Consolidated 2025 Financial Statements 5

1. Nature of Operations

Skeena Resources Limited (“Skeena” or the “Company”) is incorporated under the laws of the province of British Columbia, Canada. The Company is a mining company in development stage focusing on the construction and development of the Eskay Creek project (“Eskay” or “Eskay Project”) in British Columbia. The Company’s corporate office is located at 2600 – 1133 Melville Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6E 4E5. The Company’s stock trades on the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) and New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol “SKE”, and on the German stock exchanges under the ticker symbol “RXF”.

On June 24, 2024, the Company entered into binding agreements with Orion Resource Partners (“Orion”) with respect to a Project Financing Package for the development and construction of the Eskay Project. The Project Financing Package is comprised of private placements, a Gold Stream, and a Senior Secured Term Loan facility (Note 7).

As long as the Company meets the conditions precedent to the Senior Secured Term Loan, the Company anticipates that proceeds from the Project Financing Package will be sufficient to fund its capital requirements up to the commencement of commercial production at Eskay, which Management currently anticipates will be in 2027. Should the Company not be able to draw from this facility, or in the event this facility is insufficient to complete construction and commissioning of the mine, the Company will need to secure additional financing. In the longer term, the Company’s ability to continue as going concern is dependent upon successful execution of its business plan, including bringing the Eskay Creek project to profitable operation.

2. Basis of Presentation

Statement of compliance

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, Interim Financial Reporting (“IAS 34”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). They do not include all of the information and footnotes required for annual financial statements prepared using International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2024.

The accounting policies applied in the preparation of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements are consistent with those applied and disclosed in the Company’s audited annual consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2024.

The Board of Directors approved these condensed interim consolidated financial statements for issuance on November 12, 2025.

Basis of measurement

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on historical cost basis, except for certain financial instruments that are measured at fair value.

The condensed interim consolidated financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars, and tabular values are rounded to the nearest thousand.

Consolidated 2025 Financial Statements 6

Graphic

2. Basis of Presentation (continued)

Significant accounting estimates and judgments

The preparation of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements requires Management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed interim consolidated financial statements and reported amounts of expenses during the reporting periods. Actual outcomes could differ from these estimates and judgments, which, by their nature, are uncertain. Significant judgments made by management in applying the Company’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty are the same as those that applied to the annual consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2024.

3. New Standards, Amendments and Interpretations

New standards and interpretations not yet adopted in 2025

IFRS 18: Presentation and Disclosure of Financial Statements

On April 9, 2024, the IASB issued IFRS 18, Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements (“IFRS 18”), to improve reporting of financial performance. IFRS 18 will replace IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements (“IAS 1”). IFRS 18 introduces specific structure for the income statement by requiring income and expenses to be presented into 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 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 (loss) and how these items are classified.

The standard is applicable for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027, with retrospective application required. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of the standard.

4. Financial Instruments and Risk Management

The carrying values of the Company’s financial instruments are as follows:

In 000s Category **** September 30, 2025 **** December 31, 2024
Cash and cash equivalents Amortized cost $ 108,216 $ 96,941
Marketable securities Fair value through profit or loss $ 44,797 $ 949
Receivables Amortized cost $ $ 45
Deposits Amortized cost $ 10,039 $ 5,083
Accounts payable Amortized cost $ 52,527 $ 49,259
Derivative liability Fair value through profit or loss $ 379,706 $ 63,886
Other liabilities Amortized cost $ 6,732 $ 4,867

All values are in US Dollars.

For financial assets and financial liabilities at amortized cost, the fair value at initial recognition is determined in accordance with generally accepted pricing models based on discounted cash flow analysis or using prices from observable current market transactions. The fair value of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, receivables, deposits, accounts payable and other liabilities approximate their carrying amounts due to the short-term maturities of these instruments and/or the rate of interest being received or charged.

Consolidated 2025 Financial Statements 7

Graphic

4. Financial Instruments and Risk Management (continued)

Financial instruments measured at fair value are classified into one of three levels in the fair value hierarchy according to the relative reliability of the inputs used to estimate the fair values. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are:

Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2 – Valuation techniques using inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices); and

Level 3 – Valuation techniques using inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data.

The carrying value of the Company’s marketable securities is based on the quoted market price of the shares in the publicly traded company to which the investment relates (Level 1).

The fair value of the derivative liability relates to the gold stream entered into with Orion (Note 7) and is based on the Company's forecast of the timing of receipt of the US$200,000,000 facility, the assumption that the US$100,000,000 cost over-run facility will not be utilized, the Company's forecasts of the Eskay Creek project completion date and gold production schedule, gold prices including their volatility, and the anticipated credit spreads of the Company and Orion (Level 3). The fair value of the Gold Stream derivative liability is calculated using a Monte-Carlo simulation as the value of the Gold Stream is linked to the gold price and the Company has an option to reduce the gold stream percentage. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the following assumptions were utilized:

**** September 30, 2025 December 31, 2024
Gold spot price (USD per ounce) $ 3,807 $ 2,611
Gold price implied volatility^1^ 19.85 % 15.17 %
Credit spread of the Company 16.28 % 16.42 %
Credit spread of Orion^2^ N/A 0.53 %

(1) Estimate based on a Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) gold traded option with the closest maturity to the Gold Stream.
(2) As it is a private investment entity, Orion’s credit spread is estimated based on the average option-adjusted spreads of selected constituents from the ICE BoA US Finance and Investment index with the term to maturity matching the future drawdown dates of the Gold Stream on each of the calculation dates. As of September 30, 2025, the US$200,000,000 facility has been fully drawn.
--- ---

There were no changes to the levels of fair value hierarchy for financial instruments measured at fair value during the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

The Company’s risk exposure and the impact on the Company’s financial instruments are summarized below:

Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of an unexpected loss if a counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. The Company's credit risk is primarily attributable to its cash and cash equivalents, receivables and deposits totaling $118,255,000 (December 31, 2024 – $102,069,000). The Company limits its exposure to credit risk by dealing with high credit quality counterparties. The Company's cash and cash equivalents are primarily held at large credit worthy Canadian financial institutions. The Company’s deposits are comprised primarily of construction deposits, collateral paid to the surety bond provider relating to reclamation security and security deposits on leased office premises, all of which are held by large and reputable vendors.

Market risk

Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in market prices. Market risk consists of interest rate risk, currency risk and other price risk.

Market risk (continued)

Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company is exposed to interest rate risk with respect to interest earned on cash and cash equivalents. Based on the balances of cash and cash equivalents at September 30, 2025, a 1% increase (decrease) in interest rates at September 30, 2025 would have decreased (increased) net loss before tax by $797,000. The Company does not have any debt with floating interest rates. Once draws are made on the Senior Secured Term Loan facility, the Company will be exposed to interest rate risk on loan obligations that bear interest at a floating rate.

The Company is also exposed to credit spread risk on the Gold Stream derivative liability, being the risk that the fair value of the financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in the Company's credit spread. An increase of 100 basis points in credit spread at September 30, 2025 would have decreased net loss before tax by $12,867,000. Conversely, a decrease of 100 basis points would have increased net loss before tax by $13,457,000.

The Company does not use derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to interest rate risk.

Currency risk

Currency risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The functional currency of the Company is the Canadian dollar. The carrying amounts of financial assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the Canadian dollar are subject to fluctuations in the underlying foreign currency exchange rates and gains and losses on such items are included as a component of net loss for the period. At September 30, 2025, the Company has US$65,259,000 of cash and cash equivalents, US$632,000 in accounts payable and US$272,835,000 in derivative liability. Once draws are made on the Senior Secured Term Loan facility, the Company will be exposed to foreign exchange risk with respect to foreign denominated loan obligations as the future cash repayments of the Company’s loan obligations, measured in Canadian dollars, being the Company’s functional currency, will fluctuate because of changes in the US dollar exchange rate. The Company is exposed to foreign exchange risk on the Gold Stream derivative liability. The Company does not currently use derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to foreign exchange risk. Based on balances of these instruments at September 30, 2025, a 1% increase (decrease) in foreign exchange rates at September 30, 2025 would have decreased (increased) net loss before tax by $2,898,000.

Other price risk

Other price risk is the risk that the fair values of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices, other than interest rate risk or currency risk. At September 30, 2025, the Company held investments in marketable securities which are measured at fair value. The fair values of investments in marketable securities are based on the closing share price of the securities at the reporting date. A 10% decrease in the share price of the Company’s marketable securities at September 30, 2025 would have resulted in a $4,480,000 decrease to the carrying value of the Company’s marketable securities and an increase of the same amount to the Company’s unrealized loss on marketable securities. The Company is also exposed to gold price risk on the Gold Stream derivative liability, being the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of the financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market gold prices. A 5% increase in the forward gold price curve at September 30, 2025 would have increased net loss before tax by $9,881,000. Conversely, a 5% decrease would have decreased net loss before tax by $10,039,000. The Company does not use derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to gold price risk.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its obligations as they become due. The Company’s approach to managing liquidity risk is to ensure that it will have sufficient cash to meet liabilities when due. The Company manages its liquidity risk by forecasting cash flows from operations and anticipating any investing and financing activities. Management and the Board of Directors are actively involved in the review, planning and approval of significant expenditures and commitments.

The undiscounted financial liabilities and commitments as of September 30, 2025 will mature as follows:

7. Project Financing Package

On June 24, 2024, the Company entered into binding agreements with Orion with respect to a Project Financing Package for the development and construction of Eskay. The Project Financing Package is comprised of private placements of $122,750,000 that closed on June 24, 2024, a Gold Stream of US$200,000,000 with an optional deposit of up to US$100,000,000, and a Senior Secured Term Loan facility of US$350,000,000. The Senior Secured Term Loan facility will be available after the Gold Stream has been fully drawn, limited to one advance per quarter of US$87,500,000. The significant terms of the components of the Gold Stream are outlined below.

Gold Stream

Deposit: Total deposit of US$200,000,000 (the “Deposit”) in a series of five deposits on the following schedule:
o US$5,000,000 at the inception of the Gold Stream (received $6,808,000 (US$5,000,000) on July 5, 2024);
--- ---
o US$45,000,000 between January 1, 2025 and June 30, 2025 (received $64,815,000 (US$45,000,000) on    December 30, 2024);

--- ---
o US$50,000,000 between July 1, 2025 and January 31, 2026 (received $68,967,000 (US$50,000,000 on September 4, 2025); and
--- ---
o US$50,000,000 between September 1, 2025 and March 31, 2026 (received $69,692,000 (US$50,000,000 on September 29, 2025);
--- ---
Area of interest: The area of interest for the Gold Stream is constrained to 500 meters around the existing Eskay mineral reserves and resources;
--- ---
Deliveries: 10.55% of the payable gold production from Eskay (“Stream Percentage”) for the life of the mine, provided that the completion test (as defined in the agreement) is successfully achieved on or before September 30, 2027. If the completion test is not satisfied by September 30, 2027, Stream Percentage would increase to 10.70%, 10.85% and 11.00% if completion is achieved in the first, second or third calendar quarters following September 30, 2027, respectively, and to 11.40% for the remaining calendar quarters until satisfaction of the completion test;
--- ---
Purchase price of each Eskay gold ounce sold and delivered: Until the Deposit has been reduced to $nil, the purchase price payable is (i) a cash payment of 10% of the gold market price on LBMA three days prior to delivery; and (ii) the difference between the gold market price and the cash payment received is credited to the Deposit. Once the Deposit has been reduced to $nil, the purchase price payable is a cash payment of 10% of the gold market price on LBMA three days prior to delivery;
--- ---
Buy-down option: For a period of 12 months following the project completion date (as defined in the agreement), the Company may, at any time, reduce the Stream Percentage by 66.67% by repaying the proportional Deposit plus an imputed 18% internal rate of return (“IRR”);
--- ---
Additional deposit: Following receipt of the full amount of the Deposit and the fourth advance of the Senior Secured Term Loan, the Company will have the option to draw an additional deposit amount of US$25,000,000 to US$100,000,000, with Stream Percentage to increase pro-rata to additional deposit drawn. The additional deposit will be subject to an availability fee equal to 1% per annum of any undrawn portion, payable quarterly, and a 2% fee payable at the time of payment of the additional deposit;
--- ---
Term: 20 years (“Initial Term”), which will be extended for successive 10-year periods (“Additional Term”). If there have been no active mining operations on Eskay during the final 10 years of Initial Term or throughout such Additional Term, the gold stream agreement will terminate at the end of the Initial Term or such Additional Term;

Gold Stream (continued)

Financial covenants:
o Following a grace period after achieving the completion test and continuing until the Security Release Date^1^, the Company shall maintain a debt service coverage ratio (as defined in the agreement) of no less than 1.25:1 for the six-month period ending on the last date of each quarter; and

o Until the Security Release Date, following the full drawdown or cancellation of the commitments under the Senior Secured Term Loan and the additional deposit, the Company shall maintain at all times unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of at least $25,000,000;
--- ---
Security: General security and share pledge agreements in favour of Orion from the Company.
--- ---

The Gold Stream is accounted for as a derivative instrument measured at fair value through profit and loss. There was no initial fair value amount to record in the financial statements for the Gold Stream as at June 24, 2024 as it was determined that the terms of the contract at inception represented market rates. As there were no draws on the Gold Stream at June 30, 2024, no amounts related to the Gold Stream were recorded at that date.

Below is a reconciliation of the Gold Stream derivative liability for the nine months ended September 30, 2025:

In $000s
Balance, December 31, 2023 $

Availability fee

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company incurred an availability fee of $4,712,000, of which $3,661,000 relates to the Senior Secured Term Loan and is capitalized to Other non-current assets, and $1,051,000 relates to the Gold Stream additional deposit and is recognized as finance fee expense.


^1^The Security Release Date is the later of: (a) Orion yielding an imputed 13% IRR on the Deposit; and (b) the earlier of the date on which (i) the Senior Secured Term Loan is repaid in full or (ii) Orion is no longer the lender under the Senior Secured Term Loan.

Share-based payments

Stock options

The stock options expire up to 5 years from the grant date. The Company determines the fair value of the stock options granted using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

Restricted share units and performance share units

Upon each vesting date, participants will receive, at the sole discretion of the Board of Directors: (a) common shares equal to the number of restricted share units (“RSUs”) or performance share units (“PSUs”) that vested; (b) cash payment equal to the 5-day volume weighted average trading price of common shares; or (c) a combination of (a) and (b). For RSUs classified as equity settled share-based payments, the Company determines the fair value of the RSUs granted using the Company’s share price on grant date. For PSUs granted during the period, the fair values were determined using the Company’s share price on grant date.

Deferred share units

The deferred share units (“DSUs”) are granted to independent members of the Board of Directors. The DSUs vest immediately and have all of the rights and restrictions that are applicable to RSUs, except that the DSUs may not be redeemed until the participant has ceased to hold all offices, employment and directorships with the Company. For DSUs classified as equity settled share-based payments, the Company determines the fair value of the DSUs granted using the Company’s share price on grant date.

September 30 September 30
In $000s 2025 2024 2025 2024
Exploration and evaluation expense $ $ 222 $ $ 735
General and administrative expense $ 4,913 $ 2,224 $ 14,870 $ 6,314

Accounts payable and accrued liabilities

Included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities at September 30, 2025 is $1,658,000 (December 31, 2024 – $2,106,000) which is owed to key management personnel in relation to key management compensation noted above.

12. Contingencies

Due to the nature of Company’s operations, various legal and tax matters arise in the ordinary course of business. The Company accrues such items as liabilities when the amount can be reasonably estimated, and settlement of the matter is probable to require an outflow of future economic benefits from the Company.

In 2022, the Chief Gold Commissioner and Supreme Court of British Columbia asserted, in error, that the Company did not own the mineral rights to materials previously deposited in the Albino Lake Storage Facility by previous operators. In July 2024, the British Columbia Court of Appeal overturned the decision of the Chief Gold Commissioner and Supreme Court of British Columbia, and referred the matter back to the Chief Gold Commissioner for rehearing and reconsideration. The counterparty in the matter sought leave to appeal to the Supreme Court of Canada but their application was dismissed. This allows the Company to complete the rehearing before the new Gold Commissioner. As the materials contained in the Albino Lake Storage Facility were not included in the Company’s Eskay Creek Prefeasibility Study (2021), Feasibility Study (2022) nor in the updated Feasibility Study (2023), the outcome of this matter is not expected to have any effect on the carrying value of Eskay.

Exploration Properties

See “The Company” section above for discussion of the exploration properties held by the Company. The Company considers the Eskay Creek Project to be its primary project.

Eskay Creek Project, British Columbia, Canada

Geological background

The Eskay Creek volcanogenic massive sulphide (“VMS”) and epigenetic deposits were emplaced in a submarine bimodal volcanic environment which are believed to be constrained within a contemporaneous fault-bounded basin. The volcanic sequence consists of footwall rhyolite units overlain by younger basalt units. The contact mudstone terrigenous sediments were deposited at a time of depositional quiescence during an otherwise active period of volcanism. This mudstone (“Contact Mudstone”) is spatially and temporally related to the main mineralizing event at Eskay Creek. The two are separated by the Contact Mudstone which hosts most of the historically exploited mineralization at Eskay Creek.

The Company’s drilling in 2020 intercepted a compositionally similar mudstone unit (the Lower Mudstone) positioned approximately 100 metres (“m”) stratigraphically below the Contact Mudstone. The Lower Mudstone represents a similar period of volcanic quiescence during which clastic sedimentation dominated prior to the onset of bimodal volcanism that formed the Eskay Creek deposits. The presence of the Lower Mudstone demonstrates the stratigraphic cyclicity which is common to the group of VMS deposits worldwide, of which Eskay Creek is a member.

The bonanza precious metal Au-Ag grades and epigenetic suite of associated elements (Hg-Sb-As) occur predominantly within the Contact Mudstone but are not distributed uniformly throughout the unit. Rather, they are spatially associated with, and concentrated near interpreted hydrothermal vents fed from underlying syn-volcanic feeders. Company drilling campaigns, starting in 2019, have intercepted feeder-style, discordant mineralization in the footwall rhyolites.

Historically, the underlying rhyolite-hosted feeder style mineralization was minimally exploited due to its lower Au-Ag grades. It is noteworthy this rhyolite-hosted mineralization is not enriched in the Hg-Sb-As suite of elements and was often blended with mudstone-hosted zones to reduce smelter penalties for the on-site milled concentrates and direct shipping ore.

Mining history

The Eskay Creek property historically operated as a high-grade underground operation. Underground mining operations were conducted from 1995 to 2008. From 1995 to 1997, ore was direct-shipped after blending and primary crushing. From 1997 to closure in 2008, ore was milled on site to produce a shipping concentrate.

Eskay Creek’s historic production was 3.3 million ounces of gold and 162 million ounces of silver from 2.3 million tonnes (“Mt”) of ore. The property was regarded as having been the highest-grade gold operation in the world with an average grade of 45 grams per tonne (“g/t”) gold and over 2,000 g/t silver.

The historical production for Eskay Creek is summarized in Figure 2.

Skeena history at Eskay Creek

In August 2018, Skeena commenced an initial surface drill program at Eskay Creek. This first phase of exploratory and definition drilling was focused on the historically unmined portions of the 21A, 21C and 22 Zones of mineralization.

These near-surface targets are located proximal to the historical mine footprint and held potential for expansion of mineralization which may be suitable for open-pit mining. The goal of the 2019 Phase I program was to increase drill density in select areas of mineralization to increase confidence in the resource and allow for future mine planning, collect fresh material for preliminary metallurgical testing and expand exploration into areas that had not previously been drill tested to delineate additional resources. The results of this drill program were incorporated into the results of an initial resource estimate for the Eskay deposit.

The Phase I infill and expansion drilling program at Eskay Creek successfully upgraded the Inferred Resources (as defined in NI 43-101) hosted in the various zones. During this program, two additional drill holes (SK--19--063 and SK--19--067) were extended below the Inferred Resources to test the exploration potential of a secondary and lesser-known mineralized mudstone horizon, termed the Lower Mudstone.

On November 7, 2019, the Company published a Preliminary Economic Assessment (“PEA”) prepared by Ausenco Engineering Canada Inc. (“Ausenco”), supported by SRK Consulting (Canada) Inc. (“SRK”), and AGP Mining Consultants Inc. (“AGP”), for the Eskay Creek Project. On September 1, 2021, the Company advanced the PEA to a Prefeasibility Study for the Eskay Creek Project prepared by Ausenco, SRK, and AGP (the “PFS”).

On September 19, 2022, the Company published a Feasibility Study (“FS”) for the Eskay Creek Project, prepared by Ausenco (the “2022-FS”). A summary of the 2022-FS results was published in a news release on September 8, 2022.

On December 22, 2023, the Company published an Updated Feasibility Study for the Eskay Creek Project (the “2023-DFS” or “DFS”), prepared by Sedgman Canada Ltd. (“Sedgman”) and Global Resource Engineering (“GRE”).

Hoodoo and KSP Properties

During 2024, Skeena finalized a large airborne magnetics survey and data compilation for the new 74,633 hectare Hoodoo Project which was staked in October 2023. The Hoodoo property is situated approximately 65 kilometers northwest of Eskay Creek. Remarkably, this ground was unclaimed mineral tenure with virtually no historical exploration despite possessing very high prospectivity for alkalic porphyry deposits. Alkalic gold-copper porphyry deposits in the Cordillera of British Columbia typically rank as the higher-grade end members examples of which are Galore Creek and New Afton. These specific deposits are attractive exploration targets based on their atypically high gold tenor. To further hone 2024 drill targeting, the Company performed a ZTEM airborne geophysical survey over the KSP property.

An accelerated exploration model was employed in H2 2024 that judiciously ranked and ultimately culminated in drilling targets on the KSP property. The successes of the 2023 field program in discovering new gold-copper mineralization and increasing the geological understanding of the KSP and Hoodoo properties warranted augmented exploration in these areas.

In H2 2024, the Company drilled a total of 22 surface-based drill holes totaling 9,182 metres on the KSP property. These holes were targeting Cu-Au porphyry mineralization. The drilling expanded known occurrences drilled by previous operators as well as testing new targets generated from the 2024 sampling program and ZTEM surveys.

Situated on the northwestern portion of the KSP Project and approximately 5 kilometers southeast of the Company’s Snip Gold Project, the Camp Porphyry area is host to a large, previously unexplored porphyry body. Drilling by the Company in 2024 intersected broad intervals of previously unrecognized Au-Cu porphyry mineralization featured by 381.47 metres averaging 0.71 gpt Au, 0.69 gpt Ag, 0.03 % Cu beginning at 50 metres below surface. This initial phase of widely spaced exploratory drilling has traced the new mineralization along a strike length of approximately 1,000 meters, with potential for further expansion through additional drilling.

Numerous Au-Cu intervals were intersected in discovery drill hole CP-24-004 on the western flank of the intrusion which is coincident with the margin of a very large and discrete ZTEM resistivity anomaly. The extensive distribution of Au-Cu mineralization begins at 50 metres below surface over a drilled length of 381.47 metres averaging 0.71 gpt Au, 0.69 gpt Ag, 0.03 % Cu with subintervals grading 0.50 gpt Au, 0.78 gpt Ag, 0.03 % Cu over 117.47 metres and 1.07 gpt Au, 0.68 gpt Ag, 0.03 % Cu over 139.00 metres. These intersections display classical porphyry system alteration assemblages and elevated Au-Cu tenor is associated with potassic (biotite) alteration signatures.

Depth limited, small scale drill programs investigating porphyry style Au-Cu mineralization in the Khyber Pass area have been performed by previous operators since 1985. Historical 2017 drill hole KBDDH17-097 ended in Au-Cu mineralization but averaged 0.63 gpt Au, 2.08 gpt Ag, 0.08 % Cu over 34.00 metres. In 2024, a re-evaluation of the historic core from the Khyber Pass area prompted a program of exploratory drilling to follow up on the historic drilling that may not have completely tested this prospective area.

Highlighted by 2024 drill hole KP-24-004, which averaged 0.72 gpt Au, 1.86 gpt Ag, 0.05 % Cu over 41.69 metres, drilling indicates that the Khyber Pass area may represent a higher-level expression of a larger porphyry system as evidenced by the volumetrically lower percentage of intrusive monzodiorites. The Khyber Pass mineralization is situated ~600 metres vertically above the Camp Porphyry and may represent a higher-level expression of the system.

Maiden Engineering Study for Snip

Following the updated MRE for Snip, in 2025 Skeena will continue an engineering study on Snip to investigate Snip as a potential satellite operation, providing mineralized material to a centralized mill at Eskay Creek. The Company envisions the high-grade mineralization from Snip to further bolster the mine life at Eskay Creek by hauling and processing ore at the Eskay Creek mill.

Engineering

Following completion of the DFS, engineering has advanced into the detailed engineering phase of the project. The equipment order process is well progressed, with major orders placed and fabrication underway for key packages, structural steel, SAG/ball mills, tertiary/regrind mills, conveyors, flotation cells, fabricated platework, coarse ore stockpile cover, dewatering equipment, transformers, electrical rooms and most ancillary process equipment. Certified vendor data for process equipment is incorporated into the process plant design with concrete, structural steel, and piping designs well advanced.

Pit Wall Steepening Investigation

Data collected during the 2023 GSI campaign was analyzed during 2024 and used to support an updated engineering recommendation with respect to pit-wall slope angles. This analysis is expected to yield recommended pit-wall angles that are generally steeper than those informing the 2023-DFS pit design. If successful, this change would result in a favourable outcome for overall project economics through reduction in waste tonnes mined and/or increase in reserves.

Metallurgical Optimization & Simplified Flowsheet at Eskay Creek

Following Eskay Creek’s 2022-FS, and in preparation for the 2023-DFS, Skeena continued metallurgical test work using representative samples of Eskay Creek material. The focus of this work was to simplify the process flowsheet and improve the quality of the concentrate expected to be produced from the flotation plant. Metallurgical tests were conducted through 2023 in support of the DFS to optimize the flowsheet and to increase grades of payable metals in the concentrate.

As part of the DFS, metallurgical testing was conducted on composite samples that represented a range of 15-35% Mudstone with the balance as Rhyolite, matching the expected range of lithologies to be produced by the mine. This optimized metallurgical basis, including flowsheet and process design criteria, currently forms the basis of the process plant detailed design.

Environmental, Social and Corporate Governance

Environmental

Skeena is committed to minimizing any negative environmental impacts from its operations and identifying opportunities to improve upon the environmental impacts of historical operations. As a high-grade ore body with a small operational footprint coupled with connection to British Columbia's low carbon electrical grid, Eskay Creek is expected to have much lower carbon emissions than comparable mines.

One of Skeena’s core values is to respect and protect the land for future generations. Skeena’s employees, contractors and leadership live these values while conducting Skeena’s operations. A key example of this commitment to Skeena’s core values was the donation of the Spectrum property to create the nature conservancy further described below in the section “Relations with Indigenous Communities.”

Permitting

Eskay Creek is an operating mine under the Mines Act, currently in development. The site has been maintained in good standing and environmental monitoring has been ongoing during operations and since the site was closed in 2008. There is a substantial database of environmental information for the site and region spanning almost 30 years.

To accommodate the mine design contemplated for future development, a new environmental assessment and amended major mines permits will be required. Environmental and socio-economic baseline studies are ongoing to support the environmental assessment and permitting processes.

The Eskay Project continues to advance in the environmental assessment process. The first Section 7-Consent Agreement in Canada was signed by Tahltan & BC in June 2022.  The Impact Assessment Agency of Canada (“IAAC”) issued a Substitution Decision for the Eskay Creek Project in November 2022, so Eskay Creek will undergo a single assessment under the BC process, with IAAC participation through the BC process. The Eskay Creek Project achieved a readiness determination from the BC government and the Tahltan Central Government (“TCG”) in November 2022, and the Process Order for the project was issued in April 2023. The initial environmental assessment application for Eskay was submitted in August and accepted by the BC Environmental Assessment Office on August 21, 2024. In April 2025, the Company filed the environmental assessment application for joint review with the TCG. The Company received a positive adequacy decision from BC and TCG on May 30, 2025 which advanced the EA application to the 150-day effects assessment stage of the EA process.

In August 2022, Skeena received an amended Mines Act Permit, allowing greater flexibility for closure and exploration within the Permitted Mine Area. The Company continues to pursue key authorizations to support ongoing and expanded site activities. In December 2023, Skeena applied to BC and the TCG to extract a 10,000-tonne Bulk Technical Sample, which was approved in December 2024. In April 2025, the Company submitted a Joint Mines Act/Environmental Management Act Amendment, further supporting the project's development.

On January 17, 2023, the Company announced that it concluded a joint workplan arrangement with the BC Government and the TCG. The Eskay Creek Process Charter outlines the manner in which the parties will collaborate on the authorizations that are needed for the Eskay Creek Project. The objective target for permitting and authorizations required for project construction to be in place is H2 2025 and is dependent on regulatory and Indigenous government processes and available resources. In June 2022, the BC Government and TCG signed the first consent agreement under Section 7 of the Declaration of the Rights of Indigenous Peoples Act (DRIPA) and Section 7 of the EA Act for the Eskay Creek Mine.

Social Community Relations

The Company has been working in the Tahltan Territory since 2014 and has developed a strong working relationship with the Tahltan Nation (“Tahltan”), which has a long-standing relationship with Eskay Creek. Previous operators maintained agreements with the Tahltan which included provisions for training, employment, and contracting opportunities. Skeena also maintains formal agreements with the TCG which guide communications, permitting, capacity and environmental practices for projects in Tahltan Territory. Skeena is currently engaged in Impact Benefit Agreement negotiations with the TCG.

Skeena has established an agreement with the Gitanyow Hereditary Chiefs for participation in the Wilp Sustainability Assessment process. A portion of the traffic required to support the Eskay Creek Project will pass through Gitanyow Territory and the Wilp Sustainability Assessment process is their process to assess the potential impacts of that traffic. The agreement lays out the process that will be followed and provides for capacity funding to support Gitanyow’s assessment.

Skeena has information sharing, confidentiality and capacity agreements in place with the Nisga’a Lisims Government. The Eskay Creek Project will make use of port facilities that are within Nisga’a Treaty area and will require certain information from Nisga’a to assess the potential impacts of port use on Nisga’a Treaty rights. The agreement provides for the information sharing and capacity to support activities required to complete a review and assessment of the Project’s potential impacts on Nisga’a Treaty rights.

Skeena also has in place a capacity agreement with Tsetsaut Skii km Lax Ha (“TSKLH”).  The TSKLH are a participating First Nation in the environmental assessment process for the Eskay Creek project and the capacity agreement funding provides support to review the Eskay Creek environmental assessment application.

Relations with Indigenous Communities

Skeena has established a vision for the Company that includes committing to reconciliation with First Nations peoples through responsible and sustainable mining development, and to deliver value and prosperity to shareholders, employees, First Nation partners and surrounding communities.

One of Skeena’s core principles is to work closely with First Nations communities to achieve the responsible development of our projects, and to make a positive difference in the places we work. Skeena believes in building and sustaining mutually beneficial and supportive relationships with First Nations communities by creating a foundation of trust and respect, through open, honest and timely communication.

On April 8, 2021, Skeena announced that it had returned its mineral tenures on the Spectrum property, enabling the TCG, the Province of BC, Skeena, the Nature Conservancy of Canada and BC Parks Foundation to collaborate in the creation of a nature conservancy, the Tenh Dẕetle Conservancy.

Further to this announcement, the Company announced that it had entered into an investment agreement with the TCG, pursuant to which the TCG invested $5,000,000 into Skeena by purchasing 399,285 Tahltan Investment Rights (“Rights”) for approximately $12.52 per Right. Each Right will vest by converting into one Common Share of the Company upon the achievement of key company and permitting milestones, or over time, as set forth within the agreement, with all Rights vesting by the third anniversary of the agreement. The investment closed on April 16, 2021.

On July 19, 2021, two of the four milestones related to the previously announced Investment Rights Agreement with the TCG were met. As a result of achieving these milestones, 199,642 Rights were converted into 199,642 common shares of the Company. On January 17, 2023, TCG, the Government of BC, and Skeena signed a permitting Process Charter agreement for the Eskay Creek Project, triggering a third milestone achievement, resulting in the conversion of 119,785 Rights into 119,785 common shares of the Company. On April 16, 2024, the fourth and final milestone was met, resulting in the conversion of 79,858 Rights into 79,858 common shares of the Company.

The Eskay Creek site is also subject to assertions of traditional use by Tsetsaut Skii km Lax Ha (“TSKLH”). Skeena has engaged with TSKLH for information sharing about the Eskay Creek Project and contracting and business opportunities related to our current activities.

Highway access to the Eskay Creek site and to tidewater ports for future shipping crosses through the Nass Wildlife Area, lands which are subject to the terms of the Nisga’a Final Agreement. Skeena has engaged with the Nisga’a Lisims Government directly and through the environmental assessment process to address Nisga’a concerns through the collaborative development of a Nisga’a process which meets requirements under paragraphs 8(e) and 8(f) of Chapter 10 in the Nisga’a Treaty and aligns with requirements in the Process Order. The highway access also passes through the Traditional Territory of the Gitanyow Hereditary Chiefs. Skeena has engaged with the Hereditary Chiefs Office to explain the project plans and request feedback.

Governance

In support of the culture and goals of the Company, and to better communicate them as the Company grows, Skeena has established formal mission, vision, and values statements and has implemented a suite of comprehensive board level policies. A set of complementary operational level policies were developed for staff and contractors and have been implemented to support the board level policies.

As part of the focus on ever-improving corporate governance, the Company has also engaged independent corporate governance consultants to further assist with improving Skeena’s policies and procedures as needed.

Environmental, Social and Governance Reporting

The Company has published its Sustainability Report for 2024 on its website. The report provides Skeena shareholders and stakeholders with a comprehensive overview of the Company’s environmental, social and governance practices, commitments and performance for the year.

The Gold Stream is accounted for as a derivative instrument measured at fair value through profit and loss. There was no initial fair value amount to record in the financial statements for the Gold Stream as at June 24, 2024 as it was determined that the terms of the contract at inception represented market rates. As there were no draws on the Gold Stream at June 30, 2024, no amounts related to the Gold Stream were recorded at that date.

Below is a reconciliation of the Gold Stream derivative liability for the nine months ended September 30, 2025:

****
Balance, December 31, 2023 $
Fair value of derivative liability at inception
Proceeds from Gold Stream (US$50,000) 71,623

Management Discussion and Analysis
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025
(Expressed in thousands of Canadian dollars within tables, unless otherwise noted)

Loss of $111,078,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 (“9M25”) was lower than the loss during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 (“9M24”) of $147,290,000.

The primary driver for the decrease in the loss during 9M25 compared to 9M24 was due to the decrease in exploration and evaluation expenses during 9M25 of $5,718,000 (9M24 - $99,288,000), as the Company transitioned into development phase at the end of December 2024, whereby costs related to Eskay Creek project are now being capitalized as mineral property, plant and equipment rather than expensed as exploration and evaluation costs.

Other contributing factors for the decrease in the loss was the gain recognized on revaluation of marketable securities during 9M25 of $28,767,000 (9M24 - loss of $249,000) as a result of the increase in the fair value of the Company’s holdings of TDG shares, and a gain of $3,216,000 (9M24 - $nil) recognized on the sale of the Sofia property to TDG. During 9M25, there was an increase in share-based payments of $18,065,000 (9M24 - $6,509,000) which largely relates to the PSUs granted in February 2025.

The decrease in loss was offset by the loss recognized on the revaluation of the derivative liability of $108,944,000 (9M24 - $39,181,000) which is estimated using a Monte-Carlo simulation and revalued at each reporting period. The change in the derivative liability was primarily driven by the increase in the gold forward curve during 9M25 compared to 9M24.

See “Summary of Quarterly Results” section below for discussion of variances between the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024.

Loss of $36,797,000 during the three months ended September 30, 2025 (“Q325”) was lower than the loss during the three months ended September 30, 2024 (“Q324”) of $84,887,000. The primary driver for the decrease in the loss during Q325 compared to Q324 was due to the significant decrease in exploration and evaluation expenses during Q325 of $2,681,000 (Q324 - $51,981,000) and a gain of $26,767,000 (Q324 - loss of $357,000) recognized on the revaluation of marketable securities due to the increase in the fair value of the Company’s holdings of TDG shares.

The decrease in loss was offset by the increase in loss recognized on revaluation of the derivative liability during Q325 of $48,940,000 (Q324 - $39,181,000), which was primarily driven by the increase in gold price during Q325, and the flow-through share recovery recognized during Q325 of $1,495,000 (Q324 - $11,712,000) on Canadian Development Expenses incurred during the period.

Loss of $36,797,000 during Q325 was higher than the loss during the three months ended June 30, 2025 (“Q225”) of $36,033,000. The main reason for the increase in loss during Q325 compared to Q225 was due to the change in fair value of derivative liability of $48,940,000 (Q225 - $29,794,000). The overall increase was offset by the gain on marketable securities of $26,767,000 (Q225 - $3,290,000) due to the appreciation in the fair value of the Company’s holdings of TDG shares.

Cash flows

Three Month Period Ended

The Company’s operating activities consumed net cash of $17,806,000 during Q325 (Q324 - $40,963,000). The decrease in cash used in operating activities during Q325 as compared to Q324 was due to significantly higher amounts incurred on exploration and evaluation expenditures during Q324 versus the capitalization of costs related to the development of Eskay Creek as a result of the Company’s transition to the development phase at the end of December 2024.

The Company’s investing activities consumed net cash of $103,385,000 during Q325 (Q324 - $4,880,000). The significant increase during Q325 compared to Q324 was due to Company’s transition to the development phase at the end of December 2024, with significant additions to mineral property, plant and equipment during Q325.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025
(Expressed in thousands of Canadian dollars within tables, unless otherwise noted)

During Q325, the Company’s financing activities provided net cash of $134,505,000 (Q324 - $3,003,000). The increase in cash provided by financing activities during Q325 compared to Q324 was primarily due to proceeds from the gold stream of $138,659,000 (Q324 - $6,808,000).

Nine Month Period Ended

The Company’s operating activities consumed net cash of $56,505,000 during 9M25 (9M24 - $86,126,000). The decrease in cash used in operating activities during 9M25 compared to 9M24 was primarily due significantly higher amounts spent on exploration and evaluation expenditures during 9M24 as a result of the Company’s transition to the development phase at the end of December 2024.

The Company’s investing activities consumed net cash of $215,004,000 during 9M25 (9M24 - $16,735,000). The significant increase during 9M25 compared to 9M24 was due to Company’s transition to the development phase at the end of December 2024 and the substantial activity at the Eskay Creek project during 9M25, including acquiring various equipment and advancing construction activities noted in the “2025 Site Works” section above. Additionally, $11,500,000 (9M24 - $nil) was used during 9M25 to acquire 21,666,667 common shares of TDG.

During 9M25, the Company’s financing activities provided net cash of $282,747,000 (9M24 - $96,615,000). The increase in cash provided by financing activities during 9M25 compared to 9M24 was primarily due to proceeds from the gold stream of $206,876,000 (9M24 - $6,808,000) and proceeds from the bought deal financing of $88,347,000 during 9M25 (9M24 - $nil). The Company also had higher proceeds from option exercises amounting to $7,626,000 during 9M25 (9M24 - $1,385,000) as a result of the higher share price during 9M25 compared to 9M24. The overall increase during 9M25 compared to 9M24 was also attributed to the $25,928,000 on repayment of the unsecured convertible debenture with Franco-Nevada Corporation during 9M24.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company has relied primarily on share issuances and proceeds from the Gold Stream to fund its operational activities and other business objectives. As at September 30, 2025, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $108,216,000.

As long as the Company meets the conditions precedent to the Senior Secured Term Loan, the Company anticipates that proceeds from the Project Financing Package will be sufficient to fund its capital requirements up to the commencement of commercial production at Eskay, which Management currently anticipate will be in 2027. Should the Company not be able to draw from these facilities, or in the event these facilities are insufficient to complete construction and commissioning of the mine, the Company will need to secure additional financing. In the longer term, the Company’s ability to continue as going concern is dependent upon successful execution of its business plan, including bringing the Eskay Creek project to profitable operation.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Certain accounting estimates have been identified as being critical to the presentation of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations as they require management to make subjective and/or complex judgments about matters that are inherently uncertain, or there is reasonable likelihood that materially different amounts could be reported under different conditions or using different assumptions and estimates. The Company’s significant accounting estimates and judgments are disclosed in Note 2 of the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024.

IFRS 18 introduces specific structure for the income statement by requiring income and expenses to be presented into 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 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 (loss) and how these items are classified.

The standard is applicable for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027, with retrospective application required. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of the standard.

Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, receivables, deposits, accounts payable, derivative liability and other liabilities.

For financial assets and financial liabilities at amortized cost, the fair value at initial recognition is determined in accordance with generally accepted pricing models based on discounted cash flow analysis or using prices from observable current market transactions. The fair value of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, receivables, deposits, accounts payable and other liabilities approximate their carrying amounts due to the short-term maturities of these instruments and/or the rate of interest being received or charged.

Financial instruments measured at fair value are classified into one of three levels in the fair value hierarchy according to the relative reliability of the inputs used to estimate the fair values. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are:

Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2 – Valuation techniques using inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices); and

Level 3 – Valuation techniques using inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data.

The carrying value of the Company’s marketable securities is based on the quoted market price of the shares in the publicly traded company to which the investment relates (Level 1).

The fair value of the derivative liability relates to the gold stream entered into with Orion is based on the Company's forecast of the timing of receipt of the US$200 million facility, the assumption that the US$100 million cost over-run facility will not be utilized, the Company's forecasts of the Eskay Creek completion date and gold production schedule, gold prices including their volatility, and the anticipated credit spreads of the Company and Orion (Level 3). The fair value of the Gold Stream derivative liability is calculated using a Monte-Carlo simulation as the value of the Gold Stream is linked to the gold price and the Company has an option to reduce the gold stream percentage. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the following assumptions were utilized:

**** September 30, 2025 **** December 31, 2024
Gold spot price (USD per ounce) $ 3,807 $ 2,611
Gold price implied volatility^1^ 19.85 % 15.17 %
Credit spread of the Company 16.28 % 16.42 %
Credit spread of Orion^2^ N/A 0.53 %

^(1)^ Estimate based on a Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) gold traded option with the closest maturity to the Gold Stream.
^(2)^ As it is a private investment entity, Orion’s credit spread is estimated based on the average option-adjusted spreads of selected constituents from the ICE BoA US Finance and Investment index with the term to maturity matching the future drawdown dates of the Gold Stream on each of the calculation dates. As of September 30, 2025, the US$200,000,000 facility has been fully drawn.
--- ---

There were no changes to the levels of fair value hierarchy for financial instruments measured at fair value during the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

The Company’s risk exposure and the impact on the Company’s financial instruments are summarized below:

Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of an unexpected loss if a counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. The Company's credit risk is primarily attributable to its cash and cash equivalents, receivables and deposits totaling $118,255,000 (December 31, 2024 – $102,069,000). The Company limits its exposure to credit risk by dealing with high credit quality counterparties. The Company's cash and cash equivalents are primarily held at large credit worthy Canadian financial institutions. The Company’s deposits are comprised primarily of construction deposits, collateral paid to the surety bond provider relating to reclamation security and security deposits on leased office premises, all of which are held by large and reputable vendors.

Market risk

Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in market prices. Market risk consists of interest rate risk, currency risk and other price risk.

· Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company is exposed to interest rate risk with respect to interest earned on cash and cash equivalents. Based on the balances of cash and cash equivalents at September 30, 2025, a 1% increase (decrease) in interest rates at September 30, 2025 would have decreased (increased) net loss before tax by $797,000. Once draws are made on the Senior Secured Term Loan facility, the Company will be exposed to interest rate risk on loan obligations that bear interest at a floating rate.

(Expressed in thousands of Canadian dollars within tables, unless otherwise noted)

The Company is also exposed to credit spread risk on the Gold Stream derivative liability, being the risk that the fair value of the financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in the Company's credit spread. An increase of 100 basis points in credit spread at September 30, 2025 would have decreased net loss before tax by $12,867,000. Conversely, a decrease of 100 basis points would have increased net loss before tax by $13,457,000.

The Company does not use derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to interest rate risk.

· Currency risk

Currency risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The functional currency of the Company is the Canadian dollar. The carrying amounts of financial assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the Canadian dollar are subject to fluctuations in the underlying foreign currency exchange rates and gains and losses on such items are included as a component of net loss for the period. At September 30, 2025, the Company has US$65,259,000 of cash and cash equivalents, US$632,000 in accounts payable and US$272,835,000 in derivative liability. Once draws are made on the Senior Secured Term Loan facility, the Company will be exposed to foreign exchange risk with respect to foreign denominated loan obligations as the future cash repayments of the Company's loan obligations, measured in Canadian dollars, being the Company's functional currency, will fluctuate because of changes in the US dollar exchange rate. The Company is exposed to foreign exchange risk on the Gold Stream derivative liability. The Company does not currently use derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to foreign exchange risk. Based on balances of these instruments at September 30, 2025, a 1% increase (decrease) in foreign exchange rates at September 30, 2025 would have decreased (increased) net loss before tax by $2,898,000.

· Other price risk

Other price risk is the risk that the fair values of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices, other than interest rate risk or currency risk. At September 30, 2025, the Company held investments in marketable securities which are measured at fair value. The fair values of investments in marketable securities are based on the closing share price of the securities at the reporting date. A 10% decrease in the share price of the Company's marketable securities at September 30, 2025 would have resulted in a $4,480,000 decrease to the carrying value of the Company's marketable securities and an increase of the same amount to the Company's unrealized loss on marketable securities. The Company is also exposed to gold price risk on the Gold Stream derivative liability, being the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of the financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market gold prices. A 5% increase in the forward gold price curve at September 30, 2025 would have increased net loss before tax by $9,881,000. Conversely, a 5% decrease would have decreased net loss before tax by $10,039,000. The Company does not use derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to gold price risk.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its obligations as they become due. The Company’s approach to managing liquidity risk is to ensure that it will have sufficient cash to meet liabilities when due. The Company manages its liquidity risk by forecasting cash flows from operations and anticipating any investing and financing activities. Management and the Board of Directors are actively involved in the review, planning and approval of significant expenditures and commitments.

(Expressed in thousands of Canadian dollars within tables, unless otherwise noted)

Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

The Company’s internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect all misstatements because of inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial reporting and disclosure. Additionally, 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 deterioration in the degree of compliance with the Company’s policies and procedures.

There were no changes to the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the three months ended September 30, 2025 that have materially affected, or are likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting or disclosure controls and procedures.

Limitations of Controls and Procedures

The CEO and CFO, in consultation with management, believe that any disclosure controls and procedures or internal control over financial reporting, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, they cannot provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been prevented or detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by unauthorized override of the controls.

The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Accordingly, because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

Risk Factors

A detailed description of the risk factors associated with the Company and its business is contained in the Company’s Annual Information Form for the most recent year ended December 31, 2024 which can be found on SEDAR+ and EDGAR.

Mineral exploration companies face a variety of risks and, while unable to eliminate all of them, the Company aims at managing and reducing such risks as much as possible.

Few exploration projects successfully achieve development due to factors that cannot be predicted or anticipated, and even one such factor may result in the economic viability of a project being detrimentally impacted such that it is neither feasible nor practical to proceed. The Company closely monitors its activities and those factors that could impact them and retains experienced consultants to assist in its risk management and to make timely adequate decisions.

Title to mineral properties involves certain inherent risks due to the difficulties of determining the validity of certain claims, as well as the potential for problems arising from the frequently ambiguous conveyance history characteristic of many mineral properties.

(Expressed in thousands of Canadian dollars within tables, unless otherwise noted)

The price of the commodities being explored is also a significant risk factor, as a substantial decline in their price could result in a decision to abandon a specific project.

Environmental laws and regulations could also impact the viability of a project. The Company believes it has complied in all material respects with these regulations, but there can be changes in legislation outside the Company’s control that could also add a risk factor to a project. Finally, operating in a specific country has legal, political and currency risks that must be carefully considered to ensure their level is commensurate to the Company’s assessment of the project.

Timelines for the environmental assessment and permit approvals are not guaranteed. Any statements made by the Company regarding the completion of environmental assessments or receipt of construction or operating permits are forecasts based on best information available at the time of the statement. Such timeline forecasts are subject to change based on a variety of technical, regulatory, and community relations factors.

Even though the Company secured the Project Financing Package in June 2024, there is no assurance that the proceeds from the financing will be sufficient to bring the Eskay Creek Project into commercial production or that conditions precedent to the remaining drawdowns of funds will be satisfied. A lack of further financing could result in delay or permanent postponement of the construction and commissioning of the Eskay Creek Project.

Development and Operational Risk

Mining development projects and mining operations generally involve a high degree of risk which could adversely impact our success and financial performance. Development projects typically require significant expenditures before production is possible. Actual capital or operating costs may be materially different from estimated capital or operating costs.

Development projects can also experience unexpected delays and problems during permitting, construction and development, during mine start-up or during production. The construction and development of a mining project is also subject to many other risks, including, without limitation, risks relating to:

Ability to obtain regulatory approvals or permits on a timely basis or at all and, if obtained, ability to comply with any conditions imposed by such regulatory approvals or permits and maintain such approvals and permits;
Obtaining and maintaining the social license to operate within the communities where Eskay Creek is located including, for example, the Tahltan's pending ratification of the terms of the Impact Benefit Agreement with the Company;
--- ---
Cost overruns due to, among other things, delays, changes to inputs or changes to engineering;
--- ---
Delays in construction and development of required infrastructure and variations from estimated or forecasted construction schedule;
--- ---
Technical complications, including adverse geotechnical conditions and other impediments to construction and development;
--- ---
Accuracy of Reserve and Resource estimates;
--- ---
Accuracy of engineering and changes in scope;
--- ---
Accuracy of estimated metallurgical recoveries;
--- ---
Accuracy of estimated plant throughput;
--- ---
Accuracy of the estimated capital required to build and operate the project;
--- ---
Adverse regulatory developments, including the imposition of new regulations;
--- ---
Fluctuation in prevailing prices for gold, silver and other metals, which may affect the profitability of the project;
--- ---
Community action or other disruptive activities by stakeholders;
--- ---

--- ---

Our operations are also subject to all of the hazards and risks normally encountered in the exploration and development of mineral projects and properties, including unusual and unexpected geologic formations, seismic activity, rock slides, ground instabilities or failures, mechanical  failures, flooding and other conditions involved in the drilling and removal of material, any of which could result in damage to, or destruction of facilities, damage to life or property, environmental damage and possible legal liability.

Most of the above factors are beyond the control of the Company. The exact effect of these factors cannot be accurately predicted, but any one of these factors or a combination thereof may have an adverse effect on the Company’s business.

We are subject to the continued listing criteria of the TSX and the NYSE and our failure to satisfy these criteria may result in delisting of our common shares.

Our common shares are currently listed on the TSX and the NYSE. In order to maintain the listing, we must maintain certain financial and share distribution targets, including maintaining a minimum number of public shareholders, and, in the case of the NYSE, a minimum share price. In addition to objective standards, the TSX or the NYSE may delist the securities of any issuer if, in its opinion: the issuer’s financial condition and/or operating results appear unsatisfactory; if the Company fails to accurately report financial performance on a timely basis; if it appears that the extent of public distribution or the aggregate market value of the security has become so reduced as to make continued listing on the TSX or the NYSE inadvisable; if the issuer sells or disposes of principal operating assets or ceases to be an operating company; if an issuer fails to comply with the listing requirements of TSX or the NYSE; or if any other event occurs or any condition exists which makes continued listing on the TSX or the NYSE, in the opinion of the TSX or the NYSE, inadvisable.

If the TSX or the NYSE delists our common shares, investors may face material adverse consequences, including, but not limited to, a lack of trading market for the common shares, reduced liquidity, decreased analyst coverage of the Company, and an inability for us to obtain additional financing to fund our operations.

Economic and Other Risks

Certain global developments have resulted in additional risk factors that have the potential to introduce uncertainty in the Company’s future operations, particularly during the construction phase of the Eskay Creek Project, namely:

Changes in general economic conditions, the financial markets, tariffs, inflation and interest rates and the demand and market price for our costs, such as labour, steel, concrete, diesel fuel, electricity and other forms of energy, mining equipment, and fluctuations in exchange rates, particularly with respect to the value of the U.S. dollar and Canadian dollar.

(Expressed in thousands of Canadian dollars within tables, unless otherwise noted)

Uncertainties resulting from the proposed tariffs by the United States, Russia-Ukraine and Israel-Hamas conflicts,  and the accompanying international response, created increased volatility in commodity markets (including oil and gas prices), and disrupted international trade and financial markets, all of which have an ongoing and uncertain effect on global economics, supply chains, availability of materials and equipment, and execution timelines for project development. To date, the Company’s operations have not been materially negatively affected by the ongoing conflicts, but should these conflicts go on for an extended period of time, or should other geopolitical disputes and conflicts emerge in other regions, these could result in material adverse effects to the Company.

Acquisition, Business Arrangements and Transaction Risk

The Company may seek new mining and development opportunities in the mining industry as well as business arrangements or transactions. In pursuit of such opportunities, the Company may fail to select appropriate acquisition targets or negotiate acceptable arrangements, including arrangements to finance acquisitions or integrate the acquired businesses and their workforce into the Company. Ultimately, any acquisitions would be accompanied by risks, which could include change in commodity prices, difficulty with integration, failure to realize anticipated synergies, significant unknown liabilities, delays in regulatory approvals and exposure to litigation.

There may be an inability to complete the investment on the proposed terms or at all due to delays in obtaining or inability to obtain required regulatory and exchange approvals. Any issues that the Company encounters in connection with an acquisition, business arrangement or transaction could have an adverse effect on its business, results of operations and financial position.

No History of Dividends

The Company has not, since the date of its incorporation, declared or paid any cash dividends on its common shares and does not currently have a policy with respect to the payment of dividends. The payment of dividends in the future will depend on the earnings, if any, and the Company’s financial condition and such other factors as the Board of Directors considers appropriate.

Responsibility for Technical Information

The technical and scientific information relating to exploration activities disclosed in this document was prepared under the supervision of and verified and reviewed by Adrian Newton, P. Geo, the Company's Vice President, Exploration, and a "Qualified Person" as defined in NI 43-101. Data verification involves data input and review by senior project geologists at site, scheduled weekly and monthly reporting to senior exploration management and the completion of project site visits by senior exploration management to review the status of ongoing project activities and data underlying reported results. All drilling results for exploration projects or supporting resource and reserve estimates referenced in this MD&A have been previously reported in news releases disclosures by the Company and have been prepared in accordance with NI 43-101. The sampling and assay data from drilling programs are monitored through the implementation of a quality assurance - quality control ("QA-QC") program designed to follow industry best practice.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company has not entered into any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Information Concerning Estimates of Measured, Indicated and Inferred Resources

The mineral reserves and mineral resources included or incorporated by reference in this MD&A have been estimated in accordance with NI 43-101 as required by Canadian securities regulatory authorities, which differ from the requirements of U.S. securities laws. The terms “mineral reserve”, “proven mineral reserve”, “probable mineral reserve”, “mineral resource”, “measured mineral resource”, “indicated mineral resource” and “inferred mineral resource” are Canadian mining terms as defined in accordance with NI 43-101 and the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (“CIM”) “CIM Definition Standards – For Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves” adopted by the CIM Council (as amended, the “CIM Definition Standards”).

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) has mineral property disclosure rules in Regulation S-K Subpart 1300 applicable to issuers with a class of securities registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), which rules were updated effective February 25, 2019 (the “SEC Mineral Property Rules”) with compliance required for the first fiscal year beginning on or after January 1, 2021. Skeena is not required to provide disclosure on its mineral properties under the SEC Mineral Property Rules or their predecessor rules under SEC Industry Guide 7 because it is a “foreign private issuer” under the Exchange Act and is entitled to file reports with the SEC under a multijurisdictional disclosure system (“MJDS”). The SEC Mineral Property Rules include terms describing mineral reserves and mineral resources that are substantially similar, but not always identical, to the corresponding terms under the CIM Definition Standards. The SEC Mineral Property Rules allow estimates of “measured”, “indicated” and “inferred” mineral resources. The SEC Mineral Property Rules’ definitions of “proven mineral reserve” and “probable mineral reserve” are substantially similar to the corresponding CIM Definition Standards. Investors are cautioned that, while these terms are substantially similar to definitions in the CIM Definition Standards, differences exist between the definitions under the SEC Mineral Property Rules and the corresponding definitions in the CIM Definition Standards. Accordingly, there is no assurance any mineral reserves or mineral resources that Skeena may report as “proven mineral reserves”, “probable mineral reserves”, “measured mineral resources”, “indicated mineral resources” and “inferred mineral resources” under NI 43-101 would be the same had Skeena prepared the mineral reserve or mineral resource estimates under the standards adopted under the SEC Mineral Property Rules.

In addition, investors are cautioned not to assume that any part or all of the mineral resources constitute or will be converted into reserves. These terms have a great amount of uncertainty as to their economic and legal feasibility. Accordingly, investors are cautioned not to assume that any “measured”, “indicated”, or “inferred” mineral resources that Skeena reports in this MD&A are or will be economically or legally mineable. Further, “inferred mineral resources” have a great amount of uncertainty as to their existence, and great uncertainty as to their economic and legal feasibility. It cannot be assumed that all or any part of an “inferred mineral resource” will ever be upgraded to a higher category. Under Canadian securities laws, estimate of “inferred mineral resources” may not form the basis of feasibility or prefeasibility studies, except in rare cases where permitted under NI 43-101.For these reasons, the mineral reserve and mineral resource estimates and related information in this MD&A may not be comparable to similar information made public by U.S. companies subject to the reporting and disclosure requirements under the U.S. federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder.

Contingencies

Due to the nature of Company’s operations, various legal and tax matters arise in the ordinary course of business. The Company accrues such items as liabilities when the amount can be reasonably estimated, and settlement of the matter is probable to require an outflow of future economic benefits from the Company.

In 2022, the Chief Gold Commissioner and Supreme Court of British Columbia asserted, in error, that the Company did not own the mineral rights to materials previously deposited in the Albino Lake Storage Facility by previous operators. In July 2024, the British Columbia Court of Appeal overturned the decision of the Chief Gold Commissioner and Supreme Court of British Columbia, and referred the matter back to the Chief Gold Commissioner for rehearing and reconsideration. The counterparty in the matter sought leave to appeal to the Supreme Court of Canada but their application was dismissed. This allows the Company to complete the rehearing before the new Gold Commissioner. As the materials contained in the Albino Lake Storage Facility were not included in the Company’s Eskay Creek Prefeasibility Study (2021), Feasibility Study (2022) nor in the updated Feasibility Study (2023), the outcome of this matter is not expected to have any effect on the carrying value of Eskay.

Contractual Obligations

At September 30, 2025, the Company had the following contractual obligations outstanding:
