(<a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/Tracker?data=EsDt_FOyWQKJjyVa26pO2jv1rP0L5OeMyfzYybG_Pn7ShdTAMVDeoTgzP67v_DdXYTrhbC9UtCWze9tYWmBdzxn7xOniKsXWB526bWxX6lURPKadDCys1o4GriHzkcus" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="">TSX: TLG; OTCQX: CHXMF; FSE: CM5</a>) (“Troilus” or the “Company”), is pleased to announce that a non-binding Letter of Interest (“LOI”) from Finnvera plc (“Finnvera”), Finland’s official export credit agency, has been issued in connection with the Metso Corporation (“Metso”) equipment procurement recently announced for the gold-copper Troilus Project in north-central Québec (see press release dated <a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/Tracker?data=ReZ6XY_yIaRI7dSB0CiCCFRtiO3O0B0-TFeWGdU3kaF12R3H1Gu3j--m5jyE6o_atnn66oTto8twDIW3ZMHwz0EzOHANHlPRJi62TIuC_ZML7O0UpPRsNqvXshLi40_X_vQZMvJabJNyIE3aPMM-BgIHIHYDyhOveUvf7RlEzwoTqMEk6ewpdmxUuEqn6tanx4pY9gnzBKsg1qFOchajM49RogncObr8bLzoz7i8J08=" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="">Au</a>gust 25, 2026). The Finnvera LOI with Metso relates to an estimated US$155 million export transaction involving Metso equipment and services for the Project. Under the contemplated structure, Finnvera may support financing of up to 85% of the value of eligible goods and services imported into Canada, representing up to approximately US$132 million based on the estimated transaction value. The financing would be provided by an eligible commercial bank with Finnvera support, providing another potential source of competitive long-term financing as Troilus advances major equipment procurement and construction readiness. Further Strengthening Troilus’ International Financing Framework The Finnvera LOI complements Troilus’ broader project financing strategy and builds on Finnvera’s existing participation as an export credit agency in the Company’s project financing process. Troilus is currently advancing a senior secured project financing mandate of up to US$1.2 billion with Société Générale, KfW IPEX-Bank and Export Development Canada as Mandated Lead Arrangers, alongside support from leading Canadian and European export credit agencies, including Finnvera (see press release dated <a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/Tracker?data=1KkFKM12CiGGCDACbpSGndgOZVnRYRKkQjsR59DPHInxrWO4ulFkPpg0dW4v7LPG36hGmSqdGU3SB_X8fvp6RnNvFVYreq9KJPhFANzzufINVitLrSm1a6o5Z9cg-sLE8d6JW3rg4bBZivzQ_qk3HEHQkScANaBQ_MYPfHQIMz84aTVxS8lyyApHW5Zn6Dh2lMohMv6h0cbfL0BFmdsSQQ==" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="">May 5, </a>2026). The potential support related to the Metso procurement further demonstrates the alignment between Troilus’ procurement and financing strategies as the Project advances toward construction. By working with leading international equipment suppliers and export credit agencies in parallel, Troilus continues to develop a diversified and competitive financing framework designed to support construction of the Project. Justin Reid, CEO and Director of Troilus, commented, “The Finnvera LOI adds a positive dimension to the Metso procurement and represents an important advancement in our broader project financing strategy. The potential for up to approximately US$132 million in export credit support provides another attractive financing avenue as we continue advancing Troilus toward construction. Finnvera is already participating in our broader project financing process, and we are very pleased to see the potential scope of that relationship expand alongside our advancing procurement program. This demonstrates how our procurement and financing strategies are increasingly working together and further strengthens the diversified international financing framework we are building for Troilus.” Metso Equipment Procurement On <a href="https://www.globenewswire.com/Tracker?data=sYJ1BnPDPfz_amnWwj5K4eo58Um6BWcC6dwijcd_sXxhADr__UT2zvbUhiOLVGCAEdWcgtO1vG5dUTlLQDfDIKgXK6zhg0VGyrhQ0cS3VDMo0am_annEvV4nxsJ9L3zsRceyAU1cO6p0rViTUh4Z8oVLSxjTI5_WCRCZ2wWmhcKeu60N9rFn2vvsIgaE1An_lagB7DfolspYn9FyU3F0m5LWCYkW4kY4FvE6uJEu9Ok-cBsl5ODCPVbLiJ0JRxil" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" title="">August 25,</a> 2026, Troilus announced the selection of Finland-based Metso, a leading global provider of mineral processing technologies and services, for the first phase of major process equipment procurement for the Project.
