Dundee Corporation Delivers Strong 2025 Results; Advances Mining Strategy Through Monetizations and Capital Repositioning
TORONTO, March 25, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — “This year, we delivered solid net earnings driven by significant investment gains across our mining portfolio, alongside sizeable monetization transactions that strengthened Dundee’s year-end cash position and financial flexibility,” said Jonathan Goodman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Dundee Corporation. “With a strong balance sheet and ample liquidity, we are in a strong position to redeploy capital toward returns-focused growth and deliver sustained shareholder value.”
“Our recently announced earn-in and joint-venture agreement with Westhaven Gold is a clear example of our disciplined approach to deploying capital to build a scalable, long-term mining platform,” Mr. Goodman continued. “The agreement provides Dundee with a path to earn a meaningful interest in Westhaven’s Shovelnose Gold Project and the broader Spences Bridge Gold Belt through staged project expenditures. This transaction reflects our conviction in high-quality assets in stable jurisdictions and our ability to identify opportunities early, apply technical expertise, and support projects with long-term potential.”
“The acquisition of Maritime Resources by New Found Gold in 2025 highlights our ability to identify exceptional assets ahead of the broader market and positions us to reinvest our capital into durable, project-level growth opportunities and capture more of the value that we help to unlock,” Mr. Goodman added.
Mr. Goodman concluded: “We ended the year with a strong cash position, no debt at the parent level, and a new strategic pathway to cash flow generation, strengthening our future financial position. We are proud of the disciplined execution that has positioned us for this next phase of growth and remain focused on advancing opportunities that can generate future cash flow for Dundee and building lasting value for our shareholders. None of this progress would be possible without the dedication, focus and sharp execution of our entire team – they continue to be the driving force behind everything we achieve.”
FOURTH QUARTER AND FULL-YEAR 2025 RESULTS
- On November 13, 2025, New Found Gold Corp. (“NFG”) acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of Maritime Resources Corp. (“Maritime”), and Maritime shareholders received 0.75 of a share of NFG for each existing Maritime share held. Upon completion of the acquisition transaction, the Corporation received 36.7 million NFG shares, representing an 11% interest in NFG. As a result, the Corporation ceased applying the equity method and reclassified its interest as a portfolio investment measured at fair value through profit and loss (“FVTPL”), recognizing an $82.9 million gain upon the remeasurement.
- On December 16, 2025, the Corporation sold 24.5 million units of NFG (the “NFG Units”) for gross proceeds of $97.9 million. Each NFG Unit consisted of one common share of NFG owned by the Corporation and one-half of a common share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a “NFG Warrant”). Each NFG Warrant entitles the holder thereof to acquire one additional common share of NFG owned by the Corporation at an exercise price of $5.00 per share for a term of 12 months from the date of issue. In addition, the Corporation recognized a liability associated with the sale of the NFG Warrants, measured at $6.4 million as at December 31, 2025.
- During the fourth quarter of 2025, the Corporation recognized royalty revenue of $1.3 million from the Borborema Gold Project. Subsequent to year-end 2025, the Corporation sold the net smelter royalty for total consideration of $65.8 million and will recognize a $47.5 million gain in the first quarter of 2026.
- On December 12, 2025, the Corporation closed the sale of its 20% interest in Android Industries, LLC (“Android”) and received cash proceeds of US$19.8 million (Cdn$27.3 million), with an incremental US$10.3 million (Cdn$14.1 million) payable contingent upon the release of all escrows. The Corporation recognized a $11.4 million gain on the transaction. Subsequent to year-end 2025, the Corporation received US$3.4 million in cash released from escrow.
- In December 2025, the Corporation recognized a gain of $102.3 million following a change in the accounting treatment for its investment in Magna Mining Inc. (“Magna”) from the equity method to a portfolio investment measured at FVTPL. This change resulted from the Corporation’s determination that it no longer had significant influence over Magna, following the reduction in the Corporation’s ownership interest in Magna to 19% and the cessation of certain rights under a previously existing investor rights agreement.
- In October 2025, the Corporation resolved a long-standing matter, announcing it was successful in its appeals to the Tax Court of Canada, which disputed reassessments issued by the Canada Revenue Agency (“CRA”) for the 2014 tax year for both the Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiary at the time, Dundee Resources Limited. Dundee’s Consolidated Financial Statements for December 31, 2025, reports an amount of $11.5 million deposited with the CRA. Subsequent to year-end, $13.7 million was refunded to the Corporation, inclusive of interest.
- In December 2025, the Corporation signed a definitive earn-in and joint-venture agreement with Westhaven Gold Corp., providing Dundee the right to earn up to a 60% interest in the Shovelnose and broader Spences Bridge Gold Belt projects in southern British Columbia through staged project expenditures of up to $85 million, establishing a new, long-term growth platform aligned with Dundee’s core mining strategy. In February 2026, the Corporation announced the closing of this strategic earn-in agreement.
- Reported net income from all portfolio investments for the fourth quarter of 2025 of $2.1 million (2024 – loss of $2.1 million). The key drivers of the current quarter’s positive performance include fair value gains of $38.8 million and $6.1 million from the investments in NFG and Magna after the reclassification to portfolio investments measured at FVTPL in December 2025. During the same quarter, the Corporation recognized a $15.2 million fair value loss from its investment in Saturn Metals Limited as well as a $20.7 million fair value loss from its investment in a clinical-stage private neuroscience company, TauRx Pharmaceuticals Ltd. For 2025, the Corporation reported net income from portfolio investments of $131.6 million (2024 – $65.9 million). The key drivers of the current year’s performance include $38.8 million, $27.7 million and $21.3 million fair value gains on investments in NFG, Ausgold Limited and Saturn Metals Limited, respectively. In addition, the Corporation sold its remaining stake in G Mining Ventures Corp. for $45.3 million cash proceeds and recognized a $14.2 million gain in the current year.
