Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1. Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Paramount Gold Nevada Corp. (the “Company” or “Paramount”), incorporated under the General Corporation Law of the State of Nevada, and its wholly-owned subsidiaries are engaged in the acquisition, exploration and development of precious metal properties. The Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries include New Sleeper Gold LLC, Sleeper Mining Company, LLC, and Calico Resources USA Corp (“Calico”). The Company is in the process of exploring its mineral properties in Nevada and Oregon, United States. The Company’s activities are subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including the risk of failing to secure additional funding to advance its projects and the risks of determining whether these properties contain reserves that are economically recoverable. The Company’s shares of common stock trade on the NYSE AMERICAN LLC under the symbol “PZG”.

Basis of Presentation and Preparation

The consolidated financial statements are prepared by management in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP") and are presented in US dollars. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of these consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Significant estimates made by management in the accompanying consolidated financial statements include the adequacy of the Company’s reclamation and environmental obligation, valuation of deferred tax asset, warrant liability, derivative liability and assessment of impairment of mineral properties.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

All highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase are classified as cash and cash equivalents. The carrying amount of these securities approximates fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents. The Company maintains cash in accounts which may, at times, exceed federally insured limits. At June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company had cash balances in excess of federally insured limits. The Company deposits its cash with financial institutions which it believes have sufficient credit quality to minimize the risk of loss.

Fair Value Measurements

The Company has adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, which defines fair value, establishes guidelines for measuring fair value and expands disclosures regarding fair value measurements. The Company applies fair value accounting for all financial assets and liabilities and non-financial assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the consolidated financial statements on a recurring basis. The Company defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between arm's length market participants at the measurement date.

The Company has adopted FASB ASC 825, Financial Instruments, which allows companies to choose to measure eligible financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not required to be measured at fair value. The Company has not elected the fair value option for any eligible financial instruments.

Stock Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date and based on the calculated fair value of the award. For grants to employees an expense is recognized over the employee’s requisite service period (generally the vesting period of the equity grant) using the graded vesting method. For grants to non-employees, an expense is recognized when the good or service is received.

For options with performance conditions, the Company accrues compensation if it is probable that the performance condition will be achieved and recognizes the compensation cost over the requisite service period. The requisite service period for options with performance conditions is estimated based on the analysis of the terms of the award and the specific performance conditions. The

Company shall recognize the effect of forfeited awards in compensation cost when they occur. New shares of the Company’s common stock will be issued for any options exercised.

The fair value of Restricted Share Units ("RSUs") and stock awards are based on the Company's stock price on the day of grant. Stock based compensation expense related to RSUs and stock awards is generally recognized over the requisite service period using the graded vesting method. Vesting dates for RSUs with performance conditions are determined by an analysis of the implicit service period of the performance target. The Company shall recognize the effect of forfeited awards in compensation cost when they occur. New shares of the Company's common stock will be issued for any RSUs that vest to the recipient.

Mineral Properties

Mineral property acquisition costs are capitalized when incurred and will be amortized using the units-of-production method over the estimated life of the reserve following the commencement of production. If a mineral property is subsequently abandoned or impaired, any capitalized costs will be expensed in the period of abandonment or impairment.

Acquisition costs include cash consideration and the fair market value of shares issued on the acquisition of mineral properties. Net proceeds from the sale of royalties are deducted from the carrying value of the mineral properties.

The recoverability of the carrying values of our mineral property is dependent on the ability of the Company to advance the projects to production, upon future profitable production or from proceeds from the sale of properties or production royalties. If the Company is unable to obtain additional funding, the Company may be unable to continue its operations, and amounts realized for assets may be less than amounts reflected in these consolidated financial statements.

Exploration Costs

Exploration costs, which include maintenance, development and exploration of mineral claims, are expensed as incurred. When it is determined that a mineral deposit can be economically developed as a result of establishing proven and probable reserves and all regulatory operating permits have been secured, the costs incurred after such determination will be capitalized until the commencement of production and amortized over their useful lives. To date, the Company has not established the commercial feasibility and received the necessary regulatory operating permits for any of its exploration prospects; therefore, all exploration costs are being expensed.

Property and Equipment

Equipment is recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation. All equipment is depreciated over its estimated useful life.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company tests long-lived assets or asset groups for recoverability when events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable. Circumstances which could trigger a review include, but are not limited to: significant decreases in the market price of the asset; significant adverse changes in the business climate or legal factors; accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the acquisition or construction of the asset; current period cash flow or operating losses combined with a history of losses or a forecast of continuing losses associated with the use of the asset; and current expectation that the asset will more likely than not be sold or disposed of significantly before the end of its estimated useful life.

The Company assesses the carrying value of mineral properties for whenever information or events indicate the potential for impairment. This would include our inability to obtain all the necessary regulatory permits to build and operate mines related to our mineral properties, government actions, the results of exploration activities and technical evaluations and changes in key economic conditions such as the price of gold and silver or key inputs to the building and operating of a mine including initial capital, yearly production levels and operating expenses. We compare estimated future net cash flows with our carrying costs and future obligations on an undiscounted basis. The undiscounted cash flows are based on the amounts we expect to receive from the sale of gold and silver produced from the mine, the level of operating expenses we expect to incur to produce the gold and silver that is recovered from the mineral deposit and the level of capital expected to build, operate and sustain the mine operations. If it is determined that the estimated future undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying value of the property, a write-down to the estimated fair value will be reported in our Consolidated Statement of Operations for the period. There has beenno impairment of our mineral properties for the fiscal years-ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.

Reclamation and Environmental Obligation

The Company follows the provisions of ASC 410, “Asset Retirement and Environmental Obligations”, which establishes the standards for the initial measurement and subsequent accounting for obligations associated with the sale, abandonment, or other disposal of long-lived tangible assets arising from the acquisition, construction or development and for normal operations of such assets. The fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation will be recognized in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. The fair value of the liability is added to the carrying amount of the associated asset. An accretion cost, representing the increase over time in the present value of the liability, is recorded each period. As reclamation work is performed or liabilities are otherwise settled, the recorded amount of the liability is reduced. Future reclamation costs are accrued based on management’s best estimate at the end of each period of the discounted costs expected to be incurred for the asset. Such costs include facilities removal, earthworks, revegetation and on-going monitoring. Changes in estimates are reflected prospectively in the period an estimate is revised.

Net Loss per Share

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during each period. Diluted loss per share reflect the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock.

For the years ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the shares of common stock equivalents related to outstanding stock options, restricted share units have not been included in the diluted per share calculation as they are anti-dilutive as the Company has recorded a net loss from continuing operations for each year.

Leases

The Company determines if an arrangement is, or contains, a lease at the inception date. Right-of-use (“ROU”) assets related to operating leases are included in Other assets, non-current with related liabilities included in Accrued liabilities and Other long-term liabilities. ROU assets under finance leases, which primarily represent property and equipment, are included in Property, plant and equipment, net with related liabilities in debt, current and debt, non-current on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Operating lease assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the estimated present value of lease payments over the lease term. We use our estimated incremental borrowing rate in determining the present value of lease payments. Variable components of the lease payments such as maintenance costs are expensed as incurred and not included in determining the present value. Our lease terms include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Currently, the Company does not have any leases with terms greater than 12 months.

Convertible Debt

The Company reviews the terms of its convertible debenture or debt to determine whether to account for any portion of the proceeds towards the conversion feature. In general, when the convertible debenture or debt has the following characteristics and terms no portion of the proceeds from the issuance shall be accounted for as attributable to the conversion feature: a) is convertible into common stock of the Company at a specified price at the option of the holder; b) the debt is sold at a price or has value at issuance not significantly in excess of the face amount; c) an interest rate that is lower than the Company could establish for nonconvertible debt; d) an initial conversion price that is greater than the fair value of the common stock at the time of issuance and; e) a conversion price that does not decrease except pursuant to antidilution provisions. When proceeds are not attributable to the conversion features of the debt, the Company records the entire amount as a liability. If the fair value option is not elected, the Company will reduce the initial carrying amount of the debt by any direct and incremental issuance costs paid to third parties that are associated with the convertible debt issuance.

The Company also reviews the terms of its convertible debt or debenture to determine whether there are embedded derivatives, including the embedded conversion option, that are required to be bifurcated and accounted for as individual derivative financial instruments. In circumstances where convertible debt contains embedded derivatives that are required to be separated from the host contracts, the total proceeds received are first allocated to the fair value of the derivative financial instruments determined using the binomial model. The remaining proceeds, if any, are then allocated to the debenture cost contracts, usually resulting in those instruments being recorded at a discount from their principal amount. This discount is accreted over the expected life of the instruments to profit (loss) using the effective interest method.

The debenture host contracts are subsequently recorded at amortized cost at each reporting date, using the effective interest method. The embedded derivatives are subsequently recorded at fair value at each reporting date, with changes in fair value recognized in profit (loss).

Derivative Liability

The Company reviews the terms of its convertible debt to determine whether there are embedded derivatives that are required to be bifurcated and accounted for as individual derivative financial instruments. The Company determined that a conversion feature embedded in its convertible debt is required to be accounted for separately from the convertible loan as a derivative liability and recorded at fair value and the remaining value allocated to the convertible loan net the unamortized debt issuance costs. The derivative liability will be fair valued at each reporting period, with changes in fair value recorded as a gain or loss in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Warrants

The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant's specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in ASC 480 – Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity(“ASC 480”) and ASC 815-40, Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company’s Own Stock(“ASC 815-40”). The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company's own common stock and whether the warrant holders could potentially require net cash settlement in a circumstance outside of the Company's control, among other conditions for equity classification.

For issued or modified warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as a component of equity at the time of issuance and are not subsequently remeasured. For issued or modified warrants that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as liabilities at their initial fair value on the date of issuance, and at each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the fair value of the warrants are recognized as an unrealized gain or loss in Other Expense on the consolidated statement of operations.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are determined using the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the period that includes the enactment date. In addition, a valuation allowance is established to reduce any deferred tax asset for which it is determined that it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.

Potential benefits of income tax losses are not recognized in the accounts until realization is more likely than not. Potential benefits of net operating losses have not been recognized in these financial statements because the Company cannot be assured it is more likely than not it will utilize the net operating losses carried forward in future periods; and accordingly is offset by a valuation allowance.

To the extent interest and penalties may be assessed by taxing authorities on any underpayment of income tax, such amounts would be accrued and classified as a component of income tax expense in our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss.

Note 2. Recent Accounting Guidance

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, 'Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses,' aimed at enhancing the transparency of expense information in financial statements. The ASU seeks to improve the decision usefulness of expense information by requiring public business entities to disaggregate certain expense captions in the notes to financial statements. This includes detailed disclosures of purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, amortization, and depletion expenses. This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. The Company is currently reviewing the impact of adopting the provisions of this new ASU on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Note 3. Going Concern

The Company has not generated any revenues or cash flows from operations to date. As such the Company is subject to all the risks associated with development stage companies. Since inception, the Company has incurred losses and negative cash flows from operating activities which have been funded from the issuance of common stock, convertible notes, note payable and the sale of royalties on its mineral properties. The Company does not expect to generate positive cash flows from operating activities in the near future, if at all, until such time it successfully initiates production at its Grassy Mountain or Sleeper Projects, including obtaining construction financing, completing the construction of the proposed mine and anticipates incurring operating losses for the foreseeable future.

The Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company have been prepared on a “going concern” basis, which means that the continuation of the Company is presumed even though events and conditions exist that, when considered in aggregate, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern because it is possible that the Company will be required to adversely change its current business plan or may be unable to meet its obligations as they become due within one year after the date that these financial statements are issued.

Paramount expects to continue to incur losses as a result of costs and expenses related to maintaining its properties and general and administrative expenses. Since 2015, the Company has relied on equity financings, debt financings and sale of royalties to fund its operations and the Company expects to rely on these forms of financing to fund operations into the near future.

Paramount’s current business plan requires working capital to fund non-discretionary expenditures for its exploration and development activities on its mineral properties, mineral property holding costs and general and administrative expenses.

Subsequent to September 17, 2026, the Company expects to fund operations as follows:

Existing cash on hand and working capital.

The existing ATM with Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. and A.G.P/Alliance Global Partners.

Insurance proceeds to fund reclamation and environmental obligations at its Sleeper Gold Project.

Equity financings and sale of royalties.

At June 30, 2026, the Company’s cash balance was $9,931,206.

Historically, the Company has been successful in accessing capital through equity and debt financing arrangements or by the sale of royalties on its mineral properties, no assurance can be given that additional financing will be available to it in amounts sufficient to meet its needs, or on terms acceptable to the Company. In the event that the Company is unable to obtain additional capital or financing, the Company's operations, maintenance of our mining claims and the value of our project assets, exploration and development activities would be significantly adversely affected. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent on having sufficient capital to maintain our operations. In considering the Company's financing plans and current working capital position the Company believes there is substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern twelve months after the date that our financial statements are issued.

Note 4. Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value is estimated by applying the following hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three levels and bases the categorization with the hierarchy upon the lowest level of input that is available and significant to the fair value measurement:

The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3).

The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC 820 are described below:

Level 1 Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.

Level 2 Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates); and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

Level 3 Inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.

Financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis by level within the fair value hierarchy. As required by ASC 820, assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Our financial instruments include cash, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, notes payable, the derivative liability of royalty convertible debenture (see Note 7) and warrants (Note 8). Due to their short maturity of our cash, prepaids and deposits, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, we believe that their carrying amounts approximate fair value as of June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025.

The following table present the fair value of liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

Level 1Level 2Level 3Total
Liabilities
Royalty conversion feature——8,946,218$8,946,218
Warrant liability——2,833,9052,833,905

Level 1Level 2Level 3Total
Liabilities
Royalty conversion feature——4,077,929$4,077,929
Total——4,077,929$4,077,929

The Company determined that the derivative liability (Note 7) embedded in the Debenture is required to be accounted for separately from the Debenture as a derivative liability and recorded at fair value and the remaining value allocated to the Debenture net the unamortized debt issuance costs. The derivative liability will be fair valued at each reporting period, with changes in fair value recorded as a gain or loss in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. During the years ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the fair value derivative liability increased by $4,868,289 and $435,824, respectively, and it was recorded in Other expenses on the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

As of June 30, 2026, the Royalty conversion feature is recorded at $8,946,218 (June 30, 2025 - $4,077,929) and is valued based on Level 3 inputs. Several steps were used to calculate the fair value of the Royalty conversion feature on the Debenture. First utilizing the Royalty Agreement's royalty rate of 4.75% for the life of mine, the annual gross royalty amounts were calculated from estimated expected gross revenues of the proposed Grassy Mountain Mine. The gold and silver price assumption was derived by management based on its judgment, taking into account current pricing trends and trends observed in royalty transactions. Also, management considered the mineral reserves of the proposed mine. The annual royalty amounts were discounted using a long term stock market rate of return of 10%. In determining expected future cash flows, management has also considered a number of project-specific risk factors that affect the timing of commencement of production, including the completion of federal and state permitting, the ability to secure construction financing on acceptable terms, and uncertainties related to construction schedules. These risks and key input assumptions could materially impact both the timing and amount of the royalty payments, and therefore the fair value of the Royalty conversion feature.

During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2026, the Company changed the valuation technique used to measure the fair value of the Royalty Conversion feature from the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model to a Monte Carlo Simulation framework. The change was made because appreciation in gold and silver prices have caused the Company's buyback provision to become economically substantive, and a closed-form option pricing model is not able to capture the interaction between the conversion and buyback features. The change in valuation technique was accounted for as a change in accounting estimate and was applied prospectively. For the twelve months ended June 30, 2026, the increase in the gold and silver price assumptions have been the main driver in the increase of the cumulative present value of the royalty stream. The key assumptions in valuing the royalty conversion option derivative include:

 · June 30, 2026 · June 30, 2025
Cumulative present value of royalty stream$24,750,334$16,758,545
Conversion threshold is set as the value of the Debenture$15,000,000$15,000,000
Term in years for Debenture maturity2.493.49
Term in years for buy-back option4.495.49
Volatility (A 2.49 year historical volatility of gold and silver, weighted by relative value in the project, is used as the historical volatility for the royalty stream)22.65%15.93%
Risk-Free Rate (Derived 2.49 year from a term-matched coupon risk-free interest rate derived from the Treasury Constant Maturities yield curve)4.06%3.64%
Dividend yield10%0%
Volatility (A 4.49 year historical volatility of gold and silver, weighted by relative value in the project, is used as the historical volatility for the royalty stream)19.54%
Risk-Free Rate (Derived 4.49 year from a term-matched coupon risk-free interest rate derived from the Treasury Constant Maturities yield curve)4.10%
Payment discount rate15.95%

Dividend yield is set to 0% as no value of the royalty is lost given that production is assumed to begin in year 5

As of June 30, 2026, the warrant liability is recorded at $2,833,905 and is valued based on Level 3 inputs (Note 8). The prefunded warrants are accounted for as a liability and the changes in fair value of the warrants are recognized in the consolidated statement of operations. The cash consideration received at issuance date was reflective of the fair value of the prefunded warrants. To determine the fair value of the prefunded warrants as of June 30, 2026, a weighted-average discount for lack of marketability ("DLOM") rate was estimated by using the Chaffe and Finnerty models, which use Level 3 inputs, including the expected restriction period. A DLOM was applied because the shares issuable upon exercise are subject to resale restrictions under Rule 144 and therefore not immediately freely tradable in the public market. The DLOM rate of 15.48% was applied to the common stock price as of June 30, 2026 to determine the fair value.

Note 5. Non-Cash Transactions

During the year-ended June 30, 2026, the Company issued 1,288,863 shares of Common Stock for payment of interest on its outstanding debt with a fair value of $1,520,833. Also during the year-ended June 30, 2026, the Company recorded a non-cash decrease of $30,196 for its reclamation and environmental obligation and mineral properties.

During the year-ended June 30, 2025, the Company issued 3,845,273 shares of Common Stock for payment of interest on its outstanding debt with a fair value of $1,516,668. During the year-ended June 30, 2025, the Company recorded a decrease of $81,936 for its reclamation and environmental obligation and mineral properties.

Note 6. Capital Stock

Authorized Capital

Authorized capital stock consists of 200,000,000 shares of Common Stock with par value of $0.01 per common share (2025 -200,000,000 shares of Common Stock with par value $0.01 per common share).

During the year-ended June 30, 2026, the Company issued 8,785,663 shares for net proceeds of $13,914,027 through its at-the-market offering and issued 1,288,863 shares for the payment of accrued interest (Note 7) with a fair value of $1,520,833.

During the year-ended June 30, 2025, the Company issued 4,728,165 shares for net proceeds of $2,356,709 through its at-the-market offering and issued 3,845,273 shares for payment of interest accrued and owing (Note 5 and Note 7) with a fair value of $1,516,668. The Company also issued 1,803,000 shares related to awards under its equity compensation plans.

Stock Options, Restricted Stock Units and Stock Based Compensation

Paramount’s 2015 and 2016 Stock Incentive and Compensation Plans, which are stockholder-approved, permits the grant of stock options, restricted stock units and stock to its employees and directors for up to 7.5 million shares of common stock.

Total stock-based compensation for the years-ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 was $474,715 and $589,730, respectively. Total stock-based compensation for the year-ended June 30, 2026 consists of the aggregate of stock-based compensation recorded for outstanding stock-option awards $nil (2025 - $3,328), restricted stock unit awards $390,716 (2025 - $554,542) and restricted stock grant awards $83,999 (2025 - $31,860).

Restricted Stock Grants

During the year-ended June 30, 2026, the Company granted and issued 70,000 shares (2025 -90,000) of Common stock under its equity compensation plan with a fair value of $83,999 (2025 - $31,860) These grants vested immediately and were recognized as share based compensation expense during the year ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.

Stock Options and Stock Based Compensation

Stock option awards are generally granted with an exercise price equal to the market price of Paramount’s stock at the date of grant and have contractual lives of 5 years. To better align the interests of its key executives, employees and directors with those of its shareholders a significant portion of those share option awards will vest contingent upon meeting certain stock price appreciation performance goals and other performance conditions. Option and share awards provide for accelerated vesting if there is a change in control (as defined in the employee equity compensation plan).

For the year-ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company didnot grant any stock options.

For the year-ended June 30, 2026, share-based compensation expense relating to service conditions options and performance conditions options were $nil and $nil, respectively (2025 - $nil and $3,328).

A summary of option activity under the Stock Incentive and Compensation Plan as of June 30, 2026 and 2025, and changes during the years ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 are presented below.

Note 7. Debt

$15,000,000 Secured Royalty Convertible Debenture

Effective as of December 27, 2023, Paramount closed on a Secured Royalty Convertible Debenture (the “Debenture”) with Sprott Private Resource Streaming and Royalty (US Collector), LP (“Sprott”) for $15,000,000. The Debenture bears an interest rate of 10% per annum, which, at Paramount’s discretion, will be payable in cash or shares of its common stock at a 7% discount to the 10-day volume weighted average price ("VWAP") from the scheduled date of payment of interest. The Debenture may be repaid in cash or is convertible into a gross revenue royalty (the “Royalty") of 4.75% of the gold and silver produced from the proposed Grassy Mountain Gold Mine. The Debenture may be repaid in cash or through the issuance of the Royalty at the earlier of the commencement of commercial production or five years from the Debenture closing date. The conversion to the Royalty is at Sprott's sole discretion. Paramount may elect to repay the Debenture by providing 20 business day written notice, in cash only and in whole prior to its maturity at a price equal to the sum of the principal amount plus all accrued and unpaid interest plus a prepayment interest premium equal to 36 months of interest less interest paid prior to the date of prepayment. Upon a sale of the Sleeper Gold Project, Sprott can elect to have a portion of the Debenture repaid with proceeds from the sale. In the event of default, the debenture will accrue interest at 13% per annum. In connection with the issuance of the Debenture, the Company incurred $870,111 of debt issuance costs which will be reflected as a discount on the Debenture. Unamortized debt issuance costs will be amortized over thefive year term of the Debenture and recorded as an interest expense in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

If the Royalty is issued, Paramount has the option to buy back 50% of the Royalty by paying either $11.25 million on the second (2 nd) anniversary of the Royalty or $12.375 million on the third (3 rd) anniversary. The Company’s obligations under the Debenture are secured by a pledge of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries, including without limitation by deeds of trust with respect to the Grassy Mountain project and the Sleeper Gold project. The Company is required to maintain a positive cash balance at all times and shall maintain a positive adjusted working capital amount at the end of each fiscal quarter commencing with the fiscal quarter March 31, 2024. At June 30, 2026, Paramount was in compliance with these loan covenants.

The Company has accounted for the Royalty Conversion Option and related Buyback Provision as an embedded derivative in accordance with ASC 815 and recorded the derivative as a separate liability at fair value. The fair value of the derivative as at June 30, 2026 and 2025 was $8,946,218 and $4,077,929, respectively (Note 4).

At June 30, 2026 and at June 30, 2025, the Debenture consisted of the following:

June 30, 2026June 30, 2025
Debt liability of royalty convertible debenture before issuance costs$12,239,622$12,239,622
Less: unamortized issuance costs(435,055)(609,077)
Net debt liability of royalty convertible debenture11,804,56711,630,545
Derivative liability of royalty convertible debenture8,946,2184,077,929

In connection with the Debenture, Paramount and Calico entered into a Mining Right of First Refusal Option to Purchase Agreement (the “ROFR”) in favor of Sprott. Pursuant to the ROFR, Paramount has granted to Sprott the right of first refusal with respect to any proposed grant, sale or issuance to any third party of a stream, royalty or similar interest (a “Mineral Interest”) based on or with reference to future production from the proposed Grassy Mountain gold and silver mine. If the cash equivalent value (with the value of any non-cash consideration of any third party offer (the “Third Party Consideration”) exceeds $60,000,000 then Sprott shall have the right to buy a percentage interest of the Mineral Interest equal to the percentage that $60,000,000 is to the Third Party Consideration (the “Proportionate Mineral Interest”). If the Third Party Consideration equals or is less than $60,000,000, Sprott shall have the right to buy the entire Mineral Interest subject to such third party offer.

The ROFR shall terminate on the date which is the earlier of (i) the seventh (7th) anniversary of the ROFR; (ii) the closing of one or more purchase transactions between Paramount and Sprott in respect of Mineral Interests for an aggregate purchase price of $60,000,000 upon the exercise by Sprott of its rights pursuant to the ROFR; and (iii) the closing of a purchase transaction between Paramount and third party in respect of a Mineral Interest for a purchase price in excess of $60,000,000 where Sprott does not exercise its right of first refusal pursuant to the ROFR.

Interest Expense

The following table summarizes the components of recorded interest expense:

For the Year Ended June 30, 2026For the Year Ended June 30, 2025
Royalty Convertible Debenture$1,520,833$1,516,667
Amortization of issuance costs on Royalty Convertible Debenture174,022174,022
Total interest expense$1,694,855$1,690,689

Note 8. Warrants

On August 25, 2025, the Company issued 2,941,176 prefunded warrants to purchase common stock for a purchase price of $0.68 per warrant share, in exchange for $2,000,000 in cash consideration, which is reflective of the fair value of the prefunded warrants. The warrants have an exercise price of $0.0001 per share and are exercisable immediately upon issuance. The warrants only expire once they have been exercised in full.

The outstanding warrants are classified as a liability on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The prefunded warrants will be presented within current liabilities as they are exercisable at any time at the holder’s option. The prefunded warrants, which have a nominal exercise price, are measured at fair value by applying a discount to the Company's common stock price at each reporting date.

After the occurrence of an event that is outside of the Company’s control, the warrant holders have the option to elect to exercise the warrant or to exchange the warrant for a security in the successor entity with similar terms and conditions. This term, which provides the warrant holders with a variation in settlement that is not provided to the common shareholders, fails to meet the indexation guidance under ASC 815. As such, the warrants were established as a liability on the balance sheet at the time of issuance and are remeasured to fair value each reporting date by applying a discount to the Company’s common stock price as of the reporting date, which is further discussed in Note 4. As of June 30, 2026, the prefunded warrants have a fair value of $2,833,905. During the year ended June 30, 2026, a change in fair value of $833,905 was recognized as a loss from change in fair value of warrant liability on the consolidated statement of operations. There wereno warrants exercised during the period and the Company had 2,941,176 warrants outstanding and not exercised as of June 30, 2026. The warrants were excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share attributable to common shareholders because their impact would have been antidilutive for the period.

Note 9. Mineral Properties

The Company has capitalized acquisition costs on mineral properties as follows:

June 30, 2026June 30, 2025
Sleeper and other Nevada based Projects$25,721,554$25,701,750
Grassy Mountain and other Oregon based Projects23,435,72823,435,728
Total mineral properties$49,157,282$49,137,478

Sleeper:

Sleeper is located in Humboldt County, Nevada approximately 26 miles northwest of the town of Winnemucca.

For the years-ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company recognized a decrease in the mineral properties for the Sleeper Gold Project due to a change of estimate for its reclamation and environmental obligation in the amount of $30,196 and $81,936, respectively (Note 10).

Grassy Mountain:

The Grassy Mountain Project is located in Malheur County, Oregon, approximately 22 miles south of Vale, Oregon, and roughly 70 miles west of Boise, Idaho.

Other Nevada Based Projects:

During the year ended June 30, 2026, the Company made a payment to Nevada Select in the amount of $50,000 (2025 - $50,000). See Note 14 for a description of the Bald Peak claims.

Impairment of Mineral Properties

The Company reviews and evaluates its long-lived assets for impairment on an annual basis or more frequently when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the related carrying amounts may not be recoverable. For the years ended June 30, 2026 and

2025, no events or changes in circumstance are believed to have impacted recoverability of the Company’s long-lived assets. Accordingly, it was determined that no impairment was necessary.

Note 10. Reclamation and Environmental Obligation:

Reclamation and environmental costs are based principally on legal requirements. Management estimates costs associated with reclamation of mineral properties and properties under mine closure. On an ongoing basis the Company evaluates its estimates and assumptions; however, actual amounts could differ from those based on estimates and assumptions.

The Company has posted several cash bonds as financial security to satisfy reclamation requirements for its BLM mining claims. The balance of posted cash reclamation bonds at June 30, 2026 is $508,781 (June 30, 2025 - $546,176).

Paramount is responsible for managing the reclamation activities from the previous mine operations at the Sleeper Gold Mine as directed by the BLM and the Nevada State Department of Environmental Protection (“NDEP”). Paramount has estimated the undiscounted reclamation costs for existing disturbances and monitoring at the Sleeper Gold Project required by the BLM and NDEP to be $5,742,047 at June 30, 2026. These costs are expected to be incurred between the calendar years 2026 and 2060. The sum of expected costs by year are discounted using the Company’s credit adjusted risk free interest rate from the time it expects to pay the retirement to the time it incurs the obligation. The asset retirement obligation for the Sleeper Gold Project recorded on the balance sheet is equal to the present value of the estimated reclamation costs as required by both the BLM and NDEP.

The following variables were used in the calculation for the fiscal years ending June 30, 2026 and 2025:

Year EndedJune 30, 2026Year Ended June 30, 2025
Weighted-average credit adjusted risk free rate9.90%9.90%
Weighted-average inflation rate2.53%2.53%

Changes to the Company’s asset retirement obligation for the Sleeper Gold Mine for the years ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 are as follows:

Year EndedJune 30, 2026Year Ended June 30, 2025
Balance at beginning of period$2,293,765$2,270,288
Accretion expense227,647225,413

Settlements(120,000)(120,000)
Balance at end of period$2,371,216$2,293,765

During the years ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the changes in estimates were a decrease of $30,196 and $81,936, respectively. Also during the years ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, settlements for the reclamation and environmental obligation totaled $120,000 and $120,000, respectively. For settlements that have no benefit to future mining operations, the corresponding amount recorded in mineral properties are written off (Note 9). The balance of the reclamation and environmental obligation of$2,371,216 (2025 -$2,293,765) is comprised of a current portion of $120,000 (2025 - $120,000) and a non-current portion of $2,251,216 (2025 - $2,173,765).

Note 12. Segmented Information

The Company’sreportable segments are comprised of operating units that have losses or assets exceeding 10% of the respective consolidated totals and are consistent with the Company’s management reporting structure. At Paramount, management organizes its segments by material property to make operating decisions and assessing performance. The Company's properties include the Sleeper Gold Project and the Grassy Mountain Project. Additional operating expenses incurred by the Company are treated as corporate overhead. Interest expense incurred by the Company are included in corporate overhead and the chief operating decision maker (" CODM") does not rely on allocating interest expense by reportable segment to assess performance of the segment. Segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the CODM. The CODM, who is responsible for allocating resources and assessing the performance of the operating segments, has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer.

The potential tax benefits of net operating losses have not been recognized in these financial statements because the Company cannot be assured it is more likely than not it will utilize the net operating losses carried forward in future years.

Accounting for uncertainty for Income Tax

Income taxes are determined using asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the period that includes the enactment date. In addition, a valuation allowance is established to reduce any deferred tax asset for which it is determined that it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.

As of June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company’s consolidated balance sheets did not reflect a liability for uncertain tax positions, nor any accrued penalties or interest associated with income tax uncertainties. The Company is subject to income taxation at the federal and state levels. The Company is currently subject to US federal tax examinations for the tax years 2022 through 2024. Loss carryforwards generated or utilized in years earlier than 2019 are also subject to examination and adjustment. The Company has no income tax examinations in process.

Note 14. Commitments and Contingencies:

Other Commitments

Paramount has an agreement to acquire 44 mining claims (“Cryla Claims”) covering 589 acres located immediately to the west of the proposed Grassy Mountain site from Cryla LLC. Paramount is obligated to make annual lease payments of $40,000 per year the first two years of the lease term and $60,000 per year thereafter with an option to purchase the Cryla Claims for $560,000 at any time. The term of the agreement is 25 years. In the event Paramount exercises its option to acquire the Cryla Claims, all annual payments shall be credited against a production royalty that will be based on a prevailing price of the metals produced from the Cryla Claims. The royalty rate ranges between 2% and 4% based on the daily price of gold. The agreement with Cryla can be terminated by Paramount at any time. Paramount made the annual lease payment of $60,000 as required by the agreement during the year ended June 30, 2026. The Cryla Claims are without known mineral reserves and there is no current exploratory work being performed.

During the year-ended June 30, 2022, the Company entered into an option agreement with Nevada Select to purchase the Bald Peak mining claims in the State of Nevada and California for a total consideration of $300,000. Payments under the agreement will be based on achieving certain events over time. Upon signing the agreement Paramount made a payment to Nevada Select of $20,000. During the year-ended June 30, 2026, the Company made a payment under the agreement of $50,000. The Bald Peak Claims are without known mineral reserves.

Seabridge holds an NPI put option in which during the 30-day period immediately following the day that the Company has delivered notice to Seabridge that a positive production decision has been made and construction financing has been secured with respect to the Grassy Mountain Project. Seabridge may cause the Company to purchase the NPI for CDN$10,000,000. If Seabridge exercises the right to cause the Company to purchase the NPI, the Company would likely need to seek additional equity or other financing to fund the purchase, which financing may not be available to the Company on favorable terms or at all.

The Company is obligated to reimburse the State of Oregon for costs incurred by the State in connection with the permitting of the Grassy Mountain Project. The amount and timing of such costs are dependent on the permitting activities undertaken by the State.

Note 15. Subsequent Events

Subsequent to June 30, 2026, the Company sold 91,000 shares on the ATM for net proceeds of $128,130.
