Appendix 4E Preliminary Final Report

Summary by AI BETAClose X

Resolute Mining Limited reported a significant turnaround for the year ended December 31, 2025, with revenue increasing by 8% to $865.6 million and a profit after tax of $110.4 million, a substantial improvement from a loss of $28.3 million in the prior year. This positive performance was driven by higher gold prices, with an average realised price of $3,338 per ounce, and reduced operating costs at its Syama and Mako mines, despite a decrease in gold ounces sold to 258,544 oz. The company also saw its operating cash flows more than double to $226.6 million, and its net cash position strengthen to $209.1 million. Investments in business development increased to $119.0 million, including expenditure on the Syama Sulphide Conversion Project and the acquisition of the Doropo and ABC projects. Notably, the company announced the granting of the mining permit for the Doropo Gold Project in Côte d'Ivoire on February 5, 2026, and completed the sale of its Loncor Gold shareholding for $31.45 million USD on February 11, 2026.

Group earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, and amortisation (EBITDA2) of $391.6 million in 2025 was an improvement on the comparative period. This was primarily due to the higher revenue of $865.6 million from gold sales of 258,544 oz (2024: 335,708 oz) at an average realised price of $3,338/oz (2024: $2,383/oz). It also increased due to a reduction in operating costs at both Syama and Mako.

Indirect tax expense costs of $36.8 million have decreased significantly when compared to 2025. This is due to the Protocol settlement payments of $159.9 million that Resolute made to the Government of Mali in late 2024.

On 14 October 2025, Resolute signed a voting agreement to support the sale of it's 31.45 million shares in Loncor Gold to Chengtun Mining Group Co., Ltd resulting in a $31.5 million fair value adjustment.

 

Financial Position

Operating cash flows in 2025 were $226.6 million. Cash flow was significantly higher than in 2024 ($115.0 million) and was primarily driven by consistent operations, a focus on reducing costs, and higher realised gold prices throughout the year.

Cash and cash equivalents at 31 December 2025 was $62.6 million. Net cash‍1,2 was $209.1 million at 31 December 2025 (31 December 2024: $66.3 million). Total borrowings at 31 December 2025 was $57.8 million which are from overdraft facilities in Mali and Senegal.

 

 

In 2025, Resolute increased investment in its business with cash spend on evaluation, development, property, plant, and equipment totalling $119.0 million (2024: $104.8 million). This included expenditure on the Syama Sulphide Conversion Project (SSCP) and on the Doropo and ABC projects which were acquired in May 2025.

 

Syama Gold Mine, Mali

Total gold poured at Syama of 176,341 oz in 2025 was 18% lower than the prior year due to lower head grades at both the sulphide and oxide plants. This was due to increased use of stockpiled material and lower mined grades in the sub-level cave.

Both oxide and sulphide plants maintained high utilisation rates and operated near nameplate capacity of 3.9Mt. The combined ore tonnes mined decreased marginally to 3.0 Mt (vs 3.2 Mt in 2024) as production from the sub-level cave was impacted by disruption of explosive supplies during the second half of the year. The Company has been working on explosive supply chain issues since Q3 and it is not expected to be a major issue in 2026 and moving forward.

Syama's All-In Sustaining Cost (AISC)‍1 for 2025 was $2,008/oz which was 34% higher than in 2024 ($1,497/oz) and was within the revised guidance ($1,900/oz - 2,050/oz). The increase in AISC in 2025 is mainly attributed to increased royalty payments (a sliding scale regime dependent on gold price under the 2023 Mining Code) as well as a reduction in gold poured when compared to the prior year.

 

Mako Gold Mine, Senegal

2025 production from Mako was 100,895 oz at an AISC of $1,270/oz which was within the revised guidance range (98-102 koz). Gold production was lower than the prior year as open pit mining ceased in Q2 2025 and the operation transitioned to stockpile processing during the second half of 2025. The plant will continue to process stockpile material into 2026.

The AISC2 marginally increased by 2% in 2025 which was mainly attributable to increased royalty payments due to higher gold prices as well as lower gold production as the operation transitioned to stockpile processing.

 

 

 

‍1 AISC is a non-GAAP measure that has not been audited and represents all-in sustaining cost.

Doropo Gold Project Mining Permit

 

On 5 February 2026, the Council of Ministers formally announced the granting of the mining permit for the Doropo Gold Project in Côte d'Ivoire. The permit is valid for an initial term of 14 years, with the option to extend. Receipt of the Doropo mining permit represents a significant step toward Resolute's ambition to become a leading multi-asset gold producer in West Africa. This milestone supports the Company's strategy to increase annual gold production to more than 500 koz by the end of 2028 and reinforces its commitment to disciplined growth and long-term shareholder value.

On 11 February 2026, Resolute completed the sale of its shareholding in TSX-listed Loncor Gold Inc. to Chengtun Mining Group Co., Ltd. for cash consideration of $43.4 million CAD ($31.45 million USD).
