Fortuna Mining Corp.

Notes to Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements

For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024

(Unaudited – Tabular amounts presented in thousands of US dollars, except share and per share amounts)

1.   NATURE OF OPERATIONS

Fortuna Mining Corp. (the “Company”), is a publicly traded company incorporated and domiciled in British Columbia, Canada.

The Company is engaged in precious and base metal mining and related activities in Argentina, Burkina Faso, Côte d’Ivoire, Mexico, Peru and Senegal. The Company operates the open pit Lindero gold mine (“Lindero”) in northern Argentina, the open pit Séguéla gold mine (“Séguéla”) in southwestern Côte d’Ivoire, the underground Caylloma silver, lead, and zinc mine (“Caylloma”) in southern Peru, and the underground and open pit Yaramoko gold mine (“Yaramoko”) in southwestern Burkina Faso, and is developing the Diamba Sud gold project in Senegal. Subsequent to March 31, 2025, the Company entered into a definitive share purchase agreement to sell its 100% interest in Roxgold SANU S.A., which owns and operates the Yaramoko mine. The sale is expected to be completed in the second quarter of 2025 (see Note 28). Additionally, on April 11, 2025, the Company completed the sale of its 100% interest in Compania Minera Cuzcatlan S.A. de C.V. (“Cuzcatlan”), which owns the San Jose mine (see Note 28).

The Company’s common shares are listed on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) under the trading symbol FSM and on the Toronto Stock Exchange (the “TSX”) under the trading symbol FVI.

In January 2025, the Company relocated its head office to Suite 820, 1111 Melville Street, Vancouver, British Columbia V6E 3V6, Canada. As at March 31, 2025, the Company’s registered office was located at Suite 3500, 1133 Melville Street, Vancouver, British Columbia V6E 4E5, Canada.

2.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Statement of Compliance

These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements (“interim financial statements”) have been prepared by management of the Company in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) applicable to the preparation of interim financial statements, including IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. They do not include all the information required for full annual financial statements. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024, which include information necessary for understanding the Company’s business and financial presentation.

Other than as described below, the same accounting policies and methods of computation are followed in these interim financial statements as compared with the most recent annual financial statements.

On May 7, 2025, the Company's Board of Directors approved these interim financial statements for issuance.

Basis of Measurement

These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost basis, except for those assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value (Note 24) at the end of each reporting period.

Adoption of new accounting standards

The Company adopted various amendments to IFRS, which were effective for accounting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2025. These include amendments to IAS 21, Lack of Exchangeability. The impacts of adoption were not material to the Company's interim financial statements.

Notes to Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements

For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024

(Unaudited – Tabular amounts presented in thousands of US dollars, except share and per share amounts)

3.   USE OF ESTIMATES, ASSUMPTIONS, AND JUDGEMENTS

The preparation of these interim financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgements that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the period end date and reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Such judgements and estimates are, by their nature, uncertain. Actual outcomes could differ from these estimates.

The impact of such judgements and estimates are pervasive throughout the interim financial statements, and may require accounting adjustments based on future occurrences. These judgements and estimates are continuously evaluated and are based on management’s experience and knowledge of the relevant facts and circumstances. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised and are accounted for prospectively.

In preparing these interim financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company applied the critical estimates, assumptions and judgements as disclosed in Note 4 of its audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024.

4.   TRADE AND OTHER RECEIVABLES

The Company’s trade receivables from concentrate and doré sales are expected to be collected in accordance with the terms of the existing concentrate and doré sales contracts with its customers. No amounts were past due as at March 31, 2025.

As at March 31, 2025, current Value Added Tax (“VAT”) receivables include $18.6 million (December 31, 2024 - $20.4 million) for Argentina, $nil (December 31, 2024 - $4.3 million) for Mexico, $31.0 million (December 31, 2024 - $22.2 million) for Côte d’Ivoire, and $21.0 million (December 31, 2024 - $20.6 million) for Burkina Faso. An additional $31.6 million (December 31, 2024 - $28.4 million) of VAT receivables are classified as non-current (refer to Note 8).

VAT receivables from the fiscal authorities in Burkina Faso are not in dispute and are deemed to be fully recoverable. The most recent refund was received in August 2024. The Company is following the relevant process in Burkina Faso to recoup the VAT receivables and continues to engage with authorities to accelerate the repayment of the outstanding balance.

The Company has an investment strategy, which includes utilizing certain foreign exchange measures implemented by the Argentine Government, to address its local currency requirements in Argentina. As a result of this strategy, during the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company recorded investment gains of $1.3 million (March 31, 2024 - $2.6 million) from trades in Argentine peso denominated cross-border securities.

(1) In July 2021, the Company completed the acquisition of Roxgold Inc. including its Boussoura exploration property in Burkina Faso. However, in December 2024, the Company confirmed that substantive expenditure on further exploration and evaluation of mineral resources at the Boussoura site is neither budgeted nor planned. As such, no future value is expected from the Boussoura property. Therefore, the carrying amount of the exploration and evaluation asset exceeded its recoverable amount and the Company recorded a write-off of the exploration property of $14.5 million. The Company reversed its deferred tax liability of $1.6 million related to exploration and evaluation assets subsequently to recording a write-off.
(2) In December 2024, the Company concluded a comprehensive review of its capitalized exploration costs associated with mineral properties. This review involved an analysis of drilling meters, exploration costs incurred to date, and an assessment of the likelihood of each prospect becoming part of the Company's mineral reserves. As a result of this review, certain prospects previously classified as depletable at the Séguéla mine were reclassified as non-depletable mineral properties, resulting in a net transfer of $13.7 million from depletable to non-depletable mineral properties. This reclassification reflects the updated assessment of the long-term economic viability and recoverability of mineral resources associated with these prospects and represents a true-up between depletable and non-depletable categories.

22.   ASSETS HELD FOR SALE AND DISCONTINUED OPERATION

(a) Accounting Policy – Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operation

The Company classifies non-current assets and disposal groups as held for sale when their carrying amounts are expected to be recovered principally through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use. Assets or disposal groups classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. Costs to sell are the incremental costs directly attributable to the disposal, excluding finance costs and income tax expense.

Classification as held for sale is appropriate only when the sale is highly probable, the asset or disposal group is available for immediate sale in its present condition, and management is committed to a plan to sell. The sale must be expected to complete within one year from the date of classification, and it must be unlikely that significant changes to or withdrawal of the plan will occur. Property, plant and equipment and intangible assets are not depreciated or amortized once classified as held for sale. Related assets and liabilities are presented separately as current items in the statement of financial position.

A discontinued operation is a component of the Company that has been disposed of or is classified as held for sale and represents a separate major line of business or geographical area of operations. The results of discontinued operations are excluded from continuing operations and are presented as a single amount, net of tax, in the statement of profit or loss.

(b) Accounting Disclosure

On March 31, 2025, the Company was committed to a plan to sell its interest in Cuzcatlan, which owns and operates the San Jose Mine in Oaxaca, Mexico. As a result, the assets and liabilities of Cuzcatlan have been classified as held for sale, and its operating results have been presented as a discontinued operation in the condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

The Company recognized a single amount of post-tax profit or loss from the discontinued operation in the condensed interim consolidated statement of income. Comparative information for the three months ended March 31, 2024, has been restated to reflect the results of the San Jose Mine as a discontinued operation, separately from continuing operations.

If the Company had terminated the agreement on March 31, 2025, and elected not to purchase the service provider’s equipment, it would have been subject to an early termination payment of $15.3 million. If the Company elected to purchase the service provider’s equipment, the early termination amount would be adjusted to exclude equipment depreciation and demobilization of equipment, and only include portion of the monthly management fee and demobilization of personnel.

Additional early termination payments may apply under certain other service agreements, amounting to an approximate cumulative fee of $4.5 million as at March 31, 2025.

(c)    Tax Contingencies

The Company is, from time to time, involved in various tax assessments arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company cannot reasonably predict the likelihood or outcome of these actions. The Company has recognized tax provisions with respect to current assessments received from the tax authorities in the various jurisdictions in which the Company operates, and from any uncertain tax positions identified. For those amounts recognized related to current tax assessments received, the provision is based on management's best estimate of the outcome of those assessments, based on the validity of the issues in the assessment, management's support for their position, and the expectation with respect to any negotiations to settle the assessment. Management re-evaluates the outstanding tax assessments regularly to update their estimates related to the outcome for those assessments taking into account the criteria above.

(Unaudited – Tabular amounts presented in thousands of US dollars, except share and per share amounts)

Pillar Two Global Minimum Tax

On June 30, 2024, the Global Minimum Tax Act (“GMTA”) received royal assent, introducing the Pillar Two global minimum tax regime in Canada. The GMTA is based on the OECD’s Pillar Two Global Anti-Base Erosion (GloBE) model rules and applies to fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2023. The legislation includes the income inclusion rule and a qualified domestic minimum top-up tax, and contains a placeholder for the undertaxed profits rule, which is proposed to be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2024.

The Pillar Two regime applies to multinational enterprise groups with consolidated revenues of at least EUR 750 million in at least two of the four fiscal years immediately preceding a given fiscal year. As the Company exceeded the threshold for a second time in 2024, Pillar Two legislation is applicable to the Company from January 1, 2025.

As at March 31, 2025, Pillar Two legislation has only been enacted in Canada among the jurisdictions in which the Company operates. The Company is in the process of assessing the potential impact of Pillar Two legislation, including the application of the transitional safe harbour rules. No Pillar Two top-up taxes have been recognized in the interim financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

(d)    Other Contingencies

The Company is subject to various investigations and other claims; and legal, labour, and tax proceedings covering matters that arise in the ordinary course of business activities. Each of these matters is subject to various uncertainties, and it is possible that some of these matters may be resolved unfavourably for the Company. Certain conditions may exist as of the date these financial statements are issued that may result in a loss to the Company. None of these matters is expected to have a material effect on the results of operations or financial conditions of the Company.

28.  SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Subsequent events not otherwise mentioned are as follows:

(a) Sale of the San Jose Mine

On April 11, 2025, the Company completed the sale of its 100% interest in Cuzcatlan, which owns the San Jose mine in Oaxaca, Mexico, to JRC, a private Peruvian company. Under the terms of the definitive share purchase agreement, JRC acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of Cuzcatlan in consideration for $6.5 million, which was received on closing. Post closing JRC has paid $1.2 million for prepaid working capital items and tax receivables. The Company also has the right to receive contingent consideration of up to approximately $8.3 million, subject to the completion of certain conditions, of which $4.7 million has been received to date. Furthermore, the Company retains a 1.0% net smelter royalty on production from the San Jose Mine concessions payable after the first 6.1 million ounces of silver and the first 44,000 ounces of gold (or 119,000 gold equivalent ounces) have been mined or extracted from the property.

This transaction supersedes the previously disclosed binding letter agreement for the sale of Cuzcatlan to Minas del Balsas S.A. de C.V., which did not proceed.

(b) Sale of the Yaramoko Mine

On April 11, 2025, the Company entered into a definitive share purchase agreement to sell all of its interest in Roxgold Sanu, which owns and operates the Yaramoko mine, together with the Company’s three other wholly-owned Burkina Faso subsidiaries that hold exploration permits in the country, to Soleil Resources International Limited, a private Mauritius company, for consideration of $70M in cash upon closing and the right to receive up to $53.0 million in VAT receivables payable upon the completion of certain conditions. The completion of the Burkina Faso Transaction is subject to the payment of a cash dividend by Roxgold Sanu to Fortuna in the amount of $53.8 million plus $3.7 million in withholding tax. The sale is subject to customary closing conditions, including the approval of the Burkina Faso Minister of Mines, and is expected to close in the second quarter of 2025. Upon completion, the Company will cease all operations in Burkina Faso.

As of May 07, 2025, Roxgold Sanu has paid the $53.8 million dividend and the necessary withholding taxes.

This transaction represents a non-adjusting subsequent event as defined by IAS 10, Events After the Reporting Period. The criteria for classification as held for sale in accordance with IFRS 5, Non-current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations, were not met as of March 31, 2025. Accordingly, the carrying amounts of the four entities have not been reclassified as held for sale, and no adjustments have been made to the amounts recognized in these financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

(c) Ad Valorem Tax Rates Increase for Burkina Faso Operations

On April 7, 2025, the Burkina Faso government announced an increase in ad valorem tax on gold sales, effective immediately. The new tax regime introduces a change to the gold royalties for gold sold above $3,000 per ounce. An additional 1% royalty is payable for each $500 increment in the gold price above $3,000 per ounce. The previous cap was 7% of gold sales over $2,000 per ounce. These changes are not expected to materially impact the Company's financial position and results of operations.

BUSINESS OVERVIEW

Fortuna is a growth focused Canadian precious metals mining company with operations and projects in South America and West Africa. The Company produces gold, silver, and base metals and generates shared value over the long-term through efficient production, environmental protection, and social responsibility. As at the date of the MD&A, the Company has four operating mines and exploration activities in Argentina, Burkina Faso, Côte d'Ivoire, Peru and Mexico, as well as the preliminary economic assessment stage Diamba Sud gold project in Senegal.

The Company operates the open pit Lindero gold mine (“Lindero” or the “Lindero Mine”) located in northern Argentina, the underground Yaramoko gold mine (“Yaramoko” or the “Yaramoko Mine”) located in southwestern Burkina Faso, the underground Caylloma silver, lead, and zinc mine (“Caylloma” or the “Caylloma Mine”) located in southern Peru, and the open pit Séguéla gold mine (“Séguéla”, or the “Séguéla Mine”) located in southwestern Côte d’Ivoire. Each of the Company's producing mines is generally considered to be a separate reportable segment, along with the Company's corporate stewardship segment. The Company entered into an agreement to sell the Yaramoko Mine which is expected to close in the second quarter. See “Corporate Developments” below.

Fortuna is a publicly traded company incorporated and domiciled in British Columbia, Canada. Its common shares are listed on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) under the trading symbol FSM and on the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) under the trading symbol FVI.

CORPORATE DEVELOPMENTS

Sale of the Yaramoko Mine

On April 11, 2025, the Company entered into a definitive share purchase agreement for the sale of its interest in Roxgold Sanu SA (“Roxgold Sanu”), which owns and operates the Yaramoko Mine together with the Company’s three other wholly-owned Burkina Faso subsidiaries which hold exploration permits in country to Soleil Resources International Limited (“SRI”)(the “Burkina Faso Transaction”), a private Mauritius company. Consideration for the sale comprises of:

$70 million cash upon closing of the Burkina Faso Transaction; and
The right to receive up to approximately $53.0 million of value added tax receivables upon the completion of certain conditions.  

The completion of the Burkina Faso Transaction is subject to the payment of a cash dividend by Roxgold Sanu to Fortuna in the amount of $53.8 million (paid) plus $3.7 million in withholding tax (paid), receipt of the consent of the Minister of Mines to the transaction, and other customary conditions of closings for transactions of this nature. The transaction is expected to be completed in the second quarter of 2025. Refer to Fortuna news release “Fortuna announces sale of Yaramoko Mine, Burkina Faso” dated April 11, 2025.

As part of the transaction, given the limited remaining life of mineral reserves at the Yaramoko Mine (approximately one year), the Company and SRI agreed to an assumed handover of operations date of April 14, 2025. From April 15, 2025 onward SRI will accrue any benefits and the costs of owning Roxgold Sanu and the Burkinabe entities with the Company acting as a steward to support operations until the closing date. Upon completion of the Burkina Faso Transaction, the Company will issue updated production and cost guidance for the year for its remaining three operating mines, and will continue to actively pursue opportunities aligned with its strategic opportunities.

Increase of Government Ownership of the Yaramoko Mine

On March 14, 2025, the Company formally agreed to increase the State of Burkina Faso’s equity interest in Sanu from 10% to 15%, in line with the provisions of the 2024 Mining Code. The increase in the State’s ownership will be effective subsequent to the end of the first quarter of 2025.

First Quarter 2025 vs First Quarter 2024

Consolidated sales for the three months ended March 31, 2025 were $290.1 million, a 44% increase from the $201.0 million reported in the same period in 2024. Sales by reportable segment for the three months ended March 31, 2025 were as follows:

Lindero recognized adjusted sales of $53.2 million from the sale of 18,655 ounces of gold, an 18% increase from the same period in 2024. Sales increased at Lindero as a result of higher realized metal prices of $2,877 per gold ounce compared to $2,072 in the previous period which was partially offset by lower ounces sold. Lower ounces sold was the result of lower production due to lower grades and the timing of leach kinetics which were in line with the mine plan. See "Results of Operations – Lindero Mine, Argentina" for additional information.
Yaramoko recognized adjusted sales of $95.1 million from the sale of 33,013 ounces of gold which was 67% higher than the same period in 2024. Higher gold sales at Yaramoko were driven by higher production as higher tonnes milled offset lower grades and higher realized metal prices of $2,881 per gold ounce compared to $2,095 in the comparable period. See "Results of Operations – Yaramoko Mine, Burkina Faso" for additional information.
Séguéla recognized adjusted sales of $111.0 million from the sale of 38,439 ounces of gold an increase of 54% over the previous period. Higher sales at Séguéla in the first quarter of 2025 were the result of higher tonnes milled as the mine realized the benefits of optimization projects undertaken in 2024 as well as higher realized metal prices. Realized gold prices for the quarter were $2,888 compared to $2,095 in the previous period. See "Results of Operations – Séguéla Mine, Côte d’Ivoire" for additional information.
Caylloma recognized adjusted sales of $30.6 million compared to $26.9 million reported in the same period in 2024. The increase in sales was primarily the result of higher realized silver prices offsetting lower silver production. See "Results of Operations – Caylloma Mine, Peru" for additional information.

First Quarter 2025 vs First Quarter 2024

Operating income for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was $91.9 million, an increase of $43.6 million over the same period in 2024 which was primarily due to:

Higher operating income at the Lindero Mine was primarily the result of higher sales as noted above. Costs for the first quarter of 2025 were generally in line with the comparable period as higher explosives and labour costs were offset by higher capitalized stripping and depletion was lower due to lower ounces sold.
Yaramoko operating income was $16.4 million higher as a result of higher sales. This was partially offset by higher costs as stripping costs at the 109 Zone open pit and underground development costs are no longer being capitalized and a higher depletion cost per ounce as depletion rates were revised after the elimination of the 55 Zone open pit from reserves at the end of 2024.
Séguéla recognized operating income of $44.5 million in the first quarter compared to $22.8 million in the comparable period. The increase in operating income was a result of higher sales and partially offset by higher mining costs due to higher stripping in line with the mine plan and a 2% increase in government royalties which took effect on January 10, 2025. Operating income for the first quarter of 2025 included $18.5 million in depletion related to the purchase price of Roxgold Inc. in 2021.
Operating income at the Caylloma Mine for the first quarter of 2025 was $2.2 million higher than the comparable period of 2024 as a result of higher sales.

After adjusting for items that are not indicative of future operating earnings, adjusted EBITDA (refer to Non-IFRS Financial Measures) was $150.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, an increase of $53.8 million over the same period in 2024. Higher adjusted EBITDA was primarily the result of higher sales.

The most comparable IFRS measure to the Non-IFRS measure adjusted EBITDA is net income. Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was $64.8 million. Refer to the discussion above and to the section entitled “Non-IFRS Measures” for more detailed information.

For the three months ended March 31, 2025 (in US dollars, tabular amounts in millions, except where noted)

All-in Sustaining Cost (“AISC”)

First Quarter 2025 vs First Quarter 2024

Consolidated AISC per gold equivalent ounce (“GEO”) sold for the first quarter of 2025 was $1,640 compared to $1,385 per ounce for the comparable quarter. Higher cash costs of $929 per ounce compared to $744 per ounce was a contributing factor as mining costs increased at Séguéla as stripping ratios increased in line with the mine plan and at Yaramoko the mine stopped capitalizing underground development and stripping costs. AISC was also impacted by higher royalties due to an increase in the gold price as well as a 2% increase in the royalty rate at Séguéla effective January 10, 2025 and higher G&A related to higher share based compensation. Refer to “Non-IFRS Financial Measures – All-in Sustaining Cost Per Gold Equivalent Ounce Sold”.

G&A expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2025 increased 51% to $25.3 million compared to $16.8 million reported in the same period in 2024. The increase in G&A was primarily due to higher share-based payments due to a 42% increase in the share price during the quarter and the impact on the valuation of share units expected to settle in cash.

Foreign Exchange

Foreign exchange gain for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was $2.1 million compared to a foreign exchange loss of $4.0 million reported in the same period in 2024. The foreign exchange gain for the quarter was primarily driven by unrealized gains of $3.9 million in West Africa as the Euro strengthened relative to the US Dollar and the impact on cash and VAT balances that are denominated in West African Francs.

Income Tax Expense

The Company is subject to tax in various jurisdictions, including Peru, Mexico, Argentina, Côte d’Ivoire, Burkina Faso, Senegal, Australia, and Canada. There are a number of factors that can significantly impact the Company’s effective tax rate (“ETR”) including the geographic distribution of income, variations in our income before income taxes, varying rates in different jurisdictions, the non-recognition of tax assets, local inflation rates, fluctuation in the value of the United States dollar and foreign currencies, changes in tax laws, and the impact of specific transactions and assessments. As a result of the number of factors that can potentially impact the ETR and the sensitivity of the tax provision to these factors, the ETR will fluctuate, sometimes significantly. This trend is expected to continue in future periods.

Income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was $22.2 million compared to $15.4 million reported in the same period in 2024. The $6.8 million increase in income tax expense was due to higher net income before taxes and was partially offset by higher deferred tax recovery at Séguéla due to the impact of foreign exchange rates on tax assets denominated in West African Francs.

The ETR for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was 25% compared to 34% for the same period in 2024. The decrease in the ETR was the result of higher income before tax and higher deferred tax recovery from the impact of foreign exchange rates on tax assets denominated in West African francs.

Quarterly Operating and Financial Highlights

In the first quarter of 2025, a total of 1,753,016 tonnes of ore were placed on the heap leach pad, with an average gold grade of 0.55 g/t, containing an estimated 30,943 ounces of gold. Ore mined was 1.46 million tonnes, with a stripping ratio of 1.8:1.

Lindero’s gold production for the quarter was 20,320 ounces, comprised of 18,983 ounces in doré bars, 615 ounces contained in rich fine carbon, 39 ounces contained in copper precipitate, and 683 ounces contained in precipitated sludge. The 13% decrease in production compared to Q1 2024 was a result of lower grades and timing of leach kinetics.

The cash cost per ounce of gold for the quarter was $1,147 compared to $1,008 in the same period of 2024. The increase in cash cost per ounce of gold for the quarter was primarily due to the impact on operating costs of the appreciation of the Argentine peso over 2024 and lower ounces sold.

AISC per gold ounce sold during Q1 2025 was $1,911, compared to $1,511 in Q1 2024. Higher AISC was the result of higher cash costs as described above and higher sustaining capital as the site completed work on the leach pad expansion. AISC includes a $1.3 million investment gain (Q1 2024: $2.6 million) from cross border Argentine pesos denominated bond trades.

As of March 31, 2025, the leach pad expansion project was completed, with minor close-out activities and demobilization now taking place.

Quarterly Operating and Financial Highlights

In the first quarter of 2025, the Yaramoko Mine treated 134,692 tonnes of ore and produced 33,073 ounces of gold with an average gold head grade of 7.81g/t, a 22% increase and 11% decrease, respectively, when compared to the same period in 2024. Lower grades were the result of stope sequencing which was offset by higher tonnes from increased underground production and the start of mining at the 109 Zone open pit.

The cash cost per ounce of gold sold for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, was $1,059 compared to $752 in the same period in 2024. Higher cash costs were the result of stripping and underground development costs being expensed as the mine is in its last year of production.

The all-in sustaining cash cost per gold ounce sold was $1,411 for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, compared to $1,373 in the same period of 2024, the increase is mainly due to higher cash costs and an increase in royalties from higher gold prices.

Subsequent to quarter end, the Company entered into a share purchase agreement to sell the Yaramoko Mine. The sale should be completed in the second quarter of 2025. Refer to “Corporate Developments”.

Quarterly Operating and Financial Highlights

During the first quarter of 2025, mine production totaled 477,333 tonnes of ore, averaging 2.53 g/t Au, and containing an estimated 38,869 ounces of gold from the Antenna, Ancien, and Koula pits. Movement of waste during the quarter totaled 5,467,358 tonnes, for a strip ratio of 11.5:1. Mining continued to be focused on the Antenna, Koula, and Ancien Pits.

In the first quarter of 2025, Séguéla processed 444,004 tonnes of ore, producing 38,500 ounces of gold, at an average head grade of 2.76 g/t Au, a 12% increase and a 1% decrease, respectively, compared to the first quarter of 2024. Higher gold production was the result of higher tonnes processed due to throughput achievements in previous quarters. Mill throughput averaged 216 t/hr, 40% above name plate capacity.

Cash cost per gold ounce sold was $650 for the first quarter of 2025 compared to $459 for the first quarter of 2024. The increase in cash costs was a result of higher mining costs due to higher stripping requirements in line with the mine plan, and higher processing costs incurred.

All-in sustaining cash cost per gold ounce sold was $1,290 for the first quarter of 2025 compared to $948 in the same period of the previous year. The increase for the quarter was primarily the result of higher cash costs and higher sustaining capital from stripping and advancement of the stage 3 tailings lift to support higher production at Séguéla, as well as higher royalties due to higher gold prices and a 2% increase in the royalty rate effective January 10, 2025.

Quarterly Operating and Financial Highlights

In the first quarter of 2025, the Caylloma Mine produced 242,993 ounces of silver at an average head grade of 67 g/t, a 23% decrease when compared to the same period in 2024.

Lead and zinc production for the quarter was 8.8 million pounds and 13.8 million pounds, respectively. Head grades averaged 3.21% and 5.01%, an 8% decrease and 12% increase, respectively, when compared to the same quarter in 2024. Production was lower due to lower head grades and was in line with the mine plan.

The cash cost per silver equivalent ounce sold in the first quarter of 2025, was $12.80 compared to $11.61 in the same period in 2024. The higher cost per ounce for the quarter was primarily the result of lower silver production and the impact of higher realized silver prices on the calculation of silver equivalent ounce sold.

The all-in sustaining cash cost per ounce of payable silver equivalent in the first quarter of 2025, increased 9% to $18.74, compared to $17.18 for the same period in 2024. The increase for the quarter was the result of higher cash costs per ounce and lower silver equivalent ounces due to higher silver prices and higher workers’ participation costs.

Amounts have been restated to reflect the impact of discontinued operations

The Company’s results over the past several quarters have primarily been influenced by fluctuations in the gold price, input costs, changes in gold equivalent production, foreign exchange rates and the commencement of commercial production at Séguéla in Q3 2023.

Significant events that have impacted previous quarters include:

Q4 2024 was impacted by a number of one-time items including a $14.5 million write-off for the Boussoura exploration property and a $7.2 million charge due to an increase in the asset retirement obligation liability at San Jose
The recognition of a deferred tax recovery of $12.0 million to offset the deferred tax liability from the issuance of the 2024 Notes in Q2 2024
An impairment charge of $90.6 million in Q4 2023 and a number of one-time items including a write-down of long term stockpiles of $5.4 million and a write-down of materials inventory of $5.5 million

EXPLORATION AND EVALUATION

The Company capitalizes the cost of acquiring, maintaining its interest, and exploring mineral properties as exploration and evaluation assets until such time as the properties are placed into development, abandoned, sold, or considered to be impaired in value. Sustaining capital expenditures primarily consists of exploration activities to expand a known reserve. Growth capital primarily consists of exploration activities to make new discoveries or convert a discovery to a reserve. Exploration and evaluations expenditures for which the Company does not have title or rights are expensed when incurred.

In Senegal, drilling to expand the resource at Diamba Sud continued with 9,045 meters of RC drilling and 5,816 meters of diamond core drilled, while target generation across Diamba Sud and the adjacent Bondala property continued.  

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company had cash and cash equivalents of $305.0 million at March 31, 2025 compared to $231.3 million at the end of 2024. The increase in cash and cash equivalents was the result of higher metal prices driving higher free cash flow from operations. Significant cash flow movements for the quarter are described below.

Operating Activities

Cash flow generated from operating activities for the quarter ending March 31, 2025 increased to $126.4 million compared to $48.9 million in the first quarter of 2024. The increase in operating cash flow was a result of higher metal prices driving higher sales and the timing of payments and other working capital movements, partially offset by $5.7 million in severance payments related to the San Jose Mine being placed on care and maintenance. Negative working capital movements for the quarter were the result of an increase in VAT receivables at Séguéla and Yaramoko due to delays in collection, an increase in inventories as stockpiles increased at Séguéla and timing of payables.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements or commitments that are expected to have a current or future effect on the financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources that are material to investors.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company does not utilize complex financial instruments in hedging foreign exchange or interest exposure. Any hedging activity requires approval of the Company’s Board of Directors. The Company will not hold or issue derivative instruments for speculative or trading purposes.

Provisional priced trade receivables of $14.3 million are the Company’s only level 2 fair valued instruments and no level 3 instruments are held.

Provisionally priced trade receivables are valued using forward London Metal Exchange prices until final prices are settled at a future date. The forward sales, and forward foreign exchange contracts liabilities are valued based on the present value of the estimated contractual cash flows. Estimates of future cash flows are based on quoted swap rates, futures prices and interbank borrowing rates. These are discounted using a yield curve, and adjusted for credit risk of the Company or the counterparty.

See note 3 (section m) and Note 28 of the 2024 Financial Statements for a discussion of the Company’s use of financial instruments, including a description of liquidity risks associated with such instruments.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

For the three months ended March 31, 2025 (in US dollars, tabular amounts in millions, except where noted)

These non-IFRS financial measures and non-IFRS ratios are widely reported in the mining industry as benchmarks for performance and are used by Management to monitor and evaluate the Company's operating performance and ability to generate cash. The Company believes that, in addition to financial measures and ratios prepared in accordance with IFRS, certain investors use these non-IFRS financial measures and ratios to evaluate the Company’s performance. However, the measures do not have a standardized meaning under IFRS and may not be comparable to similar financial measures disclosed by other companies. Accordingly, non-IFRS financial measures and non-IFRS ratios should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures and ratios of the Company’s performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. The Company has calculated these measures consistently for all periods presented with the exception of the following:

The calculation of All-in Sustaining Costs was adjusted in Q4 2024 to include blue-chip swaps in Argentina. Please refer to the 2024 MD&A for details of the change.
The calculations of Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Attributable Net Income were revised to no longer remove the income statement impact of right of use amortization and accretion and add back the right of use payments from the cash flow statement. Management elected to make this change to simplify the reconciliation from net income to adjusted net income to improve transparency and because the net impact was immaterial.
Where applicable the impact of discontinued operations have been removed from the comparable figures. The method of calculation has not been changed except as described above.

The following table outlines the non-IFRS financial measures and ratios, their definitions, the most directly comparable IFRS measures and why we use these measures.

Silver Equivalent Ounces Sold

Silver equivalent ounces are calculated by converting other metal production to its silver equivalent using relative metal/silver metal prices at realized prices and adding the converted metal production expressed in silver ounces to the ounces of silver production.

Silver Ounces Sold

Management believes this provides a consistent way to measure costs and performance.

Gold Equivalent Ounces Sold

Gold equivalent ounces are calculated by converting other metal production to its gold equivalent using relative metal/gold metal prices at realized prices and adding the converted metal production expressed in gold ounces to the ounces of gold production.

Gold Ounces Sold

Cash Costs

Cash costs include all direct and indirect operating cash costs related directly to the physical activities of producing metals, including mining and processing costs, third-party refining and treatment charges, on-site general and administrative expenses, applicable production taxes and royalties which are not based on sales or taxable income calculations , net of by-product credits, but are exclusive of the impact of non-cash items that are included as part of the cost of sales that is calculated in the consolidated Income Statement including depreciation and depletion, reclamation, capital, development and exploration costs.

Cost of Sales

Management believes that cash cost and AISC measures provide useful information regarding the Company's ability to generate operating earnings and cash flows from its mining operations, and uses such measures to monitor the performance of the Company's mining operations. In addition, the Company believes that each measure provides useful information to investors in comparing, on a mine-by-mine basis, our operations relative performance on a period-by-period basis, against our competitors operations.

Cash Cost Per Ounce

This ratio is calculated by dividing cash costs by gold or silver equivalent ounces sold in the period.

Why we use this measure and
why it is useful to investors

All-In Sustaining Costs (AISC)

The Company, in conjunction with an initiative undertaken within the gold mining industry, has adopted AISC and all-in sustaining cost measures based on guidance published by World Gold Council ("WGC"). The Company conforms its AISC and all-in cash cost definitions to that set out in the guidance and the Company has presented the cash cost figures on a sold ounce basis.

We define All-in Sustaining Costs as total production cash costs incurred at the applicable mining operation but excludes mining royalty recognized as income tax within the scope of IAS-12, as well as non-sustaining capital expenditures. Sustaining capital expenditures, corporate selling, general and administrative expenses, gains from blue-chip swaps and brownfield exploration expenditures are added to the cash cost. AISC is estimated at realized metal prices.

AISC per Ounce Sold

This ratio is calculated by dividing AISC by gold or silver equivalent ounces sold in the period.

All-In Costs

All-In Costs is calculated consistently with AISC but is inclusive of non-sustaining capital.

Sustaining Capital

Sustaining capital represents the necessary capital investments to maintain current operations at their existing including such as capitalized stripping and underground development.

Additions to Property Plant and Equipment

Management believes that sustaining and growth capital provide useful information to investors regarding the Company’s investment activities to both maintain the existing operations and invest in the future growth of the Company.

Growth Capital

Growth capital represents the capital investments necessary to expand current operations, develop new projects and build significant infrastructure.

Free cash Flow From Ongoing Operations

Free cash flow from ongoing operations is defined as net cash provided by operating activities, less sustaining capital expenditures and current income tax expense and adding back income taxes paid, changes in long-term receivable sustaining capital expenditures, one time transaction costs, payments of lease liabilities and other non-recurring items.

Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities

This non-IFRS measure is used by the Company and investors to measure the cash flow available from its operations to fund the Company’s growth through investments and capital expenditures.

Free Cash Flow

Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less sustaining and growth capital expenditures and payment of lease obligations.

Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities

This non-IFRS measure is used by the Company to measure cash flow available after funding growth and sustaining capital and lease obligations to fund corporate activities without reliance on additional borrowings.

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Attributable Net Income

Adjusted net income and adjusted attributable net income excludes the after-tax impact of specific items that are significant, which the Company believes are not reflective of the Company’s underlying performance for the reporting period, gains and losses and other one-time costs related to acquisitions, impairment charges (reversals), and certain non-recurring items. Although some of the items are recurring, such as; loss on disposal of assets and non-hedge derivative gains and losses, the Company believes that they are not reflective of the underlying operating performance of its current business and are not necessarily indicative of future operating results.

Net Income

Management believes that in addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with IFRS, the Company and certain investors and analysts use this information and information obtained from conventional IFRS measures to evaluate the Company’s performance.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-IFRS measure which is calculated as net income before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, adjusted to exclude specific items that are significant, but not reflective of the Company's underlying operations, gains and losses and other one-time costs related to acquisitions, impairment charges (reversals), unrealized gains (losses) on derivatives and certain non-recurring items, included in “Other expenses” on the Consolidated Income Statement. Other companies may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently.

Net Income

Management believes that adjusted EBITDA provides valuable information as an indicator of the Company’s ability to generate operating cash flow to fund working capital needs, service debt obligations and fund capital expenditures. Adjusted EBITDA is also a common metric that provides additional information used by investors and analysts for valuation purposes based on an observed or inferred relationship between adjusted EBITDA and market value.

Working Capital

Working capital is a non-IFRS measure which is calculated by subtracting current liabilities from current assets.

Current Assets, Current Liabilities

Management believes that working capital is a useful indicator of the liquidity of the Company.

Net Debt

Net debt is a Non-IFRS measure which is calculated by adding together current and long term debt and then subtracting cash and cash equivalents.

Current Debt, Long Term Debt, Cash and Cash Equivalents

Management believes that net debt is a useful indicator of the liquidity of the Company.

For the three months ended March 31, 2025 (in US dollars, tabular amounts in millions, except where noted)

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

In the exploration, development and mining of mineral deposits, we are subject to various significant risks. Several of these financial and operational risks could have a significant impact on our cash flows and profitability. The most significant risks and uncertainties we face include: operating hazards and risks incidental to mining activities; mineral resources, mineral reserves and metal recoveries are estimated; the ability to replace mineral reserves; assumptions that the Company must make in determining production schedules, economic returns and costs; exploration projects such as Diamba Sud are uncertain; the substantial capital required for exploration and the development of infrastructure; future environmental regulation; political and economic risk in the jurisdictions in which we operate; global geopolitical risk; repatriation of funds; government regulations and permit requirements, environmental legislation; abnormal or extreme natural events; climate change; risks related to securing required supplies of power and water; labor relations; use of outside contractors; imposition of trade tariffs; maintenance of mining concessions, challenges to the Company’s title to its properties; the termination of mining concessions in certain circumstances; risks related to artisanal or informal mining on the Company’s properties; compliance with ILO Convention 169; maintaining relationships with local communities; reputational risk; opposition to the Company’s exploration, development or operational activities; funding for exploration and  development; production risk at our operating mine sites; our ability to service and repay our debt; restrictive covenants that impose significant operating and financial restrictions; change of control restrictions; debt service obligations; breach and default under indebtedness; credit ratings; our ability to attract and retain a skilled workforce; the ability to maintain appropriate and adequate insurance across all jurisdictions; our compliance with corruption and antibribery laws and sanctions; risks related to legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business; foreign currency risk; fluctuations in metal prices; our ability to sell to a limited number of smelters and off-takers; tax matters; credit risk on receivables; reclamation; risks related to information and operation technology systems; results of future legal proceedings and contract settlements; pandemics, epidemics and public health crises; volatility in the market price of the Company’s common shares; risks related to the 2024 Notes; dilution of shareholders from future offerings of the Company’s common shares or securities convertible into common shares; dividends; credit risk through VAT receivables; supply chain disruptions; tax-related risks, including tax and audits and reassessments; risks relating to the uncertainty surrounding the interpretation of omnibus Bill C-59 and the related amendments to the Competition Act (Canada); and competition. These risks are not a comprehensive list of the risks and uncertainties that we face. Risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial may also materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. For a comprehensive discussion on risks and uncertainties, in respect of our business and share price, refer to the section 'Risk Factors' in our current Annual Information Form for the year ended December 31, 2024 as well as the section ‘Risks and Uncertainties’ in the management’s discussion and analysis for the year ended December 31, 2024 (which are available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca).

Significant changes to our financial, operational and business risks exposure during the three months March 31, 2025 and up to the date of this MD&A include the following:

During the first quarter the Company began to accumulate large cash balances in Argentina that are denominated in Argentina Pesos increasing foreign exchange risk. The Company has instituted an investment strategy to hedge against this risk.
On April 11, 2025 the Government of Argentina secured a loan of $20.0 billion from the International Monetary fund and shifted the Argentine Peso to a more free floating exchange rate. This resulted in a rapid devaluation of the Peso but within the acceptable exchange rate band the Government has announced they are aiming for. As part of the announced financial reforms the government of Argentina also announced a relaxation of restrictions of the repatriation of profits. The Company will continue to monitor the situation and is evaluating strategies to repatriate funds to minimize exchange rate risk.
The US Government enacted a series of tariffs and restrictive trade policies to nearly all global trading partners and in response other countries have taken reciprocal actions to place tariffs or trade restrictions on various US products. The impact of these trade restrictions are not currently expected to materially impact the Company as it does not operate in the US and metals sales are not made into the US market. However, management

Fortuna | 32

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

For the three months ended March 31, 2025 (in US dollars, tabular amounts in millions, except where noted)

continues to monitor the situation due to the significant potential impact to global supply chains and other integrated markets.
On April 7, 2025, the Burkina Faso government announced an increase in ad valorem tax on gold sales, effective immediately. The new tax regime introduces a change to the gold royalties for gold sold above $3,000 per ounce. An additional 1% royalty is payable for each $500 increment in the gold price above $3,000 per ounce. The previous cap was 7% of gold sales over $2,000 per ounce. These changes are not expected to materially impact the Company's financial position and results of operations.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES, ASSUMPTIONS AND JUDGEMENTS

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed at each period end. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected.

For further information on our significant judgements and accounting estimates, refer to note 4 of our 2024 Financial Statements. There have been no subsequent material changes to these significant judgements and accounting estimates.

Changes in Accounting Policies

The Company adopted various amendments to IFRS, which were effective for accounting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2025. These include amendments to IAS 21, Lack of Exchangeability. The impacts of adoption were not material to the Company's interim financial statements.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures have been designed to provide reasonable assurance that all material information related to the Company is identified and communicated to management on a timely basis. Management of the Company, under the supervision of the President and Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, is responsible for the design and operation of disclosure controls and procedures in accordance with the requirements of National Instrument 52-109 of the Canadian Securities Administrators and as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

The Company’s internal control over financial reporting (“ICFR”) is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and preparation of financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with IFRS as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. However, due to its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect all misstatements and fraud.

There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting for the three months ended March 31, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Safety performance indicator for TRIFR down to 0.98 compared to 1.33 in Q4 2024. The Company had zero lost time injuries. Despite sustained improvement in safety indicators, the Company reported the fatal accident of a sub-contractor employee at the Séguéla Mine in February.   Fortuna remains fully committed to a zero-harm work environment

Growth and Business Development

At the Kingfisher prospect at the Séguéla Mine the Company intersected 7.2 g/t gold over 31.5 meters. For full details refer to our News Release titled “Fortuna intersects 7.2g/t Au over 31.5 meter at  Kingfisher , Séguéla Mine, Côte d’Ivoire” dated March 13, 2025”
In April the Company closed the sale of the San Jose Mine in Mexico and announced entering into a share purchase agreement to sell its interest in Roxgold Sanu SA, owner of the Yaramoko mine in Burkina Faso. The sale of the Yaramoko Mine provides for cash consideration of $70 million and is subject to the payment of a cash dividend by Roxgold Sanu to Fortuna in the amount of $57.5 million prior to closing. Taken together, these two sales allow us to reallocate approximately $50 million in capital and management focus away from mine closures and toward higher-value opportunities that align more closely with our long-term strategy

3 Au Eq includes gold, silver, lead and zinc and is calculated using the following metal prices: $2,882/oz Au, $31.8/oz Ag, $1,971/t Pb, and $2,841/t Zn for Q1 2025.; $2,490/oz Au, $29.4/oz Ag, $2,040/t Pb, and $2,782/t Zn for Q4 2024; $1,990/oz Au, $23.3/oz Ag, $2,137/t Pb, and $2,499/t Zn for Q1 2024 Jorge A. Ganoza, President and CEO, commented, “Following a strong end to 2024, the Company delivered a new record quarter of free cash-flow from operations at $111.3 million. Quarter over quarter, we realized 8% higher gold prices with lower all-in-sustaining-costs, leading to an expanded free cash flow margin from ongoing operations of 38% compared to 31%.” Mr. Ganoza continued, “Furthermore, we are streamlining our portfolio by divesting high cost, short-life assets allowing us to direct capital and management’s focus towards higher-value opportunities, such as growing production at our most profitable mines.”

First Quarter 2025 Results

Q1 2025 vs Q4 2024

Cash cost per ounce and AISC

Cash cost per GEO sold from continuing operations was $929 in Q1 2025, an increase compared to $888 in Q4 2024. The increase is related to higher cost per ounce at Yaramoko due to lower head grades and higher cost per ounce at Lindero associated with lower production.

All-in sustaining costs per GEO from continuing operations was $1,640 in Q1 2025 compared to $1,690 in Q4 2024. AISC decreased $50 per GEO quarter over quarter mainly due to lower capital expenditures, partially offset by higher royalties from higher gold prices and higher share-based compensation driven by the increase in our share price in Q1 2025.

Attributable Net Income and Adjusted Net Income

Attributable net income from continuing operations for the period was $61.7 million compared to $21.1 million in Q4 2024. The fourth quarter of 2024 was impacted by non-cash charges of $26.3 million related to a write-down of the Boussoura mineral property in Burkina Faso and a write-down of low-grade stockpiles at the Lindero Mine.

Fortuna | 3


After adjusting for impairment charges and other non-recurring items, adjusted attributable net income was $62.1 million or $0.20 per share compared to $37.9 million or $0.12 per share in Q4 2024. The increase was explained mainly by higher metal prices and a lower effective tax rate (“ETR”).  The realized gold price in Q1 2025 was $2,883 per ounce compared to $2,662 in Q4 2024.  The ETR for the quarter was 25% compared to 46% in Q4 2024 due to a 4% appreciation of the Euro vs the US Dollar in Q1 2025 compared to an 8% devaluation in Q4 2024. Other items impacting the quarter compared to Q4 2024 were higher general and administration expenses of $5.8 million, explained by an increase in share-based payments related to a 42% rise in our share price in Q1 2025. This was offset by a foreign exchange gain of $2.1 million compared to a loss of $10.4 million in Q4 2024.

Cash flow

Net cash generated by operations before working capital adjustments was $138.1 million or $0.45 per share. After adjusting for changes in working capital, net cash generated by operations for the quarter was $126.4 million compared to $150.3 million in Q4 2024. The decrease is mainly explained by negative changes in working capital in Q1 2025 of $11.6 million compared to positive $8.6 million in Q4 2024, total cash outflows associated with discontinued operations at San Jose in Q1 2025 of $9.9 million and higher taxes paid in Q1 2025.

Free cash flow from ongoing operations in Q1 2025 was $111.3 million, an increase of $25.8 million over the $85.5 million reported in Q4 2024. The increase was mainly due to lower sustaining capital expenditures of $20 million. Free cash flow, which includes growth capital and other one-time items was, $80.8 million.

Q1 2025 vs Q1 2024

Cash cost per ounce and AISC

Consolidated cash cost per GEO increased to $929, compared to $744 in Q1 2024. This increase was mainly driven by higher cash costs at Séguéla and Yaramoko. The increase in cash cost at Séguéla was primarily due to higher stripping costs, consistent with the mine plan. At Yaramoko, the increase was mainly attributable to lower head grades. Additionally, cash costs rose at Lindero due to lower production volumes and the impact of the Argentine peso's appreciation over 2024.

All-in sustaining costs per gold equivalent ounce from continuing operations increased to $1,640 in Q1 2025 from $1,385 in Q1 2024. This increase primarily resulted from the higher cash cost per ounce discussed above, increased royalties due to the higher gold price, and higher share-based compensation driven by the rise in our share price in Q1 2025. These increases were partially offset by lower sustaining capital.

Attributable Net Income and Adjusted Net Income

Attributable net income from continuing operations for the period was $61.7 million or $0.20 per share, compared to $26.7 million or $0.09 per share in Q1 2024.  

The increase was primarily due to higher realized gold prices, which averaged $2,883 per ounce in Q1 2025 compared to $2,089 per ounce in Q1 2024, and higher sales volumes at Séguéla (up 12%) and Yaramoko (up 22%), driven by increased processed ore at both mines. This positive impact was partially offset by higher cash cost per ounce, mainly at Séguéla and Yaramoko.

Fortuna | 4


Other factors influencing the net income compared to Q1 2024 included higher depletion per ounce at Séguéla and Yaramoko, and higher general and administration expenses of $8.5 million, which were driven by an increase in share-based payments related to a 42% rise in our share price during Q1 2025.  

Depreciation and Depletion

Depreciation and depletion increased by $11.8 million to $61.3 million compared to $49.5 million in the comparable period of 2024. The increase was primarily due to higher ounces sold at Séguéla and Yaramoko. Depreciation and depletion in the period included $18.5 million related to the purchase price allocation from the Roxgold acquisition.  

Cash Flow

Net cash generated by operations for the quarter was $126.4 million compared to $48.9 million in Q1 2024. The increase is mainly explained by higher gold prices and higher volume sold at Séguéla and Yaramoko, and a lower negative change in working capital in Q1 2025 compared to Q1 2024.  

Free cash flow from ongoing operations in Q1 2025 was $111.3 million, compared to $17.3 million reported in Q1 2024.  The increase was mainly due to higher net cash from operations as discussed above and lower sustaining capital expenditures of $7.6 million which reflect lower sustaining capital requirements in 2025.

Quarterly Operating and Financial Highlights

During the first quarter of 2025, mine production totaled 477,333 tonnes of ore, averaging 2.53 g/t Au, and containing an estimated 38,869 ounces of gold from the Antenna, Ancien, and Koula pits. Movement of waste during the quarter totaled 5,467,358 tonnes, for a strip ratio of 11.5:1. Mining continued to be focused on the Antenna, Koula, and Ancien Pits.

In the first quarter of 2025, Séguéla processed 444,004 tonnes of ore, producing 38,500 ounces of gold, at an average head grade of 2.76 g/t Au, a 12% increase and a 1% decrease, respectively, compared to the first quarter of 2024. Higher gold production was the result of higher tonnes processed due to throughput achievements in previous quarters. Mill throughput averaged 216 t/hr, 40% above name plate capacity.

Cash cost per gold ounce sold was $650 for the first quarter of 2025 compared to $459 for the first quarter of 2024. The increase in cash costs was a result of higher mining costs due to higher stripping requirements in line with the mine plan, and higher processing costs incurred.

All-in sustaining cash cost per gold ounce sold was $1,290 for the first quarter of 2025 compared to $948 in the same period of the previous year. The increase for the quarter was primarily the result of higher cash costs and higher sustaining capital from stripping and advancement of the stage 3 tailings lift to support higher production at Séguéla, as well as higher royalties due to higher gold prices and a 2% increase in the royalty rate effective January 10, 2025.

Higher growth capital expenditures for the first quarter of 2025 compared to 2024 was primarily the result of relocation of a government communications antenna on the property at the mine site.

Quarterly Operating and Financial Highlights

In the first quarter of 2025, the Yaramoko Mine treated 134,692 tonnes of ore and produced 33,073 ounces of gold with an average gold head grade of 7.81 g/t, a 22% increase and 11% decrease, respectively, when compared to the same period in 2024. Lower grades were the result of stope sequencing which was offset by higher tonnes from increased underground production and the start of mining at the 109 Zone open pit.

The cash cost per ounce of gold sold for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, was $1,059 compared to $752 in the same period in 2024. Higher cash costs were the result of stripping and underground development costs being expensed as the mine is in its last year of production.

The all-in sustaining cash cost per gold ounce sold was $1,411 for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, compared to $1,373 in the same period of 2024, the increase is mainly due to higher cash costs and an increase in royalties from higher gold prices.

Subsequent to quarter end, the Company entered into a share purchase agreement to sell the Yaramoko Mine. The sale is expected to be completed in the second quarter of 2025.

Quarterly Operating and Financial Highlights

In the first quarter of 2025, a total of 1,753,016 tonnes of ore were placed on the heap leach pad, with an average gold grade of 0.55 g/t, containing an estimated 30,943 ounces of gold. Ore mined was 1.46 million tonnes, with a stripping ratio of 1.8:1.

Lindero’s gold production for the quarter was 20,320 ounces, comprised of 18,983 ounces in doré bars, 615 ounces contained in rich fine carbon, 39 ounces contained in copper precipitate, and 683 ounces contained in precipitated sludge. The 13% decrease in production compared to Q1 2024 was a result of lower grades and timing of leach kinetics.

The cash cost per ounce of gold for the quarter was $1,147 compared to $1,008 in the same period of 2024. The increase in cash cost per ounce of gold for the quarter was primarily due to the impact on operating costs of the appreciation of the Argentine peso over 2024 and lower ounces sold.

AISC per gold ounce sold during Q1 2025 was $1,911, compared to $1,511 in Q1 2024. Higher AISC was the result of higher cash costs as described above and higher sustaining capital as the site completed work on the leach pad expansion. AISC includes a $1.3 million investment gain (Q1 2024: $2.6 million) from cross border Argentine pesos denominated bond trades.

As of March 31, 2025, the leach pad expansion project was completed, with minor close-out activities and demobilization now taking place.

Quarterly Operating and Financial Highlights

In the first quarter of 2025, the Caylloma Mine produced 242,993 ounces of silver at an average head grade of 67 g/t, a 23% decrease when compared to the same period in 2024.

Lead and zinc production for the quarter was 8.8 million pounds and 13.8 million pounds, respectively. Head grades averaged 3.21% and 5.01%, an 8% decrease and 12% increase, respectively, when compared to the same quarter in 2024.

Fortuna | 9


Production was lower due to lower head grades and was in line with the mine plan.

The cash cost per silver equivalent ounce sold in the first quarter of 2025 was $12.80 compared to $11.61 in the same period in 2024. The higher cost per ounce for the quarter was primarily the result of lower silver production and the impact of higher realized silver prices on the calculation of silver equivalent ounce sold.

The all-in sustaining cash cost per ounce of payable silver equivalent in the first quarter of 2025 increased 9% to $18.74, compared to $17.18 for the same period in 2024. The increase for the quarter was the result of higher cash costs per ounce and lower silver equivalent ounces due to higher silver prices and higher workers’ participation costs.

The Company believes that, in addition to financial measures and ratios prepared in accordance with IFRS, certain investors use these non-IFRS financial measures and ratios to evaluate the Company’s performance. However, the measures do not have a standardized meaning under IFRS and may not be comparable to similar financial measures disclosed by other companies. Accordingly, non-IFRS financial measures and non-IFRS ratios should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures and ratios of the Company’s performance prepared in accordance with IFRS.

To facilitate a better understanding of these measures and ratios as calculated by the Company, descriptions are provided below. In addition see “Non-IFRS Financial Measures” in the Company’s management’s discussion and analysis for the three months ended March 31, 2025 (“Q1 2025 MDA”), which section is incorporated by reference in this news release, for additional information regarding each non-IFRS financial measure and non-IFRS ratio disclosed in this news release, including an explanation of their composition; an explanation of how such measures and ratios provide useful information to an investor.

The calculations of Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Attributable Net Income were revised to no longer remove the income statement impact of right of use amortization and accretion and add back the right of use payments from the cash flow statement. Management elected to make this change to simplify the reconciliation from net income to adjusted net income to improve transparency and because the net impact was immaterial.
Where applicable the impact of discontinued operations have been removed from the comparable figures. The method of calculation has not been changed except as described above.

The Forward-looking Statements in this news release include, without limitation, statements about the Company's plans for its mines and mineral properties; statements regarding the completion of the sale of the Yaramoko Mine and the anticipated benefits to the Company of the sale of the San Jose Mine and the pending sale of the Yaramoko Mine; statements referring to a zero-harm work environment; the Company's business strategy, plans and outlook; the merit of the Company's mines and mineral properties; mineral resource and reserve estimates, metal recovery rates, concentrate grade and quality; changes in tax rates and tax laws, requirements for permits, anticipated approvals and other matters.

The forward-looking statements in this news release also include financial outlooks and other forward-looking metrics relating to the Company and its business, including references to financial and business prospects and future results of operations, including production, and cost guidance and anticipated future financial performance. Such information, which may be considered future oriented financial information or financial outlooks within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities legislation (collectively, “FOFI”), has been approved by management of the Company and is based on assumptions which management believes were reasonable on the date such FOFI was prepared, having regard to the industry, business, financial conditions, plans and prospects of the Company and its business and properties. These projections are provided to describe the prospective performance of the Company's business. Nevertheless, readers are cautioned that such information is highly subjective and should not be relied on as necessarily indicative of future results and that actual results may differ significantly from such projections. FOFI constitutes forward-looking statements and is subject to the same assumptions, uncertainties, risk factors and qualifications as set forth below.

Forward-looking Statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the Company to be materially different from any results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the Forward-looking Statements. Such uncertainties and factors include, among others, changes in general economic conditions and financial markets; risks associated with war or other geo-political hostilities, such as the Ukrainian – Russian and the Israel – Hamas conflicts, any of which could continue to cause a disruption in global economic activity; fluctuation in currencies and foreign exchange rates; increases in the rate of inflation; the imposition or any extension of capital controls in countries in which the Company operates; any changes in tax laws in Argentina and the other countries in which we operate; changes in the prices of key supplies; uncertainty relating to nature and climate change conditions; risks associated with climate change legislation; laws and regulations regarding the protection of the environment (including greenhouse gas emission reduction and other decarbonization requirements and the uncertainty surrounding the interpretation of omnibus Bill C-59 and the related amendments to the Competition Act (Canada);  our ability to manage physical and transition risks related to climate change and successfully adapt our business strategy to a low carbon global economy; technological and operational hazards in Fortuna’s mining and mine development activities; risks related to water and power availability; risks inherent in mineral exploration; uncertainties inherent in the estimation of mineral reserves, mineral resources, and metal recoveries; changes to current estimates of mineral reserves and resources; changes to production and cost estimates; changes in the position of regulatory authorities with respect to the granting of approvals or permits; governmental and other approvals; changes in government, political unrest or instability in countries where Fortuna is active; labor relations issues; as well as those factors discussed under “Risk Factors” in the Company's Annual Information Form for the financial year ended December 31, 2024 filed with the Canadian Securities Administrators and available at www.sedarplus.ca and filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission as part of the Company’s Form 40-F and available at www.sec.gov/edgar.shtml. Although the Company has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual actions, events or results to differ materially from those described in Forward-looking Statements, there may be other factors that cause actions, events or results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended.

Forward-looking Statements contained herein are based on the assumptions, beliefs, expectations and opinions of management, including, but not limited to, the accuracy of the Company’s current mineral resource and reserve estimates; that the Company’s activities will be conducted in accordance with the Company’s public statements and stated goals; that there will be no material adverse change affecting the Company, its properties or changes to production estimates (which assume accuracy of projected ore grade, mining rates, recovery timing, and recovery rate estimates and may be impacted by unscheduled maintenance, labor

and contractor availability and other operating or technical difficulties); geo-political uncertainties that may affect the Company’s production, workforce, business, operations and financial condition; the expected trends in mineral prices and currency exchange rates; that the Company will be successful in mitigating the impact of inflation on its business and operations; that all required approvals and permits will be obtained for the Company’s business and operations on acceptable terms; expectations regarding the Company completing the sale of the Yaramoko  Mine on the basis consistent with the Company’s current expectations; that there will be no significant disruptions affecting the Company's operations, the ability to meet current and future obligations and such other assumptions as set out herein. Forward-looking Statements are made as of the date hereof and the Company disclaims any obligation to update any Forward-looking Statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or results or otherwise, except as required by law.
