  1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS

    Northisle Copper and Gold Inc. together with its subsidiary, North Island Mining Corp. (collectively, "Northisle" or the "Company") is a Canadian exploration stage company which is focused on the exploration and development of its North Island Project on Vancouver Island.

    The Company is incorporated in British Columbia, Canada. Its head office is located at 520 - 1050 West Pender Street, Vancouver, British Columbia.

    The nature of the Company's operations requires significant expenditures for the acquisition, exploration, and evaluation of mineral properties. To date, the Company has not generated any revenue from mining operations and is considered to be in the exploration stage. The Company's operations have been primarily funded from equity financings. The Company will continue to require additional funding to maintain its ongoing exploration and evaluation programs, property maintenance payments, and operations.

  2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
    1. Compliance with International Financial Reporting Standards

      These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ("IFRS Accounting Standards"), as applicable to the preparation of interim financial statements including International Accounting Standard ("IAS") 34, Interim Financial Reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and notes to the consolidated financial statements required by IFRS Accounting Standards for annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Company's most recent audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025.

      These condensed interim financial statements were approved for issue by the Company's Board of Directors on August 19, 2026.

    2. IFRS Pronouncements Adopted

      Effective January 1, 2026, the Company adopted amendments to IFRS 9, Financial Instruments and IFRS 7, Financial Instruments: Disclosures related to the classification and measurement of financial instruments.

      The adoption of these amendments did not have a material impact on the Company's condensed interim consolidated financial statements.

      (Unaudited)

      (Expressed in Canadian dollars)

      Not yet adopted

      IFRS 18 - Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements

      In April 2024, the IASB issued IFRS 18, Presentation and Disclosure of Financial Statements (IFRS 18), which replaces IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements. IFRS 18 introduces a specified structure for the income statement by requiring income and expenses to be presented into the three defined categories of operating, investing and financing, and by specifying certain defined totals and subtotals. Where company-specific measures related to the income statement are provided, IFRS 18 requires companies to disclose explanations around these measures, which are referred to as management-defined performance measures. IFRS 18 also provides additional guidance on principles of aggregation and disaggregation which apply to the primary financial statements and the notes. IFRS 18 will not affect the recognition and measurement of items in the financial statements, nor will it affect which items are classified in other comprehensive income and how these items are classified. The standard is effective for reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027, including for interim financial statements. Retrospective application is required, and early application is permitted. Management is currently assessing the effect of this new standard on our financial statements.

      As of June 30, 2026, there are no other IFRS or IFRIC interpretations with future effective dates that are expected to have a material impact on the Company.

    3. Critical accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions

      The preparation of these consolidated financial statements required management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and other disclosures in these consolidated financial statements. Estimates and the underlying assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making the judgments about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions.

      Estimates and the underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period of the revision and further periods if the review affects both current and future periods.

      Critical estimates are estimates and assumptions made by management that may result in material adjustments to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities within the next financial year. Critical estimates used in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements include, among others, the impairment of carrying values of equipment and mineral property interests, and the determination of realizable amounts of deferred tax assets and liabilities.

      Critical accounting judgments are judgments about the application of accounting policies that have been identified as being complex or involving subjective judgments or assessments. Critical accounting judgments include the expected economic lives of equipment and the identification of potential indicators of impairment for exploration and evaluation assets.

      At each reporting period, management applies judgment in assessing whether there are any indicators of impairment relating to mineral property interests. If any such indicator exists, then an impairment test is performed by management. Indicators of impairment may include (i) the period during which the entity has the right to explore in the specific area has expired during the year or will expire in the

      (Unaudited)

      (Expressed in Canadian dollars)

      near future; (ii) substantive expenditure on further exploration for and evaluation of mineral resources in the specific area is neither budgeted nor planned; (iii) sufficient data exists to support that extracting the resources will not be technically feasible or commercially viable; and (iv) facts and circumstances suggest that the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount. As at June 30, 2026, management identified no impairment indicators and consequently, impairment testing was not required.

    4. Consolidation

These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its 100% controlled subsidiary, North Island Mining Corp. (collectively, the "Company"). Control exists when the Company has the power, directly or indirectly, to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. All significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated upon consolidation.

      JUNE 30, 2026 10,016,000

      The North Island Copper Gold Project (the "Project") consists of a contiguous block of mineral claims located on northern Vancouver Island in British Columbia, Canada. The claims include the Hushamu, Red Dog, Northwest Expo and West Goodspeed copper gold porphyry deposits, as well as numerous additional identified porphyry exploration targets and occurrences.

      Certain claims (historically known as the Expo claims) are subject to a 10% net profits interest royalty currently held by Royal Gold, Inc. Should a production decision be made on the Expo claims, the Company is required to make a cash payment of $1,000,000 to Sirit Inc., or its successors, within 60 days of the production decision.

      Certain other claims underlying the Project are known as the Apple Bay claims. Should a production decision be made regarding the Apple Bay claims, the Company is required to pay $800,000 in cash or in shares to Electra Gold Ltd., or its successors ("Electra"). The payment method is at the election of the Company. Electra maintains a limited right to explore the Apple Bay claims for non-metallic minerals subject to certain conditions including approval by Northisle.

      Claims underlying the Red Dog and a portion of the West Goodspeed deposit are subject to a combined 3% net smelter return royalty, of which up to 2% can be repurchased at the option of the Company at any time for a cash payment of US$1,000,000 for each 1% repurchased.

  6. FLOW-THROUGH PREMIUM LIABILITY

    The flow-through premium liability balance as at June 30, 2026, of $657,735 (December 31, 2025 -

    $2,476,497) arose in connection with the flow-through share offering the Company completed on August 8, 2025. The reported amount is the remaining balance of the premium from issuing the flow-through shares. The flow-through premium is recognized in the statement of loss based on the amount of qualifying flow-through expenditures incurred by the Company.

    On August 8, 2025, the Company completed a flow-through financing and recorded a flow through liability of $3,328,997 and committed to incur, on or before December 31, 2026, qualifying Canadian exploration expenses as defined under the Income Tax Act, Canada ("Qualifying CEE'') in the amount of $15,001,497. None of the Qualifying CEE will be available to the Company for future deduction from taxable income. As at June 30, 2026, the Company has a remaining commitment to incur Qualifying CEE of $2,963,957.

    Accordingly, the Company recognized a flow-through premium recovery of $733,833 and $1,818,762 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, respectively ($817,054 and $954,384 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively).

  7. LEASE LIABILITY

    On May 15, 2024, the Company entered into vehicle lease agreements, as described in Note 7. The vehicle lease agreements include an aggregate purchase option of $125,000 at the end of the lease term.

    On October 1, 2025, the Company entered into a lease agreement for a site office located at Port Hardy, as described in Note 7. There is no option to purchase the property included in the lease.

    On June 22, 2026, the Company entered into a lease agreement for its head office in Vancouver, as described in Note 7. There is no option to purchase the premises.

    Operating costs, property taxes and other variable occupancy costs are excluded from the measurement of lease liabilities as they do not constitute lease payments under IFRS 16 and are recognized in profit or loss as incurred.

    At the date of recognition, each lease liability was measured at the present value of the lease payments that were not paid as at that date. The lease payments are discounted using an annual interest rate of 8.99%. For the rented trucks, this is the contracted rate applicable to the lease agreement. For the rented offices, this rate reflects an estimate of the marginal cost of financing fixed assets available to the company. The continuity of the lease liability is presented in the table below.

    2. Restricted Share Units

      The Company granted restricted share units ("RSUs") in accordance with the share unit plan approved at the Company's 2021 shareholders meeting. These RSUs vest in three equal tranches on the anniversary of the respective grant date and are promptly converted into common shares. These RSUs can be cash or equity-settled at the Company's discretion. The Company's RSUs are classified as equity instruments. This classification reflects the Company's stated policy of settling RSUs in ordinary shares, and the absence of a present obligation to settle in cash. RSUs are measured at the market price of the Company's shares on the date of grant. Under the share unit plan the Company has reserved an amount not exceeding 7,000,000 shares for the issuance of RSUs, deferred share unit ("DSUs"), and performance share units ("PSUs") and, when combined with the Option Plan, no more than 10% of the Company's outstanding shares on a rolling basis. As at June 30, 2026, the Company could issue an additional 3,661,600 RSUs under the terms of the share unit plan.

    3. Deferred Share Units

      Only non-executive directors of the Company are eligible for DSUs. Each DSU vests over twelve months and is redeemed upon a director ceasing to be a director of the Company. These DSUs can be cash or equity-settled at the Company's discretion. The Company's DSUs are classified as equity instruments. This classification reflects the Company's past practice and stated policy of settling DSUs in ordinary shares, and the absence of a present obligation to settle in cash. DSUs are measured at the market price of the Company's shares on the date of grant. Under the share unit plan the Company has reserved an amount not exceeding 7,000,000 shares for the issuance of RSUs, DSUs, and PSUs. As at June 30, 2026, the Company could issue an additional 5,422,300 DSUs under the terms of the share unit plan.

    As at June 30, 2026, the Company had no outstanding balance of receivables or payables (2025 - $69,340 receivable) with its directors or key management personnel.

  3. SEGMENTED INFORMATION

    The Company's operations are in one segment: the acquisition, exploration and development of mineral resource properties. All interest income is earned in Canada and all assets are held in Canada.

    The Company's Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM") is the Chief Executive Officer, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing the performance of the Company's operations. The CODM reviews financial information on a consolidated basis for the purpose of making operating decisions and evaluating financial performance. Accordingly, the Company has determined that it has a single reportable segment.

  4. CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

    The Company is a mineral exploration and development company focusing on advancing the North Island Project. Its principal source of funds is the issuance of securities. The Company considers capital to be equity attributable to common shareholders, comprised of share capital, contributed surplus, and deficit. It is the Company's objective to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern so that it can continue to explore and develop its projects.

    The Company manages its capital structure based on the funds available for its operations and makes adjustments for changes in economic conditions, capital markets and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets. To maintain its objectives, the Company may attempt to issue new shares, seek debt financing, acquire or dispose of assets or change the timing of its planned exploration and development projects. There is no assurance that these initiatives will be successful.

    The Company monitors its cash position on a regular basis to determine whether sufficient funds are available to meet its short-term and long-term corporate objectives.

    (Unaudited)

    (Expressed in Canadian dollars)

    There has been no change in the Company's capital management practices during the period. The Company does not pay dividends. Neither the Company nor its subsidiary is subject to externally imposed capital requirements.

  5. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENT RISK

    The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Company's risk management framework. The Company has exposure to liquidity and credit risk from financial instruments. Financial instruments consist of cash and equivalents, including guaranteed investment certificates, certain other assets, reclamation bonds and accounts payable and accrued liabilities.

    1. Liquidity risk

      Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will be unable to meet its financial obligations as they come due. The Company uses cash forecasts to ensure that there is sufficient cash on hand to meet short-term business requirements. The Company's accounts payable and accrued liabilities are all due in the short term. Cash is invested in highly liquid investments which are available to discharge obligations when they come due. The Company does not maintain a line of credit.

      At June 30, 2026, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $125,805,187 (December 31, 2025

      - $32,504,353). The Company's financial liabilities consist of accounts payable and accrued liabilities and lease liabilities. All accounts payable and accrued liabilities are due within one year. Lease liabilities are due as per contractual obligations under the respective lease agreements.

      The following table summarizes the maturity profile of the Company's financial liabilities:

      3,781,247

      259,204

      206,087

      4,246,538

      The Company assessed its liquidity risk as low as at June 30, 2026 as cash and cash equivalents are sufficient to meet obligations when they come due.

    2. Credit risk

      Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to credit risk consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents, and reclamation deposits. These financial instruments are at risk to the extent that the institutions issuing or holding them cannot redeem amounts when they are due or requested. To limit its credit risk, the Company has adopted an investment policy which, among other things, sets out how such assets are to be managed. The carrying amount of financial assets recorded in the financial statements, net of any allowance for losses, represents the Company's maximum exposure to credit risk.

      (Unaudited)

      (Expressed in Canadian dollars)

    3. Market risk

The Company has assessed its exposure to market risk, including interest rate risk. Cash equivalents consist of short-term guaranteed investment certificates bearing fixed interest rates. Accordingly, changes in market interest rates would not have a significant impact on the Company's cash flows.
