 1.40 A$/US$ and 17.50 MXN/US$.
Based on its C$/US$ exchange rate assumption for 2026 cost estimates, the Company has hedged approximately 60% of its estimated remaining Canadian dollar exposure for 2026 at an average floor price providing protection in respect of exchange rate movements below 1.38 C$/US$, while allowing for participation in respect of exchange rate movements up to an average of 1.42 C$/US$.
The stronger US dollar, combined with higher by-product metal prices, particularly for silver and copper, have helped mitigate the impact of diesel price inflationary pressures compared to the Company's full year 2026 cost guidance. The Company will continue to monitor market conditions and anticipates continuing to opportunistically add to its operating currency and diesel hedges to strategically support its key input costs for 2026.
Tariffs
The international trade disputes set in motion in February 2025 by US tariffs, retaliatory tariffs and other actions remain fluid. The Company continues to believe that its revenue structure will be largely unaffected by the tariffs as its gold production is mostly refined in Canada, Australia or Europe. Accordingly, the cost guidance provided in this news release does not include any potential further impact from such tariffs or trade disputes. The Company continues to monitor its exposure to the tariffs and trade disputes and its alternatives to inputs sourced from suppliers that are or may become subject to the tariffs or other trade disputes.
Strong Net Cash Position Supports Increase in Shareholder Returns
Cash and cash equivalents increased by $352 million from the prior quarter, primarily due to cash provided by operating activities resulting from strong operating margins (higher gold sales volume, partially offset by lower realized gold prices) and $261 million of proceeds received from the sale of equity securities. The increase was partially offset by $809 million of capital expenditures (including working capital adjustments), $625 million returned to shareholders during the quarter through dividends and share repurchases under the NCIB and $578 million related to the acquisition of properties in Finland.
As at June 30, 2026, the Company's total long-term debt was $197 million, consistent with the prior quarter. No amounts were outstanding under the Company's unsecured revolving bank credit facility as at June 30, 2026 and available liquidity under the facility remained at approximately $2 billion, not including the uncommitted $1 billion accordion feature.
Net cash increased to $3,267 million in the second quarter of 2026 compared to the prior quarter balance of $2,915 million due to the increase in cash and cash equivalents of $352 million.
In April 2026, Fitch Ratings upgraded the Company's investment grade credit rating to A- with a Stable Outlook, reflecting the Company's strong operating profile, favourable low-cost position and sustained commitment to a strengthening balance sheet. In July, Moody's Ratings completed a periodic review and maintained the Company's A3 Stable Outlook investment grade credit rating, highlighting the Company's strong scale, low leverage, mine diversity in favourable mining jurisdictions and conservative financial policies. The Company strives to maintain a strong financial position and investment grade balance sheet.
Shareholder Returns
The Company remains committed to delivering strong returns to shareholders in 2026 through a combination of the dividend and share repurchases under the NCIB, with a target to return approximately 40% of annual free cash flow to shareholders, assuming current gold prices and subject to operational needs.
The Company continues to evaluate opportunities to reduce the dilution associated with the acquisition of Rupert Resources Ltd., including potentially using the proceeds from portfolio investment sales to fund share repurchases under the NCIB. In the second quarter of 2026, proceeds received from the sale of equity securities were $261 million, which supported increased share repurchase activity and record shareholder returns for the quarter.
Normal Course Issuer Bid
The Company renewed the NCIB for another year in May 2026 on substantially the same terms which is subject to a maximum of 5% of the issued and outstanding common shares. The Company also increased its internal limit on purchases of common shares to $2 billion. Purchases under the NCIB may continue for up to one year from its commencement on May 6, 2026.
In the second quarter of 2026, the Company repurchased 2,235,947 common shares under the NCIB at an average price of $178.86 per share for aggregate purchases of $400 million. In the first six months of 2026, the Company repurchased 2,957,158 common shares under the NCIB at an average price of $185.89 per share for aggregate purchases of $550 million.
The Company believes that the NCIB is a flexible and effective complementary tool that, together with the quarterly dividend, is part of the Company's overall capital allocation program and generates value for shareholders.
Dividend Record and Payment Dates for the Third Quarter of 2026
The Company's Board of Directors has declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.45 per common share, payable on September 15, 2026 to shareholders of record as of September 1, 2026. Agnico Eagle has declared a cash dividend every year since 1983.

Commitment to Sustainability – Second Quarter 2026 Highlights
Key Value Drivers – Advancing the Next Phase of Growth
The Company is advancing a disciplined growth strategy aimed at enhancing the gold production profile in the short-term and supporting a pathway to increase annual gold production by 20% to 30% over the next decade, with a first step-up in production expected in 2030 and the potential to exceed 4.0 million ounces in the early 2030s. The growth is anchored in the expansions of Canadian Malartic and Detour Lake, as well as the construction of Upper Beaver, Hope Bay and San Nicolás, which are located in regions where the Company operates and has technical expertise, established community relationships, existing infrastructure and established supply chains, supporting compelling risk-adjusted returns.
The forecast parameters surrounding certain projects, including Detour Lake underground, Upper Beaver, Hope Bay and the "fill-the-mill" strategy at Canadian Malartic (Odyssey Shaft #1, Odyssey Shaft #2, Marban, Wasamac), were based on internal evaluations, which are preliminary in nature and include inferred mineral resources. For further information see Notes to Investors Regarding Certain Project Evaluations below.
Canadian Malartic – Potential for 400,000 to 500,000 ounces of incremental annual gold production
The Company continues to advance the transition to underground mining with the construction of the Odyssey mine, including the development of Odyssey Shaft #1. The Company is also advancing internal evaluations on three projects that, together, have the potential to increase annual gold production towards one million ounces starting as early as 2033. These projects include (i) a second shaft at Odyssey, (ii) the development of a satellite open pit at Marban, and (iii) the development of the Wasamac underground project. Marban and Wasamac are located approximately 12 kilometres and 100 kilometres from the Canadian Malartic mill, respectively. The Company believes that the rock mass movement that occurred at the Barnat open pit at Canadian Malartic on July 1, 2026, will not affect the development or production outlook for the Odyssey mine. Refer to the "Abitibi Region, Quebec" section below for further updates on the Barnat open pit.
Odyssey Development
In the second quarter of 2026, mine development remained focused on advancing the main ramp, which reached a depth of 1,190 metres as of June 30, 2026, the excavation of the ventilation raises, the development of the East Gouldie production levels and the excavation of the first loading station infrastructure. While development rates were affected by higher ground support requirements and increased material handling demands at depth, the Company continued to advance key productivity initiatives, including haul truck payload optimization, the ongoing truck conversion to enable autonomous hauling, expanded use of automated development equipment and testing of a fleet management system. With these initiatives, the Company expects to achieve its targeted development rate of approximately 2,000 metres per month in the fourth quarter of 2026. The excavation of the first ventilation raise from surface to level 58 was completed during the quarter, with the commissioning of the main exhaust fan station now expected in the third quarter of 2026.
Construction of the first loading station at Shaft #1 between levels 102 and 111 continued during the quarter, with completion of the crusher concrete pilasters and the start of structural installation. Upcoming activities include the installation of the crusher and apron feeders, as well as the development of the loading conveyor area. Development and construction activities remain on schedule to support the planned start of shaft‑hoisted production from East Gouldie in the second quarter of 2027. The first phase of shaft sinking was nearly completed, with the last bench taken on July 9, 2026, reaching a depth of 1,586 metres. The headframe changeover is expected to start in the third quarter of 2026, following the excavation of level 158. A second phase of sinking is expected to commence in 2029 with completion in 2031, extending the shaft to its final expected depth of 1,870 metres. The third loading station, located between levels 172 and 181, is expected to be completed and commissioned in 2031.
Construction of key surface infrastructure progressed, with the operational complex completed during the quarter. Phase two of the paste plant (designed for 20,000 tonnes per day ("tpd") capacity) remains on schedule for completion in the first half of 2027 to support production start-up from the shaft. Assembly of the production hoist commenced in the second quarter of 2026, with the fixed and clutch drum assemblies completed and the 12,000-horsepower variable frequency drive and transformers installed. Commissioning of the production hoist is expected in the second quarter of 2027.
Odyssey Shaft #2
The Company is advancing an internal technical evaluation of a potential second shaft at the Odyssey mine. Drilling of the geotechnical pilot hole at the planned location has been completed to a depth of 1,800 metres. Current work is focused on mine design, planning and geotechnical analysis to support a higher mining rate, surface layout, headframe design and preparatory activities to support the permitting process. The evaluation is expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2026.
Exploration at Odyssey
During the second quarter of 2026, 10 surface rigs and seven underground rigs were in operation at the Odyssey mine, drilling a total of 42,743 metres. This was supplemented by an additional three surface rigs, completing 13,789 metres of drilling dedicated to regional exploration around Canadian Malartic, including the Marban project.
Exploration drilling targeted multiple areas of the Odyssey mine, continuing to return positive results in the upper eastern and deeper areas of the East Gouldie deposit and in the internal zones of the Odyssey deposit.
In the upper eastern extension of the East Gouldie deposit, underground drilling returned several high-grade results, including hole UGEG-075-062 intersecting 5.1 g/t gold over 14.3 metres at 916 metres depth; and hole UGEG-071-034 intersecting 6.6 g/t gold over 10.8 metres at 1,046 metres depth and 6.1 g/t gold over 11.6 metres at 1,133 metres depth. This portion of the deposit has the potential to offer a second mining area in the upper levels of the mine that would provide additional operational flexibility and potentially higher grade material than the current average mineral reserve grade of the East Gouldie deposit.
Hole MEX25-354 was drilled as a pilot hole for the proposed Shaft #2 and extended a further 300 metres during the second quarter to test the lower limit of the East Gouldie deposit where it intersected 1.9 g/t gold over 16.4 metres (core length, true width undetermined) at 1,917 metres depth, 3.8 g/t gold over 19.2 metres (core length) at 1,951 metres depth, including 11.2 g/t gold over 3.8 metres (core length) at 1,945 metres depth, and 2.6 g/t gold over 15.8 metres (core length) at 1,978 metres depth. The results further demonstrate the potential for additional mineralization at depth in the East Gouldie deposit in proximity to planned infrastructure.
Conversion drilling in the Odyssey deposit encountered significant mineralization in the lower portion of the porphyry in the newly identified Artemis zone within the Odyssey internal zones. Results from the Artemis zone were highlighted by hole UGOD-057-013 intersecting 10.7 g/t gold over 7.0 metres (core length) at 1,039 metres depth, 4.5 g/t gold over 13.5 metres (core length) at 1,057 metres depth and 13.7 g/t gold over 14.6 metres (core length) at 1,078 metres depth; and hole UGOD-057-017 intersecting 7.4 g/t gold over 6.7 metres (core length) at 1,003 metres depth. Ongoing drilling at Artemis is expected to further enhance the geological understanding of this new zone.

Marban
At the Marban deposit, located approximately 12 kilometres from the Canadian Malartic mill, the Company envisions the potential development of a satellite open pit operating at a planned mining rate between 14,000 to 16,000 tpd and producing approximately 120,000 to 150,000 ounces of gold annually over a mine life of approximately 12 years with the potential for initial production as early as 2033.
During the second quarter of 2026, the conversion and condemnation drilling program in the northern and eastern extensions of the Marban deposit was completed and a new drilling program commenced that is targeting deeper mineralization northwest of the main Marban deposit. Exploration, conversion, condemnation and geotechnical drilling at Marban during the first half of 2026 totalled 28,390 metres in 98 holes.
Wasamac
At Wasamac, the Company envisions an underground satellite operation with a planned mining rate of approximately 3,200 tpd. Ore is expected to be transported to the Canadian Malartic mill for processing, with average annual gold production expected to be approximately 90,000 ounces with the potential for initial production as early as 2033. In the second quarter of 2026, the Company continued to advance optimization and trade‑off studies alongside permitting activities and engagement with stakeholders.
Detour Lake – Potential for 300,000 to 350,000 ounces of incremental annual gold production
In the second quarter of 2026, 316 metres of lateral development were completed, for a total of 1,263 metres completed to-date, including development of the exploration ramp which reached a depth of 180 metres as of June 30, 2026. The Company is ramping up its workforce and integrating additional equipment in preparation for the commencement of multi‑face development expected to begin in the third quarter of 2026. Extension of the exploration ramp to the planned bulk‑sampling location at level 200 is expected to be completed in the first half of 2027. The Company expects to provide a project update in 2027, including the potential to begin underground production from the West Extension zone as early as 2028.
Other activities supporting the underground project during the second quarter of 2026 include overburden excavation for the conveyor ramp portal near the mill, with underground ramp development planned to begin in the first half of 2027. Work also progressed on the camp expansion and detailed engineering for the paste plant, ore-handling system, underground infrastructure and electrical infrastructure, with a focus on the procurement of long lead items.
At Detour Lake during the second quarter of 2026, exploration drilling from surface using nine drill rigs totalled 52,763 metres (91,815 metres during the first half of 2026). The program continued to expand and infill the mineralization below and to the west of the mineral resource pit. The first underground drill rig was mobilized in the exploration ramp in March 2026, with underground exploration drilling totalling 2,130 metres during the second quarter (2,856 metres during the first half of 2026). A second underground drill rig is planned to be added in the fourth quarter of 2026.
The Company continued the high-intensity drilling program targeting Domain 54 in the West Pit zone during the second quarter to validate the continuity of mineralization and improve the accuracy of the geological model to complement the planned bulk sample at level 200. Highlights from this drilling included hole DLM26-1334AW intersecting 2.5 g/t gold over 62.3 metres at 275 metres depth, including 15.2 g/t gold over 5.9 metres at 264 metres depth; and hole DLM26-1324 intersecting 4.5 g/t gold over 15.3 metres at 229 metres depth, including 10.0 g/t gold over 4.9 metres at 233 metres depth, and 8.3 g/t gold over 4.3 metres at 268 metres depth.
Drilling in the West Extension zone, approximately 1.0 kilometre west of the resource-pit outline, continued to extend the underground mineral potential to the west with highlights of hole DLM26-1297A intersecting 13.5 g/t gold over 2.5 metres at 564 metres depth, 4.2 g/t gold over 6.7 metres at 610 metres depth and 4.6 g/t gold over 10.8 metres at 902 metres depth, including 14.7 g/t gold over 2.7 metres at 899 metres depth.
Drilling that tested the West Extension zone, approximately 2.3 kilometres west of the resource-pit outline, was highlighted by hole DLM26-1290 intersecting 20.8 g/t gold over 4.8 metres at 836 metres depth.

Upper Beaver – Potential for 200,000 to 225,000 ounces of annual gold production and 3,600 tonnes of copper
Located approximately 20 kilometres from the Company's Macassa mine, the Upper Beaver project is envisioned as a standalone mine and mill, with the potential to produce 200,000 to 225,000 ounces of gold and 3,600 tonnes of copper per year, based on a planned mining and milling rate of 5,000 tpd.
Development activities continued to progress well in the second quarter of 2026, with the exploration ramp and exploration shaft reaching depths of 165 metres and of 478 metres, respectively, as at June 30, 2026.
The high-intensity exploration drilling program at Upper Beaver was completed during the second quarter of 2026. The program was completed at a 20-metre spacing and focused on a portion of the Upper Beaver deposit between approximately 500 to 600 metres depth dominated by vein systems representative of the larger deposit. The primary objective of the high-intensity drilling is to validate the mineral resource model and assess grade-variability within the most representative geological zones. The high-intensity drilling program is expected to complement the planned bulk sample at the 760‑metre level and has the potential to bring forward initial production to early 2030.
The high-intensity drilling program started with zone 201 in late 2025 and continued with zone 107 during the first half of 2026. Recent highlights from zone 107 include hole KLUB26-915W7 intersecting 8.4 g/t gold and 0.10% copper over 6.8 metres at 558 metres depth, including 17.4 g/t gold and 0.31% copper over 1.5 metres at 561 metres depth; and hole KLUB26-917W5 intersecting 8.3 g/t gold and 0.26% copper over 4.5 metres at 682 metres depth and 12.0 g/t gold and 0.55% copper over 5.6 metres at 691 metres depth, including 28.8 g/t gold and 1.01% copper over 1.6 metres at 692 metres depth.
With the high-intensity drilling program now completed, an internal review of the results is underway that will include analysis of any impact on the deposit model and on the mineral reserves and mineral resources estimate.
The Company is also evaluating an expanded exploration program, including extending the shaft to a depth of 1,220 metres, as contemplated in the 2024 internal evaluation, and establishing additional drill stations to support infill and potential mineral resource expansion in the lower portion of the deposit. The Company expects to provide a project update in 2027.

Hope Bay – Potential for 400,000 to 435,000 ounces of annual gold production
On May 19, 2026, the Company announced a positive investment decision for the Hope Bay project, supported by a preliminary economic assessment (the "Study") envisioning an underground mining operation with a 6,000 tpd processing facility. The Study outlined estimated annual gold production of 400,000 to 435,000 ounces over an initial 11-year mine life and demonstrated strong economics, including an after-tax IRR of greater than 20% at a gold price of $4,000 per ounce. With only 55% of the total measured mineral resources and indicated mineral resources and 48% of the total inferred mineral resources included in the mine plan, the project offers significant long-term growth potential supported by ongoing exploration across the highly prospective 80-kilometre greenstone belt extending from the Doris mine to the Boston deposit. Refer to the Company news release dated May 19, 2026, for further details.
During the quarter, detailed engineering continued to advance, reaching approximately 67% completion as of June 30, 2026, with a focus on reducing execution risk and refining capital cost estimates. Planning and procurement activities also progressed as scheduled in preparation for the upcoming sealift season, with 73% of 2026 procurement completed and on track to support the first sealift, expected in August 2026.
Construction activities at Hope Bay continued to advance during the quarter. At Doris, work progressed on upgrades to the camp and office facilities, as well as construction of the power plant foundations. At Madrid, mine development advanced by 707 metres during the quarter, with the Naartok East ramp reaching a depth of 125 metres and the Naartok West ramp reaching a depth of 105 metres. Development of the dewatering infrastructure at Naartok East remains on schedule and is progressing ahead of the planned start of the Suluk ramp. Infrastructure and ramp development will continue through 2026, with a total of 3.3 kilometres planned. At Patch 7, excavation of the portal boxcut for the dedicated ramp was completed and ramp development began in July. A total of 393 metres of development is planned at Patch 7 for 2026.
Exploration and conversion drilling at Hope Bay totalled 36,740 metres during the second quarter (69,400 metres during the first half of 2026), utilizing up to six surface drill rigs at the Madrid and Boston deposits. Activities were primarily focused on the Patch 7 and Suluk zones of the Madrid deposit, including 30,557 metres of conversion drilling and 2,913 metres of mineral-resource expansion drilling.
At Patch 7, recent highlights from the conversion drilling included HBM26-466 intersecting 13.7 g/t gold over 15.4 metres at 609 metres depth, HBM26-478A intersecting 15.2 g/t gold over 15.6 metres at 710 metres depth and HBM26-481 intersecting 18.5 g/t gold over 11.3 metres at 328 metres depth. Exploration drilling returned highlight hole HBM26-469 intersecting 31.6 g/t gold over 3.8 metres at 852 metres depth in one of the deepest intersections of the Patch 7 zone to date.
Drilling into the Suluk zone was highlighted by hole HBM26-464 intersecting 6.7 g/t gold over 8.9 metres at 129 metres depth, further demonstrating the potential for mineral resource expansion at shallow depths near planned infrastructure.
These results are expected to contribute positively to the mineral resource estimate and updated prefeasibility study planned to be completed at year-end 2026.
Selected recent drill intersections from the Madrid deposit are set out in the composite longitudinal section below and in a table in the Appendix.
[ Mad rid Deposit at Hope Bay – Composite Longitudinal Section ]
In the second quarter of 2026, the Company started its first exploration drill program at the Boston deposit since acquiring Hope Bay in 2021. The Boston deposit is located approximately 50 kilometres south of Madrid and was not included in the Study. The program is progressing well, with 3,270 metres completed to date. Total drilling in 2026 is now expected to be approximately 6,500 metres in eight holes due to strong drilling productivity.
San Nicolás Copper Project (50/50 joint venture with Teck Resources Limited)
Minas de San Nicolás ("MDSN") received the land use change (ETJ) and the environmental impact assessment (MIA-R) permits in July 2026, marking an important milestone for the responsible development of the San Nicolás Project. MDSN acknowledges the detailed and exhaustive work of the Mexican authorities throughout the permitting process and remains committed to regulatory compliance, environmental stewardship and creating shared value for local communities. MDSN is now expected to advance the additional permits, authorizations and licenses required under Mexican law before construction or operations can commence.

Note Regarding Certain Measures of Performance
This news release discloses certain financial performance measures, including "total cash costs per ounce", "minesite costs per tonne", "all-in sustaining costs per ounce" (or "AISC per ounce"), "adjusted net income", "cash provided by operating activities before changes in non-cash components of working capital", "EBITDA", which means earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, "adjusted EBITDA", "free cash flow", "free cash flow before changes in non-cash components of working capital", "operating margin", "capital expenditures", "sustaining capital expenditures", "development capital expenditures", "sustaining capitalized exploration", "development capitalized exploration" and "net cash (debt)", as well as, for certain of these measures their related per share measures that are not standardized measures under IFRS Accounting Standards. These measures may not be comparable to similar measures reported by other gold producers and should be considered together with other data prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards. See below for a reconciliation of these measures to the most directly comparable financial information reported in the condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2026 (the "First Quarter Financial Statements") prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards. Adjustments that are not applicable in respect of the periods for which reconciliations are provided are not shown in the quantitative reconciliation.
Total Cash Costs per Ounce of Gold Produced and Minesite Costs per Tonne
Total Cash Costs per Ounce
Total cash costs per ounce is calculated on a per ounce of gold produced basis and is reported either on a by-product basis (deducting the impact of by-product metals from production costs to isolate the cost of producing an ounce of gold) and, where indicated, on a co-product basis (without deducting the impact of by-product metals). Total cash costs per ounce on a by-product basis are calculated by adjusting production costs as recorded in the Second Quarter Financial Statements for (i) the impact of by-products, (ii) inventory production costs, (iii) the impact of purchase price allocation in connection with mergers and acquisitions on inventory accounting, (iv) realized gains and losses on hedges of production costs, (v) in-kind royalty costs, and (vi) smelting, refining and marketing charges and then dividing by the number of ounces of gold produced. For periods commencing on or after January 1, 2026, the Company also adjusts production costs for the NTI Payment (as discussed further below), which adjustment only affects this non-GAAP measure only insofar as the measure includes costs from Meadowbank (that is, for Meadowbank, the Nunavut region and the consolidated Company). The Company's calculation of total cash costs per ounce for other mines and regions that do not include Meadowbank are not affected by this change.
The NTI Payment is the payment to Nunavut Tunngavik Inc. ("NTI") under the Company's mineral production lease in respect of the Amaruq mine at Meadowbank, which is a royalty based on net profits, subject to a minimum profit margin ("NTI Payment"). NTI is the body that represents the Inuit of Nunavut under the Nunavut Land Claims Agreement and holds the subsurface mineral rights on certain parcels of Inuit owned land, including at the Amaruq mine. The royalty payments under the mining leases with NTI are based on net profits at the mine, subject to a cap on allowable costs as a percentage of gross revenue. At mines located on lands in Nunavut where the subsurface mineral rights are not held by NTI (whether or not on Inuit owned lands), the Crown holds the subsurface mineral rights and imposes a net profits royalty (the "Crown royalty") under the Nunavut Mining Regulations (the "NMR"). The Company does not include the Crown royalty in its calculations of total cash costs per ounce and certain other of its non-GAAP measures as the Company classifies these costs as an income tax for financial statement purposes in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards and income taxes are generally excluded from the calculation of such non-GAAP measures. The Crown royalty is not applicable where NTI is the holder of the subsurface mineral rights. Where NTI is holder of the subsurface mineral rights, the Company instead is required to make the payment under the mining leases with NTI, which the Company views as having similar characteristics to the payments under the Crown royalty. Accordingly, to ensure comparability across the Company's mines in Nunavut, the Company revised its calculation of such non-GAAP measures to also adjust for the NTI Payment where applicable. In this news release, total cash costs per ounce for periods that commenced prior to January 1, 2026 have been calculated using this revised methodology.
Investors should note that total cash costs per ounce are not reflective of all cash expenditures, as they do not include income tax payments, interest costs or dividend payments. Total cash costs per ounce on a co-product basis is calculated in the same manner as the total cash costs per ounce on a by-product basis, except that the impact of by-product metals is not deducted. Accordingly, the calculation of total cash costs per ounce on a co-product basis does not reflect a reduction in production costs or smelting, refining and marketing charges associated with the production of by-product metals.
Total cash costs per ounce is intended to provide investors information about the cash-generating capabilities of the Company's mining operations. Management also uses these measures to, and believes they are helpful to investors so investors can, understand and monitor the performance of the Company's mining operations. The Company believes that total cash costs per ounce is useful to help investors understand the costs associated with producing gold and the economics of gold mining. As market prices for gold are quoted on a per ounce basis, using the total cash costs per ounce on a by-product basis measure allows management and investors to assess a mine's cash-generating capabilities at various gold prices. Management is aware, and investors should note, that these per ounce measures of performance can be affected by fluctuations in exchange rates and, in the case of total cash costs per ounce of gold produced on a by-product basis, by-product metal prices. Management compensates for these inherent limitations by using, and investors should also consider using, these measures in conjunction with data prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards and minesite costs per tonne as these measures are not necessarily indicative of operating costs or cash flow measures prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards. Management also performs sensitivity analyses in order to quantify the effects of fluctuating metal prices and exchange rates.
Agnico Eagle's primary business is gold production and the focus of its current operations and future development is on maximizing returns from gold production, with other metal production being incidental to the gold production process. Accordingly, all metals other than gold are considered by-products.
In this news release, unless otherwise indicated, total cash costs per ounce is reported on a by-product basis. Total cash costs per ounce is reported on a by-product basis because (i) gold is the Company's primary product and source of substantially all its revenues, (ii) the Company mines ore, which may contain gold, silver, zinc, copper and other metals, and the Company believes that isolating the cost of producing gold is a more meaningful measure of operating performance, (iii) it is a method used by management and the Board to monitor operations, and (iv) many other gold producers disclose similar measures on a by-product rather than a co-product basis.
Minesite Costs per Tonne
Minesite costs per tonne are calculated by adjusting production costs as recorded in the Second Quarter Financial Statements for (i) inventory production costs, (ii) in-kind royalty costs, and (iii) smelting, refining and marketing charges, and then dividing by tonnage of ore processed. For periods commencing on or after January 1, 2026, the Company also adjusts production costs for the NTI Payment (as discussed above in "Total Cash Costs per Ounce"), which adjustment only affects minesite costs per tonne at Meadowbank and for the Nunavut region. The Company's calculation of minesite costs per tonne for other mines and regions other than the Nunavut region are not affected by this change. In this news release, minesite costs for periods that commenced prior to January 1, 2026 have been calculated using this revised methodology.
As the total cash costs per ounce can be affected by fluctuations in by-product metal prices and foreign exchange rates, management believes that minesite costs per tonne is useful to investors in providing additional information regarding the performance of mining operations, eliminating the impact of varying production levels. Management also uses this measure to determine the economic viability of mining blocks. As each mining block is evaluated based on the net realizable value of each tonne mined, in order to be economically viable the estimated revenue on a per tonne basis must be in excess of the minesite costs per tonne. For the reasons noted above in respect of revisions to the composition of total cash costs per ounce, for the purposes of calculating this non-GAAP measure, the Company now adjusts production costs for the amount of the NTI Payment. The Company believes that this revision is helpful to both management and investors as it better reflects the cost performance at the Amaruq mine at Meadowbank and makes the reported measure more comparable across all of the Company's mines. Management is aware, and investors should note, that this per tonne measure of performance can be affected by fluctuations in processing levels. This inherent limitation may be partially mitigated by using this measure in conjunction with production costs and other data prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards.
The following table sets out the production costs per minesite for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, as presented in the Second Quarter Financial Statements in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards.

Notes:
(i)
Gold production for the three months ended June 30, 2026 excludes 440 ounces of payable production of gold at La India and 58 ounces of payable production of gold at Creston Mascota, which were produced from residual leaching.
(ii)
Under the Company's revenue recognition policy, revenue from contracts with customers is recognized upon the transfer of control over metals sold to the customer. As the total cash costs per ounce are calculated on a production basis, an inventory adjustment is made to reflect the portion of production not yet recognized as revenue. Included in inventory adjustments for Canadian Malartic for the three months ended June 30, 2026 is $5.8 million associated with the fair value allocated to inventory on Canadian Malartic as part of the purchase price allocation from the acquisition, on March 31, 2023, of the 50% of Canadian Malartic that Agnico Eagle did not then hold.
(iii)
In‑kind royalty adjustments in respect of Canadian Malartic, Detour Lake and Macassa related to in‑kind royalties of 5.0%, 2.0% and 1.5%, respectively, paid in respect of gold production at such mines, which are excluded from production costs under IFRS Accounting Standards and added back in the calculation of total cash costs per ounce. NTI Payments are incurred solely at Meadowbank and are included in production costs under IFRS Accounting Standards and subtracted from production costs in the calculation of total cash costs per ounce as described more fully above. For a discussion of NTI Payments, see "Total Cash Costs per Ounce".

Notes:
(i)
Gold production for the six months ended June 30, 2026 excludes 858 ounces of payable production of gold at La India and 134 ounces of payable production of gold at Creston Mascota, which were produced from residual leaching.
(ii)
Under the Company's revenue recognition policy, revenue from contracts with customers is recognized upon the transfer of control over metals sold to the customer. As the total cash costs per ounce are calculated on a production basis, an inventory adjustment is made to reflect the portion of production not yet recognized as revenue. Included in inventory adjustments for Canadian Malartic for the six months ended June 30, 2026 is $9.4 million associated with the fair value allocated to inventory on Canadian Malartic as part of the purchase price allocation from the acquisition, on March 31, 2023, of the 50% of Canadian Malartic that Agnico Eagle did not then hold.
(iii)
In‑kind royalty adjustments in respect of Canadian Malartic, Detour Lake and Macassa related to in‑kind royalties of 5.0%, 2.0% and 1.5%, respectively, paid in respect of gold production at such mines, which are excluded from production costs under IFRS Accounting Standards and added back in the calculation of total cash costs per ounce. NTI Payments are incurred solely at Meadowbank and are included in production costs under IFRS Accounting Standards and subtracted from production costs in the calculation of total cash costs per ounce as described more fully above. For a discussion of NTI Payments, see "Total Cash Costs per Ounce".

Notes:
(i)
This inventory adjustment reflects production costs associated with the portion of production still in inventory. Included in inventory adjustments for Canadian Malartic for the six months ended June 30, 2025 is C$3.6 million associated with the fair value allocated to inventory on Canadian Malartic as part of the purchase price allocation from the acquisition, on March 31, 2023, of the 50% of Canadian Malartic that Agnico Eagle did not then hold.
(ii)
In‑kind royalty adjustments in respect of Canadian Malartic, Detour Lake and Macassa related to in‑kind royalties of 5.0%, 2.0% and 1.5%, respectively, paid in respect of gold production at such mines, which are excluded from production costs under IFRS Accounting Standards and added back in the calculation of minesite costs per tonne. NTI Payments are incurred solely at Meadowbank and are included in production costs under IFRS Accounting Standards and subtracted from production costs in the calculation of total cash costs per ounce as described more fully above. For a discussion of NTI Payments, see "Total Cash Costs per Ounce".
All-in sustaining costs per ounce
All-in sustaining costs per ounce (also referred to as "AISC per ounce") on a by-product basis is calculated as the aggregate of (i) total cash costs on a by-product basis, (ii) sustaining capital expenditures (including capitalized exploration), (iii) general and administrative expenses (including stock option expense), (iv) lease payments related to sustaining assets and (v) reclamation expenses, each as measured on a per ounce of production basis. These additional costs reflect the additional expenditures that are required to be made to maintain current production levels. AISC per ounce on a co-product basis is calculated in the same manner as AISC per ounce on a by-product basis, except that the total cash costs on a co-product basis are used, meaning the impact of by-product metals is not deducted. Investors should note that AISC per ounce is not reflective of all cash expenditures as it does not include income tax payments, interest costs or dividend payments, nor does it include non-cash expenditures, such as depreciation and amortization. In this news release, unless otherwise indicated, all-in sustaining costs per ounce is reported on a by-product basis (see "Total Cash Costs per Ounce" for a discussion of regarding the Company's use of by-product basis reporting). For periods commencing on or after January 1, 2026, the Company revised the composition of certain of its non-GAAP performance measures, including "all-in sustaining costs per ounce", to adjust for the NTI Payments, that is, payments made to NTI under the Company's mineral production leases in respect of the Amaruq mine at Meadowbank. This revised composition aligns with changes made to the calculation of "total cash costs per ounce", discussed above in "Total Cash Costs per Ounce". For the reasons outlined above in respect of the change to the composition of "total cash costs per ounce", the Company believes that this revision to the composition of AISC per ounce is helpful to both management and investors as it better reflects the cost performance at the Amaruq mine at Meadowbank and conforms the calculations of costs used across all of the Company's mines.
Management believes that AISC per ounce is useful to investors as it reflects total sustaining expenditures of producing and selling an ounce of gold while maintaining current operations and, as such, provides useful information about operating performance. Management is aware, and investors should note, that these per ounce measures of performance can be affected by fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and, in the case of AISC per ounce on a by-product basis, by-product metal prices. Management compensates for these inherent limitations by using, and investors should also consider using, these measures in conjunction with data prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards and minesite costs per tonne, as this measure is not necessarily indicative of operating costs or cash flow measures prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards.
The Company follows the guidance on calculation of AISC per ounce released by the World Gold Council ("WGC") in 2018, except in aspect of its treatment of the NTI Payment at Meadowbank. As discussed above, the Company views the NTI Payments as having similar characteristics to the Crown royalty, which is treated as income tax under IFRS Accounting Standards and therefore excluded from the Company's AISC calculations. The WGC is a non-regulatory market development organization for the gold industry that has worked closely with its member companies to develop guidance in respect of relevant non-GAAP measures. Notwithstanding the Company's adoption of the WGC's guidance, AISC per ounce reported by the Company may not be comparable to data reported by other gold mining companies.
The following table sets out a reconciliation of production costs to all-in sustaining costs per ounce for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025 on both a by-product basis (deducting the impact of by-product metals from production costs) and a co-product basis (without deducting the impact of by-product metals from production costs).

Notes:
(i) Gold production for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 excludes 440 and 858 ounces of payable production of gold at La India and 58 and 134 ounces of payable production of gold at Creston Mascota, respectively, which were produced from residual leaching. Gold production for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 excludes 858 and 2,669 ounces of payable production of gold at La India and 39 and 64 ounces of payable production of gold at Creston Mascota, respectively, which were produced from residual leaching.
(ii) Under the Company's revenue recognition policy, revenue from contracts with customers is recognized upon the transfer of control over metals sold to the customer. As the total cash costs per ounce of gold produced are calculated on a production basis, an inventory adjustment is made to reflect the portion of production not yet recognized as revenue. Included in inventory adjustments for Canadian Malartic for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 is C$5.8 and C$9.4 million, respectively, associated with the fair value allocated to inventory on Canadian Malartic as part of the purchase price allocation from the acquisition, on March 31, 2023, of the 50% of Canadian Malartic that Agnico Eagle did not then hold. Included in inventory adjustments for Canadian Malartic for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 is C$1.4 and C$2.5 million, respectively, associated with the fair value allocated to inventory on Canadian Malartic as part of the purchase price allocation from the acquisition, on March 31, 2023, of the 50% of Canadian Malartic that Agnico Eagle did not then hold.
(iii) In‑kind royalty adjustments in respect of Canadian Malartic, Detour Lake and Macassa related to in‑kind royalties of 5.0%, 2.0% and 1.5%, respectively, paid in respect of gold production at such mines, which are excluded from production costs under IFRS Accounting Standards and added back in the calculation of all-in sustaining costs per ounce. NTI Payments are incurred solely at Meadowbank and are included in production costs under IFRS Accounting Standards and subtracted from production costs in the calculation of total cash costs per ounce as described more fully above. For a discussion of NTI Payments, see "Total Cash Costs per Ounce".
(iv) Sustaining leases are lease payments related to sustaining assets.
Adjusted net income
Adjusted net income is calculated by adjusting the net income as recorded in the Second Quarter Financial Statements for the effects of certain items that the Company believes are not reflective of the Company's underlying performance for the reporting period. Adjusted net income is calculated by adjusting net income for certain non-recurring, unusual and other items such as foreign exchange translation, realized and unrealized gains or losses on derivative financial instruments, severance, transaction costs related to acquisitions, revaluation gains and losses, environmental remediation charges, gains or losses on the disposal of assets, purchase price allocations to inventory, debt extinguishment costs, impairment loss charges and reversals, gains and losses on the sale of equity securities, retroactive payments, self insurance losses, gains and losses on the sale of non-strategic properties, multi-year donations, disposal of supplies inventory at non-operating sites, and income and mining taxes adjustments. Adjusted net income per share is calculated by dividing adjusted net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding on a basic and diluted basis.
The Company believes that these generally accepted industry measures are useful to investors in that they allow for the evaluation of the results of continuing operations and in making comparisons between periods. Adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share are intended to provide investors with information about the Company's continuing income generating capabilities from its core mining business, excluding the above adjustments, which the Company believes are not reflective of operational performance. Management uses this measure to, and believes it is useful to investors so they can, understand and monitor for the operating performance of the Company in conjunction with other data prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards.

Notes:
(i) As part of the purchase price allocation in a business combination, the Company is required to determine the fair value of net assets acquired. The fair value of inventory acquired is estimated based on the selling cost less costs to be incurred plus a profit margin on those costs resulting in a fair value adjustment to the carrying value of inventories acquired. These non-cash fair value adjustments which affected the cost of inventory sold during the period and are not representative of ongoing operations, were removed from net income in the calculation of adjusted net income
(ii) Relates to the Company's ownership percentage of an impairment loss recorded by an associate
(iii) Other adjustments relate to retroactive payments that management considers not reflective of the Company's underlying performance in the comparative period
(iv) Income and mining taxes adjustments reflect items such as foreign currency translation recorded to the income and mining taxes expense, the impact of income and mining taxes on adjusted items, recognition of previously unrecognized capital losses, the result of income and mining taxes audits, impact of tax law changes and adjustments to prior period tax filings
EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA
EBITDA is calculated by adjusting net income for finance costs, amortization of property, plant and mine development and income and mining tax expense line items as reported in the Second Quarter Financial Statements.
Adjusted EBITDA removes the effects of certain items that the Company believes are not reflective of the Company's underlying performance for the reporting period. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by adjusting the EBITDA calculation for certain non-recurring, unusual and other items such as foreign exchange translation, realized and unrealized gains or losses on derivative financial instruments, severance, non-recurring, unusual and other transaction costs related to acquisitions, revaluation gains and losses, environmental remediation, gains or losses on the disposal of assets, purchase price allocations to inventory, debt extinguishment costs, impairment loss charges and reversals, gains and losses on the sale of equity securities, retroactive payments, self insurance losses, gains and losses on the sale of non-strategic properties, multi-year donations, and disposal of supplies inventory at non-operating sites.
The Company believes that these generally accepted industry measures are useful in that they allow for the evaluation of the cash-generating capability of the Company to fund its working capital, capital expenditure and debt repayments. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are intended to provide investors with information about the Company's continuing cash-generating capability from its core mining business, excluding the above adjustments, which management believes are not reflective of operational performance. Management uses these measures to, and believes it is useful to investors so they can, understand and monitor the cash-generating capability of the Company in conjunction with other data prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards.

Cash provided by operating activities before changes in non-cash components of working capital and its per share ratio
Cash provided by operating activities before changes in non-cash components of working capital is calculated by adjusting the cash provided by operating activities as shown in the Second Quarter Financial Statements for the effects of changes in non-cash components of working capital such as income taxes, inventories, other current assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and interest payable. The per share ratio is calculated by dividing cash provided by operating activities before changes in non-cash components of working capital by the weighted average number of shares outstanding on a basic basis. The Company believes that changes in working capital can be volatile due to numerous factors, including the timing of payments. Management uses these measures to, and believes they are useful to investors so they can, assess the underlying operating cash flow performance and future operating cash flow generating capabilities of the Company in conjunction with other data prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards. A reconciliation of these measures to the nearest IFRS Accounting Standards measure is provided below.
Free cash flow and free cash flow before changes in non-cash components of working capital
Free cash flow is calculated by deducting additions to property, plant and mine development from the cash provided by operating activities line item as recorded in the Second Quarter Financial Statements.
Free cash flow before changes in non-cash components of working capital is calculated by excluding items such as the effect of changes in non-cash components of working capital from free cash flow, which includes income taxes, inventory, other current assets and accounts payable and accrued liabilities.
The Company believes that these generally accepted industry measures are useful in that they allow for the evaluation of the Company's ability to repay creditors and return cash to shareholders without relying on external sources of funding. Free cash flow and free cash flow before changes in non-cash components of working capital also provide investors with information about the Company's financial position and its ability to generate cash to fund operational and capital requirements as well as return cash to shareholders. Management uses these measures in conjunction with other data prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards to, and believes it is useful to investors so they can, understand and monitor the cash-generating ability of the Company.
The following table sets out the calculation of free cash flow and free cash flow before changes in non-cash components of working capital for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025.

Operating margin
Operating margin is calculated by deducting production costs from revenue from mining operations. In order to reconcile operating margin to net income as recorded in the Second Quarter Financial Statements, the Company adds the following items to the operating margin: amortization of property, plant and mine development; exploration and corporate development expenses; general and administrative expenses; finance costs; gain (loss) on derivative financial instruments; foreign currency translation (gain) loss; care and maintenance expenses; other income and expenses; income and mining taxes expense; revaluation gain and impairment losses (reversals). The Company believes that operating margin is a helpful measure to investors as it reflects the operating performance of its individual mines associated with the ongoing production and sale of gold and by-product metals without allocating Company-wide overhead, such as amortization of property, plant and mine development, exploration and corporate development expenses, general and administrative expenses, finance costs, gains and losses on derivative financial instruments, foreign currency translation gains and losses, care and maintenance expenses, other income and expenses and income and mining taxes expense. Management uses this measure internally to plan and forecast future operating results. Management believes this measure is helpful to investors as it provides them with additional information about the Company's underlying operating results, though it should be evaluated in conjunction with other data prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards.

Capital expenditures are calculated by deducting working capital adjustments from additions to property, plant and mine development per the Second Quarter Financial Statements.
Capital expenditures are classified into sustaining capital expenditures, sustaining capitalized exploration, development capital expenditures and development capitalized exploration. Sustaining capital expenditures and sustaining capitalized exploration are expenditures incurred during the production phase to sustain and maintain existing assets so they can achieve constant expected levels of production from which the Company will derive economic benefits. Sustaining capital expenditures and sustaining capitalized exploration include expenditure for assets to retain their existing productive capacity as well as to enhance performance and reliability of the operations. Development capital expenditures and development capitalized exploration represent the spending at new projects and/or expenditures at existing operations that are undertaken with the intention to increase production levels or mine life above the current plans. Management uses these measures in the capital allocation process and to assess the effectiveness of its investments. Management believes these measures are useful so investors can assess the purpose and effectiveness of the capital expenditures split between sustaining and development in each reporting period. The classification between sustaining and development capital expenditures does not have a standardized definition in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards and other companies may classify expenditures in a different manner.
The following table sets out a reconciliation of sustaining capital expenditures, sustaining capitalized exploration, development capital expenditures and development capitalized exploration to the additions to property, plant and mine development per the Second Quarter Financial Statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025.

Net cash
Net cash is calculated by adjusting the total of the current portion of long-term debt and non-current portion of long-term debt as recorded on the Second Quarter Financial Statements for deferred financing costs and cash and cash equivalents. Management believes the measure of net cash is useful to help investors assess the Company's overall cash position and to evaluate the future debt capacity of the Company.
The following table sets out a reconciliation of long-term debt per the Second Quarter Financial Statements to net cash as at June 30, 2026, and December 31, 2025.

Forward-Looking Non-GAAP Measures
This news release contains information regarding estimated future total cash costs per ounce, minesite costs per tonne and AISC per ounce. The estimates are based upon the total cash costs per ounce, minesite costs per tonne and AISC per ounce that the Company expects to incur to mine gold at its mining operations and do not include certain costs that will vary over time as each project is developed and mined. It is therefore not practicable to reconcile these forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable IFRS Accounting Standards measure.
Forward-Looking Statements
The information in this news release has been prepared as at July 29, 2026. Certain statements contained in this news release constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and "forward-looking information" under the provisions of Canadian provincial securities laws and are referred to herein as "forward-looking statements".

Such statements reflect the Company's views as at the date of this news release and are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions, and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements. Forward-looking statements are necessarily based upon a number of factors and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by Agnico Eagle as of the date of such statements, are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies. The material factors and assumptions used in the preparation of the forward-looking statements contained herein, which may prove to be incorrect, include, but are not limited to, the assumptions set forth herein and in management's discussion and analysis for the year ended December 31, 2025 (the "2025 MD&A") and the Company's Annual Information Form (the "AIF") for the year ended December 31, 2025 filed with Canadian securities regulators and that are included in its Annual Report on Form 40-F for the year ended December 31, 2025 (the "Form 40-F") filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") as well as: that there are no significant disruptions affecting operations; that production, permitting, development, expansion and the ramp-up of operations at each of Agnico Eagle's properties proceeds on a basis consistent with current expectations and plans; that the Company's plans for its mining operations are not changed or amended in a material way; that the relevant metal prices, foreign exchange rates and prices for key mining and construction inputs (including labour and electricity) will be consistent with Agnico Eagle's expectations; that the effect of tariffs or trade disputes will not materially affect the price or availability of the inputs the Company uses at its operations; that Agnico Eagle's current estimates of mineral reserves, mineral resources, mineral grades and metal recovery are accurate; that there are no material delays in the timing for completion of ongoing growth projects; that seismic activity at the Company's operations at LaRonde, Goldex, Fosterville and other properties is as expected by the Company and that the Company's efforts to mitigate its effect on mining operations, including with respect to community relations, are successful; that the Company's current plans to address climate change and reduce greenhouse gas emissions are successful; that the Company's current plans to optimize production are successful; that there are no material variations in the current tax and regulatory environment; that governments, the Company or others do not take measures in response to pandemics or other health emergencies or otherwise that, individually or in the aggregate, materially affect the Company's ability to operate its business or its productivity; and that measures taken relating to, or other effects of, pandemics or other health emergencies do not affect the Company's ability to obtain necessary supplies and deliver them to its mine sites. Many factors, known and unknown, could cause the actual results to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such risks include, but are not limited to: the volatility of prices of gold and other metals; uncertainty of mineral reserves, mineral resources, mineral grades and mineral recovery estimates; uncertainty of future production, project development, capital expenditures and other costs; foreign exchange rate fluctuations; inflationary pressures; financing of additional capital requirements; cost of exploration and development programs; seismic activity at the Company's operations, including at LaRonde, Goldex and Fosterville; mining risks; community protests, including by Indigenous groups; risks associated with foreign operations; risks associated with joint ventures; governmental and environmental regulation; the volatility of the Company's stock price; risks associated with the Company's currency, fuel and by-product metal derivative strategies; the current interest rate environment; the potential for major economies to encounter a slowdown in economic activity or a recession; the potential for increased conflict or hostilities in various regions, including Europe, South America and the Middle East; and the extent and manner of communicable diseases or outbreaks, and measures taken by governments, the Company or others to attempt to mitigate the spread thereof may directly or indirectly affect the Company. For a more detailed discussion of such risks and other factors that may affect the Company's ability to achieve the expectations set forth in the forward-looking statements contained in this news release, see the AIF and 2025 MD&A filed on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca and included in the Form 40-F filed on EDGAR at www.sec.gov, as well as the Company's other filings with the Canadian securities regulators and the SEC. Other than as required by law, the Company does not intend, and does not assume any obligation, to update these forward-looking statements.
Notes to Investors Regarding Certain Project Evaluations
The forecast parameters surrounding certain projects, including Detour Lake underground, Upper Beaver, Hope Bay and the "fill-the-mill" strategy at Canadian Malartic (Odyssey Shaft #1, Odyssey Shaft #2, Marban, Wasamac), were based on internal evaluations, which are preliminary in nature and include inferred mineral resources that are too speculative geologically to have economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves and there is no certainty that the forecast production amounts, set out in the table below, will be realized.
