Alamos Gold Reports Fourth Quarter and Year-End 2025 Results

Record free cash flow generation supports growing shareholder returns

with 60% increase in dividend

Toronto, Ontario ( February 18, 202 6) - Alamos Gold Inc. (TSX:AGI; NYSE:AGI) (“Alamos” or the “Company”)

today reported its financial results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2025.

“Our full year production was lower than planned and costs higher due to a challenging year at our Canadian

operations. Despite these challenges, we established a number of new financial records including record free cash

flow of $352 million while investing in our high-return growth initiatives. This included advancing the Phase 3+ Shaft

Expansion, delivering a 32% increase in Mineral Reserves, and incorporating that growth into a larger expansion of

the Island Gold District,” said John A. McCluskey, President and Chief Executive Officer.

“Collectively, we expect these growth projects to drive a significant improvement into 2026, and sustained low -cost

growth over the next five years to approximately one million ounces annually by 2030. All of this growth is in

Canada, and we expect to fund it all internally while generating increasing free cash flow. Reflecting this strong

outlook and growing free cash flow, we are pleased to announce a 60% increase in our dividend,” Mr. McCluskey

added.

Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2025 Highlights

Operational and Financial Highlights

• Produced 545,400 ounces of gold in 2025, below revised annual guidance and a 4% decrease from 2024.

Lower mining and processing rates at the Canadian operations as a result of severe winter weather, as well as

other operational challenges, impacted production late in the year. Fourth quarter production of 141,500 ounces

was consistent with the third quarter but below quarterly guidance

• The Island Gold District produced 250,400 ounces of gold in 2025 and generated record annual mine-site free

cash flow1 of $205.0 million after funding all Phase 3+ Shaft Expansion capital and exploration initiatives

• Young-Davidson produced 153,400 ounces of gold in 2025 and generated record mine-site free cash flow of

$249.9 million, including a record $89.7 million in the fourth quarter

• The Mulatos District produced 141,600 ounces of gold in 2025 and generated strong mine-site free cash flow of

$221.5 million, including a record $92.3 million in the fourth quarter

• Cost of sales were $809.5 million or $1,524 per ounce in 2025, and $219.5 million, or $1,544 per ounce in the

fourth quarter

• Total cash costs1 of $1,077 per ounce and all-in sustaining costs ("AISC"1) of $1,524 per ounce for the full year

were above revised annual guidance. Total cash costs of $1,111 per ounce and AISC of $1,592 per ounce for

the fourth quarter were higher than the third quarter and quarterly guidance , driven by lower than planned

production from the Island Gold District and Young-Davidson

• Full year sales totaled 531,230 ounces of gold at an average realized price of $3,372 per ounce, generating

record annual revenues of approximately $1.8 billion, including silver sales, representing a 34% increase from

2024. This included fourth quarter sales of 142,147 ounces of gold at an average realized price of $3,998 per

ounce, generating record quarterly revenues of $575.3 million. This represented a 53% increase from the fourth

quarter of 2024 and marked the third consecutive quarter of record revenues

changes in working capital and taxes paid 1, or $2.20 per share 1), a 20% increase from 2024. Fourth quarter

cash flow from operating activities was $250.9 million (including $284.7 million before changes in working

capital and taxes paid, or $0.68 per share)

• Generated record annual free cash flow 1 of $351.7 million, including a record $156.9 million in the fourth

quarter, while continuing to reinvest in high-return growth projects including the Phase 3+ Shaft Expansion, IGD

Expansion to 20,000 tonnes per day ("tpd"), Lynn Lake, PDA, and a record exploration program

• Reported net earnings were $885.8 million in 2025, or $2.11 per share. Adjusted net earnings 1 were $587.1

million in 2025, or $1.40 per share1. Adjusted earnings include after-tax adjustments for an impairment reversal

and gain on sale of assets of $419.6 million, loss on commodity hedge derivatives of $ 152.1 million, as well as

adjustments for net unrealized foreign exchange gain recorded within deferred taxes and foreign exchange

totaling $27.4 million, and other adjustments of $3.8 million

• Reported net earnings were $434.9 million for the fourth quarter, or $1.03 per share. Adjusted net earnings for

the fourth quarter were $227.6 million, or $0.54 per share. Adjusted net earnings include after-tax adjustments

for a gain on sale of assets of $226.7 million, loss on commodity hedge derivatives of $ 34.9 million, as well as

adjustments for unrealized foreign exchange gain recorded within deferred taxes and foreign exchange totaling

$6.0 million, and other adjustments of $9.5 million

• Cash and cash equivalents were $623.1 million at December 31, 2025, up from $463.1 million at the end of the

third quarter, and $327.2 million at the end of 2024. This reflects record free cash flow generation, while

continuing to reinvest in high -return growth, supporting increased shareholder returns, debt reduction, and the

repurchase of hedges. The Company remains well -positioned to internally fund all of its growth initiatives with

strong ongoing free cash flow, net cash of $423.1 million, and approximately $1.2 billion of total liquidity

• Returned $80.9 million to shareholders in 2025 , nearly double the $41.0 million returned in 2024 . This included

the repurchase of 1.3 million shares at a cost of $38.8 million, and dividend payments totall ing $42.1 million. In

addition, the Company announced a 60% increase in the quarterly dividend to $0.04 per share , starting in the

first quarter of 2026

• Repaid $50 million of debt during the fourth quarter, leaving $200 million drawn on the credit facility at the end

of 2025

• Eliminated half of the 2026 legacy gold hedges from Argonaut Gold Inc. ("Argonaut") in the fourth quarter with

the repurchase and elimination of all forward sale contracts that were scheduled to mature in the first half of

2026. These contracts totaled 50,000 ounces at an average price of $1,821 per ounce. The cost to eliminate the

hedges was $113.5 million, at an effective price of approximately $4, 091 per ounce, providing further upside to

current gold prices. This was funded by $6 3.5 million in cash and a gold sale prepayment for $50.0 million in

exchange for the delivery of 12,255 ounces in the first half of 2026 at a prepay price of $4,166 per ounce

Mineral Reserves and Resources, Growth Projects and Other Highlights

• Announced the Island Gold District Expansion Study ("IGD Expansion Study") on February 3, 2026, outlining a

long-life operation that is expected to become one of the largest, lowest -cost, and most profitable gold mines in

Canada. Compared to the Base Case Life of Mine Plan (the "Base Case LOM Plan") released in June 2025, the

IGD Expansion incorporates a 30% increase in Mineral Reserves and an expansion of the Magino mill to

20,000 tpd, driving increased annual production of 534,000 ounces over the initial 10 years (starting in 2028) at

average mine -site AISC of $1,025 per ounce. At a gold price of $4,500 per ounce and USD/CAD foreign

exchange rate of $0.74:1, the Island Gold District has an estimated after -tax net present value ("NPV") (5%) of

$12.2 billion, making it one of the most valuable gold mines in Canada

• Issued three-year guidance on February 4, 2026, with production expected to increase 12% in 2026 to between

570,000 and 650,000 ounces, and 46% by 2028 to between 755,000 and 835,000 ounces. AISC are expected

to decrease 18% by 2028 relative to 2025, driven by low -cost growth from the Island Gold District following the

completion of the Phase 3+ Shaft Expansion late in 2026 and the IGD Expansion in 2028. Further growth in

production and reduction in costs is expected after the completion of the Lynn Lake project in 2029

• Reported year-end 2025 Mineral Reserves of 15.9 million ounces (265 million tonnes ("mt")), a 32% increase

from the end of 2024, with grades also increasing 5% to 1.87 grams per tonne (“g/t Au”). The growth was driven

by the successful conversion of a large portion of Mineral Resources to Reserves at the Island Gold District.

Measured and Indicated Mineral Resources also increased 6% to 5.5 million ounces (119 mt grading 1.44 g/t

Au) driven by additions at Young -Davidson, Lynn Lake and Mulatos. Inferred Mineral Resources decreased

63% to 2.0 million ounces (35 mt grading 1.82 g/t Au) reflecting the successful conversion of Mineral Resources

at the Island Gold District to Reserves

• Advanced the Phase 3+ Shaft Expansion at the Island Gold District. This included shaft sink progressing to a

depth of 1,350 metres ("m"), or 98% of the ultimate depth, and advancing the paste plant construction. The

Phase 3+ Shaft Expansion completion is expected in the fourth quarter of 2026

• Announced an updated development plan for the Lynn Lake project incorporating the BT and Linkwood

deposits, and several scope changes including a 13% increase in mill capacity to 9,000 tpd, driving production

higher and stronger economics. Lynn Lake is expected to average 186,000 ounces over its initial 10 -years at

first quartile mine-site AISC of $829 per ounce. Construction activities are expected to ramp up in the spring of

2026, with initial production expected in the first half of 2029

• Received approval of an amendment to the existing environmental impact assessment (Manifestación de

Impacto Ambiental) by Mexico’s Secretariat of Environment and Natural Resources in January 2025, allowing

for the start of construction on the PDA project within the Mulatos District . PDA remains on budget and on

schedule for initial production by mid-2027

• Closed the sale of the Company's Turkish development projects, which consist of Kirazlı, Ağı Dağı and

Çamyurt, to Tümad Madencilik Sanayi ve Ticaret A.Ş (“Tümad”) for total cash consideration of $470 million in

October 2025. Upon closing, Alamos received the first payment of $160 million. The remaining cash payments,

totaling $310 million , are expected to be received on the first and second anniversaries of the closing of the

transaction

• Closed the sale of the option to earn 100% interest in the non -core Quartz Mountain Gold Project (“Quartz

Mountain”), located in Oregon, to Q -Gold Resources Ltd. (TSXV:QGR) (“Q -Gold”) in October 2025. Quartz

Mountain was sold for total consideration of up to $21 million and a 9.9% equity interest in Q-Gold

• Alamos was recognized for the second consecutive year as a TSX30 TM 2025 winner by the Toronto Stock

Exchange in September 2025. The annual ranking recognizes the 30 top performing stocks over a three -year

Environment, Social and Governance Summary Performance

Health and Safety

• Total Recordable Injury Frequency Rate1 ("TRIFR") of 1.47 in the fourth quarter

• Lost time injury frequency rate1 ("LTIFR") of nil in the fourth quarter

• Alamos had 19 recordable injuries across its sites and no lost time injuries in the fourth quarter. For the full

year, Alamos had 56 recordable injuries across its sites including 3 LTIs

• For the full year, TRIFR was 1.14 and LTIFR was 0.06, down 35% and 42%, respectively, from the prior

year

Alamos had a strong safety performance in 2025, achieving its lowest TRIFR on record, while recognizing that

continued effort is required to achieve our ultimate goal of zero harm. Alamos strives to maintain a safe, healthy

working environment for all, with a strong safety culture where everyone is continually reminded of the importance

of keeping themselves and their colleagues healthy and injury -free. The Company’s overarching commitment is to

have all employees and contractors return Home Safe Every Day.

In 2026, the Company plans to roll out safety leadership training across all sites in connection with the launch of

Alamos’ Home Safe Eight, a new initiative consisting of eight non ‑negotiable safety rules targeting high ‑risk

activities. These rules, which focus on areas such as energy isolation, working at heights, and safe vehicle

operation, are designed to significantly reduce the potential for injury through consistent and disciplined application.

Environment

• Zero significant environmental incidents for the fourth quarter and full year, and one reportable spill in the

fourth quarter

• Continued reclamation activities at the Cerro Pelon, El Victor and San Carlos pits in the Mulatos District

The one reportable spill occurred at the Island Gold District, where approximately 40 cubic metres of tailings slurry

was released due to a pipeline decoupling at the Magino mill. This was promptly addressed at the time of

occurrence and is not expected to have any lasting impact on the natural environment. The Company is committed

to preserving the long-term health and viability of the natural environment that surrounds its operations and projects.

This includes investing in new initiatives to reduce the Company's environmental footprint with the goal of

minimizing the impacts of its activities.

The Company’s objective is to operate a sustainable business model that supports growing returns to all

stakeholders over the long -term, through growing production, expanding margins, and increasing profitability. This

includes a balanced approach to capital allocation focused on generating strong ongoing free cash flow while re -

investing in high-return internal growth opportunities, and supporting higher returns to shareholders.

2025 Year in Review

From an operational perspective, the past year was not reflective of the Company's long track record of execution.

Full year production of 545,000 ounces was lower than planned, down 4% from 2024, and at higher costs. Despite

the operational challenges, the Company delivered a record financial performance in 2025 and made strong

progress on its growth initiatives.

Revenues increased 34% from 2024 to a record $1.8 billion. Through higher gold prices and increasing margins, the

Company generated record free cash flow of $351.7 million while continuing to fund its high-return growth initiatives,

and a record exploration program. All three operations generated strong mine -site free cash flow, including $221.5

million from the Mulatos District, a record $249.9 million from Young-Davidson, and a record $205.0 million from the

Island Gold District while funding the Phase 3+ Shaft Expansion.

Additionally, the Company made strong progress on its growth initiatives, which are expected to nearly double gold

production to approximately one million ounces annually by 2030, underpinning one of the strongest outlooks in the

sector. The Phase 3+ Expansion continues to advance with the shaft on track to begin skipping ore by the end of

2026. Work on the expansion of the Magino mill began during 2025, while the Company completed an evaluation of

the optimal size of a larger expansion of the Island Gold District given the significant ongoing growth in Mineral

Reserves and Resources.

The study was completed earlier this month, with the announcement of the IGD Expansion to 20,000 tpd which is

expected to create one of the largest, lowest -cost, and most profitable gold mines in Canada. Following the

expected completion of the expansion in 2028, annual production is expected to average 534,000 ounces over the

initial 10 years, a 27% increase from the Base Case LOM announced in June 2025, and a 113% increase from

2025, at low mine-site AISC of $1,025 per ounce. The Expansion Study also incorporated a 30% increase in Mineral

Reserves to eight million ounces compared to the Base Case LOM Plan, supporting a 19 year mine life.
