TRX Gold Reports Record Q2 2026 Production and Company Update
TORONTO, March 02, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- TRX Gold Corporation (TSX: TRX) (NYSE American: TRX) (the “Company” or “TRX Gold”) is pleased to announce preliminary results for Q2 20261 as well as a significantly improved capital structure following the exercise of share purchase warrants (“warrants”) of the Company during the quarter. Unless otherwise noted, all references to currency in this press release refer to US dollars.
Stephen Mullowney, TRX Gold CEO commented: “We’re very pleased with the positive trajectory and record gold production achieved at Buckreef Gold this quarter as the Company continued to benefit from access to higher grade ore and improved mill recoveries following our recent process plant upgrades. The record production and leverage to record gold price levels enabled the Company to continue to strengthen its working capital position in Q2 2026, while continuing to invest in the future growth and development of Buckreef Gold. We are now on a significant growth trajectory, and things are getting really exciting! We are anticipating growth in production and resources over time as we continue to execute our plant expansion, increase exploration and evaluate implementation of an optimized mine plan as a result of higher gold prices. We will now be undertaking these activities with a clean capital structure, well capitalized balance sheet and very low debt levels.”
- Record quarterly production and gold price realization: In Q2 2026, the Company achieved record quarterly production of 7,453 ounces of gold, a 13% increase in production over Q1 2026 and sold approximately 7,400 ounces of gold, also a record for the Company. During Q2 2026, the Company also has benefited from a record average market price for gold of approximately $4,682 per ounce (London PM fix), a 21% increase over the Company’s Q1 2026 average realized price per ounce of gold. Revenue is expected to be significantly higher in Q2 2026 than in Q1 2026.
- Clean capital structure following warrant exercises: During Q2 2026, all outstanding warrants of the Company were either exercised or expired. The Company now has a clean capital structure with no remaining warrants outstanding. In Q2 2026, the Company received total gross proceeds of approximately $21.0 million from the exercise of warrants. The Company received gross proceeds of $12.9 million from the exercise of 16,075,386 warrants at an exercise price of $0.80. These warrants had an expiry of February 11, 2026. The remaining 1,538,461 warrants with an exercise price of $0.80 expired unexercised on February 11, 2026. Furthermore, the Company received gross proceeds of $8.2 million from the exercise of all 18,576,923 warrants at an exercise price of $0.44. These warrants had an expiry of January 26, 2027. Following the exercise and expiry of the warrants, the Company has no remaining warrants outstanding. The Company’s share capital consists of approximately 325.6 million common shares issued and outstanding.
- Significantly improved Working Capital ratio of ~2.5x During Q2 2026 the Company continued to strengthen its working capital position through increased production, organically generated cashflow, improved liquidity and an increase in stockpile inventory. As a result, the Company’s current ratio has improved from approximately 1.7 at November 30, 2025, to a ratio approximately 2.5 at February 28, 2026. Following the exercise of the warrants, the Company has a cash balance of approximately $25 million, an increase in net cash of approximately $15.8 million from Q1 2026 as the Company repaid its deferred revenue and improved accounts payable over Q2 2026. As indicated in prior disclosures, the Company has now recapitalized its working capital position.
- Advancing 3,000+ tonne per day (“tpd”) process plant expansion: During Q2 2026, the Company continued to advance upgrades to the 2,000 tpd processing plant and the expansion towards a larger 3,000+ tpd processing plant in line with the robust Preliminary Economic Assessment (“PEA”) completed in Q3 2025. Procurement has been finalized and manufacturing accelerated for several key components, including (i) the pre-leach thickener (arrived at the Dar es Salaam port, civil construction on-site is complete, commissioning is anticipated in Q3 2026); (ii) upgraded agitators & interstage screens (delivered to site, installation underway, completion expected in Q3 2026); (iii) Aachen reactor (installed on-site, operating using compressed air pending commissioning of the oxygen plant); (iv) oxygen plant (enroute to Tanzania, expected to be commissioned in Q3 2026); and (v) ADR plant and new gold room (fabrication is underway, delivery to site expected in Q4 2026, commissioning targeted before the end of Q4 2026). During Q2 2026 the Company also completed several plant enhancements, including the installation of a new apron feeder, tramp metal magnet and weightometer, as well as upgrades to the conveyor belt to improve ore distribution. Metallurgical testwork supporting the upgraded and expanded plant flowsheet was substantially completed in Q2 2026, enabling final equipment specifications for the flotation circuit, fine grind mill, concentrate thickener, and concentrate intensive leach circuit. Procurement processes for the Semi Autogenous Grind (“SAG”) mill, flotation circuit, and fine-grind circuit are underway, with equipment orders expected to be finalized in Q3 2026. Modelling and procurement of a new tertiary cone crusher are also progressing, with delivery and installation targeted for late Q3 2026.
- Enhancing tailings storage (“TSF”) and site infrastructure: A third and final lift of TSF 2.2 has been approved and construction has commenced, with completion expected by the end of Q3 2026. Engineering design for TSF 3 has been completed, with regulatory approvals anticipated in early Q3 2026. TSF 3 is designed as a life-of-mine facility to be constructed in two stages, with Stage 1 targeted for completion by the end of Q4 2026. Additional on-site offices and housing were completed during Q2 2026, and planning is underway for expanded junior camp facilities. Security upgrades for the process plant and fuel facilities are scheduled to commence in Q3 2026 and are expected to be completed in Q4 2026.
- Planning for Aggressive Drilling and Exploration: In Q2 2026, the Company continued to advance its longer-term mine development and exploration strategy. A second geophysical survey (Induced Polarisation or “IP”) commenced, following up on ten targets identified during the Q1 2026 detailed magnetic survey. The Company’s first exploration drill rig has arrived on site and has begun resource upgrade and grade control drilling at the Eastern Porphyry pit, supporting planned mining in Q3 2026. A diamond drill was mobilized to site at the end of Q2 2026 and will commence exploration drilling to follow up on revised targets identified through the IP survey, as well as initiate a geotechnical drilling program to support planned underground mining at the Main Pit, Stamford Bridge, and Eastern Porphyry.
- Strategic Mine Planning to Expand Further. In light of the rise in gold price, well above the PEA reserve estimate of US$1,900/oz assumption, the Company has initiated a revision of the life-of-mine plan. Preliminary analysis indicates the potential for an expanded third cutback at Main Pit, which could extend open-pit operations and enhance total recoverable ounces. While this may delay the commencement of underground mining at the Main Pit, the Company is also evaluating the potential for an earlier start to underground mining at the Stamford Bridge orebody, alongside accelerating mining of the expanded Eastern Porphyry pit. As the revised mine planning work progresses, the Company intends to reassess long-term processing capacity with the addition of the SAG mill operating in tandem with the existing circuit, targeting an annual throughput well above the capacity anticipated in the PEA.
