AGNICO EAGLE MINES LIMITED_December 31, 2024 ​ Exhibit 99.2 ​ Annual Audited ​ Consolidated ​ Financial Statements ​ ​ ​ (Prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards) ​ ​ ​ ​ ​
​ MANAGEMENT REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING Management of Agnico Eagle Mines Limited (“Agnico Eagle” or the “Company”) is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer and effected by the Company’s Board, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. The Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024. In making this assessment, the Company’s management used the criteria outlined by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued in 2013. Based on its assessment, management concluded that, as of December 31, 2024, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective. The effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024 has been audited by Ernst & Young LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report that appears herein. ​ Toronto, Canada By /s/ Ammar Al-Joundi February 13, 2025 ​ Ammar Al-Joundi ​ ​ President and Chief Executive Officer ​ ​ ​ ​ By /s/ Jamie Porter ​ ​ Jamie Porter ​ ​ Executive Vice-President, Finance and ​ ​ Chief Financial Officer ​ ​ ​ 2      AGNICO EAGLE     CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
​ REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Agnico Eagle Mines Limited Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Agnico Eagle Mines Limited (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2024, and 2023, the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company at December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (the “PCAOB”), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on the criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework), and our report dated February 13, 2025, expressed an unqualified opinion thereon. Basis for Opinion These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. Critical Audit Matter The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of the critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matter or on the account or disclosure to which it relates. ​ CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS     AGNICO EAGLE      3
​ ​ ​ ​      Impairment assessment for Goodwill Description of the Matter ​ At December 31, 2024, the carrying value of goodwill was $ 4,157.7 million. As required by IAS 36 Impairment of Assets, an entity assesses at least annually, or at any time if an indicator of impairment exists, whether there has been an impairment loss in the carrying value. As part of an impairment test, the Company calculates the estimated recoverable value of its CGU, requiring management to make significant assumptions with respect to discount rate, future gold price, production levels, future operating and capital costs, and net asset value (“NAV”) multiple. The Company discloses these significant judgements, estimates and assumptions in respect of impairment in Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements and the results of their analysis in Note 24. This matter was identified as a critical audit matter due to the significant estimation uncertainty and judgement applied by management in determining the recoverable amount, primarily due to the sensitivity of the underlying significant assumptions to the future cash flows and the effect changes in these assumptions would have on the recoverable amount. How We Addressed the Matter in Our Audit ​ Our procedures included obtaining an understanding, evaluating the design, and testing the operating effectiveness of controls over the Company’s impairment process. Our procedures also included, among other things, involving valuation specialists to evaluate the discount rate against current industry and economic trends, comparing future gold prices against market data including a range of analyst forecasts, comparing NAV multiples, where applicable, to the market information including analyst estimates, considering the characteristics of the assets, and performing sensitivity analyses over certain assumptions to assess the impact on the recoverable amounts. We tested the completeness, accuracy, and relevance of underlying data used in the Company’s models. We involved our mining specialists to assist in evaluating the methods and assumptions used by management’s specialists to estimate production levels. We also involved our mining specialists in evaluating the methods and assumptions employed by management’s specialists to develop operating and capital cost inputs that form the basis of cash flow estimates. ​ ​ ​ /s/ Ernst & Young LLP ​ Chartered Professional Accountants ​ Licensed Public Accountants ​ ​ We have served as the Company’s auditor since 1983.
