NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Three and Nine Months Ended March 31, 2026 and 2025
(Expressed in US dollars – Unaudited)
1. GENERAL INFORMATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS
International Tower Hill Mines Ltd. (“ITH” or the “Company”) is incorporated under the laws of British Columbia, Canada. The Company’s head office address is 1570 – 200 Burrard Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.
International Tower Hill Mines Ltd. consists of ITH and its wholly-owned subsidiaries Tower Hill Mines, Inc. (“TH Alaska”) (an Alaska corporation), Tower Hill Mines (US) LLC (“TH US”) (a Colorado limited liability company), and Livengood Placers, Inc. (“LPI”) (a Nevada corporation). The Company is in the business of acquiring, exploring and evaluating mineral properties, and either joint venturing or developing these properties further or disposing of them when the evaluation is completed. At March 31, 2026, the Company has a 100% interest in its Livengood Gold Project in Alaska, U.S.A (the “Livengood Gold Project”).
These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on a going-concern basis, which presumes the realization of assets and discharge of liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future.
The Company has no revenue generating operations from which it can internally generate funds. To date, the Company’s ongoing operations have been predominantly financed through the sale of its equity securities by way of public offerings, private placements and the subsequent exercise of share purchase and broker warrants issued in connection with such private placements. There are currently no warrants outstanding.
As at March 31, 2026, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $64,689,792 compared to $1,353,333 at December 31, 2025. As at May 7, 2026, management believes that the Company has sufficient financial resources to maintain its operations for the next twelve months.
2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 as filed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. In the opinion of the Company’s management, these financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position at March 31, 2026 and the results of its operations for the three months then ended. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2026.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. These judgments, estimates and assumptions are continuously evaluated and are based on management’s experience and knowledge of the relevant facts and circumstances. While management believes the estimates to be reasonable, actual results could differ from those estimates and could impact future results of operations and cash flows.
On May 7, 2026, the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) approved these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements.
All currency amounts are stated in U.S. dollars unless noted otherwise. References to C$ refer to Canadian currency.
Basis of consolidation
These condensed consolidated interim financial statements include the accounts of ITH and its wholly-owned subsidiaries TH Alaska, TH US, and LPI. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

3. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments.
Financial instruments measured at fair value are classified into one of three levels in the fair value hierarchy according to the significance of the inputs used in making the measurement. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
There were no financial instruments measured at fair value.

Livengood Gold Project Property
The Livengood property is located in the Tintina gold belt approximately 70 miles (113 kilometers) northwest of Fairbanks, Alaska. The property consists of land leased from the Alaska Mental Health Trust, a number of smaller private mineral leases, Alaska state mining claims purchased or located by the Company and patented ground held by the Company.

Details of the leases are as follows:
Title to mineral properties
The acquisition of title to mineral properties is a detailed and time-consuming process. The Company has taken steps to verify title to all mineral properties in which it has an interest. Although the Company has taken reasonable precautions to ensure that legal title to its properties is properly recorded in the name of the Company, there can be no assurance that such title will ultimately be secured.

The essential elements of the Stock Option Plan provide that the aggregate number of common shares of the Company that may be issued pursuant to options granted under the Stock Option Plan and any other share-based compensation arrangements may not exceed 10% of the number of issued shares of the Company at the time of the granting of options. Options granted under the Stock Option Plan will have a maximum term of ten years. The exercise price of options granted under the Stock Option Plan shall be fixed in compliance with the applicable provisions of the Toronto Stock Exchange (“TSX”) Company Manual in force at the time of grant and, in any event, shall not be less than the closing price of the Company’s common shares on the TSX on the trading day immediately preceding the day on which the option is granted, or such other price as may be agreed to by the Company and accepted by the TSX.

Deferred Share Unit Incentive Plan
On April 4, 2017, the Company adopted a Deferred Share Unit Plan (the “DSU Plan”). The DSU Plan was approved by the Company’s shareholders on May 24, 2017 and reapproved by the Company’s shareholders on May 27, 2020, May 25, 2021, and May 29, 2024.

During the three months ended March 31, 2026, in accordance with the DSU Plan, the Company granted a total of 41,503 DSUs to three members of the Board. The DSUs granted during the three months ended March 31, 2026 had a grant date fair value (defined as the weighted average of the prices at which the common shares traded on the exchange with the most volume for the five trading days immediately preceding the grant) of C$3.44 per DSU, representing C$142,770 in the aggregate.
During the year ended December 31, 2025, in accordance with the DSU Plan, the Company granted each of the members of the Board (other than those directors nominated for election by Paulson & Co. Inc.) 66,400 DSUs for a total of 332,000 DSUs with a grant date fair value (defined as the weighted average of the prices at which the common shares traded on the exchange with the most volume for the five trading days immediately preceding the grant) of C$1.25 per DSU, representing C$83,000 per director or C$415,000 in the aggregate.
Each DSU entitles the holder to receive one common share of the Company’s stock without the payment of any consideration. The DSUs vest immediately upon being granted, but the common shares underlying the DSUs are not deliverable to the grantee until the grantee is no longer serving on the Board.
DSUs outstanding as at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 are as follows:

8. COMMITMENTS
The following table discloses the Company’s contractual obligations as of March 31, 2026, including future anticipated mineral property payments. Under the terms of the Company’s mineral property purchase agreements, mineral leases and unpatented mineral claims, the Company is required to make certain scheduled acquisition payments, incur certain levels of expenditures, make lease or advance royalty payments, make payments to government authorities and incur assessment work expenditures (as summarized in the table below) in order to maintain and preserve the Company’s interests in the related mineral properties. If the Company is unable or unwilling to make any such payments or incur any such expenditure, it is likely that the Company would lose or forfeit its rights to acquire or hold the related mineral properties. The following table assumes that the Company retains the rights to all of its current mineral properties, but does not exercise any lease purchase or royalty buyout options:

Current Business Activities
General
International Tower Hill Mines Ltd. (“ITH” or the “Company”) consists of ITH and its wholly-owned subsidiaries Tower Hill Mines, Inc. (“TH Alaska”) (an Alaska corporation), Tower Hill Mines (US) LLC (“TH US”) (a Colorado limited liability company), and Livengood Placers, Inc. (“LPI”) (a Nevada corporation). The Company is in the business of acquiring, exploring and evaluating mineral properties, and either joint venturing or developing these properties further or disposing of them when the evaluation is completed. The Company currently holds or has the right to acquire interests in a development stage project in Alaska referred to as the “Livengood Gold Project” or the “Project”. The Company has not yet begun extraction of mineralization from the deposit or reached commercial production. The Company has a 100% interest in the Livengood Gold Project, which as of December 31, 2025, has proven and probable reserves of 430.1 million tonnes at an average grade of 0.65 g/tonne (9.0 million ounces) based on a gold price of $1,680 per ounce and a measured and indicated mineral resource, exclusive of mineral reserves, of 274.51 million tonnes at an average grade of 0.52 g/tonne (4.62 million ounces), based on a gold price of $1,650 per ounce, both as reported in the Technical Report Summary attached as Exhibit 96.1 to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the SEC on October 17, 2023. A more complete description of the Livengood Gold Project, including detailed presentation of resources and reserves, is set forth in Part I, Item 2. Properties of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 filed with the SEC on March 11, 2026.
Recent Developments
Livengood Gold Project
On January 27, 2026, the Company completed a public offering (the “Public Offering”) of 33,672,000 Common Shares, which included 4,392,000 Common Shares issued pursuant to the full exercise by the underwriters of their option to purchase additional Common Shares in connection with the Public Offering. The Public Offering was priced at a price to the public of $2.22 per Common Share, resulting in gross proceeds of approximately $74.8 million to the Company, before deducting underwriting discounts and estimated offering expenses. Concurrent with the closing of the Public Offering, the Company closed a US$40 million private placement (the “Concurrent Private Placement”) of 18,018,018 Common Shares to affiliates of Paulson, a related party of the Company, at the same offering price, resulting in total gross proceeds from the Public Offering and the Concurrent Private Placement to the Company of approximately $114.8 million. On January 29, 2026, affiliates of Paulson subscribed for an additional 1,501,982 Common Shares as part of the Concurrent Private Placement at the same offering price for additional proceeds of approximately US$3.3 million to the Company, representing a proportional increase to Paulson’s investment to account for the upsize in the Public Offering and exercise of the corresponding underwriters’ option.
The Company expects to use the net proceeds of the Offering and the Concurrent Private Placement to fund the exploration and development of the Livengood Gold Project, including drilling, metallurgical studies, feasibility studies, technical studies, baseline environmental studies, detailed engineering in support of permitting, permitting, legal support, community engagement, mineral lease and land payments, acquisitions and general corporate purposes.
The 2026 work program will include obtaining metallurgical samples by core drilling, metallurgical test work, initiating feasibility studies, and advancing ongoing baseline environmental data collection and community engagement. This 2026 work program is anticipated to cost $20-25 million.

Basic and diluted net loss per common share
Three Months Ended March 31, 2026 compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2025
The Company had net income of $2,274,143 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to a net loss of $669,068 for the three months ended March 31, 2025.
Mineral property expenditures were $254,108 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $148,487 for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase of $105,621 was primarily due to increased activity on the Livengood Gold Project of $53,242 and increased expenses for land-related legal of $48,682 and land claim fees of $3,697.
Professional fees were $129,535 and $32,242 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and March 31, 2025, respectively. The increase of $97,293 is due primarily to increased fees for legal of $49,926, recruiting of $25,110, and timing variances for accounting and auditing services of $22,257.
Excluding share-based costs of $20,419 and $14,265 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and March 31, 2025, respectively, wages and benefits were $259,060 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to $189,558 for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase of $69,502 was primarily due to the Chief Executive Officer salary returning to 100% reflecting the effort needed to advance the Livengood Gold Project through feasibility study and permitting for $50,305 and timing of payroll benefits for $19,197.
Excluding share-based costs of $111,440 and $48,297 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and March 31, 2025, respectively, consulting fees were $56,448 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to $61,747 for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease of $5,299 was primarily due to a decrease in services provided.
Regulatory fees were $117,246 and $61,731 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and March 31, 2026, respectively for an increase of $55,515. A higher market capitalization resulted in a $29,571 increase for TSX sustaining fees and a $25,944 increase for regulatory filings fees.
Insurance costs were $34,744 and $47,011 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and March 31, 2025, respectively. The decrease of $12,267 is primarily due to an agent change.
Excluding share-based payments, all other operating expense categories reflected only moderate changes period over period.
Share - based payment charges
Share-based payment charges for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 were allocated as follows:
Expense category:
Consulting
111,440
48,297
1,459
1,019
20,419
14,265
133,318
Share-based payment charges were $133,318 during the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to $63,581 during the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase of $69,737 was mainly the result of equity compensation issued or granted to certain directors of the Company on February 9, 2026, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025.
17
Other items amounted to total other income of $3,318,772 during the three-month period ended March 31, 2026 compared to total other expense of $6,813 during the three-month period ended March 31, 2025. As a result of the impact of exchange rates on certain of the Company’s U.S. dollar cash balances, the Company had a foreign exchange gain of $2,683,173 during the three-month period ended March 31, 2026, compared to a loss of $18,107 during the three-month period ended March 31, 2025. The average exchange rate during the three-month period ended March 31, 2026 was C$1 to $0.7290, compared to C$1 to $0.6968 during the three-month period ended March 31, 2025. Interest income was $635,599 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2026, compared to $11,294 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2025. The increase of $624,305 was primarily due to the net proceeds of the Public Offering and the Concurrent Private Placement being invested in short-term certificates of deposit.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company has no revenue generating operations from which it can internally generate funds. To date, the Company has predominantly financed its ongoing operations through the sale of its equity securities by way of public offerings and private placements and the subsequent exercise of share purchase and broker warrants and options issued in connection with such private placements.
As at March 31, 2026, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $64,689,792 compared to $1,353,333 at December 31, 2025. The increase of approximately $63.3 million resulted mainly from net financing activities of $114.0 million and stock option exercises of $0.3 million partially offset by short-term investments of $50.0 million and operating activities of $1.8 million.
Financing activities during the three-month period ended March 31, 2026 included a public offering pursuant to which the Company issued 33,672,000 common shares of the Company for aggregate gross proceeds, before underwriting expenses and expenses of the offering, of approximately $74.75 million. In connection with the public offering, the Company completed a non-brokered private placement in two tranches pursuant to which it issued an aggregate of 19,520,000 common shares of the Company to an existing major shareholder of the Company, for total proceeds of approximately $43.3 million. Exercise of stock options provided proceeds of $267,795 were received on the issuance of 560,000 common shares and related reallocation of contributed surplus of $128,189.
Financing activities during the three-month period ended March 31, 2025 included the Private Placement pursuant to which the Company issued 8,192,031 common shares of the Company to existing major shareholders to raise gross proceeds of approximately $3.9 million.
Investing activities during the three-month period ended March 31, 2026 comprised solely the transfer of $50.0 million cash to one short-term bank certificate of deposit.
The Company had no cash flows from investing activities during the three-month period ended March 31, 2025.
As at March 31, 2026, the Company had working capital of $114,953,122 compared to working capital of $1,015,182 at December 31, 2025. The Company expects that it will operate at a loss for the foreseeable future, but believes the current cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient for it to complete its anticipated 2026 work plan and satisfy its currently anticipated general and administrative costs, through the 2026 fiscal year.
There is no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain the additional financing required to further advance the Project on acceptable terms, if at all. In addition, any significant delays in the issuance of required permits for the ongoing work or the development of the Livengood Gold Project, or unexpected results in connection with the ongoing work or the development of the Livengood Gold Project, could result in the Company being required to raise additional funds to advance the Project.
Despite the Company’s success to date in raising significant equity financing to fund its operations, there is significant uncertainty that the Company will be able to secure any additional financing in the future. See “Risk Factors – We will require additional financing to fund exploration and, if warranted, development and production. Failure to obtain additional financing could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operation and could cast uncertainty on our ability to continue as a going concern” included in Part I, Item 1A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
Other than cash held by its subsidiaries for their immediate operating needs in the United States, all of the Company’s cash reserves are on deposit with a major Canadian chartered bank. The Company does not believe that the credit, liquidity or market risks with respect thereto have increased as a result of current market conditions.

Critical Accounting Estimates
For a discussion of the accounting judgments and estimates that the Company’s management has identified as critical in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements, please see “Critical Accounting Estimates” under Part II. Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. There have been no significant changes in the Company’s critical accounting estimates during the three months ended March 31, 2026.
Environmental Regulations
The operations of the Company may in the future be affected from time to time in varying degrees by changes in environmental regulations, including those for future removal and site restoration costs. Both the likelihood of new regulations and their overall effect upon the Company vary greatly and are not predictable. The Company’s policy is to meet or, if possible, surpass standards set by relevant legislation by application of technically proven and economically feasible measures.
Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations for U.S. Holders
The Company believes that it has been a “passive foreign investment company” (“PFIC”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes in recent years and expects to continue to be a PFIC in the future. Current and prospective U.S. shareholders should consult their tax advisors as to the tax consequences of PFIC classification and the U.S. federal tax treatment of PFICs. Additional information on this matter is included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, under Part II. Item 5. “Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities - Certain U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations for U.S. Holders.”
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Not applicable.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of March 31, 2026, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)). Based on the evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of March 31, 2026, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted to the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Exchange Act: (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in applicable rules and forms and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, in a manner that allows for timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
The effectiveness of our or any system of disclosure controls and procedures, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance that the objectives of the system will be met and is subject to certain limitations, including the exercise of judgement in designing, implementing and evaluating controls and procedures and the assumptions used in identifying the likelihood of future events.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2026 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
There have been no material changes to the risk factors previously disclosed in Part I, Item 1A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 under the heading “Risk Factors.”
ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
ITEM 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES
ITEM 4. MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES
Pursuant to Section 1503(a) of the Dodd-Frank Act, issuers that are operators, or that have a subsidiary that is an operator, of a coal or other mine in the United States are required to disclose specified information about mine health and safety in their periodic reports. These reporting requirements are based on the safety and health requirements applicable to mines under the Federal Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977 (the “Mine Act”) which is administered by the U.S. Department of Labor’s Mine Safety and Health Administration (“MSHA”). During the three-month period ended March 31, 2026, the Company and its subsidiaries were not subject to regulation by MSHA under the Mine Act and thus no disclosure is required under Section 1503(a) of the Dodd-Frank Act.
ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION
During the three months ended March 31, 2026, no director or officer of the Company adopted or terminated a Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement or non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement, as each term is defined in Item 408(a) of Regulation S-K.
