TORONTO, Feb. 05, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Barrick Mining Corporation (NYSE:B)(TSX:ABX) ("Barrick" or the "Company") today reported fourth quarter operating and financial results for the period ending December 31, 2025. Barrick produced 871,000 ounces¹ of gold and 62,000 tonnes¹ of copper in the quarter and the Company generated $6.00 billion in revenue, as well as $2.73 billion in operating cash flow and $1.62 billion in free cash flow.² Net earnings per share for the quarter of $1.43 and adjusted net earnings per share² of $1.04 increased 88% and 79%, respectively, from Q3.

For the full year 2025, Barrick reported revenues of $16.96 billion, operating cash flow of $7.69 billion and free cash flow² of $3.87 billion, increasing 31%, 71% and 194%, respectively, from 2024. Net earnings per share of $2.93 and adjusted net earnings per share² of $2.42 for the full year increased 140% and 92%, respectively, from 2024. Full-year gold production was 3.26 million ounces¹ while full-year copper production was 220,000 tonnes¹, consistent with the guidance provided at the start of the year.

"We reported record quarterly cash flow, delivered on our gold and copper production guidance, and successfully executed our 2025 operating plan. These achievements contributed to record adjusted net earnings per share² in 2025 and the highest shareholder returns in this company's history. On the back of this financial strength, the Board approved a further 40% increase to our quarterly base dividend and a dividend framework to allow shareholders to further participate in our performance," said Mark Hill, President and Chief Executive Officer. "The outstanding finish to 2025 showcases the strength of Barrick's operations and the commitment of its people. The agreement in Mali to secure the release of our colleagues was a major success and I commend all who were involved for this tremendous result."

Mark Hill continued: "As we progress towards an IPO of our North America business to maximize value, we remain steadfast in our focus on operational performance and improving safety. By maintaining a collaborative culture and operational rigor, we are well-positioned to carry our current momentum forward and continue unlocking value from our premier asset portfolio in 2026."

Operational Highlights

Gold production in Q4 was 5% higher than Q3 at 871,000 ounces¹, with cost of sales ("COS")⁴ of $1,904 per ounce, total cash costs ("TCC")² of $1,205 per ounce and all-in sustaining costs ("AISC")² of $1,581 per ounce. Gold COS⁴ per ounce and AISC² per ounce were 22% and 3% higher than Q3, respectively. Nevada Gold Mines performed well across the board in Q4, led by a 25% increase in Carlin's production over Q3. Throughput at Pueblo Viejo rose to another record high and partially offset reduced recoveries from stockpiled material in the flotation and Carbon‑In‑Leach circuits.

Full year 2025 gold production was 17% lower than 2024 at 3.26 million ounces¹, in line with guidance, with COS⁴ of $1,697 per ounce, TCC² of $1,199 per ounce and AISC² of $1,637 per ounce—all slightly above guidance due to higher royalites driven by the higher realized gold price.² TCC² and AISC² were also affected by higher consumable prices, partially driven by tariff impacts.

Copper production in Q4 was 13% higher than Q3 at 62,000 tonnes¹, with COS⁵ of $3.37 per pound, C1 cash costs² of $2.45 per pound and AISC² of $3.61 per pound. Copper COS⁵ per pound and AISC² per pound were 26% and 15% higher than Q3, respectively.

Full year 2025 copper production was 13% higher than 2024 at 220,000 tonnes¹, in line with guidance. Copper COS⁵ for full year 2025 was $2.91 per pound with C1 cash costs² of $2.14 per pound and AISC² of $3.20 per pound—3%, 5% and 7% lower than 2024, respectively. COS⁵ and AISC² were slightly above guidance as a result of higher royalties due to the higher realized copper price.²

Despite a stronger emphasis on safety, two of our colleagues sadly lost their lives in Q4. In addition to the previously disclosed fatal injury at Bulyanhulu on October 21, a team member lost his life at Kibali on December 15. Our thoughts remain with the families, friends and colleagues of the team members who passed away in 2025. We have conducted full investigations into these tragic incidents and have taken actions in an effort to prevent their recurrence. We remain unequivocally committed to prioritizing safety to ensure every person goes home safe and healthy every day.

Financial Highlights

Barrick achieved another record quarterly financial performance, with operating cash flow and free cash flow² of $2.73 billion and $1.62 billion—up 13% and 9% over Q3, respectively. In Q4, Barrick achieved net earnings of $2.41 billion ($1.43 per share) and adjusted net earnings² of $1.75 billion ($1.04 per share) compared to net earnings of $1.30 billion ($0.76 per share) and adjusted net earnings² of $982 million ($0.58 per share) in the prior quarter. Revenues of $6.00 billion in Q4 increased 45% from $4.15 billion in Q3.

Full-year 2025 net earnings were $4.99 billion ($2.93 per share), compared to net earnings of $2.14 billion ($1.22 per share) in 2024—up 133% and 140%, respectively. Adjusted net earnings² in 2025 were $4.14 billion ($2.42 per share), compared to $2.21 billion ($1.26 per share) in 2024—up 87% and 92%, respectively. Full-year revenue increased 31% to $16.96 billion, compared to $12.92 billion in 2024. Operating cash flow in 2025 increased 71% to $7.69 billion, compared to $4.49 billion in 2024. Free cash flow² for 2025 was $3.87 billion, up 194% from $1.32 billion in 2024.

In addition, the previously announced sales of Hemlo and Tongon closed successfully in Q4, bringing proceeds from non-core asset sales to $2.6 billion in 2025, including Donlin and Alturas. Our strong cash flow generation, together with these proceeds from non-core asset sales, increased Barrick's year-end cash balance of $6.71 billion by 65% over 2024—even after delivering record shareholder returns and funding growth projects in 2025.

Key Growth Projects

At Barrick's 100%-owned Fourmile project in Nevada, the team succeeded in doubling the declared gold mineral resource for the second consecutive year—now reporting 2.6 million ounces of indicated resources (4.6 million tonnes at 17.59 grams per tonne) and 13 million ounces of inferred resources (25 million tonnes at 16.9 grams per tonne).³ Ongoing prefeasibility studies point to the potential for significant additional resource growth.³ 2026 is expected to be a critical year at Fourmile, with drilling spend expected to increase to $150–$160 million compared to $91 million in 2025. Planned access via the Bullion Hill Decline is progressing, with development on track to begin in Q4 2026.

The Lumwana expansion remains slightly ahead of schedule, with deliveries of the 2026 mining fleet already underway. At Pueblo Viejo, more than 300 families have now moved into the new community Nuevos Horizontes (‘New Horizons'), and the tailings storage facility construction is on track to support the expansion. The Reko Diq copper-gold project continued to advance site works in Q4, although in light of a recent increase in security incidents management is currently reviewing all aspects of the project.

Quarterly Dividend and New Dividend Policy

Barrick's Board of Directors approved a $0.42 per share quarterly dividend, representing an increase of 140% over the third quarter, and announced a new dividend policy.

During Q4 2025, the Company repurchased $500 million of its shares, with full year 2025 buybacks totaling $1.5 billion, representing about 3.0% of Barrick's issued and outstanding shares. In total, Barrick returned $2.39 billion to shareholders in 2025—a company record.

In Q4 2025 and going forward, the Company's new dividend policy targets a total payout of 50% of attributable free cash flow on an annualized basis, comprised of a fixed base quarterly dividend of $0.175 per share and a performance top-up component at each year end based on the attributable free cash flow during the year. The dividend paid in any given year may be higher or lower than the 50% target based on the strength of cash flow, capital needs, balance sheet considerations and other factors.

Reserves and Resources

2025 gold mineral reserves and resources were calculated using a gold price assumption of $1,500 and $2,000 per ounce, increased from $1,400 and $1,900 in 2024, respectively. Both are reported to a rounding standard of two significant digits for tonnes and metal content, with grades reported to two decimal places.

As of December 31, 2025, Barrick's proven and probable gold mineral reserves were 85 million ounces⁶ at an average grade of 0.98 g/t, compared to 89 million ounces⁷ in 2024 at an average grade of 0.99 g/t. This represents a year-over-year attributable gold mineral reserves decrease of 4.1 million ounces, owing to the divestitures of Tongon and Hemlo (2.2 million-ounce reduction), alongside annual depletion (3.7 million ounces), partially offset by 1.8 million ounces of additions associated with exploration and changes in commodity prices. Although depletion was higher than net conversion by 1.9 million ounces for 2025, the three-year rolling average gold mineral reserve replacement stands close to 190% adding more than 24 million ounces to gold mineral reserves (excluding both acquisitions and divestments), primarily supported by 17 million ounces of net change in the prior year.⁷

Barrick's attributable measured and indicated gold resources for 2025 stand at 150 million ounces⁶ at 1.01 g/t along with inferred resources of 43 million ounce⁶ at 1.0 g/t. Measured and indicated mineral resources reduced by 20 million ounces as a result of the divestiture of Donlin and a further 2.2 million ounces as a result of the divestiture of Alturas. Overall divestitures in 2025 accounted for a reduction of 26 million ounces of measured and indicated mineral resources and 7.3 million ounces of inferred mineral resources, respectively.

Copper mineral reserves for Barrick-operated assets as of December 31, 2025 are estimated using a copper price assumption of $3.25 per pound, increased from $3.00 per pound in 2024. Copper mineral resources for 2025 are estimated using a price of $4.50 per pound, also increased from $4.00 per pound in 2024. Both are reported to a rounding standard of two significant digits for tonnes and metal content, with grades reported to two decimal places.

Attributable proven and probable copper mineral reserves remained at 18 million tonnes of copper⁶ at 0.46% in 2025 on an attributable basis compared to 18 million tonnes of copper⁷ at 0.45% in 2024. Barrick's attributable measured and indicated copper resources for 2025 stand at 24 million tonnes of copper⁶ at 0.39%, with a further 4.2 million tonnes⁶ at 0.3% of inferred resources, reflecting increases due to changes in commodity pricing.

2026 Guidance

Following the operational review launched in Q3 2025, mine plan ownership was transitioned back to site teams and responsible regional leaders. These teams developed deliverable, ground‑up plans informed by past performance and improved confidence levels. Our 2026 guidance is based on these plans.

Gold production guidance for 2026 is 2.90–3.25 million ounces.¹ This compares to actual 2025 gold production of 3.26 million ounces¹, or 3.03 million ounces when the divested assets Hemlo and Tongon are excluded. Gold cost guidance for 2026, including COS⁴ of $1,870–$2,070, TCC² of $1,330–$1,470 and AISC² of $1,760–$1,950, is based on a gold price assumption of $4,500 per ounce.⁸

Copper production guidance for 2026 is 190,000–220,000 tonnes¹, compared to actual production of 220,000 tonnes¹ in 2025, at copper COS⁵ of $3.05–$3.35 per pound, C1 cash costs² of $2.20–$2.45 per pound and AISC² of $3.45–$3.75 per pound. Copper cost guidance is based on a copper price assumption of $5.50 per pound.⁸

Update on Preparations of North America Gold IPO

As announced on December 1, 2025, the Board authorized Barrick's management team to explore the IPO of an entity that will hold Barrick's premier North American gold assets ("NewCo"). Following a rigorous financial and operational analysis by Barrick's management and its advisors, the Board has concluded that the IPO of NewCo represents the best path for maximizing value for Barrick's shareholders. The Board has authorized Barrick's management to begin preparations for the IPO of NewCo and expects the IPO to be completed by late 2026.

NewCo will hold Barrick's joint venture interests in Nevada Gold Mines and Pueblo Viejo, as well as Barrick's wholly owned Fourmile gold discovery in Nevada. Barrick intends to retain a significant controlling interest in NewCo following the IPO and continue to benefit financially through its majority ownership of NewCo. Barrick will continue to own and drive value in the Company's other world-class gold and copper assets. Barrick expects to provide further details of the IPO in the coming months.

The completion of the IPO will be subject to market conditions and other customary conditions, including any required regulatory approvals and final approval of the IPO by the Barrick Board of Directors.

Presentation and Webcast

The management team will host a live webcast and presentation today at 11:00 AM ET followed by a question-and-answer session with analysts. To join the webcast, please register here. Presentation materials will be available on Barrick's website prior to the event with a replay available soon after.

Endnote 2 – Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Free Cash Flow and Attributable Free Cash Flow

"Free cash flow" is a non-GAAP financial measure that deducts capital expenditures from net cash provided by operating activities. "Attributable free cash flow" starts with free cash flow and adds our attributable share of free cash flow from our equity investees and subtracts the free cash flow attributable to the non-controlling interests. Management believes this to be a useful indicator of our ability to operate without reliance on additional borrowing or usage of existing cash. Free cash flow and attributable free cash flow are intended to provide additional information only and does not have any standardized definition under IFRS, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. The measure is not necessarily indicative of operating profit or cash flow from operations as determined under IFRS. Other companies may calculate this measure differently. Further details on this non-GAAP financial performance measure are provided in the MD&A accompanying Barrick's financial statements filed from time to time on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca and on EDGAR at www.sec.gov. The following table reconciles this non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable IFRS measure.

Adjusted Net Earnings and Adjusted Net Earnings per Share

"Adjusted net earnings" and "adjusted net earnings per share" are non-GAAP financial performance measures. Adjusted net earnings excludes the following from net earnings: impairment charges (reversals) related to intangibles, goodwill, property, plant and equipment, and investments; acquisition/disposition gains/losses; foreign currency translation gains/losses; significant tax adjustments; other items that are not indicative of the underlying operating performance of our core mining business; and tax effect and non-controlling interest of the above items. Management uses this measure internally to evaluate our underlying operating performance for the reporting periods presented and to assist with the planning and forecasting of future operating results. Management believes that adjusted net earnings is a useful measure of our performance because impairment charges, acquisition/disposition gains/losses and significant tax adjustments do not reflect the underlying operating performance of our core mining business and are not necessarily indicative of future operating results. Furthermore, foreign currency translation gains/losses are not necessarily reflective of the underlying operating results for the reporting periods presented. The tax effect and non-controlling interest of the adjusting items are also excluded to reconcile the amounts to Barrick's shares on a post-tax basis, consistent with net earnings. Adjusted net earnings and adjusted net earnings per share are intended to provide additional information only and do not have standardized definitions under IFRS and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. The measures are not necessarily indicative of operating profit or cash flow from operations as determined under IFRS. Other companies may calculate these measures differently. The following table reconciles these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable IFRS measure. Further details on these non-GAAP financial performance measures are provided in the MD&A accompanying Barrick's financial statements filed from time to time on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca and on EDGAR at www.sec.gov.

1. There were no significant impairment charges or reversals in 2025. Net impairment reversals for 2024 mainly relate to long-lived asset impairment reversals at Lumwana and Veladero, partially offset by a goodwill impairment at Loulo-Gounkoto.
2. Acquisition/disposition gains for 2025 relate to gain on sale of our 50% interest in the Donlin Gold project in Q2 2025, and sale of our Hemlo gold mine, our interest in the Tongon gold mine and the Alturas project, all occurring in Q4 2025. Q4 2025 was further impacted by the accounting impact of regaining control of the Loulo-Gounkoto complex on December 16, 2025, which largely offset the losses recognized earlier in 2025 relating to the deconsolidation and recognition of an investment at fair value following the change of control after it was placed under a temporary provisional administration on June 16, 2025. The acquisition/disposition gains in Q3 2025 mainly related to the revaluation of our 80% equity investment in Loulo-Gounkoto, as it was deconsolidated and an investment at fair value was recognized in Q2 2025, as described above.
3. Significant tax adjustments in Q4 2025 include the resolution of uncertain tax positions, the impact of prior year adjustments and the recognition of deferred tax assets. Significant tax adjustments in 2025 primarily relate to the foreign currency remeasurement of tax balances, the resolution of uncertain tax positions and the recognition of deferred tax assets. For Q3 2025, significant tax adjustments include the foreign currency remeasurement of deferred tax balances and the recognition of deferred tax assets. Significant tax adjustments for 2024 primarily relate to the resolution of uncertain tax positions; the impact of prior year adjustments; the impact of nondeductible foreign exchange losses; and the recognition and derecognition of deferred tax assets.
4. Other expense adjustments for Q4 2025 and 2025 mainly relate to the settlement payment to the Government of Mali in November 2025 and the fair value increment on inventory resulting from the purchase price allocation when we regained control of Loulo-Gounkoto. 2025 was further impacted by reduced operations costs at Loulo-Gounkoto. Other expense adjustments for 2024 mainly relate to a payment to the Government of Mali to advance negotiations, a customs and royalty settlement at Tongon, interest and penalties recognized following the settlement of the Zaldívar Tax Assessments in Chile, a provision made relating to a legacy mine site operated by Homestake Mining Company that was closed prior to the 2001 acquisition by Barrick, and an accrual relating to the road construction in Tanzania per our community investment obligations under the Twiga partnership.
5. Non-controlling interest for 2025 primarily relates to other expense adjustments and tax effect for 2025 primarily relates to acquisition/disposition gains.
6. Calculated using weighted average number of shares outstanding under the basic method of earnings per share.

Capital Expenditures

These amounts are presented on the same basis as our guidance. Minesite sustaining capital expenditures and project capital expenditures are non-GAAP financial measures. Capital expenditures are classified into minesite sustaining capital expenditures or project capital expenditures depending on the nature of the expenditure. Minesite sustaining capital expenditures is the capital spending required to support current production levels. Project capital expenditures represent the capital spending at new projects and major, discrete projects at existing operations intended to increase net present value through higher production or longer mine life. Management believes this to be a useful indicator of the purpose of capital expenditures and this distinction is an input into the calculation of all-in sustaining costs per ounce/pound. Classifying capital expenditures is intended to provide additional information only and does not have any standardized definition under IFRS, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. Other companies may calculate these measures differently. Further details on these non-GAAP financial performance measures are provided in the MD&A accompanying Barrick's financial statements filed from time to time on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca and on EDGAR at www.sec.gov. The following table reconciles these non-GAAP financial performance measures to the most directly comparable IFRS measure.

Total cash costs per ounce and All-in sustaining costs per ounce

"Total cash costs" per ounce (TCC/oz) and "All-in sustaining costs" per ounce (AISC/oz) are non-GAAP financial performance measures which are calculated based on the definition published by the World Gold Council (a market development organization for the gold industry comprised of and funded by gold mining companies from around the world, including Barrick, the "WGC"). The WGC is not a regulatory organization. Management uses these measures to monitor the performance of our gold mining operations and their ability to generate positive cash flow, both on an individual site basis and an overall company basis. TCC/oz start with our cost of sales related to gold production and removes depreciation, the non-controlling interest of cost of sales and costs allocated to by-products. AISC/oz start with TCC/oz and includes sustaining capital expenditures, sustaining leases, general and administrative costs, minesite exploration and evaluation costs related to the current mine plan and reclamation cost accretion and amortization. Barrick believes that the use of TCC/oz and AISC/oz will assist analysts, investors and other stakeholders of Barrick in understanding the costs associated with producing gold, understanding the economics of gold mining, assessing our operating performance and also our ability to generate free cash flow from the gold operations portion of our business. Due to the capital-intensive nature of the industry and the long useful lives over which these items are depreciated, there can be a significant timing difference between net earnings calculated in accordance with IFRS and the amount of free cash flow that is generated by a mine and therefore Barrick believes these measures are useful non-GAAP operating metrics and supplement our IFRS disclosures. These measures are not representative of all of Barrick's cash expenditures as they do not include income tax payments, interest costs or dividend payments. These measures do not include depreciation or amortization. TCC/oz and AISC/oz are intended to provide additional information only and do not have standardized definitions under IFRS and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. These measures are not equivalent to net income or cash flow from operations as determined under IFRS. Although the WGC has published a standardized definition, other companies may calculate these measures differently. Further details on these non-GAAP financial performance measures are provided in the MD&A accompanying Barrick's financial statements filed from time to time on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca and on EDGAR at www.sec.gov. The following table reconciles these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable IFRS measure.

C1 cash costs per pound and All-in sustaining costs per pound

"C1 cash costs" per pound (C1 cash costs/lb) and "All-in sustaining costs" per pound (AISC/lb) are non-GAAP financial performance measures related to our copper mine operations. We believe that C1 cash costs/lb enables investors to better understand the performance of our copper operations in comparison to other copper producers who present results on a similar basis. C1 cash costs/lb excludes royalties, production taxes and non-routine charges as they are not direct production costs. AISC/lb is similar to the gold AISC metric and management uses this to better evaluate the costs of copper production. We believe this measure enables investors to better understand the operating performance of our copper mines as this measure reflects all of the sustaining expenditures incurred in order to produce copper. AISC/lb includes C1 cash costs, sustaining capital expenditures, sustaining leases, general and administrative costs, minesite exploration and evaluation costs, royalties, production taxes, reclamation cost accretion and amortization and writedowns taken on inventory to net realizable value. Further details on these non-GAAP financial performance measures are provided in the MD&A accompanying Barrick's financial statements filed from time to time on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca and on EDGAR at www.sec.gov. The following table reconciles these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable IFRS measure.

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Attributable EBITDA, Attributable EBITDA Margin and Net Leverage

EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure, which excludes the following from net earnings: income tax expense; finance costs; finance income; and depreciation. Management believes that EBITDA is a valuable indicator of our ability to generate liquidity by producing operating cash flow to fund working capital needs, service debt obligations, and fund capital expenditures. Management uses EBITDA for this purpose. Adjusted EBITDA removes the effect of impairment charges; acquisition/disposition gains/losses; foreign currency translation gains/losses; and other expense adjustments. We also remove the impact of the income tax expense, finance costs, finance income and depreciation incurred in our equity method accounted investments. Attributable EBITDA further removes the non-controlling interest portion. Barrick believes these items provide a greater level of consistency with the adjusting items included in our adjusted net earnings reconciliation, with the exception that these amounts are adjusted to remove any impact on finance costs/income, income tax expense and/or depreciation as they do not affect EBITDA. Barrick believes this additional information will assist analysts, investors and other stakeholders of Barrick in better understanding our ability to generate liquidity from our attributable business, including equity method investments, by excluding these amounts from the calculation as they are not indicative of the performance of our core mining business and do not necessarily reflect the underlying operating results for the periods presented. Additionally, it is aligned with how we present our forward-looking guidance on gold ounces and copper pounds produced. Attributable EBITDA margin is calculated as attributable EBITDA divided by revenues - as adjusted. We believe this ratio will assist analysts, investors and other stakeholders of Barrick to better understand the relationship between revenues and EBITDA or operating profit. Net leverage is calculated as debt, net of cash divided by the sum of adjusted EBITDA of the last four consecutive quarters. We believe this ratio will assist analysts, investors and other stakeholders of Barrick in monitoring our leverage and evaluating our balance sheet. EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, attributable EBITDA, EBITDA margin and net leverage are intended to provide additional information to investors and analysts and do not have any standardized definition under IFRS, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA and attributable EBITDA exclude the impact of cash costs of financing activities and taxes, and the effects of changes in operating working capital balances, and therefore are not necessarily indicative of operating profit or cash flow from operations as determined under IFRS. Other companies may calculate EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, attributable EBITDA, EBITDA margin and net leverage differently. Further details on these non-GAAP financial performance measures are provided in the MD&A accompanying Barrick's financial statements filed from time to time on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca and on EDGAR at www.sec.gov.

1. Finance costs exclude accretion.
2. There were no significant impairment charges or reversals in 2025. Net impairment reversals for 2024 mainly relate to long-lived asset impairment reversals at Lumwana and Veladero, partially offset by a goodwill impairment at Loulo-Gounkoto.
3. Acquisition/disposition gains for 2025 relate to gain on sale of our 50% interest in the Donlin Gold project in Q2 2025, and sale of our Hemlo gold mine, our interest in the Tongon gold mine and the Alturas project, all occurring in Q4 2025. Q4 2025 was further impacted by the accounting impact of regaining control of the Loulo-Gounkoto complex on December 16, 2025, which largely offset the losses recognized earlier in 2025 relating to the deconsolidation and recognition of an investment at fair value following the change of control after it was placed under a temporary provisional administration on June 16, 2025. The acquisition/disposition gains in Q3 2025 mainly related to the revaluation of our 80% equity investment in Loulo-Gounkoto, as it was deconsolidated and an investment at fair value was recognized in Q2 2025, as described above.
4. Other expense adjustments for Q4 2025 and 2025 mainly relate to the settlement payment to the Government of Mali in November 2025 and the fair value increment on inventory resulting from the purchase price allocation when we regained control of Loulo-Gounkoto. 2025 was further impacted by reduced operations costs at Loulo-Gounkoto. Other expense adjustments for 2024 mainly relate to a payment to the Government of Mali to advance negotiations, a customs and royalty settlement at Tongon, interest and penalties recognized following the settlement of the Zaldívar Tax Assessments in Chile, a provision made relating to a legacy mine site operated by Homestake Mining Company that was closed prior to the 2001 acquisition by Barrick, and an accrual relating to the road construction in Tanzania per our community investment obligations under the Twiga partnership.
5. Refer to Reconciliation of Sales to Realized Price per pound/ounce on page 69 of Barrick's Q4 and Year End 2025 MD&A.
6. Represents attributable EBITDA divided by revenues - as adjusted.
7. Represents debt, net of cash divided by adjusted EBITDA of the last four consecutive quarters.
   
   
   
   

Realized Price

"Realized price" is a non-GAAP financial performance measure which excludes from sales: treatment and refining charges; and cumulative catch-up adjustment to revenue relating to our streaming arrangements. We believe this provides investors and analysts with a more accurate measure with which to compare to market gold and copper prices and to assess our gold and copper sales performance. For those reasons, management believes that this measure provides a more accurate reflection of our Company's past performance and is a better indicator of its expected performance in future periods. The realized price measure is intended to provide additional information, and does not have any standardized definition under IFRS and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. The measure is not necessarily indicative of sales as determined under IFRS. Other companies may calculate this measure differently. Further details on these non-GAAP financial performance measures are provided in the MD&A accompanying Barrick's financial statements filed from time to time on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca and on EDGAR at www.sec.gov. The following table reconciles realized prices to the most directly comparable IFRS measure.

Endnote 3

Estimated in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 - Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects as required by Canadian securities regulatory authorities. Estimates are as of December 31, 2025, unless otherwise noted. As of December 31, 2024, Fourmile indicated resources of 3.6 million tonnes grading 11.76g/t representing 1.4 million ounces of gold and inferred resources of 14 million tonnes grading 14.1 g/t representing 6.4 million ounces of gold. As of December 31, 2025, Fourmile indicated resources of 4.6 million tonnes grading 17.59 g/t representing 2.6 million ounces of gold and inferred resources of 25 million tonnes grading 16.9 g/t representing 13 million ounces of gold. Complete mineral reserve and mineral resource data for all mines and projects referenced in this press release, including tonnes, grades, and ounces, can be found on pages 74-83 of the MD&A accompanying Barrick's Q4 and year-end 2025 financial statements filed on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca and on EDGAR at www.sec.gov.

Fourmile exploration potential tonnage and grade ranges are based upon a preliminary economic assessment which is preliminary in nature because it includes inferred mineral resources that are considered too speculative geologically to have the economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves, and there is no certainty that the preliminary economic assessment will be realized. The preliminary economic assessment for Fourmile is based upon $1,900/oz mineable stope optimizer. The assumptions outlined within the preliminary economic assessment have formed the basis for the ongoing study and are made by the Qualified Person. Fourmile is currently 100% owned by Barrick. Barrick anticipates Fourmile being contributed to the Nevada Gold Mines joint venture, at fair market value, if certain criteria are met.

Endnote 4

On an attributable basis. Gold COS/oz is calculated as cost of sales across our gold operations (excluding sites in closure or care and maintenance) divided by ounces sold (both on an attributable basis using Barrick's ownership share).

Endnote 5

On an attributable basis. Copper COS/lb is calculated as cost of sales across our copper operations divided by pounds sold (both on an attributable basis using Barrick's ownership share).

Forward-looking statements are necessarily based upon a number of estimates and assumptions including material estimates and assumptions related to the factors set forth below that, while considered reasonable by the Company as at the date of this press release in light of management's experience and perception of current conditions and expected developments, are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies. Known and unknown factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements and information. Such factors include, but are not limited to: fluctuations in the spot and forward price of gold, copper or certain other commodities (such as silver, diesel fuel, natural gas and electricity); risks associated with projects in the early stages of evaluation and for which additional engineering and other analysis is required; risks related to the possibility that future exploration results will not be consistent with the Company's expectations, that quantities or grades of reserves will be diminished, and that resources may not be converted to reserves; risks associated with the fact that certain of the initiatives described in this press release are still in the early stages and may not materialize; changes in mineral production performance, exploitation and exploration successes; risks that exploration data may be incomplete and considerable additional work may be required to complete further evaluation, including but not limited to drilling, engineering and socioeconomic studies and investment; the speculative nature of mineral exploration and development; lack of certainty with respect to foreign legal systems, corruption and other factors that are inconsistent with the rule of law; changes in national and local government legislation, taxation, controls or regulations and/or changes in the administration of laws, policies and practices, including the status of value added tax refunds received in Chile in connection with the Pascua-Lama Project;

the impact of global liquidity and credit availability on the timing of cash flows and the values of assets and liabilities based on projected future cash flows; the impact of inflation, including global inflationary pressures driven by ongoing global supply chain disruptions, global energy cost increases following the invasion of Ukraine by Russia and country-specific political and economic factors in Argentina; adverse changes in our credit ratings; fluctuations in the currency markets; changes in U.S. dollar interest rates; changes in U.S. trade, tariff and other controls on imports and exports, tax, immigration or other policies that may impact relations with foreign countries, result in retaliatory policies, lead to increased costs for raw materials and components, or impact Barrick's existing operations and material growth projects; risks arising from holding derivative instruments (such as credit risk, market liquidity risk and mark-to-market risk); risks related to the demands placed on the Company's management, the ability of management to implement its business strategy and enhanced political risk in certain jurisdictions; uncertainty whether some or all of Barrick's targeted investments and projects will meet the Company's capital allocation objectives and internal hurdle rate; whether benefits expected from recent transactions are realized; business opportunities that may be presented to, or pursued by, the Company; our ability to successfully integrate acquisitions or complete divestitures; risks related to competition in the mining industry; employee relations including loss of key employees; availability and increased costs associated with mining inputs and labor; risks associated with diseases, epidemics and pandemics; risks related to the failure of internal controls; and risks related to the impairment of the Company's goodwill and assets.

In addition, there are risks and hazards associated with the business of mineral exploration, development and mining, including environmental hazards, industrial accidents, unusual or unexpected formations, pressures, cave-ins, flooding and gold bullion, copper cathode or gold or copper concentrate losses (and the risk of inadequate insurance, or inability to obtain insurance, to cover these risks).

Many of these uncertainties and contingencies can affect our actual results and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in any forward-looking statements made by, or on behalf of, us. Readers are cautioned that forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance. All of the forward-looking statements made in this press release are qualified by these cautionary statements.
