Key Financial Metrics
Revenue, Profit, Cash Flow, Margins, Debt, Liquidity: The filing text does not provide specific values for revenue, profit, cash flow, margins, debt, or liquidity. This report focuses on regulatory disclosures and project updates rather than periodic financial results.
Non-GAAP Measures: The corporate presentation (Exhibit 99.2) contains non-GAAP financial measures. The filing explicitly states that reconciliations to GAAP are not included due to the difficulty of quantifying certain amounts. Some measures are based on IFRS standards prepared by Kinross Gold Corporation for the Peak Gold, LLC joint venture, for which Contango holds a 30% interest.
Material Changes and Project Updates
- Technical Report Summary (TRS): Completed on September 22, 2026, with an effective date of September 11, 2026, for the Kitsault Valley Project.
- Resource Status: No measured mineral resources or mineral reserves are reported for the Kitsault Valley Project. The estimate supports continued evaluation of potential underground extraction but does not establish a mine development decision.

Guidance, Outlook, Risks, and Contingencies
Outlook and Forward-Looking Statements: The filing contains extensive forward-looking statements regarding future exploration, drilling, development, permitting, production, costs, and capital expenditures. These are based on current expectations and are not guarantees of future performance.
Key Risks and Uncertainties:
- Resource Conversion: Inferred mineral resources cannot be assumed to convert to indicated or measured resources or reserves; actual upgrading depends on future drilling and economic results.
- Joint Venture Reliance: Contango has limited control over the Peak Gold JV and relies on Kinross Gold Corporation and its subsidiaries, including the availability of Fort Knox processing facilities.
- Operational and Market Risks: Includes geological uncertainties, volatility of gold and silver prices, permitting delays, financing availability, and potential disruptions from public health emergencies or political changes.
- Acquisition Integration: Risks associated with the acquisition of Dolly Varden Silver Corporation.
Investor Verification Checklist
- Verify the full text of the Technical Report Summary (Exhibit 96.1) for detailed mineral resource estimates and assumptions.
- Review the corporate presentation (Exhibit 99.2) to understand the non-GAAP measures, noting the lack of GAAP reconciliation.
- Confirm the status of the 30% interest in Peak Gold, LLC and the operational role of Kinross Gold Corporation.
- Assess the specific permitting requirements and timelines for the Kitsault Valley Project as outlined in the TRS.
- Monitor future filings for updates on the conversion of inferred resources to higher confidence categories.
