Perseus Mining Announces 5 Year Gold Production Outlook
Perth, June 11, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Perth, Western Australia/ June 11, 2025/ Perseus Mining Limited (ASX/TSX: PRU) (Company) is pleased to provide its gold production and All-In Site Cost (AISC) outlook for the five-year period from FY26 to FY30 inclusive for its portfolio of mines located in Ghana, Côte d'Ivoire and Tanzania. The Five-year Operating Outlook incorporates the updated planning outlook for each of Perseus's three existing operations based on planning assumptions reflecting current operating conditions. It also takes into account Final Investment Decisions (FID) for the CMA underground mining operation at the Yaouré Gold Mine in Côte d'Ivoire (see ASX announcement 'Perseus Mining takes Final Investment Decision on CMA underground project at Yaouré' dated 28 January 2025), as well as the development of the Nyanzaga Gold Project (NGP) in Tanzania (see ASX announcement 'Perseus Mining proceeds with development of the Nyanzaga Gold Project' dated 28 April 2025). HIGHLIGHTS Perseus expects to recover at total of 2.6Moz – 2.7Moz of gold with average gold production from the four operating mines of approximately 515koz – 535koz per annum in the five-year period to the end of FY30. The weighted average AISC over the five-year period is forecast to be US$1,400/oz – US$1,500/oz with not more than ±10% change year-on-year over the period, emphasising the benefit of our portfolio approach to asset management. Total development capital of ~US$878M that has been allocated to the operating assets during the period to achieve this production outlook is excluded from the AISC estimate. At a long-term gold price of US$2,400/oz, Perseus's cash operating margin is expected to consistently exceed US$500/oz at all mines over the five-year period. In some cases, it is significantly higher. The five-year outlook is underpinned by a high level of geological and technical confidence with 93% of the gold ounces in the mine plan comprising existing Ore Reserves with the remaining 7% from Measured or Indicated Mineral Resources. Inferred Mineral Resources and other upside projections of mineralisation were specifically omitted from Perseus's five-year outlook. The five-year outlook reinforces Perseus's commitment to the three core components of its capital allocation policy, namely: maintenance of a resilient balance sheet, delivery of strong, consistent operational performance and careful deployment of discretionary capital for growth and capital returns to shareholders.'In FY22, Perseus's gold production reached approximately 500,000 ounces for the first time and set in train our ambition to maintain or exceed this level of production on a consistent basis going forward. Perseus's decision in 2023 to defer development of its Meyas Sand Gold Project in Sudan and pivot towards acquisition and development of the Nyanzaga Gold Project, will lead to a short term shortfall in 2026 and 2027 relative to this target. From the five-year outlook published today, it is clear that this is a temporary setback and that Perseus's strategy of consistently producing between 500,000 to 600,0000 ounces of gold per year at a cash margin of not less than US$500 per ounce, is eminently achievable. With cash and undrawn debt capacity currently exceeding US$1.1 billion, Perseus is fully funded to not only deliver the five-year outlook as presented today but also consider a prudent mix of future growth opportunities beyond the current plan, as well as generous returns to shareholders'.Perseus's five-year outlook delivers on the Company's strategy of building a sustainable, geopolitically diversified, African-focused gold business of three to four operating mines that produce between 500koz to 600koz of gold per annum at a cash margin of not less than US$500/oz. As part of its annual planning cycle, the Company has reassessed the growth opportunities available within its portfolio with the approach of optimising the portfolio rather than focussing on fixed investment targets for each asset. In this way, the Company has sought to find the balance between investment in growth opportunities and the cash margin generated by the gold production for the group over the five-year period is 515koz – 535koz per annum for a total of 2.6Moz – 2.7Moz with Yaouré contributing 34%, Edikan contributing 28% and Sissingué contributing 10%. Based on the current schedule, the recently committed NGP in Tanzania is anticipated to provide 28% of the metal production for the portfolio over the next 5 years. The Company's weighted average AISC over the five-year outlook is estimated at US$1,400/oz - US$1,500/oz. AISC rises slightly in the first two years, driven by lower production base. In FY28, the integration of lower-margin ore sources into the mine plan contributes to a slight increase in AISC. The portfolio's diverse production base allows AISC to remain within ±10% of the five-year average on a year-to-year Company has strong confidence in its ability to deliver on this five-year outlook, which is underpinned by a mine plan with high geological and technical certainty, with 93% of the production ounces forming part of the existing Ore Reserves with the remaining 7% from Measured or Indicated Mineral Resources (as detailed in ASX announcement 'Perseus Mining updates Mineral Resources and Ore Reservesdated 21 August 2024). Nyanzaga Ore Reserves are detailed in ASX announcement 'Perseus Proceeds with Development of Nyanzaga Gold Project' dated 28 April 2025. The Company will provide an update to the Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve statement in August 2025, in line with its annual disclosure. Incremental production included in the mine plan at Yaouré, Edikan and Sissingué comes from well-understood deposits with a proven operating history. This production does not require significant additional infrastructure or capital beyond the investment necessary to access the TOTAL PRODUCTION5-YEAR OUTLOOK AISC 5-YEAR RANGE1 TOTAL DEVELOPMENT CAPITAL 5-YEAR Yaouré 870koz – 905koz $1,480/oz - $1,580/oz US$170M2 Nyanzaga 725koz – 750koz $1,230/oz - $1,330/oz US$523M3 Edikan 720koz – 750koz $1,450/oz - $1,550/oz US$180M4 Sissingué 265koz – 275koz $1,580/oz - $1,680/oz US$5M TOTAL 2,580koz – 2,680koz $1,400/oz - $1,500/oz US$878M 1) AISC includes sustaining capital but excludes development capital 2) Yaouré Development capital relates to capitalised underground development and includes US$21M forecast to be incurred to 30 June 25 3) Includes development and pre-production capital cost incurred post-FID up to first gold pour.

This allows the Company to look to deploy operating cashflow to shareholders and other stakeholders in the business. summarises Perseus's capital allocation five-year outlook is the result of a systematic process to assess and prioritise internal growth opportunities to ensure the portfolio continues to deliver strong operating margins over the long term. The deployment of capital within the business complements existing capital management strategies, including a share buyback programme and the payment of dividends. While Perseus continues to consider inorganic growth opportunities, these are required to compete rigorously for discretionary investment and be assessed in the context of overall business risk and delivery of value. By allocating discretionary capital to internal organic growth, Perseus can invest in jurisdictions where it has an established operating presence, on known geological terranes, and with a proven workforce capable of safely and efficiently delivering five-year forecast for Yaouré includes mining of the recently started Yaouré open pit and CMA underground as the primary ore sources. Supplementing the primary ore sources, material is also sourced from Zain, CMA Southwest and long-term stockpiles to maximise mill will continue to be a cornerstone asset in Perseus's portfolio, total gold production of 870koz – 905koz and a weighted average AISC of $1,480/oz - $1,580/oz over the five-year outlook. While FY26 sees a reduction in gold produced compared to previous years, the change in production volume was anticipated and is a result of a combination of factors including change in ore characteristics and material sources (as detailed in the ASX announcement 'Perseus extends life of the Yaouré Gold Mine to 2035' dated 18 September 2023).KEY PRODUCTION INDICATORS UNITS FY26 FY27 FY28 FY29 FY30 TOTAL 5-YEAR OUTLOOKOre Mined – Open pit Mt 4.3 2.8 3.7 5.7 2.6 19.2 Ore Grade Mined – Open pit g/t 1.06 1.08 0.98 0.99 1.14 1.04 Total Mined – Open pit Mt 26.1 28.6 30.5 27.9 12.2 125.2 Strip Ratio t:t 5.02 9.15 7.17 3.90 3.70 5.53Ore tonnes - Underground Mt 0.2 0.6 0.8 0.8 0.8 3.2 Ore Grade Mined – Underground g/t 3.51 3.36 3.43 3.33 3.80 3.49 Total Tonnes Mined - Underground Mt 0.5 0.9 1.1 0.9 0.8 4.1Ore Milled Mt 3.7 3.8 3.6 3.4 3.4 17.9 Ore Grade Milled g/t 1.66 1.43 1.69 1.89 1.85 1.70 Following FID on the CMA underground operation in January 2025, the project is due to cut the first of four underground portals in Q1 FY26. The expansion to include underground operations allows further exploitation of the CMA deposit, which has proven to be a reliable and well understood geological domain of the Yaouré operation to date. At steady state production, it is planned that underground ore will represent approximately 20% of the tonnes of ore mined on the site from both open cut and underground operations. Since approving FID, Perseus has worked with its mining contractor to further develop the mine schedule ahead of commencement of underground operations in Q1 FY26. This milestone is aligned to the project schedule detailed in ASX announcement 'Perseus Mining takes final investment decision on CMA Underground Project at Yaouré' dated 28 January 2025. As of this update, changes to the underground schedule have resulted in the development capital allocated for the CMA underground increasing by 36% from the approved US$124.6M to US$170M. Development capital for CMA Underground has increased due to bringing forward underground development into the pre-commercial production period and updated capitalisation methodology to include royalties and G&A previously expensed. Further optimisation of the Yaouré life of mine plan is scheduled as several on-lease targets are assessed as part of the regular mine planning is forecast to be the lowest cost operation in the Perseus's portfolio. Gold production totals 725koz – 750koz, with peak metal output in FY28 over the five-year outlook. The weighted average AISC ranges between US$1,230/oz - US$1,330/oz. Nyanzaga's increasing contribution to Perseus's portfolio underscores the decision to acquire and proceed with project development. During the five-year period, all of the Nyanzaga's Kilimani pit is mined providing initial ore supply to the mill with the remainder of the material sourced from the main Nyanzaga deposit. All material mined is part of the stated Ore Reserve (see ASX announcement 'Perseus Mining proceeds with development of the Nyanzaga Gold Project' dated 28 April 2025). Total gold production over Nyanzaga's current 11-year life of mine, Phase 1 mine production is currently estimated to be 2.01 Moz based on a JORC 2012 Probable Ore Reserve of 52.0 Mt @ 1.40 g/t gold for 2.3 Moz. The development capital cost for the plant and site infrastructure is estimated at US$472M inclusive of US$49M of contingency, and pre-production capital of US$51M, giving a total capital cost to first gold pour of US$ PRODUCTION INDICATORS UNITS FY26 FY27 FY28 FY29 FY30 TOTAL 5 YEAR OUTLOOKOre Mined – Open pit Mt - 1.8 6.3 6.2 6.2 20.5 Ore Grade Mined – Open pit g/t - 1.02 1.37 1.39 1.25 1.31 Total Mined – Open pit Mt 1.0 31.1 47.2 47.2 48.9 175.4 Strip Ratio t:t - 16.74 6.51 6.56 6.84 7.55Ore Milled Mt - 1.8 6.1 5.7 5.6 19.1 Ore Grade Milled g/t - 1.02 1.40 1.47 1.32 1.37 As previously advised, Perseus has committed to completing a second round of infill drilling at Nyanzaga, involving a number of drilling programmes aimed at confirming the tenor of the current mineralisation and testing extensions of the known mineralisation. Results received to date have been compelling and Perseus is expected to update the Mineral Resource and Ore Reserves (MROR) in Q1 FY27, in line with our annual MROR updated five-year outlook combines mining from the existing Nkosuo deposit and the commencement of a cutback of the Esuajah North pit, along with the second phase of mining at the Fetish pit, following completion of mining of the first phase in April 2025. Total gold production over this period is expected to be 720koz – 750koz, with a weighted average AISC of around US$1,450/oz – US$1,550/oz per Fetish and Esuajah North cutbacks have been incorporated into the updated five-year plan, reflecting the opportunity to extend Edikan's mine life at an incremental AISC. Together, the Fetish and Esuajah North cutbacks attract capitalised waste stripping costs of $168M but contribute ~200koz of production to Edikan's mine life and diversify the ore availability in the PRODUCTION INDICATORS UNITS FY26 FY27 FY28 FY29 FY30 TOTAL 5 YEAR OUTLOOKOre Mined – Open pit Mt 5.7 6.4 4.3 4.5 1.4 22.4 Ore Grade Mined – Open pit g/t 0.90 0.90 0.92 1.24 2.44 1.07 Total Mined – Open pit Mt 15.6 34.2 16.9 8.0 1.8 76.6 Strip Ratio t:t 1.73 4.36 2.95 0.78 0.23 2.43Ore tonnes - Underground Mt - - 0.2 1.3 1.2 2.7 Ore Grade Mined – Underground g/t - - 1.68 1.82 2.08 1.93 Total Tonnes Mined - Underground Mt - - 0.5 1.7 1.3 3.5Ore Milled Mt 7.4 7.5 5.4 5.8 3.5 29.7 Ore Grade Milled g/t 0.81 0.84 0.79 0.93 1.14 0.88 In addition to these open-pit sources, Perseus is progressing an updated Feasibility Study for the Esuajah South underground deposit, with a view to bringing this project into production later in the decade. If approved through to development, Esuajah South would become the company's second underground mine and its first such operation in Ghana. The combination of Fetish, Esuajah North, and Esuajah South underground has extended the life of mine plane out to FY32. Perseus remains committed to brownfields exploration on its existing mining leases and exploration licences at Edikan to support ongoing production growth and to extend the Edikan production pipeline over the longer updated five-year outlook involves the continuation of mining at Sissingué Stage 4 open pit and commencement of new mining areas at Bagoé and Airport West (included in Sissingué in ) in FY26, as well as a Sissingué Stage 5 open pit cutback in FY27.

Reporting on Stingray's fiscal 2025 and fourth quarter results, President, Co-Founder and CEO Eric Boyko stated: 'Fiscal 2025 was a highly successful year that checked many boxes in our profitable growth strategy. First, advertising revenues for our Broadcast and Recurring Commercial Music segment, which comprises our FAST channel and retail media advertising units, increased by more than 45% for a second consecutive year as advertisers increasingly relied on connected TVs to maximize their advertising dollars. Accordingly, we invested in our FAST channel platform in 2025, including the recent launch of channels like Cozy Café, Movie Music, Stargaze and Cityscapes, to position Stingray as the No. 1 supplier of musical and ambient channels for connected TVs. To take advantage of growing listening hours on FAST channels worldwide, we also introduced Stingray's Premium Connected TV Ad Inventory Network to enable alternative vendors to sell unsold inventory.' 'Second, our collaboration with IAB Canada and Leger to produce a breakthrough report about the evolution of in-store audio advertising in Canada has consolidated our standing as the de facto leader in this growing sector. We are true trailblazers in this market, evangelizing retailers about the untapped potential of in-store media ads, adding sales representatives and partners to increase inventory selling, and optimizing our pricing structure to improve monetization.' 'Third, double-digit organic growth for a second straight year reflects the judicious investment decisions Stingray has made to sustain revenue growth and drive profitability.' 'Finally, we reduced our net debt level by more than $27 million in 2025, closing the fiscal year with a Net Debt to Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA ratio of 2.28 times and well within our target range.' 'In this encouraging context, Broadcasting and Commercial Music revenues increased 17.8% to $254.5 million in 2025, driven by higher FAST channel revenues, greater equipment and installation sales related to digital signage, and a positive foreign exchange impact,' Mr. Boyko added. 'Radio revenues improved 2.3% year-over-year to $132.3 million in 2025 mainly due to higher digital revenues. We are particularly pleased that our strategy to leverage the Radio sales team in Canada to sell in-store audio and video ads is beginning to deliver meaningful results. This latest facet of our plan helped to generate Radio revenue growth of nearly 4% in the fourth quarter despite a tight market environment.' 'Looking ahead to fiscal 2026, our capital allocation priorities are well-defined. We intend to sustain our momentum by re-investing in high-growth growth areas of our business; lowering our net debt level to a leverage ratio approaching 2.0 times; seeking acquisitions on an opportunistic basis; and continuing to reward shareholders with our well-established NCIB and dividend programs,' Mr. Boyko concluded. Fourth Quarter ResultsRevenues in the fourth quarter of 2025 increased $12.3 million, or 14.8%, to $96.0 million from $83.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2024. The growth was mainly due to an increase in FAST channel revenues and a positive foreign exchange impact. Revenues in Canada rose $1.2 million, or 2.7%, to $46.8 million from $45.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2024. The growth was mainly due to an increase in Radio revenue mostly driven by higher local sales. Revenues in the United States grew $11.8 million, or 45.0%, to $38.0 million from $26.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2024. The increase can be attributed to higher FAST channel revenues and a positive foreign exchange impact. Revenues in Other countries decreased $0.7 million, or 5.5%, to $11.2 million from $11.9 million in Q4 2024. The year-over-year decline was mainly due to lower in-store commercial revenues. Broadcasting and Commercial Music revenues in the fourth quarter of 2025 increased $11.2 million, or 20.9%, to $64.6 million from $53.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2024. The growth was primarily driven by higher FAST channel revenues and a positive foreign exchange impact. For the fourth quarter of 2025, Radio revenues improved $1.1 million, or 3.9%, to $31.4 million from $30.3 million in the same period of 2024. This increase was largely due to higher local revenues. Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA in the fourth quarter of 2025 increased $5.6 million, or 19.0%, to $35.0 million from $29.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2024. Adjusted EBITDA margin in the fourth quarter of 2025 rose to 36.5% from 35.2% in the same period last year. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin was mainly due to higher revenues, partially offset by greater operating expenses related mainly to higher salaries. For the fourth quarter of 2025, net income totaled $7.7 million, or $0.11 per share, compared to a net loss of $46.3 million, or ($0.67) per share, in the fourth quarter of 2024. The variance was mainly due to a one-time impairment charge of $56.1 million on goodwill related to the Radio segment in the comparable period in 2024 and higher operating results in Q4 2025. These factors were partially offset by a foreign exchange loss and an unrealized loss on derivative financial instruments in the most recent quarter. Cash flow generated from operating activities amounted to $39.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to $44.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2024. The decline was primarily due to a foreign exchange loss, higher income taxes paid, as well as greater acquisition, legal, restructuring and other costs. These factors were partially offset by improved operating results. Adjusted free cash flow generated in the fourth quarter of 2025 totaled $18.4 million compared to $15.6 million in the same period last year. The increase was mainly related to improved operating results, partially offset by higher income taxes paid. As of March 31, 2025, the Corporation had cash and cash equivalents of $14.0 million and credit facilities of $341.4 million. The credit facility consists of a $500 million revolving credit facility, of which $156.3 million was available. Full-Year ResultsFiscal 2025 revenues increased $41.5 million, or 12.0%, to $386.9 million from $345.4 million in 2024. The growth was largely due to higher FAST channel revenues, greater equipment and installation sales related to digital signage, and a positive foreign exchange impact. Adjusted EBITDA in fiscal 2025 improved by $16.3 million, or 13.0%, to $142.2 million from $125.9 million in 2024. Adjusted EBITDA margin in 2025 reached 36.8% compared to 36.4% in 2024. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin was mainly driven by higher revenues, partially offset by greater operating expenses related mostly to higher salaries. Net income in fiscal 2025 totaled $36.4 million, or $0.53 per share, compared to a net loss of $13.7 million, or ($0.20) per share, in 2024. The variance was primarily due to a one-time impairment charge of $56.1 million on goodwill related to the Radio segment in the comparable period in 2024 and to higher operating results in 2025. These factors were partially offset by an unrealized loss on derivative financial instruments, a one-time settlement gain related to a trademark dispute in the comparable period in 2024, and a higher foreign exchange loss. Adjusted net income in fiscal 2025 amounted to $72.7 million, or $1.05 per share, compared to $60.3 million, or $0.87 per share, in 2024. The increase can mainly be attributed to higher operating results and lower interest expense, partially offset by a greater foreign exchange loss. Declaration of DividendThe Corporation declared a dividend of $0.075 per subordinate voting share, variable subordinate voting share and multiple voting share on March 25, 2025. The dividend will be payable on or around June 13, 2025, to shareholders on record as of May 30, 2025.

Such forward-looking information includes, but is not limited to, information with respect to Stingray's goals, beliefs, plans, expectations, anticipations, estimates and intentions. Forward-looking information is identified by the use of terms and phrases such as "may", "would", "should", "could", "expect", "intend", "estimate", "anticipate", "plan", "foresee", "believe", and "continue", or the negative of these terms and similar terminology, including references to assumptions. Please note, however, that not all forward-looking information contains these terms and phrases. Forward-looking information is based upon a number of assumptions and is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond Stingray's control. These risks and uncertainties could cause actual results to differ materially from those that are disclosed in or implied by such forward-looking information. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the risk factors identified in Stingray's Annual Information Form for the year ended March 31, 2025, which is available on SEDAR at Consequently, all of the forward-looking information contained herein is qualified by the foregoing cautionary statements, and there can be no guarantee that the results or developments that Stingray anticipates will be realized or, even if substantially realized, that they will have the expected consequences or effects on Stingray's business, financial condition or results of operation.

Non-IFRS MeasuresThe Corporation believes that Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are important measures when analyzing its operating profitability without being influenced by financing decisions, non-cash items and income taxes strategies. Comparison with peers is also easier as companies rarely have the same capital and financing structure. The Corporation believes that Adjusted Net income and Adjusted Net income per share are important measures as it shows stable results from its operation which allows users of the financial statements to better assess the trend in the profitability of the business. The Corporation believes that Adjusted free cash flow and Adjusted free cash flow per share are important measures when assessing the amount of cash generated after accounting for capital expenditures and non-core charges. It demonstrates cash available to make business acquisitions, pay dividend and reduce debt. The Corporation believes that Net debt and Net debt to Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA are important to analyse the company's debt repayment capacity on an annualized basis, taking into consideration the annualized adjusted EBITDA of acquisitions made during the last twelve months. Each of these non-IFRS financial measures is not an earnings or cash flow measure recognized by International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and does not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS. This method of calculating such financial measures may differ from the methods used by other issuers and, accordingly, our definition of these non-IFRS financial measures may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. Investors are cautioned that non-IFRS financial measures should not be construed as an alternative to net income determined in accordance with IFRS as indicators of our performance or to cash flows from operating activities as measures of liquidity and cash flows.
