First Nordic Metals to Present at Mar-a-Lago to Showcase European Gold Growth Strategy
This initiative is part of First Nordic's broader push to raise visibility among key investors, engage new capital markets participants, and build strategic partnerships as it advances its position as a leading European gold explorer and developer.
First Nordic CEO Taj Singh comments, "The Mar-a-Lago forum is an excellent venue to connect with investors who share our bullish view on gold. It's also a chance to showcase what sets us apart: a junior miner with two district-scale gold assets in mining-friendly, first-world jurisdictions."
The occasion follows a milestone year for the Company, in which it was named to the 2025 TSX Venture 50, featured in national U.S. media, including Fox News, and successfully listed on the Nasdaq First North Growth Market in Sweden under the ticker FNMC SDB.
With a dominant land position across Sweden's Gold Line belt and Finland's Oijärvi belt, First Nordic is well-positioned to lead the next wave of European gold discovery. The Mar-a-Lago event marks another step in growing its U.S. investor base and driving long-term value through strategic engagement.

All figures are reported in U.S. dollars unless otherwise indicated.

Gross Margin: 24%, compared to 34% in Q2 2024, reflecting higher input costs for clean extraction material. Margins are expected to improve as the Company begins processing material from Salisbury Canyon Ranch in 3Q 2025. Net Loss: $2.9 million, or ($0.02) per share, a 45% improvement from a $5.5 million loss in Q2 2024.

Operational Highlights: Planted Salisbury Canyon Ranch: In April, LEEF planted Salisbury Canyon Ranch, one of the largest cannabis farms in the world. Since the quarter end, the Company successfully harvested the material and replanted a second crop for fall harvest. The summer harvest exceeded expectations and is expected to drive meaningful margin improvements beginning in Q3 2025. New York License Acquisition: On June 9, 2025, LEEF closed the acquisition of a New York cannabis license. The Company is expected to begin producing a full range of concentrates in Q3 2025. New York is expected to increase revenue and margins. Leadership Addition: In June 2025, Josh Keats joined as Chief Operating Officer, bringing over 20 years of cannabis industry expertise, including serving as Founder and CEO of Henry's Original. His leadership will drive operational excellence as LEEF scales its cultivation and enters new markets. Management Commentary: 'This quarter marked a pivotal transition for LEEF as we completed our first planting at Salisbury Canyon Ranch and secured our New York license,' said Micah Anderson, CEO of LEEF Brands, Inc. 'The Salisbury Canyon Ranch harvest and the New York license are expected to strengthen our margins starting in Q3 2025 by reducing reliance on external biomass and opening new revenue streams.' Kevin Wilson, CFO, added, 'The first harvest off the Salisbury Canyon Ranch positions us for significant margin improvement in the second half of 2025, as we leverage our vertically integrated supply chain and expand into high-growth markets. Despite pricing pressures in California, our focus on operational efficiency and strategic growth sets a strong foundation for long-term value creation.'
