**Wheaton Precious Metals Announces 2022 Production and Sales Results and Forecasts Over 30% Long-Term Growth**

TSX \| NYSE \| LSE: WPM

VANCOUVER, BC, Feb. 21, 2023 /CNW/ - "Wheaton delivered solid production results at the low end of guidance despite facing a number of headwinds in 2022. In addition, we took steps to optimize our portfolio as part of our responsibility to manage our existing assets and to ensure we are well positioned for a period of prolonged growth," said Randy Smallwood, President and Chief Executive Officer of Wheaton Precious Metals. "Wheaton further diversified its asset base in 2022 by adding four additional streams on development assets, which will contribute to our steady organic growth over the next five years. Given the strong tenure of our reserve and resource base, we are also pleased to continue to present ten-year production guidance highlighting the long-term strength in our portfolio."

Wheaton Precious Metals™ Corp. ("Wheaton" or the "Company") will provide full production and financial details with the release of its 2022 fourth quarter and full year results on Thursday, March 9, 2023, after market close.

| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Palladium Ounces |  | 15485 | 15076 |

---

<br> In 2022, gold equivalent production met the low end of the revised guidance primarily as a result of stronger than expected production at Antamina due to higher grades being offset by weaker than expected production from Salobo due to lower throughput and grades as a result of changes in maintenance routines and Stillwater due to lower throughput as a result of significant regional flooding that impacted operations primarily in the second half of the year.

**2023 and Long-Term Production Outlook**

---

<br> In 2023, gold equivalent production is forecast to be slightly higher than 2022 as expected stronger attributable production from Salobo and Constancia is forecast to be offset by weaker production from Antamina and the termination of the silver stream on Yauliyacu. Attributable production is forecast to increase at Salobo as a result of uninterrupted operations as well as the start-up of the Salobo III mine expansion and at Constancia due to higher grades associated with the mining of the Pampacancha deposit. Attributable production is forecast to decrease a Antamina due to lower grades as per the mine plan.

On August 18, 2022, the Company announced that it had entered into an agreement with Glencore plc ("Glencore") to terminate its silver stream on the Yauliyacu Mine in Peru for a cash payment of $150 million, less the aggregate value of any deliveries to Wheaton, prior to closing, of silver produced subsequent to December 31, 2021. Wheaton agreed to terminate the stream in order to help facilitate the sale of the Yauliyacu Mine by Glencore. In the fourth quarter of 2022, the stream was terminated, and Wheaton received $132 million from Glencore. In 2022, attributable production from the Yauliyacu mine was approximately 2.1 million ounces of silver.

Average forecast production over the next five years is expected to increase primarily due to anticipated continued production growth from Salobo, Stillwater, Constancia, Voisey's Bay and Marmato as well as incremental production ounces from Blackwater, Toroparu, Marathon, Rosemont and Santo Domingo towards the latter end of the forecast period. Average forecast production over the next ten years includes additional incremental production from the Fenix project, Kutcho project and the Victor mine in Sudbury. Vale S.A. has indicated the potential for an additional expansion after the Salobo III expansion, but Wheaton does not currently include this in its forecast. Lastly, although Barrick Gold Corp. continues to advance a comprehensive review of the Pascua Lama project, Wheaton does not include any production from the project in its estimated average ten-year production guidance.

**Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2022 Results**<br> Wheaton will release its 2022 fourth quarter and full year results on Thursday, March 9, 2023, after market close.

A conference call will be held on Friday, March 10, 2023, starting at 11:00 am (Eastern Time) to discuss these results. To participate in the live call please use one of the following methods:

## Wheaton Precious Metals Announces 2022 Production and Sales Results and Forecasts Over 30% Long-Term Growth

'Wheaton delivered solid production results at the low end of guidance despite facing a number of headwinds in 2022. In addition, we took steps to optimize our portfolio as part of our responsibility to manage our existing assets and to ensure we are well positioned for a period of prolonged growth,' said Randy Smallwood, President and Chief Executive Officer of Wheaton Precious Metals.

Given the strong tenure of our reserve and resource base, we are also pleased to continue to present ten-year production guidance highlighting the long-term strength in our portfolio.'

Wheaton Precious MetalsTM Corp. ('Wheaton' or the 'Company') will provide full production and financial details with the release of its 2022 fourth quarter and full year results on Thursday, March 9, 2023, after market close.

### 2022 Attributable Production and Sales

| Metal | 2022 Forecast Production | 2022 Actual Production 1 | 2022 Actual Sales |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Gold Ounces | 300,000 to 320,000 | 286,985 | 293,234 |
| Silver Ounces ('000s) | 22,500 to 24,000 | 23,979 | 21,570 |
| Other Metals (GEOs 2 ) | 35,000 to 40,000 | 31,347 | 36,625 |
| Palladium Ounces |  | 15,485 | 15,076 |
| Cobalt pounds ('000s) |  | 724 | 1,038 |
| Gold Equivalent Ounces 2 based on: $1,800 / oz gold, $24 / oz silver, $2,100 / oz palladium and $33 / lb cobalt | 640,000 to 680,000 | 638,048 | 617,450 |

In 2022, gold equivalent production met the low end of the revised guidance primarily as a result of stronger than expected production at Antamina due to higher grades being offset by weaker than expected production from Salobo due to lower throughput and grades as a result of changes in maintenance routines and Stillwater due to lower throughput as a result of significant regional flooding that impacted operations primarily in the second half of the year.

### 2023 and Long-Term Production Outlook

| Metal | 2023 Forecast 1 | 5-year Annual Average (2023-2027) 3 | 10-year Annual Average (2023-2032) 3 |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Gold Ounces | 320,000 to 350,000 |  |  |
| Silver Ounces ('000s) | 20,000 to 22,000 |  |  |
| Other Metals (Palladium & Cobalt) (GEOs 4 ) | 22,000 to 25,000 |  |  |
| Gold Equivalent Ounces 4 based on: $1,850 / oz gold, $24 / oz silver, $1,800 / oz palladium, $1,100 / oz platinum and $18.75 / lb cobalt | 600,000 to 660,000 | 810,000 | 850,000 |

In 2023, gold equivalent production is forecast to be slightly higher than 2022 as expected stronger attributable production from Salobo and Constancia is forecast to be offset by weaker production from Antamina and the termination of the silver stream on Yauliyacu. Attributable production is forecast to increase at Salobo as a result of uninterrupted operations as well as the start-up of the Salobo III mine expansion and at Constancia due to higher grades associated with the mining of the Pampacancha deposit. Attributable production is forecast to decrease at Antamina due to lower grades as per the mine plan.

On August 18, 2022, the Company announced that it had entered into an agreement with Glencore plc ('Glencore') to terminate its silver stream on the Yauliyacu Mine in Peru for a cash payment of $150 million, less the aggregate value of any deliveries to Wheaton, prior to closing, of silver produced subsequent to December 31, 2021.

In the fourth quarter of 2022, the stream was terminated, and Wheaton received $132 million from Glencore. In 2022, attributable production from the Yauliyacu mine was approximately 2.1 million ounces of silver.

Average forecast production over the next five years is expected to increase primarily due to anticipated continued production growth from Salobo, Stillwater, Constancia, Voisey's Bay and Marmato as well as incremental production ounces from Blackwater, Toroparu, Marathon, Rosemont and Santo Domingo towards the latter end of the forecast period. Average forecast production over the next ten years includes additional incremental production from the Fenix project, Kutcho project and the Victor mine in Sudbury. Vale S.A. has indicated the potential for an additional expansion after the Salobo III expansion, but Wheaton does not currently include this in its forecast. Lastly, although Barrick Gold Corp. continues to advance a comprehensive review of the Pascua Lama project, Wheaton does not include any production from the project in its estimated average ten-year production guidance.

### **End Notes**

$^{1}$ Ounces produced represent the quantity of gold, silver, palladium and cobalt contained in concentrate or doré prior to smelting or refining deductions. Production figures and average payable rates are based on information provided by the operators of the mining operations to which the silver, gold, palladium or cobalt interests relate or management estimates in those situations where other information is not available (specifically, final 2022 production information for Zinkgruvan, Neves-Corvo, and Los Filos is based on management estimates). Certain production figures may be updated in future periods as additional information is received.

$^{2}$ Gold equivalent ounces for 2022 actual production and sales are calculated by converting silver, palladium and cobalt to a gold equivalent by using the following commodity price assumptions, $1,800 per ounce gold, $24 per ounce silver, $2,100 per ounce palladium and $33 per pound cobalt.

$^{3}$ Five- and ten-year guidance do not include optionality production from Pascua Lama, Navidad, Cotabambas, Metatas, or additional expansions at Salobo outside of the project currently in construction. In addition, five-year guidance also does not include any production from Kutcho or the Victor project at Sudbury.

$^{4}$ Gold equivalent forecast production for 2023 and the longer-term outlook are based on the following updated commodity price assumptions: $1,850 per ounce gold, $24 per ounce silver, $1,800 per ounce palladium, $1,100 per ounce of platinum and $18.75 per pound cobalt.
