Equinox Gold Corp. VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Feb. 18, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Equinox Gold Corp. (TSX: EQX, NYSE American: EQX) (“Equinox Gold” or the “Company”) is pleased to report its unaudited financial and operating results for the three months (“Q4”) and year (“Full Year”) ended December 31, 2025. These results are preliminary and could change based on final audited results. Equinox Gold’s 2025 audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying management’s discussion and analysis for Q4 and Full Year 2025 will be released later this month. All financial figures are in US dollars unless otherwise indicated. Darren Hall, CEO of Equinox Gold, commented: “2025 marked an important year of progress for Equinox Gold. The merger with Calibre created a tier one North American focused gold producer anchored by two new long-life Canadian mines. The year required a reset in expectations, particularly with ramp-up challenges at Greenstone. Many of those issues have been successfully addressed, along side the delivery of first gold and commercial production at Valentine ahead of schedule, portfolio optimization through asset divestments, and materially transforming the balance sheet with more than $1.1 billion in debt reduction since Q2 2025. “During the fourth quarter, key operational improvements began to translate into sustainable results, delivering record Q4 gold production of 247,024 ounces. At Greenstone, higher mining and milling rates drove a meaningful increase in production to more than 70,000 ounces of gold, up 29% from the prior quarter. At Valentine, commissioning progressed ahead of plan, with the declaration of commercial production in November and contribution of more than 23,000 ounces of gold in Q4. “As we enter 2026, our priorities are clear: operate safely and responsibly, generate free cash flow, reduce debt and continue unlocking the value of our portfolio. With gold prices strong and the expectation of producing 700,000 to 800,000 ounces of gold in 2026, we expect cash flow to eliminate the remaining debt in 2026. The strengthened balance sheet provides greater flexibility to self-fund 400,000 to 500,000 ounces of potential annual organic growth over the next five years from the Phase 2 expansion at Valentine, the Castle Mountain expansion, and optionality at Los Filos. “As free cash flow continues to grow, so do opportunities to return capital to shareholders. Earlier today, we announced the initiation of a quarterly cash dividend and, subject to TSX approval, the implementation of a share buy back program, reflecting our confidence in the Company’s financial position and long-term outlook, and our commitment to delivering meaningful, long-term value for our shareholders. Story Continues “Execution, growth, discipline and transparency will drive shareholder value. Equinox Gold is focused on delivering sustainable superior value for our shareholders and long-term benefits for our community partners as a leading gold producer.” FULL YEAR 2025 HIGHLIGHTS AND SUBSEQUENT EVENTS(1) Achieved a Full Year production record of 922,827 ounces; including 856,908 ounces meeting 2025 guidance of 785,000 to 915,000 ounces, plus 65,918 ounces from Valentine, Los Filos and Castle Mountain(2) Total cash costs of $1,494 per oz and all-in sustaining costs (“AISC”) of $1,925 per oz(2)(3) Cash costs and AISC came in at the low end of full year guidance; see 2025 Guidance & Actuals below Sold 778,561 ounces of gold attributable to Equinox Gold in 2025 at an average realized gold price of $3,465 per oz, generating revenue from continuing and discontinued operations of $2.71 billion Cash flow from operations before changes in non-cash working capital of $915.1 million Adjusted EBITDA of $1,339.6 million(3) Net income of $221.5 million or $0.35 per share (basic) Adjusted net income of $420.5 million or $0.67 per share (basic)(3) As of January 31, 2026, Equinox Gold had reduced debt by $1.1 billion since Q2 2025 Cash and equivalents (unrestricted) of $407.4 million(4) at December 31, 2025 Net debt of approximately $75 million at January 31, 2026 (3)(5) Inaugural quarterly cash dividend of $0.015 per share payable on March 26, 2026; targeting a regular quarterly dividend of $0.015 per share ($0.06 per share annually), subject to quarterly Board of Directors approval Implementation of a normal course issuer bid, subject to Toronto Stock Exchange approval, to purchase for cancellation up to 5% of the Company’s outstanding shares Made a significant new AI-supported gold discovery 8km northwest of the Valentine mill, and continued to encounter broad zones of high-grade gold mineralization along trend from existing mineral reserves (see February 2, 2026 news release) Q4 2025 HIGHLIGHTS(1) Produced a record 247,024 ounces of gold, including 1,336 ounces from Castle Mountain and 23,207 ounces from Valentine Total cash costs of $1,392 per oz and AISC of $1,907 per oz(3) Sold 242,392 ounces of gold at an average realized gold price of $4,060 per oz, generating revenue from continuing and discontinued operations of $987.8 million Cash flow from operations before changes in non-cash working capital of $396.0 million Adjusted EBITDA of $579.0 million(3) Net income of $197.5 million or $0.25 per share (basic) Adjusted net income of $272.9 million or $0.35 per share (basic)(3) 1.

Their measurement and presentation is consistently prepared and is intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. Numbers presented in the tables below may not sum due to rounding. Cash Costs and Cash Costs per oz Sold Cash costs is a common financial performance measure in the gold mining industry; however, it has no standard meaning under IFRS. The Company reports total cash costs on a per oz sold basis. The Company believes that, in addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with IFRS, certain investors use this information to evaluate the Company’s performance and ability to generate operating income and cash flow from mining operations. Cash costs are calculated as mine site operating costs and are net of silver by-product credits. Cash costs are divided by ounces sold to arrive at cash costs per oz sold. In calculating cash costs, the Company deducts silver by-product credits as it considers the cost to produce the gold is reduced as a result of the by-product sales incidental to the gold production process, thereby allowing management and other stakeholders to assess the net costs of gold production. The measure is not necessarily indicative of cash flow from operations under IFRS or operating costs presented under IFRS. AISC per oz Sold The Company uses AISC per oz of gold sold to measure performance. The methodology for calculating AISC was developed internally and is outlined below. Current IFRS measures used in the gold industry, such as operating expenses, do not capture all of the expenditures incurred to discover, develop and sustain gold production. The Company believes the AISC measure provides further transparency into costs associated with producing gold and will assist analysts, investors and other stakeholders of the Company in assessing its operating performance, its ability to generate free cash flow from current operations and its overall value. AISC includes cash costs (described above) and also includes sustaining capital expenditures, sustaining lease payments, reclamation cost accretion and amortization and exploration and evaluation costs. This measure seeks to reflect the full cost of gold production from current operations, therefore, expansionary capital and non-sustaining expenditures are excluded. The following table provides a reconciliation of cash costs per oz of gold sold and AISC per oz of gold sold to the most directly comparable IFRS measure on an aggregate basis: Three months ended Year ended $’s in millions December 31, 2025 September 30, 2025 December 31, 2024 December 31, 2025 December 31, 2024 Operating expenses $ 239.3 $ 266.0 $ 220.6 $ 834.6 $ 596.9 Silver by-product credits (3.1 ) (5.4 ) (0.7 ) (9.5 ) (1.7 ) Fair value adjustment on acquired inventories (27.8 ) (26.5 ) (4.9 ) (56.5 ) (20.6 ) Non-recurring charges recognized in operating expenses(1) — — — (36.8 ) — Pre-commercial production and development stage operating expenses(2) (20.9 ) (5.0 ) (37.8 ) (37.9 ) (88.5 ) Total cash costs - continuing operations $ 187.5 $ 229.0 $ 177.1 $ 693.9 $ 486.1 Total cash costs - discontinued operations(4) $ 130.9 $ 107.6 $ 112.3 $ 430.6 $ 391.3 Total cash costs - All Operations $ 318.4 $ 336.6 $ 289.4 $ 1,124.5 $ 877.4 Gold oz sold - continuing operations 168,558 170,193 136,384 519,671 374,246 Less: gold oz sold during pre-commercial production period (13,667 ) (4,527 ) (19,161 ) (26,128 ) (74,547 ) Adjusted gold oz sold - continuing operations 154,891 165,666 117,223 493,543 299,699 Gold oz sold - discontinued operations 73,834 69,119 81,294 258,890 249,332 Adjusted gold oz sold - All Operations 228,725 234,785 198,517 752,433 549,031 Cash costs per gold oz sold - continuing operations $ 1,211 $ 1,383 $ 1,511 $ 1,406 $ 1,622 Cash costs per gold oz sold - discontinued operations $ 1,773 $ 1,556 $ 1,381 $ 1,663 $ 1,569 Cash costs per gold oz sold - All Operations $ 1,392 $ 1,434 $ 1,458 $ 1,494 $ 1,598 Total cash costs - continuing operations $ 187.5 $ 229.0 $ 177.1 $ 693.9 $ 486.1 Sustaining capital 67.2 55.6 13.0 174.6 48.2 Sustaining lease payments 0.3 0.4 0.2 1.2 2.5 Reclamation expense 5.9 4.4 1.9 16.8 7.0 Sustaining exploration expense — — 0.2 — 0.9 Pre-commercial production and development stage sustaining expenditures(2) (1.7 ) (1.4 ) (1.3 ) (4.9 ) (1.9 ) Total AISC - continuing operations $ 259.2 $ 288.1 $ 191.1 $ 881.5 $ 542.6 Total AISC - discontinued operations(4) 177.0 142.1 136.9 566.5 484.0 Total AISC - All Operations $ 436.2 $ 430.3 $ 328.0 $ 1,448.1 $ 1,026.6 AISC per gold oz sold - continuing operations $ 1,673 $ 1,739 $ 1,630 $ 1,786 $ 1,811 AISC per gold oz sold - discontinued operations $ 2,397 $ 2,056 $ 1,684 $ 2,188 $ 1,941 AISC per gold oz sold - All Operations $ 1,907 $ 1,833 $ 1,652 $ 1,925 $ 1,870 1.
