What are your key goals for the next 3, 6 and 12 months?

3 Months

Increase and optimize production across our four Mexico operations - Los Gatos, San Dimas, Santa Elena, and La Encantada - while continuing exploration across our Mexico and US operations, with a focus on the Santo Nino and Navidad discoveries at our Santa Elena property, our exploration program at Jerritt Canyon in Nevada, and the new high-grade intercept of Coronado vein at San Dimas.

6 Months

Continuing to optimize production and mining across all our operations including increasing throughput rates at our Los Gatos and Santa Elena mines. Additionally, the Company will be focused on providing production and cost guidance for 2026, updates on continuing exploration programs across the portfolio and specifically at Santa Elena and Jerritt Canyon, as well as updating our Reserves & Resources Estimates at the end of Q1 2026.

12 Months

The key goals of First Majestic are to grow production profitably through the exploration, development and optimization of our existing mineral properties and acquiring new assets through smart accretive transactions, while lowering costs and investing in R&D to remain an industry leader in innovation and processing technologies. The Company's goal is to become the world's largest primary silver producer.

 

What do you think makes your company such a compelling investment?

Silver prices have rallied again in 2025 along with the Gold price but there is more room to go. Forecasted annual silver consumption worldwide is ~1.2 billion oz in 2025, driven by growth in industrial demand, compared to annual mine production of ~825 million oz. This will be the fifth straight year of deficit according to the Silver Institute. As the world continues running towards a high-tech economy requiring heavy energy consumption, we will need more technologies like AI and additional efficient energy production and storage like EV batteries and photovoltaic solar panels, that utilize silver.

First Majestic boasts industry-leading trading liquidity and leverage to silver with production guidance of approximately 32 million silver equivalent ounces in 2025, with about 55% of revenues from silver and 33% from gold. Furthermore, First Majestic has 255,000m of exploration planned in 2025 across our five projects, including Jerritt Canyon, which has led to some promising discoveries such as the new high-grade gold and silver discovery, Santo Nino, at our Santa Elena property. 2025 has so far been a transformational year for First Majestic on the back of optimizations at San Dimas and the acquisition and integration of Los Gatos in January. Looking forward, revenue and earnings growth is anticipated over the next few years, and combined with our strong balance sheet, position the company and its shareholders well to capitalize on the rising price of silver.
