Factors that could cause actual results or events to differ materially from current expectations include, among other things, without limitation, failure to meet expected, estimated or planned gold production, unexpected increases in all-in sustaining costs or other costs, unexpected increases in capital expenditures and exploration expenditures, variation in the mineral content within the material identified as Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves from that predicted, changes in development or mining plans due to changes in logistical, technical or other factors, the possibility that future exploration results will not be consistent with the Company's expectations, changes in the Company's relationship with Sumitomo, instability in financial markets, currency exchange risk, changes in world gold markets, cybersecurity risks, and other risks disclosed in IAMGOLD's most recent Form 40-F and Annual Information Form and in IAMGOLD's management's discussion and analysis of financial position and results of operations for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024 on file with the SEC and Canadian securities regulatory authorities.
