Effective November 1, 2024, MPSA has agreed with KPMC to suspend interest accruals and payments up to twelve months. The modification was on an arm's lengths basis and deemed to be non-substantial under IFRS 9, and resulted in an adjustment to the carrying amount of the liability of $100 million, which has been recorded in net earnings. Finance cost has continued to be accreted, applying the effective interest method under IFRS 9.

As at September 30, 2025, the accrual for interest payable is $422 million (December 31, 2024: $340 million) and is included in the carrying value of the amount owed to the joint venture, as this has been deferred under the loan agreement. Amounts

a) Franco-Nevada Precious Metal Stream Arrangement

The Company commenced the recognition of delivery obligations under the terms of the Franco Nevada precious metal stream arrangement in June 2019 following the first sale of copper concentrate by Cobre Panamá. The Company uses refinery-backed credits as the mechanism for satisfying its delivery obligations under the arrangement. The Company's Cobre Panamá mine was placed into a phase of P&SM in November 2023. Following the approval of the Preservation and Safe Management plan in the second quarter of 2025, MPSA began exporting the copper concentrate in June 2025, and the remaining product was exported in the three months ended September 30, 2025 (Refer to Note 20). In the nine months ended September 30, 2025, $37 million was delivered under the stream the cost of which are presented net within sales revenues (nine months ended September 30, 2024: $nil).

Under the terms of the agreement, the Company received an upfront cash payment of $1.0 billion in exchange for future deliveries of gold linked to copper production from the Kansanshi Mine in Zambia.

The Key terms of the agreement are as follows.

  • Gold deliveries are based on copper production at Kansanshi, with stepdown terms:

75 ounces of gold per million pounds of recovered copper until 425,000 ounces are delivered;
55 ounces per million pounds for the next 225,000 ounces;
45 ounces per million pounds thereafter.

  • Ongoing production payments from Royal Gold are:
  • 20% of the prevailing spot gold price per ounce delivered;
  • Increasing to 35% upon achieving either:
  • A BB senior unsecured debt rating from Fitch or S&P, or
  • A net leverage ratio, as defined in the agreement, of less than or equal to 2.25 times over three consecutive quarters, starting from the first quarter of 2026.

  • Acceleration options allow the Company to reduce delivery thresholds by up to 30%, subject to financial and operational conditions.

Management has determined that under the terms of the agreements the Company meets the 'own-use' exemption criteria under IFRS 9: Financial Instruments. The Company retains significant business risk relating to the operation of the mine and as such has accounted for the proceeds received as deferred revenue. Although the acceleration feature represents an embedded derivative, the value of this derivative is not material.

c) Copper prepayment agreements

The Company has entered into two copper prepayment agreements to date with Jiangxi Copper. The agreements signed February 15, 2024, and April 23, 2025, are both $500 million 3-year copper prepayment agreements providing for the delivery of 50kt of copper anode per annum from Kansanshi payable at market prices with the prepaid amounts reducing in line with deliveries over the second and third years.

The Company's reportable operating segments are Cobre Panamá, Kansanshi and Trident. Each of the reportable segments report information separately to the CEO, the chief operating decision maker.

The Corporate & other segment includes the Company's remaining operations, Guelb Moghrein, Las Cruces, Çayeli, Pyhäsalmi and Ravensthorpe, previously reported separately, the metal marketing division which purchases and sells third party material, and the exploration projects. The Corporate & other segment is responsible for the evaluation and acquisition of new mineral properties, regulatory reporting, treasury and finance and corporate administration.

The Company's operations are subject to seasonal aspects, in particular the rainy season in Zambia. The rainy season in Zambia generally starts in November and continues through April, with the heaviest rainfall normally experienced in the months of January, February and March. As a result of the rainy season, mine pit access and the ability to mine ore is lower in the first quarter of the year than other quarters and the cost of mining is higher.

1 Commodity products are sold under pricing arrangements where final prices are set at a specified future date based on market commodity prices. Changes between the prices recorded upon recognition of revenue and the final price due to fluctuations in commodity market prices give rise to an embedded derivative in the accounts receivable related to the provisionally priced sales contracts.
2 For the nine months ended September 30, 2025 a fair value (loss) of $63 million has been recognized on derivatives designated as hedged instruments through accumulated other comprehensive loss. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges is recognized in other comprehensive loss.
3 Other derivative instruments related to provisionally priced sales contracts are classified as fair value through profit or loss and recorded at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized as a component of cost of sales.
4 Investments held by the Company are held at fair value through other comprehensive income.
5 The fair value of financial assets and liabilities measured at amortized cost is comparable to the carrying value due to the short term to maturities or due to the rates of interest approximating market rates.

1 Commodity products are sold under pricing arrangements where final prices are set at a specified future date based on market commodity prices. Changes between the prices recorded upon recognition of revenue and the final price due to fluctuations in commodity market prices give rise to an embedded derivative in the accounts receivable related to the provisionally priced sales contracts.
2 For the year ended December 31, 2024 a fair value gain of $112 million has been recognized on derivatives designated as hedged instruments through accumulated other comprehensive income. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges is recognized in other comprehensive income. The time value of hedges for the year ended December 31, 2024, of $50 million is also recognized in other comprehensive income.
3 Other derivative instruments related to provisionally priced sales contracts are classified as fair value through profit or loss and recorded at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized as a component of cost of sales.
4 Investments held by the Company are held at fair value through other comprehensive income.
5 The fair value of financial assets and liabilities measured at amortized cost is comparable to the carrying value due to the short term to maturities or due to the rates of interest approximating market rates.

Fair values

The fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

  • Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
  • Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.
  • Level 3: Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data.

1 Futures for copper, nickel, gold and zinc were purchased on the London Metal Exchange ("LME") and London Bullion Market and have direct quoted prices, therefore these contracts are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.
2 The Company's derivative instruments are valued by the Company's brokers using pricing models based on active market prices. All forward swap contracts held by the Company are OTC and therefore the valuation models require the use of assumptions concerning the amount and timing of estimated future cash flows and discount rates using inputs which can generally be verified and do not involve significant management judgment. Such instruments are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Derivative assets are included within other assets on the balance sheet and derivative liabilities are included within provisions and other liabilities on the balance sheet.
3 The Company's investments in marketable equity securities are classified within Level 1 and Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The investments classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy are valued using quoted market prices in active markets. The fair value of the marketable equity securities is calculated as the quoted market price of the marketable security multiplied by the quantity of shares held by the Company. The investments in equity securities in non-public companies are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy as the valuation is based on unobservable inputs, supported by little or no market activity.
4 For the nine months ended September 30, 2025 a fair value loss of $63 million has been recognized on derivatives designated as hedged instruments through accumulated other comprehensive loss. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges is recognized in other comprehensive loss.

Panama

Introduction

On March 8, 2023, MPSA and the Republic of Panama announced they had reached agreement on the terms and conditions of a refreshed concession contract ("Refreshed Concession Contract"). MPSA and the Government of Panama ("GOP") signed the Refreshed Concession Contract on June 26, 2023, and it was subsequently countersigned by the National Comptroller of Panama. The GOP cabinet approved the amended terms of the Refreshed Concession Contract on October 10, 2023, and MPSA and the Republic entered into the agreement the next day. On October 20, 2023, the National Assembly in Panama approved Bill 1100, being the proposal for approval of the Refreshed Concession Contract for the Cobre Panamá mine. On the same day, President Laurentino Cortizo sanctioned Bill 1100 into Law 406 and this was subsequently published in the Official Gazette.

Panama Constitutional Proceedings and Mining Moratorium.

On October 26, 2023, a claim was lodged with the Supreme Court of Justice of Panama asserting that Law 406 was unconstitutional. MPSA was not a party to that proceeding. The petitioner argued that Law 406, which gave legal effect to the Refreshed Concession Contract, was unconstitutional.

On November 28, 2023, the Supreme Court issued a ruling declaring Law 406 unconstitutional and stating that the effect of the ruling is that the Refreshed Concession Contract no longer exists. The ruling was subsequently published in the Official Gazette on December 2, 2023. The Supreme Court did not order the closure of the Cobre Panamá mine.

On December 19, 2023, the (now former) Minister for Commerce and Industry announced plans for Cobre Panamá following the ruling of the Supreme Court. The validity of Panama's Mineral Resources Code which was established more than 50 years ago was reiterated by the Minister given the absence of retroactivity of the Supreme Court ruling. As part of these plans, a temporary phase of environmental Preservation and Safe Management would be established during which intervening period independent audits, review and planning activities would be undertaken. The Company is of the view,

supported by the advice of legal counsel, that it has acquired rights with respect to the operation of the Cobre Panamá project, as well as rights under international law.

On May 30, 2025, Panama issued a resolution approving the Preservation and Safe Management plan proposed in 2024 by Minera Panamá S.A. ("MPSA"). That plan includes the sale and export of the copper concentrate and also provides for the import of fuel and restart of Cobre Panamá's thermoelectric power plant. MPSA began exporting the copper concentrate in June 2025, which completed in the three months ended September 30, 2025.

Arbitration Proceedings

Following engagement with the GOP's legal counsel, First Quantum has agreed to discontinue the ICC arbitration proceedings. The Company has also agreed to suspend the Canada-Panama FTA arbitration.

  1. On November 29, 2023, Minera Panamá S.A. ("MPSA") initiated arbitration before the ICC's International Court of Arbitration pursuant to the ICC's Rules of Arbitration and Clause 46 of the Refreshed Concession Contract, to protect its rights under Panamanian law and the Refreshed Concession Contract that the GOP agreed to in October 2023. The arbitration clause of the contract provides for arbitration in Miami, Florida. On March 31, 2025, following engagement with the GOP's legal counsel, MPSA agreed to discontinue its ICC arbitration.

  2. On November 14, 2023, First Quantum submitted a notice of intent to the GOP initiating the consultation period required under the FTA. First Quantum submitted an updated notice of intent on February 7, 2024. First Quantum is entitled to seek any and all relief appropriate in arbitration, including but not limited to damages and reparation for Panama's breaches of the Canada-Panama FTA. These breaches include, among other things, the GOP's failure to permit MPSA to lawfully operate the Cobre Panamá mine prior to the Supreme Court's November 2023 decision, and the GOP's pronouncements and actions concerning closure plans and P&SM at Cobre Panamá. On March 31, 2025, following engagement with the GOP's legal counsel, First Quantum agreed to suspend the FTA arbitration. To effectuate the suspension, on April 2, 2025 First Quantum filed a request for arbitration with the International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes ("ICSID"), and notified ICSID of the agreed-to suspension. Although the FTA arbitration continues to be suspended, a panel of three arbitrators was formally constituted on September 10, 2025.
