PRODUCTION AND OPERATION OVERVIEW

Nampala production was 12,957 ounces for Q1 2024, compared to 11,735 ounces for the same period in 2023 ("Q1 2023"). This is attributable to increased plant productivity and higher feed content than anticipated.

The increase in gold sales revenues by 18% in Q1 2024 to $39,182,893 compared to $33,179,878 in Q1 2023 is explained by a mix of higher gold sold (+1,401 ounces to 14,071 ounces) and higher realized selling price per ounce of gold sold1 of $2,785 (+6%).

AISC per ounce of gold sold1 decreased to $1,134 in Q1 2024 from $1,472 in Q1 2023. This is due to increased production and optimized operational costs as well as a reduction in sustaining capital expenditures of $1,702,176.

Operating mining income for Q1 2024 is stable at $17,242,483. Despite an increase in depreciation of property, plant and equipment due to the reduction in mine life, this improvement was done by higher gold sales revenues and lower mining expenses.

While operating income is improving from $9,131,400 to $11,755,444, net result is impacted by a provision for tax contingencies in Mali of CFAF 19.3bn, or approximately $44m, recorded as an income tax expense. Net income stands at $(32,082,454) for Q1 2024. In response, the Company is vigorously defending its positions and is currently in negotiations with the Malian authorities to establish a new tax framework.

CASH FLOW

Cash flow from operating activities generated $20,907,386 in Q1 2024 compared to $12,909,162 in Q1 2023.

Cash flow investing activities amounted to $(16,041,633) dedicated to maintenance capital costs at Nampala and development capital costs at Kiniero.

Cash flow from financing activities was neutral at $(60,211).

LIQUIDITY AND BALANCE SHEET

Robex cash position increased from $12,221,978 as of December 31st, 2023, to $16,604,181 as at March 31st 2024.

Net debt1 stood at $43,796,068 as of March 31st, 2024, decreasing from $46,628,545 as of December 31st, 2023.

DETAILED INFORMATION

We strongly recommend that readers consult Robex's Management's Discussion and Analysis and Consolidated Financial Statements for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024, which are available on Robex's website at www.robexgold.com and under the Company’s profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca for a more complete discussion of the Company’s operational and financial results.

NON-IFRS AND OTHER FINANCIAL MEASURES

The Company's consolidated financial statements for the period ended March 31, 2024, available under the Company's profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca, are prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards ("IFRS") as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB).

However, the Company also discloses the following non-IFRS financial measures, non-IFRS financial ratios and supplementary financial measures in this news release, for which there is no definition in IFRS: adjusted net income attributable to common shareholders, all-in sustaining cost and net debt (non-IFRS financial measures); adjusted net income attributable to common shareholders per share, all-in sustaining cost per ounce of gold sold (non-IFRS ratios); and cash flow from operating activities per share, average realized selling price per ounce of gold sold and total cash cost per ounce of gold sold (supplementary financial measures). The Company's management believes that these measures provide additional insight into the Company’s operating performance and trends and facilitate comparisons across reporting periods. However, the non-IFRS measures disclosed in this news release do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS, they may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Accordingly, they are intended to provide additional information to investors and other stakeholders and should not be considered in isolation from, confused with or construed as a substitute for performance measures calculated according to IFRS.

These non-IFRS financial measures and ratios and supplementary financial measures and non-financial information are explained in more detail below and in the "Non-IFRS and Other Financial Measures" section of the Company’s Management's Discussion and Analysis for the period ended March 31, 2024 ("MD&A"), which is incorporated by reference in this news release, filed with securities regulatory authorities in Canada, available under the Company's profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca and on the Company's website at www.robexgold.com. Reconciliations and calculations between non-IFRS financial measures and the most comparable IFRS measures are set out below in the "Reconciliations and Calculations" section of this news release.

RECONCILIATIONS AND CALCULATIONS

Total cash cost per ounce of gold sold

Total cash cost per ounce of gold sold is a supplementary financial measure. This measure is calculated by dividing the sum of operating expenses and mining royalties by the number of ounces of gold sold. These expenses include:

• Operating and maintenance supplies and services;
• Fuel;
• Reagent;
• Employee benefits expenses;
• Change in inventory;
• Less: production costs capitalized as stripping costs; and
• Transportation costs.

Management uses this ratio to establish the profitability of mining operations, considering operating expenses in relation to the number of ounces of gold sold.

	For Quarter Ending March 31st
	2024		2023
Ounces of gold sold	14,071		12,670
(in dollars)
Mining operating expenses	9,811,669		11,253,028
Mining royalties	1,461,631		1,019,632
Total cash cost	11,273,300		12,272,660
Total cash cost (per ounce of gold sold)	801		969

All-in sustaining cost and all-in sustaining cost per ounce of gold sold

AISC is a non-IFRS financial measure. AISC includes cash operating costs plus sustaining capital expenditures and stripping costs per ounce of gold sold. The Company has classified its sustaining capital expenditures which are required to maintain existing operations and capitalized stripping costs. AISC is a broad measure of cash costs, providing more information on total cash outflows, capital expenditures and overhead costs per unit. It is intended to reflect the costs associated with producing the Company's principal metal, gold, in the short term and over the life cycle of its operations.

AISC per ounce of gold sold is a non-IFRS ratio. AISC per ounce of gold sold is calculated by adding the total cash cost, which is the sum of mining operating expenses and mining royalties, to sustaining capital expenditures and then dividing by the number of ounces of gold sold. The Company reports AISC per ounce of gold sold to provide investors with information on the main measures used by management to monitor the performance of the Nampala Mine in commercial production and its ability to generate a positive cash flow.

The table below provides a reconciliation of AISC for the current period and the comparative period to the most directly comparable financial measure in the financial statements: "mining operating expenses".

All-in sustaining cost	15,952,851		18,654,387
All-in sustaining cost (per ounce of gold sold)	1,134		1,472

Net debt

Net debt is a non-IFRS financial measure that represents the total amount of bank indebtedness, including lines of credit and long-term debt, as well as lease liabilities, less cash at the end of a given period. Management uses this metric to analyze the Company's debt position and assess the Company's ability to service its debt.

Net debt is calculated as follows:

	March 31st, 2024		December 31st, 2023
	$		$
Lines of credit	5,236,572		4,953,133
Bridge loan	47,045,343		45,530,538

Adjusted net income attributable to common shareholders and adjusted net income attributable to common shareholders per share

Adjusted net income attributable to common shareholders is defined as adjusted net earnings attributable to common shareholders of the Company divided by the weighted average number of basic shares outstanding for the period. It consists of basic and diluted net earnings attributable to common shareholders adjusted for certain specified items that are significant, but which management believes do not reflect the underlying operations of the Company. These costs include foreign exchange gains (losses), change in the fair value of share purchase warrants, and the provision for tax contingencies, all divided by the weighted average number of shares outstanding.

The table below provides a reconciliation of adjusted net income attributable to common shareholders for the current period and the comparative period to the most directly comparable financial measure in the financial statements: "basic and diluted net income attributable to common shareholders." This reconciliation is provided on a consolidated basis.

Adjusted basic earnings per share (in dollars)	0.149		0.066

Cash flow from operating activities per share

Cash flow from operating activities per share is a supplementary financial measure. It is composed of cash flow from operating activities divided by the basic weighted average number of shares outstanding. This supplementary financial measure allows investors to understand the Company's financial performance based on cash flows generated from operating activities.

For the period ended March 31, 2024, cash flow from operating activities was equivalent to $20,907,386 and the basic weighted average number of shares outstanding was 90,393,824, for an amount of cash flow from operating activities per share of $0.231. For the period ended March 31, 2023, cash flow from operating activities was $12,909,162 and the basic weighted average number of shares outstanding was 89,957,300, for an amount of cash flow from operating activities per share of $0.144.

Average realized selling price per ounce of gold sold

Average realized selling price per ounce of gold sold is a supplementary financial measure. It is composed of gold sales revenue divided by the number of ounces of gold sold. This measure provides management with a better understanding of the average realized price of gold sold in each financial reporting period, net of the impact of non-gold products, and it allows investors to understand the Company's financial performance based on the average proceeds realized from the sales of gold production during the reporting period.
