VIZSLA SILVER PROVIDES ADDITIONAL UPDATE ON SITUATION IN CONCORDIA

Silver miner advancing Panuco project

Executive Summary
  • Vizsla Silver confirms that nine employees were found deceased in the Concordia, Sinaloa incident; one employee remains missing.
  • Site activities at the Panuco project are suspended pending security conditions and investigation outcomes.
  • The company is providing ongoing support to affected families and cooperating fully with Mexican authorities.
  • Remote engineering and planning work continues where possible while awaiting clearance to resume field operations.
  • An operational update will be issued later, indicating potential material impact on project timelines and financial performance.
Material Impact
  • The news confirms a significant escalation from earlier reports (which noted missing persons and preliminary fatalities) to nine confirmed deaths and one still missing.
  • Operational suspension directly affects the Panuco project’s development timeline, potentially delaying the targeted construction decision (H2 2026) and first production (H2 2027).
  • Compared to prior expectations—where the market had already priced in security concerns after the Jan 28 incident—the confirmation of multiple fatalities introduces a new, material negative factor that could increase costs, trigger impairments, and affect investor confidence.
  • The event is adverse and not merely routine follow‑up; it represents a fresh, material negative development relative to the company’s size and near‑term prospects.
