Wheaton Precious Metals Completes Previously Announced

Gold Stream on the Hemlo Mine

Vancouver, British Columbia - Wheaton Precious Metals™ Corp. ("Wheaton" or the "Company") is pleased to announce it has completed the previously announced Gold Stream (the "Gold Stream") with Carcetti Capital Corporation ("Carcetti") to support Carcetti's acquisition (the "Acquisition") of the Hemlo Mine from Barrick Mining Corporation ("Barrick"), which closed November 26, 2025. The closing of this transaction will deliver immediate production and cash flow to Wheaton.

Carcetti's final financing package for the Acquisition included:

(All values in US$ unless otherwise noted)

§      A $300 million Wheaton Gold Stream;

§      Concurrent equity financing with gross proceeds totalling $542 million (the "Equity Financing"), of which Wheaton participated in the amount of approximately $30 million; and

§     Up to $250 million in bank debt (the "Acquisition Facility").

The Gold Stream is a key component of Carcetti's comprehensive financing package, aiding  Carcetti with the capital required to complete the Acquisition and advance further improvements at Hemlo. Carcetti has elected to change its name to Hemlo Mining Corp. ("HMC"). Wheaton had originally committed total upfront consideration of up to $400 million, of which HMC elected an amount of $300 million, in accordance with the terms of the commitment.

Gold Stream Key Terms

§     Upfront Consideration: Wheaton has paid HMC total upfront cash consideration of $300 million (the "Deposit").

§    Streamed Metal: Wheaton will purchase 10.13% of the payable gold until a total of 135,750 ounces of gold has been delivered (the "First Dropdown Threshold"), at which point Wheaton will purchase 6.75% of the payable gold until an additional 117,998 ounces of gold has been delivered (the "Second Dropdown Threshold"), at which point Wheaton will purchase 4.50% of payable gold for the life of the mine.  Each of the First Dropdown Threshold and the Second Dropdown Threshold will be subject to adjustment if there are delays in deliveries relative to an agreed schedule, and commencing in 2033, if deliveries fall behind the agreed schedule by 10 thousand ounces ("Koz") or more, the stream percentage will be increased by 5% until deliveries catch up with the agreed schedule. The payable gold will be reduced by half with respect to gold production from certain claims comprising the Interlake deposit. Payable gold is calculated using a fixed payable factor of 99.95%.  

§   Effective Date: The Gold Stream has an effective date of October 31, 2025. 

§     Production Profile1: Attributable Gold Stream production is forecast to average approximately 15 Koz of gold per annum for the first 10 full years of production, and over 13 Koz per annum for the life of mine. The Hemlo Mine is forecast to have a 14-year mine life, with significant brownfield exploration potential near existing underground infrastructure.

§     Production Payments: Wheaton will make ongoing payments for the gold ounces delivered equal to 20% of the spot price of gold.

§     Incremental Reserves and Resources[1]: The addition of the Hemlo Mine will increase Wheaton's total estimated Proven and Probable Mineral gold reserves by 0.19 million ounces ("Moz"), Measured and Indicated Mineral gold resources by 0.06 Moz and Inferred gold resources by 0.03 Moz.

§    Other Considerations:

o  Wheaton will obtain a right of first refusal on any future precious metal streams, royalties, prepays or similar transactions with respect to the Hemlo Mine.

o  HMC will provide Wheaton with corporate guarantees, as well as first-priority security interests on substantially all of HMC's assets on a shared basis with the lenders under the Acquisition Facility.

o  HMC is expected to comply in all material respects with the Global Industry Standard on Tailings Management, the Towards Sustainable Mining Standard, and Wheaton's Partner/Supplier Code of Conduct, which outlines Wheaton's expectations in regard to environmental, social and governance ("ESG") matters.

Financing the Transactions

As at September 30, 2025, the Company had approximately $1.2 billion of cash on hand. Wheaton believes that, when combined with the liquidity available under its $2 billion revolving term loan and ongoing operating cash flows, it is well positioned to fund the acquisition of the Gold Stream. This financial position supports outstanding commitments and known contingencies, while providing flexibility to pursue additional accretive mineral stream interests.

Cautionary Language Regarding Reserves and Resources

For further information on Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources and on Wheaton more generally, readers should refer to Wheaton's Annual Information Form for the year ended December 31, 2024, which was filed on March 31, 2025 and other continuous disclosure documents filed by Wheaton since January 1, 2025, available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca. Wheaton's Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources are subject to the qualifications and notes set forth therein. Mineral Resources, which are not Mineral Reserves, do not have demonstrated economic viability.

Cautionary Note to United 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.

Shares of Wheaton Precious Metals Corp. WPM have gained 8% since reporting adjusted earnings per share of 62 cents in third-quarter 2025 on Nov. 6, surpassing the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 59 cents. The bottom line surged 83.7% year over year.

WPM’s Q3 Revenues Reflect Higher Metal Prices

Wheaton Precious generated revenues of around $476 million in the quarter, which rose 54.5% on a year-over-year basis. The year-over-year increase was attributed to higher average realized gold equivalent prices and gold equivalent ounces (GEOs) sold. The top line beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $471 million.

In third-quarter 2025, the average realized gold price was $3,481 per ounce. The figure was 39.7% higher than the year-ago quarter. Silver prices were $39.66 per ounce in the reported quarter, up 33.5% year over year. Palladium prices were $1,173 per ounce, up 21.1% from $969 in the prior-year quarter. Cobalt prices increased 70.8% year over year to $18.19 per pound.
