Current report

In January 2026, the Company announced continued progress at its Mt Todd gold project and outlined the pathway to initiate detailed engineering and design in 2027. The Company expects this milestone to initiate a period of approximately 27 months for design, construction, and commissioning.

Current report

Our focus for 2026 is on establishing the foundation for the successful execution of the Mt Todd project. Priorities include all activities leading to permit modification approvals to align existing approved permits with the Mt Todd FS; expanding corporate capability by building an Australia-based team to lead project development; completing pre-development optimizations as recommended in the Mt Todd FS to provide key inputs for detailed engineering and design; and project execution planning. On March 9, 2026, Vista closed a public offering (the “March 2026 Offering”) for aggregate gross proceeds totaling $44,850, with net proceeds of $42,006, to fund these priorities and other general corporate purposes.

Current report

We have commenced efforts to obtain permit modifications and are actively engaged with consultants, regulators, and stakeholders. Some modifications have already been submitted, and programs to support other submissions are in progress. We anticipate the approval of these modifications will be achieved in 2027.

Current report

Since the start of the year, we have hired four project management team members to be based in Perth and an approvals manager based in Darwin. We have increased our corporate capacity in the areas of projects/technical services, external

Current report

relations/social performance, legal, and administration/finance/market relations. We are currently recruiting an Australian-based managing director who will be responsible for delivering the Mt Todd project. Later this year we plan to begin building the project development team.

Current report

We are completing pre-development optimizations in line with the recommendations presented in the Mt Todd FS. Recent drilling has provided core for selective metallurgical testing to optimize grind size and gold recoveries and provide data for the optimal selection and sizing of equipment for the process plant. We have commenced a geotechnical review, with drilling and geotechnical mapping in progress in the Batman pit to assess the opportunity to steepen the west pit wall, reduce stripping, and potentially convert additional mineral resources to mineral reserves.

Current report

Exploration, property evaluation and holding costs were $1,654 and $1,538 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Recurring site activities were higher in 2026, due to the addition of project management team members and higher power costs due to water management pumping requirements, offset by lower project program costs in 2026 compared to the prior year which included work on the Mt Todd FS.

Current report

Corporate administration costs were $1,631 and $1,298 during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025. Expenses in the comparable three-month periods were higher because of additional legal, consulting, and board costs associated with ongoing advancement of Mt Todd.

Current report

Interest income was $185 and $169 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The increase in the comparable three-month period was due to higher invested cash balances from the March 2026 Offering for part of the period.

Current report

Net cash used in investing activities was $nil and $184 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Cash used in investing activities in 2025 was for expenditures for capitalized development costs and purchases of plant and equipment.

Current report

The Company continues to prioritize the efficient use of financial resources to advance Mt Todd. Our funding strategy is to maintain adequate liquidity to support near-term objectives while minimizing share dilution. The primary measure of liquidity considered by the Company is available cash, cash equivalents, and any short-term investments. As a secondary measure, we consider current assets, net of current liabilities (“Working Capital”).

Current report

The following table sets forth the Company’s primary and secondary measures of liquidity at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025:

Current report

The net increase in cash and cash equivalents during the three months ended March 31, 2026 resulted primarily from net proceeds of the March 2026 Offering, offset by other net cash outflows. On March 9, 2026, Vista closed the March 2026 Offering of 17,940,000 Common Shares, inclusive of the underwriters’ exercise of their 15% overallotment option, at a price of $2.50 per Common Share. Aggregate gross proceeds from the Offering totaled $44,850. After deductions for underwriting discounts, commissions and other costs, net proceeds totaled $42,006. We intend to use the net proceeds to advance exploration and development activities at our Mt Todd gold project and for general corporate purposes. Details regarding financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2026 are presented in the “Results from Operations” section above and the preceding narratives in this section regarding operating activities, investing activities, and financing activities.

Current report

For the 12-month period following March 31, 2026, the Company estimates its net expenditures will include approximately $8,600 for recurring expenditures and approximately $7,100 for non-recurring project program costs. Recurring expenditures include ongoing Mt Todd site maintenance; other Australia non-site costs for personnel and general costs; and corporate costs. Non-recurring program costs relate primarily to activities in preparation for the start of detailed engineering, including: metallurgical and geotechnical evaluations; project execution planning; the preparation and submission of applications for permit modifications and related studies and other activities; treatment and discharge of water from the Batman pit; and other technical, social, and administrative programs to better position Mt Todd for the start of detailed engineering and design. As these programs advance, additional activities may arise that will require expenditures beyond management’s current estimates. Management expects to fund Vista’s activities during the next twelve months from existing Working Capital.

Current report

During the quarter, the Company continued to advance the Mt Todd Gold Project toward development by commencing the process of seeking permit modification approvals, hiring a significant part of the core project management team, and progressing key pre-development optimization in line with recommendations outlined in the Mt Todd FS.

Current report

The Company filed its first applications for permit modifications, is finalizing other applications, and has initiated studies to provide supporting documentation for others.

Current report

Since the start of the year, we have hired four project management team members to be based in Perth and an approvals manager based in Darwin. We have increased our corporate capacity in the areas of projects/technical services, external relations/social performance, legal, and administration/finance/market relations. We are currently recruiting an Australian-based managing director who will be responsible for delivering the Mt Todd project.

Current report

A comprehensive metallurgical test program that will evaluate new core obtained from drilling completed in late 2025 and early 2026 is about to begin at ALS facilities in Balcatta, Western Australia. This program is designed to optimize grind

Current report

size and gold recoveries and generate additional metallurgical data that will provide critical inputs for the detailed engineering and design of the process plant. Results from the test program are expected in the third quarter of 2026.

Current report

In addition, the Company commenced a geotechnical program, with a drill rig and contractor personnel now on site. The results of this comprehensive geotechnical assessment are expected to support optimization of the current open pit design, including favorable changes to the slope of the pit wall on the west side of the pit with potential improvements to the stripping ratio of the current pit.

Current report

The recently concluded wet season in the NT saw approximately 50% more rainfall at Mt Todd than is recorded in a normal wet season. Regionally, the NT experienced considerable flooding as a result of unusually heavy rain received in March. The Company experienced only minor road damage and debris accumulation at the site with no accidents related to the flooding and road closures. The excessive rains resulted in greater accumulation of water in the Batman pit and tailings storage facility. The Company is pumping water from the tailings facility and has filed an application to treat the water in the Batman pit later this year and to commence discharging treated water, as it has in past years, during the next wet season.

Previous report

The Company continues to prioritize the efficient use of financial resources to advance Mt Todd. Our funding strategy is to maintain adequate liquidity while minimizing share dilution as we seek to preserve, enhance, and realize value from Mt Todd. The Company periodically raises funds in the capital markets and considers alternative strategies and possible corporate opportunities as ways to enhance its liquidity and deliver shareholder value.

Previous report

The Company recognized a gain on grant of royalty interest in mineral titles of $16,909 in June 2024. The gain comprises the previously deferred gain on instalment payments totaling $10,000 and the gain on $10,000 received for the final instalment, net of the associated mineral property carrying value of $3,091 as of the date the final instalment was received.

Previous report

Exploration, property evaluation and holding costs were $1,237 and $1,081 for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively; and $4,559 and $2,462 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. In addition to recurring site activities in each year, the Company carried out a development drilling program during 2024 and completed the 2025 FS in 2025. The variances in the three- and nine-month periods resulted largely from capitalization of the drilling program in 2024, whereas the feasibility study work was expensed in 2025.

Previous report

Corporate administration costs were $846 and $738 during the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024; and $2,822 and $2,773 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Expenses in the comparable three- and nine-month periods were higher because of a modest increase in corporate activities and year-over-year cost increases.

Previous report

In March 2024, the Company recorded a gain of $802 upon sale of certain components of our used mill equipment. Gross proceeds totaled $900 and were offset by selling expense of $98.

Previous report

Interest income was $134 and $230 for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively; and $443 and $496 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The decrease in the comparable three-month period was due to a decrease in the average interest rate applicable to invested cash balances and a lower average cash balance. The decrease in the comparable nine-month period was due to a decrease in the average interest rate applicable to invested cash balances.

Previous report

Other income (expense) was $1,248 and ($35) for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively; and $1,218 and ($10) for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The increase in the comparable three and nine-month periods was due to the receipt of $1,257 related to our recovery of certain tax amounts paid in connection with the 2020 sale of the Los Reyes gold project in Mexico.

Previous report

Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities was ($536) and $16,139 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Cash provided by investing activities was higher in 2024 because the Company received Royalty Agreement proceeds totaling $17,000 and net proceeds from the sale of certain used mill equipment of $802. Cash used in investing activities was lower by $1,353 in 2025 because substantially all 2024 drilling costs were capitalized as development costs while the 2025 FS costs were expenses and included as cash used in operating activities. Cash used in investing activities for purchases of plant and equipment was higher by $226 in 2025 due to installation of an enhanced evaporation system.

Previous report

The Company considers available cash, cash equivalents, and any short-term investments to be its primary measure of liquidity. Our cash liquidity position as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, included cash and cash equivalents was $13,717 and $16,950, respectively. This represents a net decrease of $3,233 during the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

Previous report

Current assets, net of current liabilities (“Working Capital”), is a secondary measure of liquidity for the Company. The Company had Working Capital of $12,787 and $16,457 at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. This represents a net decrease of $3,670 during the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

Previous report

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company’s primary sources of cash inflows were $2,212 from equity financing activity, receipt of $1,257 related to our recovery of certain tax amounts paid previously, and interest income of $443. These sources of cash were offset by operating cash outflows of $6,341 and other expenditures of $804. Recurring costs for corporate administration and Mt Todd maintenance, and spending on the 2025 FS and other project programs comprise most of the Company’s operating cash outflows during the nine months ended September 30, 2025. Of the other expenditures, $386 related to additions of plant and equipment and $150 related to Vista’s mineral resources development activities at Mt Todd. Additional details regarding financial results for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 are presented in the “Results from Operations” section above and the preceding narratives in this section regarding operating activities, investing activities, and financing activities.

Previous report

For the 12-month period following September 30, 2025, the Company estimates net recurring expenditures will be approximately $7,400, plus $2,000 of non-recurring project program costs related to upcoming metallurgical evaluations; final payments for the 2025 FS and enhanced water evaporation equipment; permit modifications; and ongoing Mt Todd site maintenance costs. Management expects to fund Vista’s activities during the next twelve months from existing Working Capital. Equity financing may also be utilized to supplement the Company’s Working Capital.

Previous wording

The 2025 FS marks a significant shift in the strategy for Mt Todd, demonstrating the potential for near-term development of a smaller, lower capital cost project than previously evaluated. The Study incorporates the use of contract mining, third-party power generation, and other design and operating practices to reduce operational risks. The 2025 FS demonstrates the opportunity for Mt Todd to deliver attractive economic returns with stable gold production over a 30-year mine life. The Study does not assume any expansion of the planned mining/processing rate, but the 15,000 tpd design layout provides ample space for future expansion of the processing plant.
