The increase is mainly due to 5% more silver and 95% more gold produced and sold ($5.4 million of increased revenue), coupled with increases of 12% and 45% in the selling prices for silver and gold respectively ($5.7 million of increased revenue). Income from mine operations in Q1 Fiscal 2026 was $35.8 million, down 2% compared to $36.5 million in the three months ended June 30, 2024 ("Q1 Fiscal 2025"). The decrease was mainly due to i) an increase of 16% in tonnes of ore processed, which led to an increase of $5.9 million in production cost; and ii) an increase of $1.5 million in mineral rights royalties, which was implemented in China in the third quarter of Fiscal 2025, partially offset by the increased revenue noted above. Net income attributable to equity shareholders of the Company in Q1 Fiscal 2026 was $18.1 million or $0.08 per share, compared to net income of $21.9 million or $0.12 per share in Q1 Fiscal 2025. The decrease in net income is mainly due to a $4.8 million charge on the fair value of the derivative liabilities related to the convertible notes issued in November 2024. Lower earnings per share was partially due to an additional 38.8 million shares issued upon the acquisition of Adventus Mining Corporation in July 2024. The adjusted net income to equity shareholders was $21.0 million or $0.10 per share, after excluding the charge on the fair value of derivative liabilities and other non-cash or non-routine items, compared to $20.6 million or $0.12 per share in Q1 Fiscal 2025. Lower adjusted earnings per share was mainly due to the additional 38.8 million shares issued noted above. Cash flow provided by operating activities in Q1 Fiscal 2026 was $48.3 million, up $8.3 million, compared to $40.0 million in Q1 Fiscal 2025. Free cash flow in Q1 Fiscal 2026 was $22.5 million, compared to $23.6 million in Q1 Fiscal 2025 as the Company funded $7.6 million in expenditures to advance construction at the El Domo Project and exploration at the Condor Project in Ecuador. Cash, cash equivalents and short term investments at the end of the quarter was $377.1 million, up 2% or $8.1 million compared to $369.1 million as at June 30, 2025. The Company holds a further portfolio of equity investments with a total market value of $72.2 million as at June 30, 2025. In Q1 Fiscal 2026, the company produced approximately 1,827 thousand ounces ("Koz") of silver, 2,050 oz of gold, or approximately 2.0 million oz of silver equivalent, 15,735 thousand pounds ("Klb") of lead and 5,229 Klb of zinc, representing increases of 6% (silver), 79% (gold), 12% (silver equivalent), and 1% (lead), and a decrease of 19% in zinc over the three months ended June 30, 2024 ("Q1 Fiscal 2025"). The consolidated production cost ("cash cost") per ounce of silver, net of by-product credits, was $1.11, compared to negative $1.67 in Q1 Fiscal 2025. The increase was mainly due to an increase of 16% in ore production, which led to in an increase of $5.9 million in production cost, while silver production increased by only 6%, resulting in a higher cash cost per ounce of silver, partially offset by an increase of $0.9 million in by-product credits as revenue from other metals increased. The consolidated AISC per ounce of silver, net of by-product credits, was $13.49, up 37.4% compared to $9.82 in Q1 Fiscal 2025. The increase is mainly due to i) an increase of $1.0 million in general administrative expenses as a result of the acquisition of Adventus Mining Corporation completed in July 2024; ii) an increase of $1.5 million in mineral rights royalty, implemented in the third quarter of Fiscal 2025; and iii) the increase in cash cost per ounce of silver.

In Q1 Fiscal 2026, the Ying Mining District produced approximately 1,689 Koz of silver, 2,050 oz of gold, or approximately 1,885 Koz of silver equivalent, plus 14,601 Klb of lead, and 1,845 Klb of zinc, representing production increases of 7% (silver), 79% (gold), 14% (silver equivalent), and 4% (lead), and a decrease of 25% in zinc, compared to Q1 Fiscal 2025. The Company reports a fatality involving a worker of the mining contractor at the HZG mine of the Ying Mining District. Silvercorp extends its sincere condolences to the family of the deceased worker. The contractor did not disclose the accident to the Company, which only became aware of the incident in mid-July when the government safety production authority initiated an investigation following a whistleblower report. The initial investigation revealed that the worker was killed by a rock fall while on a recruitment tour with the mining contractor. After the accident happened, the mining contractor settled with the family but did not follow appropriate protocols to report it to the relevant authorities nor to the Company. As a full investigation is currently underway, certain mining areas are closed, which will result in a production shortfall estimated at up to 20-25% for the current quarter. Silvercorp is waiting for the final investigation report from government agents for instruction on safety facility improvement, if any. The Company places the safety and well-being of all workers as its highest priority and expresses its disappointment that its safety policies and protocols implemented to minimize the risk of such incidents were not followed by the contractor.

Silvercorp Announces Ecuador Constitutional Court Decision Upholding Environmental License for El Domo Project
Trading Symbol: TSX/NYSE American: SVM VANCOUVER, BC, Aug. 5, 2025 /CNW/ - Silvercorp Metals Inc. ("Silvercorp" or the "Company") (TSX: SVM) (NYSE American: SVM) is pleased to report that the Constitutional Court of Ecuador has delivered a unanimous decision rejecting the final legal challenge in Ecuador against the environmental license for the El Domo mining project, thereby definitively upholding its validity. The El Domo Project, currently under construction, is the first mining project in Ecuador to have conducted an environmental consultation aligned with standards of the Regional Agreement on Access to Information, Public Participation and Justice in Environmental Matters in Latin America and the Caribbean, a multilateral treaty adopted on March 4, 2018, in Escazú, Costa Rica. This process has now been validated by multiple levels of the Ecuadorian judiciary, including ordinary courts and the Constitutional Court. The environmental license for the project was supported by 98% of the population within the project's area of influence. The El Domo Project is expected to bring significant long-term socio-economic benefits to the local community of Las Naves. Summary of Judicial Proceedings On June 5, 2024, a group of individuals filed a constitutional protection action against the Ministry of Environment, Water, and Ecological Transition ("MAATE"), seeking to challenge the environmental license and consultation process for the El Domo Project. On July 24, 2024, the local court in Las Naves Canton, Bolívar Province, Ecuador dismissed the action, confirming that MAATE had complied with applicable environmental consultation requirements prior to issuing an environmental license for the project. The plaintiffs appealed to the provincial court, and the appeal was heard on October 17, 2024, and was dismissed by the provincial court on November 12, 2024, affirming the lower court decision that MAATE correctly discharged its environmental consultation obligations prior to issuing an environmental license of the El Domo Project. Subsequently, on December 19, 2024, the plaintiffs filed an Extraordinary Protection Action (EPA) before the Constitutional Court of Ecuador. On February 26, 2025, the Constitutional Court issued a decision declining to admit the EPA, stating that it failed to meet constitutional criteria for admission. On March 3, 2025, the plaintiffs filed a motion for clarification. On July 24, 2025, the Constitutional Court unanimously rejected the clarification motion. Despite anti-mining groups having failed at every level of Ecuador's judiciary—including the Constitutional Court—they continue to engage in unlawful and disruptive activities aimed at obstructing the lawful development of the El Domo Project. These actions have created safety concerns and threaten the rule of law but have not materially impacted project advancement to date. Silvercorp remains steadfast in its commitment to advancing the El Domo Project responsibly and in full compliance with Ecuadorian law. Silvercorp and its partners are committed to responsible mineral development and to supporting local communities. The Company has consistently conducted its operations in compliance with applicable laws and regulations and in alignment with the highest environmental, social, and governance standards. It looks forward to advancing the El Domo Project into production with the same dedication to ethical and sustainable practices. Silvercorp is a Canadian mining company producing silver, gold, lead, and zinc with a long history of profitability and growth potential. The Company's strategy is to create shareholder value by 1) focusing on generating free cash flow from long life mines; 2) organic growth through extensive drilling for discovery; 3) ongoing merger and acquisition efforts to unlock value; and 4) long term commitment to responsible mining and ESG.

IBN Announces Latest Episode of The MiningNewsWire Podcast featuring Lon Shaver, President of Silvercorp Metals Inc.
AUSTIN, Texas, July 31, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — via IBN – IBN, a multifaceted communications organization engaged in connecting public companies to the investment community, is pleased to announce the release of the latest episode of The MiningNewsWire Podcast as part of its sustained effort to provide specialized content distribution via widespread syndication channels. The MiningNewsWire Podcast features revealing sit-downs with executives who are shaping the future of the global mining industry. The latest episode features Lon Shaver, President of Silvercorp Metals Inc. (NYSE American: SVM) (TSX: SVM), a Canadian mining company producing silver, gold, lead, and zinc, with a long history of profitability and growth. During the interview, Shaver shared how Silvercorp is evolving beyond its silver-focused roots into a diversified, multi-asset producer. 'We're a growth company in transition. Our recent acquisition brought us into Ecuador, and we remain very active in pursuing new opportunities to grow the company and expand our asset base… We really like to deliver for our shareholders — to be a multi-asset, multi-jurisdiction company within a couple of years.' He went on to explain the financial strategy behind Silvercorp's current expansion efforts. 'The roughly $240 million in capital estimated for El Domo… $175 [million] of that will be funded by Wheaton. There's a stream arrangement in place… The balance — $75 million — we can easily fund that out of cash on hand. So, that will allow us to continue to look at new targets for growth as well as pay our dividend, which arguably is a bit symbolic at present… but it's really meant to show that good times and bad in the silver market, we intend to give our shareholders a return on their investment.' Shaver also emphasized what sets the company apart from peers in the sector. 'In addition to being a good operator and a consistent operator with a long track record… we've shown through our M&A efforts really a good nose for surfacing value. We've seen a number of targets that we thought were good acquisition targets. We didn't always get them because we didn't chase them and overpay, but I think we've done a good job at finding good opportunities and trying to bring them into the company for our shareholders.'
