OPERATIONS

PRODUCTION, COSTS AND NOTIONAL CASHFLOW

Perseus's three operating gold mines, Yaouré and Sissingué in Côte d'Ivoire, and Edikan in Ghana, demonstrated strong performance in Q3 FY26 producing a combined total of 107,144 ounces of gold, 21% more than the 88,888 ounces achieved in Q2 FY26. Higher production was achieved across all three operating gold mines.

The weighted average production cost was US$1,238 per ounce, while the weighted average All-in-Site Cost (AISC) was US$1,748 per ounce. The weighted average AISC for the quarter was lower than the Q2 FY26 AISC of US$1,800 attributable to higher production.

Gold sales from all three operations totalled 96,260 ounces or 9,653 ounces more than in Q2 FY26 attributable to higher production. The weighted average realised gold price was US$4,143 per ounce, US$706 per ounce more than the Q2 FY26 price of US$3,437 per ounce.

Perseus's average cash margin for the quarter was US$2,395 per ounce, resulting in notional operating cashflow of US$252 million from all operations. This was US$107 million higher than in Q2 FY26.

FUEL SUPPLY CONDITIONS AND OPERATIONAL IMPACT

The Group continues to closely monitor fuel supply availability, consumption levels and inventory positions to mitigate the risk of operational disruption in the short to medium term.

Perseus is working with its long-standing fuel suppliers in the region to assess any material impacts of the current Iran conflict. There were no operational disruptions to the Group's activities during Q3 FY26, and fuel supply is expected to be sufficient to support operations. Refer to the "Group Gold Production and Cost Guidance" section for the sensitivities of diesel price to AISC.

YAOURÉ GOLD MINE, CÔTE D'IVOIRE

Refer to Table 4 below for details of Yaouré Gold Mine's operating and financial parameters during Q3 FY26 for the open pit operations and Table 5 for the CMA Underground development statistics.

YAOURÉ OPEN PIT

During the quarter, Yaouré total material mined increased to 8.5 million tonnes, up 18% quarter on quarter primarily due to increased available mining areas. The ore tonnes mined increased by 21% to 1.35 million tonnes in line with the total material mined increase, coupled with a slightly lower strip ratio. Gold grade also improved, driven by the Yaouré Stage 1 ore access per the mine plan.

Yaouré produced 34,960 ounces of gold, up 9% quarter on quarter at a production cost of US$1,564 per ounce and an AISC of US$2,049 per ounce. The increase in production was largely attributable to higher head grade of 1.29g/t compared to 1.18g/t in Q2 FY26.

Ore tonnes milled totalled 905,895, in line with previous quarter performance. The mill run-time was higher at 92.0%, compared to 90.1% for the December quarter due to less unplanned maintenance in the current quarter. Mill throughput averaged 456 tph, consistent with prior quarter's 455 tph. Gold recovery was marginally higher at 93.4% compared to 93.2% in Q2 FY26.

The production cost and AISC was marginally lower than Q2 FY26 primarily due to lower mining costs per tonne as a result of the higher total material mined impact on fixed costs. Processing costs were higher attributable to planned mill reline maintenance and lower grid power availability. Sustaining capital was lower due to timing of deliveries and the bulk of the tailings relocation project earthworks being completed in previous quarter.

Gold sales of 36,285 ounces were 4% or 1,450 ounces more than the prior quarter at a weighted average realised gold price of US$4,006 per ounce generating an average cash margin of US$1,957 per ounce. This resulted in notional cash flow of US$68 million compared to US$37 million achieved in Q2 FY26.

In FY26 to date, Yaouré produced 122,410 ounces of gold from open pit and underground operations, representing 41% of Perseus's total gold production, at an AISC of US$1,671 per ounce, generating notional cashflows of US$203 million during the period.

The royalties from FY26 Q3 are being paid at the rate including the additional 2%.

CMA UNDERGROUND

CMA underground development commenced in Q1 FY26 with the first blast of the Pauline portal followed by the Blika, Sika and Assanou declines in Q2 FY26. A total advance to date of 2,399 metres has been achieved across the four portals. In January 2026 a key milestone was achieved with first ore mined from the Blika Portal. Stopping operations are anticipated to commence in early Q4 FY26.

During the quarter, development activities at CMA Underground resulted in the mining of 31,126 tonnes of ore, of which 20,760 tonnes were milled, producing 1,606 ounces of gold. Gold sales totalled 955 ounces at an average realised price

ORE RESERVE TO MILL RECONCILIATION

Table 5 shows the reconciliation of processed ore tonnes, grade and contained gold relative to the Yaouré Ore Rserve.

In Q3 FY26, mill tonnes were 49% above reserve, while grade was 7% lower, resulting in a positive variance in contained gold of 39%. Grade performance improved compared to the previous quarter through focussed mining improvements.

The higher tonnes reflect additional ore defined through grade control in the Yaouré open pit and underground development extending beyond the reserve model. The lower grade reflects mining dilution in the Yaouré open pit and differences between designed and actual mined shapes in the underground.

The 6-and-12-month trends continue to show strong alignment, with contained gold tracking above reserve. Ongoing improvements in ore control and the progression of underground mining are expected to support more consistent grade performance going forward.

EDIKAN GOLD MINE, GHANA

Table 6 below summarises the key operating and financial parameters recorded at the Edikan Gold Mine during Q3 FY26 and in relevant prior periods.

Total material mined at Edikan was 3.7 million tonnes, up 50% compared to 2.5 million tonnes for Q2 FY26. Ore mined was also higher by 57% due to additional equipment deployment and higher equipment availability and utilisation. Better ground conditions within the Nkosuo pit further contributed to increased material mined.

Edikan produced 45,123 ounces of gold at a production cost of US$980 per ounce and an AISC of US$1,539 per ounce during the quarter. Production was 18% higher than the prior quarter mainly attributable to more tonnes milled, higher head grade and a slightly higher recovery rate. Throughput averaged 952 tph, 6% higher than prior quarter's 896 tph with the treatment of more Nkosuo oxides in the feed blend for the quarter. The head grade of processed ore was 0.84 g/t, up from 0.77 g/t due to less low-grade stockpile blending compared to Q2 FY26. Gold recovery was stable at 88.6% compared to 88.2% achieved in the prior quarter, and mill run-time was 91.6%, compared to 89.1% for the previous quarter due to lost time from the SAG Mill bearing failure in Q2.

Quarter on quarter, Edikan's production cost of US$980 per ounce was lower by 11% and the weighted average AISC of US$1,539 per ounce was in line with the previous quarter. The lower production cost was driven by lower mining and processing costs due to the fixed cost impact of producing 18% more ounces, partly reduced by higher cost of mining deeper benches. The AISC was higher mainly due to higher royalties.

The Government of Ghana implemented a new royalty regime that replaced the flat 5% revenue-based royalty with a sliding-scale structure effective 10 March 2026. Under this framework, royalty rates increase progressively in line with rising gold prices from 5% for gold prices up to US$1,900 per ounce, 6% for gold prices from $1,901 to $2,000 per ounce, increasing 1% for every $500 per ounce increase in gold price above $2,000 per ounce. Royalites are capped at a maximum of 12% when the gold price exceeds US$4,500 per ounce. The gold price for the new regime is based on the average gold market price in the week the sale of gold occurs compared to the previous framework which was based on realised price for each shipment. This change has impacted the royalty costs and AISC for Q3 FY26 compared to the prior quarter. The impact of this recent royalty amendment will be partly offset going forward by:

  • An amendment to the Growth and Sustainability Levy (GSL) rate which was reduced from 3% to 1% of gross revenue which received government approval on 31 March 2026. This amendment results in an effective ~3% gross reduction as the GSL is not tax deductible.
  • Removal of the non-refundable levies totalling 6% levied on the supply of all goods and services.

Gold sales of 43,980 ounces were 18% more than 37,219 ounces in the previous quarter. The weighted average realised gold price of US$4,284 per ounce was achieved compared to US$3,700 per ounce. This was an increase of US$584 per ounce, generating an average cash margin of US$2,746 per ounce and notional cashflow of US$124 million, up 49% quarter on quarter.

For FY26 to date, Edikan produced 116,331 ounces of gold, representing 39% of Perseus's total gold production for the respective period, at an AISC of US$1,556 per ounce, generating notional cashflows of US$264 million over the period.

Fetish and Esuajah North pit cutback projects are progressing with approvals received from the Mineral Commission and Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Mining at Fetish commenced in early Q4.

Table 6: Edikan Quarterly Performance

ORE RESERVE TO MILL RECONCILIATION

Table 7 shows the reconciliation of processed ore tonnes, grade and contained gold relative to the Edikan Ore Reserve.

In Q3 FY26, mill tonnes were in line with reserve (+1%), while grade was 8% lower, resulting in a negative variance in contained gold of 6%. This is lower than Q2, where contained gold was above reserve.

The lower performance is driven by reduced realised grades, with contributing factors including material reclassification and differences between modelled and mined material. Performance is expected to improve as mining progresses into more consistent fresh zones.

The 6 and 12-month trends remain within acceptable ranges, with contained gold tracking within 2% and 5% of reserve, respectively. Continued focus on ore control and reconciliation is expected to support improved alignment going forward.

SISSINGUÉ GOLD COMPLEX, CÔTE D'IVOIRE

Refer to Table 8 below for details of operating and financial performance achieved during Q3 FY26 and relevant prior periods, at the Sissingué Gold Complex. The Complex includes mining and processing operations at the Sissingué Gold Mine, together with satellite mining operations comprising the Bagoé Gold Mine, located approximately 137 kilometres from the Sissingué processing facilities. Mining at Bagoé commenced during the Q2 FY26 at the Antoinette Deposit, following the completion of mining operations at Fimbiasso.

The Complex produced 25,455 ounces of gold during the quarter at a weighted average AISC of US$1,708 per ounce representing a 38% increase in production and a 7% reduction in AISC compared to the previous quarter. This performance was driven by increased tonnes milled and higher ore grade from Bagoé (Antoinette pit). Production costs decreased to US$1,246 per ounce compared to US$1,545 per ounce in the previous quarter. Cost performance improved due to a higher proportion of lower-cost oxide ore, resulting in reduced mining and processing costs compared to fresh ore mining at Fimbiasso in Q2 FY26. The increase in royalty costs reflects the timing of sales, mainly for Bagoé. In addition, the higher gold production impact on fixed costs resulted in lower production costs and AISC.

Total material mined increased by 20% during the quarter primarily due to the ramp-up of operations at Bagoé. The strip ratio remained consistent with the previous quarter at 4.7 resulting in more ore tonnes mined for the quarter.

Mill runtime for the quarter remained stable at 97% in line with the previous quarter performance. Average throughput increased to 215 tph from 184 tph in FY26 Q2 and gold recovery improved to 91.7%, compared with 89.5% in the previous quarter due a higher proportion of oxide ore in the mill feed.

Gold sales were 15,040 ounces at a weighted average realised gold price of US$4,059 per ounce, 26% up compared to US$3,227 per ounce in Q2 FY26. This resulted in a cash margin of US$2,351 per ounce, compared with US$1,383 per ounce in the prior quarter. Notional cash flow generated by the Complex during the quarter was US$60 million compared to US$25 million achieved last quarter.

For FY26 to date, the Complex produced 55,638 ounces of gold, representing 19% of Perseus's total gold production for the respective period, at an AISC of US$1,988 per ounce, generating notional cashflows of US$81 million over the period.

Table 9 shows the reconciliation of processed ore tonnes, grade and contained gold relative to the Sissingué Ore Reserve.

In Q3 FY26, mill tonnes were above reserve by 40%, while grade was 9% lower, resulting in a positive variance in contained gold of 27%.

The improved performance is driven by additional ore tonnes delineated through grade control outside the reserve model, which has compensated for the lower mined grade. Dilution performance has also improved during the quarter, supported by better ore control and mining practices.

The 6 and 12-month trends continue to show improving alignment, with contained gold tracking within 13% and 4% of reserve, respectively. Ongoing focus on ore control and selective mining is expected to maintain this trend.

EXPLORATION

During Q3 FY26, Perseus continued to perform both organic and inorganic activities aimed at making new discoveries and adding to the Company's Mineral Resources and Ore Reserve inventories.

CÔTE D'IVOIRE

YAOURÉ

During the quarter, drilling continued at Yaouré Pit and drilling was carried out at Zain1 South and CMA SW Extension advanced exploration targets, these exploration targets are looking to confirm extensions of mineralization (Refer to Appendix 1, Figure 1.1).

At Yaouré Pit, the drilling program was completed during the quarter with 3,549m drilled across 41 holes. The program increased confidence in the known resources and indicated an extension of mineralization within the potential Ore Reserve pit shell. Similar structures and mineralisation as seen in the current Yaouré Pit continue to be encountered.

As indicated last quarter, drilling at CMA SW was initiated on receiving positive results from field mapping. At CMA SW Extension, 2,991m were drilled in 27 RC holes to assess the extension of the CMA SW mineralisation further to the SW. All assay results were received and indicated that the CMA SW extends along strike to the southwest.

At Zain 1 South, drilling of 2,040m in 16 RC holes demonstrated that there is continuity between Zain 1 and Zain 1 South, with moderate grades. The Zain complex is adjacent to the mill and will provide supplementary oxide feed to the Yaouré plant.

SISSINGUÉ

RC drilling was conducted at Papara (north of Sissingué), with 1,432m completed in 18 RC holes. The program aimed to infill the drill spacing and increase confidence in the previous resources. Assays were pending at the end of the quarter.

There was no drilling on the Bagoé, Fimbiasso and Mahalé concessions during the reporting period.

GHANA

The focus of the work over the quarter was on testing potential targets on the ML and PL concessions. During the current reporting period, generative and target definition activities were conducted at the Edikan tenements with a total of 4,501m (comprising 1,627m of reverse circulation (RC) drilling and 2,874m of diamond drilling (DD)) was completed across 87 drill holes (Refer to Appendix 1, Figure 1.2). Approximately 17 km² were mapped, and 2,696 samples were collected for analysis from all Edikan properties, including 15 mapping samples, 1,768 RC samples, and 591 DD samples, with 322 dedicated to Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QAQC).

Nkotomso PL

Intensive field mapping was conducted on the Nkotomso Prospecting Licence (PL) along significant structural corridors to identify intrusive rock systems. This data is critical for target generation strategies for FY2027. Notably, various granitic rocks and dykes were mapped, some exhibiting mineralisation.

DML Agyakusu PL

Mapping efforts focused on the extensions of the Nkosuo structure near Powuoako, covering approximately 3 km². Several prospective areas were identified for follow-up exploration activities planned for FY2027.

Ayanfuri ML

The exploration focus during this period involved continuing the drilling program proximal to the Fetish pit. A total of 905m of RC drilling was carried out in 71 holes, with 1,045 samples (including 164 QAQC) sent for fire assay analysis.

Mapping continued, focusing on litho-structural data acquisition and assessing gold potential within artisanal mining pits along the Obuasi-Akropong structure at Wampam.

Nanankaw ML

Exploration continued with the AG-Fobinso drilling program aimed at bridging data gaps between the two pits. Drilling totalled 924m (456m RC and 468m DD) across five RDD holes, yielding 785 samples (419 RC and 279 DD, including 84 QAQC) sent for fire assay analysis. A total of 663 assay results (69 QAQC) were received.

Ongoing mapping and prospecting efforts aimed at further litho-structural data collection covered approximately 1.73 km² in known structural corridors.

Nsuaem PL, Agyakusu PL and Domenase PL

On the Nsuaem PL, exploration activities were concentrated on mapping along the Akyease Structure, where the aim was to identify new granitic dyke exposures with low-grade mineralisation for further investigation. Similar mapping exercises were conducted on the Agyakusu PL focused on northern extensions of the AG structure

At Domenase exploration activities progressed with the initiation of a drilling program at Besease, targeting strike extensions of the twin granite formations identified previously. A total of 790m of drilling (266m RC and 524m DD) was completed across 3 RDD holes, producing 687 samples (304 RC and 312 DD, including 121 QAQC) dispatched for fire assay analysis.

TANZANIA

NYANZAGA SPECIAL MINING & PROSPECTING PERMITS

The resource development program for the Tusker and Kilimani deposits was completed during the last quarter and an updated Ore Reserve for Nyanzaga releases during Q3 FY26. There are no outstanding assay results to report (Refer to Appendix 1, Figure 1.3).

A total of 999 soil samples and 39 rock-chip samples were collected on the Ifugandi and Busolwa near-mine exploration targets (PLs 12428/2023 and PLs 11186/2018) with the analytical results are yet to be received as at the end of the quarter.

Detailed geological and structural mapping was conducted along the Ifugandi target. The target consists of WNW trending banded iron formations associated with strong small scale mining activity and soil geochemical anomalous. The trend extends over 70 km to the West up to Geita gold mine.

An exploration drilling program has been designed on the Ifugandi and Busolwa targets. The program comprises 7,400m of reverse circulation drilling which will be partly converted in air-core drilling depending on the results from the recent soil sampling program. The drilling program is planned to be executed during the next quarter.

GREEN FIELDS EXPLORATION, GUINEA

During the quarter, seven applications for reconnaissance permits were submitted. These are short-term exploration permits (6 months, with an option for a 6-month extension), intended for first-pass exploration activities. The applications have been registered, and we are now awaiting official approval to begin work.

EXPLORATION EXPENDITURE

Expenditure on Business Growth for the quarter is summarised in Table 15 below.

Note:
"Operating Margin" is obtained by taking from the gold sales revenue the actual cash costs incurred for the quarter (excluding Sustaining Capital).

CAPITAL MANAGEMENT

Considering Perseus's future expected operating and cash flow requirements, on 28 August $2025^{2}$ the Board unanimously approved a further on-market share buy-back of up to A$100 million of ordinary shares to be completed within 12 months.

As at the end of March, 4,881,530 Perseus shares have been purchased as part of the Board approved buy-back, averaging A$5.39 per share for a total cash outflow of A$26.3 million representing 26% of the buyback. At the date of this report, this position hasn't changed.

GOLD PRICE HEDGING

At the end of the quarter, Perseus had a committed hedge position (Fixed Forwards and Call Options) of 140,000 ounces, equating to approximately $9\%$ of the three-year forecast production, down from $11\%$ in the previous quarter. The weighted average price of the 95,000 Call Options is US$3,692 per ounce.

At the end of the quarter, Perseus also held Put Options covering 210,000 ounces, representing an uncommitted hedge position equivalent to approximately $16\%$ of the three-year forecast production, up from $14\%$ in the previous quarter. These Put Options provide downside protection at US$2,624 per ounce.

The fixed forward position decreased by approximately $36\%$ , from 70,000 ounces to 45,000 ounces, at an average price of US$2,538/oz.

ALL-IN SUSTAINING COST (UNAUDITED)

Figure 4 below illustrates the reconciliation between the Group's All-In-Site-Cost and its All-In-Sustaining-Cost. The All-In-Sustaining-Cost is calculated using ounces sold, as opposed to ounces recovered used for All-In-Site-Costs and includes adjustments for inventory movements (non-cash) as well as the Group's corporate administration overheads (cash).

img-2.jpeg
Figure 4: Reconciliation of Group All-In-Site-Cost to All-In-Sustaining-Cost (US$/ounce)

Included in both the All-In-Site-Cost and All-In-Sustaining-Cost for the quarter is US$4.5 million of costs relating to excess waste stripping. When reporting cost of sales, in line with accepted practice under IFRS, this cost will be capitalised, and the costs amortised over the remainder of the relevant pit life.

CORPORATE

SALE OF MEYAS SAND GOLD PROJECT (MSGP)

On 16 March 2026³ Perseus announced that its wholly owned subsidiary, Perseus Sudan Holdings Pty Ltd, has entered into an SPA to sell Shark (BVI) Inc, which indirectly holds Perseus's 70% Group interest in the MSGP, to Hong Kong Matrix Golden Fortune Mining Limited for a cash consideration of US$260M. The US$260M Purchase Price comprises a US$10M deposit received on signing of the SPA and a payment of US$250M that was received on completion of the transaction, which occurred on Wednesday, 22 April 2026. This transaction followed a lengthy review of the MSGP which included consideration of both development and divestment options. Perseus has formed the view that divestment of the MSGP was best option for at this time. Divestment of the MSGP allows for the re-allocation of internal resources to Perseus's existing internal development opportunities. Proceeds will further strengthen Perseus' superior balance sheet along with consideration of additional capital returns to shareholders. As the MSGP resource and reserve estimates had been reported by Perseus as a foreign estimate, completion of the transaction will not affect Perseus's reported Group JORC resource and reserve estimates.

ACQUISITION OF 9.9% INTEREST IN AURUM RESOURCES LIMITED

On 23 March⁴ Perseus announced it had acquired a relevant interest in 9.9% of the issued shares of Aurum Resources Limited (Aurum) (ASX: AUE) via participation in an Aurum equity raising. Aurum is an emerging mineral development company listed on the ASX. Aurum's key asset is the Boundiali Gold Project, a pre-development and pre-study gold project located in the north of Côte d'Ivoire, West Africa with a reported Ore Resource of 100Mt @ 1.0g/t Au for
