Only 1 U.S.-Listed ETF Providing Pure-Play 2 Exposure to Silver Miners and Physical Silver
Rapidly Gains Assets
Sprott Asset Management USA, Inc. today announced that the Sprott Silver Miners & Physical Silver ETF (Nasdaq: SLVR) (the "ETF" or "SLVR") reached $500 million (USD) in assets under management on December 11, 2025, less than a year after its launch on January 15, 2025. SLVR is the only 1 ETF focused on providing pure-play 2 exposure to silver miners and physical silver, likely an undervalued precious metal with evolving industrial and technological uses. The ETF draws on Sprott Asset Management's extensive experience in the precious metals and critical materials sectors.
"Silver prices set new all-time highs this week as demand continues to grow and supply is expected to be in a deficit for the seventh consecutive year. Investors are turning to silver miners for leverage to the price of silver as mining profitability continues to improve with higher silver prices," said John Ciampaglia, CEO of Sprott Asset Management ("Sprott"). "We're pleased that our Sprott Silver Miners & Physical Silver ETF has provided pure-play exposure to silver and its miners, enabling investors to gain from these market dynamics."
The Sprott Silver Miners & Physical Silver ETF seeks to provide investment results that, before fees and expenses, correspond generally to the total return performance of the Nasdaq Sprott Silver Miners™ Index (NSLVR™) by investing at least 80% of its total assets in securities of the Index. The Nasdaq Sprott Silver Miners Index™ is designed to track the performance of a selection of securities in the silver industry, including silver producers, developers and explorers, and physical silver.

IMPORTANT DISCLOSURES
An investor should consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses of each fund carefully before investing. To obtain a fund's Prospectus, which contains this and other information, contact your financial professional, call 1.888.622.1813 or visit SprottETFs.com. Read the Prospectus carefully before investing.
Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) are considered to have continuous liquidity because they allow for an individual to trade throughout the day, which may indicate higher transaction costs and result in higher taxes when fund shares are held in a taxable account.
The funds are non-diversified and can invest a greater portion of assets in securities of individual issuers, particularly those in the natural resources and/or precious metals industry, which may experience greater price volatility. Relative to other sectors, natural resources and precious metals investments have higher headline risk and are more sensitive to changes in economic data, political or regulatory events, and underlying commodity price fluctuations. Risks related to extraction, storage and liquidity should also be considered.
Shares are not individually redeemable. Investors buy and sell shares of the funds on a secondary market. Only "authorized participants" may trade directly with the fund, typically in blocks of 10,000 shares.
