New Found Gold Announces Results of Annual General and Special Meeting; Adds Experienced Mining Executive to Board; Restart of Exploration Activities at Queensway Gold Project

VANCOUVER, BC, Aug. 20, 2025 /CNW/ - New Found Gold Corp. (" New Found Gold" or the " Company") (TSXV: NFG) (NYSE-A: NFGC) is pleased to welcome Tamara Brown to its board of directors (the " Board"). Following the Annual General and Special Meeting of the shareholders of New Found Gold (the " Shareholders") held in Vancouver, BC, on August 20, 2025 (the " Meeting"), the Board now comprises Paul Huet, Keith Boyle, William Hayden, Vijay Mehta, Melissa Render, Chad Williams and Tamara Brown. At the Meeting, disinterested Shareholders voted in favour of an ordinary resolution to approve the creation of Mr. Eric Sprott as a new "Control Person" (as defined by the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange (the " TSXV")). It is anticipated that Mr. Sprott will become a new Control Person upon closing of the previously announced non-brokered private placement of up to 12,269,939 common shares (the " Common Shares") at a price of C$1.63 per Common Share for gross proceeds of approximately C$20 million (the " Private Placement"). The Private Placement is anticipated to close by August 27, 2025, subject to final approval of the TSXV and authorization of the NYSE American LLC (the " NYSE American"). In addition, resolutions regarding the following matters were passed by the requisite majority at the Meeting: fixing the number of directors at seven; appointing KPMG LLP, Chartered Professional Accountants, as auditor of the Company at a remuneration to be fixed by the Board; approving the amendment of "10% rolling" stock option plan of the Company; and approving the "5% rolling" share unit plan of the Company. The Meeting did not consider any matters that were not presented in the management information circular, dated July 8, 2025, that was filed in connection with the Meeting. Paul Huet, Chairman of New Found, stated " On behalf of the Board of Directors, I would like to welcome Tamara to New Found Gold. With her extensive capital markets experience and depth of knowledge of the mining industry as both a mining executive and a professional engineer, Tamara's addition to the Board continues to strengthen the team and the Company as a whole." This news release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall there be any sale of the Common Shares in any jurisdiction in which such offer or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of that jurisdiction. Resumption of Heavy Equipment Exploration Activities As a result of a reduction of the Fire Weather Index in the area of the Company's 100% owned Queensway Gold Project (" Queensway"), Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada, exploration activities involving the use of heavy equipment in or near forested areas, including, drilling, mulching and excavating, have restarted at Queensway. These activities had previously been suspended as a precaution against regional forest fire risks (see the New Found Gold news release dated August 13, 2025). Keith Boyle, Chief Executive Officer, stated: " The Fire Weather Index across Newfoundland has been reduced to acceptable levels. With weather conditions favourable and the Fire Weather Index within operational limits, exploration activities will resume immediately. The Company will continue to monitor the situation and implement additional measures to mitigate forest fire risks. The New Found Gold team once again extends its thanks to the firefighters for their hard work in maintaining community safety." About New Found Gold Corp. New Found Gold holds a 100% interest in Queensway, located in Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada, a Tier 1 jurisdiction with excellent infrastructure and a skilled local workforce. The Company has completed an initial mineral resource estimate (" MRE") and preliminary economic assessment (" PEA") at Queensway (see New Found Gold news release dated March 24, 2025 and July 21, 2025). Recent drilling continues to yield new discoveries along strike and down dip of known gold zones, pointing to the district-scale potential of the 175,450 ha project that covers a 110 km strike extent along two prospective fault zones. New Found Gold has a new management team in place, a solid shareholder base, which includes a 19% holding by Eric Sprott, and is focused on growth and value creation at Queensway. Keith Boyle, Chief Executive Officer New Found Gold Corp. Contact: Neither the TSXV nor its Regulation Services Provider (as that term is defined in the policies of the TSXV) accepts responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this news release. Forward Looking Statement Cautions This news release contains certain "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Canadian securities legislation, relating the Private Placement, including the timing of closing thereof, if at all; and the approval by the TSXV and authorization of the NYSE American of the Private Placement.

The Company cautions that forward- looking statements are based on the beliefs, estimates and opinions of the Company's management on the date the statements are made, and they involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Consequently, there can be no assurances that such statements will prove to be accurate and actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Except to the extent required by applicable securities laws and the policies of the TSXV or the NYSE American, the Company undertakes no obligation to update these forward-looking statements if management's beliefs, estimates or opinions, or other factors, should change. Factors that could cause future results to differ materially from those anticipated in these forward- looking statements include risks associated with the Company's receiving all the approvals necessary for completion of the Private Placement and the timing of such approvals.

First Trust Senior Floating Rate Income Fund II Declares its Monthly Common Share Distribution of $0.097 Per Share for September

First Trust Senior Floating Rate Income Fund II (the "Fund") (NYSE: FCT) has declared the Fund's regularly scheduled monthly common share distribution in the amount of $0.097 per share payable on September 15, 2025, to shareholders of record as of September 2, 2025. The ex-dividend date is expected to be September 2, 2025. The monthly distribution information for the Fund appears below. This distribution will consist of net investment income earned by the Fund and return of capital and may also consist of net short-term realized capital gains. The final determination of the source and tax status of all distributions paid in 2025 will be made after the end of 2025 and will be provided on Form 1099-DIV. The Fund has a practice of seeking to maintain a relatively stable monthly distribution which may be changed periodically. First Trust Advisors L.P. ("FTA") believes the practice may benefit the Fund's market price and premium/discount to the Fund's NAV. The practice has no impact on the Fund's investment strategy and may reduce the Fund's NAV. The Fund is a diversified, closed-end management investment company. The Fund's primary investment objective is to seek a high level of current income. As a secondary objective, the Fund attempts to preserve capital. The Fund pursues these investment objectives by investing primarily in senior secured floating-rate corporate loans. Under normal market conditions, the Fund will invest at least 80% of its Managed Assets in lower grade debt instruments. First Trust Advisors L.P. ("FTA") is a federally registered investment advisor and serves as the Fund's investment advisor. FTA and its affiliate First Trust Portfolios L.P. ("FTP"), a FINRA registered broker-dealer, are privately-held companies that provide a variety of investment services. FTA has collective assets under management or supervision of approximately $278 billion as of June 30, 2025 through unit investment trusts, exchange-traded funds, closed-end funds, mutual funds and separate managed accounts. FTA is the supervisor of the First Trust unit investment trusts, while FTP is the sponsor. FTP is also a distributor of mutual fund shares and exchange-traded fund creation units. FTA and FTP are based in Wheaton, Illinois. Principal Risk Factors: Risks are inherent in all investing. Certain risks applicable to the Fund are identified below, which includes the risk that you could lose some or all of your investment in the Fund. The principal risks of investing in the Fund are spelled out in the Fund's annual shareholder reports. The order of the below risk factors does not indicate the significance of any particular risk factor. The Fund also files reports, proxy statements and other information that is available for review. Past performance is no assurance of future results. Investment return and market value of an investment in the Fund will fluctuate. Shares, when sold, may be worth more or less than their original cost. There can be no assurance that the Fund's investment objectives will be achieved. The Fund may not be appropriate for all investors. Market risk is the risk that a particular investment, or shares of a fund in general may fall in value. Investments held by the Fund are subject to market fluctuations caused by real or perceived adverse economic conditions, political events, regulatory factors or market developments, changes in interest rates and perceived trends in securities prices. Shares of a fund could decline in value or underperform other investments as a result. In addition, local, regional or global events such as war, acts of terrorism, market manipulation, government defaults, government shutdowns, regulatory actions, political changes, diplomatic developments, the imposition of sanctions and other similar measures, spread of infectious disease or other public health issues, recessions, natural disasters or other events could have significant negative impact on a fund and its investments. Current market conditions risk is the risk that a particular investment, or shares of the fund in general, may fall in value due to current market conditions. For example, changes in governmental fiscal and regulatory policies, disruptions to banking and real estate markets, actual and threatened international armed conflicts and hostilities, and public health crises, among other significant events, could have a material impact on the value of the fund's investments. The Fund will typically invest in senior loans rated below investment grade, which are commonly referred to as "junk" or "high-yield" securities and considered speculative because of the credit risk of their issuers. Such issuers are more likely than investment grade issuers to default on their payments of interest and principal owed to the Fund, and such defaults could reduce the Fund's NAV and income distributions. An economic downturn would generally lead to a higher non-payment rate, and a senior loan may lose significant market value before a default occurs. Moreover, any specific collateral used to secure a senior loan may decline in value or become illiquid, which would adversely affect the senior loan's value. The senior loan market has seen an increase in loans with weaker lender protections which may impact recovery values and/or trading levels in the future. The absence of financial maintenance covenants in a loan agreement generally means that the lender may not be able to declare a default if financial performance deteriorates. This may hinder the Fund's ability to reprice credit risk associated with a particular borrower and reduce the Fund's ability to restructure a problematic loan and mitigate potential loss. As a result, the Fund's exposure to losses on investments in senior loans may be increased, especially during a downturn in the credit cycle or changes in market or economic conditions. A second lien loan may have a claim on the same collateral pool as the first lien or it may be secured by a separate set of assets. Second lien loans are typically secured by a second priority security interest or lien on specified collateral securing the Borrower's obligation under the interest. Because second lien loans are second to first lien loans, they present a greater degree of investment risk. Specifically, these loans are subject to the additional risk that the cash flow of the Borrower and property securing the loan may be insufficient to meet scheduled payments after giving effect to those loans with a higher priority. In addition, loans that have a lower than first lien priority on collateral of the Borrower generally have greater price volatility than those loans with a higher priority and may be less liquid. In the event a borrower fails to pay scheduled interest or principal payments on a senior loan held by the Fund, the Fund will experience a reduction in its income and a decline in the value of the senior loan, which will likely reduce dividends and lead to a decline in the net asset value of the Fund's common shares. If the Fund acquires a senior loan from another lender, for example, by acquiring a participation, the Fund may also be subject to credit risks with respect to that lender. Although senior loans may be secured by specific collateral, the value of the collateral may not equal the Fund's investment when the senior loan is acquired or may decline below the principal amount of the senior loan subsequent to the Fund's investment. Also, to the extent that collateral consists of stock of the borrower or its subsidiaries or affiliates, the Fund bears the risk that the stock may decline in value, be relatively illiquid, and/or may lose all or substantially all of its value, causing the senior loan to be under collateralized. Therefore, the liquidation of the collateral underlying a senior loan may not satisfy the issuer's obligation to the Fund in the event of non-payment of scheduled interest or principal, and the collateral may not be readily liquidated. Distressed securities frequently do not produce income while they are outstanding. The Fund may be required to incur certain extraordinary expenses in order to protect and recover its investment. The Fund also will be subject to significant uncertainty as to when and in what manner and for what value the obligations evidenced by the distressed securities will eventually be satisfied. Use of leverage can result in additional risk and cost, and can magnify the effect of any losses. The Fund's portfolio is also subject to credit risk, interest rate risk, liquidity risk, prepayment risk and reinvestment risk. Interest rate risk is the risk that fixed-income securities will decline in value because of changes in market interest rates. Credit risk is the risk that an issuer of a security will be unable or unwilling to make dividend, interest and/or principal payments when due and that the value of a security may decline as a result. Credit risk may be heightened for the Fund because it invests in below investment grade securities. Liquidity risk is the risk that the fund may have difficulty disposing of senior loans if it seeks to repay debt, pay dividends or expenses, or take advantage of a new investment opportunity. Prepayment risk is the risk that, upon a prepayment, the actual outstanding debt on which the Fund derives interest income will be reduced. The Fund may not be able to reinvest the proceeds received on terms as favorable as the prepaid loan. Reinvestment risk is the risk that income from the Fund's portfolio will decline if the Fund invests the proceeds from matured, traded or called instruments at market interest rates that are below the Fund's portfolio's current earnings rate. The risks of investing in the Fund are spelled out in the shareholder reports and other regulatory filings. The information presented is not intended to constitute an investment recommendation for, or advice to, any specific person. By providing this information, First Trust is not undertaking to give advice in any fiduciary capacity within the meaning of ERISA, the Internal Revenue Code or any other regulatory framework. Financial professionals are responsible for evaluating investment risks independently and for exercising independent judgment in determining whether investments are appropriate for their clients.
