Cash position

• As of March 31, 2025, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $40.3 million, compared to a balance of $46.4 million at December 31, 2024. Cash and cash equivalents decreased by approximately $6.1 million, mainly reflecting payments made in the first quarter which included $3.1 million relating to environmental and community provisions from to the incident at the MTL complex, and the repayment of $1.7 million of Notes Payable.

Vern Baker, President and CEO of Jaguar, stated: "The first quarter of 2025 was a transitional period, as we navigated our first full quarter of operating with just one mine, while our Turmalina mine remains temporarily suspended. Despite operating with a single asset, our team demonstrated resilience and discipline, delivering a solid performance from the Pilar mine and maintaining a healthy balance sheet. The strong gold price helped offset lower production volumes, and our adjusted earnings underscores the underlying strength of our business. At the Pilar mine, we accelerated both development and diamond drilling beyond our original plan, and we continue to expect production at the mine to gradually increase over the course of the year.

Our strong cash position provides us with the flexibility to navigate near-term challenges as we advance efforts toward a safe and responsible restart at the Turmalina mine. While we do not have a specific restart date, discussions with the governmental agencies are progressing well.

During the quarter, we started rehabilitation work at the Santa Isabel mine which is part of our Paciência complex. We expect to produce a few ounces from test mining in the third quarter, with ore processed at our Caeté plant. Should results prove positive, the Santa Isabel mine could potentially become a source of ongoing production.

Although this year we continue to face some headwinds, we are managing with focus and discipline and remain confident in the strong growth potential that lies ahead."

First Quarter 2025 Results

Non-GAAP performance measures

The Company has included the following Non-GAAP performance measures in this document: cash operating costs per ounce of gold sold, all-in sustaining costs per ounce of gold sold, average realized gold price (per ounce of gold sold), sustaining capital expenditures, non-sustaining capital expenditures, adjusted operating cash flow, free cash flow, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA), adjusted EBITDA and working capital. These Non-GAAP performance measures do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and, therefore, may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies.

The Company believes that, in addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with IFRS, certain investors use this information to evaluate the Company's performance. Accordingly, they are 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. More specifically, Management believes that these figures are a useful indicator to investors and management of a mine's performance as they provide: (i) a measure of the mine's cash margin per ounce, by comparison of the cash operating costs per ounce to the price of gold; (ii) the trend in costs as the mine matures; and (iii) an internal benchmark of performance to allow for comparison against other mines. The definitions of these performance measures and reconciliation of the Non-GAAP measures to reported IFRS measures are outlined below.

Reconciliation of Sustaining Capital and Non-Sustaining Capital expenditures

Reconciliation of Free Cash Flow¹

Reconciliation of Cash Operating Costs, All-In Sustaining Costs and All-In Costs per Ounce Sold¹

The Iron Quadrangle

The Iron Quadrangle has been an area of mineral exploration dating back to the 16th century. The discovery in 1699-1701 of gold contaminated with iron and platinum-group metals in the southeastern corner of the Iron Quadrangle gave rise to the name of the town Ouro Preto (Black Gold). The Iron Quadrangle contains world-class multi-million-ounce gold deposits such as Morro Velho, Cuiabá, and São Bento. Jaguar holds the second largest gold land position in the Iron Quadrangle with over 42,000 hectares.
