Colm Howlin, CFO, Commented

“The nine months to 30 September 2025 have delivered strong financial and operational performance for the Company placing us firmly on track to meet full-year guidance. Gold production for the year to date totalled 32,634 ounces, a 19% increase compared with the same period of 2024.

The continued strong operational performance combined with higher average gold prices has driven a 95% year-on-year increase in EBITDA to $48.2 million and the Company closed the quarter with a cash balance of $38.8 million, up from $22.2 million at 31 December 2024. Net cash inflow from operations for the nine-month period, after mine development expenditure of $4.1 million, was $34.3 million, highlighting the strong cash-generating capacity of the business.

All-In Sustaining Cost (AISC) averaged $1,816 per ounce for the period, reflecting the impact of ongoing development investment and inflationary cost pressures. We continue to strengthen our balance sheet with margins remaining robust, supported by firm gold prices, higher production volumes, and disciplined cost control.

Post-tax profit for the nine months was $34.9 million, equating to earnings of 46.10 cents per share, compared with $17.8 million and 23.55 cents per share in 2024.

In parallel, exploration and resource development drilling continued across both the Palito Complex and Coringa, with approximately 27,937 metres completed year to date. Early results are encouraging, supporting the Company’s objective of increasing resources to the 1.5-2.0Moz range in the oncoming years as part of Phase 2 of our growth strategy.

With strong cash generation, a solid balance sheet, and a clear focus on operational excellence, the Company remains well positioned to close 2025 with continued momentum and to deliver further growth into 2026.”

Overview of the financial results

In the first nine months of 2025, the Group has reported revenue and operating costs related to the sale of 32,106 ounces (32,634 ounces produced). This compares to sales reported of 28,912 ounces in the first nine months of 2024. Reported revenues and costs reflect the ounces sold in each period and as a result total costs for the nine-month period are higher than for the corresponding period of 2024.

On 7 January 2024, the Group completed a $5.0 million unsecured loan arrangement with Brazilian bank Itau which carried a fixed interest coupon of 8.47 per cent. The loan was repaid as a bullet payment on 6 January 2025. On 22 January 2025, the Group completed a further $5.0 million unsecured loan arrangement with a different Brazilian bank (Santander) which carries a fixed interest coupon of 6.16 per cent. This loan is repayable on 16 January 2026. The Company had a net cash balance at the end of Q3-2025 (after interest bearing loans and lease liabilities) of $33.0 million (31 December 2024: net cash $16.2 million).

The ore sorter at Coringa has now been operational for nine months and has performed exceptionally during this period. Benefiting from favourable economics, the ore sorter has been utilised to process low-grade ore that had been stockpiled since the commencement of operations at the mine, while higher-grade ROM has continued to be transported directly to the Palito Complex plant. As a result of this approach, gold production from Coringa is expected to exceed the original plan for the year.

Notes

  1. Basis of preparation

1. Basis of preparation
These interim condensed consolidated financial statements are for the three and nine-month periods ended 30 September 2025. Comparative information has been provided for the unaudited three and nine-month periods ended 30 September 2024 and, where applicable, the audited twelve-month period from 1 January 2024 to 31 December 2024. These condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all the disclosures that would otherwise be required in a complete set of financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the 2024 annual report.
The condensed consolidated financial statements for the periods have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 “Interim Financial Reporting” and the accounting policies are consistent with those of the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2024 and those envisaged for the financial statements for the year ending 31 December 2025.

The interim financial information has not been audited and does not constitute statutory accounts as defined in Section 434 of the Companies Act 2006. Whilst the financial information included in this announcement has been compiled in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) this announcement itself does not contain sufficient financial information to comply with IFRS. The Group statutory accounts for the year ended 31 December 2024 prepared in accordance with international accounting standards in conformity with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 have been filed with the Registrar of Companies. The auditor’s report on these accounts was unqualified. The auditor’s report did not contain a statement under Section 498 (2) or 498 (3) of the Companies Act 2006.

Accounting standards, amendments and interpretations effective in 2025
The Group has not adopted any standards or amendments in advance of their effective date. The following new amendment has been issued by the IASB and is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2025:

Amendments to IAS 21 – The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates: Lack of Exchangeability
The amendments provide guidance for determining the spot exchange rate when exchangeability between two currencies is lacking. They clarify when a currency is considered exchangeable and introduce a methodology for estimating an appropriate exchange rate when necessary. The Group does not expect a material impact on its financial statements from these amendments.

No other standards or amendments are expected to be effective in 2025.

Certain new accounting standards and interpretations have been published that are not mandatory for the current period and have not been early adopted. These standards are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s current or future reporting periods.

These financial statements do not constitute statutory accounts as defined in Section 434 of the Companies Act 2006.

(i)      Going concern


At 30 September 2025 the Group held cash of US$38.8 million which represents an increase of US$16.6 million compared to 31 December 2024.

On 7 January 2024, the Group completed a US$5.0 million unsecured loan arrangement with Brazilian bank Itau which carried a fixed interest coupon of 8.47 per cent. The loan was repaid as a bullet payment on 6 January 2025. On 22 January 2025, the Group completed a further US$5.0 million unsecured loan arrangement with a different Brazilian bank (Santander) which carries a fixed interest coupon of 6.16 per cent. This loan is repayable on 16 January 2026.

Management prepares, for Board review, regular updates of its operational plans and cash flow forecasts based on their best judgement of the expected operational performance of the Group and using economic assumptions that the Directors consider are reasonable in the current global economic climate. The current plans assume that during 2025 the Group will continue gold production from its Palito Complex operation as well as increase production from the Coringa mine and will be able to increase gold production to exceed the levels of 2024.

The Directors will limit the Group’s discretionary expenditures, when necessary, to manage the Group’s liquidity.

The Directors acknowledge that the Group remains subject to operational and economic risks and any unplanned interruption or reduction in gold production or unforeseen changes in economic assumptions may adversely affect the level of free cash flow that the Group can generate on a monthly basis. The Directors have a reasonable expectation that, after taking into account reasonably possible changes in trading performance, and the current macroeconomic situation, the Group has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus, they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the Financial Statements.

2.         Other Income and Expenses

Under the copper exploration alliance with Vale announced on 10 May 2024, the related exploration activities undertaken by the Group under the management of a working committee (comprising representatives from Vale and Serabi), were funded in their entirety by Vale during Phase 1 of the programme. Following the completion of Phase 1, Vale advised the Group, in April 2024, that it did not wish to continue the exploration alliance.

Exploration and development of copper deposits is not the core activity of the Group and further funding beyond the Phase 1 commitment would be required before a judgment could be made as to a project being commercially viable. There is a significant cost involved in developing new copper deposits and it is unlikely that, without the financial support of a partner, the Group would independently seek to develop a copper project in preference to any of its existing gold projects and discoveries. As a result, both the funding received from Vale and the related exploration expenditures has been recognised through the income statement. As this is not a principal business activity of the Group these receipts and expenditures are classified as other income and other expenses.

4.         Taxation

The Group has recognised a deferred tax asset to the extent that the Group has reasonable certainty as to the level and timing of future profits that might be generated and against which the asset may be recovered. The deferred tax liability arising on unrealised exchange gains has been eliminated in previous periods, and the stronger Brazilian Real exchange rate at the end of the period has resulted in deferred tax income of US$1,405,796 (nine months to 30 September 2024 – income of US$946,220).

The Group has also incurred a tax charge in Brazil for the nine-month period of US$8,619,461 (nine months to 30 September 2024 tax charge - US$3,783,403).
