The combination creates a more broadly diversified royalty portfolio across commodities, jurisdictions, and development stages, enhancing resilience and scale, with key cash-flowing assets such as Caserones, Timok, Karlawinda, and Leeville. This broader portfolio provides greater optionality through exposure to an expanded pipeline of organic growth opportunities and future project advancements, including the Laverton Gold Project, which we expect to become a cornerstone asset. As we enter 2026, we are well positioned to benefit from the merger’s synergies and deliver continued value creation for shareholders.”

Financial Summary for the Three Months and Year Ended December 31, 2025:

Key Strategic Developments

2025 was a transformative year for Elemental, defined by strategic initiatives that strengthened the Company’s scale, diversification, and long-term growth profile. Key developments during the year included:

• Completion of the merger with EMX, creating a larger, combined royalty company with a materially expanded revenue base and enhanced capital markets presence.
• Secured a strategic investment from Tether Investments S.A. de C.V (“Tether”), strengthening the share register, enhancing financial flexibility, and supporting the Company’s growth initiatives.
• Acquired the uncapped 2% GRR royalty over the Laverton Gold Project in Western Australia for US$52 million, which is expected to become a cornerstone asset within the portfolio given its scale, development trajectory, and long-term upside.
• Benefited from continued advancement and optimization across producing assets within the portfolio, supporting stable cash flow generation and near-term growth visibility.
• Announced after year end, the Company advanced its capital allocation framework and financial capacity through the introduction of an inaugural annual dividend of US$0.12 per share (paid quarterly) and the establishment of a US$150 million revolving credit facility and US$50 million accordion feature, enhancing balance sheet flexibility to support future growth initiatives while delivering sustainable returns to shareholders.

Please see our MD&A for the year ended December 31, 2025 for more details on our guidance and see “Forward-Looking Statements” and “Future-Oriented Financial Information” below.

The following is an evaluation of the Company’s performance compared to our 2025 Guidance:

^A Assumed commodity prices of US$2,600/oz gold and US$4.00/lb copper.

^B Assumed commodity price of US$4,000/oz gold and US$4.00/lb copper.

Excluding revenue attributable to assets acquired through the merger with EMX, Elemental’s assets recognized 12,459 GEO Sales¹, placing results in the top half of the updated guidance range. Assets acquired through the EMX merger contributed an additional 1,826 GEOs following the date of the closing of the transaction, November 13, 2025. Had the merger taken place on January 1, 2025, the Company would have generated US$72.2 million in revenue and US$87.5 million in revenue plus attributable share of Caserones¹, aligning with consensus combined revenue guidance of US$85 million.

2026 Guidance

In 2026, we expect royalty revenue of 17,000 to 21,000 GEOs. 2026 guidance is based on public forecasts and disclosures by the owners and operators of our assets, historical performance, and management’s understanding of the underlying producing assets.

  ^A Assumed commodity price of US$4,500/oz gold and US$5.50/lb copper.

The noted increase in expected GEOs compared to 2025 is mainly due to the contribution of assets acquired through the merger with EMX in Q4 2025, offset by a decrease in production at Korali Sud.

The Company has assumed a commodity price of US$4,500/oz gold and US$5.50/lb copper. The increase in gold prices has outpaced the rise in copper prices, resulting in a negative impact on GEOs due to Elemental’s exposure to copper-linked assets, specifically Caserones and Timok.

Following an amendment to the SLM California shareholder agreement effective November 13, 2025, the Company reassessed its interest in SLM California, which holds the Caserones royalty. The revised arrangement was determined to constitute a joint operation under IFRS 11, resulting in the discontinuation of equity accounting under IAS 28 and the recognition of the Company’s proportionate share of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. As a result, the contribution from Caserones in 2026 will be fully categorized as revenue and will no longer require an adjustment to revenue in future periods.

Portfolio Growth

Elemental continues to advance a disciplined growth strategy focused on building a globally diversified portfolio of high-quality royalty and streaming interests, with a core emphasis on gold and precious metals. The Company’s portfolio provides exposure to a range of assets throughout the development and production pipeline, including cornerstone interests such as Karlawinda, Laverton, and Leeville. This gold-focussed approach is complemented with selective exposure to large-scale base metals assets such as Caserones and Timok, with diversification across commodities, jurisdictions, and operators supporting  stable cash flow generation, while preserving meaningful upside to exploration success and mine life extensions.

Near to medium-term portfolio growth is expected to be supported by continued development, optimization, and exploration activities at several key assets. At Timok, ongoing advancement of both the Upper and Lower Zone projects provides exposure to a world-class copper-gold system with significant scale potential. In addition, recent exploration success in the broader Timok district, including the Malka Golaja discovery, highlights the prospectivity of the regional land package and reinforces the long-term optionality of Elemental’s royalty interest. While the ultimate impact of such discoveries remains subject to further delineation and development by the operator, management views these results as encouraging indicators of the district’s geological potential.

Elemental’s exposure to precious metals growth is anchored by assets such as Karlawinda, a long-life gold operation in Western Australia. Ongoing mining activities and regional exploration at Karlawinda offer the potential to support stable production and incremental upside over time. The recently acquired Laverton royalty further enhances the Company’s exposure to a highly prospective gold district in Western Australia, in addition to the acquisition of the Dugbe royalty in Liberia, both of which support the near to medium-term pipeline of exploration-driven optionality and reinforce Elemental’s strategy of acquiring royalties over large land packages in established mining camps with Tier-one operators.

In addition to its core precious metals weighting, Elemental benefits from exposure to established and operating base metal assets such as Caserones, a large-scale copper mine where continued operational optimization and exploration efforts may contribute to sustained production and potential mine life extension. These base metal assets complement the gold-focussed portfolio, providing diversification and leverage to copper demand, which is increasingly supported by structural trends related to electrification, infrastructure investment, and the global energy transition.

Elemental remains well positioned to pursue additional accretive royalty and streaming opportunities across its targeted commodities. Management continues to evaluate a robust pipeline of potential transactions, reflecting sustained interest from mining companies seeking non-dilutive sources of capital. The Company’s strong balance sheet, recently amended US$150 million revolving credit facility, with a US$50 million accordion, and scalable business model provide enhanced financial flexibility to support disciplined capital deployment. The Company also benefits from supportive long-term shareholders, including Tether, whose investment reflects confidence in Elemental’s strategy and growth outlook.

Management believes Elemental’s gold-focussed, diversified asset base, strengthened liquidity position, and aligned shareholder support provide a solid foundation for long-term value creation.
