  1. Company Overview

Hycroft Mining Holding Corporation and its subsidiaries (collectively, “Hycroft,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” “our,” “it,” or “HYMC”) is a U.S.-based gold and silver company dedicated to the safe, environmentally responsible, and cost-effective exploration and development of the Hycroft Mine, located in the state of Nevada.

Our focus is to transition the project to the next phase of operations by processing sulfide mineralization. With the recent high-grade silver discoveries at Brimstone and Vortex, the Company is also engaged in a robust drill program designed to expand the two high-grade silver systems and evaluating underground studies for a potential decline and ultimate mining methods for Brimstone and Vortex. The Company is also completing trade-off studies between pressure oxidation (“POX”) and roasting process alternatives.

In June 2026, the Company, along with its third-party consultants, filed the Hycroft Mine Project S‑K 1300 Technical Report Summary and Initial Assessment with Economic Analysis, Nevada, USA with an effective date of May 14, 2026 the (“May 2026 Hycroft TRS”). The May 2026 Hycroft TRS provides an updated initial assessment with an economic analysis based on a conventional open pit mining operation utilizing a processing approach that includes heap leaching for oxide material and milling with pressure oxidation for sulfide mineralization, with transitional material directed based on economics to either process stream.

  1. Summary of significant accounting policies

Basis of presentation

These Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, these Financial Statements do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a comprehensive presentation of financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. These Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025 (the “2025 Audited Financial Statements”), filed as a part of the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 3, 2026. The Company continues to follow the accounting policies set forth in the 2025 Audited Financial Statements, with updates discussed below. In the opinion of management, the accompanying Financial Statements include all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s interim financial position, operating results, and cash flows for the periods presented.

Use of estimates

The preparation of the Financial Statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in these Financial Statements and accompanying notes. The more significant areas requiring the use of management estimates and assumptions relate to the useful life of long-lived assets; future mining and processing plans; environmental reclamation and closure costs and timing; and estimates of fair value for long-lived assets, assets held-for-sale, and financial instruments. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and other assumptions, including drilling and assay data and the May 2026 Hycroft TRS that are believed to be reasonable at the time the estimate is made. Actual results may differ from amounts estimated in these Financial Statements, and such differences could be material. Accordingly, amounts presented in these Financial Statements may not be indicative of results that may be expected for future periods.

Reclassification of prior year presentation

Certain prior period amounts have been combined for consistency with the current year presentation. These line items were combined to simplify the financial statement presentation, enhancing clarity without altering the total amounts reported in the financial statements. The combination of line items had no effect on the totals reported in the statement of operations, financial position, cash flows or stockholders’ equity.

Impairment of long-lived assets

The Company’s long-lived assets consist of property, plant, and equipment. We review and evaluate our long-lived assets for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the related carrying amounts may not be recoverable. As of September 30, 2026, the Company completed its evaluation and determined that there were no triggering events.

  1. Fair value measurements

Recurring fair value measurements

The following table sets forth by level within the fair value hierarchy, the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis (in thousands):

HierarchyLevelSeptember 30,2026December 31,2025
Equity investment securities (1)1$—$776

(1) The value of equity investment securities was determined using the closing price of the publicly traded Canadian gold mining company on the last day of the respective periods as quoted on the TSX Venture Exchange. See Note 4 – Equity investment securitiesfor additional information.

The carrying amounts of Cash and cash equivalents, Restricted cash, Receivables, Accounts payable, accrued expenses, and other liabilities approximate fair value due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. There is negligible credit risk associated with these instruments.

  1. Income taxes

The Company’s anticipated annual tax rate is impacted primarily by the amount of taxable income associated with each jurisdiction in which its income is subject to income tax and permanent differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and tax basis of assets and liabilities. Deferredtax assets and liabilities are measured using 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 Company incurrednil net income tax expense or benefit for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025. The effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025 wasnil. The effective tax rate differed from the statutory rate during each period primarily due to changes in the valuation allowance established to offset net deferred tax assets.

Legal proceedings

Assad v. Sprott, et al.

On September 23, 2026, George Assad, a purported stockholder of Hycroft Mining Holding Corporation (the “Company”), filed a verified stockholder class action and derivative complaint in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (“Delaware Chancery Court”), captioned Assad v. Sprott, et al., C.A. No. 2026-1226-KSJM. The complaint names as defendants Eric Sprott, certain entities affiliated or alleged to be affiliated with Mr. Sprott, certain current and former directors of the Company, and certain executive officers of the Company. The Company is named as a nominal defendant.

The complaint makes allegations, among other things, regarding Mr. Sprott’s acquisition of a control position in the Company through his participation in certain equity financings completed by the Company during 2025. Based on these allegations, the complaint asserts direct claims under Delaware law against certain current and former directors and officers of the Company, as well as derivative claims on behalf of the Company against Mr. Sprott, certain of his affiliates and certain directors, relating to the financings, certain bylaw amendments and equity awards granted in 2025. The complaint seeks, among other relief, rescission of, or rescissory damages with respect to, certain shares and warrants issued to Mr. Sprott and his affiliates and certain equity awards, disgorgement, compensatory damages, invalidation of the bylaw amendment, and related declaratory and injunctive relief.

The Company intends to vigorously defend itself in this matter; however, the Company cannot predict the outcome or impact. The litigation is at an early stage and, as a result, the Company is unable to reasonably estimate the possible loss or range of loss, if any, associated with this matter.

Warrantholder Action

As previously disclosed, the Company has been named as a defendant inthree pro se individual and/or putative class/derivative actions in the Delaware Chancery Court that assert claims for, inter alia, breach of contract, declaratory judgment, equitable fraud and fiduciary breaches (againsttwo company officers) arising from or relating to Warrants and/or shares purportedly held by the plaintiffs. In various forms, they allege that the Company or its predecessor entities breached the Warrant Agreement, dated October 22, 2015, and/or related Amendment Agreement, dated February 26, 2020. Among other things, the plaintiffs allege, by or on behalf of Warrant holders, that the Company or its predecessor(s) breached these agreements by failing to make proper “Mechanical Adjustments” to the Warrants upon the occurrence of certain business transactions and events, including the Recapitalization Transaction. During the quarter ended September 30, 2026, the Company filed responsive briefs to its previously filed motions to dismiss in these actions. The motions to dismiss are pending as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

The Company expenses legal fees and other costs associated with legal proceedings as incurred. The Company assessed, in conjunction with its legal counsel, and determined that a loss was not probable. Litigation accruals are recorded when, and if, it is determined that a loss related matter is both probable and reasonably estimable. Material loss contingencies that are reasonably possible of occurrence, if any, are subject to disclosure. No losses have been recorded during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, with respect to litigation or loss contingencies.

Insurance

The Company maintains insurance coverage for various operational, management, and business risks. The Company records accruals for contingencies related to its insurance policies when it is probable that a liability has been incurred, and the amount can be reasonably estimated. These accruals are adjusted periodically as assessments change, or additional information becomes available. Insurance losses for claims filed and claims incurred but not reported are accrued based upon estimates of the aggregate liability for uninsured claims using historical loss development factors and actuarial assumptions followed in the insurance industry.

Sprott Royalty

Pursuant to the Royalty Agreement with Sprott Private Resource Lending II (CO) Inc., in which the Company received cash consideration in the amount of $30.0 million, the Company granted a perpetual royalty equal to 1.5% of the net smelter returns from the Hycroft Mine, payable monthly (“Sprott Royalty Agreement”). The royalty is accounted for as a deferred gain liability. Net smelter returns for any given month are calculated as Monthly Production multiplied by the Monthly Average

Gold Price and the Monthly Average Silver Price, minus Allowable Deductions, as such terms are defined in the Sprott Royalty Agreement. The Company is required to remit royalty payments to the payee free and clear and without any present or future deduction, withholding, charge or levy on account of taxes, except Excluded Taxes as such term is defined in the Sprott Royalty Agreement. Future royalty payments are contingent upon future production, commodity prices, and certain refining costs.
