On March 24, 2026, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary Alacer Gold Corp. S.à r.l., entered into a definitive share purchase agreement with Cengiz Holding A.S. (“Cengiz Holding”), a corporation organized under the laws of the Republic of Türkiye, to divest its 80% ownership interest in the Çöpler mine and related properties in Türkiye for cash consideration of approximately $1.5 billion, subject to certain post-closing adjustments. The transaction is expected to close in the third quarter of 2026, subject to required Turkish regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions. The Company determined that in conjunction with entering into the share purchase agreement, the operations of the Çöpler mine meet the criteria for classification as held for sale and for discontinued operations reporting, see Note 3 and Note 4 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

Current report
Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $1.3 million as compared to $1.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025.
