Akiba Leisman, President and CEO of Mako Mining (TSX.V:MKO – OTCQX:MAKOF), joins me to review the Q4 and full-year 2024 financial metrics and Q1 operations results from the San Albino Mine in Nicaragua, along with some residual leaching from the recently acquired Moss Mine in Arizona. We also unpack the anticipated mining to begin at the Moss Mine in late May, and what to anticipate for the several months of ramp up of increased production. Additionally, we delve into the next key steps for derisking and development work at the Eagle Mountain Gold Project in Guyana to be in production there about 2 years out. This is a longer-format interview where we get into many nuances of operations in all 3 jurisdictions. The Company's financial results for Q4 2024 reflect record gold sales of $28.9 million, which generated $14.7 million in Mine Operating Cash Flow (1) (4), and $4.7 million in Net Income after accruing a non-current deferred tax liability of $3.2 million due to greater than expected operating income consuming a greater than expected portion of the Company's deferred tax assets. The Company sold 10,888 oz of gold at an average price of $2,670 per oz with a $1,352 All-In Sustaining Cost ("AISC") ($/oz sold). Full-year 2024 adjusted EBITDA was US$42.2 million and earnings per share of US$0.27 from 39,001 ounces of gold sold at an average price of US$2,397/oz. Q1 2025 San Albino Operational Highlights 48,813 tonnes mined, containing 11,495 ounces ("oz") of gold ("Au") at an average grade of 7.32 grams per tonne ("g/t") Au and 12,036 oz of silver ("Ag") at 7.67 g/t Ag 53,551 tonnes milled containing 12,228 oz Au and 12,740 oz Ag grading 7.10 g/t Au and 7.40 g/t Ag. Q1 2025 Mako Financial Highlights Mako total gold sales of 10,817 oz Au for total revenue of $31.5 million in Q1 2025 San Albino Mine sales of 9,881 oz at $2,898 per ounce Moss Mine sales of 936 oz Au from residual leaching activities at $2,997 per ounce (this doesn't include 605 oz Au sold in 2025 prior to the acquisition of Moss Mine) Delivered 40,500 oz of silver as part of Sailfish Silver loan for a total of $1.3 million in Q1 2025 Interest payment of $0.3 million to Wexford under the Wexford loan Tax payment of $4.0 million in cash which was already accrued in Q4 2024 Akiba points out that the Moss mine has been producing gold throughout the Bankruptcy Process through its beneficiation facilities, but their team is going to start mining again starting at the end of May and it will take several months to charge up the leach pads once again. When the Moss Mine has been debottlenecked over time and is producing at the grade and rate they believe is possible, it could almost double their current production profile with approximately another 40,000 ounces of gold production per year in Arizona. Mako is also currently derisking their Eagle Mountain project in Guyana, and working on the next key deliverable having started the process for their EIA permit. Once it is received back and a construction decision is made, there will be roughly a 1 year build, and then production is slated for Q2 of 2027 at an estimated 65,000 ounces per year. When this added to the production out of Nicaragua and Arizona there is a pathway to growing into a mid-tier gold producer. If you have any further questions for Akiba regarding Mako Mining, then please email me at Shad@kereport.com. In full disclosure, Shad is a shareholder of Mako Mining at the time of this recording.

Mark Brennan, Founder, CEO, and Director of Cerrado Gold Inc (TSX.V: CERT) (OTCQX: CRDOF), joins me to review the Q4 and full-year 2024 operations and financials at Minera Don Nicolas in Argentina, the transformative acquisition underway of Ascendant Resources and the value proposition at the Lagoa Salgada VMS Project in Portugal, along with the further value and optionality at the Mont Sorcier Iron-Vanadium project in Quebec. Q4/24 and Annual Minera Don Nicholas Financial and Operating Highlights: Production of 10,431 GEO in Q4 and Annual production of 54,494 GEO Adjusted EBITDA of $4.5 million in Q4 and US$24.4 million for the year excluding assets sales and Option payment proceeds. Received $34 million in Asset sale and Option payment proceeds in Q4: Received $49 million for the full year with up to $25 million ($15 million guaranteed) due in the coming years. AISC of $1,953 during Q4 vs $1,594 in Q4/23 due to lower production levels and ongoing inflationary pressures in Argentina Received Asset Sale and Option payments totaling $34 MM during the quarter, significantly strengthening the balance sheet. Focus remains on ramping up heap leach production to 4,000 - 4,500 GEO per month Mark and I review of their Minera Don Nicolas producing gold project in Argentina, and how the production profile can grow by eventually going underground, as well as finding more satellite open-pits at surface. The higher gold prices are allowing for a faster repayment of debt along with an aggressive exploration program underway in 2025 to expand resources at depth and at key surface targets. Operational results for the fourth quarter demonstrated a decrease in production relative to Q4/23 as high-grade ore to the CIL plant declined as mining from the Calandrias Norte pit was completed, and as the operation transitioned to focus on heap leach production. With higher gold prices, the CIL plant is expected to continue processing low grade stockpiles through Q2/25 when it will be blended with new high-grade material from initial underground mining feed from Q3/25 onward. The ramp up of heap leach operations continues to improve as crushing capacity continued to climb with production of 5,956 GEO during the quarter. Next we unpack the ongoing transaction to acquire Ascendant Resources Inc. (TSX: ASND) for their 80% interest in the robust Lagoa Salgada VMS Project with a Post-tax NPV of US$147 million and a 39% IRR in current Feasibility Study. The vote is next week and this Project adds both substantial precious metals resources along with critical minerals exposure (34% silver & Gold, 30% Zinc, 15% copper, 14% lead, 7% tin) to the future production profile. Project economics studies anticipate lowest cost quartile production with US$0.59/lb Zinc Equivalent All in sustaining cost (AISC) for the first 5 years. Mark also highlights how there is extensive exploration potential to keep expanding resources at this Project. There will be an optimized Feasibility Study due in Q3, construction decision by year end 2025 and initial production expected in second half of 2027. We wrap up discussing the underappreciated value and ongoing derisking work that is moving towards an updated economic study at the Mont Sorcier Iron-Vanadium in Quebec. Recent metallurgical test work, announced on May 1st has reaffirmed the potential to produce high grade and high purity iron concentrate grading in excess of 67% iron with silica and alumina content below 2.3%. More ongoing test work and improvements to the overall process design will be at the core of the NI 43-101 Bankable Feasibility Study ("BFS") which is targeted to be completed by the end of Q1 2026. If you have questions for Mark regarding Cerrado Gold, then please email those to me at Shad@kereport.com.

Eric Sterner is surprised that Trump decided to negotiate tariffs with the whole world at once. If that's dealt with, though, he thinks consumers will keep spending at “healthy levels,” and points to tax cuts and deregulation in the latter half of the year getting the market “back on track.” He likes utilities, health care, and financials, arguing that they're the most insulated from tariffs.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

In this week's Flagship Flashback episode of the Wade Keller Pro Wrestling Podcast from five years ago (4-23-2020), PWTorch editor Wade Keller was joined by special guest Brandon Thurston from Wrestlenomics.com and the Wrestlenomics Podcast. Thurston has focused for years on WWE's finances, and today was perhaps the most anticipated and consequential financial release day for WWE for a wide array of reasons. They discuss COVID-19 ramifications, key metrics on WrestleMania when it comes to WWE Network subscriptions and social media, WWE's roster cutbacks and its impact on WWE's finances, how Vince McMahon's role on the Investors Conference call changed without longtime co-presidents Michelle Wilson and George Barrios, McMahon saying WWE might never be in the live event business again even after COVID-19 crisis passes, how an elimination of North American non-TV house shows could change WWE's profitability and why some of the current data is deceptive, the magic cleaner Triple H referenced that is helping keep wrestlers safe from the coronavirus, and more. If you've been looking for an in-depth overview and understanding of WWE's financial situation in the midst of the coronavirus and analysis of their framing of their current situation, Thurston provides over 90 minutes of insight and digestible explanations on where WWE stands and how the future looks.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/wade-keller-pro-wrestling-podcast--3076978/support.

Intel (INTC) reported high-single digit growth in its foundry and data center businesses, but George Tsilis thinks the company needs much more for a clean turnaround. A wide range in 2Q revenue guidance is a major concern to George, who points out the company's $50 billion debt. However, he believes Intel still offers quality technology, the company just needs a plan to stronger profitability.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

March 2025 was a good financial month, but before we get into that, Craig and I talk about one of our trailers being rejected. It was because of some minor damage that had happened a while ago and hadn't been an issue, so why the rejection all of the sudden? Who knows. I'm also back in the dispatching saddle again. It has been while since I have done that job full time and let's just say, I'm a little rusty. What To Expect From Episode 177 Last month I said February was a pleasant surprise, March was an even more pleasant surprise. Let's take a look at the numbers: Total miles ran– 115,070 Deadhead miles– 7,746 (6.7%) Total revenue- $246,412.65 All-in rate-per-mile- $2.14 Haulin Assets had a profit of $49,849.00. The best month in over a year and the second best month since March of 2022. I hope it's a sign of things to come. The P&L was pretty normal, but here are the things we talk about. Revenue was strong Manageable fuel, 27.1% No insurance payment
Busy seasons can feel like proof that everything is working—revenue is up, new clients are rolling in, and the momentum feels unstoppable. But without intention, those same highs can lead to overspending, rushed decisions, and burnout. Keila shares how to use times of abundance to strengthen your business: building cash reserves, hiring strategically, maintaining consistent marketing, and protecting your team's capacity. It's a reminder that sustainable success isn't just about surviving the slow seasons—it's about being smart when things are good, too.(00:00) - Introduction and Recap (01:03) - Navigating Busy Periods (02:50) - Building Financial Reserves (03:37) - Smart Team Management (05:01) - Securing Access to Capital (05:40) - Consistent Marketing Strategies (06:58) - Staying on Top of Financials (07:45) - Avoiding Overextension (08:47) - Reflecting on Personal Experiences (10:32) - Client Strategies for Stability Connect with Keila!LinkedIn - www.linkedin.com/in/keilahilltrawickWebsite - www.krht.coTwitter - x.com/littlefishcpaMore About Little Fish AccountingLearn more about Little Fish's suite of services at www.littlefishaccounting.com.Follow Little Fish Accounting at instagram.com/littlefishaccounting

Cost of Sales was $5.1 million for the six-month period ended December 31, 2024, approximately $22.40 per AgEq ounce sold, representing $20.95 per AgEq ounce sold in Q4 ($2.8 million) and $24.13 per AgEq ounce sold in Q3 ($2.3 million). Gross profit was $1.36 million for FY 2024. Alex then lays out the envisioned plan is to run the mill at 500 tpd most of next year, at the slated commercial production throughput. However, he then also shares the pathway forward where a modest amount of equipment can be purchased and installed to grow the mill throughput to 650 TPD in 2026, and then all the way up to 1,000+ TPD by the end of 2027. In addition to the potential of growth through production, we also discuss the leverage that a silver and gold producer like Sierra Madre will have to the potential of rising metals prices in 2025 and 2026. Next we shift over into the larger growth vision of the company, as it will turn it's it focus to exploring this district scale land package the end of next year, funded through organically generated revenues. The property hosts 8 different past-producing mines, with the first 2 priorities being to explore around the El Rincon and Mina de Agua mines. Additionally, there is a non-compliant 17 million ounce historic resource at the Nazareno Mine, and also solid underground infrastructure at the nearby high-grade Coloso Mine, that First Majestic had put quite a bit of sunk cost into already. Moving the Coloso Mine back into production will be another near-term area of future expansion, which could see supplementary production complimenting the current production coming out of La Guitarra.

Watch the video version on YouTube. Financials, the second largest sector in the S&P 500, has had its fair share of ups and downs in recent years. As the Federal Reserve kicked off its aggressive rate hiking campaign in 2022, the yield curve inverted, loan growth slowed and M&A activity plummeted, all of which hampered earnings growth. Then, in March 2023, the failures of several U.S. regional banks sparked concerns about the health of the banking sector and commercial real estate market. The dust from this crisis gradually settled, which, in conjunction with Fed rate cuts and a resilient consumer, helped the sector gain over 30% in 2024. In fact, financial deregulation is now top of mind, with the Trump administration recently naming “regulatory dove” Michelle Bowman as the Federal Reserve's next Vice Chair of Supervision. Prospects for increased deregulation, in addition to trends in consumer spending, will be key themes moving forward. Companies in financials tend to be represented in the value style and can be a good complement to growth exposure, especially the Magnificent 7. On this episode of Insights Now, Gabriela Santos, is joined by Laura Huang, an equity research analyst covering financials at J.P. Morgan Asset Management, to discuss Laura's day-to-day, and what she is seeing across her sector.

In this episode of Shoot the Moon, Revenue Rocket's Mike Harvath, Matt Lockhart, and Ryan Barnett explore one of the most overlooked tension points in M&A: the financial document request.You've nailed the strategic and cultural fit — but when it comes time to share financials, things stall. Why? It often boils down to trust, financial hygiene, and timing.
If you've ever made a quick purchase that didn't quite align with your financial goals, you're not alone. It happens to the best of us! In this episode, Danielle Hayden, CPA and founder of Kickstart Accounting, Inc., tackles the challenge of impulse spending as an entrepreneur with a practical approach that's meant to empower you, not make you feel guilty. Whether you're a free spender, saver, perfectionist, or balance seeker, this episode is filled with strategies you can use to stay in control of your money, help curb those impulse purchases, and make smarter financial decisions that align with your goals, personality, and core values. Key Takeaways: Know Your Money Personality: Understanding whether you're a Free Spender, Saver, Perfectionist, or Balance Seeker can help you become more mindful of your financial habits and tailor your strategies accordingly. Step 1 - Budgeting as a Planning Tool: A budget isn't about restriction, it's your business's roadmap. Setting aside time to plan expenses helps you make smarter, more intentional decisions. Step 2 - Use the 48-Hour Rule: Delaying purchases by just two days can dramatically reduce impulse spending and give you space to assess alignment with your budget and goals. Step 3 - Don't Decide Based on Price Alone: The cheapest option isn't always the best fit. Consider alignment with your values, quality of service, and long-term ROI when choosing vendors. Step 4 - Review Existing Vendors First: Before jumping ship, explore whether your current tools or service providers can meet your evolving needs. Feedback and a simple conversation could reveal untapped value. Step 5 - Plan for Impulse Spending: Set aside an “allowance” in your budget for unplanned yet exciting opportunities. This helps you stay flexible without blowing up your financial goals. Step 6 - Avoid Last-Minute Decisions: Waiting until the final hour leads to rushed (and usually regrettable) choices. Plan ahead for renewals, tax time, and big expenses. Step 7 - Review Financials Monthly: Regularly reviewing your KSA Snapshot and financials keeps you grounded in reality, reveals patterns, and helps you make better decisions month over month. Bonus - Involve Your Money Team: Share your goals with your financial team so they can hold you accountable, offer insights, and help course-correct when needed. Topics Discussed: How Your Money Personality Type Affects Your Spending (00:00:16 – 00:02:12) Why a Budget is Necessary to Help with Spending Freedom (00:02:12 – 00:03:02) Ways to Help Curb Impulse Buying (00:03:02 – 00:08:38) Planning for Unexpected Opportunities or “Allowance Budgeting” (00:08:38 – 00:09:58) Using Monthly Financial Reviews to Keep Your Spending Aligned with Your Goals (00:12:01 - 00:13:40) Resources: Money Personality Quiz | kickstartaccountinginc.com/quiz Book a Call with Kickstart Accounting, Inc.: https://www.kickstartaccountinginc.com/book Connect with Kickstart Accounting, Inc.: Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/Kickstartaccounting YouTube | https://www.youtube.com/@businessbythebooks Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/kickstartaccountinginc

February 2025 was a pretty eventful and interesting month. We had a truck get in a little skirmish with a BMW. No one was hurt and the vehicles weren't too bad off either, but it was one of those incidents that really make you scratch your head. We'll share some video on social media, I'd love to hear your opinions. I'll just ask the questions, when merging onto the freeway, how many vehicles can squeeze in front of a truck? What To Expect From Episode 175 February was a pleasant surprise. I really hope it's an indication of things to come, because I am really getting tired of low profits. Let's take a look at the numbers: Total miles ran– 103,728 Deadhead miles– 6,730 (6.5%) Total revenue- $227,885.97 All-in rate-per-mile- $2.20 Haulin Assets had a profit of $30,707.01. The best month of profits we have had in a very long time and really knocking on the door of being cashflow positive.
