Record quarterly and annual free cash flow1 of $132.3 million and $330.0 million as Fortuna delivers on its operational plan and achieves production guidance
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Feb. 18, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Fortuna Mining Corp. (NYSE:FSM, TSX:FVI) ("Fortuna" or the "Company") today reported its financial and operating results for the fourth quarter and full year of 2025.(Results from the Company's San Jose and Yaramoko assets have been excluded from the 2025 continuing results, along with the comparative figures, due to the classification of the assets as discontinued as at December 31, 2025 unless otherwise disclosed.) Jorge A. Ganoza President and CEO of Fortuna, commented, "Q4 was a strong end to the year as we delivered record free cash flow from operations of $132.3 million and returned $12.1 million to our shareholders." Mr. Ganoza continued "We finished the year in line with production guidance but at a higher AISC due to the impact of rising metal prices on royalties, gold equivalent ratios and share based compensation expenses. Adjusting for these items our AISC would have been under $1,700 an ounce." Mr. Ganoza concluded "2025 was a transition year for Fortuna as we streamlined our portfolio by divesting non-core assets and positioned the Company for its next phase of growth at Diamba Sud and the Séguéla plant expansion. All this is underpinned by one of the best balance sheets in our peer group with $704 million in liquidity and $381 million in net cash."

Expanded Mineral Reserves at Séguéla by 31% and extending the mine life to over 9 years. Refer to the news release dated January 20, 2026 "Fortuna Expands Mineral Reserve Gold Ounces by 31% and Extends Life of Mine to Over 9 Years at the Séguéla Mine, Côte d'Ivoire"
Commissioned a feasibility study to expand the plant throughput at Séguéla by 15 to 40% with results expected in the second quarter of 2026. Refer to the news release dated December 3, 2025 "Fortuna Awards the Séguéla Mine Plant Expansion Study, Côte d'Ivoire"
At the Diamba Sud Gold Project, supported by robust PEA economics (Refer to the news release dated October 15, 2025, "Fortuna delivers robust PEA for Diamba Sud Gold Project in Senegal: After-tax IRR of 72% and NPV5% of US$563 million using US$2,750 per ounce") the Company has allocated approximately $67 million to advance early works and the order of critical equipment to de-risk construction. A construction decision is targeted for mid 2026.Cautionary Statement: The PEA is preliminary in nature, and includes inferred mineral resources that are considered too speculative geologically to have the economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves; as such, there is no certainty that the PEA results will be realized. Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability.5

Fourth Quarter 2025 Results
Q4 2025 vs Q3 2025
Cash cost per ounce and AISCCash cost per GEO sold from continuing operations was $971 in Q4 2025, representing a marginal increase from $942 in Q3 2025.
All-in sustaining costs per GEO from continuing operations was $2,054 in Q4 2025 representing a $67 increase from the $1,987 recorded in Q3 2025. The rise was primarily driven by lower ounces sold at Lindero and higher royalties of $55, partially offset by lower AISC at Séguéla resulting from a decrease in strip ratio quarter over quarter.
Attributable Net Income and Adjusted Net Income Attributable net income from continuing operations for the period was $68.1 million in Q4 2025, compared to $123.6 million in Q3 2025. Net income in Q3 2025 included the reversal of an impairment charge of $52.7 million and the reversal of a previous write-down of $16.7 million of low-grade stockpiles at Lindero as a result of an increase in medium and long-term gold price assumptions.
After adjusting for impairment reversals and other non-recurring items, adjusted attributable net income was $71.3 million or $0.23 per share compared to $51.0 million or $0.17 per share in Q3 2025. The increase was primarily driven by higher realized gold prices, partially offset by lower gold sales volume, and a modestly higher effective tax rate. The realized gold price in Q4 2025 was $4,166 per ounce compared to $3,467 in Q3 2025. Lower gold sales were mainly attributable to lower production at Lindero related to a 12-day stoppage of the HPGR tertiary crusher in December.
Foreign ExchangeIn Q4 2025, the Company recorded a foreign exchange loss of $2.9 million compared to a loss of $7.4 million in Q3 2025.
For the full year, the Company recorded a foreign exchange loss of $7.8 million, comprised of a $13.8 million realized loss and a $6.0 million unrealized gain. The foreign exchange realized loss was primarily related to the Company's Argentine operations, where the peso devalued 41% during 2025. Of the realized loss, over $6.0 million relates to cash accumulated in-country in the first half of 2025; however, this loss was fully offset by interest, investment, and derivative gains throughout the year. In early Q3 2025 the Company was able to restart the repatriation of funds from Argentina, allowing local cash balances to be minimized. Foreign exchange losses of $3.4 million were incurred as part of the cost of repatriations during the year through the "Blue-Chip Swap Market".
Cash FlowNet cash generated by operations before changes in working capital totaled $147.6 million or $0.48 per share. After adjusting for working capital, net cash generated by operations for the quarter was $162.3 million compared to $111.3 million in Q3 2025. This increase was driven by higher sales, lower income tax payments, and a favorable swing in working capital, which contributed $14.8 million in Q4 compared to an outflow of $2.6 million in the prior quarter. Income taxes paid decreased to $20.8 million in Q4 2025 (including $14.4 million of withholding taxes from fund repatriation), down from $34.7 million in Q3 2025. The Q3 figure included $13.6 million in withholding taxes paid related to the repatriation of funds from Argentina and Côte d'Ivoire.
Free cash flow from ongoing operations in Q4 2025 was $132.3 million, an increase of $58.9 million compared to $73.4 million in Q3 2025 reflecting higher cash from operating activities and a reduction in sustaining capital expenditures from $31.2 million in the prior quarter to $23.9 million.
In Q4 2025, the Company invested $20.6 million in non-sustaining capital expenditures, comprising of $10.7 million in mine site exploration and other items, and $10.1 million at the Diamba Sud project.
Q4 2025 vs Q4 2024
Cash cost per ounce and AISC Consolidated cash cost per GEO increased to $971 in Q4 2025, representing a $53 increase compared to $918 recorded in Q4 2024. The increase was mainly due to higher stripping ratios at Séguéla and Lindero, as per the mine plan.
All-in sustaining costs per gold equivalent ounce from continuing operations increased $212 to $2,054 in Q4 2025 from $1,842 in Q4 2024. This increase primarily resulted from higher royalties of $139, the impact of higher gold prices on the GEO calculation at Caylloma of $74, and $77 related to higher share-based compensation. This was partially offset by a decrease in AISC at Lindero explained by lower capital expenditures in 2025.
Attributable Net Income and Adjusted Net Income Attributable net income from continuing operations was $68.1 million, or $0.22 per share, compared to $11.4 million, or $0.05 per share, in Q4 2024.
After adjusting for reversals of impairments and stockpile write-downs and other non-recurring items, adjusted attributable net income from continuing operations was $71.3 million or $0.23 per share compared to $19.4 million or $0.06 per share in Q4 2024. The increase was primarily due to higher realized gold prices, which averaged $4,166 per ounce in Q4 2025 compared to $2,659 per ounce in Q4 2024. This was partially offset by lower production and higher share-based compensation expense of $6.9 million compared to $1.6 million in Q4 2024.
Depreciation and DepletionDepreciation and depletion decreased by $2.3 million to $44.9 million compared to $47.2 million Q4 2024. Despite the lower expense, depletion per ounce increased by $60. This was primarily due to higher depletion rates at Lindero following the impairment reversal of $52.7 million recorded in Q3 2025. This increase was partially offset by lower depletion per ounce at Seguela, which benefitted from the addition of low discovery-cost ounces.
Depreciation and depletion in the period included $16.2 million (FY 2025: $71.4 million) related to the purchase price allocation from the 2021 Roxgold acquisition.
Cash Flow Net cash generated by operations for the quarter was $162.3 million compared to $99.2 million in Q4 2024. The increase was primarily driven by higher gold prices and favourable changes in working capital in Q4 2025 compared to Q4 2024.
Free cash flow from ongoing operations in Q4 2025 was $132.3 million, compared to $51.1 million reported in Q4 2024. The increase was mainly due to higher prices as discussed above, and lower sustaining capital expenditures of $17.1 million year over year.

Quarterly Operating and Financial Highlights
During the fourth quarter of 2025, mine production totaled 340,464 tonnes of ore, averaging 3.71 g/t Au, and containing an estimated 40,614 ounces of gold from the Antenna, Ancien, and Koula pits. Ore tonnes mined were lower than tonnes milled during the quarter, in line with the mine plan and the strategy to reduce surface stockpiles. A total of 3,920,293 tonnes of waste was moved during the period, resulting in a strip ratio of 11.5:1.
In the fourth quarter of 2025, Séguéla processed 410,014 tonnes of ore, producing 36,942 ounces of gold, at an average head grade of 3.16 g/t Au, a 5% decrease in tonnes of ore and 7% increase in average head grade, compared to the same period of the previous year. Lower tonnes milled during the quarter were primarily due to downtime caused by a failure of the SAG mill motor cooling system in October 2025 and other planned maintenance activities.
Gold production in 2025 totaled 152,426 ounces, above the upper end of the annual guidance range. An 11% increase in ounces of gold produced during the year was mainly due to the realization of throughput optimization projects through 2024 increasing ore processed, and a 19-day loss of time in 2024 as a result of power shedding from the national grid supplier.
Cash cost per gold ounce sold was $710 for the fourth quarter and $679 for the full year of 2025, compared to $653 for the fourth quarter and $584 for the full year of 2024. Cash costs were higher due to an increase in mining costs from higher stripping requirements in line with the mine plan and higher processing costs due to an increase of onsite power generation.
All-in sustaining cash cost per gold ounce sold was $1,576 for the fourth quarter of 2025 and $1,560 for the full year of 2025, compared to $1,376 for the fourth quarter and $1,153 for the full year of 2024. The increase for the quarter and for the year was primarily a result of higher cash cost per ounce sold, higher sustaining capital from capitalized stripping and higher royalties due to higher gold prices and a 2% increase in the royalty rate effective January 10, 2025.
The site finished the year in line with the AISC guidance range of $1,500 to $1,600 per ounce.Lindero Mine, Argentina

Quarterly Operating and Financial Highlights
In the fourth quarter of 2025, a total of 1,191,030 tonnes of ore were placed on the heap leach pad, with an average gold grade of 0.63 g/t, containing an estimated 24,040 ounces of gold. Ore mined was 1.41 million tonnes, with a stripping ratio of 1.5:1.
Lindero's gold production for the quarter was 19,201 ounces compared to 26,806 ounces in the previous period. Lindero experienced unplanned downtime of the primary crusher in late September. The primary crusher was returned to full service on December 19, 2025. During the downtime period, Management implemented several mitigation measures, including the use of a portable jaw crusher and direct run-of-mine ore screening, which offset the impact of the primary crusher interruption.
On December 8, 2025, the HPGR tertiary crusher experienced abnormal vibration originating from one of its two cardan shafts, resulting in a 12-day full stoppage. A spare cardan shaft was installed, and the HPGR circuit was restarted on December 20, 2025. The production loss associated with the HPGR repair could not be mitigated. Consequently, gold production for December, and cumulative production for the fourth quarter, were below Management's plan, resulting in Lindero not achieving its annual production guidance. See Fortuna news release dated January 15, 2026, which is available under the Company's profile at www.sedarplus.ca.
Following an engineering assessment of the primary crusher and its supporting foundations, Management has approved a planned 30-day replacement of the steel foundations starting in March 2026, at an estimated capital cost of $2.2 million. Mining operations will continue ahead of the scheduled work, with ore being stockpiled to support uninterrupted stacking on the leach pad during the foundation replacement period.
Lindero produced a total of 87,489 ounces of gold in 2025, 10% lower compared to 2024, mainly as a result of the twelve day full stoppage described above.
The cash cost per ounce of gold for the quarter was $1,117 compared to $1,063 in the same period of 2024. For the year ended December 31, 2025, the cash cost per ounce was $1,132, an increase from $1,051 in 2024. The increase in cash costs for both the quarter and the full year was primarily driven by lower production volumes.
AISC per gold ounce sold decreased in both Q4 2025 and the full year 2025, dropping to $1,639 and $1,716, respectively (Q4 2024: $1,873; full year 2024: $1,793). The decrease in both periods was primarily driven by lower sustaining capital expenditures as the leach pad expansion was under construction in the comparable periods and lower capitalized stripping. These cost reductions were partially offset by the lower ounces sold and a reduction in gains from cross-border Argentine Peso bond trades. (2025: $nil in Q4 and $1.3 million for the year; compared to 2024: $1.4 million in Q4 and $9.7 million for the year).
The site finished the year within AISC guidance which was from $1,600 to $1,770 per ounce.Caylloma Mine, Peru

Quarterly Operating and Financial Highlights
In the fourth quarter of 2025, the Caylloma Mine produced 248,882 ounces of silver at an average head grade of 65 g/t, comparable to the same period of 2024.
Lead and zinc production for the quarter was 8.4 million pounds and 12.2 million pounds, respectively. Head grades averaged 2.95% Pb and 4.32% Zn, a 12% and 13% decrease, 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.
Full year silver production of 966,108 ounces was in line with guidance of 900,000 to 1,000,000 ounces. Lead and zinc production exceeded guidance of 29 to 32 million pounds of lead and 45 to 49 million pounds of zinc.
The cash cost per silver equivalent ounce sold in the fourth quarter of 2025 was $23.74 and $17.38 for the full year of 2025, compared to $16.53 in the fourth quarter of 2024 and $14.12 for the full year of 2024. The higher cost per ounce for the quarter and for the full year was primarily the result of higher realized silver prices and the impact on the calculation of silver equivalent ounces sold and lower silver production.
The all-in sustaining cash cost per ounce of payable silver equivalent in the fourth quarter of 2025 increased 65% to $46.27 compared to $28.10 for the same period in 2024. The all-in sustaining cash cost per ounce of payable silver equivalent in 2025 increased 26% to $27.46 compared to $21.72 for the same period in 2024. The increase for the quarter and for the full year was the result of higher cash costs per ounce and lower silver equivalent ounces due to higher silver prices. For the full year, the increase in silver prices had a $6.40 per ounce impact on AISC.
AISC guidance for the year was $21.7 to $24.7 per ounce based on a silver price of $30/oz. AISC for the year exceeded guidance due to elevated silver prices lowering the silver equivalent production from base metals as production costs were in line with plan for the year.
