Jaguar Mining Reports Solid Third Quarter 2025 Financial Results Driven by Strong Gold Prices and Pilar Performance
TORONTO, ON / ACCESS Newswire / November 6, 2025 / Jaguar Mining Inc. ("Jaguar" or the "Company") (TSX:JAG)(OTCQX:JAGGF) today filed its third quarter results, the highlights of which are included in this news release. The interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 and the accompanying management's discussion and analysis, can be accessed by visiting the Company's website at https://jaguarmining.com or its profile page on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca. All figures are in US Dollars, unless otherwise expressed.
Third Quarter 2025 Highlights
All financial and operating results for the third quarter reflect contributions solely from the Company's Pilar mine, its only operating mine during the period. This compares to the third quarter of 2024, when the Company had two operating mines: Pilar and Turmalina. The Turmalina mine remains temporarily suspended following a slump of material at the dry-stack facility that occurred at the MTL complex on December 7, 2024. Rehabilitation work to ensure the stability of the Satinoco pile is well underway, and the Company currently expects operations at Turmalina to resume in the first quarter of 2026.
Gold production for the quarter totalled 10,002 ounces, entirely from the Pilar mine, compared to 16,912 ounces from both Pilar and Turmalina in the third quarter of 2024. This difference reflects the temporary suspension of operations at the Turmalina mine throughout the quarter.
Pilar continues todeliver a strong operating performance, producing 10,002 ounces of gold from 94,586 tonnes of ore, with a head grade of 3.68 g/t and a recovery rate of 89%. This compares to 10,433 ounces of gold from 97,000 tonnes of ore, with a head grade of 3.74 g/t and the same recovery rate, produced in the third quarter of 2024. The modest decrease of 431 ounces year-over-year was mainly due to slightly lower ore processed, while metallurgical performance remained stable. The lower head grade reflects the natural variability in the orebody and the specific mining sequence planned for 2025.
Gold sold for the quarter was 9,799 ounces, compared to 15,726 ounces sold in the third quarter of 2024. Realized gold price ¹ increased to $3,465 per ounce, representing a 40% increase from the $2,474 per ounce realized in the third quarter of 2024.
Cash operating costs ¹ for the quarter were $1,374 per ounce of gold sold and all-in sustaining costs (AISC)¹ were $2,063 per ounce, representing increases of 25% and 13%, respectively, compared to the third quarter of 2024. These increases mainly reflect the volume impact of 38% fewer ounces sold year-over-year, which spread fixed costs over fewer ounces. In addition, the quarter reflected targeted oneâtime investments, including the installation of new exhaustâventilation fans at the Pilar mine, to ensure sufficient airflow to support deeper mining in the future.
Revenue for the quarter was $34.0 million, reflecting contributions solely from the Pilar mine, compared to $38.9 million in the third quarter of 2024, when revenue included ounces produced and sold from both the Pilar and Turmalina mines. Despite the lower number of ounces sold, the impact on revenue was partially offset by higher realized gold price year-over year.
Operating costs for the quarter were $13.5 million, compared to $17.3 million in the third quarter of 2024.
Net income for the quarter was $13.0 million ($0.16 per share), compared to net income of $2.3 million ($0.03 per share) in the third quarter of 2024. The increase mainly reflects an $8.0 million unrealized gain on a short-term investment and a $3.1 million net expense reversal of legal, recoverable tax, and other provisions.
Adjusted net income ¹ for the quarter was $7.8 million ($0.10 per share), excluding non-recurring items and their related tax implication. These adjustments mainly reflect $6.1 million in expenses related to the incident at the MTL complex, $2.9 million in recoveries from the reversal of a civil litigation provision, $8.0 million in unrealized gains on short-term investment, and $0.4 million in income tax expenses.
Free cash flow 1 for the quarter was $8.2 million, compared to $4.8 million in the third quarter of 2024. Free cash flow is calculated as operating cash flow plus asset retirement obligation expenditures, less sustaining capital. On a per-ounce basis, free cash flow increased to $835 per ounce of gold sold in the third quarter of 2025 compared to $306 per ounce of gold sold in the third quarter of 2024.
Cash position and working capital¹
As of September 30, 2025, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $52.0 million, a 12% increase from $46.4 million as of December 31, 2024 mainly reflecting the impact of higher realized gold prices. This amount excludes the net proceeds from the C$28 million bought deal private placement, which closed on October 15, 2025, subsequent to the quarter (see press release dated October 15, 2025, for further details).
Working Capital as of September 30, 2025 was $11.5 million, compared to working capital of $13.7 million as of December 31, 2024.
Luis Albano Tondo, Chief Executive Officer of Jaguar, commented : "We delivered solid financial results in the third quarter, with net income of $13.0 million and free cashflow of $8.2 million. This performance was driven by the steady contribution from our Pilar mine and a strong realized gold price, which helped mitigate the impact of operating a single mine during the period. We continued to advance rehabilitation work at Turmalina and remain on track for its expected restart in the first quarter of 2026. Our focus continues on disciplined management and maximizing value across our Brazilian portfolio."

Non-GAAP Performance Measures
The Company has included the following Non-GAAP performance measures in this document: cash operating costs per ounce of gold sold, all-in sustaining costs per ounce of gold sold, average realized gold price (per ounce of gold sold), sustaining capital expenditures, non-sustaining capital expenditures, adjusted operating cash flow, free cash flow, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA), adjusted EBITDA and working capital. These Non-GAAP performance measures do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and, therefore, may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies.
The Company believes that, in addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with IFRS, certain investors use this information to evaluate the Company's performance. Accordingly, they are intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. More specifically, Management believes that these figures are a useful indicator to investors and management of a mine's performance as they provide: (i) a measure of the mine's cash margin per ounce, by comparison of the cash operating costs per ounce to the price of gold; (ii) the trend in costs as the mine matures; and (iii) an internal benchmark of performance to allow for comparison against other mines. The definitions of these performance measures and reconciliation of the Non-GAAP measures to reported IFRS measures are outlined below.
