THIRD QUARTER AND NINE MONTHS FINANCIAL RESULTS

WHEATON PRECIOUS METALS ANNOUNCES RECORD OPERATING CASH FLOW, REVENUE AND SALES VOLUMES IN THE FIRST NINE MONTHS OF 2020

“Wheaton’s high-quality portfolio of assets generated nearly $230 million in operating cash flow in the third quarter alone, resulting in a record of over $555 million in the first nine months of 2020. Given Wheaton’s unique dividend policy, the strong cash flow in the quarter resulted in a 20% increase in our dividend,” said Randy Smallwood, President and Chief Executive Officer of Wheaton Precious Metals. “In addition, production in the third quarter rebounded strongly following temporary suspensions of some operations as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic in the prior quarter, and the Company is on track to meet the higher end of our guidance.”

“Wheaton continues to focus on delivering value to all of its stakeholders. To our partners and our communities, we have now deployed approximately $3 million of our COVID-19 response fund to support various programs globally. To our current shareholders, we substantially increased our dividend and continued to advance numerous new streaming opportunities that would add accretive growth to Wheaton’s portfolio. And finally, to those investors that do not own our shares yet, we hope that our recently announced listing on the London Stock Exchange provides another point of entry and makes it easier to invest in Wheaton.”

Third Quarter Highlights:

•

Over $228 million in operating cash flow in the quarter, an increase of 60% relative to Q3 2019.

•

Net debt¹ reduced by $231 million resulting in a net debt position of $278 million.

•

Attributable gold equivalent² production was 171,900 ounces in the quarter with the slight reduction relative to Q3 2019 primarily due to the mining of lower grade material at Salobo.

•

Declared quarterly dividend¹ of $0.12 per common share, a 20% increase from Q2 2020.

•

Donated $3 million of the $5 million CSR Fund dedicated to combat COVID-19.

(“Caldas Gold”) (TSX-V: CGC) for the Marmato Project located in Colombia. Under the terms of the PMPA³, the Company will acquire 6.5% of the gold production and 100% of the silver production until 190,000 ounces of gold and 2.15 million ounces of silver have been delivered, after which the stream drops to 3.25% of the gold production and 50% of the silver production for the life of mine.

Financial Review

Revenues

Revenue was $307 million in the third quarter of 2020 representing a 37% increase from the third quarter of 2019 due primarily to a 35% increase in the average realized gold equivalent² price; and a 2% increase in the number of gold equivalent² ounces sold.

Costs and Expenses

Average cash costs¹ in the third quarter of 2020 were $445 per gold equivalent² ounce as compared to $417 in Q3 2019. This resulted in a cash operating margin¹ of $1,506 per gold equivalent² ounce sold, an increase of 47% as compared with Q3 2019.

Balance Sheet (at September 30, 2020)

•

Approximately $210 million of cash on hand.

Third Quarter Asset Highlights

Salobo: In the third quarter of 2020, Salobo produced 63,400 ounces of attributable gold, a decrease of approximately 14% relative to the third quarter of 2019 due to lower grades. According to Vale S.A.’s (“Vale”) Third Quarter 2020 Performance Report, physical completion of the Salobo III mine expansion was 62% at the end of the third quarter. Vale reports that the expansion remains on track to start up in the first half of 2022.

San Dimas: In the third quarter of 2020, San Dimas produced 9,200 ounces of attributable gold, a decrease of approximately 18% relative to the third quarter of 2019 primarily due to the impact of revising the silver to gold conversion ratio from 70:1 to 90:1 effective April 1, 2020, as per the PMPA⁴. The exchange ratio was reinstated to 70:1 during October 2020.

Antamina: In the third quarter of 2020, Antamina produced 1.5 million ounces of attributable silver, an increase of approximately 24% relative to the third quarter of 2019, primarily due to higher grades and throughput, partially offset by lower recovery.

Stillwater: In the third quarter of 2020, Stillwater produced 5,400 ounces of attributable palladium and 3,200 ounces of attributable gold, virtually unchanged relative to the third quarter of 2019. According to Sibanye-Stillwater Limited’s (“Sibanye-Stillwater”) Third Quarter 2020 Operating Update, a review of the Blitz project was conducted following the suspension of growth capital

activities due to COVID-19, and the project is now expected to reach a steady state by 2024, a delay of up to two years. Sibanye-Stillwater also reports that the Fill the Mill project at the East Boulder mine remains on schedule to be completed by the end of 2020.

Constancia: In the third quarter of 2020, Constancia produced 0.4 million ounces of attributable silver and 3,800 ounces of attributable gold, a decrease of approximately 37% and 27%, respectively, relative to the third quarter of 2019, primarily due to lower grades. As per Wheaton’s PMPA with Hudbay Minerals Inc. (“Hudbay”), the failure to achieve a minimum level of throughput at the Pampacancha deposit during 2019 entitles Wheaton to an additional 8,020 ounces of gold in 2020 (received in quarterly installments), of which 2,005 ounces of gold was received during the third quarter of 2020 and included as production. According to Hudbay’s Third Quarter MD&A, significant progress has been made on completing the Pampacancha individual land-user agreements and, as of September 30, 2020, approximately 79% of the land has been vacated and turned over to Hudbay. Hudbay expects a Pampacancha production start date of early 2021.

Other Gold: In the third quarter of 2020, total Other Gold attributable production was 7,100 ounces, an increase of approximately 66% relative to the third quarter of 2019, primarily due to the resumption of mining at the Minto mine.

Other Silver: In the third quarter of 2020, total Other Silver attributable production was 2.1 million ounces, virtually unchanged relative to the third quarter of 2019, as stronger attributable production at Aljustrel and Yauliyacu were offset by lower production at Zinkgruvan and Neves-Corvo.

Keno Hill Restart: Alexco Resource Corp reported on September 15, 2020, that progress on site-wide capital projects at the Keno Hill Silver District, including mill modifications and infrastructure improvements, continues to be on pace for completion with mill commissioning and production of silver concentrate in the fourth quarter of 2020.

Produced But Not Yet Delivered ⁵

As at September 30, 2020, payable ounces attributable to the Company produced but not yet delivered amounted to:

•

77,000 payable gold ounces, a decrease of 2,600 ounces during Q3 2020, primarily due to a reduction during the period relative to the Sudbury mines.

•

3.4 million payable silver ounces, an increase of 0.2 million ounces during Q3 2020, primarily due to an increase during the period relative to the Peñasquito mine partially offset by a reduction at the Zinkgruvan mine.

•

4,600 payable palladium ounces, a decrease of 300 ounces during Q3 2020.

Detailed mine-by-mine production and sales figures can be found in the Appendix to this press release and in Wheaton’s consolidated MD&A in the ‘Results of Operations and Operational Review’ section.

Community Support and Response Fund to Combat the COVID-19 Pandemic

In the second quarter of 2020, Wheaton announced the launch of a $5 million Community Support and Response Fund (the “CSR Fund”) to support global efforts to combat the COVID-19 pandemic and its impacts on our communities. The CSR Fund is designed to meet the immediate needs of the communities in which Wheaton operates and around the mines from which Wheaton receives precious metals. This fund is incremental to Wheaton’s already active Community Investment Program that currently provides support to over 50 programs in multiple communities around the world. As of September 30, 2020, the Company has made donations totalling approximately $3 million under this program.

²Commodity price assumptions for the gold equivalent production and sales in 2020 are $1,500 / ounce gold, $18 / ounce silver, and $2,000 / ounce palladium.

³Under the PMPA with Caldas Gold, the Company will pay a total cash consideration of $110 million, $38 million of which is payable upon closing and the remaining portion of which is payable during the construction of the Marmato Deep Zone project, subject to receipt of required permits and licenses, sufficient financing having been obtained to cover total expected capital expenditures, and other customary conditions. In addition, the Company will make ongoing payments equal to 18% of the spot gold and silver price until the market value of gold and silver delivered to the Company, net of the per ounce cash payment, exceeds the initial upfront cash deposit, and 22% of the spot gold and silver price thereafter.

⁴Under the terms of the PMPA, the Company is entitled to an amount equal to 25% of the payable gold production plus an additional amount of gold equal to 25% of the payable silver production converted to gold at a fixed gold to silver exchange ratio of 70:1 from the San Dimas mine. If the average gold to silver price ratio decreases to less than 50:1 or increases to more than 90:1 for a period of 6 months or more, then the “70” shall be revised to “50” or “90”, as the case may be, until such time as the average gold to silver price ratio is between 50:1 to 90:1 for a period of 6 months or more in which event the “70” shall be reinstated.

⁵Payable gold, silver and palladium ounces produced but not yet delivered are based on management estimates only and rely upon information provided by the owners and operators of mining operations and may be revised and updated in future periods as additional information is received.

1)	All figures in thousands except gold and palladium ounces produced.

Ounces produced represent the quantity of gold, silver and palladium contained in concentrate or doré prior to smelting or refining deductions. Production figures and average payable rates are based on information provided by the operators of the mining operations to which the mineral stream interests relate or management estimates in those situations where other information is not available. Certain production figures or payable rates may be updated in future periods as additional information is received.

3)	Comprised of the Coleman, Copper Cliff, Garson, Creighton and Totten gold interests.

Under the terms of the San Dimas PMPA, the Company is entitled to an amount equal to 25% of the payable gold production plus an additional amount of gold equal to 25% of the payable silver production converted to gold at a fixed gold to silver exchange ratio of 70:1 from the San Dimas mine. If the average gold to silver price ratio decreases to less than 50:1 or increases to more than 90:1 for a period of 6 months or more, then the “70” shall be revised to “50” or “90”, as the case may be, until such time as the average gold to silver price ratio is between 50:1 to 90:1 for a period of 6 months or more in which event the “70” shall be reinstated. Effective April 1, 2020, the fixed gold to silver exchange ratio was revised to 90:1. For reference, silver production from prior periods is as follows: Q3-2020 – 420,000 ounces; Q2-2020 – 276,000 ounces; Q1-2020 – 419,000 ounces; Q4-2019 – 415,000 ounces; Q3-2019 – 410,000 ounces; Q2-2019 – 401,000 ounces; Q1-2019 – 351,000 ounces; and Q4-2018 – 342,000 ounces.

5)	Comprised of the Stillwater and East Boulder gold and palladium interests.

6)	The Minto mine was placed into care and maintenance from October 2018 to October 2019.

7)	GEOs and SEOs, which are provided to assist the reader, are based on the following commodity price assumptions: $1,500 per ounce gold; $18.00 per ounce silver; and $2,000 per ounce palladium, consistent with those used in estimating the Company’s production guidance for 2020.

8)	Operations at these mines had been temporarily suspended during the second quarter of 2020 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. During the third quarter, all of the operations were restarted.

Non-IFRS Measures

Wheaton has included, throughout this document, certain non-IFRS performance measures, including (i) adjusted net earnings and adjusted net earnings per share; (ii) operating cash flow per share (basic and diluted); (iii) average cash costs of gold, silver and palladium on a per ounce basis; (iv) cash operating margin; and (v) net debt.

Adjusted net earnings and adjusted net earnings per share are calculated by removing the effects of the non-cash impairment charges, non-cash fair value (gains) losses and other one-time (income) expenses as well as the reversal of non-cash income tax expense (recovery) which is offset by income tax expense (recovery) recognized in the Statements of Shareholders’ Equity and OCI, respectively. The Company believes that, in addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with IFRS, management and certain investors use this information to evaluate the Company’s performance.

The following table provides a reconciliation of adjusted net earnings and adjusted net earnings per share (basic and diluted).


		Three Months Ended September 30

(in thousands, except for per share amounts)	2020		2019

Net earnings	$	149,875	$	75,960

Divided by:
Basic weighted average number of shares outstanding		449,125		446,802
Diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding		451,999		447,849


Equals:
Adjusted earnings per share - basic	$	0.338	$	0.156
Adjusted earnings per share - diluted	$	0.336	$	0.156

- 14 -

ii.

Operating cash flow per share (basic and diluted) is calculated by dividing cash generated by operating activities by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (basic and diluted). The Company presents operating cash flow per share as management and certain investors use this information to evaluate the Company’s performance in comparison to other companies in the precious metal mining industry who present results on a similar basis.

The following table provides a reconciliation of operating cash flow per share (basic and diluted).


	Three Months Ended September 30

(in thousands, except for per share amounts)	2020		2019

Cash generated by operating activities	$	228,099	$	142,300


Divided by:
Basic weighted average number of shares outstanding		449,125		446,802
Diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding		451,999		447,849


Equals:
Operating cash flow per share - basic	$	0.508	$	0.318
Operating cash flow per share - diluted	$	0.505	$	0.318

Average cash cost of gold, silver and palladium on a per ounce basis is calculated by dividing the total cost of sales, less depletion, by the ounces sold. In the precious metal mining industry, this is a common performance measure but does not have any standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS. In addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with IFRS, management and certain investors use this information to evaluate the Company’s performance and ability to generate cash flow.
