CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL RESULTS

Revenue in Q1 Fiscal 2026 was $ 81.3 million, up 13% compared to $ 72.2 million in Q1 Fiscal 2025 . 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.

CONSOLIDATED OPERATIONAL RESULTS

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.

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.
