Key highlights
Key highlights for the half-year ended 31 December 2025 include:
-
Record statutory net profit after tax of $766.6 million, a 110% improvement on the period to 31 December 2024 ($365.1 million). Underlying profit after tax of $785.2 million for the half-year was also a record (31 December 2024: $385.1 million);
-
Record Underlying EBITDA increased 57% year-on-year from $1,013.9 million at 31 December 2024 to $1,589.2 million, driven by consistent and on-plan production delivery and higher gold and copper prices;
-
Earnings per share increased by 107% to a half-yearly record of 37.96 cents at 31 December 2025 from 18.36 cents at 31 December 2024;
-
Consistent operational performance delivering gold and copper production in line with plan at 365 thousand ounces and 36 thousand tonnes. FY26 guidance is on track to deliver 710,000 - 780,000 ounces gold and towards the lower end of 70,000 - 80,000 tonnes copper due to the December 2025 weather event at Ernest Henry. Group AISC guidance is updated to $1,640/oz from $1,760/oz, a 6% improvement on original guidance reflecting continued cost control and higher by-product credits, partially offset by the Ernest Henry weather impact;
-
Group cash flow (cash flow pre acquisition and integration costs, and debt and dividend payments) totalled $608.4 million (31 December 2024: $272.6 million). Record operating and net mine cash flows of $1,733.4 million and $1,093.1 million respectively were recorded for the half (increased 75% and 151% respectively from 31 December 2024: $990.6 million and $434.7 million);
-
The cash balance increased to $966.5 million at 31 December 2025, improving by $206.9 million from $759.5 million at 30 June 2025; and
-
An interim, fully franked FY26 dividend of 20.0 cents per share ($406.1 million), which is Evolution's 26th consecutive dividend. The Dividend Reinvestment Plan ("DRP") will be offered to shareholders with no discount for the FY26 interim dividend.

Portfolio
-
At Mungari, commissioning of the expanded mill was completed during the period, with final capital expenditure of $212 million, representing a 15% saving to the original budget. The expanded plant operated at an annualised processing rate of 4.1Mtpa in the December quarter, supporting the planned higher production rate going forward.
-
At Cowal, the Open Pit Continuation (OPC) project achieved a key milestone with completion of the northern protection bund, enabling development of the E46 cutback. The OPC project remains on schedule and within budget, with total capital investment unchanged at $430 million over the next seven years.
-
At Northparkes, production commenced from the E48 sub level cave during the period, with ramp up activities underway. Study work on the E22 deposit was completed during the half-year and the development of a block cave was approved by the Board on 10 February 2026. In addition, on 10 February 2026, the Board approved the Course Particle Flotation project to improve mill recoveries and the Group announced that it had entered into an amended and restated metal purchase and sale agreement with Triple Flag International Ltd. The new terms, which are in addition to the already existing stream arrangement terms with Triple Flag, relate to E44 mine development at Northparkes.
-
At Ernest Henry, key infrastructure upgrades supporting future production were completed during the period. In late December, extreme rainfall -
-
resulted in a temporary suspension of underground mining, with recovery activities progressing and only short term impacts expected. Overall, the projected impact of the event on FY26 production is 7-8koz of gold and 4-5kt of copper. On 10 February 2026, the Board approved the development of Bert.

Operating and Financial Review
Profit Overview
The Group achieved a record statutory net profit after tax of $766.6 million for the period ended 31 December 2025 (31 December 2024: $365.1 million). The underlying net profit after tax increased 104% to $785.2 million for the period (31 December 2024: $385.1 million). The following graph reflects the movements in the Group's profit after tax for the period ended 31 December 2025 compared to the period ended 31 December 2024.
Gold sales decreased by 4% (16,812 ounces) against the half-year to 31 December 2024 driven by less open pit ore mined, supplemented by lower grade stockpile ore at Cowal and the ramp down of activities at Mt Rawdon, offset by record production from Mungari. Gold revenue benefited from a higher achieved gold price of $5,726/oz (31 December 2024: $3,875/oz). Sales included 22,000oz of hedged gold at an average price of $3,206/oz. The current spot price of ~$7,100/oz, which is ~$1,338/oz higher than the achieved gold price for the half-year, which provides opportunity for a stronger cash flow in the second half of the year.
Total copper sales of 37,534 tonnes was in-line with prior year sales with record delivery from Northparkes under Evolution ownership. Copper byproducts benefited from a record achieved price of $17,167/t, 24% higher than prior period (31 December 2024: $13,795/t).
With the Open Pit Continuation (OPC) ramp up and completion of Mungari 4.2 project, operating costs increased by $133.8 million. The increase was driven primarily by labour costs, which represent almost half the total cost base, together with higher royalties linked to higher metal prices, electricity, consumables,mechanical spares and other inflationary cost impact.
The higher profit for the year resulted in the tax expense for the period being $353.4 million, $198.8 million higher than 31 December, 2024.

Cowal continued to be the most significant contributor of cash flow to the Group, accounting for $576.6 million of operating cash flow and $418.2 million of net mine cash flow (31 December 2024: $365.5 million and $268.3 million respectively), both records under Evolution ownership.
Underground operations continue to ramp up, comprising ~25% of the ore feed to the mill in the September quarter, increasing to ~40% of the mill feed in the December quarter.
The Open Pit Continuation (OPC) project achieved a major milestone during the half-year with the northern protection bund now structurally complete, which is key enabler to the development of E46. The project is progressing on schedule and within budget, with the capital investment budget unchanged at $430 million over the next seven years.
Open pit mining of Stage H is expected to continue in the second half of FY26, before transitioning to the Stage I cutback which will require processing of lower grade stockpiles in FY27.
Major capital of $141.7 million included investment in the OPC project ($44.6 million), integrated waste landform ($30.2 million), underground mine development ($27.5 million), village establishment costs ($6.6 million) and processing plant upgrades ($6.3 million).

Ernest Henry contributed significantly to Group cash flows, generating $338.4 million of operating cash flow and $240.2 million of net mine cash flow (31 December 2024: $228.1 million and $145.9 million respectively), second to Cowal. All-in Sustaining Cost improved to an impressive $(3,468)/oz, driven by cost control and favourable metal pricing.
Key infrastructure works supporting future production in the main cave, including ventilation system upgrades were completed during the September quarter. These works paved the way for increased trucking performance moving forward.
At the end of December 2025 Ernest Henry experienced ~300mm of rainfall in a 24-hour period, resulting in water ingress to the underground mine and a temporary suspension of production. The underground mine was evacuated, with all personnel safely accounted for and no injuries reported.
Recovery activities are progressing well, with only short-term operational impacts expected. The bi-annual planned shutdowns of the mine and concentrator have been brought forward to earlier from March 2026 to mitigate the impact on the operation. Overall, the projected impact of the event on FY26 production is 7-8koz of gold and 4-5kt of copper.
The Bert Pre-Feasibility Study was completed in the period as planned, supporting future production growth. The Board approved the project on 10 February 2026 into execution.

Record net mine cash flow of $149.9 million for the half-year, a 216% increase on the previous corresponding period, brings Northparkes’ total net cash flow to $331 million under Evolution ownership. AISC of $(6,378)/oz contributed significantly to Group AISC improvements, driven by favourable metal prices and a higher copper-to-gold production mix. Northparkes also achieved record copper sold under Evolution ownership of 15,892t for the period.
The completion of mining of the E31 open pits in FY25 has resulted in a shift to a higher copper-to-gold production ratio and a decrease in total ore mined. Underground ore mined increased 31% compared with the previous corresponding period, while processing throughput increased 7%.
A key operational milestone was achieved with the commencement of production from the new E48 sub-level cave (SLC). The focus through the remainder of FY26 will be to ramp up production from the E48 SLC.
Study works on all options for the E22 deposit were completed in the period and development of a block cave was approved by the Board on 10 February 2026 along with the Course Particle Flotation project to improve mill recoveries.

During the half-year, Mungari completed commissioning of the expanded mill and associated mining infrastructure, delivering the project for $212 million, 15% below the original $250 million budget. The mill is now fully operational and achieved a record annualised processing rate of 4.1Mtpa in the December quarter, representing 12 months of consistent production growth. The site generated record net mine cash flow of $147.2 million, equivalent to ~70% of the capital invested in the expansion.
Non-operational costs relate to the Mungari mill expansion project commissioning and costs associated with third party ore purchased as a part of ramp-up testing of the processing plant. The associated costs and ounces of the purchased ore are excluded from AISC.
Mining rates are ramping up in alignment with the mill, with total ore mined increasing 40% compared to the previous comparable period, underpinned by the Castle Hill open pit which will provide base load ore feed for at least the next 8-10 years. The Castle Hill haul road is now fully sealed which will deliver lower ongoing operating and maintenance costs as well as ensuring all-weather haulage. The works were strategically deferred until after the winter period to ensure the highest quality of the road.

Mt Rawdon generated $18.7 million net mine cash flow during the period. The operation continues to deliver meaningful cash flows to the Group even as it ramps down production. Higher AISC predominantly reflects non-cash movements and lower recoveries as the operation processes low grade stockpiles, which will continue through the remainder of FY26.
Capital expenditure is anticipated to remain low given the final tailings storage facility lift is now complete.
As Mt Rawdon nears the end of its mine life, work continues on advancing the potential to convert the site into a significant pumped hydro clean energy generator.

Evolution Mining Limited Directors' Report 31 December 2025
Financial Performance
Profit or Loss
Revenue for the half-year ended 31 December 2025 increased by 37% to $2,794.4 million (31 December 2024: $2,032.8 million) comprised of $2,135.3 million of gold, $644.3 million of copper and $38.5 million of silver revenue (31 December 2024: $1,528.2 million of gold, $528.6 million of copper and $23.3 million of silver revenue), which is attributable to higher commodity prices.
At 31 December 2025, the Group's gold delivery commitments totalled 28,000 ounces at an average price of $3,277/oz for the Australian operations with quarterly deliveries through to June 2026. These hedges were put in place to protect the investment in the Mungari 4.2 Project.
Increased operating costs were predominantly driven by increased mining activity, combined with higher royalties associated with higher metal prices, and inflationary cost pressures.
Balance Sheet
Total assets increased by 4% during the half-year to $10,021.9 million (30 June 2025: $9,637.2 million). Cash and cash equivalents increased by $206.9 million driven mainly by net mine cash flow achieved of $1,093.1 million, net of $280.0 million of debt repayments, $240.6 million income tax payments, $116.1 million dividend payments and $39.1 million interest and borrowing costs payments.
The net carrying amount of property, plant and equipment increased by $118.3 million, primarily due to additions totaling of $324.2 million. Key additions include $99.6 million at Cowal, $70.2 million at Red Lake, $64.3 million at Mungari and $57.3 million at Ernest Henry. This increase was partially offset by depreciation and amortisation of $112.3 million. Mine development decreased by $5.2 million, reflecting additions of $212.0 million largely comprising $70.0 million at Mungari, $58.2 million at Cowal, $46.3 million at Red Lake and $38.0 million at Ernest Henry, which were more than offset by depreciation and amortisation of $237.2 million. Exploration and Evaluation expenditure increased by $14.9 million, driven primarily by additions of $21.8 million, partially offset by write-offs of $3.7 million and $3.3 million of foreign exchange movements. Additions mainly comprised $7.4 million at Mungari and $ 3.1 million at Red Lake, with the balance relating to exploration activities across the Group.
Total liabilities for the Group of $4,388.9 million at 31 December 2025 (30 June 2025: $4,679.8 million), decreased by $290.9 million, or 6.2% on the prior period. The key drivers consist of a $306.0 million decrease in interest bearing liabilities net of capitalised borrowing costs, primarily driven by debt repayments and the Cross-Currency Interest Rate Swap ('CCIRS') valuations, and a $66.2 million decrease in trade and other payables. These decreases were partially offset by increase of $39.2 million in provisions, largely attributable to updated discounting assumptions for rehabilitation provisions.
Cash Flow
Total cash inflow for the period amounted to $206.9 million (31 December 2024: $117.0 million) net of effects of exchange rates.

The increase in net cash inflow from operating activities is due to higher metal prices, lower finance costs and disciplined cost management. Net cash outflows from investing activities amounted to $609.6 million, reflecting an increase of $29.3 million from the prior period (31 December 2024: $580.3 million outflow). This increase is primarily due to major capital investment, at Cowal, Red Lake and Mungari.
Net cash outflow from financing activities totalled $418.7 million, representing an increase of $277.4 million from the prior comparative period (31 December 2024: $141.3 million inflow). This increase is primarily attributable to the repayment of $280.0 (31 December 2024: $ 15.0 million) million of term debt facilities ("Facilities F & G") in the period. Dividends paid during the period totalled $116.1 million (31 December 2024: $ 99.4 million) .

Financial Performance (continued)
Taxation
During the half-year, the Group made net income tax payments of $240.6 million (31 December 2024: $70.9 million) and recognised an income tax expense of $353.4 million (31 December 2024: $154.5 million ). The higher payments and expense relate to the significant improvement in the financial performance.
Financing
Total finance costs for the half-year were $70.9 million (31 December 2024: $77.8 million). Included in total finance costs are interest expense of $32.2 million (31 December 2024: $46.6 million), amortisation of debt establishment costs of $6.7 million (31 December 2024: $1.1 million), discount unwinding on mine rehabilitation liabilities of $11.7 million (31 December 2024: $8.9 million), interest expense on lease liability unwinding of $2.0 million (31 December 2024: $2.4 million) and interest unwinding on the streaming arrangement with Triple Flag of $18.3 million (31 December 2024: $18.8 million).
The decrease in interest expense is mainly as a result of lower average interest bearing liabilities during the period following the repayment of $280.0 million of term facilities. Evolution's weighted average borrowing cost remains low at 4.5%. The USPP issuances are all at fixed rates with an average rate of 4.47% and have currency swaps in place to remove the impact of foreign exchange and interest rate movements. The term dates and the outstanding balances on each debt facility as at 31 December 2025 are set out below:

The USPP balance at the closing exchange rate of 0.6693 as at 31 December 2025 is $1,419.3 million. After deducting the net balance sheet derivative position of $96.1 million and adding the gross cumulative hedge reserve balance of $5.4 million, the resulting net balance is $1,328.6 million. This aligns closely with the USPP balance at hedged values of $1,329.0 million.
Dividends
The Company's dividend policy is to pay a dividend based on group cash flow generated during the period. The Group's free cash flow is defined as cash flow before debt and dividends and mergers and acquisitions. The Directors assess the Group cash flow and outlook for the business with the intention to return excess cash to shareholders and targeting a level around 50% of annual Group cash flow.
The Board has confirmed that the Group is in a sound position to meet its commitment under the policy to pay an interim fully franked dividend for the current period of 20.0 cents per share. The interim dividend will be paid on 2 April 2026. Evolution Mining Limited shares will trade excluding entitlement to the dividend on 3 March 2026, with the record date being 4 March 2026.
The Dividend Reinvestment Plan ("DRP") will apply to the FY26 interim dividend with no discount.

Evolution Mining Limited Directors' Report 31 December 2025
Financial Performance (continued)
Significant changes in the state of affairs
There were no significant changes in the nature of the activities of the Group during the period, other than those included in the Key Highlights.
Further information on likely developments in the operations of the Group and the expected results of operations have not been included in this Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Report because the Directors believe it would be likely to result in unreasonable prejudice to the Group.
Events occurring after the reporting period
On 10 February 2026, the Group announced that it had entered into an amended and restated metal purchase and sale agreement with Triple Flag International Ltd. ('Triple Flag'). The new terms, which are in addition to the already existing stream arrangement terms with Triple Flag, relate to E44 mine development at Northparkes. Under the terms of the agreement, the Group will receive, by way of refundable deposit (conditional on the events outlined below), an additional advance amount of US$84.3 million (‘Additional Advance Amount’), payable on 15 December, 2026, in consideration for future deliveries of gold and silver produced from the E44 mine, as follows:
-
deliveries of gold equal to 20.0% of payable gold production from E44 (25% of 80% attributable interest)
-
deliveries of silver equal to 30.0% of payable silver production from E44 (37.5% of 80% attributable interest)
The agreement also includes a requirement that the Group deliver Triple Flag minimum cumulative quantities of gold and silver from E44 between FY31 and FY38 (‘Minimum Cumulative Delivery Obligation’).
The Group is entitled to ongoing cash payments from Triple Flag equivalent to 10% of the prevailing spot prices for the ounces of gold and silver delivered from E44 under the stream.
In the event the Group has not made a final investment decision on E44 by 31 December 2029, the Additional Advance Amount plus a compensation payment will become refundable at the Group’s election and, if so elected, the Minimum Cumulative Delivery Obligation will be terminated as a result.
In the event the Group has not elected to refund the Additional Advance Amount, from January 2030 onwards, Triple Flag can elect for any uncredited balance of the Additional Advance Amount to be refunded. In this circumstance, Triple Flag’s entitlement to any minerals from E44 will be fully extinguished including in relation to the Minimum Cumulative Delivery Obligation as a result.
On 10 February 2026, the Board approved two key new projects into execution. These include the E22 block cave mine at Northparkes, which will be a major production source for the next decade, and the development of a near-surface, high grade orebody at Ernest Henry known as the Bert project.
On 30 January and 6 February 2026, the Group, through its subsidiary Evolution Mining Exploration and Development (Canada) Ltd, signed agreements to acquire two Canadian exploration rights further increasing the Group's exploration portfolio in the country.
Refer to Note 4 - Dividends for the interim dividend recommended since the end of the reporting period.
No other matter or circumstance has occurred during the period that has significantly affected, or may have significantly affect, the operations of the Group, the results of those operations or state of affairs of the Group or economic entity in subsequent financial years.

Business performance
This section highlights the key indicators on how the Group performed during the half-year.
1 Performance by mine
(a) Description of segments
The Group has identified its operating segments based on the internal reports that are reviewed and used by the Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Operating Officer and Chief Technical Officer, (the chief business decision makers) in assessing performance and in determining the allocation of resources.
The Group’s operational mine sites and exploration are each treated as individual operating segments. Management monitors the operating results of its business units separately for the purpose of making decisions about resource allocation and performance assessment.
The corporate segment includes share-based payment expenses, other metal spot sales and purchases and other corporate expenditures supporting the business during the period.
Included in Northparkes revenue are metal stream related transactions (see Note 12 Deferred revenue).
Segment performance is evaluated based on earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA). Underlying EBITDA also excludes financial items not considered to be contributing to underlying profit such as transaction, integration and restructuring costs and gains or losses resulted from acquisition and divestment of subsidiaries.
The Group’s operations are conducted in the mining industry in Australia and Canada. Red Lake is in Canada, and the revenue generated by Red Lake is outside of Australia.

2 Revenue and expenses (continued)
Recognition and measurement - revenue from contracts with customers
The Group generates sales revenue primarily from the performance obligation to deliver goods such as gold and concentrate to the buyer. Revenue from contracts with customers is recognised when control of the goods are transferred to the customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Group expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Shipping service in relation to certain concentrate sales is treated as a separate performance obligation since the services are provided solely to facilitate the sale of the goods that the Group produces. Revenue in relation to shipping service is recognised over time as the service is provided.
For gold doré sales, revenue is recognised at the point where the doré leaves the gold room at the Group's mine site to the buyer, or where gold metal credits are transferred to the customer's account. For concentrate sales, revenue is recognised generally when the commodity is loaded into the vessel for shipment in the case of Red Lake and Northparkes. In the case of Ernest Henry, revenue is recognised when the customer takes control of the concentrate.
The terms of metal in concentrate sales contracts with third parties contain provisional pricing arrangements whereby the final selling price for metal in concentrate is based on prevailing average monthly prices on a specified future period after shipment to the customer (quotation period). Adjustments to the sales price occur based on movements in quoted market prices up to the final settlement price specified in the sales contracts. The period between provisional invoicing and final settlement is typically one to four months. Revenue on provisionally priced sales is recognised based on the estimated fair value of the total consideration receivable.
Recognition and measurement - deferred revenue
Deferred revenue arises in the event that payment is received from customers before a sale meets criteria for revenue recognition. The accounting for streaming arrangements is dependent on the facts and terms of the streaming arrangement. Revenue from streaming arrangements is recognised when the customer obtains control of the gold and/or silver metal or when ounces are delivered into the bullion account of the customer.
The Group identified significant financing components related to its streaming arrangement resulting from a difference in the timing of the acquisition of stream liability and delivery of the metal. Interest expense on deferred revenue is recognised in finance costs.
An adjustment is made to the transaction price per unit each time there is a change in the underlying production profile of Northparkes (typically in the second half of each financial year). The change in the transaction price per unit results in a cumulative true-up adjustment to revenue in the period in which the change is made, reflecting the new production profile expected to be delivered under the streaming agreement. A corresponding cumulative true-up adjustment is made to interest expense, reflecting the impact of the change in the deferred revenue balance. Refer to Note 12 for details.
Accounting estimates and judgements
Stream arrangement with Triple Flag
Significant judgement is required in determining the expected delivery of ounces over the term of the Streaming Agreement and their associated cash flows. In undertaking this review, management of the Group is required to make significant estimates of, amongst other things, discount rates, future production volumes, and reserve and resource quantities. These estimates are subject to various risks and uncertainties which may ultimately have an effect on the deferred revenue recorded related to the Streaming Agreement. Refer to Note 12 (Deferred revenue) for further details.

3 The $24.6 million recognised during the period relates to the fair value remeasurement of contingent consideration payable in connection with the Northparkes acquisition. The increase reflects the rise in copper prices, which has resulted in a higher expected payment.

4 The Group updated the presentation within the Property, Plant and Equipment note for the half-year ended 31 December 2025 to separately present Capital work in progress from Plant and Equipment. Accordingly, amounts previously included within Plant and Equipment have been reclassified to Capital work in progress, resulting in an opening Capital work in progress balance of $1,214.6 million (previously reported as $ 584.8 Million as of 30 June 2025) being presented as a separate column, with no change to net book values presented on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.
5 Reclassifications during the half-year refer to movements from Capital Work in Progress (CWIP) to Freehold Land (FL) and Plant & Equipment (PE) while transfers refer to movements from CWIP to Mine Development (MD). Key movements included: Mungari ($256.9m to PE and $5.0m to MD), Cowal ($75.6m to PE and $9.6m to FL), Ernest Henry ($78.4m to PE and $70.0m to MD), Northparkes ($14.4m to PE and $3.0m to FL) and Red Lake ($6.7m to PE).

The USPP balance at the closing exchange rate of 0.6693 as at 31 December 2025 is $1,419.3 million. After deducting the net balance sheet derivative position of $96.1 million and adding the gross cumulative hedge reserve balance of $5.4 million, the resulting net balance is $1,328.6 million. This aligns closely with the USPP balance at hedged values of $1,329.0 million.
As per the terms of the Syndicated Facility Agreement and each USPP Note and Guarantee Agreement, the Group is required to comply with the following financial covenants which are tested at the end of each annual and interim reporting period:
-
the tangible net worth ratio must not be greater than 0.5 to 1,
-
the leverage ratio must not be greater than 2.5 to 1, and
-
the interest cover ratio must not be less than 3.5 to 1.
(together the "Financial Covenants").
The Group has complied with the Financial Covenants throughout the reporting period. There are no indications that the Group will face difficulties complying with the Financial Covenants when they are next tested as at 30 June 2026.
(a) Secured liabilities and assets pledged as security
Lease liabilities are effectively secured as the rights to the leased assets recognised in the financial statements revert to the lessor in the event of default.
Recognition and measurement
Interest bearing liabilities are initially recognised at fair value less directly attributable transaction costs incurred and subsequently measured at amortised cost. Gains and losses are recognised in the Consolidated Statement of Profit or Loss when the liabilities are derecognised.

10 Equity and reserves
(a) Contributed equity
Movements in ordinary share capital
Ordinary shares are fully-paid and have no par value. They carry one vote per share and the rights to dividends. They bear no special terms or conditions affecting income or capital entitlements of the shareholders and are classified as equity.
| Number of shares |

Restatement of opening contributed equity
The opening balance of contributed equity has been restated by $77.7 million being the value of shares issued under the Dividend Reinvestment Plan which satisfied the FY25 interim dividend paid in April 2025. A corresponding reduction in retained earnings has also been recognised. These restatements have no impact on total equity or profit for the period.

Recognition and measurement
Equity Investments at fair value
Changes in the fair value of equity investments are presented and accumulated in a separate reserve within equity and not through profit or loss. Fair value has been determined based on quoted market prices at balance date (level 1 valuation methodology). On disposal of these equity investments, any related balance within the FVOCI reserve is reclassified to retained earnings. These equity instruments are not held for trading but rather intended to be held over the long-term as strategic investments and the group considers this classification to be more relevant.

| Total cross currency interest rate swaps | 96,143 | 75,545 |
Recognition and measurement
Hedging Instruments
The Group entered into derivative financial instruments (fixed to fixed cross currency interest rate swap contracts) to manage its exposure to foreign exchange rate risk arising from the US private placements. Under the cross currency interest rate swap interest rate contracts (CCIRS), Evolution agrees to exchange the fixed USD and fixed AUD interest amounts calculated on agreed notional principal amounts. Such contracts enable Evolution to mitigate the exposure to cash flow variability arising from changes in foreign exchange rates.
Evolution designates the CCIRS contracts as cash flow hedges. As the critical terms of the CCIRS contracts and their corresponding hedged items are the same, Evolution performs a qualitative assessment of effectiveness and it is expected that the value of the CCIRS contracts and the value of the corresponding hedged items will systematically change in opposite direction in response to movements in the underlying foreign exchange rates. The main source of hedge ineffectiveness in these hedge relationships is the effect of the counterparty and Evolution’s own credit risk on the fair value of the CCIRS contracts, which is not reflected in the fair value of the hedged item attributable to the change in foreign exchanges rates.

On 15 December 2023, the Group completed the acquisition of 80% interest in Northparkes Copper-Gold Mine (“Northparkes”) from CMOC. As part of the acquisition, the Group assumed CMOC’s obligations under the Triple Flag Metal Purchase and Sale Agreement (“Streaming Arrangement”). As per the initial Streaming Agreement between CMOC and Triple Flag, CMOC received an upfront cash payment US$550 million. The upfront payment is not repayable, and the Group is obligated to deliver gold and silver based on Northparkes’ production. Under the terms of the agreement, Triple Flag is entitled to:
-
deliveries of gold equal to 54.0% of payable gold production from Northparkes (67.5% of 80% attributable interest) until 630,000 ounces have been delivered to Triple Flag, and 27.0% of payable gold production thereafter (33.75% of 80% attributable interest).
-
deliveries of silver equal to 80.0% of payable silver production from Northparkes (100.0% of 80% attributable interest) until 9,000,000 ounces have been delivered to Triple Flag, and 40.0% of payable silver production thereafter (50.0% of 80% attributable interest).
The Group is entitled to ongoing cash payments from Triple Flag equivalent to 10% of the prevailing spot prices for the ounces of gold and silver delivered under the stream. At the date of the acquisition, the streaming liability was fair valued at $600.0 million (US$403.6 million) and accounted for as deferred revenue. Deferred revenue is increased as interest expense is recognised based on the discounting of the cash flows arising from the expected delivery of ounces under the streaming arrangement. The amount by which the deferred revenue balance is reduced and recognised into revenue is based on the ounces of gold and silver delivered under the stream, similar to the units-of-production method. During the period, the Group delivered 10,309 ounces of gold and 148,443 ounces of silver to Triple Flag.
8 A change in the underlying profile at Northparkes resulted in an update to the transaction price per unit, leading to a cumulative catch-up adjustment recognised through
revenue

Risk and unrecognised Items
This section of the notes discusses the Group’s exposure to various risks and shows how these could affect the Group’s financial position and performance as well as providing information on items that are not recognised in the financial statements as they do not (yet) satisfy the recognition criteria.
13 Contingent liabilities and contingent assets
(a) Contingent liabilities
The Group had contingent liabilities at 31 December 2025, which are recognised on the balance sheet, in respect of:
(i) Contingent consideration payable - Red Lake and Northparkes The Group has recognised contingent consideration liabilities on the purchase consideration of Red Lake and Northparkes amounting to $59.6 million and $53.1 million respectively.
The Group has the following contingent liabilities for which no amounts are recognised on balance sheet at 31 December 2025:
(ii) Claims
In December 2024, a class action was filed in the Federal Court of Australia against Evolution Mining Limited. The class action alleges that the Group failed to comply with its disclosure obligations and engaged in misleading and deceptive conduct during the period July 2021 to June 2022 in respect of disclosures primarily relating to the Red Lake Operations. The amount of damages sought has not yet been specified by the applicant. The proceedings are currently in the early stages before the Court. The Group considers that it all times complied with its disclosure obligations and will vigorously defend the proceedings.
(iii) Guarantees
The Group has provided bank guarantees in favour of various government authorities and service providers with respect to site restoration, contractual obligations and premises at 31 December 2025. The total of these guarantees at 31 December 2025 was $305.4 million with various financial institutions (30 June 2025: $300.8 million).
14 Gold delivery commitments

Gold delivery commitments relate to forward sales relating to the Mungari mill expansion Project. The counterparties to the physical gold delivery contracts are Australia and New Zealand Banking Group Limited ("ANZ"), Westpac Banking Corporation (“WBC”), and ING Group ("ING"). Contracts are settled on a quarterly basis by the physical delivery of gold per the banks instructions. The contracts are accounted for as sale contracts with revenue recognised once the gold has been delivered to ANZ, NAB, WBC, CBA, ING or one of their agents. The physical gold delivery contracts are considered a contract to sell a non-financial item and is therefore out of the scope of AASB 9 Financial Instruments . As a result no derivatives are required to be recognised. The Group has no other gold sale commitments with respect to its current operations.

Other disclosures
This section covers additional financial information and mandatory disclosures.
15 Events occurring after the reporting period
On 10 February 2026, the Group announced that it had entered into an amended and restated metal purchase and sale agreement with Triple Flag International Ltd. ('Triple Flag'). The new terms, which are in addition to the already existing stream arrangement terms with Triple Flag, relate to E44 mine development at Northparkes. Under the terms of the agreement, the Group will receive, by way of refundable deposit (refundable based on the events outlined below), an additional advance amount of US$84.3 million (‘Additional Advance Amount’), payable on 15 December, 2026, in consideration for future deliveries of gold and silver produced from the E44 mine, as follows:
-
deliveries of gold equal to 20.0% of payable gold production from E44 (25% of 80% attributable interest)
-
deliveries of silver equal to 30.0% of payable silver production from E44 (37.5% of 80% attributable interest)
The agreement also includes a requirement that the Group deliver Triple Flag minimum cumulative quantities of gold and silver from E44 between FY31 and FY38 (‘Minimum Cumulative Delivery Obligation’).
The Group is entitled to ongoing cash payments from Triple Flag equivalent to 10% of the prevailing spot prices for the ounces of gold and silver delivered from E44 under the stream.
In the event the Group has not made a final investment decision on E44 by 31 December 2029, the Additional Advance Amount plus a compensation payment will become refundable at the Group’s election and, if so elected, the Minimum Cumulative Delivery Obligation will be terminated as a result.
In the event the Group has not elected to refund the Additional Advance Amount, from January 2030 onwards, Triple Flag can elect for any uncredited balance of the Additional Advance Amount to be refunded. In this circumstance, Triple Flag’s entitlement to any minerals from E44 will be fully extinguished including in relation to the Minimum Cumulative Delivery Obligation as a result.
On 10 February 2026, the Board approved two key new projects into execution. These include the E22 block cave mine at Northparkes, which will be a major production source for the next decade, and the development of a near-surface, high grade orebody at Ernest Henry known as the Bert project.
On 30 January and 6 February 2026, the Group, through its subsidiary Evolution Mining Exploration and Development (Canada) Ltd, signed agreements to acquire two Canadian exploration rights further increasing the Group's exploration portfolio in the country.

Responsibilities of the directors for the half-year financial report
The directors of the Company are responsible for the preparation of the half-year financial report, in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 , including giving a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the half-year financial report that is free from material misstatement whether due to fraud or error.

Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the half-year financial report based on our review.

A review of a half-year financial report consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
