Sierra Madre Gold and Silver Ltd. (TSX-V: SM) (OTCQX: SMDRF) and First Majestic Silver Corp. (NYSE: AG) (TSX: AG) (FSE: FMV) are pleased to announce that, pursuant to the share purchase agreement dated December 17, 2025 between Sierra Madre and First Majestic, Sierra Madre has completed its previously announced acquisition of First Majestic Del Toro, S.A. de C.V., a wholly-owned subsidiary of First Majestic incorporated under the laws of Mexico that holds a 100% interest in the Del Toro Silver Mine, as described in further detail in Sierra Madre’s and First Majestic’s news releases dated December 17, 2025 and Sierra Madre’s management information circular dated March 24, 2026. All amounts herein are expressed in Canadian dollars, unless otherwise stated in U.S. dollars.

Alex Langer, Sierra Madre’s President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “The acquisition of Del Toro marks an important step for Sierra Madre Gold and Silver as we advance towards mid-tier silver production. A past-producing asset of this scale is a complementary addition to our Mexico-focused silver portfolio. With existing production infrastructure in place, our focus now turns to near-term resource expansion drilling, with approximately 30,000 metres planned. This program is expected to support an updated Mineral Resource estimate, followed by a potential mine restart, positioning the asset for a return to cash flow generation. We see significant upside at Del Toro, both from resource growth and restart potential. We are excited to get boots on the ground at Del Toro and wish to thank First Majestic for their continued support and trust.”
