Q2 2025 Financial Results

Maiden revenue and good operational progress across allcommissioning activities atNalunaq gold mine

TORONTO, ONTARIO – 14 August 2025– Amaroq Ltd. (AIM, TSX-V, NASDAQ Iceland: AMRQ, OTCQX: AMRQF), an independent mine development corporation focused on unlocking Greenland’s mineral potential, is pleased to announce its Q2 2025 Financial Results. All dollar amounts are expressed in Canadian dollars unless otherwise noted.

A remote presentation for analysts and investors will be held later today at 9:30am BST, details of which can be found further down in this announcement.

Eldur Olafsson, CEO of Amaroq, commented:

“I am pleased to report good progress acrossall of the commissioning activities at ourNalunaq mine, as we continued the trial mining, on-going construction and commissioning of the processing plant, development of essential infrastructure, as well as stabilization of process plant operating activities. By the end of Q2-25, we had reached two significant milestones, with thefirstshipment and export of golddoré bars andthe associatedmaiden revenue from operations ofC$3.4 million.In terms of commissioning progress,I am very encouraged that in Q2-25, we achieved an average of 3.6x more processing throughputversus Q1-25 and mining ore production was 2.6x better in Q2-25 versus Q1-25. I am pleased to note that this trend has continued in the third quarter, with a further 36kg ofdoré bars in the safe at site, at the time of writing.

“In June 2025, we successfully completed an oversubscribed and upsized £45 millionequityfundraise, following significant reverse interest from international institutional investors. Alongside the fundraise we announced the acquisition of the West Greenland Hub, a new mining province for the Company in Greenland. The West Greenland Hub contains thepreviously producing Black Angel mine andKangerluarsuk licences and crystallises our position as the largest acreage holder in Greenland, as well as geographically diversifying our operations into this highly prospective new area in thenorth west of Greenland.

“With good commissioning progress to date, coupled with the flexibility provided by the enhanced liquidity positionfollowing the upsized fundraise; management have decided to bring forward certain construction and commissioning activities for the installation of the flotation recovery (Phase 2) systems, intoQ3 and Q4 2025. This will require a period of shut down at the processing facility to accommodate these activities but will enablecritical work to be completed beforewinter, when operating conditions are more challenging, however mining will continue as normal.Once completed, the processing facility will be calibrated to higher recovery rates, enabling higher cash generation from the facility, which will be further enhanced once it is running atthe nameplate throughput of 300 t/d, which remains our target by year end 2025.Theadditionalproposed construction and commissioning activities in Q3 and Q4-25 means we are targetingproduction for the year of approximately 5koz of gold for the full year 2025.

“During the Period, we also completed the planning and scheduling for allof our seasonal exploration field work activities across the gold and strategic mineral asset base, this includes acomprehensive, multi-rig drilling programmeatNalunaq, targeting continued resource expansion, with up to 3,500 metres of surface drilling and near-continuous underground drilling planned, as well as at Nanoq, the analogous gold prospect east ofNalunaq within theNanortalik gold belt, with approximately 5,000 metres of core drilling to advance towards a maiden Mineral Resource Estimate, as well as operations to expand our understanding across existing and new satellite gold targets within theNanortalik gold belt.”

Q2 2025 Corporate Highlights

• Maiden revenue of $3.4 million in Q2 2025, following the first commercial sale of gold doré bars from the Nalunaq mine.
• Successfully completed an oversubscribed and upsized equity fundraise in June 2025, raising gross proceeds of approximately £45.0 million.
  • In June 2025, Amaroq announced the proposed acquisitions of the past producing Black Angel mine and Kangerluarsuk licences to create a West Greenland Hub.
  • In May 2025, Amaroq signed a non-binding heads of terms with JLE Group Ltd to establish a special purpose vehicle and create a joint venture company to be called Suliaq ApS, dedicated to the provision of essential services, supplies and supporting assets to Greenland’s growing mining sector and wider economy.
  • Amaroq group liquidity of $75.0 million, at period end, consisting of cash balances of $86.0 million, an undrawn revolving credit facility of $8.9 million less trade payables of $19.8 million ($23.4 million as at 31 March 2025).
    
    

Q2 2025 Operational Highlights

• Completion of first commercial shipments and export of doré bars containing 808 ounces of gold.
• Gold doré bars containing 724 ounces of gold were shipped to a refinery facility in Switzerland, and subsequently sold to Auramet for gross proceeds of $[3.4] million.
• The Company further shipped 84 ounces of gold to a specialised refinery in the UK for further refining and accreditation as Single Mine Origin (“SMO”) gold, which will be available for purchase by the local Greenlandic population and jewellery makers.
• In May 2025, Amaroq announced the results of its successful 2024 exploration results across the Company’s strategic minerals portfolio JV, Gardaq AS.
• Operations at Nalunaq continue to ramp up and remain on track to reach nameplate processing capacity of 300 t/d by the end of the year.
  
  

Commissioning and Outlook Highlights

• Significant operational progress throughout Q2-25 has continued into Q3-25.
• With continued up-time in mine development rates and processing throughput of ~145 t/d in July 2025 on a single shift due to continued construction and commissioning work, the Company continues to target a run rate production of 300 t/d by the end of 2025.
• Enhanced liquidity post fundraise has enabled the Company to bring forward certain construction and commissioning activities for the installation of flotation recovery (Phase 2) into the third quarter of 2025, which will require a short period of shut down at the processing facility, however mining will continue as normal.
• Once these activities are completed the processing facility will be calibrated to higher recovery rates, enabling higher cash generation from the facility, which will be further enhanced once it is running at nameplate throughput of 300 t/d.
• As a result of having the flexibility to bring forward this Phase 2 work, and the subsequent period of shut down, the Company is targeting full year production of approximately 5koz for the full year 2025.

The report is available on the Company’s website at https://www.amaroqminerals.com/responsibility/#tab-sustainabilityreport .
  
  

Services and Renewable Energy business lines
Alongside the Company’s focus on its two key pillars of mining development and exploration, below is an update on the two mining associated business units:

• Suliaq ApS - During Q2-25, the Company incorporated a subsidiary entity called Suliaq ApS in order to create a standalone business which will look to take advantage of the increased interest in mining and infrastructure in Greenland, through the provision of Amaroq’s equipment and services, generating additional revenue. In addition, on 28 May 2025, the Company signed a non-binding head of terms with JLE, whereby JLE will invest £4.0 million, by way of an equity contribution in exchange for a 10% shareholding in the subsidiary company, with Amaroq holding 90%. JLE has the option to increase its investment up to a total of £12.0 million, structured in additional tranches of £4.0 million, which will result in proportional increases in JLE’s equity stake in the company. During the second half of 2025 a Board and management team will be put in place and initial contracts for the rental of equipment and services to third parties and other companies controlled by the Company, will be finalised.
• Renewable energy generation – Power generation and energy provision are some of the most expensive and polluting cost items within remote mining operations. To de-risk the future life of mine at Nalunaq, whilst at the same time investing in technologies to power the future mines, the Corporation is in advanced plans for the construction of at least one mega watt (“MW”) of hydro power, within close proximity of Nalunaq. During the second half of 2025, following the request for the trial pit investigation licence in July 2025, designs will be finalised and tenders for turbine, generator, transformer, powerhouse & penstock will be solicited, ahead of the publication of the prefeasibility report and application for the project to take place within the existing Nalunaq Mine Plan framework by the end of 2025, allowing for construction and power generation in 2026. It is anticipated that by year end 2025, the hydro electric business will be formally incorporated in Greenland, under the name IMEQ ApS.

Strategic Acquisitions and West Greenland Hub
Further to the announcement on 11 June 2025, the Company has signed the asset purchase agreement for the acquisition of the Kangerluarsuk licences from 80 Mile plc (and Disko Exploration Ltd). Preparations for completion are underway. For the Black Angel transaction with FBC Mining (BA) Limited, which includes the former producing mine and associated infrastructure, the parties are progressing the agreed conditions precedent. On completion, these acquisitions will form the West Greenland Hub as previously outlined.

Update on Impact Benefit Agreement
Additionally, the Company provides an update on the progress of the Impact Benefit Agreement (IBA).

Amaroq has been actively working in collaboration with the Government of Greenland and Kommune Kujalleq to advance the IBA. However, due to the Government of Greenland’s need to address competing priorities, and in recognition of these circumstances, an extension of the deadline to 31 December 2025 has been agreed. Amaroq remains fully committed to its collaborative approach to ensure the IBA reflects the shared objectives of all parties. This delay to the formalization of the IBA will not impact current and future operations.

Details of conference call
A conference call for analysts and investors will be held this morning at 9:30am BST, including a management presentation and Q&A session.

As of June 19, 2024, the Corporation completed its continuance from the Canada Business Corporations Act into the Province of Ontario under the Business Corporations Act (Ontario).The Corporation’s head office is situated at 100 King Street West, Suite 3400, First Canadian Place, Toronto, Ontario, M5X 1A4, Canada. The Corporation operates in one industry segment, being the acquisition, exploration and development of mineral properties. It owns interests in properties located in Greenland. The Corporation’s financial year ends on December 31. Since July 2017, the Corporation’s shares are listed on the TSX Venture Exchange (the “TSX-V”). Since July 2020, the Corporation’s shares are also listed on the AIM market of the London Stock Exchange (“AIM”) and from November 1, 2022, on Nasdaq First North Growth Market Iceland which were transferred on September 21, 2023 on Nasdaq Main Market Iceland (“Nasdaq”) under the AMRQ ticker. Since July 2025, the Corporation’s shares trade on the OTCQX ® Best Market (“OTCQX”) in the United States of America under the AMRQF ticker.

These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2025 (“Financial Statements”) were reviewed and authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on August 14, 2025.

1.1 Basis of presentation and consolidation

The Financial Statements include the accounts of the Corporation and those of its subsidiary Nalunaq A/S, corporation incorporated under the Greenland Public Companies Act, owned at 100%. The Financial Statements also include the Corporation’s 51% equity share of Gardaq A/S, a joint venture with GCAM LP (Note 6).

The Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards and International Accounting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board and interpretations (collectively IFRS Accounting Standards) including International Accounting Standard (“IAS”) 34, Interim Financial Reporting. The Financial Statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for financial instruments at fair value.

1.2 Accounting policies

The Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024, which have been prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB. The accounting policies, methods of computation and presentation applied in these Financial Statements are consistent with those of the previous financial year ended December 31, 2024, except as for the implementation of IFRS 15 during the six months ended June 30, 2025 as a result of the Corporation commencing gold sales.

The Corporation recognises revenue from the sale of gold when control of gold has transferred to the customer and the performance obligations are satisfied, which occurs when legal title and the significant risks and rewards of ownership have passed to the customer and the Corporation has no continuing managerial involvement with the goods.

1.3 Going concern

The Financial Statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Corporation is transitioning from development to production at its flagship Nalunaq project. While initial commissioning activities have commenced, the Corporation has not yet generated significant revenues and continues to incur development and operating costs. The ability of the Corporation to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the successful ramp-up of production and achievement of positive operating cash flows to fund ongoing operations and capital commitments.

2. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGMENTS AND ASSUMPTIONS

The preparation of the Financial Statements requires Management to make judgments and form assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the Financial Statements and reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, Management evaluates its judgments in relation to assets, liabilities and expenses. Management uses past experience and various other factors it believes to be reasonable under the given circumstances as the basis for its judgments. Actual outcomes may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions.

In preparing the Financial Statements, the significant judgements made by Management in applying the Corporation accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those that applied to the Corporation’s audited annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024.

In the event that the related party payable balance is less than GBP 5,000,000, the Corporation shall, no later than 10 business days after the third anniversary of Completion:

a)   subscribe to one Amaroq share by conversion of the amount payable to the Corporation,
b)   subscribe to one Amaroq share at a subscription price equal to GBP 5,000,000 less the amount payable to the Corporation

In the event that the amount payable to the Corporation exceeds GBP 5,000,000, the Corporation shall subscribe to the Amaroq shares at a subscription price equal to GBP 5,000,000 by conversion of GBP 5,000,000 of the amount due from Gardaq. Gardaq shall not be liable to repay any of the balance payable to the Corporation that exceeds GBP 5,000,000 (equivalent to CAD 9,360,450 as at June 30, 2025).

During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Corporation reclassified the financial asset as a current asset since the amount will be settled during April 2026.

The closure plan has been developed in accordance with the guidelines of Section 43(2) of the Mineral Resources Act of Greenland. This obligation will be settled towards the end of the mine’s life, which is estimated to be during the year 2035. The Corporation has set up an escrow account with the Government of Greenland as beneficiary as security for fulfilling the closure obligations (note 5).

The Corporation has determined that the obligation’s costs will be incurred mainly in Danish Krone (DKK) and has utilized DKK foreign exchange rates and risk-free rates on government bonds to measure the obligation. Accretion of discount for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 of $284,025 and $586,837 respectively ($nil for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024) includes both the foreign exchange impact and accretion of the obligation as they both affect estimated future cash flows.

14.2 Restricted Share Unit

14.2.1 Description

Conditional awards were made in 2022 that give participants the opportunity to earn restricted share unit awards under the Corporation’s Restricted Share Unit Plan (“RSU Plan”) subject to the generation of shareholder value over a four-year performance period.

The awards are designed to align the interests of the Corporation’s employees and shareholders by incentivising the delivery of exceptional shareholder returns over the long-term. Participants receive a 10% share of a pool which is defined by the total shareholder value created above a 10% per annum compound hurdle.

The awards comprise three tranches, based on performance measured from January 1, 2022, to the following three measurement dates:

• First Measurement Date: December 31, 2023;
• Second Measurement Date: December 31, 2024; and
• Third Measurement Date: December 31, 2025.
  
  

Restricted share unit awards granted under the RSU Plan as a result of achievement of the total shareholder return performance conditions are subject to continued service, with vesting as follows:

• Awards granted after the First Measurement Date - 50% vest after one year, 50% vest after three years.
• Awards granted after the Second Measurement Date - 50% vest after one year, 50% vest after two years.
• Awards granted after the Third Measurement Date - 100% vest after one year.
  
  

The maximum term of the awards is therefore four years from grant.

14. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION(CONT’D)

The Corporation’s starting market capitalization is based on a fixed share price of $0.552. Value created by share price growth and dividends paid at each measurement date will be calculated with reference to the average closing share price over the three months ending on that date.

• After December 31, 2023, 100% of the pool value at the First Measurement Date is delivered as restricted share units under the RSU Plan, subject to the maximum number of shares that can be allotted not being exceeded.
• After December 31, 2024, the pool value at the Second Measurement Date is reduced by the pool value from the First Measurement Date (increased in line with share price movements between the First and Second Measurement Dates). 100% of the remaining pool value, if any, is delivered as restricted share units under the RSU Plan.
• After December 31, 2025, the pool value at the Third Measurement Date is reduced by the pool value from the Second Measurement Date (increased in line with share price movements between the Second and Third Measurement Dates), and then further reduced by the pool value from the First Measurement Date (increased in line with share price movements between the First Measurement Date and the Third Measurement Date). 100% of the remaining pool value, if any, is delivered as restricted share units under the RSU Plan.
  
  

On August 14, 2024, the Corporation granted a new conditional award under a separate RSU plan to the Corporation 's newly appointed Chief Financial Officer. This award entitles the participant to receive a 12% share of a pool defined by the total shareholder value created above a 10% per annum compound hurdle rate. Performance is measured from August 6, 2024, to the measurement date on December 31, 2025 (note 14.2.4).

On December 19, 2024, the Corporation granted new RSUs to its employees. The awards will vest on December 19, 2025, the one-year anniversary of the grant, with all other terms governed by the RSU Plan.

On April 11, 2025, 3,329,704 restricted shares vested and were converted to common shares and transferred to capital stock.

14.2.2 RSU Plan Amendment

The RSU Plan was amended by the Annual General Shareholders’ meeting on June 14, 2024. The approved amendments to the RSU Plan indicated that Investor Relations Service Providers (as defined in the RSU Plan) cannot be granted any RSUs. In addition, as the RSU Plan is a "rolling " plan, under Policy 4.4 of the TSXV, a listed company on the TSXV is required to obtain the approval of its Shareholders for a "rolling " plan at each annual meeting of Shareholders.

14.2.3 Conditional Award under RSU Plan 2023

On October 13, 2023, Amaroq made an award (the “Award”) under the RSU Plan as detailed below. The Award consists of a conditional right to receive value if the future performance targets, applicable to the Award, are met. Any value to which the participants are eligible in respect of the Award will be granted as Restricted Share Units (each an “RSU”), with each RSU entitling a participant to receive common shares in the Corporation. Each RSU will be granted under, and governed in accordance with, the rules of the Corporation 's Restricted Share Unit Plan.

14.2.5 Valuation

The fair value of the award granted in December 2022 and modified June 2023, in addition to the award granted October 13, 2023, increased to $7,378,000 based on 90% of the available pool being awarded.

During June 2024, some of the awards were forfeited due to the departure of Jaco Crouse, CFO of the Corporation, effective June 3, 2024. As a result of the departure, previously recognised RSU award vesting charges of $566,875 were reversed and the percentage of the pool that was allocated was reduced to 70%.

During August 2024, new awards granted to the CFO increased the percentage of the pool that was allocated to 82%.

A charge of $695,832 and $1,475,177 was recorded during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, (a charge of $449,000 and $898,000 was recorded during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024).
14. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION(CONT’D)

The fair value was obtained through the use of a Monte Carlo simulation model which calculates a fair value based on a large number of randomly generated projections of the Corporation’s share price.

20. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT

The Corporation is exposed to various risks through its financial instruments. The following analysis provides a summary of the Corporation 's exposure to and concentrations of risk at June 30, 2025:

20.1 Credit Risk

Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will cause financial loss for the other party by failing to discharge an obligation. The Corporation’s main credit risk relates to its prepaid amounts to suppliers for placing orders, manufacturing and delivery of process plant equipment, as well as an advance payment to a mining contractor. The Corporation performed expected credit loss assessment and assessed the amounts to be fully recoverable.

20.2 Fair Value

Financial assets and liabilities recognized or disclosed at fair value are classified in the fair value hierarchy based upon the nature of the inputs used in the determination of fair value. The levels of the fair value hierarchy are:

• Level 1 - Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
• Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices)
• Level 3 - Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (i.e., unobservable inputs)
  
  

The following table summarizes the carrying value of the Corporation’s financial instruments:

	June 30, 2025	December 31, 2024
	$	$
Cash	86,010,495	45,193,670
Deposit	178,541	181,871
Interest receivable	107,500	114,064
Financial Asset – Related Party	7,719,717	6,699,179
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities	(19,843,329)	(18,233,113)
Loans payable	(40,249,134)	(28,621,732)
Lease liabilities	(152,845)	(710,713)

Due to the short-term maturities of cash, financial asset – related party, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities, the carrying amounts of these financial instruments approximate fair value at the respective balance sheet date.

The carrying value of the loans payable approximate its fair value as the loans were entered into towards the end of the financial year.

The carrying value of lease liabilities approximate its fair value based upon a discounted cash flows method using a discount rate that reflects the Corporation’s borrowing rate at the end of the period.

20.3 Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Corporation will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities. The Corporation seeks to ensure that it has sufficient capital to meet short-term financial obligations after taking into account its exploration and operating obligations and cash on hand. On December 30, 2024, the Corporation closed a new US$35 million revolving credit facility with Landsbankinn that refinanced its existing loans payable, fund general and administrative costs, exploration and evaluation costs and Nalunaq project development costs (note 10.3). The Corporation’s options to enhance liquidity include the issuance of new equity instruments or debt.

20. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT(CONT’D)

The following table summarizes the carrying amounts and contractual maturities of financial liabilities:

	As at June 30, 2025	As at December 31, 2024
	Accounts payable and accrued liabilities	Loan payable	Lease liabilities	Accounts payable and accrued liabilities	Loan payable	Lease liabilities
	$	$	$	$	$	$
Within 1 year	19,843,329	40,249,134	83,410	18,233,113	28,621,732	150,850

Total	19,843,329	40,249,134	161,041	18,233,113	28,621,732	812,853

The Corporation has assessed that it is not exposed to significant liquidity risk due to its cash balance in the amount of $86,010,495 and the availability of undrawn credit facilities at the end of the period.

21. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

21.1 Strategic Acquisitions

As part of the Corporation’s strategy to expand its Greenlandic footprint and diversify its commodity exposure, on June 11, 2025 Amaroq announced the acquisition of the entire issued share capital of Black Angel Mining A/S (“Black Angel”) from FBC Mining (BA) Limited (“FBC Mining "), as well as the proposed acquisition of the Kangerluarsuk licences from 80 Mile plc (“80 Mile”) to create the West Greenland Hub. The Corporation entered into a binding, conditional share sale and purchase agreement with FBC Mining, with a consideration of US$10 million, for the Black Angel acquisition; and a binding, conditional memorandum of understanding with 80 Mile and Disko Exploration Ltd, with an initial consideration of US$0.5 million and a potential deferred consideration of US$1.5 million (subject to the delineation of a mineral resource in the licence areas that could support the commencement of a formal Preliminary Economic Assessment, scoping study, or equivalent, which indicates the potential for economic extraction), for the acquisition of the Kangerluarsuk licences.

The initial consideration for both strategic acquisitions and the potential deferred consideration (if any) will be satisfied by the issue of Amaroq shares at prices to be determined with reference to the market price of the Corporation 's common shares prior to closing of each of the strategic acquisitions. Amaroq shares will be issued to satisfy the initial consideration and the deferred consideration, respectively, for the transaction with 80 Mile. Completion of each of the strategic acquisitions are subject to the satisfaction of certain customary conditions precedent (and, in the case of 80 Mile, the negotiation of definitive documentation), including the approval of the TSX-V and the approval of direct and indirect transfers of mineral exploration licences by the Government of Greenland.

The acquisition of Black Angel is a related party transaction.
