Facts used in scoring: 26 ## Classification and evidence **Production Increase** Polarity: positive Story-specific tag Definition: No canonical definition is currently available. Why it applies: Gold production increased for a fourth consecutive quarter and rose more than 80% compared to the first quarter of 2025, with Q4 2025 production at 37,574 ounces and FY 2025 production at 121,191 ounces. Evidence · text > Produced 37,574 ounces of gold during the quarter, a 15% increase compared to Q3 2025. Annual gold production achieved 121,191 ounces for FY 2025, within the revised guidance range. **Cost Reduction** Polarity: positive Story-specific tag Definition: No canonical definition is currently available. Why it applies: AISC for Q4 2025 was $2,033/oz, which was 11% lower compared to Q3 2025 and significantly lower than Q4 2024. Evidence · text > AISC 1 for Q4 2025 was $2,033/oz, compared to $2,638/oz in Q4 2024. The decrease in AlSC 1 was primarily driven by a 55% increase in gold ounces sold in Q4 2025. Relative to Q3 2025, AISC 1 decreased by 11% in Q4 2025 on a per ounce basis, resulting from higher gold ounces sold. **Positive Guidance** Polarity: positive Story-specific tag Definition: No canonical definition is currently available. Why it applies: The company provided FY 2026 gold production guidance of 140,000 to 160,000 ounces, representing an approximate 25% increase compared to FY 2025. Evidence · text > For FY 2026, gold production guidance at the AGM is forecast between 140,000 ounces and 160,000 ounces. **Strong Cash Position** Polarity: positive Story-specific tag Definition: No canonical definition is currently available. Why it applies: The company maintained a strong cash position with $108.3 million as of December 31, 2025, and no debt. Evidence · text > The Company has maintained a strong cash position with $108.3 million as of December 31, 2025 and no debt. **Deleterious Elements Present** Polarity: negative Story-specific tag Definition: A source-stated penalty, refractory or recovery concern in the fact's scope. Element detection alone, including measured elements explicitly below penalty thresholds, does not trigger this tag. Respect negation and retain a separately stated concern even when another risk is explicitly absent. Why it applies: AISC guidance for FY 2026 is higher due to higher royalties resulting from higher forecast gold prices, and potential further increases if Ghana's royalty framework amendments are ratified. Evidence · text > Relative to FY 2025 reported AISC 1 , FY 2026 AISC guidance is higher by approximately $80/oz due to higher royalties resulting from higher forecast gold prices. AISC 1 guidance does not reflect the amendments to Ghana's royalty framework that have been proposed to Parliament. If the royalty amendments were ratified by Parliament, the Company's AISC 1 would increase by approximately $375/oz at current spot gold prices. ## Extracted facts Stored fact records: 2.
