TRX Gold Corporation
Notes to the Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
For the three and nine months ended May 31, 2026 and 2025
(Unaudited)
(Expressed in Thousands of US dollars, except for share and per share amounts)
| 1. | Nature of operations |
TRX Gold Corporation (“TRX Gold” or the “Company”) was incorporated in the Province of Alberta on July 5, 1990 under the Business Corporations Act (Alberta). On March 27, 2025, the Company completed its continuance from the jurisdiction of the Province of Alberta into the Province of British Columbia under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) (“Continuance”). The Company’s principal business activity is the exploration, development and production of mineral property interests in the United Republic of Tanzania (“Tanzania”).
Subsequent to the Continuance, the Company’s registered office is 550 Burrard Street, Suite 2501, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6C 2B5, Canada. The Company’s principal place of business is 277 Lakeshore Road E, Suite 403, Oakville, Ontario, L6J 6J3, Canada.
The Company’s common shares are listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange in Canada (TSX: TRX) and NYSE American in the United States of America (NYSE American: TRX).
The Company is primarily focused on development and mining operations, exploring, and evaluating its mineral properties. The business of exploring and mining for minerals involves a high degree of risk. The underlying value of the mineral properties is dependent upon the existence and economic recovery of mineral resources and reserves, the ability to raise long-term financing to complete the development of the properties, government policies and regulations, and upon future profitable production or, alternatively, upon the Company’s ability to dispose of its interest on an advantageous basis; all of which are uncertain.
| 2. | Basis of preparation |
| a) | Statement of compliance |
The Company’s interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standards 34, Interim Financial Reporting, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). The interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all disclosures required by IFRS Accounting Standards (“IFRS”) for annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended August 31, 2025.
These interim condensed consolidated financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors of the Company on July 14 2026.
| b) | Basis of presentation and measurement |
These interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost basis, except for certain financial assets and liabilities which are measured at fair value as disclosed in Note 21. All amounts in these interim condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in United States dollars with all amounts rounded to the nearest thousands, except for share and per share data, or as otherwise noted. Reference herein of $ or USD is to United States dollars and C$ or CAD is to Canadian dollars.
| 3. | Material accounting policies, judgements and estimates |
The accounting policies, judgements, and estimates applied in these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements are consistent with those set out in Notes 3 and 4 of the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended August 31, 2025.

Future changes in accounting policies not yet effective in the current period
Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements (IFRS 18)
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 replaces IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements. It carries forward many requirements from IAS 1 unchanged. IFRS 18 introduces significant changes to the structure of a company’s income statement and transparency in the presentation of management's non-IFRS performance measures and less aggregation of items into large and single numbers. IFRS 18 applies for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027. Earlier application is permitted.
The Company will adopt the amendment on the date it becomes effective and based on the currently available information. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the amendment on its consolidated financial statements prior to the effective date of January 1, 2027
Amendments to the Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments (Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7)
In May 2024, the IASB issued amendments to IFRS 9, Financial Instruments and IFRS 7, Financial Instruments: Disclosures. The amendments clarify the date of recognition and derecognition of financial assets and liabilities, clarify and add further guidance for assessing whether a financial asset meets the solely payments of principal and interest criterion, add new disclosures for financial instruments with contractual terms that can change cash flows, and update the disclosure for equity investments designated at FVOCI. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2026, with earlier adoption permitted.
The Company will apply the amendments in its financial statements beginning September 1, 2026.

| (1) | Sales tax receivables consist of harmonized services tax and value added tax (“VAT”) due from Canadian and Tanzanian tax authorities, respectively. |
| The Tanzania Revenue Authority ("TRA") operates a tax offset program under which approved tax refund claims, including VAT refunds, may be applied against outstanding tax liabilities, including corporate income tax. | |
The process for confirming VAT refund claims involves a detailed review by the TRA to verify the accuracy and eligibility of each claim. This review includes an examination of supporting documentation, such as invoices and the underlying transactions giving rise to the VAT, to determine whether the amounts qualify for refund under the applicable tax legislation. Upon approval of a VAT refund claim, the TRA applies any outstanding tax liabilities against the approved refund balance before remitting any remaining amount to the taxpayer. |

| As at May 31, 2026, the Company had recoverable Tanzanian VAT of US$ |
| Historically, the approval and settlement of VAT refund claims in Tanzania have been subject to delays. To address this, the Finance Act, 2026 introduced provisions requiring the TRA to pay interest on approved VAT refunds that remain unpaid for more than one month after the date of approval. Management expects that this legislative change will improve the timeliness of VAT refund settlements and enhance the overall administration of the VAT refund process. |
The Company held no collateral for any receivables. During the three and
nine months ended May 31, 2026, the Company recovered VAT refunds from the TRA of $nil and $

| 8. | Income tax |
Taxation on income comprises current and deferred income tax. Current income tax is generally the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year calculated using rates enacted or substantively enacted at the statements of financial position date in the countries where the Company’s subsidiaries operate and generate taxable income.
The corporate income tax rate in Tanzania remained unchanged from the prior year at 30%. Under Tanzanian tax legislation, a company may utilize tax loss carry forwards to offset up to 60% (2025 - 60%) of taxable income in a given year, with the remaining 40% (2025 - 40%) subject to income tax at the statutory rate of 30%. Accordingly, until tax loss carry forwards are fully utilized, Buckreef Gold Company Limited (“Buckreef”) is subject to an effective income tax rate of approximately 12% (2025 - 12%).
During the nine months ended May 31, 2026, Buckreef fully utilized its remaining Tanzanian tax loss carry forwards of approximately $1.9 million.
Deferred income tax is recognized using the liability method, based on temporary differences between consolidated financial statements carrying amounts of assets liabilities and their respective income tax bases. The carrying value of Buckreef’s Mineral Property, Plant and Equipment is higher than their tax written down values due to historical mining incentives in Tanzania and accelerated depreciation for tax purposes. The taxable temporary difference between the carrying value of Mineral Property, Plant and Equipment and its tax basis in excess of available tax loss carryforwards resulted in a deferred tax liability.

The Tanzania Revenue Authority ("TRA") administers a tax offset program under which approved VAT refund claims may be applied against outstanding tax liabilities, including corporate income tax.
The Company intends to utilize this program to offset a portion of its recoverable VAT against its current income tax liability as eligible refund claims are approved by the TRA.
| 9. | Deferred revenue |
On January 7, 2025, the Company entered into a Gold Prepayment Facility with Auramet International, Inc. (“Auramet Gold Prepayment Facility”) through which Buckreef may, at its discretion, sell up to an aggregate amount of 1,000 ounces of gold, up to 21 calendar days prior to delivery, on a revolving basis for a one-year term.
On September 25, 2025, the Company amended the terms of the Auramet Gold Prepayment Facility to sell up to an aggregate amount of 1,500 ounces of gold for three months.

| 10. | Lease liabilities |
Lease liabilities are measured at the discounted value of future lease payments using the lease-specific incremental borrowing rate. Lease payments are apportioned between interest expense and the reduction of the liability. Interest expense is based on the lease-specific incremental borrowing rate at the commencement date of the lease. The incremental borrowing rate differs between each category of asset, location of asset and the duration of the lease. The Company’s lease liabilities are primarily comprised of mobile and other equipment for use in Buckreef’s mining operations.

Fair value of financial instruments
The following table sets out the classification of the Company’s financial instruments as at May 31, 2026 and August 31, 2025:
| Schedule of financial instruments | ||||||||
| May 31, 2026 | August 31, 2025 | |||||||
| Financial Assets | ||||||||
| Measured at amortized cost | ||||||||
| Amounts receivable | $ | $ | ||||||
| Measured at fair value through profit or loss | ||||||||
| Cash | ||||||||
| Financial Liabilities | ||||||||
| Measured at amortized cost | ||||||||
| Amounts payables and accrued liabilities | ||||||||
| Borrowings | ||||||||
| Measured at fair value through profit or loss | ||||||||
| Derivative financial instrument liabilities | ||||||||
Cash and derivative warrant liabilities are classified as measured at fair value through profit and loss. Amounts receivable, amounts payable, and borrowings are classified as measured at amortized cost. The carrying value of the Company’s amounts receivable, amounts payable, and borrowings approximate their fair value due to the relatively short-term nature of these instruments.
Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time based on relevant market information and information about financial instruments. These estimates are subject to and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.
The Company classifies its financial instruments carried at fair value according to a three-level hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used in making the fair value measurements. The three levels of fair value hierarchy, giving the highest priority to Level 1 inputs and the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs, are as follows:
| · | Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; |
| · | Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for assets and liabilities, either directly or indirectly; and |
| · | Level 3 – Inputs for assets or liabilities that are not based on observable market data. |
As at May 31, 2026 and August 31, 2025, cash was classified as Level 1 and derivative financial instruments (Note 12) were classified as Level 3 under the fair value hierarchy.

TRX Gold Corporation
TRX Gold is a high margin and growing gold company advancing the Buckreef Gold Project in Tanzania. Buckreef Gold includes an established open pit operation and 2,000 tonnes per day process plant with upside potential demonstrated in the May 2025 PEA. The PEA outlines average gold production of 62,000 oz per annum over 17.6 years at 3,000 tonnes per day (“tpd”) of throughput capacity, and $1.9 - $2.6 billion pre-tax NPV5% at average life of mine gold price of $4,000/oz - $5,000/oz. The Buckreef Gold Project hosts a Measured and Indicated Mineral Resource of 10.8 million tonnes (“MT”) at 2.57 grams per tonne (“g/t”) gold containing 893,000 ounces (“oz”) of gold and an Inferred Mineral Resource of 9.1 MT at 2.47 g/t gold for 726,000 oz of gold. The leadership team is focused on creating both near-term and long-term shareholder value by increasing gold production to generate positive cash flow to fund the expansion as outlined in the PEA, grow Mineral Resources through exploration, and update the PEA with a larger capacity beyond 3,000 tpd. TRX Gold’s actions are led by the highest environmental, social and corporate governance (“ESG”) standards, evidenced by the relationships and programs that the Company has developed during its nearly two decades of presence in the Geita Region, Tanzania.

Highlights – Third Quarter and Year to Date 2026
The Company continued its strong production momentum by delivering record processing plant throughput and improved recoveries during Q3 2026, which drove strong quarterly production and a record buildup of gold-in-circuit inventory, demonstrating the operational strength and scalability of Buckreef Gold. With production increasing by 58% year-over-year and recoveries improving to 84.9%, the Company continues to demonstrate leverage to high gold spot prices, realizing robust gross profit margins and strong cash flow generation, including record quarterly adjusted EBITDA of $20.7 million during Q3 2026. During Q3 2026, the Company was able to continue to improve its working capital position to approximately 2.2 times, including a cash position of $26.8 million, while continuing to invest in the future growth and development of Buckreef Gold. During Q3 2026, the Company announced robust recovery results from metallurgical testwork above what was assumed in the PEA as part of its current flowsheet optimization and future expanded processing plant development. Testwork has led to a letter of award for a new 3,500 tpd mill, operating in conjunction with the existing, upgraded 2,000 tpd plant, which is a much larger processing facility than the 3,000 tpd mill that was initially contemplated in the PEA. The expanded plant is now expected to produce greater than 62 thousand ounces of average annual gold as published in the PEA. The Company also initiated a revision of the life-of-mine plan, which has the potential to extend the open pit and add recoverable ounces, improving the overall economics of the project. During Q3 2026, the Company also made significant progress on its life-of-mine tailings storage facility. All required regulatory approvals and permits have been received, a construction contractor has been selected, and Stage 1 is targeted for completion in Q2 2027. The Company’s short-to-medium term priorities are to continue to expand and upgrade processing capacity above the PEA, advance exploration drilling in key areas, continue to strengthen liquidity, and use cash flow from operations to self-fund value creating activities.

| · | During Q3 2026 the Company continued to make progress on upgrades to the 2,000 tpd processing plant, including accelerated manufacturing for several key components, including installation of the pre-leach thickener, upgraded agitators & interstage screens, Aachen reactor, oxygen plant, apron feeder and belt magnet. The plant upgrades are in various stages of completion and have already begun to boost plant reliability and performance as evidenced by an increase in plant throughput (1,690 tpd) and an improvement in recovery (84.9%) in Q3 2026. |
| · | During Q3 2026, the Company reported results of ongoing metallurgical testwork as part of its current flowsheet optimisation and future expanded processing plant development. Recovery rates between 89% - 92% were achieved from metallurgical test work, which is above the 88% recovery rate assumed in the PEA. Testwork has led the Company to specify a Semi Autogenous Grind (“SAG”) / Ball mill combination of 3,500 tpd. A letter of award for the new SAG and Ball mills has been initiated with final contract execution expected in Q4 2026 and an initial estimated completion date of 12 – 18 months. The existing, upgraded 2,000 tpd processing plant will be available to continue operating in conjunction with the new 3,500 tpd SAG / Ball mill processing plant, providing a significant upgrade in processing capacity versus the 3,000 tpd assumed in the PEA. The increase in throughput from the expanded processing plant is expected to produce average annual gold production in excess of the 62,000 ounces of gold originally anticipated in the PEA. |
| · | During Q3 2026 the Company also initiated a revision of the life-of-mine plan as a result of the expected increase in processing capacity and the increase in gold price well above the PEA reserve estimate. Preliminary analysis indicates the potential for an expanded open pit, which could extend open pit operations, defer commencement of underground mining in the Main Zone and enhance total recoverable ounces. The Company is also evaluating the potential for an earlier start to underground mining of Stamford Bridge, alongside accelerating mining of the Eastern Porphyry. This is expected to improve the overall economics of the project. Throughput rates for the updated PEA will be determined by the revised mine plan, which will feed the new 3,500 tpd processing plant and existing, upgraded 2,000 tpd processing plant. |

| Management’s Discussion and Analysis May 31, 2026 |
Recent Company Developments:
| · | TRX Gold Reports Robust Recovery Rates from Recent Study and Significant Increase in Plant Expansion Scope: In Q3 2026, the Company announced results of ongoing metallurgical test work at Buckreef Gold as part of its current flowsheet optimization and future expanded processing plant development. The Company is in the process of planning and executing a much larger processing plant expansion than originally anticipated in the May 2025 PEA at Buckreef Gold. |
| · | Robust Recovery Rates Achieved: Recovery rates between 89% - 92% were achieved from the additional test work, which is in line with prior studies and above the 88% recovery rate assumed in the PEA. The test work provided a more comprehensive understanding of optimal grind size and achievable mine feed from the mine plan, which has led the Company to specify a SAG / Ball mill combination of 3,500 tpd. A letter of award for the new SAG mill has been initiated with final contract execution expected in Q4 2026 and an initial estimated completion date of 12 – 18 months. |
| · | Advancing Existing Processing Plant Upgrades and Increased Expansion: The existing 2,000 tpd processing plant is currently undergoing significant upgrades and will be available to continue operating in conjunction with the new 3,500 tpd SAG mill processing plant, providing a significant upgrade in processing capacity versus the 3,000 tpd assumed in the PEA. Notable upgrades to the existing processing plant include completed installation and commissioning of upgraded agitators & interstage screens, apron feeder, belt magnet, and a new tertiary crusher. A pre-leach thickener is installed and will be commissioned in Q4 2026. These upgrades are currently in progress and are expected to be completed by calendar Q4 2026. A new Adsorption, Desorption and Recovery (“ADR”) plant and new gold room will be shipped in Q4 2026 and will be commissioned in early Q1 2027. |
| · | Strategic Mine Planning to Expand Further: The Company has also progressed a revision of the life-of-mine plan as a result of the expected increase in processing capacity and the increase in gold price well above the PEA reserve estimate assumption of US$1,900/oz. Preliminary analysis indicates the potential for an expanded third cutback at the Main Pit, which could extend open-pit operations, defer commencement of underground mining in the Main Zone and enhance total recoverable ounces at Buckreef Gold. This is expected to improve the overall economics of the project. The Company is also evaluating the potential for an earlier start to underground mining at the Stamford Bridge orebody, alongside accelerating mining of the expanded Eastern Porphyry pit. The Company has hired P&E Mining Consultants Inc. to update the PEA, which is expected to be completed in calendar Q2 2027. |
| · | Planning for Expanded Mill Throughput: Mine planning and scheduling as part of updated PEA will incorporate throughput rates for the new 3,500 tpd plant and existing, upgraded 2,000 tpd processing plant, with the goal of maximizing project value. The increase in throughput from the expanded processing capacity is expected to increase average annual gold production in excess of the 62,000 ounces of gold originally anticipated in the May 2025 PEA. Throughput rates for the updated PEA will be determined by the revised mine plan, which will feed the new 3,500 tpd processing plant and existing, upgraded 2,000 tpd processing plant. |

Projects Update – Third Quarter and Year to Date 2026
| · | During Q3 2026, the Company continued advancing upgrades to its processing plant, including: commissioning of the oxygen plant which has added slurry oxidation capacity through improved air blowers and oxygen dispersion, installation of (i) the pre-leach thickener, which has entered the final stages of commissioning with completion of the remaining electrical works and PLC programming expected during Q4 2026; (ii) upgraded leach tank agitators and interstage screens, with planned leach tank refurbishment activities to be conducted throughout Q4 2026; (iii) the Aachen reactor, which is now operating with the fully commissioned oxygen plant; and (iv) the new ADR plant and gold room, where engineering, fabrication and delivery continue to progress, with delivery targeted for Q4 2026 and commissioning expected in Q1 2027. |
| · | During Q3 2026, the Company continued advancing its plant expansion program. Following completion of the tender evaluation process and finalization of equipment sizing and technical specifications, the Company initiated a letter of award for the new SAG and Ball Mill grinding circuit, with final contract execution expected in Q4 2026. Fabrication is scheduled to commence, with planning and preparation for foundation works expected to begin in Q4 2026 and an initial expected commissioning within 12-18 months. In parallel, a new tertiary cone crusher was successfully installed and commissioned during the Q3 2026 and is now operating as part of the crushing circuit. Metallurgical testwork supporting the expanded process flowsheet has been substantially completed, allowing for the finalization of equipment sizing and specifications for the flotation circuit, fine grind mill, concentrate thickener, and intensive leach circuit. While tenders for this equipment have been completed, the Company is currently performing trade-off studies to evaluate how much additional recovery can be achieved in the current flowsheet including the pre-leach thickener and excluding a flotation and fine grind circuit. |
| · | The plant upgrade and expansion projects are at various stages of development and implementation and are expected to progressively increase processing throughput, improve recovery, and reduce unit operating costs as they are commissioned through to their respective scheduled completion dates. |
| · | During Q3 2026, the Company successfully completed the final raise of TSF 2.2, extending available tailings storage capacity into Q2 2027 and ensuring uninterrupted support for ongoing operations while the next phase of tailings infrastructure is developed. In parallel, the Company made significant progress on TSF 3.0, its long-term, life-of-mine tailings storage facility. All required regulatory approvals and permits have been received, and a construction contractor has been selected. Mobilization and construction activities are scheduled to commence immediately, with Stage 1 targeted for completion in Q2 2027. The successful completion of the TSF 2.2 raise, together with the commencement of TSF 3.0 construction, provides a seamless transition between short-term and long-term tailings storage requirements. This phased approach continues to mitigate operational risk, maintain storage capacity ahead of production demands, and support the Company's ongoing expansion strategy. |

Operational and Financial Details – Third Quarter and Year to Date 2026
Mining and Processing
| · | During the three and nine months ended May 31, 2026, Buckreef Gold reported zero LTI at site, recorded a safety incident frequency rate of zero (per million hours), including contractors, and achieved 6.4 million hours of LTI free work. |
| · | During Q3 2026, Buckreef Gold poured 7,426 ounces of gold, an increase of 58% from Q3 2025 (4,687 ounces of gold), and sold 6,983 ounces of gold, up 75% from 3,995 ounces of gold sold in Q3 2025. Gold production in Q3 2026 was higher than the prior year comparative period as the Company achieved record quarterly processing plant throughput of 1,690 tpd, a 16% increase from the prior year (Q3 2025: 1,461 tpd), combined with a higher average head grade of 1.96 g/t (Q3 2025: 1.72 g/t) and higher average recovery of 84.9%, up from 67.0% in Q3 2025. The Company achieved record throughput in Q3 2025 as the Company focused on reducing mill feed size, maximising mill power and reducing unplanned downtime. The higher average head grade was due to the mine sequence where the open pit mine accessed higher grade ore blocks in Q3 2026, following completion of the scheduled Stage 1 stripping campaign during fiscal 2025. The higher average throughput and recovery in Q3 2026 was mainly due to a series of plant optimization initiatives, including improved feed size and quality to the mills, supplementary crushing and existing crushing circuit enhancement, improved leach slurry density and residence time, improved reagent management and streamlined elution and electrowinning activities. During Q3 2026, the Company continued to advance on several near-term plant enhancements to further improve gold recoveries, including the addition of a pre-leach thickener (to further improve consistency of leaching density and reduce grind size), upgrades to the existing elution plant, and added slurry oxidation through the Aachen reactor and Oxygen plant. The Company expects plant throughput and recovery to continue to improve over the year as further plant enhancements in the crushing, grinding and leaching circuits are commissioned. |
| · | For the nine months ended May 31, 2026, the Company produced 21,476 ounces of gold (2025: 12,532 ounces) and sold 20,789 ounces of gold (2025: 12,236 ounces). Gold production was higher than the prior year comparative period as a result of higher average head grade of 1.93 g/t (2025: 1.38 g/t), higher average recovery of 81.4% (2025: 71%), and higher mill throughput of 1,597 tpd (2025: 1,474 tpd). The higher average head grade resulted from access to higher grade ore blocks following completion of the Stage 1 stripping campaign in 2025. The higher average recovery was mainly due to a series of plant optimization initiatives, including (i) increasing carbon inventory in the Carbon in Leach (CIL) circuit to improve gold adsorption and reduce gold loss in the solution tails; (ii) increasing pH in the CIL circuit by adding additional lime to improve leaching kinetics and reduce cyanide consumption; (iii) increasing dissolved oxygen levels to improve leaching kinetics by reducing the solid tails, extending leach residence time at the expense of grind size by increasing leach feed density. Mill throughput was, on average, higher than the prior year comparative period as the Company continued to focus on reducing mill feed size, maximising mill power and reducing unplanned downtime. |
| · | Total ore tonnes mined of 183 kt in Q3 2026 were 25% higher than the prior year period (Q3 2025: 147 kt) due to relative positioning of the Stage 1 pit. Waste tonnes mined of 2,272 kt during Q3 2026 were 90% higher than the prior year period (Q3 2025: 1,195 kt) primarily due to an increased contractor fleet to allow accelerated Stage 2 stripping of the Main Pit which will allow for mill feed in fiscal 2027-2029. The higher proportion of waste to ore tonnes contributed to a higher strip ratio of 12.4 (waste:ore tonnes) in Q3 2026 compared to the prior year period (Q3 2025: 8.1 waste:ore tonnes). For the nine months ended May 31, 2026, the Company continued to focus on Stage 2 stripping of the Main Pit to benefit mill feed beginning in fiscal 2027. As a result, total waste tonnes mined of 5,429 kt were higher than the prior year period (2025: 2,937 kt), while total ore tonnes mined of 551 kt were also higher than the prior year period (2025: 364 kt). |
| 7 |
| Management’s Discussion and Analysis May 31, 2026 |
| · | Mining costs per tonne of $3.02 in Q3 2026 were lower than the prior year comparative period (Q3 2025: $3.63) mainly due to finalization of the mining contract renegotiation during the quarter, which has seen unit cost reductions due to an increased rate of mining as well as a contract extension until 2029. Additionally, there was a comparatively higher proportion of higher, free-dig volumes that were moved as the Company accessed the higher areas of the Stage 2 cutback. Mining costs for remainder of fiscal 2026 are expected to remain in line with Q3 2026 costs of approximately $3.00 per tonne. For the nine months ended May 31, 2026, mining cost per tonne of $3.93 were slightly higher than the prior year comparative period (2025: $3.82 per tonne) mainly due to an increase in contractor haulage cost during the first half of fiscal 2026, an increase in drilling and blasting cost to access fresh (sulphide) rock in Q1 and Q2 2026. |
| · | Processing cost per tonne of $25.66 in Q3 2026 were higher than the prior year comparative period (Q3 2025: $14.60 per tonne) mainly due to an increase in consumption of key reagents and mill consumables, all required to improve throughput, metallurgical recovery and elution stripping, which has resulted in a 24% improvement in metallurgical recovery, a 16% increase in throughput and a 9% reduction in cash cost1 per ounce. Additional costs incurred during Q3 2026 that impacted processing cost per tonne included the use of a contractor crushing plant to supplement the Buckreef Gold crushing circuit while it underwent upgrades, higher diesel consumption due to increased use of gensets following grid power quality and interruption issues, higher diesel prices, and the purchase of a significant inventory of maintenance spares to ensure higher plant availability. The increase in plant recovery in Q3 2026 of 84.9% (2025: 67%) more than offset the increase in processing cost per tonne. For the nine months ended May 31, 2026, processing cost of $23.86 per tonne were higher than the prior year comparative period (2025: $14.20 per tonne) mainly due to an increase in reagent and consumable consumption which enhanced plant recovery (2026: 81.4%, 2025: 71%). The processing plant upgrades to the 2,000 tpd plant have already begun to boost plant reliability and performance as evidenced by an increase in plant throughput and an improvement in recovery in Q3 2026. The commissioning of the oxygen plant, which is operating alongside the Aachen reactor, have begun to improve slurry oxidation and are expected to reduce the consumption of hydrogen peroxide in the future. Additionally, commissioning of the pre-leach thickener in Q4 2026 is expected to improve gold concentration and the installation of the ADR plant in Q1 2027 is expected to improve carbon activity progressively benefitting processing cost per tonne over the remainder of fiscal 2026 and throughout fiscal 2027. |
Fiscal 2026 Outlook
| · | For the nine months ended May 31, 2026, the Company produced 21,476 ounces of gold and continues to expect full year gold production to be in the range of 25,000 - 30,000 ounces for fiscal 2026. The Company continues to expect gold production to be highest in Q4 2026 due to the scheduled mine sequence coupled with the completion of plant upgrades and enhancements which are expected to improve throughput and recoveries. Total average cash cost1 for the nine months ended May 31, 2026, was $1,555 per ounce and the Company continues to expect full year total average cash cost1 to be in the range of $1,400 - $1,600 per ounce for fiscal 2026. The Company continues to expect cash cost to be lowest in Q4 2026 in line with the production weighting and following completion of the plant optimization initiatives which are expected to benefit operating and processing costs. |

Inventory
| · | As at May 31, 2026, the ROM pad stockpile contained 528,635 tonnes at an average grade of 1.14 g/t with an estimated 19,373 ounces of contained gold. A further stockpile of crushed mill feed of 2,777 tonnes at 2.17 g/t containing an estimated 193 ounces of gold has been accumulated between the crusher and mill. The fair market value of the ounces of gold on the ROM pad stockpile and crushed ore stockpile is approximately $89.0 million using the London PM Fix gold price of approximately $4,546 per ounce as at May 31, 2026. Since year-end August 31, 2025, the Company added 4,211 ounces to the ROM pad stockpile to support mill feed. These fluctuations in ROM pad inventory are anticipated throughout the course of the year and are designed to ensure steady state processing. During Q3 2026, the Company processed stockpiled and mined material through the 2,000 tpd processing plant and reported record gold in circuit inventory, reflecting a buildup of metal inventory in the CIL tanks. The Company reported 1,591 ounces of gold in circuit on May 31, 2026, which reflected an increase of 544 ounces from August 31, 2025, following gold elution and smelting activity during 2026. |
Exploration
| · | During Q3 2026, the Company completed its 3-stage geophysical survey that commenced in Q4 2025, which was comprised of a detailed magnetic survey across the full property, electro-resistivity based Induced Polarisation (“IP”) resistivity and chargeability surveys across all high-potential structures identified in the detailed magnetic survey and detailed dipole-dipole electro resistivity lines across a series of targets identified when overlapping the structural and IP anomalies. From this dipole-dipole survey, a total of 13 drill holes covering 1,850 meters has been identified for drill-testing across 9 sections as a preliminary test pattern. These holes are expected to be drilled in Q4 2026. |
| · | In parallel, a fourteen-kilometre accumulated depth RC drilling program was commenced using the Company’s newly commissioned drill rig. The primary objective of the RC program is to upgrade the Eastern Porphyry Mineral Resources from the Inferred category to the Indicated/Measured categories. In Q3 2026, approximately 50% of the Eastern Porphyry drill program was completed with the Company’s new RC drill rig. The remaining Eastern Porphyry drilling campaign is expected to be completed in Q1 2027. Additionally, this new drill rig was used to conduct additional grade control drilling in the Stage 2 Main Pit. A second RC drill rig will be delivered in Q4 2026 which will enable additional exploration drilling in the future. |
| · | Concurrently, a contractor’s diamond drill rig has been used to conduct a 5-hole geotechnical drilling program for a deeper open pit and an eventual move to underground mining. At the end of Q3 2026 this was approximately 60% complete and is expected to be fully completed in Q4 2026. Additional technical drilling in Q4 2026 includes a 5-hole hydro-geological drill hole program to assist with mining and site water management and planning. |

Operational Overview
The Buckreef Gold Project
The Company is focused on the Buckreef Gold Project located in the Geita District of the Geita Region south of Lake Victoria, approximately 110 km southwest of the City of Mwanza, Tanzania (Figure 1). The Buckreef Gold Project area can be accessed via a paved national road and, thereafter, via 17 kilometers of well maintained unpaved regional roads. The Buckreef Gold Project comprises several deposits, namely Buckreef, Eastern Porphyry, Anfield and the newly discovered Stamford Bridge. The Buckreef pit itself encompasses three main mineralized zones: Buckreef South, Buckreef Main and Buckreef North. The Buckreef Gold Project is fully licensed for mining and the extraction of gold.

Notes:
| (1) | Mineral Resources, which are not Mineral Reserves, may not have demonstrated economic viability. The estimate of Mineral Resources may be materially affected by environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, socio-political, marketing, or other relevant issues. |
| (2) | The Inferred Mineral Resource in this estimate has a lower level of confidence than that applied to an Indicated Mineral Resource and must not be converted to a Mineral Reserve. It is reasonably expected that the majority of the Inferred Mineral Resource could be upgraded to an Indicated Mineral Resource with continued exploration. |
| (3) | The Mineral Resources were estimated in accordance with the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (CIM), CIM Standards on Mineral Resources and Reserves, Definitions and Guidelines prepared by the CIM Standing Committee on Reserve Definitions and adopted by the CIM Council. |
| (4) | Gold price used is $1,900/oz Au. |
| (5) | The pit constrained cut-off grade of 0.42 g/t Au was derived from 80% process recovery, $21.04/tonne process and G&A cost, and a royalty of 7.3%. The constraining pit optimization parameters were $3.88/t mining cost and 45-degree pit slopes. |
| (6) | The out-of-pit cut-off grade of 1.31 g/t Au was derived from 80% process recovery, $21.04/tonne process and G&A cost, a $40/tonne underground mining cost, and a royalty of 7.3%. The out-of-pit Mineral Resource grade blocks were quantified below the constraining pit shell and within the constraining mineralized wireframes. Out–of-Pit Mineral Resources are restricted to areas which exhibit geological continuity and reasonable potential for extraction by cut and fill and long hole mining methods. |
| (7) | The Stamford Bridge cut-off grade of 1.20 g/t Au was derived from 80% process recovery, $21.04/tonne process and G&A cost, a $35/tonne underground mining cost, and a royalty of 7.3%. Mineral Resources are restricted to areas which exhibit geological continuity and reasonable potential for extraction by cut and fill and long hole underground mining methods. |

Exploration & Mineral Resources
| · | The Company continues to evaluate the full potential of the Buckreef Gold property and identify opportunities for the discovery of additional mineral resources and their conversion to mineral reserves. Exploration activities relevant for the orogenic, shear-hosted gold deposits found in the Lake Victoria Greenstone belts include magnetic surveys, electro-resistivity surveys, soil and chip and drillhole sampling. |
| · | During Q3 2026, the company completed its 3-stage geophysical survey that commenced in Q4 2025, which comprised of a detailed magnetic survey across the full property (Figure 13), 27 pole-dipole electro-resistivity based IP resistivity and chargeability survey lines across all high-potential structures identified in the detailed magnetic survey, and further detailed dipole-dipole electro resistivity lines across targets identified when overlapping the structural and IP anomalies (Figure 14). |
| · | During Q3 2026 a total of 9 dipole-dipole lines was completed at 50 meter dipole spacing. Lines were a minimum of 1,200 meters long and planned perpendicular to strike (Figure 15 and 16). |
| · | Data generated during the program has been integrated with existing geological and geochemical data to generate potential drill targets. A total of 13 drillholes covering 1,850 meters has been identified across 9 sections. Sample chargeability sections with proposed drillholes are shown in Figure 17. |
| · | Buckreef Gold now has two exploration drill rigs on site, with a third drill rig in-country and scheduled for delivery in July 2026. A 4th drill rig is now enroute to Tanzania and is scheduled for commissioning in Q4 2026. The drilling program is scheduled to begin during Q4 2026 which aligns with arrival of the Buckreef Gold diamond drill rig. |

Resource Upgrade Drilling at Eastern Porphyry
| · | During 2026 a fourteen-kilometre accumulated depth RC drilling program was commenced using the Company’s newly commissioned drill rig. The primary objective of the RC program is to upgrade the Eastern Porphyry Inferred and Indicated Mineral Resources to Indicated and Measured categories, ahead of planned production. In Q3 2026, approximately 50% of the Eastern Porphyry drill program was completed with the new RC drill rig. The remaining Eastern Porphyry drilling campaign is expected to be completed in Q1 2027. |
| · | Concurrently, a contractor’s diamond drill rig has been used to conduct a 5-hole geotechnical drilling program for a deeper open pit and an eventual move to underground mining. At the end of Q3 2026 this was approximately 60% complete and is expected to be fully completed in Q4 2026. Additional technical drilling in Q4 2026 includes a 5-hole hydro-geological drill hole program to assist with mining and site water management and planning. |

Other Recent Exploration Developments:
| · | Announced in fiscal 2025 its best drill results ever, on a gram x tonne x meter (“gtm”) basis with hole BMDD315 intersecting 37 m @ 6.86 g/t Au (253.82 gtm) from 130 m. This drill hole result is approximately 250 m east of the Buckreef Main Zone, host to Buckreef Gold’s 2M+ ounce Au Mineral Resource1 and where current operations are ongoing in the Main Pit. This drill hole result comes following the Company’s previous best drill hole result, with hole BMDD310 intersecting 35.5 m @ 5.48 g/t Au (194.54 gtm) from 64 m. This drill hole result is approximately 200 m east of the Buckreef Main Zone. These drill holes led to the discovery of a promising new gold mineralization shear zone, named the “Stamford Bridge Zone” at which current drill results are revealing geological characteristics and mineral alterations similar to that at Buckreef’s Main Zone. Holes BMDD315 and BMDD310, mentioned above, are located along the Stamford Bridge Zone. During Q1 2025, the Company drilled 2,420 meters along the Stamford Bridge Zone on newly defined, high-priority targets. Thus far, drilling has covered 150 m of this newly identified mineralized structure and geological logging confirms the continuity of the structure. These results are beginning to form what can become a potential 1-kilometer “bridge” between the Buckreef Gold Main Zone, where current operations are ongoing, and the parallel, high-priority, gold mineralization zone known as the Eastern Porphyry. The latter also links to the Anfield Zone to the southeast, discovered in 2022. The Company has planned a geophysical survey campaign, which will focus on the Stamford Bridge trend line, as well as an area covering up to 500 meters to both the North and South sides of the trend line. Following the results of this campaign, a strategic drill campaign will resume on newly defined, high-priority targets. |
| · | Announced in fiscal 2023 near surface drilling results from the Anfield and Eastern Porphyry Zones, with highlights of 14 m @ 3.5 g/t including 3.0 m @ 10.9 g/t from 47 m from the Eastern Porphyry, and 2.94 m grading at 13.74 g/t, from 43.00 m in the Anfield zone (full results provided in Table 2). The zones are located at the northern end of a 3-kilometer-long zone of identified gold mineralization that is subparallel to the east of Buckreef Main Zone (Figure 19). The intercepts confirm multiple zones of strong mineralization towards the south-west of the known Eastern Porphyry deposit and the first diamond drill hole intersections on the Anfield Zone. Both mineralized zones are in close proximity to the Buckreef Main Zone and present an opportunity (assuming exploration success) to host future mineral resources outside of the Buckreef Main Zone. |
| · | Re-evaluated the Buckreef Main Zone for strike extensions, off-shoot splays, and at depth potential. The deposit is open in all directions. To date, the Company has tested the NE Extension and successfully identified gold mineralization over an additional 300 meters. The deposit remains open along strike to the NE and future infill drilling is warranted. The SW extension has also been tested with wide-spaced drilling, and the exploration program has returned encouraging results. The deposit now remains open along strike to the SW. |
| · | Collectively, between the NE extension and SW drilling the known strike extent of gold mineralization on the deposit structure has been expanded approximately 500 meters, or by nearly 30% since exploration was recommenced. The Company will continue to identify areas offering the best opportunity to add gold ounces to the mineral resource inventory and commence an infill drilling program. |

Best Drill Hole Results in History of Buckreef Gold – Announcement of Stamford Bridge Zone
During Q1 2025, the Company announced its best drill results ever, on a gtm basis with hole BMDD315 intersecting 37 m @ 6.86 g/t Au (253.82 gtm) from 130 m. This drill hole result is approximately 250 m east of the Buckreef Main Zone where current operations are ongoing. This drill hole result comes following the previous best drill result, with hole BMDD310 intersecting 35.5 m @ 5.48 g/t Au (194.54 gtm) from 64 m. This drill hole result is approximately 200 m east of the Buckreef Main Zone.
The Company also announced the discovery of a promising new gold mineralization shear zone, named the “Stamford Bridge Zone” at which current drill results are revealing geological characteristics and mineral alterations similar to that at Buckreef’s Main Zone. Holes BMDD315 and BMDD310, mentioned above, are located along the Stamford Bridge Zone.
Stamford Bridge Shear Zone Highlights:
| 1. | Hole BMDD315 intersected 37 m @ 6.86 g/t Au from 130 m; including 23 m @ 9.31 g/t Au from 139 m. |
| 2. | Hole BMDD310 intersected 35.5 m @ 5.48 g/t Au from 64 m; including 13m @8.06g/t Au. |
| 3. | Hole BMDD312 intersected 17.2 m @ 3.14 g/t Au from 164.6 m. |
| 4. | Geotechnical hole BMGT001 intersected 11.39 m @ 2.80 g/t Au from 104.0 m, and 22.0 m @ 2.36 g/t Au from 186.6 m. Both results are interpreted to be part of the Stamford Bridge Zone trend. |
| 5. | BMGT001 intersected the Buckreef Main Zone of 32.80 m @ 1.70 g/t Au (ending in mineralization) from 393.0 m. |
During Q2 2025, the Company announced three additional drill hole results (BMDD319-321) providing further evidence of gold mineralization along the Stamford Bridge Zone as follows:
| 6. | Hole BMDD319 intersected 21.0 m @ 8.63 g/t Au from 81.0 m. |
| 7. | Hole BMDD320 intersected 20.5 m @ 5.14 g/t Au from 125.5 m. |
| 8. | Hole BMDD321 intersected 5.0 m @ 2.74 g/t Au from 157.0 m. |
The Stamford Bridge Zone was discovered through detailed geological mapping of the Main Pit floor that identified a trend of high-grade mineralization on the eastern side of the Main Pit trending 070 East. This is an exceptional discovery at the Buckreef Gold Project, resulting in the most significant mineralization identified within Buckreef Gold’s drill history.
The exploration team then identified that geotechnical hole BMGT001 (one of geotechnical holes drilled as part of the Buckreef Main Zone geotechnical study completed by Terrane Geoscience Inc.) located 160 m east of the Main Pit, drilled across the Stamford Bridge (Figure 19), and was subsequently relogged (Table 1). The logging confirmed the presence of three mineralization zones, including the Stamford Bridge Zone. The zones were sampled, and the assay results are summarized below (Table 1). To date, the new Stamford Bridge Zone has shown evidence of a sheared mineralized zone with similar geological characteristics to that found in the Main Zone, i.e., zones are measured as being near vertical with strong alteration.
Thus far, drilling has covered more than 150 m of this newly identified mineralized structure and geological logging confirms the continuity of the structure. These results are beginning to form what can become a potential 1-kilometer “bridge” between the Buckreef Gold Main Zone, where current operations are ongoing, and the parallel, high-priority, gold mineralization zone known as the Eastern Porphyry. The latter also links to the Anfield Zone to the southeast, discovered in 2022.
| 26 |
| Management’s Discussion and Analysis May 31, 2026 |
The Company has planned an expanded diamond drill program to test for further mineralization along this newly developing trend. Although these are early-stage results, and only two sections along the newly identified trend have been drilled, key interpretations include:
| 1. | The Stamford Bridge Zone is potentially a significant shear zone and geologically similar to the Buckreef Main Zone. It bridges the gap between Buckreef Main Zone and the Eastern Porphyry deposit to the Southeast. |
| 2. | Pinching and swelling of the Stamford Bridge Zone has been observed in the first section drilled; 4m wide in the first drillhole and over 17 m wide on the second drillhole down dip; and |
| 3. | The second section has intercepted a significant shear zone, over 35 m wide with distorted shear fabric by alteration overprint. Therefore, a minimal number of follow-up drillholes will be required to understand geometry of this new discovery. |

Financial Highlights – Third Quarter and Year to Date 2026
For the three months ended May 31, 2026, Buckreef Gold poured 7,426 ounces of gold (Q3 2025: 4,687 ounces) and sold 6,983 ounces of gold (Q3 2025: 3,995 ounces) at an average realized price (net)1 of $4,703 per ounce (Q3 2025: $3,114 per ounce), recognizing revenue of $32.9 million, a 163% increase over the prior year comparative period (Q3 2025: $12.5 million).
Cost of sales, which include production costs, royalties and depreciation, was $13.4 million (Q3 2025: $8.1 million), generating gross profit of $19.5 million, a 344% increase over the prior year comparative period (Q3 2025: $4.4 million). Gross profit margins during Q3 2026 benefited from an increase in plant throughput, recovery and head grade following completion of the Stage 1 waste stripping campaign in fiscal 2025, which provided access to higher grade ore blocks benefiting production in Q3 2026. The Company recorded adjusted net income of $10.1 million (2025: $2.0 million) and generated operating cash flow of $8.8 million, an increase over the prior year comparative period (Q3 2025: $1.9 million). Q3 2026 operating cash flow was higher than the prior year comparative period mainly due to the impact of higher ounces of gold sold (Q3 2026: 6,983 ounces, Q3 2025: 3,995 ounces) and a higher average realized gold price during the quarter (Q3 2026: $4,703 per ounce, Q3 2025: $3,114 per ounce). Positive operating cash flow is being used to self-fund value creating activities, including plant expansions, exploration, and advancing the larger project as outlined in the PEA.
For the nine months ended May 31, 2026, Buckreef Gold produced and sold 21,476 and 20,789 ounces of gold, respectively (2025: 12,532 and 12,236 ounces of gold, respectively). The Company recognized revenue of $92.0 million, an increase over the prior year comparative period (2025: $34.1 million) and cost of sales was $37.3 million (2025: $22.7 million) generating a gross profit of $54.7 million (2025: $11.4 million). The Company recorded adjusted net income of $29.5 million (2025: $3.8 million) and generated operating cash flow of $20.5 million (2025: $6.2 million) which enabled further investment in the development and growth of Buckreef Gold.
Capital Expenditures
During the Q3 2026, the Company incurred a total of $7.9 million in cash capital expenditures. Net additions during the quarter included upgrades related to the 2,000 tpd plant, including payments on the pre-leach thickener, upgraded agitators & interstage screens, Aachen reactor, oxygen plant, ADR plant and new gold room, and apron feeder & belt magnet. During Q3 2026 the Company also completed an additional lift of TSF2.2, extending its useful life into Q2 2027. Concurrently, during Q3 2026, the Company continued to progress with TSF 3.0 for a long-term life of mine storage solution. For the nine months ended May 31, 2026, the Company incurred a total of $23.0 million in cash capital expenditures, mainly related to upgrades related to the 2,000 tpd plant, TSF 2.2 tailings lift and exploration drill purchases.

Revenue
For the three months ended May 31, 2026, the Company recognized revenue of $32.9 million (Q3 2025: $12.5 million). The increase in revenue is primarily related to higher ounces of gold sold and a higher average realized gold price compared to the prior year comparative period. During the period, the Company sold 6,983 ounces of gold (Q3 2025: 3,995 ounces) at an average realized price (net)1 of $4,703 per ounce (Q3 2025: $3,114 per ounce).
Cost of sales
Cost of sales for the three months ended May 31, 2026, was $13.4 million (Q3 2025: $8.1 million) and is comprised of production costs (including mining, processing and site general and administrative costs), royalties and depreciation. Assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over their useful life or depleted on a units-of-production basis over the estimated total recoverable ounces of gold to which they relate and are considered probable of economic extraction.
| 31 |
| Management’s Discussion and Analysis May 31, 2026 |
For the three months ended May 31, 2026, the Company recorded production costs of $9.3 million (Q3 2025: $6.2 million) and royalties of $2.2 million (Q3 2025: $1.0 million) based on statutory royalty rates in Tanzania. As part of the Gold Sale Service Agreement with the Bank of Tanzania (“BoT”), the Company benefits from a reduced royalty rate of 4.35% for any domestic sales made through the central bank and local refineries, where exported sales are subject to a 7.35% royalty.
Cash cost1 which includes production costs and royalties were $1,648 per ounce (Q3 2025: $1,819 per ounce). The decrease in cash cost1 compared to the prior year comparative period is primarily due to higher gold ounces produced following an increase in plant throughput, recovery and head grade, which more than offset a lower proportion of capitalized stripping costs following completion of the Stage 1 stripping campaign in fiscal 2025.
Following declaration of commercial production on November 1, 2022, capitalization of mine development costs ceased, and depreciation of capitalized mine development costs commenced. For the three months ended May 31, 2026, the Company recorded depreciation of $1.9 million (Q3 2025: $0.8 million).
General and administrative expenses
During the three months ended May 31, 2026, the Company recorded general and administrative expenses of $3.7 million compared to $1.7 million for the prior year period. The variance compared to the prior year period was mainly due to an increase in Canadian withholding tax on share based compensation as a result of equity based compensation issued for certain key management personnel.
Interest and other expense
During the three months ended May 31, 2026, the Company recorded interest and other expense of $0.6 million, compared to $0.3 million for the prior year period. The variance compared to the prior year period was mainly due to an increase in interest and other expenses related to the Stanbic VAF facility to fund downpayments on upgrades related to the 2,000 tpd processing plant.
Income tax expense
Income tax expense is recognized based on management’s estimate of the weighted average annual income tax rate expected for the full financial year. During the three months ended May 31, 2026, the Company recorded income tax expense of $7.7 million (Q3 2025: $1.1 million), comprised of a current income tax expense of $6.7 million (Q3 2025: $0.2 million) and deferred income tax expense of $1.0 million (Q3 2025: $0.9 million) based on current Tanzanian statutory tax rates.
Net income and comprehensive income
The Company reported net income for the three month period ended May 31, 2026, of $8.4 million ($2.8 million net income attributable to shareholders, basic and diluted earnings per share of $0.01) compared to net income of $1.1 million in the prior year period ($0.2 million net loss attributable to shareholders, basic and diluted loss per share of $0.00). The higher net income compared to the prior year comparative period is primarily due to an increase in gross profit following higher ounces of gold sold and a higher average realized gold price compared to the prior year comparative period. During the three month period ended May 31, 2026, the Company sold 6,983 ounces (Q3 2025: 3,995 ounces) at a record average realized price (net)1 of $4,703 per ounce (Q3 2025: $3,114 per ounce), generating gross profit of $19.5 million (Q3 2025: $4.4 million).

Revenue
For the nine months ended May 31, 2026, the Company recognized revenue of $92.0 million (2025: $34.1 million). The increase in revenue is primarily related to higher ounces of gold sold and a higher average realized gold price compared to the prior year comparative period. During the period, the Company sold 20,789 ounces of gold (2025: 12,236 ounces) at an average realized price (net)1 of $4,423 per ounce (2025: $2,829 per ounce).
Cost of sales
Cost of sales for the nine months ended May 31, 2026, was $37.3 million (2025: $22.7 million) and is comprised of production costs (including mining, processing and site general and administrative costs), royalties and depreciation.
For the nine months ended May 31, 2026, the Company recorded production costs of $26.0 million (2025: $17.9 million) and royalties of $6.3 million (2025: $2.6 million) based on statutory royalty rates in Tanzania. As part of the Gold Sale Service Agreement with the BoT, the Company benefits from a reduced royalty rate of 4.35% for any domestic sales made through the central bank and local refineries, where exported sales are subject to a 7.35% royalty.
Cash cost1 which includes production costs and royalties were $1,555 per ounce (2025: $1,635 per ounce). The decrease in cash cost1 compared to the prior year comparative period is primarily due to higher gold ounces produced following an increase in plant throughput, recovery and head grade, which more than offset a lower proportion of capitalized stripping costs following completion of the Stage 1 stripping campaign in fiscal 2025.
Following declaration of commercial production on November 1, 2022, capitalization of mine development costs ceased, and depreciation of capitalized mine development costs commenced. For the nine months ended May 31, 2026, the Company recorded depreciation of $5.0 million (2025: $2.3 million). Assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over their useful life or depleted on a units-of-production basis over the estimated total recoverable ounces of gold to which they relate and are considered probable of economic extraction.

General and administrative expenses
During the nine months ended May 31, 2026, the Company recorded general and administrative expenses of $10.4 million compared to $6.5 million for the prior year period. The variance compared to the prior year period was mainly due to an increase in Canadian withholding tax on share based compensation as a result of equity based compensation issued for certain key management personnel, an increase in shareholder fees related to marketing and shareholder engagement, and an increase in professional fees related to internal controls compliance.
Change in fair value of derivative financial instruments
During the nine months ended May 31, 2026, the Company recorded a loss on change in fair value of derivative financial instruments of $30.5 million compared to a gain of $1.5 million in the prior year period. The loss on revaluation of derivative financial instruments is mainly related to the revaluation of derivative warrant liabilities. During Q2 2026, all of the Company’s derivative warrant liabilities were fully settled due to expiration or by issuing equity of the Company. The fair value of derivative warrant liabilities was calculated using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model as of the date of each respective warrant exercise or expiry. The loss on change in fair value was principally due to an increase in the Company’s share price (Q2 2026: $0.96-$1.83, Q4 2025: $0.37), a reduction in the remaining term of the warrants resulting from the passage of time, and an increase in the expected volatility assumption. The primary component was the difference between the share price at the time of exercise and the strike price of the warrants, which led to a non-cash loss which is included in income under IFRS. Following exercise of the Company’s warrants during Q2 2026, the Company received total gross proceeds of approximately $21.0 million and now has a clean capital structure with no remaining warrants outstanding.
Interest and other expense
During the nine months ended May 31, 2026, the Company recorded interest and other expense of $1.1 million, compared to $1.9 million for the prior year period. The variance compared to the prior year period was mainly due to lower accretion expense related to the gold prepayment facility as the Company had nil gold ounces outstanding under the Auramet Gold Prepayment Facility as at May 31, 2026. Additionally, in the prior year period, the Company expensed previously capitalized deferred financing costs upon expiry of the equity line of credit with Lincoln Park Capital Fund, LLC in mid-January 2025, and upon termination of the initial At The Market Offering Agreement with H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC and Roth Capital Partners, LLC, prior to subsequent renewal in Q2 2025.
Income tax expense
Income tax expense is recognized based on management’s estimate of the weighted average annual income tax rate expected for the full financial year. During the nine months ended May 31, 2026, the Company recorded income tax expense of $19.1 million (2025: $2.9 million), comprised of a current income tax expense of $15.7 million (2025: $0.3 million) and deferred income tax expense of $3.5 million (2025: $2.6 million) based on current Tanzanian statutory tax rates.
Net income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss)
The Company reported a net loss for the nine month period ended May 31, 2026, of $5.9 million ($21.7 million net loss attributable to shareholders, basic and diluted loss per share of $0.07) compared to net income of $1.3 million in the prior year period ($1.8 million net loss attributable to shareholders, basic and diluted loss per share of $0.01). The higher net loss compared to the prior year comparative period is primarily due a loss on change in fair value of derivative financial instruments due to market based assumptions used in the fair market valuation of the Company’s warrant liabilities as of the date of each respective warrant exercise or expiry. During Q2 2026, all outstanding warrants of the Company were either exercised or expired, and the Company now has a clean capital structure with no remaining warrants outstanding. This was partially offset by an increase in gross profit as the Company increased the ounces of gold sold (2026: 20,789 ounces, 2025: 12,236 ounces) at a record average realized price1 of $4,423 per ounce (2025: $2,829 per ounce), generating higher gross profit of $54.7 million (2025: $11.4 million).

During the three months ended May 31, 2026, the Company reported net income of $8.4 million ($2.8 million net income attributable to shareholders), compared to a net loss of $13.8 million ($20.4 million net loss attributable to shareholders) in the prior quarter (Q2 2026). Net income in Q3 2026 is primarily due to 6,983 ounces of gold sold (Q2 2026: 7,314) at a record average realized price (net)1 of $4,703 per ounce (Q2 2026: $4,655) generating gross profit of $19.5 million (Q2 2026: $21.1 million). In Q2 2026 the Company incurred a loss on change in fair value of derivative financial instruments due to market based assumptions used in the fair market valuation of the Company’s warrant liabilities as of the date of each respective warrant exercise or expiry. During Q2 2026, all outstanding warrants of the Company were either exercised or expired. Net income (loss) has fluctuated since Q4 2024 due to a variety of factors ranging from the impact of higher average gold prices, record ounces of gold produced, and changes in fair value of derivative financial instruments.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
During Q3 2026 the Company continued to strengthen its working capital position through increased production, organically generated cashflow, improved liquidity and an increase in stockpile inventory. As a result, the Company’s current ratio has improved to a ratio of approximately 2.2 at May 31, 2026, including a cash balance of $26.8 million, an increase in net cash of approximately $19.1 million from year-end.
During Q3 2026, operating cash flow of $8.8 million was primarily offset by an increase in the capital investment in Buckreef Gold. The Company incurred a total of $7.9 million in cash capital expenditures mainly related to upgrades to the 2,000 tpd processing plant, including payments on the pre-leach thickener, upgraded agitators & interstage screens, Aachen reactor, oxygen plant, ADR plant and new gold room, and apron feeder & belt magnet. During Q3 2026 the Company completed construction works for an additional lift of TSF2.2 and progressed with testwork related to TSF3.0.
The Company has access to a Gold Prepayment Facility with Auramet International, Inc. through which Buckreef may, at its discretion, sell to up to an aggregate amount of $8.0 million of gold, up to 21 calendar days prior to delivery, on a revolving basis for a one-year term. This facility is in place to provide increased financial flexibility to help manage working capital fluctuations and to accelerate growth. As at May 31, 2026, the Company had nil gold ounces outstanding under the Auramet Gold Prepayment Facility.
During Q3 2026, the Company drew $0.6 million on the Stanbic revolving credit facility and VAF facility to fund downpayments on upgrades related to the 2,000 tpd processing plant, including payments on the pre-leach thickener, upgraded agitators & interstage screens, Aachen reactor, oxygen plant, ADR plant and new gold room, and apron feeder & belt magnet. This facility can provide access to approximately $9 million for capital requirements and working capital purposes. As at May 31, 2026, the Company had drawn $2.9 million on the Stanbic facility.
During Q3 2026, no shares were sold under the Company’s ATM pursuant to which the Company, at its discretion, may offer and sell, from time to time, common shares having an aggregate offering price of up to $25 million. During the nine months ended May 31, 2026, the Company sold 19,408 shares for net proceeds of approximately $15,255 under the ATM agreement to gain market intelligence around trading activity.

Non-IFRS Performance Measures
Average Realized Price Per Ounce of Gold Sold
Average realized price per ounce of gold sold is a non-IFRS measure and does not constitute a measure recognized by IFRS and does not have a standardized meaning defined by IFRS. Average realized price per ounce of gold sold is calculated by dividing revenue by ounces of gold sold. It may not be comparable to information in other gold producers’ reports and filings. The following table provides a reconciliation of average realized price per ounce of gold sold to revenue per the Unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the three and nine months ended May 31, 2026.

Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-IFRS performance measure and does not constitute a measure recognized by IFRS and does not have a standardized meaning defined by IFRS. Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to information in other gold producers’ reports and filings. Adjusted EBITDA is presented as a supplemental measure of the Company’s performance and ability to service its obligations. Adjusted EBITDA is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in the industry, many of which present Adjusted EBITDA when reporting their results.
| 37 |
| Management’s Discussion and Analysis May 31, 2026 |
The Company presents Adjusted EBITDA because investors, analysts and rating agencies consider it useful in measuring the ability of those issuers to meet their obligations. Adjusted EBITDA represents net income (loss) before interest, income taxes, and depreciation and also eliminates the impact of a number of items that are not considered indicative of ongoing operating performance.
Certain items of expense are added, and certain items of income are deducted from net income that are not likely to recur or are not indicative of the Company’s underlying operating results for the reporting periods presented or for future operating performance.
The following table provides a reconciliation of net income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA per the financial statements for the three and nine months ended May 31, 2026.

Adjusted Net Income
Adjusted Net Income is a non-IFRS performance measure and does not constitute a measure recognized by IFRS and does not have a standardized meaning defined by IFRS. Adjusted Net Income may not be comparable to information in other gold producers’ reports and filings. Adjusted Net Income is presented as a supplemental measure of the Company’s performance. Adjusted Net Income is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in the industry, many of which present Adjusted Net Income when reporting their results.
Management uses this measure internally to evaluate the underlying operating performance for the reporting periods presented. Management believes that Adjusted Net Income is a useful measure of performance because the items excluded from Net Income do not reflect the underlying operating performance of the core mining business and are not necessarily indicative of future operating results.
The Company presents Adjusted Net Income to enable investors, analysts and rating agencies to better understand the underlying operating performance of the core mining business through the eyes of management. Adjusted Net Income is a non-IFRS financial measure which excludes the following from net income (loss): foreign exchange losses (gains), interest and other expense, change in fair value of derivative instruments, and share-based expenses, which are not considered indicative of the Company’s underlying operating results for the reporting periods presented or for future operating performance.

2 Notes Regarding Sample Protocol QA/QC: The sample chain of custody is managed by the Buckreef Gold geology team on site. Reported results are from diamond drilled core samples. Intervals of core to be analyzed are split into half using a mechanized core cutter, with one half sent to the Laboratory for geochemical analysis and the remaining half kept in storage for future reference and uses. Diamond drilled core has been HQ size and recoveries are consistently 100% across all drill hole intercepts reported.
Sampling and analytical procedures are subject to a comprehensive quality assurance and quality control program. The QA/QC program involves insertion of duplicate samples, blanks and certified reference materials in the sample stream. Gold analyses were performed by standard fire assaying protocols using a 50-gram charge with atomic absorption (AAS) finish and a gravimetric finish performed for assays greater than 10 grams per tonne.
Sample Preparation and analysis were performed by independent SGS Laboratory in Mwanza, Tanzania. SGS Laboratory is ISO17025 accredited and employs a Laboratory Information Management System for sample tracking, quality control and reporting.
The results summarized in this MD&A from the “Buckreef Main Zone NEE” prospect is an extension of the known Buckreef Main Zone. The intercepts confirm a continuity of over 200 m of known Buckreef main deposit to the Northeast. The intersections reported here are a down-hole length and may not represent true width, however the true width is estimated to be between 50% - 60% of the length.
The results summarized in this MD&A from the “Stamford Bridge” target show intercepts that confirm an interpreted mineralized shear zone trending 070 degrees (ENE) that is over a km long. The intersections reported only cover the first 100 m strike length, they are a down-hole length and may not represent true width, however the true width is estimated to be between 50% - 60% of the length.
