Rise Gold Corp. shareholder Daniel Oliver Jr. has filed an amended Schedule 13D reporting beneficial ownership of 18,108,768 common shares, representing 13.95% of the class based on 127,543,837 shares outstanding as of June 15, 2026. Through Myrmikan Capital, LLC, he is deemed to share voting and investment power over 14,663,191 shares, or 11.50% of the class, held of record by Myrmikan Gold Fund, LLC. His holdings include 1,869,070 shares underlying stock options and 365,854 shares underlying deferred share units. The filing notes warrant standstill agreements entered into and later amended, under which Mr. Oliver and the Fund have agreed not to exercise their warrants, so the warrant shares are not currently counted as beneficially owned under Section 13(d). The amendment states there have been no material transactions in Rise Gold securities since the prior amendment and is being made mainly to add previously omitted exhibits, including the joint filing agreement and forms of amended and restated warrant standstill agreements.
Rise Gold Corp. remains an exploration-stage company focused on the Idaho-Maryland Mine in California and continues to generate no operating revenue. For the nine months ended April 30, 2026, it recorded a net loss of $3,198,410 and an accumulated deficit of $36,693,385.
Cash and cash equivalents rose to $7,962,924, with working capital of $7,406,191, largely driven by two equity financings totaling $10,000,000 and option and warrant exercises. Total assets were $9,487,539 against current liabilities of $670,071 and no long-term debt.
Spending increased on legal, consulting, and share-based compensation as the company pursued litigation over its claimed vested right to mine and responded to a Clean Water Act citizen suit. A California court denied its Writ of Mandamus related to vested rights, and a federal court granted Summary Judgment as to liability against its subsidiary in the citizen suit, with trial on remaining issues scheduled for July 12, 2027.
The report continues to be prepared on a going-concern basis and notes dependence on additional financing over time. Management also reports a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting due to limited personnel and lack of segregation of duties.
Rise Gold Corp. reported that the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of California has granted summary judgment in favor of Community Environmental Advocates in Case 2:24-cv-03643, in litigation over alleged unpermitted pollutant discharges from historic Idaho-Maryland mine shafts under the Clean Water Act.
The company’s subsidiary Rise Grass Valley is the defendant and continues to dispute that mine water below 200 feet is causing any violations, citing its sampling, geological conditions, and the presence of other pollutants that it says could not originate from the mine. Management and legal counsel are reviewing the ruling.
Rise notes that it acquired the Idaho-Maryland property in 2017, later submitted a dewatering and reopening permit application with an NPDES permit and water treatment plant in 2019, and that Nevada County denied the project’s environmental review and conditional use permit in 2024.
Rise Gold Corp. reports that the Superior Court of California for the County of Nevada has denied its Writ of Mandamus seeking recognition of a vested right to operate the Idaho-Maryland Mine without a permit. The Court found a constitutional right to mine vested in 1954 but concluded that any vested mining right was abandoned by no later than 1963.
The Company disagrees with the Court’s analysis, citing historical evidence it believes shows an intent to preserve mining rights, and plans to appeal. Rise states that if its Writ ultimately fails on appeal, it expects its mineral estate to lose all value and indicates it could then pursue a takings action seeking just compensation, which it conservatively estimates at at least $400 million.
Rise Gold Corp. CEO and President David George Watkinson reported compensation-related equity movements. He received a grant of 62,000 shares of Common Stock at a price of $0.0000 per share, bringing his direct Common Stock holdings to 312,000 shares after the transaction.
On the same date, 62,000 Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) were disposed of to the issuer and a new award of 62,000 RSUs was recorded. Footnotes state that the RSUs are fully vested on the grant date and each vested RSU entitles the holder to one share of Common Stock, which were acquired as reported.
Watkinson also holds stock options over Common Stock, including 60,000 underlying shares at an exercise price of $0.1000, 50,000 underlying shares at $0.2500, and 1,000,000 underlying shares at $0.1800, with expirations in 2030.
Rise Gold Corp. remains an exploration-stage company focused on the Idaho-Maryland Mine and reported a net loss of $2,583,608 for the six months ended January 31, 2026, compared with $1,314,726 a year earlier. The wider loss reflects higher share-based compensation, legal and professional fees, and consulting costs.
Cash and cash equivalents rose sharply to $8,028,205, up from $2,783,348 at July 31, 2025, driven mainly by an October 2025 private placement of $7,000,000 and option exercises. Working capital improved to $7,479,248 and all loans and the credit facility were repaid, leaving no non-current liabilities.
Management states it has sufficient funds for at least 12 months but still expects ongoing losses and future financing needs. Subsequent events include large warrant issuances under a strategic development partnership for the I-M Mine and additional option and warrant exercises. The company also discloses ongoing litigation and confirms a material weakness in internal control due to limited personnel.
Rise Gold Corp. CEO and President David George Watkinson reported equity compensation changes involving 250,000 shares. On January 5, 2026 he received 250,000 Restricted Stock Units (RSUs), fully vested on the grant date, each RSU representing one share of common stock.
On January 6, 2026 these 250,000 RSUs were disposed to the issuer and converted into 250,000 shares of common stock, which he now holds directly. He also retains stock options over 1,000,000 shares at $0.18, 50,000 shares at $0.25, and 60,000 shares at $0.10, all expiring in 2030.
