Eldorado Gold
Announces Renewal of Normal Course Issuer Bid
VANCOUVER, BC –
Eldorado Gold Corporation (TSX: ELD, NYSE: EGO) (“Eldorado” or “the Company”) announces
that it has received approval from the Toronto Stock Exchange (the "TSX") of Eldorado’s notice of intention to
renew its normal course issuer bid (the “NCIB”).
Pursuant to the
NCIB, Eldorado may purchase up to 13,065,993 common shares of Eldorado (“Common Shares”), which is 5% of the 261,319,863
issued and outstanding Common Shares as at July 27, 2026. Purchases will be made through the facilities of the TSX, the New York
Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) and alternative trading systems in Canada or the United States at prevailing market prices.
The NCIB will commence on August 5, 2026 and will end on July 31, 2027.
Under Eldorado’s
previous normal course issuer bid that commenced on August 6, 2025 and will end on July 31, 2026, under which Eldorado sought
and received approval from the TSX to purchase up to 10,159,967 Common Shares, 7,739,880 Common Shares were purchased on the open market
through the facilities of TSX, the NYSE and/or alternative trading systems in Canada or the United States at a volume weighted average
purchase price of C$43.56 per Common Share.
Daily purchases
on the TSX under the NCIB will be limited to 194,581 Common Shares, other than purchases made pursuant to the block purchase exception,
which represents 25% of the average daily trading volume of 778,325 Common Shares on the TSX for six months ending June 30, 2026.
Purchases on the NYSE will be subject to daily limitations and other conditions regarding the manner, timing, price and volume of purchases
in order to qualify for the safe harbor provided under applicable United States securities laws. The actual number of Common Shares which
may be purchased under the NCIB and the timing of any such purchases will be determined by the management of the Company, subject to
applicable laws and the rules of the TSX and NYSE.
Up to 12,865,993
Common Shares repurchased under the NCIB will be cancelled, and up to 200,000 Common Shares repurchased under the NCIB will remain outstanding
and be held in trust by Computershare Trust Company of Canada for the purposes of satisfying redemptions pursuant to Eldorado’s
restricted share unit plan (the “RSU Plan”) until such Common Shares are required to be transferred to designated
participants under the terms of the RSU Plan.
The NCIB is being
renewed as Eldorado believes the market price of the Common Shares may not, from time to time, fully reflect their long-term value. Accordingly,
the repurchase of the Common Shares under the NCIB is in the best interests of the Company and an attractive and appropriate use of available
funds given the strength of the balance sheet, progress on the Skouries Project and ongoing cash generation from the operations in a
high gold price environment. Eldorado is committed to enhancing shareholder returns through such programs as the NCIB.
In connection with
the NCIB, Eldorado has entered into an automatic share purchase plan with its designated broker to facilitate the purchase of Common
Shares during times when Eldorado would ordinarily not be permitted to purchase Common Shares due to regulatory restrictions or self-imposed
black-out periods. Before entering a black-out period, the Company may, but is not required to, instruct the broker to make purchases
under the NCIB based on parameters set by Eldorado in accordance with the automatic share purchase plan, applicable securities laws and
the rules of the TSX and NYSE.
Although Eldorado
has a present intention to acquire its Common Shares pursuant to the NCIB, Eldorado will not be obligated to make any purchases and purchases
may be suspended by Eldorado at any time.
A copy of Eldorado’s
Notice filed with the TSX may be obtained, by any shareholder without charge, by contacting Eldorado’s Corporate Secretary.
