    Colm Howlin, CFO of Serabi commented,

    “2025 was a transformative year for Serabi, the 18% increase in annual production which we achieved and the significant increase in gold prices during 2025 allowed us to generate $155.9 million in revenue, a 65% increase over the prior year, leading to a $27.0 million increase in our cash position year on year. Our average gold price achieved in 2025 was $3,481 per ounce, a 45% increase over our average gold price achieved of $2,407 in 2024. The cash generated from operations during 2025 of $55.9 million, an 81% increase over the previous year, allowed us to invest heavily into the future of the Company, with a total of $14.5 million invested in mine development and pre-operating costs as well as $8.15 million in our brownfield exploration programme, which has so far resulted in a significant increase in the Company’s consolidated M&I ounces and Inferred ounces, having drilled 38,400 metres during the year. We will continue to invest in both mine development and exploration in 2026, with another 30,000+ metres of exploration drilling planned for 2026, as we aim to increase our consolidated resource to 1.5+ million ounces and position the Company for growth beyond its current target of 60,000 ounces per annum from 2027 onwards.

    With cash on hand of $49.2 million at the end of 2025, the Company has very strong liquidity to support its growth plans, supported by the continued operational scale-up at Coringa and the ongoing production stability of the Palito mine. Our strong performance has continued into 2026, the Company is now debt free having repaid $5.3 million to Banco Santander in Brazil on 7 January 2026 and finished the first quarter of 2026 with cash on hand of $64.4 million. Our balance sheet has never looked stronger which gives us the opportunity to self-fund our organic growth as well as offering us strategic flexibility in terms of M&A opportunities should an appropriate opportunity arise.

    I am very pleased that the Board has approved the Company’s first annual dividend of 5 pence per share (equivalent to approximately 7 cents per share), which is a total dividend payment of approximately $5.41 million or 20% of the free cash flow achieved in 2025. The proposed dividend is within our target range and leaves the Company with funds to continue to invest in our long-term growth strategy which will bring long-term value to our shareholders.

    While 2025 was an excellent year in terms of production, cash generation and planning for our future organic growth, cost discipline remains critical as expansion continues. Our All in Sustaining Cost in 2025 was $1,816 per ounce and our Cash Costs was $1,437 per ounce. With the increase in activity, particularly at the Coringa mine, we now employ over 1,000 people between the Palito Complex and the Coringa mine, so it is paramount to us to continue to remain disciplined with cost control but to also offer our employees and the local communities in which they live as much support as possible.

    Our approach to ESG is increasingly embedded in our financial performance and we continue to invest in projects which will help us with our environmental controls, reducing emissions and improving our management of water usage in our systems. Our approach to ESG is a key element of our overall risk management and value protection planning. In 2024 we created the Sustainability Committee and our ESG policies now play a role in executive compensation with ESG metrics making up 15% of our 2026 Employee Long Term Incentive Plans.

    From a personal perspective, I am very happy with my first year as Chief Financial Officer, especially as we had a record year in terms of cash generation, but this is all underpinned by our strong production performance which is as a result of the excellent work achieved by the operations Department. I would like to take this opportunity to thank all my colleagues for all their excellent work in 2025 as their efforts made my first year as CFO as enjoyable and productive as possible.”

    Statement from the Chair of Serabi, Michael Lynch-Bell:

    Dear Shareholders,
    I am pleased to introduce to you this year’s Annual Report. Whilst 2025 was yet another remarkable year for Serabi, I am pleased to report that the momentum in our growth has continued through 2026, as the Company remains on track for executing its growth strategy. In 2025, we delivered on a number of key milestones that I believe position the Company for further value-accretive growth, underpinning long-term returns for our shareholders and reinforcing our resilience amidst market volatility.

    Health & Safety
    Ensuring the health and safety of the Group’s workforce is fundamental to the way we operate. Although 2025 saw progress in improving our safety performance, the occurrence of two fatalities in early 2026 is a stark reminder of the challenges that remain. These incidents have prompted a renewed focus on strengthening the Group’s safety culture, systems and accountability. A number of new initiatives have been implemented locally, including an external audit of health & safety practices, hiring of additional health & safety personnel to continue driving a safe operating culture amongst the work force, and support for employees and families. The Board is engaged in supporting management as they implement these efforts, working towards the achievement of consistent safe outcomes across all operations.

    Production Growth
    Following the commissioning of the classification plant at Coringa in 2024 and continued operation of it throughout 2025, we were able to increase our production by 18% year-on-year. The growth in production was not only driven by the classification plant, but by the continued ramp up of Coringa, as we were able to access a second zone, the Meio zone, during the year which contributed meaningful growth. In 2025, progress was made on accessing a third zone through the advancement of the ramp to the Galena zone, which will, when finished, complete the ramp up at Coringa and enable the Company’s goal of achieving a run-rate of 55,000 ounces of gold per annum with the current 650tpd processing capacity. Looking ahead into 2026, we expect the production growth to continues, with guidance at 53,000 to 57,000 ounces of gold, demonstrating the focus of the management team on executing our growth strategy.

    Growth Beyond 55,000 ounces per annum
    We achieved a number of milestones for our business in 2025 to position Serabi for growth to 55,000 ounces of gold in 2026.

    In the first of a two years ‘aggressive’ brownfield exploration programme, with the goal of growing our consolidated resource to 1.5+ million ounces, which will ultimately underpin a production scenario beyond 60,000 ounces of gold per annum from 2027 onwards, the Company drilled 38,400m which has already contributed to the growth of our consolidated M&I resource to 731,000 ounces of gold and Inferred resource to 653,000 ounces of gold. Whilst a significant discovery was made at Coringa, there were many additional veins which were drilled on both properties and incorporated into the updated mineral resource estimate. The results of the first year alone, reinforce the Company’s understanding of the wealth of brownfield mineralisation available near its mines and we therefore remain optimistic that the second year of our brownfield exploration programme will achieve the targeted growth range.

    In anticipation of this resource growth, the Company announced in early 2026 that a fourth ball mill would be installed at the Palito Complex, to increase the processing capacity from 650tpd to approximately 900tpd. This ball mill is expected to be operational by Q4-2026 and will be critical in providing the Company with a materially increased annual production run-rate.

    Whilst our stand-alone strategy envisions growing the Palito Complex and Coringa into a consolidated +100,000 ounce per annum producer, we remain amenable to inorganic growth opportunities, utilising a disciplined approach to M&A. Whilst we believe that the best use of surplus cash in the short-term is to further drive organic growth, we will continue to evaluate investment opportunities and risk against shareholder return strategies.

    ESG
    I am proud to present today our 2025 Sustainability Report, incorporated into this Annual Report beginning on page 31. This marks an important step in the continued evolution of our governance and disclosure practices. The Board has long recognised the importance of environmental, social and governance considerations in supporting the Company’s long-term resilience and value creation. This report reflects our commitment to greater transparency and provides stakeholders with a clearer understanding of how these factors are embedded within our strategy, risk oversight and operational decision making.

    In 2024, Serabi created the Sustainability Committee to ensure that the principles of sustainability were not only embedded, but also continuously strengthened and advanced across all Company decisions. The Sustainability Report is a reflection of more than two decades of an operating model that recognises, values, understands and respects the Tapajós region and its people, and most importantly, symbolises our commitment to responsible stewardship.

    Dividend
    The Board has recommended the Company’s inaugural annual dividend for the 2025 financial year of £0.05 pence per share (equivalent to $0.07 cents per share), marking an important milestone in our capital allocation framework. In establishing this initial distribution, we have adopted a prudent approach, setting the payout at the lower end of our target range, consistent with our disciplined approach to balancing shareholder returns with reinvestment in the business. This reflects both our confidence in the Company’s underlying cash generation and our commitment to maintaining financial flexibility. The Board believes this represents an appropriate first step in establishing a sustainable dividend policy, while preserving capital to support strategic opportunities, including potential value-accretive M&A opportunities, as we strive to become +100,000 ounce producer in the coming years. The Board currently expects to adopt a similar payout range for the financial year 2026.

    Notes
    1.        General Information

    The financial information set out above for the years ended 31 December 2025 and 31 December 2024 does not constitute statutory accounts as defined in Section 434 of the Companies Act 2006 but is derived from those accounts. Whilst the financial information included in this announcement has been compiled in accordance with UK-adopted international accounting standards (UK IAS), this announcement itself does not contain sufficient financial information to comply with UK IAS. A copy of the statutory accounts for 2024 has been delivered to the Registrar of Companies and those for 2025 will be delivered to the Registrar of Companies following approval by shareholders at the Annual General Meeting. The full audited financial statements for the years end 31 December 2025 and 31 December 2024 comply with IFRS.

    2.        Auditor’s Opinion

    The auditor has issued an unqualified opinion in respect of the financial statements for both 2025 and 2024 which do not contain any statements under the Companies Act 2006, Section 498(2) or Section 498(3).

    3.        Basis of Preparation

    The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with international accounting standards in conformity with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006. The parent and consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with UK-adopted international accounting standards (UK IAS) and with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 as applicable to companies reporting under those standards.

    On 31 December 2020, IFRS as adopted by the European Union at that date was brought into the UK law and became UK-adopted international accounting standards, with future changes being subject to endorsement by the UK Endorsement Board. The Group prepares its consolidated financial statements in accordance with UK IAS.

    Accounting standards, amendments and interpretations effective in 2025

    The following Accounting standards came into effect as of 1 January 2025

    Lack of Exchangeability – Amendments to IAS 21 1 January 2025

    There is no material impact on the financial statements from the adoption of these new accounting standards or amendments to accounting standards,

    Certain new accounting standards and interpretations have been published that are not mandatory for the current period and have not been early adopted. These standards are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s current or future reporting periods.

    4.        Going concern and availability of finance

    The Group’s business activities, together with the factors likely to affect its future development, performance and position, are set out in the Group Strategic Report. The financial position of the Group, its cash flows, and liquidity position are described in the Chief Financial Officer’s Review and set out in the Group Financial Statements. Further details of the Group’s commitments and maturity analysis of financial liabilities are set out in note 23 and 25 respectively of the Group Financial Statements. In addition, note 22 to the Group Financial Statements includes the Group’s objectives, policies and processes for managing its capital; its financial risk management objectives; details of its financial instruments; and its exposures to credit risk and liquidity risk.

    The Directors have a reasonable expectation that, after taking into account reasonably possible changes in trading performance, and the current macroeconomic situation, the Group has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus, they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the Financial Statements. Further details are provided in Going Concern section of the Group Strategic Report.

    5.        Other income and expense

    In 2024 the receipts and expenditures relating to a copper exploration alliance with Vale, which the Group announced on 10 May 2023, were recognised through the income statement. As this is not the principal business activity of the Group these receipts and expenditures were classified as other income and other expenses.

    Exploration and development of copper deposits is not the core activity of the Group and further funding beyond the Phase 1 commitment would be required before a judgment could be made as to a project being commercially viable. There is a significant cost involved in developing new copper deposits and it is unlikely that, without the financial support of a partner, the Group would independently seek to develop a copper project in preference to any of its existing gold projects and discoveries

    9.        Post balance sheet events

    On 16 January 2026, the Group repaid Banco Santander in Brazil US$5.3 million relating to the short term working capital loan plus interest which the Group had previously entered into on 22 January 2025. As a result, at the time of writing, the Group is debt free.

    Except as set out above, there has been no item, transaction or event of a material or unusual nature likely, in the opinion of the Directors of the Company, to affect significantly the continuing operation of the entity, the results of these operations, or the state of affairs of the entity in future financial periods.

    Forward-looking statements
    Certain statements in this announcement are, or may be deemed to be, forward looking statements. Forward looking statements are identified by their use of terms and phrases such as ‘‘believe’’, ‘‘could’’, “should” ‘‘envisage’’, ‘‘estimate’’, ‘‘intend’’, ‘‘may’’, ‘‘plan’’, ‘‘will’’ or the negative of those, variations or comparable expressions, including references to assumptions. These forward-looking statements are not based on historical facts but rather on the Directors’ current expectations and assumptions regarding the Company’s future growth, results of operations, performance, future capital and other expenditures (including the amount, nature and sources of funding thereof), competitive advantages, business prospects and opportunities. Such forward looking statements reflect the Directors’ current beliefs and assumptions and are based on information currently available to the Directors. A number of factors could cause actual results to differ materially from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements including risks associated with vulnerability to general economic and business conditions, competition, environmental and other regulatory changes, actions by governmental authorities, the availability of capital markets, reliance on key personnel, uninsured and underinsured losses and other factors, many of which are beyond the control of the Company. Although any forward-looking statements contained in this announcement are based upon what the Directors believe to be reasonable assumptions, the Company cannot assure investors that actual results will be consistent with such forward looking statements.
