Notes to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements
As at and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025
(Unaudited, tabular amounts expressed in thousands of Canadian dollars, unless otherwise noted)
1. Reporting entity
Seabridge Gold Inc. is comprised of Seabridge Gold Inc. (“Seabridge” or the “Company”) and its subsidiaries, KSM Mining Inc., Seabridge Gold (Yukon) Inc., Seabridge Gold Corp., SnipGold Corp., and Snowstorm Exploration (LLC), and is a Company engaged in acquiring, exploring, and advancing mineral properties, with an emphasis on gold resources, located in Canada and the United States of America. The Company was incorporated under the laws of British Columbia, Canada on September 14, 1979 and continued under the laws of Canada on October 31, 2002. Its common shares are listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange trading under the symbol “SEA” and on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “SA”. The Company is domiciled in Canada and the address of its registered office is 10th Floor, 595 Howe Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada V6C 2T5 and the address of its corporate office is 106 Front Street East, 4th Floor, Toronto, Ontario, Canada M5A 1E1.
In December 2025, the Company announced a plan to spin out its 100%-owned Courageous Lake Gold Project, located in the Northwest Territories of Canada and held through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Seabridge Gold (NWT) Inc., into a separate publicly listed company, Valor Gold Corp (Valor). As a result, the assets and liabilities associated with the Courageous Lake Project were classified as held for distribution in accordance with IFRS 5, Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations as of December 31, 2025. On May 22, 2026, shareholders approved the proposed spin-out transaction, satisfying a significant condition to its completion. On June 3, 2026, the Company completed the transaction through a plan of arrangement, pursuant to which the shares of Seabridge Gold (NWT) Inc. were transferred to Valor and Valor shares were distributed to Seabridge shareholders. The assets and liabilities previously classified as held for distribution were derecognized upon completion of the transaction. Further details are provided in Note 6.
2. Basis of preparation
a)Statement of compliance
These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements were prepared in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). The accounting policies applied in these interim financial statements are consistent with those used in the Company's annual audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025, except for the adoption of amendments to IFRS 9 “Financial Instruments” and IFRS 7 and the accounting policy adopted for the distribution of non-cash assets to shareholders. See Note 3.
These condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited annual consolidated financial statements. They do not include all of the information required for a complete set of financial statements prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. However, selected explanatory notes are included to explain events and transactions that are significant to an understanding of the changes in the Company’s financial position and performance since the last annual financial statements. These condensed consolidated interim financial statements were authorized for issue by the Company’s board of directors on August 13, 2026.
b)Significant accounting judgments, estimates and assumptions
The preparation of these condensed consolidated interim financial statements requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as at the date of the condensed consolidated interim financial statements and reported amounts of income and expenses during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026. The areas involving significant judgments, estimates and assumptions have been set out in Note 4 of the Company's annual audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025. Significant
judgments, estimates and assumptions arising from the Valor spin-out transaction and the gold stream asset are described below.
The fair value of the net assets distributed to shareholders in connection with the distribution of Valor Gold Corp. shares on June 3, 2026 was determined using a market-based approach based on comparable transactions. Judgment was required in determining representative transactions to arrive at the estimated fair value. In making this estimate, management made certain assumptions about a market participant’s view of fair value based on the relative size, scale, stage and complexity of the Courageous Lake Project. The valuation incorporates significant unobservable inputs and is classified as a Level 3 fair value measurement within the fair value hierarchy.
The fair value of the gold stream asset (refer to Note 6) was determined using a Monte Carlo valuation methodology. The inputs and assumptions used in determining the fair value were derived from observable market data where possible. A degree of estimation uncertainty was required in determining the discount rate used in determining the fair value of the gold stream asset. The valuation incorporates significant unobservable inputs and is classified as a Level 3 fair value measurement within the fair value hierarchy.
3. Material accounting policy information
a)Amended IFRS standard effective January 1, 2026
On May 30, 2024, the IASB issued narrow scope amendments to IFRS 9 “Financial Instruments” and IFRS 7. The amendments include clarification of the date of initial recognition or derecognition of financial liabilities, including financial liabilities that are settled in cash using an electronic payment system. The amendments also introduce additional disclosure requirements to enhance transparency regarding investments in equity instruments designated at FVOCI and financial instruments with contingent features. The application of these amendments did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated interim financial statements.
b)Accounting pronouncements issued but not yet effective
On April 9, 2024, the IASB issued IFRS 18 “Presentation and Disclosure in the Financial Statements” (“IFRS 18”) replacing IAS 1. IFRS 18 introduces categories and defined subtotals in the statement of profit or loss, disclosures on management-defined performance measures, and requirements to improve the aggregation and disaggregation of information in the financial statements. As a result of IFRS 18, amendments to IAS 7 were also issued to require that entities use the operating profit subtotal as the starting point for the indirect method of reporting cash flows from operating activities and also to remove presentation alternatives for interest and dividends paid and received. Similarly, amendments to IAS 33 “Earnings per Share” were issued to permit disclosure of additional earnings per share figures using any other component of the statement of profit or loss, provided the numerator is a total or subtotal defined under IFRS 18. IFRS 18 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027, and is to be applied retrospectively, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of the standard on its financial statements.
4. Completion of Valor Gold distribution
In 2002, the Company purchased a 100% interest in the Courageous Lake gold project from Newmont Canada Limited and Total Resources (Canada) Limited. The Courageous Lake gold project consists of mining leases located in the Northwest Territories of Canada.
On June 3, 2026, the Company completed the previously announced spin-out of the Courageous Lake Project through a plan of arrangement. Prior to completion of the arrangement, the Courageous Lake Project was held through Seabridge Gold (NWT) Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Pursuant to the arrangement, the shares of Seabridge Gold (NWT) Inc. were transferred to Valor, resulting in Valor acquiring ownership of the Courageous Lake Project.
As part of the arrangement, Seabridge shareholders received 0.511 common shares of Valor for each common share of Seabridge held.
Immediately prior to completion of the arrangement, the Company acquired a gold stream interest on the Courageous Lake Project for $4.9 million. The gold stream asset is accounted for separately from the distribution and is discussed in Note 6. The fair value of the gold stream asset was determined using a Monte Carlo valuation methodology and was measured at $13.6 million. The difference between the $4.9 million paid for the gold stream asset prior to the distribution of Valor and the fair value determined using the Monte Carlo valuation methodology was recognized immediately on distribution of Valor and is included in the gain on distribution.
The transaction was accounted for in accordance with IFRIC 17, Distributions of Non-cash Assets to Owners.
The fair value of Valor Gold Corp. was determined using a market-based approach based on comparable market transactions for other projects of similar size, scale, stage and complexity to the Courageous Lake Project. The fair value of Valor at the date of distribution was determined to be $211.8 million, resulting in a gain on distribution of $151.7 million for the three and six month ended June 30, 2026.
Upon completion of the arrangement, the Company derecognized the assets and liabilities associated with the Courageous Lake Project and recognized the following gain on distribution:
| | | | | |
| ($000s) | June 3, 2026 |
| Carrying value of Courageous Lake mineral interests | 83,657 | |

Continued exploration of the Company’s mineral properties is subject to certain lease payments, project holding costs, rental fees and filing fees.
During the six months ended June 30, 2026, $0.3 million of mineral interest expenditures were incurred in respect of Courageous Lake prior to completion of the distribution and were included in the gain on distribution calculation in Note 4.
During the six months ended June 30, 2026, additions to construction in progress at KSM consisted of $36.5 million assets under construction costs, $16.8 million of capitalized borrowing costs, and $1.1 million of capitalized depreciation expense.
During the comparative six months ended June 30, 2025, additions to construction in progress consisted of $14.6 million assets under construction costs, $17.2 million of capitalized borrowing costs, and $1.3 million of capitalized depreciation expense.
6. Gold stream asset
On June 3, 2026, in connection with the completion of the Valor Gold spin-out transaction, the Company acquired a gold stream interest on the Courageous Lake Project pursuant to a Gold Purchase Agreement ("Agreement") with Valor Gold Corp.
Under the Agreement, the Company is required to purchase 10% of refined gold production from the Courageous Lake Project. Delivery and purchase commence upon the achievement of commercial
production and are required for quarters in which the average quarterly gold price equals or exceeds US$4,000 per ounce. For each ounce delivered, the Company will pay US$4,000 per ounce. The Agreement has an initial term of 40 years and may be extended in accordance with its terms.
Immediately prior to completion of the arrangement, the Company acquired the gold stream asset for $4.9 million. The fair value of the gold stream asset at the date of distribution was determined using a Monte Carlo valuation methodology and was measured at $13.6 million on June 3, 2026. The Company concluded that the gold stream is a financial instrument within the scope of IFRS 9 and is measured at fair value through profit or loss.
As at June 30, 2026, the gold stream asset was remeasured to an estimated fair value of $11.7 million, resulting in a net unrealized loss of $1.9 million recognized in the condensed consolidated statement of operations during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 .
Significant valuation inputs included forecast gold production, future gold prices, long-term inflation rate assumptions, the contractual stream terms, the timing of expected cash flows and market participant discount rates. The valuation incorporates significant unobservable inputs and is classified as a Level 3 fair value measurement within the fair value hierarchy.
Significant assumptions and inputs used in the valuation were as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| Key inputs and assumptions | June 3, 2026 | June 30, 2026 |
| Forecast attributable production in thousands of ounces | 580 | 580 |
| Gold spot price per ounce | $4,437 | $4,008 |
| Gold stream discount factor | 37.7 | % | 37.7 | % |
| Risk-free rate | 5.0 | % | 5.0 | % |
| Credit spread | 4.1 | % | 4.1 | % |
| Gold price volatility | 17.5 | % | 17.5 | % |
| Expected commencement of production | 2033 | 2033 |
Sensitivity Analysis:
For the fair value of the gold stream, reasonably possible changes at the reporting date to one of the significant inputs, holding other inputs constant, would have the following effects:
| | | | | | | | |
| Key Inputs | Inter-relationship between significant inputs and fair value measurement | Increase (decrease) (millions) |
| Key observable inputs | The estimated fair value would increase (decrease) if: | |
•Long-term gold prices | •Future gold prices were 10% higher | $ | 2.8 | |
| •Future gold prices were 10% lower | $ | (2.6) | |
•Discount rates | •Discount rates were 1% higher | $ | (1.0) | |
| •Discount rates were 1% lower | $ | 1.2 | |
| Key unobservable inputs | | |
•Forecasted production | •Gold production volumes were 10% higher | $ | 1.2 | |
| •Gold production volumes were 10% lower | $ | (1.2) | |
7. Accounts payable and accrued liabilities
| | | | | | | | |
| ($000s) | June 30, 2026 | December 31, 2025 |
| Trade payables | 6,398 | | 13,046 | |
| Trade accruals | 36,895 | | 2,939 | |
| Non-trade payables and other accrued liabilities | 4,107 | | 1,579 | |
| 47,400 | | 17,564 | |
Included in trade accruals at June 30, 2026 is $35.8 million related to the KSM Project, primarily for construction, development, engineering and feasibility study activities.
8. Provision for reclamation liabilities
The provision for reclamation liabilities represents the estimated present value of future costs to rehabilitate disturbed areas and meet environmental closure obligations. As at June 30, 2026, the provision for reclamation liabilities amounted to $5.2 million (December 31, 2025 - $5.4 million), of which $1.7 million is classified as current and $3.5 million as long‑term.
The movements in the provision for reclamation liabilities during the six months ended June 30, 2026 were as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| ($000s) | June 30, 2026 | June 30, 2025 |
| Beginning of period | 5,449 | | 7,292 | |
| Disbursements | (279) | | (267) | |
| Accretion | 27 | | 76 | |
| End of period | 5,197 | | 7,101 | |
The provision is measured using present value of future cash flows. The expected timing of cash outflows required to settle the obligations is over the next three years. The nominal discount rate used to calculate the present value of the reclamation obligations was 2.7% at June 30, 2026 (December 31, 2025 - 2.6%).
As at June 30, 2026, the Company has placed a total of $22.0 million (December 31, 2025 - $22.1 million) on deposit with financial institutions or with government regulators that are pledged as security against current and future reclamation liabilities. The deposits are recorded on the condensed consolidated interim statements of financial position as reclamation deposits. As at June 30, 2026, and December 31, 2025, the Company also had $10.0 million of uncollateralized surety bond in support of environmental closure costs obligations related to KSM.
9. Secured Note liabilities
i.2022 Secured Note
On March 24, 2022, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, KSM Mining Inc. (“KSMCo”) sold a secured note (“2022 Secured Note”) that is to be exchanged at maturity for a silver royalty on its KSM Project to the noteholder for US$225 million. The key terms of the 2022 Secured Note include:
•When the 2022 Secured Note matures, the noteholder will use all of the principal amount repaid on maturity to purchase a 60% gross silver royalty (the “Silver Royalty”). Maturity occurs upon the first of:
a)Commercial production being achieved at KSM; and
b)March 24, 2032, or if the Environmental Assessment Certificate (“EAC”) expires, and the noteholder does not exercise their right to put the 2022 Secured Note to the Company, on March 24, 2035.
•Prior to its maturity, the 2022 Secured Note bears interest at 6.5% per annum, payable quarterly in arrears. The Company can elect to satisfy interest payments in cash or by delivering common shares but subject to the limitation that no amount payable can be paid in common shares if, after the payment, the noteholder (on its own or when aggregated with the holdings of any person owning a beneficial interest in the 2022 Secured Note) would own more than 9.9% of the Company’s outstanding shares.
•The Company has the option to buyback 50% of the Silver Royalty, once exchanged, on or before three years after commercial production has been achieved, for an amount that provides the noteholder a minimum guaranteed annualized return.
•If project financing to develop, construct and place KSM into commercial production is not in place by March 24, 2027, the noteholder can put the 2022 Secured Note back to the Company for US$232.5 million, (“Silver Financing Put”) with the Company able to satisfy such amount in cash or by delivering common shares at its option subject to limitations noted above. This right expires once such project financing is in place. If the noteholder exercises this put right, their right to purchase the Silver Royalty terminates.
•If KSM’s EAC expires at any time while the 2022 Secured Note is outstanding, the noteholder can put the 2022 Secured Note back to the Company for US$247.5 million at any time over the following nine months, with the Company able to satisfy such amount in cash or by delivering common shares at its option subject to limitations noted above. If the noteholder exercises this put right, their right to purchase the Silver Royalty terminates.
•If commercial production is not achieved at KSM prior to March 24, 2032, the Silver Royalty payable to the noteholder will increase to a 75% gross silver royalty (if the EAC expires during the term of the 2022 Secured Note and the corresponding put right is not exercised by the noteholder, this increase will occur at the thirteenth anniversary from closing). As at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the fair value of the 2022 Secured Note was calculated based on a 75% gross silver royalty.
•The Company’s obligations under the 2022 Secured Note are secured by a charge over all of the assets of KSMCo and a limited recourse guarantee from the Company secured by a pledge of the shares of KSMCo.
During the second quarter of 2026, the 2022 Secured Note agreement was amended, extending the Silver Financing Put exercise date to March 24, 2028 and increasing the put exercise amount by 6.5% to US$247.1 million.
To satisfy the interest payment on the 2022 Secured Note, the Company issued 293,956 common shares, in respect of the interest incurred during the six months ended June 30, 2026 (six months ended June 30, 2025 - 585,395 common shares).
A number of the above noted options within the agreement represent embedded derivatives. Management has elected to not separate these embedded derivatives from the underlying host secured note, and instead account for the entire secured note as a financial liability at fair value through profit or loss.
The 2022 Secured Note was recognized at its estimated fair value at initial recognition of $282.3 million (US$225 million) using a discounted cash flow model with a Monte Carlo simulation. This incorporated several scenarios and probabilities of the EAC expiring, achieving commercial production securing project financing, silver prices and discount rates. As at June 30, 2026, the fair value of the 2022 Secured Note is determined based on the assumption that the EAC will not expire.
According to IFRS 13, the fair value of a financial liability with a demand feature must not be lower than the amount payable on demand, discounted from the earliest possible date that payment could be demanded. Based on the evaluation of the likelihood of various scenarios regarding the timeline for securing project financing, the Company continues to assume that the Silver Financing Put would become exercisable on March 24, 2028.
As at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the fair value of the 2022 Secured Note exceeded the discounted value of the contractual cash flows related to the Silver Financing Put embedded within the 2022 Secured Note, leading the Company to record the higher amount.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, the fair value of the 2022 Secured Note increased by $24.4 million and $7.3 million, respectively (three and six months ended June 30, 2025 - decreased by $12.8 million and $9.3 million, respectively). The following key inputs and assumptions were used in the determination of fair value:
| | | | | | | | |
| Key inputs and assumptions | June 30, 2026 | December 31, 2025 |
| Forecast silver production in thousands of ounces | 166,144 | 166,144 |
Silver spot price per ounce 1 | $58.80 | $71.99 |
| Royalty rate | 75 | % | 75 | % |
| Risk-free rate | 4.9 | % | 4.8 | % |
| Credit spread | 5.3 | % | 4.6 | % |
| Share price volatility | 60 | % | 60 | % |
| Silver royalty discount factor | 15.8 | % | 14.5 | % |
1.The metal prices used in the model are based on the quoted forward prices where available and adjusted for forward risk-free rates and cost of carry beyond quoted future forward prices.
The movements in the carrying value of the 2022 Secured Note during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| ($000s) | Three months ended June 30, | Six months ended June 30, |
| 2026 | 2025 | 2026 | 2025 |

| Fair value end of the period | 341,608 | | 304,508 | | 341,608 | | 304,508 | |
Sensitivity Analysis:
For the fair value of the 2022 Secured Note, reasonably possible changes at the reporting date to one of the significant inputs, holding other inputs constant, would have the following effects:
| | | | | | | | |
| Key Inputs | Inter-relationship between significant inputs and fair value measurement | Increase (decrease) (millions) |

ii.2023 Secured Note
On June 29, 2023, the Company and KSMCo, sold a secured note (“2023 Secured Note”) that is to be exchanged at maturity for a net smelter returns royalty (the “NSR”) on its 100% owned KSM for US$150 million. The key terms of the 2023 Secured Note include:
•When the 2023 Secured Note matures, the noteholder will use all of the principal amount repaid on maturity to purchase a 1% NSR, subject to adjustment of the amount as described below. Maturity occurs upon the first to occur of:
a)Commercial production being achieved at KSM; and
b)March 24, 2032 or, if the EAC expires and the noteholder does not exercise their right to put the 2023 Secured Note to the Company, on March 24, 2035.
•Prior to its maturity, the 2023 Secured Note bears interest at 6.5% per annum, payable quarterly in arrears. Under the terms of the agreement, payment of quarterly interest due on or before June 29, 2025 (the “Deferred Interest”) was deferred and the Deferred Interest plus interest accrued on it (the “Interest Deferral Amount”) was settled in shares on December 29, 2025.
•The Company can elect to satisfy quarterly interest payments, by paying in cash or Seabridge common shares at its option subject to limitations noted below. If commercial production is not achieved at KSM prior to March 24, 2032, the NSR on the Maturity Date will increase to 1.25%
•The Company has the option to buyback 50% of the NSR to a 0.5% NSR (or to 0.625%) on or before three years after commercial production has been achieved, for an amount that provides the noteholder a minimum guaranteed annualized return.
•If project financing to develop, construct and place KSM into commercial production is not in place by March 24, 2027, the noteholder can put the 2023 Secured Note back to the Company for US$155 million, (“NSR Financing Put”) plus accrued and unpaid interest. This put right expires once
such project financing is in place. If the noteholder exercises this put right, their right to purchase the NSR terminates.
•If KSM’s EAC expires at anytime while the 2023 Secured Note is outstanding, the noteholder can put the 2023 Secured Note back to the Company at any time over the following nine months for US$165 million plus accrued and unpaid interest.
If the noteholder exercises this put right, their right to purchase the NSR terminates.
•The Company can elect to satisfy payments due on the exercise of either of the put rights in cash or by delivering common shares at its options subject to limitations noted below.
•No amount payable shall be paid in common shares if, after the payment, the noteholder would own more than 9.9% of the Company’s outstanding shares.
•The Company’s obligations under the 2023 Secured Note are secured by a charge over all of the assets of KSMCo and a limited recourse guarantee from the Company secured by a pledge of the shares of KSMCo.
During the second quarter of 2026, the 2023 Secured Note agreement was amended, extending the NSR Financing Put exercise date to March 24, 2028 and increasing the put exercise amount by 6.5% to US$164.8 million.
To satisfy the interest payment on the 2023 Secured Note for the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company issued 195,971 common shares in settlement of interest incurred during the period. Interest incurred during the six months ended June 30, 2025 was accrued as Deferred Interest. The Interest Deferral Amount was settled on December 29, 2025 through the issuance of 774,841 Seabridge common shares.
A number of the above noted options within the agreement represent embedded derivatives. Management has elected to not separate these embedded derivatives from the underlying host secured note, and instead account for the entire secured note as a financial liability at fair value through profit or loss.
The 2023 Secured Note was recognized at its estimated fair value at initial recognition of $198.8 million (US$150 million) using a discounted cash flow model with a Monte Carlo simulation. This incorporated several scenarios and probabilities of the EAC expiring, achieving commercial production, securing project financing, metal prices forecast and discount rates. As at June 30, 2026, the fair value of the 2023 Secured Note is determined based on the assumption that the EAC will not expire.
According to IFRS 13, the fair value of a financial liability with a demand feature must not be lower than the amount payable on demand, discounted from the earliest possible date that payment could be demanded. Based on the evaluation of the likelihood of various scenarios regarding the timeline for securing project financing, the Company continues to assume that the NSR Financing Put would become exercisable on March 24, 2028.
As at June 30, 2026, and December 31, 2025, the fair value of the 2023 Secured Note exceeded the discounted value of the contractual cash flows related to the NSR Financing Put embedded within the note, leading the Company to record the higher amount.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, the fair value of the 2023 Secured Note decreased by $20.8 million and $44.7 million, respectively (three and six months ended June 30, 2025 - increased by $32.3 million and $22.6 million, respectively). The following key inputs and assumptions were used in the determination of fair value:

10. Shareholders’ equity
The Company is authorized to issue an unlimited number of preferred shares and common shares with no par value. No preferred shares have been issued or were outstanding at June 30, 2026 or December 31, 2025.
The Company manages its capital structure and makes adjustments to it, based on the funds available to the Company, in order to support the acquisition, exploration and development of mineral properties. The Board of Directors does not establish quantitative return on capital criteria for management, but rather relies on the expertise of the Company’s management to sustain future development of the business.
The properties in which the Company currently has an interest are in the pre-operating stage, as such the Company is dependent on external financing to fund its activities. In order to carry out the planned exploration and pay for administrative costs, the Company anticipates spending its existing working capital and raising additional amounts as needed.
Management reviews its capital management approach on an ongoing basis and believes that this approach, given the relative size of the Company, is reasonable. There were no changes in the Company’s approach to capital management during the first half of 2026. The Company considers its capital to be share capital, stock-based compensation, contributed surplus and deficit. The Company is not subject to externally imposed capital requirements.
a)Equity financing
During the first quarter of 2025, the Company established an At-The-Market ("ATM") equity program permitting the issuance of up to US$100 million of common shares from time to time. During the first quarter of 2026, the Company issued 759,222 common shares under the ATM program at an average selling price of $48.15 per share for net proceeds of $35.8 million, representing the remaining capacity available under the program.
During the first quarter of 2025, the Company issued 126,750 common shares under the ATM program at an average selling price of $17.79 per share for net proceeds of $2.2 million.
During the second quarter of 2025, the Company also issued 1,200,000 flow-through common shares at $25.38 per share for gross proceeds of $30.5 million. A flow-through premium liability of $6.2 million was recognized on issuance. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company incurred $2.7 million of qualifying exploration expenditures and recognized $0.5 million of the flow-through premium in other income.
b) Share-based payments
The Company provides share‑based compensation to officers and employees in the form of restricted share units (“RSUs”) and to the directors as deferred share units (“DSUs”) in accordance with the Seabridge Gold Inc. Restricted Share Unit and Deferred Share Unit Plan (the “Plan”). All awards granted under the Plan are equity‑settled and are accounted for in accordance with IFRS 2 – Share‑based Payment.
RSUs
RSUs are granted to employees and officers of the Company and vest in accordance with the vesting conditions specified in the applicable award agreements. RSUs may contain service‑based, performance‑based, and market‑based vesting conditions. Upon vesting, each RSU entitles the holder to receive one common share of the Company, net of any applicable withholding taxes. Unvested RSUs are forfeited if the vesting conditions are not satisfied.
DSUs
DSUs are granted to directors of the Company and vest in accordance with the terms of the applicable award agreements. DSUs are not payable until the holder ceases to provide services to the Company,
after which the holder is entitled to receive one common share of the Company for each DSU held. DSUs do not carry voting rights, and dividend equivalents declared on the Company’s common shares are credited to the holder in the form of additional DSUs prior to settlement.
During the second quarter of 2026, the Company granted 36,319 RSUs and 3,651 DSUs in connection with the completion of the Valor Gold Corp. spin-out transaction. The additional units were issued pursuant to the adjustment provisions of the Company's Plan to preserve the economic value of outstanding awards following the distribution of Valor shares to Seabridge shareholders. The adjustment was intended to place holders of outstanding RSUs and DSUs in a substantially equivalent economic position immediately before and after completion of the spin-out
The following tables summarize the changes in RSUs and DSUs:
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| RSUs | DSUs | Total |

Fair value measurement and expense recognition
The grant‑date fair value of RSUs and DSUs is based on the quoted market price of the Company’s common shares on the grant date.
For RSUs that include market‑based vesting conditions, the grant‑date fair value incorporates the effect of such conditions using an appropriate valuation methodology consistent with IFRS 2. Market‑based vesting conditions are not adjusted for actual outcomes and are reflected in compensation expense regardless of whether the market‑based conditions are ultimately satisfied.
For RSUs that include service‑based and non‑market performance vesting conditions, the grant‑date fair value is not adjusted for these conditions. Compensation expense for these awards is recognized over the applicable vesting period and is adjusted for actual forfeitures and the achievement of non‑market performance conditions.
The grant‑date fair value of DSUs is recognized as compensation expense over the applicable service period specified in the award agreement.
Share‑based compensation expense recognized in profit or loss was:

c) Basic and diluted net income per common share
Basic and diluted net income attributable to common shareholders for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 was $117.5 million and $110.9 million, respectively (three and six months ended June 30, 2025 – $12.3 million and $22.9 million, respectively).
Net income per share has been calculated using the weighted average number of common shares and common share equivalents issued and outstanding during the period. Potentially dilutive instruments are included in diluted earnings per share using the treasury method when applicable. The following table details the weighted average number of outstanding common shares for the purpose of computing basic and diluted loss per common share for the following periods:

12. Fair value of financial assets and liabilities
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy establishes three levels to classify the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value.
Level 1: Inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Inputs are quoted prices in markets that are not active, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (for example, interest rate and yield curves observable at commonly quoted intervals, forward pricing curves used to value currency and commodity contracts, volatility measurements used to value option contracts and observable credit default swap spreads to adjust for credit risk where appropriate), or inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data or other means.
Level 3: Inputs are unobservable (supported by little or no market activity).
The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs and the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs.
During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company determined the fair value of the Valor distribution at $211.8 million. The fair value measurement was classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy due to the use of significant unobservable inputs. The valuation was determined using a market-based approach based on comparable market transactions involving projects of similar size, scale, stage and complexity to the Courageous Lake Project.
The Company’s fair values of financial assets and liabilities were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| ($000s) | June 30, 2026 |
| Carrying Amount | Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 3 | Fair Value |

| Liabilities | | | | | |
| Secured note liabilities | 598,517 | | - | | - | | 598,517 | | 598,517 | |
The following table summarizes the changes in the carrying amount of the Level 3 gold stream asset during the six months ended June 30, 2026:
| | | | | |
| ($000s) | June 30, 2026 |
| Initial recognition | 13,600 | |
| Fair value loss recognized in profit or loss | (1,863) | |
| Fair value end of the period | 11,737 | |
The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, short-term deposits, amounts receivable and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values due to the short-term maturity of these financial assets and liabilities.
The Company’s financial risk exposures and the impact on the Company’s financial instruments are summarized below:
Credit Risk
The Company’s credit risk is primarily attributable to short-term deposits, and receivables included in amounts receivable and prepaid expenses. The Company has no significant concentration of credit risk arising from operations. The short-term deposits consist of Canadian Schedule I bank guaranteed notes, with terms up to one year but are cashable in whole or in part with interest at any time to maturity, for which management believes the risk of loss to be remote. Management believes that the risk of loss with respect to financial instruments included in amounts receivable and prepaid expenses to be remote.
Liquidity Risk
The Company’s approach to managing liquidity risk is to maintain sufficient cash resources and access to financing to meet obligations as they become due. As at June 30, 2026, the Company had cash and cash
equivalents of $81.5 million (December 31, 2025 - $117.5 million) and current financial liabilities of $49.7 million (December 31, 2025 - $21.0 million). Except for the secured note liabilities, lease obligations and the reclamation obligations, the Company’s financial liabilities primarily have contractual maturities of 30 days and are subject to normal trade terms.
Subsequent to June 30, 2026, the Company entered into an unsecured non-revolving loan agreement with a strategic investor providing for a loan facility of up to US$100.0 million. The facility bears interest at 7% per annum, is available through December 31, 2026 and may be used to fund the Company's working capital requirements and capital expenditures related to the KSM Project. Amounts drawn under the loan facility, if any, are due on or before December 31, 2026. Subject to the terms of the loan agreement, the Company may elect to settle all or a portion of the principal and accrued interest in cash, common shares, or a combination thereof. Any issuance of common shares is subject to TSX approval and applicable TSX pricing requirements. The issue price of any shares cannot be lower than the minimum price permitted under TSX requirements and, in all cases, is determined based on the greater of 92.5% of the 20-day volume weighted average trading price and the minimum price permitted by the TSX. The number of shares issuable is further limited such that the lender and its affiliates cannot own more than 4.9% of the Company's outstanding common shares following the issuance. To the extent these requirements are not satisfied, settlement must be made in cash.
As of the date these financial statements were authorized for issuance, no amounts had been drawn under the loan.
The Company’s ability to fund its operations and capital expenditures and other obligations as they become due is dependent upon market conditions. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company raised net proceeds of $35.8 million through issuances under its ATM equity program, which has now been fully utilized (see Note 10).
With respect to the secured notes (Note 9), and following an amendment to the secured note liabilities during the second quarter of 2026, as at June 30, 2026, the Company has assessed that the Silver and NSR Financing Puts (“Financing Puts”) are expected to become exercisable on March 24, 2028, and are not exercisable prior to that date. If exercised, the Company would be required to pay US$247.1 million, plus accrued and unpaid interest related to the 2022 Secured Note, and US$164.8 million, plus accrued and unpaid interest related to the 2023 Secured Note. The Company has the option to settle amounts due on exercise of the Financing Puts through the issuance of common shares, subject to ownership limitations, or in cash. The ultimate form of settlement will depend on the Company’s share price, capital structure, and the noteholder’s shareholdings at the date of settlement. As the Financing Puts are not exercisable until March 2028, the Company expects the Financing Puts will become exercisable at that time and no determination regarding the settlement method has been made as at June 30, 2026.
The following table details the Company’s expected remaining contractual cash flow requirements for its financial liabilities on repayment or maturity periods. The amounts presented are based on the contractual undiscounted cash flows and may not agree with the carrying amounts in the condensed consolidated interim statements of financial position.
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| ($000s) | Less than 1 year | 1-3 years | 3-5 years | Greater than 5 years | Total |
| 2022 Secured Note including interest | 20,762 | | 41,523 | | 41,523 | | 237,799 | | 341,607 | |
| 2023 Secured Note including interest | 13,841 | | 27,682 | | 27,682 | | 150,260 | | 219,465 | |
| Lease obligation | 454 | | 1,409 | | 618 | | 396 | | 2,877 | |
| 35,057 | | 70,614 | | 69,823 | | 388,455 | | 563,949 | |
Market Risk
(a) Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that the future cash flows of a financial instrument or its fair value will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The secured note liabilities (Note 9) bear interest at a fixed rate of 6.5% per annum. The Company’s current policy is to invest excess cash in Canadian
bank guaranteed notes (short-term deposits). The short-term deposits can be cashed in at any time and can be reinvested if interest rates rise.
(b) Foreign Currency Risk
The Company’s functional currency is the Canadian dollar and major purchases are transacted in Canadian and US dollars. The secured note liabilities and the related interest payments are denominated in US dollars. The Company has the option to pay the interest either in cash or in shares. The Company also funds certain operations, exploration and administrative expenses in the United States on a cash call basis using US dollar cash on hand or converted from its Canadian dollar cash. Management believes the foreign exchange risk derived from currency conversions is not significant to its operations and has not entered into any foreign exchange hedges. As at June 30, 2026, the Company had cash and cash equivalents, long-term investments, reclamation deposits, gold stream asset, accounts payable and secured notes that are in US dollars.
(c) Investment Risk
The Company has investments in other publicly listed exploration companies, including an equity investment in Paramount, which are classified as investments in marketable securities. These shares were received primarily as option payments in connection with certain exploration properties the Company owns or has sold. In addition, the Company holds $8.0 million in a gold exchange-traded receipt, which is also recorded as an investment in marketable securities on the condensed consolidated interim statements of financial position. These investments are subject to a high degree of risk due to their nature; however, the related carrying amounts are not considered significant to the Company.

Prior to maturity, the 2022 Secured Note and the 2023 Secured Note bear interest at 6.5% per annum, or US$14.6 million and US$9.8 million per annum, respectively. Interest is payable quarterly in arrears. The Company can elect to satisfy interest payments in cash or by delivering common shares, subject to certain limitations described in Note 9. To date, the Company has elected to deliver common shares.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
This management’s discussion and analysis (“MD&A”) of Seabridge Gold Inc. (“Seabridge” or the “Company”) and its subsidiary companies, dated August 13, 2026, is intended to supplement and complement the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements and related notes as at and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026. It should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited annual consolidated financial statements and annual management’s discussion and analysis for the year ended December 31, 2025, and the 2025 Annual Information Form filed on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca. Other corporate documents are also available on SEDAR+ and EDGAR, as well as the Company’s website www.seabridgegold.com. This MD&A contains forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties, as discussed in the "Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" in this MD&A. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. As the Company has no operating projects at this time, its ability to carry out its business plan rests with its ability to sell interests in projects or to secure equity and other financings. All dollar figures are in Canadian dollars unless otherwise stated. Figures in some tables may not add due to rounding.
The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, and the comparative periods have been prepared by the Company in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”).
COMPANY OVERVIEW
Seabridge Gold Inc. is engaged in acquiring, exploring, and advancing mineral properties, with an emphasis on gold resources, located in Canada and the United States of America. The Company’s objective is to provide its shareholders with exceptional leverage to rising gold prices, while also offering additional exposure to copper through the significant copper resources it has acquired and discovered.
The Company’s strategy is to increase its mineral resources through exploration, rather than to develop and operate mines on its own. The Company intends to sell projects or participate in joint ventures with major mining companies as projects advance toward production. Since inception in 1999, Seabridge has acquired interests in numerous gold projects situated in North America with its principal project being the KSM property located in British Columbia. The KSM Project contains one of the world’s largest endowments of gold and copper mineral reserves and mineral resources. The Company also holds a 100% interest in the Bronson Corridor Project (formerly known as Iskut Project) in British Columbia, the 3 Aces Project in Yukon, and the Snowstorm Project in Nevada. Although focused on gold exploration, the Company has made significant copper discoveries, in particular, at KSM and Bronson Corridor.
Seabridge’s common shares trade in Canada on the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX") under the symbol “SEA” and in the United States on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “SA”.
SECOND QUARTER 2026 HIGHLIGHTS
•The Province of British Columbia designated Seabridge’s KSM Project as a provincial priority project. Being included on the priority project list gives KSM access to dedicated provincial permitting coordination and assistance. This support is anticipated to improve the efficiency of future permitting processes for the Project.
•Commenced an aggressive work season at the KSM project with mobilization and work commencing on all planned scopes, including construction of the Upper Treaty Creek Access Road, drilling in the Treaty and Mitchell Valleys and completion by BC Hydro of the Treaty Creek Terminal ("TCT"). The KSM site is fully activated and staffed across five camps to support these site works and extensive data collection for the planned feasibility study.
•Continued preparation for the initiation of a feasibility study on the KSM Project. Discussions with principal consultants, including the feasibility study lead, focused on fully defining work scopes, underlying technical assumptions, battery limits and cost estimates. In addition, an extensive metallurgical test program focused on, among other matters, optimizing grind size and recovery was advanced. Completion of a feasibility study is targeted for the second half of 2027.
•KSM Mining Inc. ("KSMCo") received a letter from the Ministry of Mining and Critical Minerals of British Columbia (the "Mines Ministry") advising that a decision to issue permit amendments for the construction and operation of the Mitchell Treaty Tunnels ("MTT") over their full length has been delayed. The Company continues to engage with the Province in regards to this matter.
•The Supreme Court of British Columbia ("the Court") issued its decision on two petitions challenging the July 24, 2024 determination (the "SSD") by the BC Environmental Assessment Office ("EAO") that Seabridge’s KSM project was substantially started. The Court found that the EAO had not satisfied its duty to consult the Tsetsaut Skii km Lax Ha (“TSKLH”) with respect to the SSD. The Court has ruled that the EAO must provide a period of 90-days, which commenced on June 30, 2026, for TSKLH to provide written submissions on whether the project was substantially started, after which the EAO must reconsider the SSD. The Court also dismissed the second petition that was filed by SkeenaWild Conservation Trust (“SCT”), but the parties disagree on whether the Court made a determination as to the reasonableness of the SSD, and are seeking clarification from the Court as to its ruling on the reasonableness arguments made by SCT and the scope of the consultation of TSKLH required under the ruling. TSKLH and SCT have filed notices of appeal to preserve their rights of appeal until the Court provides clarification on these issues and the Company and the Crown have filed cross appeals to preserve their rights in case the appeals proceed.
•Seabridge was awarded the Resource and Mining Excellence Award at the 2026 Community and Business Awards in Smithers, British Columbia. This award recognizes a business, organization, or individual that has made a significant contribution to the resource and mining sector in the region through innovation, sustainability, and leadership.
•Upon approval by the shareholders of Seabridge, the Company completed the spin-out of Valor Gold to Seabridge shareholders. Valor Gold, a separately listed issuer on the TSX, owns a 100% interest in the Courageous Lake gold project located in the Northwest Territories, Canada, previously owned by Seabridge. Seabridge distributed all 55 million shares of Valor Gold (the "Valor Shares") to its shareholders based on a ratio of one Valor share for every 1.957 Seabridge shares held. Valor commenced trading on the TSX under the symbol “VGC” on June 5, 2026
•Seabridge reported a maiden Mineral Resource estimate for its Bronson Corridor project in B.C.’s Golden-Triangle. Inferred Mineral Resources total 9.2 million ounces of gold, 28.3 million ounces of silver and 923 million pounds of copper (605.7 million tonnes at 0.47 g/t gold, 0.07% copper and 1.5 g/t silver)1. The Mineral Resource remains open in several directions.
•On July 20, 2026, the Company entered into an unsecured non-revolving loan agreement with a strategic investor providing for a loan facility of up to US$100 million. The facility bears interest at 7% per annum, compounded monthly, is available through December 31, 2026 and may be used to fund the Company’s working capital requirements and capital expenditures related to the KSM Project. Company may elect to settle all or a portion of the principal and accrued interest in cash, common shares, or a combination thereof.
•In June, Seabridge released its 2025 Sustainability Report, providing a comprehensive review of the Company's environmental, social, and governance ("ESG") performance across its North American portfolio of gold and copper projects.
[1] The mineral resource estimate was prepared by Henry Kim, P.Geo., an independent qualified person, with an effective date of April 8, 2026.
OUTLOOK
The Company continues its pursuit of a joint venture agreement on the KSM Project with a senior mining company partner that has the technical, financial, and social capabilities to support development of the Project. The KSM Project includes multiple deposits and development scenarios that provide a joint venture partner flexibility in the design of the Project.
Seabridge is completing significant works in 2026 to advance the KSM Project. Planned activities include:
•Initiation of a feasibility study (“FS”) to advance technical workstreams, engineering designs and cost estimates with targeted completion in the second half of 2027.
•The FS works include the most significant geotechnical program completed at the site, including drilling programs in the Treaty and Mitchell valleys, along the tailings management facility, and within the west borrow pit.
•The program anticipates completion of 125 drill holes and 175 test pits. Certain holes will provide geotechnical data and also can be utilized for further metallurgical testwork.
•Completion of significant road construction of up to 13 kilometers of Upper Treaty Creek Access Road (“UTCAR”) to provide access to the site of the MTT saddle portal access. 5.5 kilometers of the Coulter Creek Access Road (“CCAR”) that was planned to advance access to the Mitchell Valley has been deferred to reduce complexity.
•BC Hydro is completing work on the TCT, a key component of the system required to provide power from the Northwest Transmission Line ("NTL”) for use during construction and operations.
•Environmental monitoring and technical studies covering activities required to prepare for the FS, and future permitting applications.
•Maintaining site camps, site operations, permits and social outreach programs, including Indigenous partner engagements.
At the Bronson Corridor Project, Seabridge's exploration program is better defining new targets on the property, with a focus on upgrading surface geochemistry and geological mapping on untested and underexplored targets on the property. Additional evaluation of the historical core will be undertaken to better understand the mineral distribution and relationship to intrusive centers.
Executing this more limited program has also resulted in a pause of the voluntary reclamation program at the Johnny Mountain Mine.
Limited exploration works are being completed at our 3 Aces and Snowstorm Projects. On our newly acquired Michigan Project, the focus in 2026 is expanding geochemical data over the property to identify and refine targets for future drilling.
The Company has $53.6 million in working capital at the end of the second quarter and, subsequent to quarter end, secured a loan facility for up to US$100 million to provide funding certainty to complete planned works.
DISCUSSION OF PROJECTS
KSM Project
The KSM Project is located in northwest British Columbia, Canada, in a region generally known as the “Golden Triangle”. The Golden Triangle includes many operating mines and development and exploration projects. KSM is one of the world's largest undeveloped gold and copper projects as measured by mineral reserves and mineral resources. The KSM Project received its environmental assessment approvals from the federal, provincial and Nisga’a Lisims governments in 2014, relating to the mining and processing of 2.3 billion tonnes of ore from four of the KSM mineral deposits. The SSD made in July, 2024 initially made these
environmental assessment approvals no longer subject to expiry; however, the Court has ordered the SSD to be reconsidered after consultation with the TSKLH. After reconsideration, if the EAO determines for a second time that the KSM Project is substantially started, the environmental assessment approvals will no longer be subject to expiry.
The Province has designated Seabridge's KSM Project as a provincial priority project. The designation is designed to advance strategic, job-creating developments across British Columbia. Inclusion on the priority project list provides KSM with dedicated provincial permitting coordination and support, which is expected to streamline and expedite additional permits for the Project.
Recognition of KSM as a provincial priority project reflects the quality of the work completed to date and the value KSM represents for British Columbia and Canada. Dedicated permitting efforts support the significant work invested by Seabridge, our First Nation partners, local communities and government agencies.
SITE ACTIVITIES AND DEVELOPMENT
Consistent with seasonal conditions, site activities ramped up significantly during Q2 2026 with mobilization of project management, contractors and support staff to initiate works across all planned scopes. All three owned camp locations and two third-party locations being used to support the field season were activated and operational. A strong focus on safety and environmental compliance was maintained throughout the quarter.
Upper Treaty Creek Access Road (“UTCAR”): Construction of UTCAR commenced during the quarter. The UTCAR is being constructed under a joint venture between the Treaty Creek Limited Partnership, owned by the Nisga'a and Tahltan Nations, and the Lemare Group. As at June 30, 2026, pioneering work was completed along 3.3 kilometres of the 13 kilometre route, with road construction completed along the first 1.8 kilometres. The project remained on budget. Pioneering activities are on track; however, subgrade construction has been impacted by access to sufficient suitable road subgrade material. This issue is not expected to impact the overall schedule, as suitable material will be reached at approximately the 6 kilometre mark, at which point subgrade construction will catch up with pioneering activities.
Treaty Creek Terminal: Work on BC Hydro's Treaty Creek Terminal ("TCT") also commenced during the quarter. BC Hydro contractors completed works on controls, communications and testing while also advancing on-site finishing of the yard and associated buildings. The TCT will be completed by the end of the field season.
The extensive site investigation program commenced in June after earlier activities established drill pad locations, staging areas and access points. Drill programs are being conducted within both the Mitchell and Treaty Valleys, focused on geotechnical information for the feasibility study. As at June 30, 2026, 24% of the planned holes were completed. Also late in the quarter, test pitting within the footprint of the tailings management facility commenced with the establishment of access to the planned locations.
With the deferral of the construction of the Coulter Creek Access Road, the decision has been made to add drilling along the planned route to provide improved engineering information with the objective to reduce cost and risk of construction.
During the current quarter, the KSM Project was recognized with the Resource and Mining Excellence Award at the 2026 Community and Business Awards in Smithers, British Columbia. This award recognizes a business, organization, or individual that has made a significant contribution to the resource and mining sector in the region through innovation, sustainability, and leadership.
During the second quarter, the Province of British Columbia designated Seabridge’s KSM Project as a provincial priority project. The designation is designed to advance strategic, job‑creating developments across British Columbia. The inclusion on the priority project list provides KSM with dedicated provincial permitting coordination and support, which is expected to streamline and expedite permitting timelines for future required permits for the Project. The Province’s decision reflects KSM’s scale, long‑term economic potential, and alignment with the objectives of the Look West strategy, which focuses on delivering major projects, strengthening economic security, and supporting the responsible development of British Columbia’s natural resources.
FS ACTIVITIES
During Q2 2026, the technical service team focused on working with various consultants to develop a master schedule for the initiation of, and the execution and completion of the feasibility study. To support this work and align scopes various technical sessions were held to better define current information and planning assumptions related to mine and process design and various infrastructure components.
Metallurgical test work in support of the FS was fully in process through the second quarter. Work continues across a number of labs on composites and other samples to optimize grind size and flowsheet layouts. Work to date has improved the Company’s confidence that the FS process design can be improved relative to that which was utilized in the 2022 pre-feasibility study.

1.In 2022, the Company entered into a Facilities Agreement with British Columbia Hydro and Power Authority ("BC Hydro") covering the design and construction of a switching station by BC Hydro to supply construction phase hydro-sourced electricity to the KSM Project. Pursuant to signing the Facilities Agreement and amendments thereto, as at June 30, 2026, the Company has completed all $161.1 million in contracted payments. Of the $161.1 million, $86.2 million was the cost to complete the construction, and $74.7 million was placed on deposit as security for BC Hydro's system reinforcement expenditures that are required to make the power available.
2.During the six months ended June 30, 2026, construction in progress additions at KSM included $16.8 million of capitalized borrowing costs (six months ended June 30, 2025 - $17.2 million). Costs capitalized during the comparative period were net of $0.5 million of interest income earned on temporary investments of the borrowed funds.
During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company incurred $35.7 million in operating expenditures that were capitalized.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
In 2014, the KSM Project received its environmental assessment approvals from the federal, provincial and Nisga’a Lisims governments, relating to the mining and processing of 2.3 billion tonnes of ore from four of
the KSM mineral deposits. After the Court ordered reconsideration of the SSD, if the EAO concludes for a second time that the KSM Project is substantially started, these environmental assessment approvals will not be subject to expiry. In addition to its environmental approvals, the Company currently holds significant federal and provincial permits related to the project, which allow for exploration, drilling activities, as well as early works programs, such as road and camp construction. Additional permits will still need to be obtained prior to the project going into full production.
The design of the KSM Project as approved in our Environmental Assessment Certificate (“EAC”), includes the MTT, two 22 km long parallel tunnels that connect the mine sites to the milling and processing area. The Company currently holds a number of authorizations required for the MTT, including a Mines Act permit M-245 (“M-245”), which allows excavation from each of the three portal locations to the first crosscut, located 300 metres from each portal, and a License of Occupation (“LoO”) for the MTT route. The LoO provides KSMCo with the right to occupy the area in which it intends to construct and operate the MTT for the purposes of constructing and operating the MTT. The Chief Gold Commissioner has also issued a Conditional Mineral Reserve (“CMR”) that applies to the MTT route. The Company has applied for an amendment to its M-245 to authorize the construction and operation of the MTT over its full length. Approval of this amendment has been delayed by the Mines Ministry citing a legal action commenced challenging whether the CMR applies to third-party-owned mineral claims within the area of the CMR. See Litigation section below for further details. Once the MTT is constructed, the Company plans to convert the LoO into a statutory right-of-way.
UPDATED MINERAL RESOURCE ESTIMATE
During the first quarter of 2026, an updated Mineral Resource estimate for the KSM Project was announced (see News Release dated March 31, 2026). Based on this mineral resource update, the KSM Project hosts Measured and Indicated Mineral Resources totaling 95.5 million ounces of gold, 21 billion pounds of copper, 460 million ounces of silver and 837 million pounds of molybdenum (6.3 billion tonnes grading 0.48 g/t gold, 0.15% copper, 2.3 g/t silver and 61ppm molybdenum). In addition, Inferred Mineral Resources total 84 million ounces of gold, 43 billion pounds of copper, 570 million ounces of silver and 606 million pounds of molybdenum (8.5 billion tonnes grading 0.31 g/t gold. 0.23% copper, 2.1 g/t silver and 32.5 ppm molybdenum).2
2022 PRELIMINARY FEASIBILITY STUDY AND PRELIMINARY ECONOMIC ASSESSMENT
In 2022, the Company completed a preliminary feasibility study (“2022 PFS”), which included a preliminary economic assessment (“2022 PEA”)3. A copy of the Technical Report setting forth the details of the 2022 PFS and the 2022 PEA, including the underlying assumptions and projections, can be viewed on the Company’s website (www.seabridgegold.com) by selecting “KSM” from the dropdown “Projects” tab.
The 2022 PFS envisages an open-pit mine operation that is scheduled to operate for 33 years. Ore delivery to the mill increases from an initial 130,000 tpd to 195,000 tpd in Year 3. Average life of mine strip ratio is projected to be approximately 1:1. Over the entire 33-year mine life, ore would be fed to a flotation and gold extraction mill. The flotation plant is designed to produce a gold/copper/silver concentrate for transport by truck to a nearby seaport at Stewart, B.C. for shipment to Pacific Rim smelters. Metallurgical projections supported by extensive metallurgical testing, project a copper concentrate with an average copper grade of 24% and a high gold (64 g/t) and silver (177g/t) content, making it readily saleable. A separate molybdenum concentrate and gold-silver doré would also be produced at the KSM processing facility.
Mineral Reserves for the KSM Project are based on open pit mining of the Mitchell, East Mitchell and Sulphurets deposits. Waste to ore cut-offs were determined using a net smelter return (“NSR”) for each block in the model. NSR is calculated using prices and process recoveries for each metal, accounting for all off-site losses, transportation, smelting and refining charges. Metal prices of US$1,300 per ounce gold, US$3.00 per pound copper, US$20 per ounce silver and US$9.70 per pound molybdenum and a foreign exchange rate of 0.79 US dollar per Canadian dollar have been used in the NSR calculations.
Total Proven and Probable Mineral Reserves for the KSM Project are 47.3 million ounces of gold, 7,320 million pounds of copper, 160 million ounces of silver and 385 million pounds of molybdenum (2,292 million tonnes grading 0.64 g/t Au, 0.14% Cu, 2.2 g/t Ag and 76 ppm Mo).

1.On a by-product basis
The results of the 2022 PEA are a stand-alone mine plan that was undertaken to evaluate a potential future expansion of the KSM mine to the copper-rich Iron Cap and Kerr deposits after the 2022 PFS mine plan has been completed. The 2022 PEA is primarily an underground block cave mining operation supplemented with a small open pit and is planned to operate for an additional 39 years with a peak mill feed production of 170,000 t/d. The 2022 PEA demonstrates that KSMCo is a potential multigenerational mining project with the flexibility to vary the metal output.
LITIGATION RELATED TO THE KSM PROJECT
KSM Project SSD
On November 22, 2024, the TSKLH filed a petition against the Province seeking judicial review of the SSD for the KSM Project. TSKLH sought a declaration that the EAO failed to fulfill its duty to consult TSKLH in respect of the SSD and an order quashing the SSD on the basis that the EAO failed to fulfill its duty to consult, the EAO failed to discharge its duty of procedural fairness and/or that the SSD was unreasonable. On November 29, 2024, the SkeenaWild Conservation Trust (“SCT”) and Southeast Alaska Indigenous Transboundary Commission (“SEITC”) filed a second petition against the EAO and KSMCo, also seeking an order quashing the SSD on the basis that the SSD was unreasonable. During the third quarter of 2025, SEITC, withdrew from the proceedings.
On June 8, 2026, the Supreme Court of British Columbia (the "Court") issued its decision on these two petitions. The Court found that the EAO had not satisfied its duty to consult TSKLH with respect to the SSD. The Court has ruled that the EAO must provide a period of 90-days from June 30, 2026, for TSKLH to provide written submissions on whether the project was substantially started, after which the EAO must reconsider the SSD. The Court also dismissed the second petition that was filed by SCT, although the parties disagree as to whether the Court made a determination as to the reasonableness of the SSD. The parties to the legal action are seeking clarification from the Court as to its ruling on the reasonableness arguments made by SCT and the scope of the consultation of TSKLH required under the ruling. TSKLH and SCT have filed notices of appeal to preserve their rights of appeal until the Court provides clarification on these issues and the Company and the Crown have filed cross appeals to preserve their rights in case the appeals proceed.
The KSM Project environmental assessment certificate (“EAC”) is unaffected by the Petitions or the Court decision. However, the EAC expires unless the KSM Project was substantially started as of July 29, 2026. A substantially started determination for the KSM Project can be made well after the July 29, 2026 date; in respect of other projects a substantially started determination has been made several months after the relevant expiry date.
Since the EAO has given TSKLH until September 28, 2026, to make written submissions, the EAO will give the Company an opportunity to respond to those submissions and the EAO will need a reasonable period of time after receiving those submissions to consider them, to reconsider their original decision and prepare a new decision; the Company expects the EAO’s reconsidered decision in Q4 2026. The EAO has also indicated that it will receive submissions from the Company concerning the KSM Project for the period after the original SSD up to July 29, 2026 and will allow other interested parties, including TSKLH, to comment on the new information. It appears to the Company as though the EAO is planning to make a new substantially started determination as of July 29, 2026 based on all information provided to it by the Company and through consultation with Indigenous peoples. The Company intends to submit information regarding the additional work completed at the KSM Project after the work considered in the initial SSD to support a stronger decision. During the consultation and reconsideration process(es), the EAC has not expired; it only expires if the EAO’s ultimate determination is that the KSM Project was not substantially started on or before July 29, 2026. The EAO previously decided the KSM Project was substantially started in July, 2024.
If the Company is unsuccessful in retaining its SSD after the processes described above, the EAC will expire. Based on the merits of the Company’s original application and the EAO’s thorough review and consultation process in respect of it, the Court ruling and the additional work completed on the KSM Project not considered in the initial SSD, management considers that the probability of KSMCo not retaining the EAC is remote.
Tudor Gold Litigation and MTT Authorizations
In July 2023, Tudor Gold Corp. (“Tudor”) requested the cancellation of KSMCo's LoO and Mines Act permit. Tudor claimed that the B.C. government did not have the authority to issue these and that they would destroy the value of Tudor's claims. The Mines Act permit authorizes limited MTT construction activities, including activities on claims held by Tudor, along the route of the MTT, and the LoO authorizes KSMCo to occupy the area of the MTT for construction and operation of the MTT, including on mineral claims held by Tudor. These
authorizations were granted after a thorough regulatory process involving First Nations and Tudor's existing and previous joint venture partners.
In September 2023, the Company submitted a dismissal request for Tudor’s application to the Mines Ministry and the Ministry of Forests. In October 2023, Mines Ministry affirmed the Province’s authority to grant the LoO and the Mines Act permit. On November 17, 2023, the B.C. Ministry of Water, Land, and Resource Stewardship (“WLRS”) confirmed that the LoO was in good standing and there is no justification for canceling it.
In early 2024, the Mines Ministry clarified that the CMR prohibits interference with the MTT by any free miner, including Tudor. In several letters to the Chief Gold Commissioner (“CGC”) between December 2024 and April 2025, Tudor made multiple submissions asking the CGC to decide the dispute between Tudor and KSMCo and to cancel the CMR. In May 2025, the CGC determined that she did not have jurisdiction to decide the dispute, refused to cancel the CMR and included a statement in her determination that the CMR applied to Tudor. On July 14, 2025, Tudor filed a Notice of Appeal in Court against the CGC and KSMCo, appealing the CGC’s decision not to decide the dispute and the CGC’s statement that the CMR applies to Tudor. On March 17, 2026, after conceding that the CGC’s decision was correct, Tudor abandoned this appeal.
Tudor filed a Notice of Civil Claim in the Court against the Province, seeking a ruling that the CMR does not apply to it, alleging misrepresentation by the Mines Ministry concerning Tudor’s rights as a mineral claims holder, asserting the CMR amounts to an expropriation by the Province of Tudor’s mineral claims, and asserting that the Province does not have the authority to grant Seabridge rights to use areas within Tudor’s mineral claims, amongst other things. Tudor subsequently filed a second Petition (the “LoO Petition”) against WLRS and KSMCo seeking judicial review of the September 2024 WLRS decision to grant the renewed 2024 LoO across portions of the Treaty Creek Property.
In April 2026, the Province filed its response to the Notice of Civil Claim brought against the Province by Tudor. In its response, the Province affirms its right under provincial legislation to grant the CMR and the LoO. The Province’s response notes that a mineral claim does not confer property rights; ownership of minerals requires further authorizations and authorized work by a mineral claims holder. The Province’s response further argues that Tudor knew that the CMR, LoO and Mines Act permit were in place when Tudor acquired its interest in its claims and that Tudor should have prudently investigated the implications of this fact. Finally, the Province notes that the Civil Claim by Tudor is statute-barred under the Limitations Act, any right of action having expired. The Company is applying to become a party to this Civil Claim in order to defend its interests.
The Province delivered its records in respect its decision on the LoO Petition in April 2026. The Province has not delivered its Response to the Petition as of July 29, 2026. In July 2026, Seabridge delivered its Response to Petition and the Province’s Affidavit, addressing Tudor’s claims in the LoO Petition.
On April 10, 2026, the Company received a letter from the Mines Ministry advising that the decision to issue permit amendments for the construction and operation of the MTT over their full length was being delayed. The decision maker reviewing the permit amendment application referenced the Civil Claim commenced by Tudor challenging whether the CMR applies to Tudor's mineral claims. The Mines Ministry had previously confirmed on multiple occasions in writing that the CMR applies to Tudor's mineral claims. The decision-maker has advised the Company that he is not going to make a decision on its permit amendment application until this legal issue relating to the application of the CMR is resolved. There are no plans to commence construction of the MTT until a Final Feasibility Study has been completed.
KSMCo and the Company will continue to vigorously defend all challenges to its rights, licenses and permits.
Bronson Corridor Project
Bronson Corridor Project is an exploration property 40 kilometers from our KSM project in northwest British Columbia, Canada. Bronson Corridor has many features similar to KSM and it represents an opportunity to benefit from what we have learned at KSM to find one or more large gold-copper porphyry deposits in the highly prospective Golden Triangle region.
In 2023, the Company conducted a 17-drill hole, 19,500 metre drilling program at Bronson Corridor, integrating historical drilling, geochemistry and geophysical surveying programs. The work program was designed to test deeper copper-gold porphyry systems focused on the Bronson Slope mineral resource. Results of the 2023 program expanded the broad zones of sericite-pyrite-carbonate alteration associated with the Bronson Slope intermediate epithermal deposit. In addition, the first drill program on the Snip North target in 2023 found a new porphyry mineral center. The discovery consists of the preserved upper parts of a copper-gold porphyry, with zonation from an upper intermediate sulfidation epithermal zone into intense potassicly altered porphyry system.
Regional geophysical surveys and continuous surface geology work on the property point to a distinct structural feature that connects the Quartz Rise, Bronson Slope and Snip North targets. All the prospective copper-gold intrusions recognized on the property fall along this regional trend, and this observation has led us to envision a cluster of copper-gold deposits. The program in 2023 successfully tested the regional controls interpreted for the property, putting context to the alignment of Quartz Rise, Bronson Slope and Snip North.
In 2024, the Company expanded the large, intense hydrothermal system at Snip North that remains open down dip to the west and northwest. Results from the 2024 drill program established a continuous and extensive mineral system hosted in clastic and volcanoclastic wall rock, however, the source intrusion was never identified. Conclusions from the 2024 program indicated that a resource could be defined at Snip North and that it would provide valuable insights to apply across the property.
Drilling in 2025 at the Bronson Corridor Project was initiated at regular spacing to provide data to support a Mineral Resource estimation. The holes intersected wide intervals of wall rock hosted porphyry-style mineralization as well as higher level epithermal-style mineralization. The exploration program completed 23,855 metre of drilling in 24 drill holes with the goal of announcing a maiden copper-gold Mineral Resource at the Snip North target in 2026. At the close of 2025, it was determined that sufficient drilling was completed to proceed with a Mineral Resource estimation, although the limits of the system and the source intrusion were not defined.
Early in the second quarter of 2026, Seabridge published its inaugural Mineral Resource estimate for the Snip North Target, the second deposit discovered at the Bronson Corridor project. The maiden Inferred Mineral Resource totals 9.2 million ounces of gold, 28.3 million ounces of silver and 923 million pounds of copper (605.7 million tonnes grading 0.47 g/T gold, 0.07% copper and 1.5 g/T silver). Details of this Mineral Resource estimate, including the underlying assumptions, are set forth in the Company’s news release of April 15, 2026 which can be viewed on the Company’s website (www.seabridgegold.com) by selecting “Bronson Corridor” from the dropdown “Projects” tab and looking under “Project Updates”. The resource remains open in several directions.

During the second quarter of 2026, exploration work concentrated on soil and rock sampling in conjunction with geological mapping. The goal of this effort is to improve the historical geochemical data set using systematic sample distribution and modern analytical techniques that better detect porphyry mineral systems.
In conjunction with the surface sampling program, historical drill core across the Bronson Corridor is being reviewed and prepared in advance of an extensive core scanning effort. This part of the program will commence in the third quarter, designed to improve alteration mineralogy, refine structural models and develop thermal patterns in the altered rocks. Gathering this additional data from historical drill core is expected to direct future drilling of the Snip North and Bronson Slope targets.
The Company spent $3.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2026 related to Bronson Corridor.
In addition to exploration work at Bronson Corridor, the Company spent $0.3 million in six months ended June 30, 2026 on reclamation and closure activities at the Johnny Mountain mine site.
3 Aces Project
3 Aces was acquired by Seabridge in March 2020. It consists of 1,734 claims covering 357 km² (35,700 ha) located in a road accessible part of southeastern Yukon. Historical work developed broad areas of gold-in-soil extending more than 20 kilometers and past drilling encountered extensive gold. We believe the characteristics of the 3 Aces project are indicative of an orogenic gold project consistent in formation with other orogenic gold deposits in the vicinity and around the world.
In 2024, at the 3 Aces Project, the Company completed an exploration program, including 7,600 metres of drilling to evaluate and prioritize resource expansion targets across the project. An updated 3-dimensional model was built that brought together results from the drilling and historical drill programs to indicate the likelihood of continuous mineralization between previously isolated historical deposits in the Central Core Area ("CCA"). The focus in 2025 was to extend known geological features that host gold in the CCA into covered areas. The Company is pursuing an exploration model that predicts gold is localized on second-order folds along the contact of phyllite and sandstone.
3 Aces has concentrated on compiling the exploration results during the first and second quarters of 2026. This effort is integrating new drilling, extensive till and rock sampling as well as external research into a comprehensive understanding, particularly across covered areas. Expanding the potential size of the mineral system around the identified zones continues to be our focus.
The Company spent $0.7 million in six months ended June 30, 2026 related to 3 Aces.
Snowstorm Project
Snowstorm is located 15 kilometres north of the Turquoise Ridge mine on a blind extension of the prolific Getchell Trend in Nevada, U.S.A.
At Snowstorm, from 2022 through 2024, the Company evaluated the results of the previous drilling programs to understand the geology encountered and its relationship to host prospective gold mineralization. Additional research was conducted to evaluate new technologies that could assist in targeting gold concentrations. Several indirect targeting systems were under review. Access and permit conditions were reviewed for initiating more extensive exploration, including drilling on the Goldstorm target.
In 2025, exploration at Snowstorm continued the evaluation of a Getchell-style gold deposit and deployment of a new technology for the discovery of Getchell-style mineralization at Snowstorm. The ANT survey was completed during the first quarter of 2025 and integrated into the data set. This led to a comprehensive structural model on the property that was incorporated into an Artificial Intelligence ("AI") assisted targeting evaluation.
Ultimately, the AI-assisted targeting identified gaps in geochemistry and age constraints on the prospective host stratigraphy. During the second quarter of this year, surface sampling was undertaken utilizing several material types to refine the surface expression of structures defined in our comprehensive model. Samples from historical drilling were also submitted for additional geochemical testing and clay mineralogy evaluations. Several large drill hole samples were collected and submitted for stratigraphic age determination. Results from these samples are expected in the third quarter. New data will then be integrated into the AI-assisted targeting models to improve drill targeting.
The Company spent $0.9 million in six months ended June 30, 2026 related to Snowstorm.
Courageous Lake Project
In the second quarter of 2026, Seabridge shareholders approved its plan to spin out its wholly owned subsidiary, Valor Gold Corp,. (“Valor”) which owns 100% of the Courageous Lake Gold Project, located in Canada's Northwest Territories. Seabridge distributed all 55 million shares of Valor to its shareholders based on a ratio of one Valor share for every 1.957 Seabridge shares held. Valor commenced trading on the TSX under the symbol “VGC” on June 5, 2026.
Valor is focused on advancing Courageous Lake through exploration, engineering and permitting. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, Seabridge expended $9.7 million related to the spin-out, including $5.1 million to purchase shares under the arrangement agreement.
Seabridge has no residual ownership interest in Valor and takes no role in its management or governance, but did purchase a gold stream on future production. As a result of the spin-out, the Company derecognized the net assets held for distribution of $63.7 million and recognized a fair value of $11.7 million at June 30, 2026 related to the gold stream.
MINERAL INTERESTS
During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company capitalized an aggregate of $42.4 million (2025 - $28.4 million) expenditures attributed to mineral interests. The breakdown of the mineral interest expenditures by project is illustrated in the following table:

During the current quarter, the Company recorded net income of $$117.5 million, or $1.09 and $1.08 per share on a basic and diluted basis, respectively. During the comparative period of 2025, the Company recorded net income of $12.3 million, or $0.12 per share, on both a basic and diluted basis.
During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company recorded net income of $110.9 million, or $1.03 per share on a basic and diluted basis. During the comparative period of 2025, the Company recorded net income of $22.9 million, or $0.23 per share, on both a basic and diluted basis.
Gain on distribution of mineral properties
The increase in net income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 was primarily attributable to the $151.7 million gain recognized on the distribution of the Courageous Lake Project to Valor pursuant to the completed plan of arrangement. The gain resulted from the difference between the fair value of the distribution of $211.8 million and the carrying value of the Courageous Lake mineral interests of $83.7 million, the fair value of the gold stream of $13.6 million, less the reversal of the related deferred tax liability of $20.0 million.
Remeasurement gain (loss) on secured note liabilities through profit and loss
During the three months ended June 30, 2026, the gain recognized on the remeasurement of secured note liabilities was mainly due to an increase in discount rates, the payment of interest, and a decrease in metal prices, partially offset by the impact of valuing the notes at reporting periods closer to maturity.
During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the gain recognized on the remeasurement of secured note liabilities was mainly due to an increase in discount rates and the payment of interest, partially offset by an increase in metal prices and the impact of valuing the notes at reporting periods closer to maturity.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, the loss recognized on the remeasurement of secured note liabilities was mainly the net result of losses due to an increase in metal prices and the impact of valuing the notes at reporting periods closer to maturity, partially offset by the gain due to a slight increase in discount rates and payment of interest.
Corporate and administrative expenses
Corporate and administrative expenses are outlined below:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| (in thousands of Canadian dollars) | Three months ended June 30, | Six months ended June 30, |
| 2026 | 2025 | 2026 | 2025 |
| Employee compensation | 1,905 | | 1,692 | | 3,903 | | 3,415 | |
| Stock-based compensation | 2,082 | | 1,409 | | 4,183 | | 2,471 | |
| Professional fees | 446 | | 752 | | 1,357 | | 1,061 | |
| Other general and administrative | 1,130 | | 1,102 | | 2,265 | | 2,362 | |
| Expenses related to assets held for distribution | 3,774 | | - | | 4,374 | | - | |
| 9,337 | | 4,955 | | 16,082 | | 9,309 | |
Total Corporate and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2026, were $9.3 million compared to $5.0 million in the prior-year period. The increase was mainly due to $3.8 million of costs related to the distribution of Courageous Lake assets to Valor shareholders, higher employee and stock-based compensation, partially offset by lower professional fees.
Total Corporate and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2026, were $16.1 million compared to $9.3 million in the prior-year period. The increase was mainly due to $4.4 million of costs related to the distribution of Courageous Lake assets to Valor shareholders, higher stock-based compensation, increased professional fees and higher employee compensation.
During the six months ended June 30, 2026, stock-based compensation expense related to restricted share units (“RSUs”) and deferred share units (“DSUs”) increased by $1.7 million, when compared to the same periods in 2025. The increase was primarily due to higher numbers of outstanding RSUs and DSUs in 2026 compared to 2025 (940,285 vs 807,802), and higher fair value at the December 2025 grant date compared to fair value at the December 2024 and 2023 grant dates.
As at June 30, 2026, 853,734 RSUs and 86,551 DSUs were outstanding.
During Q1 of 2026, 6,000 RSUs were granted to a new member of the executive team. During Q2 of 2026, the number of outstanding RSUs and DSUs was adjusted by 36,319 RSUs and 3,651 DSUs, respectively, in connection with the distribution of Valor Shares under the Courageous Lake spin-out transaction.
Foreign exchange
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| (in thousands of Canadian dollars) | Three months ended June 30, | Six months ended June 30, |
| 2026 | 2025 | 2026 | 2025 |
| Unrealized foreign exchange gain (loss) | (10,783) | | 30,566 | | (18,441) | | 31,084 | |
| Realized foreign exchange gain (loss) | 918 | | (2,311) | | 1,428 | | (903) | |
| Foreign exchange gain (loss) | (9,865) | | 28,255 | | (17,013) | | 30,181 | |
Movements in foreign exchange are primarily due to the revaluation of monetary assets and liabilities as at the balance sheet date and the appreciation or depreciation of the Canadian dollar compared to the US dollar in the period.
The secured note liabilities are denominated in US dollars. The impact of foreign exchange rate fluctuations on the valuation of the secured note liabilities is recorded as foreign exchange gain (loss) through profit and loss. Remaining foreign exchange gains or losses are primarily related to the revaluation of cash and cash equivalents denominated in US dollars. Depreciation of the Canadian dollar relative to the US dollar during the current quarter resulted in a $10.8 million unrealized foreign exchange loss on the revaluation of secured note liabilities and, conversely, a $0.9 million realized foreign exchange gain on the revaluation of cash and cash equivalents denominated in US dollars. Depreciation of the Canadian dollar relative to the US dollar during the six months ended 2026 resulted in a $18.4 million unrealized foreign exchange loss on the
revaluation of secured note liabilities and, conversely, a $1.4 million realized foreign exchange gain on the revaluation of cash and cash equivalents denominated in US dollars.
Conversely, during the comparative periods, the appreciation of the Canadian dollar relative to the US dollar resulted in the opposite impact, with foreign exchange gains recognized on the revaluation of the US dollar-denominated secured note liabilities and foreign exchange losses recognized on the revaluation of US dollar-denominated cash and cash equivalents.
Other income - flow-through shares
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company did not recognize any income related to the flow-through share premiums, as all premiums from prior years' financings had been fully recognized by December 31, 2025. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company recognized $5.9 million and $6.2 million, respectively, of other income related to the flow-through share premium recorded on the financings completed in June 2024, October 2024, December 2024 and June 2025.
Interest income
Interest income recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, amounted to $1.1 million and $2.1 million, respectively, compared to $1.4 million and $2.2 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025. The decrease was primarily attributable to interest income earned on cash deposits and short-term investments, which were higher in 2025 vs 2026.
Finance costs and other
Finance costs and other amounted to $2.20 million and $2.22 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to $0.16 million and $0.29 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2025. As of June 30, capitalized interest related to the secured note liabilities amounted to $16.8 million, compared to $17.2 million in the comparative period of 2025.
Income tax recovery (expense)
During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company recognized income tax expense of $30.6 million, primarily reflecting deferred tax liabilities associated with the $151.7 million gain recognized on the distribution of the Courageous Lake assets to Valor and fair value gains related to the valuation of the secured note liabilities. This was partially offset by foreign exchange losses related to the valuation of the secured note liabilities. The income tax impact of $10.8 million, recorded through other comprehensive income (loss), primarily relates to the portion of the revaluation of the secured note liabilities that was recorded through other comprehensive income (loss) during the current period.
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company recognized income tax expense of $2.3 million, primarily reflecting deferred tax liability arising from the renouncement of flow-through expenditures, partially offset by income tax recovery arising from the losses incurred in the period. The income tax impact of $8.9 million, recorded through other comprehensive income (loss), was related to the portion of the revaluation of the secured note liabilities that was recorded through other comprehensive income (loss) during the current period.
QUARTERLY INFORMATION
Selected financial information for the last eight quarters ending June 30, 2026 is as follows:

Seabridge does not derive any revenue from its operations. Its primary focus is the exploration and development of its resource properties.
The significantly higher income in the current quarter is primarily due to a $151.7 million gain recognized on the distribution of the Courageous Lake mineral properties to Valor in connection with the spin-out transaction. Other fluctuations in income (loss) in current and prior quarters are mainly the result of non-cash valuation gains or losses recognized on the fair value re-valuation of its secured note liabilities each quarter, driven primarily by changes in prices of metals, forecasted future production volumes, discount rates, and foreign exchange gains or losses on the same secured note liabilities that are denominated in U.S. dollars.
The income (loss) per period has also fluctuated depending on the Company’s activity level, reflected in corporate and administrative expenses.

| Total equity | 1,107,478 | | 1,124,971 | |
| Total liabilities and equity | 1,751,136 | | 1,767,849 | |
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents decreased primarily due to cash used in investing and operating activities, partially offset by net $35.8 million raised from ATM share issuance.
Other current assets
Other current assets primarily consist of HST receivables, other receivables, prepaid expenses, and investments. The decrease in other current assets compared to December 31, 2025 was mainly due to the transfer of $83.4 million of assets related to the Courageous Lake Gold Project to Valor Gold Corp. as part of the completion of the spin-out transaction during the current quarter. Prior to the transfer, these assets were classified as assets held for distribution.
Non-current assets
Non‑current assets consist primarily of mineral interests, property and equipment, other long‑term assets and receivables, reclamation deposits, and gold stream interest. The increase from the prior period was driven mainly by continued investment in mineral interests and property and equipment, as well as recognition of $11.7 million gold stream interest related to the Courageous Lake Project. This increase was partially offset by the utilization of a deferred income tax asset of $12.4 million recognized at December 31, 2025. The deferred income tax asset recognized in December 2025 primarily related to the non-cash loss recognized on the fair value remeasurement of secured note liabilities, partially reduced by foreign exchange gains arising from the valuation of the secured notes, resulting in a significant reduction of the deferred income tax asset balance.
Current liabilities
The current liabilities balance primarily consists of trade and other payables and the current portion of the provision for reclamation liabilities. The increase in current liabilities at June 30, 2026 is mainly due to higher payable and accrued liabilities associated with seasonal activities at KSM and exploration projects, included in payable and accrued liabilities is $35.8 million related to the KSM Project, primarily reflecting seasonal increases in construction, development, engineering, and feasibility study planning activities.
Non-current liabilities
Non-current liabilities include secured note liabilities of $561.1 million as at June 30, 2026, compared to $598.5 million as at December 31, 2025. The $37.4 million decrease is primarily due to an increase in credit spread and discount rates, which reduce the fair value of the secured note liabilities, as well as settlement of interest. These decreases were partially offset by higher metal prices, depreciation of the Canadian dollar compared to the US dollar, and the impact of valuing the notes at reporting periods closer to maturity.
Non-current liabilities, excluding secured note liabilities, consist primarily of provision for reclamation liabilities, lease obligations and deferred income tax liabilities. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company recognized a deferred income tax liability of $28.8 million, primarily reflecting the non-cash tax impact of the gain recognized on the transfer of the Courageous Lake assets to Valor Shareholder and non-cash gains arising from the fair value remeasurement of secured note liabilities. This was partially offset by foreign exchange losses related to the secured notes and losses arising from the valuation of marketable securities.

Working Capital (1) | 53,564 | | 109,785 | |
1.This is a non-GAAP financial performance measure with no standard definition under IFRS.
The Company’s working capital position decreased by $56.2 million, from $109.8 million on December 31, 2025 to $53.6 million at June 30, 2026. The decrease was mainly due to cash utilized to fund site operating and investing and higher accounts payable and accrued liabilities resulting from seasonal increases in site activities, partially offset by $35.8 million raised in Q1 2026 through the ATM offering.
During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company raised net $35.8 million (for the year ended 2025 - $100.8 million) through an ATM offering. During the first quarter of 2025, the Company replaced its base shelf prospectus and related registration statement with a new US$750 million base shelf prospectus and registration statement that expires in February 2027.
To satisfy the interest payment on the 2022 Secured Note, during the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company issued 293,956 common shares in respect of the interest incurred during the period (six months ended June 30, 2025 - 585,395 common shares). To satisfy the interest payment on the 2023 Secured Note for the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company issued 195,971 common shares in settlement of interest incurred during the period. Interest incurred during the six months ended June 30, 2025 was accrued as Deferred Interest.
With respect to the secured notes, and following an amendment to the put-rights under the secured note in Q2 2026, as at June 30, 2026, the Company has assessed that the Silver and NSR Financing Puts (“Financing Puts”) are expected to become exercisable on March 24, 2028, and are not exercisable prior to that date. If exercised, the Company would be required to pay US$247.1 million, plus accrued and unpaid interest related to the 2022 Secured Note, and US$164.8 million, plus accrued and unpaid interest related to the 2023 Secured Note. The Company has the option to settle amounts due on exercise of the Financing Puts through the issuance of common shares, subject to ownership limitations, or in cash. The ultimate form of settlement will depend on the Company’s share price, capital structure, and the noteholder’s shareholdings at the date of settlement. As the Financing Puts are not exercisable until March 2028, the Company expects the Financing Puts will become exercisable at that time and no determination regarding the settlement method has been made as at June 30, 2026.
As the Company does not generate cash inflows from operations, the Company is dependent upon current working capital and external sources of financing to fund its exploration projects and ongoing activities. When and if required, the Company will seek additional sources of financing to fund its exploration and development programs at its key projects.
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The following table summarizes the maturities of the Company’s financial liabilities and commitments as at June 30, 2026 based on the undiscounted contractual cash flows:

| 298,428 | | 107,371 | | 72,465 | | 72,047 | | 46,545 | |
Prior to its maturity, the 2022 Secured Note bears interest at 6.5%, or US$14.6 million per annum, payable quarterly in arrears. Prior to its maturity, the 2023 Secured Note bears interest at 6.5% or US$9.8 million per annum, payable quarterly in arrears. The Company can elect to satisfy interest payments in cash or by delivering common shares or a combination of the two, subject to limitations described below.
SECURED NOTES LIABILITIES
On March 24, 2022, KSMCo entered into an agreement selling a secured note that is to be exchanged at maturity for a 60% gross silver royalty (the “Silver Royalty”) on the KSM Project for US$225 million. On May 8, 2026, KSMCo entered into an amending agreement that amended the terms of the Silver Financing Put (defined below) to delay the date this put becomes exercisable by one year in exchange for an increase in the amount payable on exercise of the Silver Financing Put.
The key terms of the secured note issued in 2022, as amended, ("2022 Secured Note") include:
•When the Secured Note matures, the noteholder will use all of the principal amount repaid on maturity to purchase a 60% gross Silver Royalty. Maturity occurs upon the first to occur of:
a.Commercial production being achieved at KSM; and
b.Either on March 24, 2032, or if the EAC expires and the noteholder does not exercise their right to put the 2022 Secured Note to KSMCo, on March 24, 2035.
•Prior to its maturity, the 2022 Secured Note bears interest at 6.5% per annum, payable quarterly in arrears. KSMCo can elect to satisfy interest payments in cash or by delivering the Company's common shares with a value equal to a 5% discount on the 5-day volume weighted average trading price (“VWAP”).
•KSMCo has the option to buy back 50% of the Silver Royalty on or before three years after commercial production has been achieved, for an amount that provides the noteholder with a minimum guaranteed annualized return.
•If project financing to develop, construct and place KSM into commercial production is not in place by March 24, 2028, the noteholder can put the 2022 Secured Note back to KSMCo for US$247.1 million, (“Silver Financing Put”) plus accrued and unpaid interest, with KSMCo able to satisfy such amount in cash or by delivering the Company's common shares at its option subject to limitations noted below. This right expires once such project financing is in place. If the noteholder exercises the Silver Financing Put, the noteholder's right to purchase the Silver Royalty terminates.
•If KSM’s EAC expires at any time while the 2022 Secured Note is outstanding, the noteholder can put the 2022 Secured Note back to KSMCo for US$247.5 million plus accrued and unpaid interest at any time over the following nine months, with KSMCo able to satisfy such amount in cash or by delivering the Company's common shares at its option, subject to limitations noted below. If the noteholder exercises this put right, their right to purchase the Silver Royalty terminates. Receipt of a substantially started determination makes the EAC for the KSM Project no longer subject to expiry which eliminates the possibility that the noteholder can put the 2022 Secured Note back to KSMCo for the EAC expiry. As discussed in the section Litigation Related to the KSM Project, a Court decision on the two legal proceedings against the Province and KSMCo challenging the SSD was released and KSMCo’s application for a substantially started decision has been remitted to the EAO for reconsideration and another decision.
•If commercial production is not achieved at KSM prior to March 24, 2032, and the 2022 Secured Note is not put back to KSMCo, the Silver Royalty payable to the noteholder will increase to a 75% gross silver royalty.
•No amount payable shall be paid in common shares if, after the payment, the noteholder (on its own or when aggregated with the holdings of any person owning a beneficial interest in the 2022 Secured Note) would own more than 9.9% of the Company’s outstanding shares.
•KSMCo's obligations under the 2022 Secured Note are secured by a charge over all of the assets of KSMCo and a limited recourse guarantee from the Company secured by a pledge of the shares of KSMCo.
On June 29, 2023, KSMCo, entered into an agreement selling a secured note on the KSM Project. On May 8, 2026, KSMCo entered into an amending agreement that amended the terms of the NSR Financing Put (defined below) to delay the date this put becomes exercisable by one year in exchange for an increase in
the amount payable on exercise of the NSR Financing Put. The 2023 secured note issued in 2023, as amended, (“2023 Secured Note” and together with the 2022 Secured Note the “Secured Notes”) has a principal amount of US$150 million.
The key terms of the secured note issued in 2023, as amended, ("2023 Secured Note") include:
•When the 2023 Secured Note matures, the noteholder will use all of the principal amount repaid on maturity to purchase the NSR. Maturity occurs upon the first to occur of:
a.Commercial production being achieved at KSM; and
b.Either on March 24, 2032, or if the EAC expires and the noteholder does not exercise their right to put the 2023 Secured Note to KSMCo, on March 24, 2035.
•Prior to its maturity, the 2023 Secured Note bears interest at 6.5% per annum, payable quarterly in arrears. KSMCo can elect to satisfy interest payments in cash or by delivering the Company's common shares with a value equal to a 5% discount on the 5-day VWAP.
•Payment of quarterly interest due on or before June 29, 2025 (the “Deferred Interest”) was deferred and the Deferred Interest plus accrued interest on it, aggregating US$21.5 million, was paid on or before December 29, 2025. The US$21.5 million was satisfied through the issuance of the Company's common shares, thereby eliminating an increase in the NSR percentage to maintain it at 1%.
•KSMCo has the option to buyback 50% of the NSR on or before three years after commercial production has been achieved, for an amount that provides the noteholder with a minimum guaranteed annualized return.
•If project financing to develop, construct and place KSM into commercial production is not in place by March 24, 2028, the noteholder can put the 2023 Secured Note back to KSMCo for US$164.8 million, (“NSR Financing Put”) plus accrued and unpaid interest, with KSMCo able to satisfy such amount in cash or by delivering the Company's common shares at its option, subject to limitations noted below. The NSR Financing Put expires once such project financing is in place. If the noteholder exercises the NSR Financing Put, the noteholder's right to purchase the NSR terminates.
•If KSM’s EAC expires at any time while the 2023 Secured Note is outstanding, the noteholder can put the 2022 Secured Note back to KSMCo for US$165 million plus accrued and unpaid interest at any time over the following nine months, with KSMCo able to satisfy such amount in cash or by delivering the Company's common shares at its option, subject to limitations noted below. If the noteholder exercises this put right, the noteholder's right to purchase the NSR terminates. Receipt of the substantially started determination makes the EAC for the KSM Project no longer subject to expiry which eliminates the possibility that the noteholder can put the 2023 Secured Note back to the KSMCo for the EAC expiry. As discussed in the section Litigation Related to the KSM Project, a Court decision on the two legal proceedings against the Province and KSMCo challenging the SSD was released and KSMCo’s application for a substantially started decision has been remitted to the EAO for reconsideration and another decision.
•If commercial production is not achieved at KSM prior to March 24, 2032 and the 2023 Secured Note is not put back to KSMCo, the NSR payable to the noteholder will increase to a 1.25% NSR.
•No amount payable shall be paid in common shares if, after the payment, any of the noteholder would own more than 9.9% of the Company’s outstanding shares.
•KSMCo's obligations under the 2023 Secured Note are secured by a charge over all of the assets of KSMCo and a limited recourse guarantee from the Company secured by a pledge of the shares of KSMCo.
A number of the options within the Secured Notes agreements represent embedded derivatives. Management has elected to not separate these embedded derivatives from the underlying host secured note, and instead account for the entire Secured Notes as a financial liability at fair value through profit or loss. As a result, changes in fair value of the Secured Notes have a significant impact on the Company’s reported quarterly financial results. Foreign exchange movements related to these U.S. dollar-denominated liabilities also have a significant impact on reported quarterly results and are reported separately from revaluation changes on the Statement of Consolidated Loss. Changes in fair value have no impact on the Secured Notes at maturity. Either the Secured Notes will be put back to the Company at the prescribed amounts as specified in the Secured Notes, or the Secured Notes will be exchanged for the Silver Royalty and NSR.
The Company measures the fair value of its Secured Note liabilities using a discounted cash flow model with a Monte Carlo simulation. Key assumptions into the models include future precious and base metals prices, discount rates, forecasted metals production, and probabilities of EAC expiry, achieving commercial production and securing project financing. Changes to these inputs and assumptions have a significant impact on the measurement of the Secured Note liabilities. There is significant estimation uncertainty with respect to the application of the key assumptions in determining the fair value of the Secured Note liabilities.
During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the fair value of the secured note liabilities decreased by $37.4 million, from $598.5 million on December 31, 2025 to $561.1 million on June 30, 2026. The decrease in the fair value was primarily due to an increase in credit spread and discount rates, as well as settlement of interest, partially offset by higher metal prices, depreciation of the Canadian dollar compared to the US dollar, and the impact of valuing the notes at reporting periods closer to maturity.
The fair value of the Secured Notes is estimated using Level 3 inputs and is most sensitive to changes in discount rates, metal prices, and forecasted production.
The change in the fair value of the secured note liabilities during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and the prior period is summarized in the following table:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| (in thousands of Canadian dollars) | Three months ended June 30, | Six months ended June 30, |
| 2026 | 2025 | 2026 | 2025 |
| Secured Note: | | | | |
| Remeasurement difference | 18,279 | | (23,493) | | 15,700 | | (10,710) | |
| Foreign Exchange gain (loss) | (11,028) | | 30,565 | | (18,684) | | 31,083 | |
| Gain (loss) through other comprehensive income (loss) | (10,882) | | (26,573) | | 40,428 | | (33,675) | |
| Decrease (increase) in fair value during the period | (3,631) | | (19,501) | | 37,444 | | (13,302) | |
Key valuation assumptions in respect of the 2022 Notes are summarized in the following table:
2022 Secured Note:

To satisfy the interest payment on the 2022 Secured Note, during the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company issued 293,956 common shares in respect of the interest incurred during the period (six months ended June 30, 2025- 585,395 common shares).
According to IFRS 13, the fair value of a financial liability with a demand feature must not be lower than the amount payable on demand, discounted from the earliest possible date that payment could be demanded. Based on the evaluation of the likelihood of various scenarios regarding the timeline for securing project financing, management continues to believe that the Silver Financing Put would become exercisable.
As at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the fair value of the 2022 Secured Note exceeded the discounted value of the contractual cash flows related to the 2022 Secured Note.
During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the fair value of the 2022 Secured Note increased, and the Company recognized a loss of $7.3 million (six months ended June 30, 2025 - gain of $9.3 million).
The following key inputs and assumptions were used in the determination of fair value of the 2023 Secured Notes:
2023 Secured Note:
| | | | | | | | |
| Key inputs and assumptions | June 30, 2026 | December 31, 2025 |
| Forecast NSR: | | |
| Gold in thousands of ounces | 10,500 | 10,500 |

CONTINGENCIES
During 2016, upon the completion of an audit by tax authorities of the Company's application under the British Columbia Mineral Exploration Tax Credit (“BCMETC”) program, in respect of expenditures incurred in 2010 and 2011, the Company was reassessed $3.6 million, including accrued interest for expenditures that the tax authority has categorized as not qualifying for the BCMETC program. In 2017 the Company filed an objection to the reassessment with the appeals division of the tax authorities and paid one-half of the reassessed amount to the Receiver General. In 2019, the Company received a decision from the appeals division that the Company’s objection was denied, and the Company filed a Notice of Appeal with the British Columbia Supreme Court. The Attorney General of Canada replied to the facts and arguments in the Company’s Notice of Appeal and stated its position that the Company’s expenditures did not qualify for the BCMETC program. The Company presented its case in the BC Supreme Court in September 2024. As at June 30, 2026, the Company had paid $1.6 million to the Receiver General, and the Canada Revenue Agency (“CRA”) had withheld $2.3 million of HST credits due to the Company that would fully cover the residual balance claimed by CRA, including interest. As a result, at March 31, 2025 the Company had recorded a long-term receivable of $3.9 million, including $0.3 million of additional interest charged after the reassessment. On March 26, 2025, a judgment (the “BC METC Judgment”) was rendered substantially in the favor of the Company and confirmed that the Company’s expenditures did qualify for the BCMETC program. During the last quarter of 2025, the Company was returned the full $3.9 million plus $0.5 million in additional interest, or $4.4 million in total.
As previously disclosed in the Company’s prior years' financial statements and in its consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025, in 2019 the Company received a notice from the CRA that it proposed to reduce the amount of expenditures reported as Canadian Exploration Expenses (“CEE”) for the three years ended December 31, 2016. The Company has funded certain of its exploration expenditures, from time to time, with the proceeds from the issuance of flow-through shares and renounced, to flow-through share subscribers, the expenditures which it determined to be CEE. The notice disputed the eligibility of the same types of expenditures the CRA categorized as not qualifying for the BCMETC program in the case described above and the relevant wording of the test for expenditures that qualify for the BCMETC program is the same as the relevant wording of the test for expenditures that qualify as CEE. The Company responded to the CRA auditors with additional information for their consideration. In 2020, the CRA auditors responded to the Company’s submission and, although accepting additional expenditures as CEE, reiterated that their position remains largely unchanged and subsequently issued reassessments to the Company reflecting the additional CEE expenditures accepted and $2.3 million of Part Xll.6 tax owing. The CRA has reassessed certain investors who subscribed for the flow-through shares, reducing CEE deductions. Notice of objections to the Company’s and investors’ reassessments have been filed for all those that have been received and will be appealed to the courts, should the notice of objections be denied. The Company has indemnified the investors that subscribed for the flow-through shares and that have been reassessed by depositing the amount of their reassessments, including interest charges, into the accounts of the reassessed investors with the Receiver General in return for such investors' agreement to object to their respective reassessments and to repay the Company any refund of the amount deposited on their behalf upon resolution of the Company’s appeal. During 2021, 2022 and 2023, the Company deposited $9.4 million into the accounts of certain investors with the Receiver General. The deposits made have been recorded as long-term receivables on the statement of financial position as at June 30, 2026. The potential tax indemnification to the investors is estimated to be $10.8 million, plus $4.3 million in potential interest. If the reasoning of the BCMETC Judgement is applied to the expenditures claimed not to be eligible as CEE by the CRA, the notices of objection should be accepted and the reassessments of the Company and the investors should be reversed. No provision has been recorded related to the tax, potential interest, or the potential indemnity, as the Company and its advisors do not consider it probable that there will ultimately be an amount payable.
CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
The Company’s management, under the supervision of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, are responsible for designing adequate internal controls over financial reporting or causing them to
be designed under their supervision in order to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with IFRS. Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal controls over financial reporting. The control framework used is the Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).
Disclosure Controls and Procedures and Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
Pursuant to regulations adopted by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, under the U.S. Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and those of the Canadian Securities Administrators, management evaluates the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, and internal control over financial reporting. This evaluation is done under the supervision of, and with the participation of, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer.
Disclosure controls and procedures have been designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company is accumulated and communicated to management as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded, based on their evaluation of the design of the disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2026, that they are appropriately designed.
Limitations of Controls and Procedures
The Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, believes that any internal controls over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well designed, can have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.
