Alex Langer, President and CEO of Sierra Madre Gold And Silver (TSXV: SM) (OTCQX: SMDRF), joins me to review the Q1 2025 operations and financial metrics showing profitability from the very first quarter of commercial production at the La Guitarra Mine and processing plant, in Mexico.  We also look a number of future development and exploration value drivers for the Company across their district-scale land package.    Q1 2025 Highlights   Net Revenues: Silver revenues for the quarter totalled $2.34 million ($31.13 per ounce) and gold revenues totalled $2.89 million ($2,828 per ounce). The Company sold 75,137 ounces of silver ("Ag") and 1,022 ounces of gold ("Au") or 165,093 silver equivalent ("AgEq") ounces, based on the ratio of Au and Ag prices realized for each shipment in the period. Cost of sales was $3.6 million, approximately $21.84 per AgEq ounce sold. All-in-sustaining costs per AgEq ounce sold of $28.98 per ounce, compared to $32.18 in Q4 2024. Gross Profit was $1.2 million. Cash provided by operating activities was $535,000. Current assets, including cash, totaled $4.3 million at March 31, 2025, up from $3.5 million in Q4 2024.   Q1 2025 Operational Details   Mine Operations: Milled 39,167 tonnes of material, silver recoveries averaged 79.21% while gold recoveries averaged 78.77%. Production: Produced 70,176 ounces of silver and 1,001 ounces of gold. Coloso Mining: On April 29 2025, Sierra Madre announced the start of underground mining at the Coloso mine within the Guitarra Complex. The estimated resource grades at Coloso are significantly higher in both silver and gold compared to the Guitarra mine veins. During the ramp up of Coloso mining, various blending percentages for mill feed will be tested to ascertain best recovery procedures.     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.     If you have any questions for Alex regarding Sierra Madre Gold and Silver, then please email them to me at either Shad@kereport.com.   In full disclosure, Shad is a shareholder of Sierra Madre Gold & Silver at the time of this recording.   Click here to follow along with the latest news from Sierra Madre Gold & Silver

Future Forward: Embedded Optionality in Market Innovation As technology, regulatory changes and market dynamics continue to evolve, the options market is on the brink of significant transformation.

Imagine an accounts‑receivable clerk clicking through four different systems just to finish one routine task. Chad Gold sees that bottleneck instantly. Fullstory's newly launched Workforce product maps every mouse‑stroke of such employee journeys, then surfaces friction points so companies can “make them more productive, so they can do even more value‑added things,” Gold tells us.The scene encapsulates the finance leader's thesis: data depth wins. “The companies that have the capabilities to capture the most comprehensive sets of data in a meaningful way are going to win,” he says. That conviction drew Gold—now in his fourth CFO chapter—to the Atlanta‑based behavioral‑data platform. Fullstory records the complete digital experience of each customer, from e‑commerce clicks to SaaS workflows, and feeds the corpus into AI models that flag churn risk or recommend instant actions, such as sending a coupon to a wavering shopper. The result drives revenue and reduces churn, he tells us.For its part, Fullstory has raised capital rounds through Series D and counts Kleiner Perkins, Stripes, Premier, Salesforce Ventures, GV and Dell Technologies among its backers, he tells us. Independent directors Ryan Barreto of Sprout Social and former Atlassian CFO Alex Estevez deepen the bench. After 22 years in finance, Gold values “lines, not dots”—long‑term relationships that provide partnership, not just cash. By pairing that philosophy with a platform built to illuminate every click, he aims to turn invisible friction—whether customer or employee—into the next chapter of growth. Stakeholders across the business will feel the lift, Gold predicts.

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.   In full disclosure, Shad is a shareholder of Cerrado Gold at the time of this recording, and may choose to buy or sell shares at any time.   Click here to see the latest news from Cerrado Gold.

Our guests on this episode of Data Driven Finance are Stephen Fishman and Matt McLarty, authors of the book “Unbundling the Enterprise – APIs, Optionality, and the Science of Happy Accidents.” Stephen is North America Field CTO at Boomi and a Strategic Advisor at Revenium, while Matt is Boomi's Chief Technology Officer. There's a lot in the book about APIs, what they can power, and how they can be leveraged to create the experiences we'll be experiencing ahead. Topics covered include: What finance businesses should know about what APIs can do that tech experts already know? Why companies who leveraged APIs early rapidly became some of the biggest in the world. Did you know Google Maps never intended to make their API available to third party developers? Hear why they did. Who are the financial businesses that gave themselves an advantage years ago? What does it mean to “unbundle the enterprise”? How are financial institutions doing in terms of awareness and adoption of API opportunities? What is capability capitalization? Why it's better for finserv companies to go on offense with optionality than to engage in “reluctant compliance” with regulations. The three methodologies financial businesses need for an effective API strategy. The value in data being non-fungible, non-rivalrous, and experience-dependent. What are the risks of this kind of API-driven digital transformation? Helpful Links Stephen Fiscman Matt McLarty Unbundling the Enterprise book Boomi Yodlee

So for example let us say that you own a single-family home property whatever, you don't really 100% owned, you're just borrowing it from the federal government, the local city government etc. And you're paying a huge state tax fee local fee tax fee etc. Also, vehicles automobiles cars etc., as long as you're sooner or later taking some sort of public Road Highway, freeway etc., you don't really 100% on your car either because you're just kind of leasing the rights to use your vehicle on public roads, as long as you had to pay some sort of DMV fee and sticker, you never really 100% own your vehicle. And also, you still have to pay car insurance, like forever. And once again, vehicle registration fees. Even the fees even though the fees are not super super high, you still gotta pay something. I think also one of the soccer fallacies is that some people fall victim to this notion of somehow like you buy some sort of RV or truck or converted Mercedes sprinter van and you could somehow turn it into like a mobile house or a mobile RV, and then you could just finally become free travel through the states whatever, etc.… But still you're kind of a slave because you still have to find somewhere to park at night, you often had to pay a fee to park somewhere, And also, more private things like you gotta pay for sanitation to plumb out your vehicle, you still need to buy food and stuff, etc. This is where I still think it is wiser to just rent an apartment and somewhere desirable where you could just walk everywhere because once again,Americans we were romanticize the idea other great American road trip and being on the road, but still… The ideal strategy is to spend like close to 0% of your time in a car or a vehicle, and you try to instead, spend about 100% of your time walking around outside in the direct light or the direct sun. So the ideal goal is to find a place or a local or a city or neighborhood or area that you absolutely love like for me in Culver City, the arts district, and you could just 100% pedestrian walk yourself everywhere, just jump on the metro E line if you want, and just go on a drive if you want.  And once again, location location location location location. I still cannot stress this enough; because of the laws of physics, Los Angeles, Los Angeles traffic; still the most intelligent strategy in life is to find the best location absolutely, in which you never have to drive more than five minutes a day. Or driving just becomes an optional thing; **you could actually live a virtuous 100% pedestrian lifestyle.**

“The OOOps methodology from the science of happy accidents are optionality, opportunism, and optimization.” Stephen Fishman and Matt McLarty are the authors of “Unbundling the Enterprise: APIs, Optionality, and the Science of Happy Accidents”, a book from IT Revolution. In this episode, we discuss the transformative power of APIs, the importance of optionality in technology and business, and the intriguing science of ‘happy accidents'. We delve into the “OOOps” of the science of happy accidents, which are optionality through API unbundling, opportunism through value dynamics, and optimization through feedback loops. Stephen and Matt share real-world examples of how companies like Amazon, Google, and Cox Automotive have successfully unbundled their enterprises and leveraged optionality for growth and innovation. Also, hear the story and impact of Jeff Bezos's legendary API mandate at Amazon, which revolutionized Amazon to become the giant it is now. Towards the end, we discuss the role of AI in the future of work and how we can use AI along with APIs to embrace more optionality and create more business value. Listen to the full episode to learn more about how you can apply these concepts to your digital transformation journey and benefit from the power of APIs and optionality.   Listen out for: Career Turning Points - [00:01:51] “Unbundling the Enterprise” Book - [00:05:21] Amazon API Revolution - [00:08:39] What Drove Jeff Bezos's Mandate - [00:14:10] Optionality Through API Unbundling - [00:17:36] Happy Accidents - [00:23:59] Opportunism Through Value Dynamics - [00:26:59] Value Dynamics - [00:30:55] Optimization Through Feedback Loops - [00:38:03] Embracing AI - [00:45:24] 4 Tech Lead Wisdom - [00:52:02] _____ Stephen Fishman's BioStephen Fishman (Fish) is the NA Field CTO for Boomi.

Mark Brennan,  Founder, CEO, and Director of Cerrado Gold Inc (TSX.V: CERT) (OTCQX: CRDOF), joins me to review the sale of the Monte Do Carmo asset to Hochschild Mining in March of this year for $60Million US,  a production and exploration update at Minera Don Nicolas in Argentina, and the optionality the company has in the value in the Mont Sorcier Iron-Vanadium project in Quebec.   We start off digging into the market conditions in Argentina the end of last year and into early this year, which squeezed the company financially and resulted in the sale of the Monte Do Carmo asset to Hochschild Mining PLC (LSE: HOC) (OTCQX: HCHDF).  Mark outlines that this asset sale is going to be bringing in a significant about of cash into the company this year, in addition to more staggered cash payments the next 2 years.  This puts the company in a unique position to be able to deploy this cash into the exploration and expansion of their Minera Don Nicolas producing gold project in Argentina, as well as more derisking and an updated economic study at the Mont Sorcier Iron-Vanadium.   He points out the value of having all that cash may provide optionality to partnering on other projects as well, and potential value drivers.   Click here to see the latest news from Cerrado Gold.

Aren't acronyms fun? I sure think so, and this one in particular - YATA - is one with which near every person is familiar … though most tend to avoid admitting it. So as usual, I will start by outing myself and admitting it. Sometimes, I am. What does that mean? You'll just have to listen to this episode to find out what this acronym stands for … and why it relates to the preposterous idea of lone wolves. And if after this episode you're ready to dig in deeper on the topic, I was interviewed by Elisa Camahort-Page and Jory DesJardin on their #Optionality podcast and you can listen to that here. In a world where what passes for radical honesty usually means someone is just letting things fly outta their pie-hole without much care for others, it's time for radically authentic conversation. Conscious communication is simple, but often isn't easy. That's why Cathy Brooks created Talk, Unleashed – a weekly podcast of radically honest conversation about — everything. Whether her own musings or in conversation with industry leaders, each episode invites curiosity.  Curiosity not about what people do, but why they do it. Who they are and what makes them tick. It's about digging underneath to reveal the thing that is most true - that we are more alike than we are not. A mix of solo episodes where Cathy shares her insights and experience or Cathy engaged in conversation with fascinating humans doing amazing things. No matter the format - it's unvarnished, radically honest and entirely unleashed.  This podcast compliments Unleashed Leadership, the coaching business through which Cathy works with symphony orchestras, corporate clients, and individuals to help them unleash and untether their leadership and connect with others in a way that truly engages. #YATA #lonewolf #brutalhonesty #radicalhonesty #consciouscommunication #leadership #Conversation #connection #TalkUnleashed #fiercecompassion #UnleashedConversation #UnleashedLeadership #FixYourEndofTheLeash

And I took a course, learned how to read candlestick charts, lost a bunch of money, and realized I hate day trading, man. It's a lot of stress.” - 00:01:21 JP Albano“And that's why the wealthy favor real estate so much is because of how the tax law is created to incentivize real estate investing, real estate, and things like that. - 00:44:18 JP Albano“So the cash equity needed to, you know, get deals is a bit more, but that kind of balances out because interest rates are higher. So the money that you're, the loan that you're going to pay on that money is going to be more expensive. So maybe you're better off putting some more cash in there, a little lower leverage, that's okay. That's being prudent.” - 00:45:29 JP AlbanoSaaS Leadership LessonsTransitioning from one successful career to another requires openness and adaptability: Recognizing when it's time to transition and being open to new opportunities.

Tom welcomes back Matthew Pipenburg from Von Greyerz Gold Switzerland to discusses the economic climate. Matt emphasizes the importance of understanding historical context and separating facts from biases. He believes that common sense reveals issues in various markets, leading to a potential debt crisis causing inflation and currency destruction. Trust is also eroding, particularly in US Treasuries and the US dollar narrative. He advises preparing for these changes as they're already happening. Matt discuss the comparison of current debt levels with those after World War II, acknowledging significant differences: America moving from a creditor to a debtor role. Raising interest rates to combat inflation is less effective when public debt reaches unprecedented levels. Central banks cannot export inflation like they used to, making such actions impossible without causing unpayable interest expenses. Alarming trends in bankruptcies, unemployment, and overvalued markets are evidence of economic instability due to unsustainable debt levels. Matt also discusses the risks associated with junk bonds, including their inability to refinance at higher interest rates and potential defaults. High yield bonds offer little yield for significant risk. Private credit pools, which hold bad loans, are a major concern due to their lack of transparency and potential value distortion. Central banks' shift towards gold as a savings instrument is discussed, with physical gold replacing U.S. Treasuries as a reserve asset. Central banks in the East have been net buyers of gold since 2014. Matt advises individuals to save in gold instead of the US dollar for long-term value preservation. Gold significantly outperforms various assets in relation to U.S. Treasuries, making it an attractive hedge against inflation and debt. The conversation concludes with Matt emphasizing self-education, forming opinions on the current economic climate, and considering long-term investments in real assets and commodities, particularly physical gold as a hedge against inflation and debt.

Have non-alcoholic cocktail menus gone the way of the BlackBerry? Milan Martin thinks so, and he has good reason to believe it. Milan is the founder and CEO of The Free Spirits Company, a brand of hand-crafted, non-alcoholic spirits and RTD cocktails. Founded in 2020, the company markets zero-proof bourbon, gin, tequila, amaro and vermouth, along with a canned margarita and Kentucky mule. Milan's vision is not to replace spirits from consumers' drinking occasions, but to empower them – and bartenders – with the optionality to create no- or low-proof cocktails, depending on their mood and setting.  Free Spirits products are produced using a process it describes as “distillate reconstruction.” The company sources natural ingredients – American white oak, European juniper, and Mexican blue agave, to name a few – and distills their essences while reconstructing the nose, flavor notes and mouthfeel of traditional spirits. Vitamins B3 and B6 are also added to enhance the consumption experience. In our interview, Milan talks about the “aha” moment that led him to create The Free Spirits Co., why flavor improvement is a process, how to convince someone who didn't like a product the first time to give it a second try, and why he's bullish on the brand's RTD cocktails. Show notes: 0:35: Community, Class, Clouds and Cookies – BevNET's director of community Melissa Traverse joins the show and chats about recent and upcoming episodes of Community Call and the hosts collectively talk about valuable content for early-stage founders at BevNET Live Summer 2024. They also munch on mood-boosting, freshly baked cookies (and some crispy ones, too) and highlight Cloud Water's new look energy drinks along with a new flavor variety for a sparkling tea brand. 22:20: Interview: Milan Martin, Founder & CEO, The Free Spirits Co. – Milan shares recommendations for Philadelphia restaurants, before Taste Radio editor Ray Latif shares an anecdote about the popularity of non-alcoholic cocktails in Boston. Milan explains why he undertook “zero” market research when developing Free Spirits, why cocktails generate irrational behavior (but not in the way you're thinking) and the most common reasons that people buy his products. He also quotes Netflix founder Reid Hoffman when discussing flavor development, why niche retailers are a big part of the brand's consumer trial strategy and why building strong relationships with the hospitality industry has helped the company compete with deep-pocketed brands Brands in this episode: The Free Spirits Co., Fancypants Baking Co., Doughpamine, Bang, Oathaus, Honey Mama's, Cloud Water, Sarilla, Seedlip, Ritual Zero

“Investing in the gold sector over the cycle has not proven to be a successful investment strategy. So, you do not want to invest in the entire sector. You want to be selective in the [gold] stocks you pick, whether the gold price is rising or not.

He has dedicated the past decade to financing natural resource projects while serving as Chief Investment Officer and Portfolio Manager at Galileo Global Equity Advisors, and as an analyst at US Global Investors.
