BOISE, Idaho, Aug. 17, 2026 /CNW/ -- Perpetua Resources Corp. (Nasdaq: PPTA) (TSX: PPTA) ("Perpetua Resources" or "Perpetua" or the "Company") announced the filing of its unaudited condensed consolidated financial results for the period ended June 30, 2026. For details, please see the Company's filings available on EDGAR and SEDAR+. Perpetua Resources' vision is to provide the U.S. with a domestic source of the critical mineral antimony while developing one of the largest and highest-grade open pit gold mines in the Americas and restoring an abandoned brownfield site. The Company is currently advancing a comprehensive project financing plan along with detailed engineering, long-lead time procurement, early works and critical path construction activities and execution planning in anticipation of a final investment and construction decision in the second half of 2026. "Significant milestones were achieved at Perpetua in Q2 2026," said Jon Cherry, President and CEO of Perpetua Resources. "The unanimous approval by the U.S. EXIM board of our $2.9 billion senior secured loan has laid the foundation for Stibnite's future construction, and combined with our $574.2 million cash position at quarter-end, positions us well as we advance toward a final investment and construction decision in the second half of the year. We continue to work through definitive documentation and anticipate closing this facility later this year. Other key developments included the commencement of Burntlog Route upgrades, continuing work on the worker housing and administrative facilities and other site locations, ongoing deliveries of worker housing facility units to site and the continuation of exploration activities. The benefits of exploration remain abundantly clear as our short winter drill program delivered promising results and demonstrated that significant opportunity remains for resource conversion at Stibnite." Second Quarter 2026 and Recent Highlights Reported a net loss of $97.5 million for the second quarter of 2026 (six months ended June 30, 2026: $146.2 million), compared to a net loss of $6.0 million (six months: $14.2 million) in the prior year period, primarily driven by higher exploration and pre-development spending ahead of a final investment and construction decision; ended the quarter with $574.2 million in unrestricted cash and cash equivalents and $60.9 million in restricted cash equivalents. Zero lost time incidents or reportable environmental spills. On April 10, 2026, the Idaho Department of Environmental Quality issued its final modified Clean Water Act Section 401 Water Quality Certification for the Project. On May 21, 2026, the board of the Export-Import Bank of the United States ("EXIM") unanimously approved a $2.9 billion senior secured long-term loan under the Make More in America Initiative to support the development of the Company's 100%-owned Stibnite Gold Project. On May 29, 2026, the United States District Court of Idaho denied a motion for a preliminary injunction filed by the plaintiffs in a related lawsuit initiated in 2025 by special interest groups challenging, among other things, the USFS Record of Decision approving the Project. In the decision, the District Court found that the plaintiffs failed to show that the planned activities challenged by the plaintiffs would cause irreparable harm or would likely violate any applicable law as asserted by the plaintiffs in their legal claims. The plaintiffs subsequently filed an appeal with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit of the District Court's order denying the motion for a preliminary injunction, and they also requested an emergency stay of the District Court's order. The Ninth Circuit on June 17, 2026 denied the stay request. The appeal remains pending. On May 30, 2026, the Company commenced additional critical path construction activities for the 2026 field season, including initial work associated with the Burntlog Route, a key infrastructure project designed to support safe and efficient access to the Project site while minimizing impacts to nearby communities and sensitive environmental areas. Other critical path construction activities also commenced on May 30th, including new work relating to the worker housing and administrative facilities at the mine site. On July 7, 2026, an Idaho state district court upheld the air permit to construct for the Project that was the subject of a judicial appeal filed by certain petitioners that had contested the permit in state administrative proceedings. The state court rejected all claims by the petitioners challenging the air permit issued by Idaho Department of Environmental Quality (IDEQ) for the Project. In July 2026, the Company announced commissioning of a mobile modular processing plant in partnership with Idaho National Laboratory to conduct pilot-scale testing of the plant, which is designed to advance development of a secure domestic supply chain for antimony trisulfide. On August 6, 2026, the Company reported new high-grade gold and antimony discoveries and identification of a new gold-tungsten zone in the Company's ongoing exploration program. In H1 2026, Perpetua identified U.S. government-sponsored tungsten initiatives and submitted grant funding proposals to advance tungsten drilling, sampling, metallurgical analysis, and resource evaluation. There is no assurance the Company will secure funding or identify economically accessible tungsten, but Perpetua believes its broader claim package positions it to help the U.S. government secure a second critical mineral, alongside antimony, from the Stibnite district; any tungsten development would require separate environmental review and permitting outside the current Project's scope. During July and August 2026, the Company purchased put option contracts to protect the Company's exposure to fluctuations in metal prices. In total, the Company paid premiums of $28.9 million for the right, but not an obligation, to sell a total of up to 158,016 ounces of gold during 2031 at an established put strike price of $3,000 per ounce. The put structure of the contracts allows Perpetua to retain full exposure to gold prices above $3,000 per ounce while mitigating downside exposure. Published the Company's 2025 Sustainability Report, its thirteenth annual sustainability report. About Perpetua Resources and the Stibnite Gold ProjectPerpetua Resources Corp., through its wholly owned subsidiaries, is focused on the exploration, site restoration and redevelopment of gold-antimony-silver deposits in the Stibnite-Yellow Pine district of central Idaho. The Stibnite Gold Project is one of the highest-grade, open-pit gold deposits in the United States and holds the only identified domestic reserve of the critical mineral antimony, which is essential to the defense, energy and manufacturing sectors.

BOISE, Idaho, May 11, 2026 /CNW/ - Perpetua Resources Corp. (Nasdaq: PPTA) (TSX: PPTA) ("Perpetua Resources" or "Perpetua" or the "Company") announced today the filing of its unaudited condensed consolidated financial results for the period ended March 31, 2026. For details, please see the Company's filings available on EDGAR and SEDAR+. Perpetua Resources' vision is to provide the U.S. with a domestic source of the critical mineral antimony while developing one of the largest and highest-grade open pit gold mines in the Americas and restoring an abandoned brownfield site. The Company is currently advancing a comprehensive project financing plan along with detailed engineering, long-lead time procurement, early works construction activities and execution planning in anticipation of a final investment and construction decision in the second half of 2026. "After breaking ground late last year at our Stibnite project, we maintained our momentum in Q1 2026," said Jon Cherry, President and CEO of Perpetua Resources. "The first quarter saw considerable progress towards securing our comprehensive project financing plans with U.S EXIM and a final vote is expected in the coming weeks. Meanwhile, we significantly advanced detailed engineering, continued early works construction and began procurement for long-lead time items ahead of our Final Investment Decision expected in the second half of 2026." First Quarter 2026 and Recent Highlights The U.S. Export-Import Bank ("U.S. EXIM") Board posted the Congressional notice for an approximately $2.7 billion proposed senior secured loan for the Project. The notification period has since expired, and U.S. EXIM's board has advanced the loan to a final vote anticipated in the second quarter of 2026. The Company's loan has been placed on the agenda for the U.S. EXIM Board meeting on May 21, 2026, reflecting meaningful progress toward financing approval. The agenda is subject to change by the board of U.S. EXIM at any time, and there can be no assurance that the board will vote to approve the loan at the May 21 meeting, at a different meeting, or at all. If approved, the loan is expected to consist of approximately $2.2 billion for construction of the Project, financial assurance, and certain discretionary corporate and exploration costs, with the remainder comprising capitalized interest and fees. If approved by the U.S. EXIM Board in the amount indicated, the Company would have sufficient capital to fully finance the Project's estimated direct capital costs of $2,576 million — combining the U.S. EXIM loan with $669.5 million of cash on hand as of March 31, 2026 — as well as financial assurance and discretionary corporate and exploration costs, consistent with the capital expenditure estimate set forth in the December 31, 2025 Technical Report Summary ("TRS"). The Company maintained an exemplary safety and environmental record during the quarter, with zero lost time incidents and zero reportable environmental spills. In March 2026, the Company published an updated TRS incorporating revised capital and operating expense estimates that reflect continued advancement in engineering, contracting, and Project development through December 2025. The TRS continued to demonstrate compelling project economics for the Stibnite Gold Project across a wide range of gold and antimony price assumptions. In January 2026, the Company received the final remaining Stream Alteration Permit from the Idaho Department of Water Resources ("IDWR"), finalizing necessary state approvals for work in various streams and other water resources. Also in January 2026, the Company received the final Idaho Pollutant Discharge Elimination System ("IPDES") permit for industrial wastewater discharges. This permit is currently subject to an automatic stay under Idaho law until an administrative appeal process is completed. In April 2026, the Idaho Department of Environmental Quality ("IDEQ") issued a final modified Clean Water Act Section 401 Water Quality Certification for the Project, advancing a key state water quality approval through a further stage of regulatory review. A contested case proceeding challenging certain aspects of the Certification remains pending, and a new hearing date has not yet been scheduled. The Certification remains valid during the pendency of the contested case proceeding. The Company anticipates receipt of the second phase cyanidation permit from IDEQ in the second quarter of 2026, advancing regulatory approval of the Project's cyanidation facility. IDEQ released a draft of the second phase permit for public comment in February 2026. Perpetua is aware that the environmental plaintiffs in the 2025 NEPA challenge in the U.S. District Court in Idaho on May 8, 2026, filed a motion for a preliminary injunction seeking to delay certain construction activities on federal land planned for the Stibnite Gold Project. The motion excludes the early works activities that Perpetua has been advancing under a prior stipulation agreed to by the Company and the plaintiffs, and those activities will continue. The hearing on the motion is set for May 28th, and a ruling is expected shortly thereafter. The Company successfully transitioned its Engineering, Procurement, and Construction Management ("EPCM") responsibilities for the Project's processing plant and related scopes of work from Ausenco to Hatch, ensuring continuity and strengthening execution capacity as the Project advances toward construction.

BOISE, Idaho, Aug. 14, 2025 /PRNewswire/ - Perpetua Resources Corp. (Nasdaq: PPTA) (TSX: PPTA) ("Perpetua Resources" or "Perpetua" or the "Company") announced today that its unaudited condensed consolidated financial results for the period ended June 30, 2025 were filed. For details, please see the Company's filings available on EDGAR and SEDAR. Perpetua Resources' vision is to provide the U.S. with a domestic source of the critical mineral antimony, develop one of the largest and highest-grade open pit gold mines in the country and restore an abandoned brownfield site. Perpetua Resources is focused on finalizing remaining permits for the Stibnite Gold Project ("Project") to support early works construction expected to start in the fall of 2025, advancing detailed engineering, long lead procurement and execution planning to be full sanction construction ready in the spring of 2026 and finalizing project financing. Second Quarter 2025 and Recent Highlights: Zero lost time incidents or reportable environmental spills. U.S. Army Corps of Engineers ("USACE" or the "Army Corps") issued the Section 404 permit for the Project. Submitted formal application to U.S. EXIM for potential Project debt financing of up to $2.0 billion. Closed $425 million in gross proceeds from equity financing and subsequently additional gross proceeds of $49 million upon full exercise of an underwriter option, for total aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $474 million. Announced plan for comprehensive project financing plan for the Project. Published 2024 Sustainability Report, the Company's twelfth annual sustainability report. The Idaho Board of Environmental Quality issued a final order rejecting challenges by certain petitioners to the air permit to construct issued by the Idaho Department of Environmental Quality for the Project and upholding the permit in all respects. "Perpetua Resources received its final federal permit for the Stibnite Gold Project in the second quarter of 2025, after eight years of rigorous interagency coordination and review," said Jon Cherry, President and CEO of Perpetua Resources. "Following the successful equity offering in June 2025, and with final state permits and authorizations needed to begin construction expected in the fall of 2025, Perpetua is focused on finalizing a potential royalty or stream arrangement with financial assurance guarantees which is expected to be complete this summer, while advancing the US EXIM debt financing." About Perpetua Resources and the Stibnite Gold Project Perpetua Resources Corp., through its wholly owned subsidiaries, is focused on the exploration, site restoration and redevelopment of gold-antimony-silver deposits in the Stibnite-Yellow Pine district of central Idaho that are encompassed by the Stibnite Gold Project. The Stibnite Gold Project is one of the highest-grade, open pit gold deposits in the United States and is designed to apply a modern, responsible mining approach to restore an abandoned mine site and produce both gold and the only mined source of antimony in the United States. Antimony trisulfide from Stibnite is the only known domestic reserves of antimony that can meet U.S. defense needs for many small arms, munitions, and missile types. Forward-Looking Information Investors should be aware that the U.S. EXIM Letter of Interest ("LOI") is non-binding and conditional, and does not represent a financing commitment. A funding commitment, if any, is conditional upon successfully completing the due diligence and underwriting process, which may not be completed on the expected timeline, or at all. If the Company's application is approved, there can be no assurance that the U.S. EXIM financing will be for the full amount indicated in the LOI or the increased amount requested in the application, or that the approved U.S. EXIM financing will be sufficient for the Company to commence construction of the Project. Further, release of funding under any such commitment would be subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions and covenants by the Company. Investors should be aware that the Company has not entered into any definitive agreement with respect to a royalty, streaming or guarantee and may not be able to enter into such agreement on the anticipated terms and timeline, or at all. In addition, the outcomes from such agreement, when entered into, may not be sufficient to satisfy the aggregate obligations of the Company to provide construction phase financial assurance under applicable federal and state law prior to commencing construction. Securing the financial assurance does not guarantee the Company will receive the U.S. Forest Service ("USFS") notice to proceed under the approved plan of operation and consummating the royalty financing may not satisfy the financial assurance conditions of various federal and state permits required to commence construction. Investors should be aware that state regulators are not bound by permitting schedules and anticipated timelines may be delayed materially or not be satisfied. Statements contained in this news release that are not historical facts are "forward-looking information" or "forward-looking statements" (collectively, "Forward-Looking Information") within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities legislation and the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
