FOUR NINES GOLD ANNOUNCES $3 MILLION NON-BROKERED PRIVATE PLACEMENT

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA, February 24, 2026, Four Nines Gold Inc. (“Four Nines” or the “Company”) (CSE: FNAU, OTC: FNAUF) is pleased to announce that it intends to undertake a non-brokered private placement (the “Private Placement”) of units of the Company (each, a “Unit”) to raise gross proceeds of CAD $3 million, with a 20% over-allotment for total gross proceeds of up to CAD $3.6 million.

Each Unit is priced at CAD $0.20 per Unit, with each Unit consisting of one common share in the capital of the Company (each, a “Share”) and one-half of one transferable share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a “Warrant”). Each Warrant is exercisable into one Share (each, a “Warrant Share”) at a price of $0.35 per Warrant Share for a period of two (2) years from the issuance date.  The Warrants will be subject to an acceleration right in favor of the Company whereby, in the event that the Company’s Shares trade at a price on the Canadian Securities Exchange (the “CSE”) (or such other exchange on which the Shares may be traded at such time) of $0.50 or greater per Share for a period of 10 consecutive trading days after four months and one day from the closing of the Private Placement, the Company may accelerate the expiry of the Warrants by giving notice to the holders thereof (by public news release and email to registered holders advising of the acceleration of the expiry date of the Warrants) and, in such case, the Warrants will expire on the tenth (10th) business day after the date of such notice.

The gross proceeds from the sale of the Units will be used for general working capital purposes, as well as mineral exploration and advancement of the Company’s Hayden Hill gold-silver project.

The Private Placement is subject to certain conditions including, but not limited to, clearing any comments that may be received during the standard prescribed period as required by CSE policies. Finder’s fees may be payable in connection with the Private Placement.

Forward-looking statements and the assumptions made in respect thereof involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors beyond the Company’s control. Forward-looking statements in this press release include statements regarding the private placement, including the ability of the Company to close the financing, raise funds as expected, and to utilize those funds on a post-closing basis.
