Non-IFRS Measures and Ratios
The Company reports operating expenses per silver equivalent ounce produced, a non-IFRS ratio used in the mining industry to assess unit cost performance. Its component, operating expenses, is a non-IFRS financial measure calculated for the Zacualpan segment cost of sales less amortization and depletion, and comprises mining, processing and direct overhead costs. These measures do not have any standardized meaning under IFRS Accounting Standards, may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards. The most directly comparable IFRS measure is cost of sales.
For an explanation of the composition of these measures and a reconciliation to cost of sales, refer to "Non-IFRS Measures" in the Company's Management's Discussion and Analysis for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 dated August 20, 2026, filed on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca.
Outlook
Elevated commodity prices, particularly silver, provide IMPACT with significant flexibility to enhance shareholder value. With
At Capire, IMPACT is reassessing the potential restart of silver production and rehabilitation of the mill, including the economics of the existing inferred resource and opportunities to process higher-grade material from nearby veins. At Plomosas, the Company continues exploration along the prospective 6-kilometre structure and is pursuing offtake and third-party processing opportunities using existing plant infrastructure.
With a strong balance sheet, disciplined cost control and continued investment in exploration, particularly at Zacualpan, IMPACT believes it is well positioned to capitalize on current high metal prices while continuing to evaluate new opportunities across Mexico.

ABOUT IMPACT SILVER
Royal Mines of Zacualpan Silver-Gold-Lead-Zinc Mine: IMPACT owns
100% of over 200 km2 of highly prospective ground at Zacualpan in central Mexico where four producing underground silver-gold mines and one open pit mine feed the central 500 tpd Guadalupe processing plant. To the south, the Capire Project includes a 200 tpd processing pilot plant adjacent to an open pit silver mine with an NI 43-101 inferred mineral resource of over 4.5 million ounces silver, 48 million lbs zinc and 21 million lbs lead in 1,786,000 tonnes grading 79g/t Ag,1.22% Zn and0.54% Pb (see IMPACT news release dated January 18, 2016, for details and QP statement). Company engineers are reviewing Capire for a potential restart of operations. Over the past 20 years, IMPACT has developed multiple exploration zones into commercial production and has produced approximately 14 million ounces of silver, generating revenue of more than$370 million , with no long-term debt.Plomosas Zinc-Lead-Silver Project: Plomosas is a high-grade zinc project in northern Mexico with exploration upside potential. In March 2026, the Company temporarily suspended mining operations at Plomosas while it works toward a more efficient and sustainable operating plan. Exploration potential at Plomosas lies along a long 6 km structure. This is in addition to other exploration targets on the 3,019-hectare property including untested copper-gold targets with indications of high-grade material at surface. Regionally, Plomosas lies in the same mineral belt as some of the largest carbonate replacement deposits in the world.

Forward-looking information is often, but not always, identified by the use of words such as "plan", "expect", "project", "predict", "potential", "targeting", "intend", "believe", "potential", and similar expressions, or describes a "goal", or variation of such words and phrases or state that certain actions, events or results "may", "should", "could", "would", "might" or "will" be taken, occur or be achieved. Forward-looking information in this News Release includes information concerning, among other things, strategies, plans and expectations concerning the Company's, business and operations, including those in respect of the Zacualpan, Plomosas, Capire and other projects, and the anticipated outcomes thereof; the status and potential outcomes of discussions with third parties regarding potential operational arrangements on nearby mining projects and the Company's outlook in respect of the metals market, including the demand for silver and zinc. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that may cause the Company's actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievement expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. The forward-looking information in this News Release is based on the beliefs and assumptions of IMPACT management considered reasonable as of the date hereof, including but not limited to the assumption that the temporary suspension and continued exploration work at Plomosas will produce the expected results; that the Company's development, exploration and other business activities will not be adversely disrupted or impeded by regulatory, political, community, economic, environmental and/or health and safety risks; that management's projections will be validated over time; and general business and economic conditions will not change in a materially adverse manner. Should any one or more risks or uncertainties materialize or change, or should any underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results and forward-looking statements may vary materially from those described herein.
Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially include, but are not limited to, the following: unfavorable economic conditions; changes in financial markets; the impact of exchange rate fluctuations; unstable political conditions and developments in countries in which the Company operates; community relations; criminal activity; changes in the supply, demand and pricing of the metal commodities which the Company mines or hopes to find and successfully mine; changes in regulatory requirements impacting the Company's operations; pandemics and epidemics; the ability to properly and efficiently staff the Company's operations; the sufficiency of current working capital; the estimated cost and availability of funding for the continued exploration and development of the Company's exploration properties; and other risks and uncertainties involved in the mineral exploration and development industry. This list is not exhaustive and these and other factors should be considered carefully, and readers should not place undue reliance on the Company's forward-looking statements. As a result of the foregoing and other factors, no assurance can be given as to any such future results, levels of activity or achievements and neither the Company nor any other person assumes responsibility for the accuracy and completeness of these forward-looking statements. The Company does not undertake to update forward-looking statements or forward-looking information, except as required by law.
The Company's decision to place a mine into production, expand a mine, make other production related decisions or otherwise carry out mining and processing operations, is largely based on internal non-public Company data and reports based on exploration, development and mining work by the Company's geologists and engineers. The results of this work are evident in the discovery and building of multiple mines for the Company and in the track record of mineral production and financial returns of the Company since 2006. Under NI 43-101 the Company is required to disclose that it has not based its production decisions on NI 43-101 compliant mineral resource or reserve estimates, preliminary economic assessments or feasibility studies, and historically such projects have increased uncertainty and risk of failure.

1 Silver equivalent ounces ("AgEq oz") are calculated by converting gold and lead production into a silver equivalent using average realized and provisional metal prices for the period, before final price adjustments, treatment and refining charges. For Q2 2026 the resulting conversion ratios were 63.56 ounces of silver per ounce of gold and 0.013 ounces of silver per pound of lead; for Q2 2025 the ratios were 95.29 and 0.026 respectively. Silver equivalent figures do not take metallurgical recoveries into account and, because the conversion ratios move with realized prices, are not directly comparable between periods. Silver equivalent production increased
