Triple Flag Precious Metals Corp. (with its subsidiaries, “Triple Flag” or the “Company”) (TSX: TFPM, NYSE: TFPM) announced strong results for the second quarter of 2026 and declared a dividend of US$0.06 per common share to be paid on September 15, 2026. Unless otherwise indicated, all amounts are expressed in US dollars.
“Triple Flag Precious Metals was founded just over ten years ago in May 2016. I am immensely pleased with the quality of the business that we have built, starting with the Cerro Lindo silver stream which remains a cornerstone of our portfolio a decade later, and most recently our investment of $440 million for a 5.5% gold stream on the Ravenswood Mine, adding immediate cash flow from one of Australia’s largest mines. Over the past 10 years, we have developed a portfolio of 242 streams and royalties that delivers compounding cash flow per share and NAV per share for the benefit of our shareholders. Our Board has approved our fifth consecutive annual dividend increase, continuing our track record of increasing our dividend every year since our 2021 IPO ,” commented Sheldon Vanderkooy, CEO.
“ In the first six months of 2026, we have announced $550 million in accretive transactions located in Australia and the United States, increased our 2026 guidance to 100,000 to 110,000 GEOs, realized record GEOs and cash flow, repurchased $20 million of shares in the open market and received positive project updates from future cornerstone assets such as Hope Bay (Agnico Eagle), Arthur (AngloGold Ashanti) and Koné (Montage Gold). With over $1 billion of available liquidity and a recently increased 2030 outlook of 150,000 to 160,000 GEOs, Triple Flag enters its second decade with more organic growth than at any point in our history .”

Corporate Updates
2026 GEOs Guidance and 2030 Outlook: Triple Flag expects to achieve sales between the midpoint and high end of its recently increased guidance for 2026 of 100,000 to 110,000 GEOs.
We now expect depletion expense in 2026 to range from $70 million to $80 million (from $65 million to $75 million), consistent with the increased GEOs guidance. Actual depletion expense in the first half of 2026 was $36.5 million.
Our 2030 outlook was recently increased to 150,000 to 160,000 GEOs.
Quarterly Dividend Increased for the 5 th Consecutive Year: Triple Flag’s Board of Directors approved the declaration of a quarterly cash dividend of $0.06 per common share that will be paid on September 15, 2026, to shareholders of record at the close of business on August 31, 2026.
Triple Flag’s forward annualized dividend is now US$0.24 per common share, a one cent increase from the previous annualized dividend of US$0.23 per common share. This represents the Company’s fifth consecutive annual increase of the quarterly dividend since its May 2021 initial public offering.
$20 Million of Shares Repurchased in Q2 2026: Triple Flag renewed its normal course issuer bid (“NCIB”) during the fourth quarter of 2025 in accordance with a disciplined capital allocation strategy focused on balance sheet management, returns to shareholders and accretive growth opportunities. During the period from November 17, 2025, to November 16, 2026, Triple Flag is authorized to purchase up to 10,328,075 of its common shares (representing 5% of the Company’s issued and outstanding common shares at the time of the NCIB renewal).
In the second quarter of 2026, Triple Flag bought back 609,100 shares in the open market for $20 million.
Acquisition of $440 Million Gold Stream on the Ravenswood Gold Mine: On June 25, 2026, Triple Flag announced that its wholly owned subsidiary, Triple Flag International Ltd. (“Triple Flag International”), completed the acquisition of a 5.5% gold stream on the Ravenswood Gold Mine in Queensland, Australia with a 10% ongoing payment.
The Ravenswood stream adds immediate cash flow from a large-scale, long-life operation located in a top-tier mining jurisdiction and is underpinned by two years of target gold deliveries. Ravenswood is one of the 10 largest gold mines in Australia by ore reserves, with a long history of continuous operation and historical production of more than 4 million ounces of gold. The operators have extensive global mining experience and have invested over A$830 million into the growth and future of the asset, which is expected to produce more than 200 thousand ounces of gold per annum at steady state. In-pit and near-mine exploration upside also presents a significant opportunity to extend the mine life at Ravenswood across a large and prospective 1,800 km 2 land package.
The first monthly delivery under the Ravenswood gold stream was received in July 2026.
Please refer to the June 12, 2026, press release on our website, _Triple Flag Announces US$440 Million Gold Stream on the Ravenswood Gold Mine and Increases 2030 Outlook, _for further details on the recent transaction.
Quarterly Portfolio Updates
Australia:
Northparkes (54% gold stream and 80% silver stream): Sales from Northparkes in Q2 2026 were 5,337 GEOs.
Gold production from the E48 sub-level cave is continuing its ramp up through 2026.
Development of the E22 block cave is ongoing following the completion of the first cut in the first quarter of 2026, with surface works underway to enable twin access between the E48 and E22 orebodies, which will optimize access, ventilation and materials handling. Evolution Mining Limited ("Evolution") continues to expect initial production from the E22 block cave by the end of its fiscal year 2030.
The study on the 10.0 million tonnes per annum (“Mtpa”) mill expansion at Northparkes is on track for completion by the end of Evolution’s fiscal year ending in June 2027. This study will also contemplate the mining of deposits such as MJH, Major Tom, E51, GRP, E48 Lift 2 and E26 Lift 3. The completion of this study is expected to drive reserve and resource growth at Northparkes.
As previously announced, Triple Flag will invest $84.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2026 for the development of the gold-dominant E44 deposit at Northparkes. As E44 was previously not included in the life-of-mine plan, this investment has unlocked significant incremental value for Triple Flag’s shareholders and is underpinned by guaranteed minimum deliveries of 45,052 ounces of gold and 446,200 ounces of silver over the 2030 to 2037 period. A study on the development of E44 is expected to be completed by the end of June 2027.
Beta Hunt (3.25% GR gold royalty and 1.5% NSR gold royalty): Royalties from Beta Hunt in Q2 2026 equated to 1,031 GEOs.
Westgold Resources Limited (“Westgold”) continues to advance the expansion project to achieve consistent underground mining rates at Beta Hunt of 2.0 Mtpa. The current mining rate is approximately 1.7 Mtpa. Following the installation of a new ventilation system, Westgold expects the 2.0 Mtpa target to be achieved by the end of calendar 2026.
Following the declaration of a maiden resource for the Fletcher Zone in 2025, which effectively doubled the previous Beta Hunt resource, substantial exploration and definition drilling to determine its potential scale is ongoing before its integration into a life-of-mine plan. The Fletcher Zone is a significant discovery at Beta Hunt that is interpreted to represent a new gold mineralized structure parallel to the Western Flanks deposit of the mine and is located 50 meters to the west. The Fletcher Zone is within Triple Flag’s royalty coverage area. The Western Flanks deposit is currently the primary source of gold ore for Beta Hunt. The maiden resource remains open at depth and represents exploration drilling from only approximately half of the known strike length.
In March 2026, Westgold approved an expansion of the Higginsville mill to a nameplate capacity of 2.6 Mtpa (from 1.6 Mtpa), which is expected to be completed during its fiscal year 2028. Notably, Westgold has assumed that the main Beta Hunt operation will provide 2.0 Mtpa of feed to Higginsville, with the remaining balance from the Fletcher Zone during Westgold’s fiscal year 2029. The 2.6 Mtpa expansion flowsheet has been engineered to support future potential growth to 4.0 Mtpa.
Fosterville (2.0% NSR gold royalty): Royalties from Fosterville in Q2 2026 equated to 711 GEOs. In February 2026, Agnico Eagle Mines Limited (“Agnico Eagle”) released a three-year outlook for Fosterville. The operator expects Fosterville to produce between 140 to 160 thousand ounces of gold in each of 2026 and 2027. Notably, annual production is expected to further increase to a new steady-state of 160 to 190 thousand ounces in 2028 and remain at that level through the early 2030s, following the completion of mining and processing initiatives that will drive a 65% boost in throughput to 3,300 tpd in 2028.
During the second quarter of 2026, Agnico Eagle reported that work is ongoing to upgrade the grinding circuit at Fosterville, including the installation of a new BIOX tank.
Latin America:
Cerro Lindo (25% silver stream) : Sales from Cerro Lindo in Q2 2026 were 4,890 GEOs.
The Cerro Lindo silver stream was Triple Flag’s first investment in 2016. Under the stream agreement with Nexa Resources S.A., we receive 65% of payable silver from Cerro Lindo until 19.5 million ounces have been delivered, and 25% thereafter. The 19.5 million silver ounce delivery threshold was reached in April 2026.
Buriticá (100% silver stream, fixed ratio to gold): Sales from Buriticá in Q2 2026 were 2,245 GEOs.
Zijin Gold International Company Limited (“Zijin Gold”) continues to expect throughput at Buriticá to ramp up to 5,000 tpd in 2028 – a material increase from current throughput of 4,000 tpd and Triple Flag’s initial investment base case of 3,000 tpd. Zijin Gold expects 2026 gold production at Buriticá of 9.2 tonnes (approximately 300 thousand ounces of gold).
Despite the ongoing presence of illegal miners, Buriticá has been able to maintain overall steady operations. The operator continues to engage closely with the surrounding community on illegal mining with support from national institutions, including the National Police of Colombia.
Camino Rojo (2.0% NSR gold royalty on oxides): Royalties from Camino Rojo in Q2 2026 equated to 514 GEOs.
In May 2026, Orla Mining Ltd. (“Orla”) and Equinox Gold Corp. (“Equinox”) announced an at-market, all-share merger. The combination closed in July 2026.
In June 2026, Orla reiterated its 2026 production guidance for Camino Rojo of 110 to 120 thousand ounces of gold following an illegal work stoppage. This stoppage was related to bonus negotiations, which concluded with an approved agreement in late June.
Arcata (5% silver and gold streams): Sales from Arcata in Q2 2026 were 223 GEOs. The Arcata silver and gold mine in Peru was re-started during the fourth quarter of 2025, in line with operator guidance.
Sierra Sun Precious Metals S.A.C., the operator, intends to restart Arcata in multiple phases for a ramp-up to steady state throughput of 2,500 tpd. The development of Arcata continues to progress well, with dewatering ongoing to deliver higher mining rates from the underground. Triple Flag continues to expect GEOs from Arcata to rise over the course of this ongoing ramp-up to approximately 5 to 6 thousand GEOs per year by 2028.
Tres Quebradas (0.5% GR lithium royalty): Royalties from Tres Quebradas in Q2 2026 equated to 222 GEOs.
In July 2026, the Government of Argentina announced the approval of the Phase 2 expansion at the Tres Quebradas lithium salar brine asset under the country's Incentive Regime for Large Investments ("RIGI"). The operator, Zijin Mining Group Co., Ltd. ("Zijin Mining"), has committed $709 million of capital for the expansion. Phase 2 will increase nameplate annual production capacity at Tres Quebradas by 40,000 tonnes of lithium carbonate equivalent ("LCE"), to a total capacity of 60,000 to 80,000 tonnes of LCE per year.
The approval of the Phase 2 expansion represents significant upside, as this growth potential was not previously underwritten in Triple Flag’s investment case for this asset. We now expect steady-state GEOs from Phase 2 of Tres Quebradas to commence in the early 2030s.
Minera Florida (0.8 to 1.5% NSR gold royalty): Royalties from Minera Florida in Q2 2026 equated to 107 GEOs. Pan American Silver Corp.’s 2026 production guidance for Minera Florida is 66 to 71 thousand ounces of gold and 0.25 million ounces of silver.
Era Dorada (1.0% NSR gold and silver royalty): In July 2026, Aura Minerals Inc. (“Aura”) announced that the Era Dorada underground gold project in Guatemala is now in full construction, following the approval of the project’s development by its Board of Directors in April. Over a nearly 17-year mine life, Era Dorada is designed to produce 104 thousand ounces of gold per year. Aura expects Era Dorada to commence operations in the first half of 2028.
Ana Paula (2.0% NSR gold and silver royalty): In June 2026, Heliostar Metals Ltd. (“Heliostar”) announced additional high-grade drill results from its 100%-owned Ana Paula project in Guerrero, Mexico. Highlight intercepts include 99.8 meters grading 10.9 g/t Au and 37 meters grading 6.95 g/t Au, supporting the conversion of Inferred resources ahead of a feasibility study targeted for the second quarter of 2027. The current Measured & Indicated resource grade at Ana Paula is 5.40 g/t Au i .
Next steps for Ana Paula include a permit amendment submission (previously permitted as an open pit), continued technical work to support the upcoming feasibility study, and project financing discussions. First gold production is targeted for late 2028. Heliostar expects to finance the construction of Ana Paula from the free cash flow generated by its two operating mines (La Colorada and San Agustin) alongside a project financing facility.
North America:
Johnson Camp Mine (3.5% to 16.5% copper stream on oxide material and 3.0% GR copper royalty): Sales and royalties from Johnson Camp Mine (“JCM”) in Q2 2026 were 424 GEOs.
In May 2026, Gunnison Copper Corp. (“Gunnison Copper”) reported first quarter production of 2.1 million pounds of copper cathode at JCM, processed from run-of-mine oxide material as well as bioleaching of sulphide material under the Rio Tinto Nuton process.
Gunnison Copper continues to advance the ramp-up of JCM to annual nameplate capacity of 25 million pounds of copper cathode by the end of 2026.
Young-Davidson (1.5% NSR gold royalty): Royalties from Young-Davidson in Q2 2026 equated to 379 GEOs.
In June 2026, Alamos Gold Inc. ("Alamos") reported that Young-Davidson experienced two seismic events, one of which occurred at an active mining front. Damaged infrastructure temporarily limited access to higher-grade stopes that had been scheduled for mining in the second quarter and second half of 2026. Alamos expects underground mining rates at Young-Davidson to average approximately 5,000 tonnes per day for the remainder of the year, with mining sequence optimization and additional ground support planned for the second half of 2026 to support higher mining rates beyond 2026.
In July 2026, Alamos released updated 2026 gold production guidance for Young-Davidson of 100 to 115 thousand ounces. Three-year guidance is expected to be released in early 2027.
Florida Canyon (3.0% NSR gold royalty): Royalties from Florida Canyon in Q2 2026 equated to 405 GEOs.
In June 2026, Integra Resources Corp. ("Integra") released an updated life of mine plan for Florida Canyon, which delivered a 74% increase in Proven and Probable gold reserves. Average annual gold production has increased by 17% to approximately 82,000 ounces per year, with a reserve life now ending in 2033. The technical report also assumes an additional two years of residual leaching, including gold production of over 20,000 ounces in 2034 and approximately 7,500 ounces in 2035.
Kensington (1.25% NSR gold royalty): Royalties from Kensington in Q2 2026 equated to 282 GEOs. Coeur Mining, Inc.’s 2026 production guidance for Kensington is 98 to 110 thousand ounces of gold.
Eagle River Complex (0.5% NSR gold royalty): Royalties from Eagle River in Q2 2026 equated to 136 GEOs. In June 2026, Wesdome Gold Mines Ltd. ("Wesdome") announced updated mineral reserves and resources, including reserve growth of 39% at Eagle River. This update further extended Eagle River’s reserve life to 2033.
Separately in June 2026, Wesdome reiterated guidance for Eagle River of 105 to 115 thousand ounces of gold in 2026 and introduced guidance of 100 to 120 thousand ounces in each of 2027 and 2028.
Queensway (0.2% to 0.5% NSR gold royalty): The Queensway open pit and underground gold project is located in Newfoundland, Canada, and is operated by New Found Gold Corp. (“New Found”).
Following the completion of a C$220 million equity and debt financing package in April 2026, construction of open pit operations at Queensway (“Phase 1”) is fully funded to production. Subject to the receipt of permits, New Found continues to target first gold pour from Queensway by the end of 2027. Phase 1 is expected to produce approximately 69,000 ounces of gold per year over four years based on a July 2025 preliminary economic assessment (“PEA”).
Open pit ore from Queensway is expected to be processed at the Pine Cove mill, located 270 kilometers away by road. Conversion of Pine Cove to a 1,400 tpd gravity-CIL circuit is ongoing.
Hope Bay (1.0% NSR gold royalty): In May 2026, Agnico Eagle announced a positive investment decision for the redevelopment of the Hope Bay underground gold project in Nunavut following the completion of a PEA. Based on a 6,000 tpd processing facility, Hope Bay is expected to produce between 400 and 435 thousand ounces of gold per year over an initial 11-year mine life, with production commencing in 2030 from the Patch 7, Doris and Madrid mining fronts.
Notably, the PEA mine plan only incorporates approximately 55% of current Measured and Indicated resources and approximately 48% of Inferred resources at Hope Bay, providing significant upside potential across the 80-kilometer greenstone belt from Doris to Boston.
Exploration is ongoing, with Agnico Eagle planning to drill over 700,000 meters of surface and underground drilling and test more than 90 regional targets over the next five years. During the second quarter of 2026, exploration focused on conversion drilling, which is expected to positively contribute to a pre-feasibility study expected to be completed at year-end 2026. Highlight assays include 18.5 g/t Au over 11.3 meters and 13.7 g/t Au over 15.4 meters at Patch 7.
Separately, Agnico Eagle commenced its first drill program at the Boston deposit since acquiring Hope Bay in 2021. Boston was not included in the May 2026 PEA and is located 50 kilometers south of Madrid.
DeLamar (2.5% NSR gold and silver royalty, partial coverage): As a FAST-41 Covered Project in accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act (“NEPA”), a Notice of Intent was published for the DeLamar gold and silver heap leach project in Idaho in May 2026 to commence the federal permitting process.
