*"2026 was always going to be a catalyst-rich year, and the opening months have not disappointed. We delivered the updated feasibility study at South Railroad, completed the PEA for the Camino Rojo underground project, secured the final permits for the open-pit expansion, delivered exciting exploration results in Canada, and generated strong production start from both our sites, all representing meaningful milestones across our portfolio. We are proud of our team in all three nations who contributed to all these successes giving us real confidence for the remainder of 2026."<br>-* Jason Simpson, President and Chief Executive Officer, Orla Mining

**Musselwhite Operations**

During the quarter, Musselwhite mined 333,495 tonnes of ore and processed 332,822 tonnes at a mill head grade of 6.29 g/t gold. Gold recovery was 95.91% resulting in gold production of 62,985 ounces.

Musselwhite completed 3,437 metres of lateral development. 367 metres of the completed lateral development was attributed to the advance of the 1080 exploration drift. The 1080 exploration drift is being used to provide platforms for underground diamond drilling in the PQ Extensions area with the objective to continue growing reserves and resources in the extension of the Mine Trend. During the quarter, 2,300 metres of reserve, 9,200 metres of resource, 5,300 deep directional, and 2,700 metres of brownfields drilling were completed. All drilling programs continue to produce encouraging results.

**Camino Rojo Operations**

During the quarter, Camino Rojo mined over 2,024,832 million tonnes of ore and nearly 2,326,082 million tonnes of waste, for an implied strip ratio of 1.15. A total of 1,828,000 million tonnes of ore were stacked at an average grade of 0.59 g/t gold equating to an average daily stacking rate of about 20.3 thousand tonnes.

As noted in the March 18, 2026, press release, the Company received the environmental permit (Manifestación de Impacto Ambiental, "MIA") from Mexico's Secretariat of Environment and Natural Resources ("SEMARNAT") for its Camino Rojo Mine in Zacatecas, Mexico ("Camino Rojo"). With this approval, Orla now has all the permits necessary, including the Change of Land Use approval, to mine the remainder of the oxide open-pit, including the layback area.

**Liquidity Position**

At March 31, 2026, Orla's cash and debt positions were $427.3 million and $331.3 million, respectively resulting in a net cash position of $96.0 million<sup>1</sup>.

**Non-GAAP Measures**

*The Company has included certain performance measures in this news release which are not specified, defined, or determined under generally accepted accounting principles (in the Company's case, International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS")). These are common performance measures in the gold mining industry, but because they do not have any mandated standardized definitions, they may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. Accordingly, the Company uses such measures to provide additional information and you should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). In this section, all currency figures in tables are in millions.*

***Net Cash (Debt)***

*Net cash (debt) is calculated as cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments less total debt at the end of the reporting period. This measure is used by management to measure the Company's debt leverage. The Company believes that net cash is useful in evaluating the Company's leverage and is also a key metric in determining the cost of debt.*
