Overview

Perpetua Resources Corp. (formerly Midas Gold Corp.) (the “Corporation”) was incorporated on February 22, 2011 under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia). The Corporation was organized to hold shares in wholly owned subsidiaries that locate, acquire, develop and restore mineral properties located principally in the Stibnite – Yellow Pine mining district in Valley County, Idaho, USA (the “Stibnite Mining District”). The Corporation’s principal asset is 100% ownership in subsidiaries that control the Stibnite Gold Project. The Corporation currently operates in one segment: mineral exploration and development in the United States. The registered and records office of Perpetua Resources is located at Suite 2501-550 Burrard St, Vancouver, BC, V6C 2B5, Canada and the corporate head office is located at Suite 200-702 W Idaho St, Boise, ID 83702, USA.

2026 Outlook and Goals

Perpetua Resources’ vision is to provide the United States with a domestic source of the critical mineral antimony, develop one of the largest and highest-grade open pit gold mines in the country, and restore an abandoned brownfield site. Perpetua Resources’ focus for the remainder of 2026 is on the following:

Financing Activities

The Company continues to execute its comprehensive plan to finance construction of the Project since it was announced in June 2025.

On May 21, 2026, the board of U.S. EXIM unanimously approved a $2.9 billion senior secured long-term loan (“U.S. EXIM Loan”) under the Make More in America Initiative (“MMIA”) to support the development of the Company’s Stibnite Gold Project. U.S. EXIM’s approval came after extensive technical, financial, environmental and social due diligence and a 25-day notice period to Congress. The U.S. EXIM Loan will be available upon completion of definitive documentation and satisfaction of customary conditions precedent, which is expected to occur in the second half of 2026. The U.S. EXIM Loan is to be structured as a 13-year senior secured credit facility of $2.9 billion, consisting of an upfront facility of $2.4 billion with the remainder to cover capitalized interest during construction and U.S. EXIM’s exposure fee. Interest on the U.S. EXIM Loan is to be set at the applicable long-dated U.S. Treasury bond rate plus 100 basis points and will be fixed at the time of the first drawdown. Scheduled repayments are anticipated to commence in 2030. If the U.S. EXIM Loan is finalized in the amount indicated, the Company would have sufficient capital, together with $574.2 million of unrestricted cash on hand as of June 30, 2026, to finance the estimated direct capital costs of $2,576 million to construct the Project (based on the capital expenditures estimate as of December 31, 2025 in the TRS), as well as financial assurance and certain discretionary corporation and exploration costs. There can be no assurance the terms or amount of such loan will be the same as those approved by the board of U.S. EXIM or that the proposed financing plan will be sufficient for us to construct the Project. Perpetua continues to work with U.S. EXIM to advance through completion of U.S. EXIM’s due diligence and documentation processes. The final amount and timing of such funding from U.S. EXIM, if any, is uncertain and subject to conditions outside the Company’s control. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors.”

The capital costs presented in the initial capital estimate in the TRS do not include financial assurance, debt service, cost overrun accounts and certain discretionary corporate and exploration costs. As a condition to the closing of the U.S. EXIM loan, the Company expects that it will be required to put in place one or more secured accounts or facilities to fund potential cost overruns during the construction phase of the Project. The Company is exploring various options for such facilities, which may include cash on hand, subordinated debt, letters of credit or other financial instruments or may require the Company to raise additional capital through debt or equity offerings, or enter into strategic or commercial agreements with third parties.

In addition, to facilitate satisfaction of construction phase financial assurance requirements, the Company entered into multiple related financial agreements with respect to the approximately $160 million construction phase financial assurance requirements. The Company’s financial assurance obligations may be adjusted by applicable regulators to reflect changes to reclamation costs as construction proceeds. Financial assurance obligations are also subject to adjustment when the Project transitions to operations. Any increased financial assurance obligations are expected to be financed using cash on hand, the U.S. EXIM loan or other available sources of capital.

See additional details in the “Liquidity and Capital Resources” section below.

Since August 2025, the Company has accelerated construction and operational readiness and contracting activities. Recent updates include:

Financing Activities

The Company has continued to execute its comprehensive plan to finance construction of the Project since it was announced in June 2025. On March 30, 2026, the board of U.S. EXIM initiated the last formal step before a vote for final approval of an approximately $2.7 billion senior secured loan for the construction and development of the Project by unanimously agreeing to publish

a notification to Congress with respect to the proposed loan. The loan, if approved, is expected to be comprised of a direct loan of approximately $2.2 billion for construction of the Project, financial assurance and certain discretionary corporation and exploration costs, and the remainder representing capitalized interest and fees. If approved by the board of U.S. EXIM in the amount indicated, the Company would have sufficient capital, together with $714 million of cash on hand as of December 31, 2025, to finance the estimated direct capital costs of $2,576 million to construct the Project, (based on the capital expenditures estimate as of December 31, 2025 in the TRS), as well as financial assurance and discretionary corporation and exploration costs. Initiation of the notification to Congress does not represent a financing commitment from U.S. EXIM. A final funding commitment, if any, is conditional upon the satisfaction of certain conditions, including final approval by the U.S. EXIM board following a 25-day notification period to Congress and execution of definition loan documentation. Based on the Congressional review timeline and U.S. EXIM process, the Company anticipates a final vote on the loan by the board of U.S. EXIM shortly after the notice period ends. Any funding under the loan (if approved) would be subject to finalization of definitive loan documents with U.S. EXIM and satisfaction of all conditions to closing, which the Company anticipates could occur in the second half of 2026. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors.”

The capital costs presented in the initial capital estimate in the TRS do not include financial assurance, debt service, cost overrun accounts and certain discretionary corporate and exploration costs. As a condition to the closing of the U.S. EXIM loan, the Company expects that it will be required to put in place one or more secured accounts or facilities to fund cost overruns during the construction phase of the Project. The Company is exploring various options for such facilities, which may include cash on hand, subordinated debt, letters of credit or other financial instruments or may require the Company to raise additional capital through debt or equity offerings, or enter into strategic or commercial agreements with third parties.

In addition, to facilitate satisfaction of construction phase financial assurance requirements, the Company entered into multiple related financial agreements with respect to the approximately $160 million construction phase financial assurance requirements. See Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company’s financial assurance obligations may be adjusted by applicable regulators to reflect changes to reclamation costs as construction proceeds. Financial assurance obligations are also subject to adjustment when the Project transitions to operations. Any increased financial assurance obligations are expected to be financed using cash on hand, the project financing loan or other available sources of capital.
