La Preciosa Milestones
Steady Progress & Increased Development Production: Ongoing extraction, haulage, and processing of mineralized development material from La Preciosa was above plan in Q2 2026, primarily due to Mill Circuit 2 becoming available. This increased throughput was offset by intentional processing of lower-grade development ore during elevated metal prices, that would have otherwise been stockpiled. Development production increased
59% from Q1 2026, contributing 100,658 AgEq1 ounces, and consisting of 84,806 silver oz and 182 gold oz.2026 Drill Program: There are two drills currently turning at La Preciosa, with 6,591 meters of drilling completed at the end of Q2 as part of the planned 15,000 metres of exploration for 2026. Drilling has now shifted from infill holes to exploration and step-out holes at high-priority targets at vein intersections and projections. It is important to note that none of the infill drilling holes completed to date were included in the mineral reserve update mentioned below. Furthermore, most of the exploration holes are in areas outside the current resource model.
Consistent Mill Throughput: In Q2 2026, mill throughput remained on plan with 184,293 tonnes processed from both Avino and La Preciosa. Continued steady mill performance and availability reflects the impact of targeted upgrades and automation initiatives led by our operations and maintenance teams over recent years.
Operating Highlights
Primary Silver Revenues:
54% of the Company's Q2 2026 revenues came from the sales of silver processed from the production material from the Avino Mine and development material from La Preciosa at an average realized price of$68.90 per silver ounce.Inaugural Mineral Reserve Estimate at Avino and La Preciosa: On April 16, 2026, Avino announced the completion of a new Mineral Reserve Estimate and updated Mineral Resource Estimate which includes La Preciosa, the Avino Mine (consisting of the Elena Tolosa ("ET") deposit, Guadelupe, and La Potosina). Collectively, the Company's assets host proven and probable mineral reserves of 27 million tonnes for 127 million silver equivalent ounces at a grade of 145 g/t. In mineral resources, collectively the Company holds measured and indicated mineral resources totaling 67.7 million tonnes and 301 million silver equivalent ounces at a grade of 162 g/t, as well as inferred mineral resources totaling 24.8 million tonnes and 87.6 million silver equivalent ounces at a grade of 123 g/t.
2026 Drill Program at Avino: Drilling remains ongoing in the same locations as in Q1 as we continue to understand the nature of the veining. The first drill was focused in the upper area in the eastern portion of the system. The second drill at Avino was focused on extension drilling in the footwall breccia area in the upper east portion. During the second quarter, Avino has been hosting geological consultants that are helping identify key geological features to target areas for resource expansion.
Health and Safety Performance: For Q2 2026, the Company achieved a Lost Time Incident Frequency Rate ("LTIFR") of 4.82 per 1,000,000 hours worked. Total reportable lost time incident rate was 0.10.
Corporate
Normal Course Issuer Bid Approval: Early in the 2nd quarter, Avino announced that the TSX had accepted the Company's notice of Intention to repurchase for cancellation up to an aggregate of 8,423,566 common shares, or approximately
5% of the Company's issued and outstanding shares. Avino is in a strong financial position, and at current silver prices and enough free cash flow generation in 2026 to support the repurchase of common shares, bringing additional value to shareholders and further underscoring our commitment to delivering strong shareholder returns.
Senior Leadership Appointments: The Company strengthened its senior leadership team with the appointment of Marc Turcotte as Senior Vice President, Corporate Development, and the promotion of Peter Latta to Senior Vice President, Technical Services. The June 8, 2026 news release can be viewed here.

Footnotes:
Silver equivalent or "AgEq" was calculated using metal prices of
$45.30 per oz Ag,$3,929 per oz Au and$4.85 per lb Cu. These metal prices are based on the Company's 2026 budget as approved by the Board of Directors, and previous periods have been recalculated using these prices for comparability purposes. Calculated figures may not add up due to rounding."Silver equivalent payable ounces sold" for the purposes of cash costs and all-in sustaining costs consists of the sum of payable silver ounces, gold ounces and copper tonnes sold, before penalties, treatment charges, and refining charges, multiplied by the ratio of the average spot gold and copper prices to the average spot silver price for the corresponding period.
