PRESS RELEASE
Sranan Provides Update on Late Filing of Financial Statements
Edmonton, Alberta, February 18, 2026 – Sranan Gold Corp. (CSE: SRAN; OTCQB: SRANF)
(“Sranan” or the “ Company”) continues to work towards the filing of its annual audited
financial statements , management’s discussion and analysis , and CEO and CFO
certifications for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2025 (the “Required Filings”).
The previously identified transactional complexities have been addressed, and the review of
the transactions is ongoing. The principal remaining items relate to transaction accounting
testing and clarification of VAT treatment in Suriname , with other minor items including tax
provision calculations, confirmations, and procedural documentation. As the audit has
progressed, the volume of supporting documentation has increased and is being provided
to the auditor, resulting in outstanding audit items representing approximately 18%. Sranan
remains in ongoing communication with its auditor to confirm any remaining documentation
requirements and has committed to providing any outstanding materials promptly upon
request. Sranan anticipates that the audited financial statements will be completed and
filed on or before February 27, 2026.
The Required Filings were due to be filed by January 28, 2026. In connection with the
anticipated delays in making the Required Filings, the Company made an application for a
Management Cease Trade Order (“ MCTO”) under National Policy 12 -203 Management
Cease Trade Orders (“ NP 12-203 ”) to the Alberta Securities Commission, as principal
regulator for the Company, and the MCTO was issued on January 2 9, 2026 . The MCTO
restricts all trading by the Company’s CEO and CFO in securities of the Company, whether
direct or indirect. The issuance of the MCTO does not affect the ability of persons who are
not directors, officers or insiders of the Company to trade their securities. The MCTO will
remain in effect until the Required Filings are filed or until it is revoked or varied.
The Company currently expects to file its interim first -quarter financial statements on or
before the applicable filing due date.
Both the Company and its auditors are working diligently towards the completion and filing
of the Required Filings, and the Company will provide additional updates.
The Company confirms that it intends to satisfy the provisions of the alternative information
guidelines described in NP 12-203 by issuing bi-weekly default status reports in the form of
a news release until it meets the Required Filings requirement. The Company has not taken
any steps towards any insolvency proceeding and the Company has no material information
relating to its affairs that has not been generally disclosed.
For further information with respect to the MCTO, please refer to the Company’s news
releases dated January 21 , 2026 , and February 4, 2026, available for viewing on the
