Rhea-AI Filing Summary

DynaResource, Inc. files its annual report describing a transition to Production Stage status at the San Jose de Gracia mine after its first Technical Report Summary of mineral reserves, while also disclosing substantial risks and liquidity pressure.

In 2025 the company sold 20,848 ounces of gold contained in concentrate from the SJG mine and used hedging under its Offtake Agreement, which reduced reported results by about $3.7 million. As of December 31, 2025, cash was about $4.2 million against an accumulated deficit of $65.4 million and debt of roughly $15 million, leading auditors to raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.

Positive

  • Transition to Production Stage: Filing of a Technical Report Summary under S‑K 1300 with the first declaration of mineral reserves at San Jose de Gracia, supporting reclassification from Exploration Stage to Production Stage and enabling capitalization of development costs.

Negative

  • Going concern uncertainty: With approximately $4.2 million in cash, an accumulated deficit of about $65.4 million, and roughly $15 million of debt at December 31, 2025, auditors expressed substantial doubt about the company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Insights

Production upgrade is offset by liquidity stress and hedging losses.

DynaResource has formally moved from Exploration Stage to Production Stage at San Jose de Gracia after filing a Technical Report Summary with declared reserves. That supports a more conventional mine accounting framework, including capitalizing development and starting depreciation on mine assets.

The filing also highlights meaningful hedging impacts: one fixed-price hedge at $2,495 per ounce on 9,000 ounces and a 6,000‑ounce min/max collar contributed about $3.7 million in negative effects for 2025. These programs stabilized pricing but constrained participation in higher spot gold.

Balance sheet strain is clear: year-end cash of about $4.2 million, an accumulated deficit of $65.4 million and approximately $15 million of debt prompted a going‑concern warning. Future disclosures on refinancing, additional capital raises and the performance of new 2026 hedging collars will be key to understanding how long the mine can sustain current operations.

Technical Report Summary financial
"On May 20, 2025, the Company filed with the SEC a Technical Report Summary ("TRS”) for the SJG mine"
A technical report summary is a concise overview of detailed research or analysis about a particular subject, highlighting key findings and important information. For investors, it provides a quick understanding of complex data or technical details, helping them make informed decisions without needing to review the entire report. Think of it as a brief map that points out the most essential parts of a larger, detailed document.
Production Stage issuer financial
"The Company is currently classified as a Production Stage issuer under S-K 1300."
Offtake Agreement financial
"Pursuant to the terms of the Company’s Gold Concentrate Purchase Agreement (as amended, the “Offtake Agreement”)"
A contract in which a buyer commits to purchase a set portion or percentage of a producer’s future output—such as minerals, energy, agricultural goods, or manufactured products—often over a multi‑year period. It matters to investors because it creates predictable sales and cash flow, reduces the risk of unsold inventory, and can make projects easier to finance; think of it like pre‑selling future harvests or securing long‑term customers before production begins.
min/max pricing structure financial
"Under this min/max pricing structure, the Company hedged the sales price of 6,000 troy ounces of gold"
going concern financial
"There is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern."
A going concern is a business that is expected to continue its operations and meet its obligations for the foreseeable future, rather than shutting down or selling off assets. This assumption matters to investors because it indicates stability and ongoing profitability, making the business a more reliable investment. Think of it as believing a restaurant will stay open and serve customers, rather than closing down suddenly.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This Annual Report on Form 10-K contains numerous forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) relating to our mining business, including resource estimates, exploration efforts, results and expenditures, development initiatives at the San Jose de Gracia mine (the “SJG mine”), estimated production and capacity, costs, capital expenditures, expenses, recoveries, gold prices, sufficiency of assets, ability to discharge liabilities, liquidity management, financing needs, environmental compliance expenditures, environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) and human capital management initiatives, risk management strategies, including capital resources and use, cash flow maximization, mine life and other strategic initiatives. Such forward-looking statements are identified by the use of words such as “believes,” “intends,” “expects,” “hopes,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “plan,” “projected,” “contemplates,” “anticipates” or similar words and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause our actual results, performance, or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance, or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking information in this Annual Report on Form 10-K includes, but is not limited to, statements regarding the beliefs, plans, expectations or intentions of management, as of the date of this presentation, regarding: (i) the ability of DynaResource, Inc. (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries to develop its exploration assets via operational cash flow from gold concentrate production; and (ii) the Company’s plans and expectations regarding its proposed 2026 exploration program for the SJG mine. Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking information are reasonable, there can be no assurance that these expectations and assumptions will prove to be correct. Such forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results, performance or developments to differ materially from those contained in the statements including, without limitation, risks related to: (1) fluctuations in commodity pricing, specifically gold and silver; (2) the Company’s ability to retain or engage qualified employees or contractors necessary to conduct mill operations at the SJG mine; (3) a decreased demand for gold, silver and other minerals; (4) unexpected difficulties with the milling and the extraction of minerals from the Company’s projects; (5) unexpected interruptions and problems encountered in the operation of the SJG mine; (6) factors that delay or cause difficulties in timing of shipments of concentrates by the Company; (7) potential negative financial impact from regulatory investigations, claims, lawsuits and other legal proceedings and challenges; (8) the possibility that the Company may not have sufficient capital to operate the SJG mine or facilitate the further exploration of the SJG mine; (9) inflationary pressures; (10) continued access to financing sources; (11) government orders that may require temporary suspension of operations or effects on our suppliers; (12) the effects of environmental and other governmental regulations and government shut-downs; (13) the risks inherent in the ownership or operation of or investment in mining properties or businesses in foreign countries; (14) our ability to raise additional financing necessary to conduct our business, make payments or refinance our debt; and (15) other factors beyond the Company’s control.

There is a significant risk that such forward-looking statements will not prove to be accurate. No assurance can be given that any of the events anticipated by the forward-looking statements will occur or, if they do occur, what benefits the Company will obtain from them. Given the current state of the global financial markets, global commodity markets, especially the recent volatility in gold and silver prices and current economic conditions, any forward-looking statements or projections may be impacted significantly. Consequently, there is no representation by the Company that actual results achieved will be the same as those forecast. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. No forward-looking statement is a guarantee of future results. The Company disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

 

Recent Developments

On May 20, 2025, the Company filed with the SEC a Technical Report Summary ("TRS”) for the SJG mine prepared in accordance with the requirements of Regulation S-K 1300 (“S-K 1300”). The TRS includes the Company’s first declaration of mineral reserves and supports the transition from an Exploration Stage issuer to a Production Stage issuer.

This transition to Production Stage has resulted in certain changes in accounting treatment, including the prospective capitalization of development expenditures and the commencement of depreciation on applicable assets, as further described in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements. Management anticipates that these changes will result in increased capitalized costs and higher depreciation expense in future periods.

PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

History and Organization

DynaResource, Inc. (the "Company” or "DynaResource”) was organized on September 28, 1937, as a California corporation under the name of West Coast Mines, Inc. In 1998, the Company re-domiciled to Delaware and changed its name to DynaResource, Inc. The Company, including its subsidiaries, is in the business of acquiring, investing in, and developing precious metal properties, and the production and sale of precious metals.

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had one wholly owned subsidiary in the United States, DynaMéxico US Holding, LLC ("US Holding”) and four wholly owned subsidiaries in Mexico, DynaResource de México, S.A. de C.V. ("DynaMéxico”), Mineras de DynaResources S.A. de C.V. ("DynaMineras”), DynaResource Operaciones de San José de Gracia S.A. de C.V. ("DynaOperaciones”), and Minera de Alica S.A. de C.V. ("DynaAlica”).

Although the Company considers the four Mexican subsidiaries to be wholly owned, each has issued one qualifying share to a second shareholder as required under Mexican law, with such qualifying shares held by US Holding. DynaMéxico owns a portfolio of mining concessions that currently comprises its interest in the San José de Gracia mine ("SJG”) in northern Sinaloa State, México.

Product

The end use product resulting from the Company’s site-based processing activities at the SJG mine is in the form of gold-silver concentrate. Gold-silver concentrate, or simply concentrate, is raw precious metals materials that has been crushed and ground finely to a sand-like product where gangue (waste) and non-precious metals are removed or reduced, thus concentrating the precious metals component. Concentrate processed and produced from the SJG mine is transported and sold to a third-party for further processing.

During 2025, we reported the delivery and sale of 20,848 ounces (Oz) gold (subject to final settlements) contained in concentrate. All gold concentrate originated from the SJG mine. Gold concentrates are sold at a small discount, the payability adjustment, to the prevailing spot market price, based on the price per ounce of gold quoted at the London PM gold fix, with the actual net payable precious metals prices received depending on the sales contract. Concentrates are priced by the assay of the gold content in the concentrate deliveries and the final selling price and gold quantities are subject to final adjustments at the time of final purchase settlement.

Metals Prices

 

The results of the Company are substantially dependent upon the market prices of gold and silver, which are subject to significant volatility and fluctuate widely due to factors beyond the Company’s control. Pursuant to the terms of the Company’s Gold Concentrate Purchase Agreement (as amended, the “Offtake Agreement”), the Company has entered into commodity pricing arrangements from time to time to manage exposure to fluctuations in gold and silver prices.

 

In September 2024, the Company entered into a commodity pricing arrangement under the Offtake Agreement to protect the selling price of a portion of its anticipated gold and silver production. Under this arrangement, approximately 75% of anticipated production, or 9,000 ounces, was hedged at a fixed price of $2,495 per ounce. The impact of this hedging activity was approximately negative $1.1 million in fiscal 2025, and the Company fulfilled its delivery obligations under this arrangement in March 2025.

 

In August 2025, the Company entered into an additional commodity pricing arrangement pursuant to the Offtake Agreement. Under this min/max pricing structure, the Company hedged the sales price of 6,000 troy ounces of gold, representing 1,000 ounces per month for the period from September 30, 2025 through February 27, 2026. This arrangement utilizes monthly expiring options that establish a minimum price of $3,200 per ounce (put strike) and a maximum price of $3,500 per ounce (call strike). The effect of this hedging activity was approximately negative $2.6 million in fiscal 2025.

 

In addition, during November 2025 and December 2025, the Company entered into two further commodity pricing arrangements pursuant to the Offtake Agreement, each structured as min/max option‑based collars, to hedge a portion of anticipated gold

4

production during periods extending into 2026. These arrangements were not effective during fiscal 2025 and accordingly had no impact on the Company’s results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2025.

Commodities

We purchase materials and supplies from third parties to conduct our business, including electricity, fuel, chemical reagents, explosives, steel and concrete. Prices for these commodities are volatile and can fluctuate due to conditions that are difficult to predict, including inflation, currency fluctuations, global competition for resources, consumer or industrial demand and other factors. For most of these commodities, we have existing alternate sources of supply or alternate sources of supply are readily available. We continuously monitor supply and cost trends for these items.

 

Production Stage

The Company is currently classified as a Production Stage issuer under S-K 1300. Prior to January 1, 2025, the Company was considered an Exploration Stage issuer, having engaged in mining, milling, and extraction activities without having established proven and probable mineral reserves.

Segment Information

 

The Company operates as one reportable segment, focused on the exploration, development, production and sale of gold and silver in Mexico.

General Government Regulations

México

In Mexico, we are subject to various governmental laws and regulations, including environmental regulations. Other than operating licenses for our mining and processing facilities and concessions granted under contracts with the host government, there are no third-party patents, licenses or franchises material to our business. The applicable laws and regulations applicable to us include but are not limited to:

Mineral Concession Rights. Exploration and exploitation of minerals in México may be carried out through Mexican companies incorporated under Mexican law by means of obtaining mining concessions. The Company’s mining concessions were granted by the Mexican government for a period of fifty years from the date of their recording in the Public Registry of Mining and are renewable for a further period of fifty years upon application within five years prior to the expiration of such concession in accordance with the Mining Act of México and its Regulations (Ley Minera y su Reglamento) (the “Mining Law”) and its regulations at their issuance. These mining concessions are subject to annual work requirements and payment of annual surface taxes which are assessed and levied on a semi-annual basis. Such concessions may be transferred or assigned by their holders, but such transfers or assignments must be registered with the Public Registry of Mining in order to be valid against third parties. The holder of a concession must pay semi-annual duties in January and July of each year on a per hectare basis and in accordance with the amounts provided by the Federal Fees Law. During the month of May of each year, the concessionaire must file the work assessment reports made on each concession or group of concessions for the preceding calendar year with the General Bureau of Mines. The Mining Law provide tables containing the minimum investment amounts that must be made on a concession. This amount is updated annually in accordance with the changes in the Consumer Price Index.

Surface Rights. In México, while mineral rights are administered by the federal government through federally issued mining concessions, Ejidos (communal owners of land recognized by the federal laws in México) control surface access rights to the land. An Ejido may sell or lease lands directly to a private entity. While the Company has agreements or is in the process of negotiating agreements with the Ejido that impact all of its projects in México, some of these agreements may be subject to renegotiation.

Mining Permits. The Secretariat of Environmental and Natural Resources, the Mexican Government environmental authority ("SEMARNAT"), is responsible for issuing environmental permits associated with mining. Three main permits required before construction can begin are: Environmental Impact Statement (known in México as Manifesto Impacto Ambiental), Land Use Change (known in México as Estudio Tecnico Justificativo Para Cambio de Uso de Suelo), and Risk Analysis (known in México as Análisis de Riesgo). A construction permit is required from the local municipality and an archaeological release letter must be obtained from the National Institute of Anthropology and History. An explosives permit is required from the ministry of defense before construction can begin. The Environmental Impact Statement is required to be prepared by a third-party contractor and submitted to SEMARNAT and must include a detailed analysis of climate, air quality, water, soil, vegetation, wildlife, cultural resources and socio-economic impacts. The Risk Analysis (which is included in the Environmental Impact Statement and submitted as one

5


Table of Contents

 

complete document) identifies potential environmental releases of hazardous substances and evaluates the risks in order to establish methods to prevent, respond to, and control environmental emergencies. The Land Use Change requires that an evaluation be made of the existing conditions of the land, including a plant and wildlife study, an evaluation of the current and proposed use of the land, impacts to naturally occurring resources, and an evaluation of reclamation/re-vegetation plans.

We believe we operate in compliance with all applicable governmental laws and regulations and the costs of compliance are paid for on an ongoing basis. Due to the nature of our mining permits, we have requirements for landscape restoration which are fulfilled on an ongoing basis. We are working under mining permits, which require a Forest Fund bond of approximately $134,487 Pesos and does not require, other than the replanting of like vegetation material, any reclamation work since we are mining underground. We maintain a greenhouse of approximately 10,000 trees and a full-time gardener to undertake rehabilitation work programs.

Customers

The Company sells its concentrates to the buyer who offers the best terms based upon price, treatment costs, refining costs, and other terms of payment. During the year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company sold gold-silver concentrates to one purchaser pursuant to an Advance Credit Line Facility (“ACL”) and a Revolving Credit Line Facility (the “RCL”) in accordance with the Offtake Agreement. As gold-silver concentrate can be sold through numerous gold and silver market traders worldwide, and the price paid to the Company under the ACL/RCL varies based on market conditions, the Company is effectively not economically dependent on a limited number of customers for the sale of its product.

Products and Raw Materials

Gold-silver concentrate is the only product we produce. Additionally, we have no major suppliers of raw materials as the ore we mine is the most important raw material we use. Supplementary supplies such as fuel and organic reagents are in ready supply from a number of vendors.

Competitive Business Conditions

We compete with many companies in the mining and mineral exploration and production industry, including large, established mining companies with substantial capabilities, personnel, and financial resources. There is a limited supply of desirable mineral lands available for claim-staking, lease, or acquisition in the United States, Canada, Mexico, and other areas where we may conduct our mining or exploration activities. We may be at a competitive disadvantage in acquiring mineral properties, since we compete with these entities, many of which have significantly greater financial resources and larger technical staff than we do. From time to time, specific properties or areas that would otherwise be attractive to us for exploration or acquisition may be unavailable due to their previous acquisition by other companies or our lack of financial resources.

Competition in the industry is not limited to the acquisition of mineral properties, but also extends to the technical expertise to find, advance, and operate such properties; the labor to operate the properties; and the capital for the purpose of funding such exploration and development. Many competitors not only explore for and mine precious and base metals but conduct refining and marketing operations on a world-wide basis. Such competition may result in our company not only being unable to acquire desired properties, but to recruit or retain qualified employees or to acquire the capital necessary to fund our operation and advance our properties. Our inability to compete with other companies for these resources could have a material adverse effect on our results of operation, financial condition and cash flows.

Human Capital Resources

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had approximately 238 employees in Mexico and 3 in the United States and Canada. All our employees based in the United States and Canada work in an executive, technical or administrative position, while our employees in Mexico include management, laborers, craftsmen, mining, geologist environmental specialists, information technologists, accountants and various other support roles. We also frequently engage independent contractors in connection with certain administrative matters and the exploration of our properties, such as drillers, geophysicists, geologists, and other specialty technical disciplines. For the United States and Canada, we also engage independent contractors for technical and professional expertise. None of our employees in México are covered by union contracts and the Company believes it has good relations with its employees.

As part of our fundamental need to attract, reward and retain talent, we regularly evaluate our compensation, benefits and employee wellness offerings. We believe that our compensation arrangements are competitive in the industry.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

An investment in our securities involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks described below and incorporated by reference herein before making an investment decision. Our business, prospects, financial condition, or operating results could be harmed by any of these risks, as well as other risks not currently known to us or that we currently consider immaterial. The trading price of our securities could decline due to any of these risks, and, as a result, you may lose all or part of your investment. Certain statements in “Risk Factors” are forward-looking statements. See “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”

Risks Related to Our Industry

Our results of operations, cash flows and operating costs are highly dependent upon the market prices of gold and silver and of key input commodities used in our business, which are volatile and beyond our control.

Gold and silver are actively traded commodities, and their prices are volatile. Gold and silver prices are affected by many factors beyond the Company’s control, including U.S. dollar strength or weakness, speculation, global currency values, global and regional demand and production, political and economic conditions and other factors. In addition, Exchange Traded Funds, which have substantially facilitated the ability of large and small investors to buy and sell precious metals, have become significant holders of gold and silver. Gold and silver prices are also affected by prevailing interest rates and returns on other asset classes, expectations of the future rate of inflation and governmental monetary decisions regarding central bank holdings.

Because we derive all of our revenues from sales of these metals, our results of operations and cash flows will fluctuate as the prices of these metals change. A period of significant and sustained lower prices would materially and adversely affect our results of operations and cash flows. In response to environments of lower metal prices and/or higher treatment and refining charges, we may have to revise our operating plans, including reducing operating costs and capital expenditures, terminating or suspending mining operations at one or more of our properties and discontinuing certain exploration and development plans. These types of initiatives may not sufficiently offset reductions in revenues, and we may incur losses associated with sustained lower metals prices and/or higher treatment and refining charges.

Operating costs at our mines are also affected by the price of input commodities, such as fuel, electricity, labor, chemical reagents, explosives, steel and concrete. Prices for these input commodities are volatile and can fluctuate due to conditions that are difficult to predict, including global competition for resources, inflation, currency fluctuations, consumer or industrial demand and other factors. An increase in the cost, or decrease in the availability, of input commodities, labor, or equipment, due to factors beyond the Company’s control may affect the timely conduct and cost of our operations and development projects. Continued volatility in the

7


Table of Contents

 

prices of commodities and other supplies we purchase could lead to higher costs, which would adversely affect results of operations and cash flows.

Volatility in metals prices may also impact the price of our outstanding securities.

Speculation in the market may result in short-term volatility in the prices of the metals we produce and result in significant changes in the price of our securities, which may not be reflective of our operating performance or financial results. The price of gold has fluctuated widely since the beginning of 2024 when the gold price was $2,062 to recently when the price of gold was over $4,300, an increase of 109%. There is no assurance the price of gold will not decline, no assurance it will stay the same and no assurance it will continue to increase in price. Continued volatility in the price of gold if it goes lower, could lead to lower revenues, which would adversely affect results of operations and cash flows.

Estimated mineral reserves and mineral resources are imprecise and depend upon subjective factors and may not be realized in actual production.

The mineral reserve and mineral resource figures presented in our public filings are estimates made by our technical personnel and independent mining consultants with whom we contract. Mineral reserve and mineral resource estimates are a function of geological and engineering analyses that require us to make assumptions about production costs, recoveries and the market prices of gold, silver, zinc and lead. While the Company believes that its mineral reserve and mineral resource estimates are developed using well-established practices and with appropriate controls, mineral reserve and mineral resource estimation is an imprecise and subjective process. The accuracy of these estimates is a function of the quality of available data and of engineering and geological interpretation, judgment and experience. Assumptions about gold and silver market prices are subject to great uncertainty as those prices fluctuate widely. Declines in the market prices of gold and silver may render mineral reserves and mineral resources containing relatively lower grades of mineralization uneconomic to exploit, and we may be required to reduce mineral reserve and mineral resource estimates, discontinue development or mining at one or more of our properties or write down assets as impaired. Should we encounter mineralization or geologic formations at our mine or project that is different from those predicted, we may adjust our mineral reserve and mineral resource estimates and alter our mining plans. No assurances can be given that all mineral reserves will be mined, as mineralized material that may qualify as reserves under applicable standards by virtue of being economic to mine may not generate attractive enough returns to be included in our mine plans, due to factors such as the impact of the gold stream at San Jose de Gracia. As a result, we may elect not to mine portions of the mineralized material reported as reserves. In addition, no assurances can be given that any mineral resource estimate will ultimately be reclassified as proven or probable mineral reserves or that inferred resources will be upgraded to measured or indicated resources. Updates to our mining plans or new or updated technical or geological information may also impact anticipated metal recovery rates. Any of these adjustments may adversely affect actual operating performance, production, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

A significant delay or disruption in sales of concentrates as a result of the unexpected disruption in services provided by customer(s) or other third parties could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

We rely on customer(s) to purchase the gold and silver concentrate produced by our operations. Access to refiners and smelters on economic terms is critical to our customer(s) to sell our products to refiners and smelters and generate revenues. We believe our current contractual arrangement with our only customer is sufficient so that the loss of that customer would easily be replaced by others who we have sold to previously and would not significantly or materially impact our operations or our ability to generate revenues. Nevertheless, services provided by an end refiner or smelter may be disrupted by new or increased tariffs, duties or other cross-border trade barriers, shipping delays, the bankruptcy or insolvency of one or more refiners or smelters or the inability to agree on acceptable commercial or legal terms between our customer(s) and their refiners or smelters. Such an event or events may disrupt an existing relationship or result in the inability to create (or the necessity to terminate) a contractual relationships, which may leave us with limited, uneconomic or no access to customer(s) with access to refining or smelting services for short or long periods of time. Epidemics, pandemics or natural disasters may also impact customer(s) and refiners, smelters or other third parties with whom there are contractual arrangements or have an indirect effect on our ability to sell our gold and silver concentrates. We cannot ensure that alternative customer(s) that have contractual arrangements with refiners or smelters would be available, that they would offer comparable terms, or that we would not experience delays or disruptions in sales that would materially and adversely affect results of operations.

There are significant hazards associated with mining activities.

The mining business is subject to risks and hazards, including environmental hazards, industrial accidents, the encountering of unusual or unexpected geological formations, geotechnical failures, flooding, earthquakes and periodic interruptions due to inclement or hazardous weather conditions or machine failure. These occurrences could result in damage to, or destruction of,

8


Table of Contents

 

mineral properties or production facilities, personal injury or death, environmental damage, reduced production and delays in mining, asset write-downs, monetary losses and possible legal liability. The Company does not currently maintain insurance policies to protect against property loss and business interruption. Any liabilities that we incur for these risks and hazards could be significant and could adversely affect results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.

Competition in the mining industry is intense, and the Company has limited financial and personnel resources with which to compete.

In the mining industry, competition for desirable properties, investment capital, and human capital is intense. Numerous companies headquartered in the United States, Canada, and worldwide compete for properties and human capital on a global basis. The Company is a small participant in the mining industry due to its limited financial and human capital resources. The Company presently operates with a limited number of people, and it anticipates operating in the same manner going forward. The Company competes with other companies in its industry to hire qualified employees and consultants when needed to operate its mines successfully and to advance its exploration properties. The Company may be unable to attract the necessary human capital to fully explore, and if warranted, develop its properties and be unable to acquire other desirable properties. The Company believes that competition for acquiring mineral properties, as well as the competition to attract and retain qualified human capital, will continue to be intense in the future.

Risks Related to Our Operations

Our future growth will depend upon our ability to expand existing mines and develop and start-up new mines, either through exploration at our existing property or by acquisition of other mining companies or properties.

Because mines have limited lives based on proven and probable mineral reserves, our ability to achieve significant additional growth in revenues and cash flows will depend upon our success in further developing and expanding existing properties and the opportunistic acquisition or development and start-up of exploration projects or new mining properties, such as the acquisition of mining concessions from a subsidiary of Fresnillo plc that are located adjacent to the existing SJG mine.

Significant investment risks and operational costs are associated with exploration and development activities. These risks and costs may result in lower economic returns and may adversely affect our business.

Our ability to sustain or increase current production levels depends in part on successful exploration and development of new ore bodies and expansion of existing mining operations. Substantial expenditures are required to establish mineral reserves, to extract metals from ore and, in the case of new properties, to construct mining and processing facilities. Our plans include several significant projects to construct or upgrade mining and processing facilities at our existing mining operation including the mine life extension at San Jose de Gracia. These projects can take several months or years to complete, are complex and require significant capital expenditures, as demonstrated by the recently completed SK 1300 mineral resource report. These projects are subject to significant risks, any of which may have a material negative impact on returns on invested capital, operating costs or cash flows.

Mineral exploration involves many risks and is frequently unproductive. Even if mineral deposits are found, those deposits may be insufficient in quantity or quality to return a profit from production, or it may take a number of years until production is possible, during which time the economic viability of the project may change. Few properties that are explored are ultimately developed into producing mines. The commercial viability of a mineral deposit, once developed, depends on a number of factors, including: the particular attributes of the deposit, including size, grade and proximity to infrastructure; government regulations, including taxes, royalties and land tenure; land use; importing and exporting of minerals; environmental protection; mineral prices; and issuance and maintenance of necessary permits. Factors that affect adequacy of infrastructure include reliability of roads, bridges, power sources and water supply; unusual or infrequent weather phenomena; sabotage; and government or other interference in the maintenance or provision of such infrastructure. The exact effect of these factors cannot be accurately predicted, but the combination may result in not receiving an adequate return on invested capital.

In addition, exploration activities may have little or no relevant data upon which to base estimates of future operating costs and capital requirements. Exploration activities such as estimates of mineral resources and mineral reserves, metal recoveries and cash operating costs are to a large extent based upon the interpretation of geologic data obtained from a limited number of drill holes and other sampling techniques and feasibility studies. Estimates of operating costs are then derived based upon anticipated tonnage and grades of ore to be mined and processed, the configuration of the ore body, expected recovery rates of metals from the ore, comparable facility and equipment costs, anticipated climate conditions and other factors. As a result, actual operating costs and economic returns of any and all exploration projects may materially differ from the costs and returns estimated, and accordingly, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows may be negatively affected.

We may be affected by global supply chain disruptions.

We may face supply chain disruptions as a result of matters outside of our control or ability to mitigate, such as natural disasters, transportation disruptions, economic instability, sanctions or tariffs, geopolitical unrest, civil or international hostilities and global pandemics, among others. The ongoing conflicts in Europe and in the Middle East have resulted in losses of life, displacement of people, and political and economic disruptions on a global scale. Additionally, recent trade policy changes, including the tariffs imposed by the United States and retaliatory measures by trading partners, have resulted in disruptions to supply chains and increased costs to obtain necessary supplies. There may be unforeseen impacts from these events globally on commodity prices, liquidity and credit or supply chains, and we continue to monitor them closely.

We may be required to write down certain long-lived assets, due to metal prices, operational challenges or other factors. Such write-downs may adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

We review our long-lived assets for recoverability pursuant to the Financial Accounting Standard Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification Section 360. Under that standard, we review the recoverability of our long-lived assets, such as our mining properties, upon a triggering event. Such review involves estimating the future undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset. Impairment, measured by comparing an asset’s carrying value to its fair value, must be recognized when the carrying value of the asset exceeds these cash flows. We conduct a review of the financial performance of our mines in connection with the preparation of our financial statements for each reporting period and determine whether any triggering events are indicated.

If there are significant and sustained declines in relevant metal prices, or if we fail to control production and operating costs or realize the mineable ore reserves at our mining properties, we may terminate or suspend mining operations at one or more properties. These events could require a write-down of the carrying value of our assets. Any such actions would adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

We may record other types of charges in the future if we sell a property or asset for a price less than its carrying value or have to increase reclamation liabilities in connection with the closure and reclamation of a property. Any additional write-downs of mining properties or other assets could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

We operate in a foreign jurisdiction and are exposed to political and social risks associated with our foreign operations.

All of our revenue is generated by operations outside the United States, particularly Mexico. Exploration, development, production and closure activities in many countries are potentially subject to heightened political and social risks that are beyond our control and could result in increased costs, capacity constraints and potential disruptions to our business. These risks include the possible unilateral cancellation or forced renegotiation of contracts in which we, directly or indirectly, may have an interest, unfavorable changes in foreign laws and regulations, royalty and tax increases (including taxes associated with the import or export of goods), risks associated with the value-added tax (“VAT”) and income tax refund recovery and collection process, aggressive or punitive tax audits, policy-driven or punitive interference with or moratoriums on processing of permit applications or granting water or mineral concessions, erection of trade barriers, including tariffs and duties, claims by governmental entities or indigenous communities, changes to mining and related laws impacting current and future operations, expropriation or nationalization of property and other risks arising out of foreign sovereignty over areas in which our operations are conducted. In addition, recent amendments to mining, water and environmental laws in Mexico, and government actions under prior Mexican administrations intended to slow or halt the normal processing of permits and granting of water or mineral concessions, could impose additional restrictions on our ability to obtain and maintain mining and water rights and operate in Mexico, among other potentially adverse provisions. Our rights under local law may be less secure in countries where judicial systems are susceptible to manipulation and intimidation by government agencies, non-governmental organizations or civic groups.

Any of these developments could require us to curtail or terminate operations at our mines, incur significant costs to renegotiate contracts, meet newly-imposed environmental or other standards, pay greater royalties or higher prices for labor or services and recognize higher taxes, address aggressive or punitive tax audit assessments including through litigation, or experience significant delays or obstacles in the recovery of VAT or income tax refunds owed, which could materially and adversely affect financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Our operations outside the United States also expose us to economic and operational risks.

Our operations outside the United States also expose us to economic and operational risks. Local economic conditions, as well as epidemics, pandemics or natural disasters, can cause shortages of skilled workers and supplies, increase costs and adversely affect

the security of operations. In addition, higher incidences of criminal activity and violence in the area of some of our foreign operations, including drug cartel-related violence in Mexico, could adversely affect our ability to operate in an optimal fashion and may impose greater risks of extortion and theft, greater risks to our personnel and property, greater risks to the transport of materials to refineries, and greater risks to the supply of services and goods to our operations, including specialized equipment. These conditions, including security concerns in certain communities surrounding the San Jose de Gracia mine impacting third-party deliveries of supplies to San Jose de Gracia, could adversely impact our operations and lead to lower productivity and higher costs, which would adversely affect results of operations and cash flows. In addition, acts of civil disobedience are not uncommon in certain areas of Mexico where our operation and project is located. In recent years, many mining companies have been the targets of actions to restrict their legally entitled access to mining concessions or property. Such acts of civil disobedience often occur without warning and can result in significant direct and indirect costs. We cannot provide assurance that there will be no disruptions to site access in the future, which could adversely affect our business. We sell gold and silver concentrate in U.S. dollars, but we conduct operations outside the United States in local currency. Currency exchange movements could also adversely affect our results of operations.

Our success depends on developing and maintaining relationships with local communities and other stakeholders.

Our ongoing and future success depends on developing and maintaining productive relationships with the communities surrounding our operations, including indigenous peoples who may have rights or may assert rights to certain of our properties, and other stakeholders in our operating locations. We believe our operations can provide valuable benefits to surrounding communities, including through direct employment, training and skills development and other benefits associated with ongoing payment of taxes. In addition, we seek to maintain our partnerships and relationships with local communities, including indigenous peoples, and stakeholders in a variety of ways, including in-kind contributions, volunteer time, sponsorships and donations. There is an increasing level of public concern relating to the perceived effect of mining activities on indigenous communities. Evolving expectations related to human rights, indigenous interests and environmental protection may result in opposition to the Company’s current or future activities. Notwithstanding our ongoing efforts, local communities and stakeholders could become dissatisfied with our activities or the level of benefits provided, which may result in legal or administrative proceedings, civil unrest, protests, direct action or campaigns against us or our operations. Any such occurrences could materially and adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. In addition, the growing use of social media to generate, publish and discuss community news and issues and to connect with others has made it significantly easier, among other things, for individuals and groups to share their opinions of our business and our activities, whether true or not. We do not have direct control over how we are perceived by others and any resulting loss of reputation could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position and results of operations.

Our mining assets are subject to geotechnical and hydrological risks, and a related incident could materially and adversely impact our production, profitability and financial condition, as well as the value of our common stock.

Our mining assets are subject to geotechnical and hydrological risks which could impact the structural integrity of our mines, stockpiles, and tailings storage facilities. No assurances can be given that unanticipated adverse geotechnical and hydrological conditions, such as landslides, pit wall failures or tailings dam instability will not occur in the future or that such events will be detected in advance. Geotechnical and hydrological instabilities can be difficult to predict and are often affected by risks and hazards outside of our control, such as severe weather and considerable rainfall, which may lead to periodic floods, mudslides, wall instability and seismic activity, which may result in slippage of material. The occurrence of significant leach pad failures at third-party sites in recent years may result in the introduction of additional laws and regulations, which could result in additional operational and compliance costs for our sites. Some of these risks may be heightened further by the remote location of our operations.

Waste rock in the form of tailings generated as a by-product of processed ore is produced at our San Jose de Gracia mine. We place tailings into engineered containments, underground as structural backfill, and as thickened tailing into an engineered tailings dam. We believe that our tailings dams represent a low exposure risk profile for several reasons, including that our tailings dams were constructed using construction methods recognized in the industry as the most stable tailings dam design using high strength and chemically stable rock in construction. Our dams are continuously monitored and inspected by internal resources as well as third-party industry qualified experts. The significant dam failure events at other companies mining locations that have occurred in recent years may have lead, or will lead to, regulatory governance changes stemming from updated laws, regulation or guidance, which could result in increased operational and compliance costs if we need to make changes to existing facilities. The failure of a tailings dam or tailings storage facility at one of our mine sites could result in severe, and in some cases catastrophic, property and environmental damage and loss of life. Geotechnical or hydrological failures could result in limited or restricted access to mine sites, suspension of operations, government investigations, fines and penalties, lawsuits filed by parties who suffer injuries or property damage from such events, increased monitoring costs, remediation costs, loss of mineral reserves and resources and other

impacts, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial position as well as the value of our common stock.

Our estimates of future production, costs, expenditures and financial results are imprecise, depend upon subjective factors, may not be realized in actual production and such estimates speak only as of their respective dates.

We have in the past, and may in the future, provide estimates and projections of our future production, costs, expenditures and financial results. Any such information is forward-looking. Neither our independent registered public accounting firm nor any other independent expert or outside party compiles or examines these forward-looking statements and, accordingly, do not express any opinion or any other form of assurance on these estimates and projections. Estimates and projections are made by our management and technical personnel and are qualified by, and subject to the assumptions contained or referenced in the filing, release or presentation in which they are made, including assumptions about the availability, accessibility, sufficiency and quality of mineralization, recovery rates, our costs of production, the market prices of gold and silver, our ability to sustain and increase production levels, the ability to produce and sell marketable concentrates and related treatment and refining charges, the sufficiency of our infrastructure, the performance of our personnel and equipment, our ability to maintain and obtain mining interests and permits, the state of government and community relations, and our compliance with existing and future laws and regulations. We sometimes state possible outcomes as high and low ranges which are intended to provide a sensitivity analysis as variables are changed but are not intended to represent that actual results could not fall outside of the suggested ranges. Actual results and experience may differ materially from these assumptions. Any production, cost, expenditure or financial results estimates speak only as of the date on which they are made, and we disclaim any intent or obligation to update such estimates, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Accordingly, these forward-looking statements should be considered in the context in which they are made, and undue reliance should not be placed on them.

We may make use of derivative contracts to protect against market price volatility exposes us to risk of opportunity loss, mark-to-market fair value adjustments, potential cash collateral calls and exposure to counterparty credit risk.

We have in the past, and may in the future, enter into price risk management contracts to protect against fluctuations in the price of gold and silver, foreign currency rates and changes in the prices of fuel and other input costs. These contracts could include forward sales or purchase contracts, futures contracts, purchased or sold put and call options and other derivative instruments. We entered into price risk management contracts on certain gold sales in 2024 and 2025. We determined to implement these contracts to provide for a minimum level of revenue from the sales of the covered gold and silver ounces in order to mitigate the risk of not being able to fund all or a portion of the costs of several significant projects at our existing operations, as well as provide greater certainty in our planning and budgeting process. The use of derivative instruments can expose us to risk of an opportunity loss and may also result in significant mark-to-market fair value adjustments, which may require us to post cash or other collateral or have a material adverse impact on reported financial results. Our exposure may be particularly acute for our derivative instruments accounted for as cash flow hedges because those contracts are cash net settled on a monthly basis. We are exposed to credit risk with contract counterparties, including, but not limited to, sales contracts and derivative contracts. In the event of nonperformance in connection with a contract, we could be exposed to a loss of value for that contract.

If we acquire another property, we may be unable to successfully integrate, may not realize the expected benefits of recent or future acquisitions or may face risks associated with divestitures.

We may selectively acquire other businesses or assets or to spread our operational risks. Any acquisition would be accompanied by risks, including:

a significant change in macroeconomic conditions, including commodity prices, treatment and refining charges or stock prices after we have committed to complete the transaction and established the purchase price or exchange ratio;
additional debt incurred or equity issued to fund some or all of acquisition consideration, resulting in increased interest expense and other borrowing costs and dilution of our existing stockholders;
a material ore body may prove to be below our expectations;
processing facilities may not operate as well as anticipated, and may require significant maintenance, downtime and capital investment;

12

difficulties integrating and assimilating the operations and personnel of any acquired companies and supporting expanded operations, realizing anticipated synergies and maximizing the financial and strategic position of the combined enterprise, and maintaining uniform standards, policies and controls across the organization;
difficulties or loss of social license to operate resulting from failure of efforts to establish positive relationships and/or agreements with local communities or local indigenous peoples; and
the acquired business or assets may have significant liabilities, such as environmental liabilities, or significant capital expenditures that we failed to discover or have underestimated.

We cannot predict the impact of future acquisitions on the price of our common stock or assure that we will be able to obtain necessary acquisition or development financing on acceptable terms or at all. Unprofitable acquisitions, or additional liabilities, indebtedness or issuances of securities in connection with such acquisitions or any future mine development, may negatively affect our results of operations.

We are dependent upon information technology and operational technology, which are subject to cybersecurity incidents, disruption, damage, failure and other risks associated with implementation and integration.

The information technology and operational technology used in our business and operations are subject to disruption, damage or failure from a variety of sources, including, without limitation, computer viruses, security breaches, cyberattacks, natural disasters and defects in design. Cybersecurity incidents, in particular, are evolving and include, but are not limited to, malicious software, attempts to gain unauthorized access to data or machines and equipment, other electronic security breaches that could lead to disruptions in systems, unauthorized release of confidential or otherwise protected information, and the corruption of data or the disabling, misuse or malfunction of machines and equipment. Various measures have been implemented to manage our risks related to information technology, operational technology and network disruptions. However, given the unpredictability of the timing, nature and scope of information or operational technology disruptions, we could potentially be subject to production downtimes, operational delays, operating accidents, the compromising of confidential or otherwise protected information, destruction or corruption of data, security breaches, other manipulation or improper use of our systems, equipment and networks or financial losses from remedial actions, any of which could have a material adverse effect on cash flows, financial condition or results of operations. We may also incur large expenditures to recover data, to repair or replace networks or information or to protect against similar future events.

We could also be adversely affected by system or network disruptions if new or upgraded information technology systems are defective, not installed properly or not properly integrated into operations. Various measures have been implemented to manage the risks related to the system implementation and modification, but system modification failures could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position and results of operations. Although the Company has not experienced any material loss to date relating to cybersecurity, there can be no assurance that the Company will not incur such loss in the future. The Company currently does not maintain insurance policies to protect against losses arising from cybersecurity incidents that may occur.

There has been heightened legislative and regulatory focus on data privacy and cybersecurity in the United States and elsewhere. We may be required to comply with a fast-evolving set of legal requirements in this area, including substantive data privacy and cybersecurity standards. This regulatory environment may present material obligations and risks to our business, including significantly expanded compliance burdens, costs and enforcement risks.

We may be expected to continue enhancing our ESG practices to meet evolving and inconsistent standards.

ESG factors, including climate-related initiatives such as GHG emissions targets and climate risk management, are a metric used by many institutional investors to review and assess the performance of the Company and a significant factor in their investment decisions. We believe we have established ourselves as a leader among peers in ESG and continued to advance our ESG initiatives, and have adopted specific, objective goals such as continuing to improve our industry-leading safety record, reducing the net intensity of our GHG emissions across the Company, advancing our commitment to an inclusive culture to attract and retain the workforce we need today and in the future, strengthening community relations and protecting critical habitat. However, there are no assurances that our efforts will be sufficient or meet the standards set by ESG analysts or institutional or other investors.

Our operations may be disrupted, and our financial results may be adversely affected by an outbreak of infectious disease or pandemic.

An outbreak of infectious disease, pandemic or a similar public health threat, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, and the response thereto, could adversely impact our business and operations. If a significant portion of our workforce becomes unable to work or travel to our operations due to illness or government restrictions (including travel restrictions and “shelter-in-place” and similar orders restricting certain activities that may be issued or extended by authorities), we may be forced to reduce or suspend operations at one or more of our mines, which could reduce production, limit exploration activities and development projects and impact liquidity and financial results. While we have implemented several initiatives to protect the health and safety of our employees, contractors and communities to date, some of which have and may result in additional costs to us, there can be no assurance that the Company will remain unaffected by potential future health crises. Public health threats and related government restrictions, including potential closure of national borders, may disrupt the supply of raw goods, equipment, supplies and services upon which our operations rely. Third parties with whom we conduct business, including the refiners and smelters that process and, in some cases, purchase the doré and concentrate produced by our mines, are also subject to these risks and may be required to reduce or suspend operations, which could impact our ability to conduct our operations, advance exploration, development and expansion projects, or sell our products and generate revenues.

To the extent any pandemic or other public health threat adversely affects our business and financial results, it may also have the effect of heightening many of the other risks described in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, such as those relating to our operations and indebtedness and financing. Because of the highly uncertain and dynamic nature of events related to pandemics and other public health threats, it is not possible to estimate the full potential impact on our business. However, these effects could have a material impact on our business and results of operations or financial condition.

Our business depends on good relations with, and the retention and hiring of, personnel.

We may experience labor disputes, work stoppages or other disruptions in production that could adversely affect our business and results of operations. Labor disruptions may be used to advocate labor, political or social goals, particularly at non-U.S. mines. For example, labor disruptions may occur in sympathy with strikes or labor unrest in other sectors of local economies. We cannot assure that work stoppages, union organizing activities or other disruptions will not occur in the future. Any such work stoppage or disruption could expose us to significant costs and have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition. We compete with other mining companies to attract and retain key executives, skilled labor, contractors and other employees. We may be unable to continue to attract and retain skilled and experienced employees and contractors, which could have an adverse effect on our competitive position or adversely impact our results of operations or financial condition.

Continuation of our mining operations is dependent on the availability of sufficient and affordable water supplies.

Our mining operations require significant quantities of water for mining, ore processing and related support facilities. In particular, our property in Mexico is in areas where water is scarce and competition among users for continuing access to water is significant. Continuous production and mine development is dependent on our ability to acquire and maintain water rights and claims and to defeat claims adverse to current water uses in legal proceedings. Although our operating mine currently has sufficient water rights and claims to cover its operational demands, we cannot predict the potential outcome of pending or future legal proceedings relating to enforcement of water rights, claims and uses, or potential pressure from other users of water, government agencies and officials, and/or non-governmental organizations to limit the amount of water made available to or used for mining activities, regardless of legally valid water rights.

Water shortages may also result from weather or environmental and climate impacts outside of our control. Shortages in water supply could result in interruptions to production and processing activities. In addition, the scarcity of water in certain regions could result in increased costs to obtain sufficient quantities of water to conduct our operations. The loss of some or all water rights, ongoing litigation to enforce existing water rights, ongoing shortages of water to which we have rights and/or significantly higher costs to obtain sufficient quantities of water could result in our inability to maintain production at current or expected levels, require us to curtail or shut down mining operations or could prevent us from pursuing expansion or development opportunities, which could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. Laws and regulations may be introduced in the jurisdictions in which we operate which could also limit access to sufficient water resources, adversely affecting our existing operations or our expansion or development plans.

We may not be able to recognize the benefits of deferred tax assets.

We have accrued deferred tax assets in various jurisdictions from past operating losses, but may not be able to utilize part or all of these assets in the future. We recognize the expected future tax benefit from these assets only if it is considered more likely than not that the tax benefit will be realized. Otherwise, a valuation allowance is applied against deferred tax assets that are not more likely than not to be utilized. Assessing the recoverability of deferred tax assets requires management to make significant estimates related to expectations of future taxable income, including application of existing tax laws in each jurisdiction, assumptions about future metals prices, the macroeconomic environment and results of our operations. To the extent that future cash flows and taxable income differ significantly from estimates, our ability to realize deferred tax assets could be impacted. Additionally, future changes in tax laws or changed interpretations or applications of relevant laws by government agencies – even if contrary to existing legal precedent or punitive in nature – could limit our ability to realize the future benefits represented by our deferred tax assets and annual limitations may impact the timeframe over which the net operating loss carryforwards can be used, potentially impacting cash tax liabilities in a future period.

Our accounting and other estimates may be imprecise.

Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and related disclosure of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses at the date of the consolidated financial statements and reporting periods. Future estimates and actual results may differ materially from these estimates as a result of using different assumptions or conditions. For additional information, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

A significant amount of our mining properties is subject to exchange control policies, the effects of inflation, and currency fluctuations between the U.S. dollar and the Mexican peso.

Our revenue and external funding are primarily denominated in U.S. dollars. However, certain mining, processing, maintenance, and exploration costs are denominated in Mexican pesos. These costs principally include electricity, labor, water, maintenance, local contractors, and fuel. The appreciation of the peso against the U.S. dollar increases expenses and the cost of purchasing capital assets in U.S. dollar terms in Mexico, which can adversely impact our operating results and cash flows. Conversely, the depreciation of the Mexican peso decreases operating costs and capital asset purchases in U.S. dollar terms. When inflation in Mexico increases without a corresponding devaluation of the Mexican peso, our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows could be materially adversely affected. Current and future inflationary effects may be driven by, among other things, supply chain disruptions, governmental stimulus or fiscal policies, and geopolitical instability.

Lack of infrastructure could forestall or prevent further exploration and advancement.

Exploration and development activities depend on adequate infrastructure. Reliable roads, power sources, and water supply are important factors that affect capital and operating costs and the feasibility and economic viability of a project. Unanticipated or higher than expected costs and unusual or infrequent weather phenomena, or government or other interference in the maintenance or provision of such infrastructure, could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

There is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. This assumes continuing operations and the realization of assets and liabilities in the normal course of business.

We have incurred significant losses since our inception and expect to continue to incur losses as a result of costs and expenses related to maintaining our properties and general and administrative expenses. As of December 31, 2025, we had cash of approximately $4.2 million and an accumulated deficit of approximately $65.4 million. As a result of our evaluation of the Company’s liquidity for the next twelve months, we have included a discussion about our ability to continue as a going concern in our consolidated financial statements, and our independent auditor’s report for year ended December 31, 2025 includes an explanatory paragraph that expresses substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a “going concern.” Our capital needs have, in recent years, been funded through sales of our debt and equity securities, including debt convertible into equity. In the event that we are unable to raise sufficient additional funds, we may be required to delay, reduce or severely curtail our operations or otherwise impede our on-going business efforts, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, financial condition, long-term prospects and ability to continue as a viable business.

Risks Related to Indebtedness and Financing

Our future operating performance may not generate cash flows sufficient to meet debt payment obligations.

As of December 31, 2025, we had approximately $15 million of outstanding indebtedness. Our ability to make scheduled debt payments on outstanding indebtedness will depend on future results of operations and cash flows. Our results of operations and cash flows, in part, are subject to economic factors beyond our control, including the market prices of gold and silver, among other factors described in this Item. Although we have been successful in repaying or refinancing debt historically, there can be no assurance that we can continue to do so. We may not be able to generate enough cash flow to meet obligations and commitments under outstanding debt instruments. If and to the extent liquidity resources are insufficient to support short- and long-term expenditures, we could face substantial liquidity problems and could be forced to reduce or delay investments and capital expenditures, dispose of material assets or operations, incur additional debt or equity capital or restructure or refinance our indebtedness. We cannot predict whether we would be able to refinance debt, issue equity or debt securities or dispose of assets to raise funds on a timely basis or on satisfactory terms, which could have a material adverse impact on the Company. The cost of borrowing additional funds or refinancing outstanding indebtedness may vary depending on market conditions and interest rate levels. The agreements governing our outstanding indebtedness restrict our ability to dispose of certain assets and use the proceeds from those dispositions and may also restrict our ability to raise debt or equity capital to be used to repay other indebtedness when it becomes due. We may not be able to consummate those dispositions or to obtain proceeds in an amount sufficient to meet any debt service obligations then due.

The terms of our debt impose restrictions on our operations.

The agreements governing our outstanding indebtedness include a number of significant negative covenants. A breach of any of the terms of our debt could result in an event of default under the applicable agreement governing our outstanding indebtedness that, if not cured or waived, could cause all amounts outstanding with respect to the debt to be due and payable immediately. Our inability to meet any of these covenants may also result in a lender requiring us to agree to restrictive covenants which may, among other things, limit our ability to fund our existing operations or incur additional indebtedness. Our assets and cash flow may be insufficient to repay borrowings fully under all of our outstanding debt instruments if any of our debt instruments are accelerated upon an event of default, which could force the Company into bankruptcy or liquidation.

Risks Related to Applicable Laws and Regulations

We are subject to significant governmental regulations and related costs and delays associated with compliance may negatively affect our business.

Mining activities are subject to extensive federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations governing environmental protection, natural resources, prospecting, development, production, post-closure reclamation, taxes, labor standards and occupational health and safety, including mine safety, toxic substances and other matters. The costs associated with compliance with such laws and regulations are substantial. Changes in existing laws, possible future laws and regulations, or more restrictive interpretations of current laws and regulations by governmental authorities, could cause additional expense, capital expenditures, restrictions on or suspensions of operations and delays in the development of new properties. Recent amendments to mining, water and environmental laws in Mexico, and the subsequent corresponding regulations thereto, could impose additional restrictions on our ability to obtain and maintain mining and water rights and operate in Mexico, among other potentially adverse provisions. Legal actions challenging the validity and implementation of these recent amendments have been filed by various groups and the proceedings remain ongoing. Failure to comply with applicable laws, regulations and permitting requirements may result in temporary or extended shutdowns, including orders issued by regulatory or judicial authorities causing operations to cease or be curtailed, which may require corrective measures, including the payment of fines or penalties, capital expenditures, installation of additional equipment or remedial actions, any of which could have a material, adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

Compliance with environmental regulations and litigation based on environmental regulations could require significant expenditures.

Environmental regulations mandate, among other things, the maintenance of air and water quality standards, land development and land reclamation, and set forth limitations on the generation, transportation, storage and disposal of solid and hazardous waste. Environmental legislation and environmental justice provisions are evolving in a manner that may require stricter standards and enforcement, increased fines and penalties for non-compliance, more stringent environmental assessments of proposed projects, and a heightened degree of responsibility for mining companies and their officers, directors and employees. We may incur environmental costs that could have a material adverse effect on financial condition and results of operations. Any failure to remedy

16


Table of Contents

 

an environmental problem could require us to suspend operations or enter into interim compliance measures pending completion of the required remedy. The environmental standards that ultimately may be imposed at a mine site affect the cost of remediation and could exceed the financial accruals that we have made for such remediation.

The potential exposure may be significant and could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

Moreover, governmental authorities and private parties may bring lawsuits based upon damage to property and injury to persons resulting from the environmental, health and safety impacts of prior and current operations, including operations conducted by other mining companies many years ago on properties that we currently or previously owned. These lawsuits could lead to the imposition of substantial fines, remediation costs, penalties and other civil and criminal sanctions. Substantial costs and liabilities, including for restoring the environment after the closure of mines, are inherent in our operations. We cannot assure that any such law, regulation, enforcement or private claim would not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. Regulations under the General Law of Ecological Balance and Environmental Protection (“GLEBPE”) relate to prevention and control of the pollution of the atmosphere in Mexico. In addition, there are numerous legislative and regulatory initiatives related to climate change, reductions in greenhouse gas emissions, or energy policy and adoption of these initiatives through legislative actions or administrative policy could have a material adverse effect on results of operations and cash flows. However, we are unable to predict the scope, nature and timing of any new or increased environmental laws and regulations and therefore cannot predict the ultimate impact of such laws and regulations on our business or financial results. We continue to monitor existing and proposed laws and regulations in the jurisdictions in which we operate to consider actions we may take to potentially mitigate any unfavorable impact of such laws or regulations.

We are required to obtain and renew governmental permits in order to conduct operations, a process which is often costly and time-consuming. Our ability to obtain necessary government permits to expand operations or begin new operations may be materially affected by third-party activists.

In the normal course of our business, we are required to obtain and renew governmental permits for exploration, operations and expansion of existing operations. Obtaining and renewing governmental permits is a complex and time-consuming process. The timeliness and success of permitting efforts are contingent upon many variables not within our control, including the interpretation of permit approval requirements administered by the applicable permitting authority and government and third-party sentiment towards the mining industry generally. We may not be able to obtain or renew permits that are necessary to our operations, or the cost and time required to obtain or renew permits may exceed our expectations. Any unexpected delays or costs associated with the permitting process could impede or delay the development or operation of a mine, which in turn could have a material adverse effect on our revenues and future growth. Any delay in obtaining a permit may require us to revise mine plans or curtail expected production, which could have a material adverse effect on results of operations and cash flow. In addition, key permits and approvals may be revoked or suspended or may be changed in a manner that adversely affects our operations.

Private parties such as environmental activists frequently attempt to intervene in the permitting process and to persuade regulators to deny necessary permits or seek to overturn permits that have been issued. Obtaining the necessary governmental permits is a complex and time-consuming process involving numerous jurisdictions and often involving public hearings and costly undertakings. These third-party actions can materially increase the costs and cause delays in the permitting process and could cause us to not proceed with the development or expansion of a mine. In addition, our ability to successfully obtain key permits and approvals to explore for minerals and to develop, operate and expand mines, as well as to conduct our operations, will likely depend on our ability to develop, operate, expand and close mines in a manner that is consistent with the creation of social and economic benefits in the surrounding communities, which may or may not be required by law. Our ability to obtain permits and approvals and to successfully operate in particular communities may be adversely impacted by real or perceived detrimental events associated with our activities or those of other mining companies affecting the environment, human health and safety of communities in which we operate.

Our business is subject to anti-bribery laws, a breach or violation of which could lead to civil and criminal fines and penalties, loss of licenses or permits and reputational harm.

We operate in certain jurisdictions that have experienced governmental and private sector corruption. The U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, as well as Canadian and Mexican anti-bribery laws generally prohibit companies and their intermediaries from making improper payments for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business or other commercial advantage. Violations of these laws, or allegations of such violations, could lead to civil and criminal fines and penalties, litigation, and loss of operating licenses or permits, and may damage our reputation, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position and results of operations. Our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics and other corporate policies mandate compliance with these

17


Table of Contents

 

anti-bribery laws, and we provide training and education on these topics to our employees; however, there can be no assurance that our internal control policies and procedures always will protect us from recklessness, fraudulent behavior, dishonesty or other inappropriate acts or violations of laws committed by our affiliates, employees or agents.

We are subject to litigation and may be subject to additional litigation in the future.

We are currently, and may in the future become, subject to other litigation, arbitration or proceedings with other parties. If decided adversely to us, these legal proceedings, or others that could be brought against us in the future, could have a material adverse effect on our financial position or prospects. Responding to disputes, even those that are without merit or ultimately decided in our favor, may require us to incur significant expense, devote significant resources, and may generate adverse publicity, which could materially and adversely affect our business. In the event of a dispute arising at our foreign operations, we may be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of foreign courts or arbitral panels or may not be successful in subjecting foreign persons to the jurisdiction of courts or arbitral panels in the United States. Our inability to enforce our rights and the enforcement of rights on a prejudicial basis by foreign courts or arbitral panels could have an adverse effect on our results of operations and financial position.

Disputes regarding our mining claims, concessions or surface rights to land in the vicinity of our mining projects could adversely impact operations.

The validity of exploration or mining claims, concessions or rights, which constitute most of our property holdings, is often uncertain and may be contested. We have used commercially reasonable efforts, in accordance with industry standards, to investigate our title or claims to our various properties, however, no assurance can be given that applicable governments will not revoke or significantly alter the conditions of the applicable exploration or mining claims, concessions or rights, or that such exploration or mining claims, concessions or rights will not be challenged by third parties. Although we have attempted to acquire satisfactory title to undeveloped properties, in accordance with mining industry practice, we do not generally obtain title opinions until a decision is made to develop a property. As a result, some titles may be defective, particularly titles to undeveloped properties. Defective title to any of our exploration or mining claims, concessions or rights could result in litigation, insurance claims and potential losses affecting our business as a whole. There may be challenges to the title of any of the claims, concessions or rights comprising our projects that, if successful, could impair development and operations. A defect could result in us losing all or a portion of our right, title, estate and interest in and to the properties to which the title defect relates. In Mexico, while mineral rights are administered by the federal government through federally issued mining concessions, federally recognized agrarian communities called ejidos control surface or surface access rights to the land. An ejido may sell or lease lands directly to a private entity. While we have agreements or are in the process of negotiating agreements with the ejidos that impact all of our projects in Mexico, some of these agreements may be subject to renegotiation or legal challenges. Refer to Item 3. Legal Proceedings for a description of current legal proceedings related to our mining concessions.

The Company’s effective tax rate could be volatile and materially change as a result of changes in tax laws, mix of earnings and other factors.

We are subject to tax laws in the United States and Mexico. Changes in fiscal and tax policies, including new tax legislation and reform to existing policy, may have a significant negative impact on the Company’s effective tax rate. Additionally, the jurisdictions in which we operate have and may in the future continue to encounter financial difficulties resulting from one or both of lower tax revenue and new and increased costs. National, state or local governments may seek to raise existing taxes or introduce new taxes, which may adversely affect our business and financial results.

Risks Related to Our Common Stock, Securities Markets and Investment in Our Common Stock

We have the ability to issue additional equity securities, including in connection with any acquisition of other companies, which would lead to dilution of our issued and outstanding common stock and may materially and adversely affect the price of our common stock.

The issuance of additional equity securities or securities convertible into equity securities, whether to acquire new companies or businesses or for other strategic benefits, would result in dilution of our existing stockholders’ equity ownership. An increase to the number of outstanding shares of DynaResource’s common stock may impact the marketplace’s view of DynaResource’s common stock and may lead to adverse changes in the stock’s trading volume and trading price. We are authorized to issue, without stockholder approval, 13.7 million shares of preferred stock in one or more series, to establish the number of shares to be included in each series and to fix the designation, powers, preferences and relative participating, optional, conversion and other special rights of the shares of each series as well as the qualification, limitations or restrictions on each series. Any series of preferred stock could contain dividend rights, conversion rights, voting rights, terms of redemption, redemption prices, liquidation preferences or other

rights superior to the rights of holders of our common stock. If we issue additional equity securities, the price of our common stock may be materially and adversely affected.

Holders of our common stock may not receive dividends.

We have not historically declared cash dividends on our common stock. Holders of our common stock are entitled to receive only such dividends as our Board of Directors may declare out of funds legally available for such payments. We are incorporated in Delaware and governed by the Delaware General Corporation Law. Delaware law allows a corporation to pay dividends only out of surplus, as determined under Delaware law or, if there is no surplus, out of net profits for the fiscal year in which the dividend was declared and for the preceding fiscal year. Under Delaware law, however, we cannot pay dividends out of net profits if, after we pay the dividend, our capital would be less than the capital represented by the outstanding stock of all classes having a preference upon the distribution of assets. Our ability to pay dividends will be subject to our future earnings, capital requirements and financial condition, as well as our compliance with covenants related to existing or future indebtedness and would only be declared in the discretion of our Board of Directors.

Our common stock price may be volatile and as a result you could lose all or part of your investment.

In addition to volatility associated with equity securities in general, the value of your investment could decline due to the impact of any of the following factors upon the market price of our shares of common stock:

disappointing results from our mining operations;
decline in demand for our shares of common stock;
downward revisions in securities analysts’ estimates or changes in general market conditions;
technological innovations by competitors that are better funded than we are;
investor perception of our industry or our prospects; and
general economic trends.

Stock markets in general have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations, and the market prices of securities have been highly volatile. These fluctuations are often unrelated to operating performance and may adversely affect the market price of our shares of common stock.

There has been a limited public market for our common stock and there is no assurance that a more active, liquid and orderly trading market will develop for our common stock or what the market price of our common stock will be.

There is and has been a limited public market for shares of our common stock on the OTCQX. Investors may find it difficult to obtain accurate quotations as to the market value of our common stock. In addition, if we fail to meet the criteria set forth in SEC regulations, various requirements would be imposed by law on broker-dealers who sell our securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors. Consequently, such regulations may deter broker-dealers from recommending or selling our common stock, which may further affect liquidity. This could also make it more difficult to raise additional capital.

Potential future sales pursuant to registration rights granted by the Company and under Rule 144 may depress the market price for our shares of common stock.

The Company has granted one of its stockholders’ registration rights with respect to their shares of Series C preferred stock convertible into shares of common stock. Such future sales of our shares of common stock by that existing stockholders, pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of any registration statement, may have a depressive effect on the market price of our shares of common stock. Further, in general, under Rule 144 under the Securities Act, a person who has satisfied a minimum holding period of between six months and one-year and any other applicable requirements of Rule 144, may thereafter sell such shares publicly. A significant number of our currently issued and outstanding shares of common stock held by existing stockholders, including officers and directors and other principal stockholders are currently eligible for resale pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of Rule 144. The possible future sale of our shares by our existing stockholders, pursuant to and in accordance with

19


Table of Contents

 

the provisions of Rule 144, may have a depressive effect on the price of our Shares of common stock in the applicable trading marketplace.

Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”) has adopted sales practice requirements that may also limit a stockholder’s ability to buy and sell our common stock.

FINRA has adopted rules that require that, in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to recommending speculative low-priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer’s financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative, low-priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our shares of common stock, which may limit your ability to buy and sell our stock and have an adverse effect on the market for our shares of common stock.

We face risks related to compliance with corporate governance laws and financial reporting standards.

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act, as well as related rules and regulations implemented by the SEC and the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, require changes in the corporate governance practices and financial reporting standards for public companies. These laws, rules and regulations, including compliance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act relating to internal control over financial reporting, referred to as Section 404, materially increased our legal and financial compliance costs and made some activities more time-consuming and more burdensome.

Volatility in the price of our common stock may subject us to securities litigation.

As discussed above, the market for our common stock has been characterized recently by significant price volatility when compared to seasoned issuers, and we expect that our share price will continue to be more volatile than a seasoned issuer for the indefinite future. In the past, plaintiffs have often initiated securities class action litigation against a company following periods of volatility in the market price of its securities. We may in the future be the target of similar litigation. Securities litigation could result in substantial costs and liabilities and could divert management’s attention and resources.

A “short squeeze” due to a sudden increase in demand for shares of our common stock that largely exceeds supply and/or focused investor trading in anticipation of a potential short squeeze have led to, may be currently leading to, and could again lead to, extreme price volatility in shares of our common stock.

Investors may purchase shares of our common stock to hedge existing exposure or to speculate on the price of our common stock. Speculation on the price of our common stock may involve long and short exposures. To the extent aggregate short exposure exceeds the number of shares of our common stock available for purchase on the open market, investors with short exposure may have to pay a premium to repurchase shares of our common stock for delivery to lenders of our common stock. Those repurchases may, in turn, dramatically increase the price of shares of our common stock until additional shares of our common stock are available for trading or borrowing. This is often referred to as a “short squeeze.” With the recent substantial increase in volume of our shares being traded and trading price, the proportion of our common stock that may be traded in the future by short sellers may increase the likelihood that our common stock will be the target of a short squeeze. A short squeeze and/or focused investor trading in anticipation of a short squeeze have led to, may be currently leading to, and could again lead to volatile price movements in shares of our common stock that may be unrelated or disproportionate to our financial performance or prospects and, once investors purchase the shares of our common stock necessary to cover their short positions, or if investors no longer believe a short squeeze is viable, the price of our common stock may rapidly decline. Investors that purchase shares of our common stock during a short squeeze may lose a significant portion of their investment. Under the circumstances, we caution you against investing in our common stock, unless you are prepared to incur the risk of losing all or a substantial portion of your investment.

If securities or industry analysts do not publish research or reports about the Company, or publish negative reports, the Company’s share price and trading volume could decline.

The trading market for our shares of common stock may be influenced by the extent to which securities or industry analysts publish research or reports about the Company. We do not have any control over these analysts. If our financial performance fails to meet analyst estimates or one or more of the analysts who cover the Company downgrade its shares of common stock or change their opinion, the Company’s share price would likely decline. Currently, the Company has limited or no analyst coverage, and there can be no assurance that analysts will initiate or maintain coverage of the Company in the future.

 

20


Table of Contents

 

The absence of analyst coverage, or limited dissemination of information about the Company by market participants, may reduce investor awareness and interest in the Company, which could result in lower trading volume, increased share price volatility, or a decline in the market price of our common stock. In addition, without regular third‑party analysis, investors may have less information available to evaluate the Company, which could adversely affect liquidity in the Company’s securities.

Because the Company does not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future, capital appreciation, if any, would be your sole source of gain.

We currently anticipate that we will retain future earnings for the development, operation and expansion of our business and do not anticipate declaring or paying any cash dividends for the foreseeable future. As a result, capital appreciation, if any, of the Company’s shares of common stock would be your sole source of gain on an investment in such shares for the foreseeable future.

Potential future offerings of debt, which would be senior to our common stock upon liquidation, and/or preferred equity securities, which may be senior to our common stock for purposes of distributions or upon liquidation, could adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

In the future, we may attempt to increase our capital resources by making additional offerings of debt or preferred equity securities, including convertible or non-convertible senior or subordinated notes, convertible or non-convertible preferred stock, medium-term notes and trust preferred securities. Upon liquidation, holders of our debt securities and shares of preferred stock and lenders with respect to other borrowings will receive distributions of our available assets prior to the holders of our common stock. In addition, any preferred stock we may issue could have a preference on liquidating distributions or a preference on distribution payments that could limit our ability to make a distribution to the holders of our common stock. Since our decision to issue securities in any future offering will depend on market conditions and other factors beyond our control, we cannot predict or estimate the amount, timing or nature of our future offerings. Thus, our stockholders bear the risk of our future offerings reducing the market price of our common stock.

Anti-takeover provisions of Delaware law could impair a takeover attempt.

We are subject to anti-takeover provisions under Delaware law, which could delay or prevent a change of control. These provisions may make more difficult the removal of management and may discourage transactions that otherwise could involve payment of a premium over prevailing market prices for our securities. These provisions will include:

no cumulative voting in the election of directors, which limits the ability of minority stockholders to elect director candidates;
the right of our Board to elect a director to fill a vacancy created by the expansion of our Board or the resignation, death, or removal of a director in certain circumstances, which prevents stockholders from being able to fill vacancies on our Board; and
a prohibition on stockholder action by written consent, which forces stockholder action to be taken at an annual or special meeting of our stockholders.

If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal controls, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results or prevent fraud. As a result, current and potential stockholders could lose confidence in our financial reporting, which would harm our business and the trading price of our common stock.

Effective internal controls are necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports, prevent fraud and operate successfully as a public company. If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, our reputation and operating results would be harmed. We cannot be certain that our efforts to develop and maintain our internal controls will be successful, that we will be able to maintain adequate controls over our financial processes and reporting in the future or that we will be able to comply with our obligations under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Any failure to develop or maintain effective internal controls, or difficulties encountered in implementing or improving our internal controls, could harm our operating results or cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations. Ineffective internal controls could also cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, which would likely have a negative effect on the trading price of our common stock.

Our business will be subject to the risks of climate change, natural catastrophic events, world events, and man-made problems such as power disruptions or terrorism.

A significant natural disaster, such as an earthquake, a fire, a flood, or significant power outage could have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Climate change or a natural disaster could affect our personnel, data centers, supply chain, manufacturing vendors, or logistics providers’ ability to provide materials and perform services such as manufacturing products or assisting with shipments on a timely basis. In addition, climate change could result in an increase in the frequency or severity of natural disasters. Climate change or a natural disaster may also affect our ability to occur raw materials needed for manufacturing and production. Likewise, we could be subject to other man-made problems, including but not limited to power disruptions and terrorist acts. Although we will maintain incident management and disaster response plans, in the event of a major disruption caused by a natural disaster or man-made problem, we may be unable to continue its operations and may endure system interruptions, reputational harm, delays in our development activities, lengthy interruptions in service, breaches of data security and loss of critical data, and our insurance may not cover such events or may be insufficient to compensate it for the potentially significant losses we may incur. Acts of terrorism and other geo-political unrest could also cause disruptions in our business or the business of our supply chain, manufacturers, logistics providers, partners, or customers or the economy as a whole. Any disruption in the business of its supply chain, manufacturers, logistics providers, partners or customers that impacts sales at the end of a fiscal quarter could have a significant adverse impact on our financial results. All of the aforementioned risks may be further increased if disaster recovery plans prove to be inadequate. To the extent that any of the above should result in delays or cancellations of customer orders, or the delay in the manufacture, deployment, or shipment of our products, our business, financial condition, and results of operations would be adversely affected.

 

ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS

None.

ITEM 1C. CYBERSECURITY

 

The Company has adopted processes to assess, identify, and manage material risks posed by cybersecurity threats. These processes are integrated into the Company’s overall enterprise risk management framework.

 

Cybersecurity risk management is overseen by the Company’s Managed Service Provider (MSP), Computer Doctoring Inc., which provides structured cybersecurity oversight, monitoring, and incident response services. The MSP has significant experience designing and implementing layered cybersecurity programs aligned with recognized frameworks, including NIST and ISO 27001 best practices.

 

The Company employs a multi-layered security model that includes:

Advanced endpoint detection and response (EDR)
Centralized monitoring and logging
Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) and role-based access control
Third-party AI-driven email threat protection
Continuous patch management and vulnerability remediation
Dark web credential monitoring
Independent SaaS backup and disaster recovery controls

 

These controls are centrally monitored using the full Kaseya security and management suite, enabling proactive threat detection, system visibility, and operational oversight across the Company’s environment.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company did not experience any risks from cybersecurity threats that materially affected or were reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s business strategy, results of operations, or financial condition.

The Company’s Board of Directors, through its Audit Committee (the “Committee”), oversees cybersecurity risks. The MSP provides ongoing reporting to management regarding cybersecurity posture, threat activity, and incident response readiness. Any material cybersecurity risks or incidents are escalated to executive management and reported to the Committee as appropriate.

DynaMéxico claims an ownership interest in the San Jose de Gracia mineral concessions, which are comprised of 33 distinct concessions covering an aggregate of approximately 9,920 hectares.

 

The property on which the SJG mine resides is located in and around the village of San Jose de Gracia, approximately 100 km northeast of Guamuchil, on the west side of Mexico. The village of San Jose de Gracia has a small airstrip and can be accessed by a small airplane, or alternatively, by a dirt mountain road. There are roads providing access to the property on which the SJG mine resides which are accessible throughout the year, with the possible exception of June and July when the rainy season sometimes causes flooding and runoff to make the roads too muddy to navigate.

 

 

 

Local Resources and Infrastructure

Accommodations

 

The village of San Jose de Gracia maintains a few stores which offer essential goods and services. The camp site area, which is closer to the mining activities, maintains facilities of twelve rooms with additional lodging available in the village which can accommodate a total of about 238 persons.

Power

A power line to the SJG mine has been installed by the Comisión Federal de Electricidad, the only authorized power producer in

24


Table of Contents

 

Mexico. The power line was installed in March 2012 from the La Estancia area of the municipality of Sinaloa de Leyva, a distance of approximately 75 kilometers.

The power line is currently 220 volts maximum capacity, which supports domestic use only, including the office and camp facilities at the SJG mine, such as water pump, air conditioning, refrigeration, lights, internet, and fans, as well as local residential use. The SJG mine produces its own diesel-generated power as a backup to the power grid.

Offices – Camp Facilities

 

The SJG mine sources many of its supplies from nearby towns, Guamuchil, Los Mochis and Culiacan. There is a satellite dish installed at the SJG mine providing communications to and from the SJG mine. At the SJG mine, DynaMexico maintains a camp staff, including geologists, field helpers, consultants, security, cooks and cleaners. Most of these employees come from the local community.

Mining Concessions

The SJG mine consists of the following 33 contiguous mining concessions which covers an area of approximately 9,920 hectares (24,513 acres):

Title of 32 of the 33 mining concessions is registered in the sole name of DynaMéxico. The one exception is the San Miguel concession. For the San Miguel concession, DynaMéxico has entered into transfer agreements with the registered owners of 50%

25


Table of Contents

 

of the concession title, and DynaMéxico has also entered into promise to sell and purchase agreements with registered owners of the balance of the concession title. Under Mexican law, such agreements require the consent or relinquishment of first rights of refusal from the registered owners of 100% of the concession title, in order to have legal effect and be eligible for registration with the Mines Recorders’ Office. Refer to Item 3. Legal Proceedings for description of the current legal proceedings to confirm the Company’s right to nine of its concessions.

Under amendments to the Mining Law that came into effect in December 2006, the classifications of Mining Exploration Concessions and Mining Exploitation Concessions were replaced by a single classification of Mining Concessions valid for a renewable term of 50 years, commencing from the initial issuance date. To be converted into Mining Concessions at the time these amendments came into effect, former mining exploration and mining exploitation concessions had to be in good standing at the time of conversion.

All of the SJG mine concessions were in good standing and consequently were converted to 50-year Mining Concessions in December 2006, at the time the amendments to the Mining Law came into effect. To renew the 50-year term, Mining Concessions must be in good standing at the time an application for renewal is filed, and an application for renewal must be filed within 5 years prior to expiration of the term.

To maintain Mining Concessions in good standing, the registered owner must (a) pay bi-annual mining duties in advance, by January 31 and July 31 each year, (b) file assessment work reports by May 30 each year, for the preceding year (some exceptions apply), and (c) by January 31 each year, file statistical reports on exploration / exploitation work conducted for the preceding year. The Company believes it is in good standing regarding all above noted obligations.

Notice of Commencement of Production Activities and Annual Production Reports must be filed annually by January 31 each year for those concessions where mineral ore extraction is taking place. As a general provision, registered owners of Mining Concessions must follow environmental and labor laws and regulations in order to maintain their Mining Concessions in good standing.

The following claim location map shows the location of each of the concessions and the legend presents various areas of mining and drilling.

Surface Rights

In addition to the surface rights held by DynaMéxico pursuant to the Mining Law, the Company maintains access and surface rights for the SJG mine pursuant to a 20-year Land Lease Agreement. This lease agreement with the Santa Maria Ejido Community (the owners of the surface rights) is dated January 6, 2014 and continues through 2033. The lease agreement covers an area of 4,399 hectares surrounding the main mineral resource areas of the SJG mine and provides for annual lease payments of $1,359,443 Pesos (adjusted for inflation). The 2025 payment was $5,932,583 pesos (approx. $304,000 USD).

The lease agreement provides the Company with surface access to the core resource areas of the SJG mine (4,399 hectares), and allows for all permitted mining, production and exploration activities.

Water Rights Concession

The Company has secured the Water Rights Concession for the area surrounding the SJG mine. The Director of Water Administration of the National Water Commission of México (“CONAGUA”) formally certified in writing the rights of DynaMéxico to legally “use”, exploit and extract 1,000,000 cubic meters of water per year from the DynaMéxico extraction infrastructure located within the perimeter of the mining concessions. CONAGUA determined that the DynaMéxico water rights are not subject to any water rights concession or any other water extraction restriction. Water extracted by DynaMéxico will be

27


Table of Contents

 

subject to applicable levies imposed by the Mexican tax authorities in accordance with current Mexican tax laws. The water concession provides sufficient water for current operations, and for the anticipated future needs of the SJG mine. The Company recycles water from the tailings pond back through the milling circuit, then back to the tailings pond.

Royalties, Encumbrances and Environmental Liabilities

The SJG mine is not subject to any royalties or encumbrances, other than in accordance with our Revolving Credit Line, and there are no known environmental liabilities.

Required Permits for Exploration, Drilling and Mining

In respect of permit requirements for mineral exploration and mining in Mexico, the most relevant applicable laws, regulations and official technical norms are the Mining Law, the Federal Environmental Protection and Ecological Equilibrium Act (plus its regulations), the Federal Sustainable Forestry Development Act (plus its regulations), the Federal Explosives and Firearms Act, the National Waters Act and the Mexican Official Norm 120.

To carry out mineral exploration activities, holders of mining concessions in Mexico are required to file at the offices of the Federal Secretariat of the Environment and Natural Resources ("SEMARNAT”) a "Notice of Commencement of Exploration Activities” or "Preventive Exploration Notice” in accordance with the guidelines of the Mexican Official Norm 120 ("NOM-120”).

If contemplated mineral exploration activities fall outside of the guidelines of the NOM-120 (e.g. exploration activities on rain forest areas), a "Change of Soil Use Permit Application” ("CSUP”) is required to be filed at SEMARNAT under the guidelines of the Federal Sustainable Forestry Development Act and its Regulations. To meet the requirements for issuance of a change of soil use permit, the applicant must file (together with the CSUP) a Technical Study ("Technical Justification Study”) to justify the change of soil use from forestry to mining, in order to demonstrate that biodiversity will not be compromised and that there will be no soil erosion or water quality deterioration on completion of the mineral exploration activities.

To carry out mining activities in Mexico, holders of mining concessions are required to file an "Environmental Impact Assessment Study” under the guidelines of the Federal Environmental Protection and Ecological Equilibrium Act and its Regulations, in order to evaluate the environmental impact of the contemplated mining activities.

If the use of explosives materials is required for execution of mineral exploration or mining activities, an Application for General Permit for Use, Consumption and Storage of Explosive ("GPCSE”) is required to be filed at the offices of the Secretariat of National Defense ("SEDENA”) under the guidelines of the Federal Explosives and Firearms Act. Under the Mining Law, holders of mining concessions in Mexico have the right to the use of the water coming from the mining works. Certification of water rights and/or issuance of water rights concessions are required from CONAGUA under the guidelines of the National Waters Act.

Fees or Bonding Requirements Necessary To Explore or Mine

As a pre-requisite for issuance of a CSUP, Article 118 of the Federal Sustainable Forestry Development Act provides the posting of a bond to the Mexican Forestry Fund for remediation, restoration and reforestation of the areas impacted by the mineral exploration activities.

As a pre-requisite for approval of Preventive Exploration Notice and Environmental Impact Assessment Study, the Federal Environmental Protection and Ecological Equilibrium Act and its Regulations require the posting of a bond to guarantee remediation and rehabilitation of the areas impacted by the mining activities.

Government Agencies Responsible For Any Applicable Permits

SEMARNAT is the office of the Federal Government of Mexico responsible for the review and issuance of a CSUP, the review of a Technical Justification Study and the filing of NOM-120. The Federal Attorney’s Office for the protection of the Environment is the enforcement branch of SEMARNAT responsible for the monitoring and enforcement of environmental laws and regulations. SEDENA is the office responsible for issuance of a GPCSE. CONAGUA is the office responsible for certification of water rights and issuance of water rights concessions.


Time Frame to Obtain Any Permit or Approval To Explore or Mine

 

NOM-120 is a notice to SEMARNAT only and has no prescribed processing time. Processing time for review and approval of a CSUP Application and Technical Justification Study varies depending on the workload of the SEMARNAT regional office where the application is filed, but a processing time of four months is typical.

Processing time for review and approval of an Environmental Impact Assessment Study varies depending on the workload of the SEMARNAT regional office where the application is filed, but a processing time of six months is typical. Processing time for issuance of a GPCSE by SEDENA is approximately six months. Processing time for issuance of a Water Rights Concession by CONAGUA is approximately six months.


DynaMéxico Permits and Bonding Requirements

Exploration Permit: On June 28, 2010, DynaMéxico filed a Preventive Exploration Notice (“Preventive Exploration Notice”) at the office of SEMARNAT in connection with contemplated mineral exploration activities at the La Prieta, San Pablo, La Purísima, La Unión, Tres Amigos and La Ceceña areas of the SJG mine. On July 21, 2010, SEMARNAT approved, for a term of 36 months, the execution of the mineral exploration activities at the SJG mine set out in the Preventive Exploration Notice, as it determined that such activities fall within the framework of the NOM-120, subject to the following conditions: (a) filing and approval by SEMARNAT of a CSUP with respect to the SJG mine (see below), and (b) posting of a bond in the amount of $134,487 Pesos to guarantee remediation and rehabilitation measures following the conclusion of the mineral exploration activities.

Change of Soil Use Permit

On August 9, 2010, DynaMéxico filed at the offices of SEMARNAT a CSUP Application and Technical Justification Study to carry out certain mineral exploration activities set out in the Preventive Exploration Notice approved by SEMARNAT on July 21, 2010 (see above) at the La Prieta, San Pablo, La Purísima, La Unión, Tres Amigos and La Ceceña areas of the SJG mine). On December 20, 2010, SEMARNAT approved the CSUP Application filed by DynaMéxico with respect to the SJG mine and authorized the execution of mineral exploration activities by DynaMéxico on 5,463 hectares of the SJG mine for a term of 36 months, and it is continually renewed as required.

Water Rights Certification

On March 8, 2012 the Director of Water Administration of CONAGUA certified in writing the rights of DynaMéxico to use, exploit and extract 1,000,000 cubic meters of water per year from the Company’s extraction infrastructure located at the SJG mine. CONAGUA determined that DynaMéxico’s water rights are not subject to any other water rights concession or any other water extraction restriction.

Bonding Requirements

Under the CSUP issued to DynaMéxico on December 20, 2010, SEMARNAT imposed upon DynaMéxico the obligation to post a bond in the amount of $116,911 Pesos for reforestation and remediation measures at the SJG mine. The Company maintains a greenhouse of 10,000 trees which are used in the reforestation efforts as necessary.

Under the Preventive Exploration Notice, SEMARNAT imposed upon and DynaMéxico complied with, the obligation to post a bond in the amount of $134,487 Pesos, to guarantee remediation and rehabilitation measures following the conclusion of the mineral exploration activities. As required by generally accepted accounting principals generally in the United States (“GAAP”) the Company also has an asset retirement obligation recorded as of December 31, 2025 for the net present value of the cost to dismantle and dispose the plant and remove the tailings pond at the SJG mine.

DynaMéxico has sought and obtained all required environmental permits, temporary land occupation rights and consent letters from the regulatory agencies, local municipalities and the State of Sinaloa, in order to conduct its mining, production, exploration and drilling activities on the four main deposit areas at the SJG mine. DynaMéxico will be required to obtain further permits in order to conduct drilling in these four areas and the other areas, and in order to carry out future mining, milling, and production activities, and will timely obtain such permits, as and when required.

HISTORY OF SAN JOSE DE GRACIA

Historical production at San José de Gracia dates from the 1800’s and totals approximately one million ounces of gold mined from high-grade quartz veins. Large-scale mining in the camp began in 1870 and ended in 1910 with the onset of the Mexican Revolution. The majority of the production came from the Anglo, Rosario and La Cruz Mines on the Purisima Ridge trend, and from the La Prieta Mine on the La Prieta trend (reference Fig. 2). The remainder of the production was derived from as many as 60 smaller mines throughout the 12 square kilometer area, including the Palos Chinos, San Pablo, Tres Amigos, La Ceceña, Los Hilos, Santa Rosa, Veta Tierra, La Union, Santa Eduwiges, La Mochomera and La Parilla Mines.

It was not until the 1970’s when mining could resume at the SJG mine, when the first road to the SJG mine was opened, allowing Compañia Rosarito to begin producing gold from the Palos Chinos, San Pablo, Tres Amigos and La Union mines.

Recent Ownership of the Property

By 1977, the underlying owners of the mining concessions and subsequent vendors to Minera Finisterre SA de CV. (“Finisterre”) succeeded in acquiring control of most of the district, and installed a 70 ton per day flotation concentrator. Finisterre subsequently acquired the property through option agreements with the underlying vendors and continued some exploration work, although most of its financial resources were expended in erecting a larger, 200 ton per day concentrator.

Golden Hemlock Explorations Ltd., a Canadian company, obtained an option to acquire majority control of Finisterre and commenced work on the property in 1997. The actual exploration and development work was performed by Perforaciones Quest de Mexico (“PQM”), which was under contract to Finisterre, and whose efforts consisted primarily of core drilling, trenching and mapping. PQM completed a 63-hole, 6,000-meter core drilling program in 1997.

In 1998-1999, Pamicon Developments Ltd., a Canadian company, examined the results of the 1997 drilling program, including PQM’s technical work, in order to calculate possible mineral reserves, and to review the general status of the property.

 

During the first half of 1999, DynaResource and its agents arranged to collect samples for metallurgical testing. In June of 2000, DynaResource formed its subsidiary DynaMexico, in order to acquire and consolidate ownership of the SJG mine. By December 2003, DynaMexico had completed the acquisition of and consolidation of 100% of the SJG mine from Golden Hemlock and Finisterre - with the sole exception of the San Miguel mining concession.

ACCESSIBILITY, CLIMATE, LOCAL RESOURCES, INFRASTRUCTURE AND PHYSIOGRAPHY

Table of Contents

 

Topography, Physiography, and Vegetation

The topography of the San José de Gracia district is generally rugged with elevations varying from 400 meters in the valley bottoms to over 1600 meters in the higher Sierra. A network of small roads and tracks winds around areas nearer the old workings at San José de Gracia. Access to the remainder of the large property at the current stage of development is difficult without the use of horse or helicopter.

The SJG mine can be accessed by road, from either the City of Culiacán or the City of Guamuchil. Either route goes through the small town of Sinaloa de Leyva, then from Sinaloa de Leyva by gravel mountainous road to the village of San José de Gracia (population 750), which covers approximately 90 kilometers and is roughly a five-hour trip.

The SJG mine can also be accessed by air. A gravel airstrip is located adjacent to San Jose de Gracia. The airstrip is suitable for light aircraft and charter flights of 45 minutes duration are available from the cities of Los Mochis or Culiacán. Much of the labor for mining and production activities of DynaMéxico is provided by the local community of San José de Gracia.

Climate and Operating Season

 

The climate is semi-tropical with a rainy season dominating June and July. For some activities on the SJG mine, operations may be suspended during the rainy season.

EXPLORATION

DynaResource uses a multiple phase method of exploration. The initial activity consists of surface mapping and sampling to identify areas of interest. The next phase is detailed mapping and systematic sampling. Mapping and sampling of mine workings are also performed to define potential areas for future work. Geological mapping and samples have been collected in the past and sent for laboratory analysis by the Company. The prospects are then catalogued and prioritized for drilling.

Exploration and Drilling Protocol

The Company’s internal controls are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information and processes utilized in assessing its exploration results and resource estimates are reasonable and in line with industry best practices. These internal controls include quality assurance and quality control (“QA/QC”) in the collection, analysis, verification, storage, reporting and use of drillhole, assay, metallurgical and other technical and scientific information, including the following internal control protocols in place for exploration data:

1.
Written procedures and guidelines to support preferred sampling methods and approaches, with periodic compliance reviews of adherence to such written procedures and guidelines;
2.
Maintenance of a complete chain-of-custody, ensuring the traceability and integrity of the samples at all handling stages from collection, transportation, sample preparation and analysis to long-term sample storage;
3.
Geological logs are checked and verified, and there is a physical sign-off to attest to the validation protocol required;
4.
Quality control checks on collar and downhole survey data for errors or significant deviations;
5.
Third-party fully certified labs are used for assays used in public disclosure or resource models;
6.
Appropriate types of quality control samples are inserted into the sample stream at appropriate frequencies to assess analytical data quality;
7.
Regular inspection of analytical and sample preparation facilities by appropriately experienced personnel;
8.
QA/QC data are regularly verified to ensure that outliers, sample mix-ups, contamination, or laboratory biases during the sample preparation and analysis steps are correctly identified, mitigated or remediated. Changes to database entries are required to be documented; and
9.
Database upload and verification procedures to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the data being entered into the project database. These are typically performed using software data-checking routines. Changes to database entries are required to be documented. Data are subject to regular backups.

EXPLORATION PLANS FOR 2026

31


Table of Contents

 

The Company plans to continue its exploration drilling program, supported by ongoing underground geological mapping to refine structural interpretations of the SJG mine. Exploration priorities and timing will be determined by available capital, drilling results, corporate strategy, and market conditions, with data interpretation conducted by a “Qualified Person” within the meaning of S-K 1300 to support formal mineral resource analysis.

 

From time to time, the Company becomes involved in legal matters in the ordinary course of its business. The Company intends to defend itself vigorously against any such claims. It is the Company’s policy to accrue for amounts related to lawsuits brought against it if it is probable that a liability has been incurred and an amount can be reasonably estimated. Although the outcome of such matters cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company believes that the outcome of those ordinary-course matters in which it is currently involved will not have a material adverse effect on its results of operations, liquidity, or financial position.

DynaMexico Tax Re-assessment

On March 3, 2025, the Mexican tax authority, Servicio de Administración Tributaria ("SAT”), issued a reassessment for the 2021 tax year of DynaMexico asserting an aggregate adjustment totaling approximately $19 million USD ($368 million MXN), inclusive of inflationary adjustments, surcharges, interest, and penalties, arising from a combination of tax basis adjustments, expense deductibility matters, mining duties, including mining concession fees, and related items. Among other things, the Company believes that certain aspects of the reassessment do not appropriately reflect the application of an arm’s length transfer pricing methodology in connection with intercompany management fees.

On March 28, 2025, the Company submitted a request for a Conclusive Agreement (Acuerdo Conclusivo) with SAT through the Mexican Taxpayer Ombudsman, Procuraduría de la Defensa del Contribuyente ("Prodecon”), seeking to resolve the reassessment through an administrative dispute-resolution process.

 

Based on the most recent correspondence issued by SAT through Prodecon in January 2026, approximately $5.7 million USD ($112 million MXN) of the originally assessed amount has been successfully defended or otherwise resolved. The remaining $13.3 million USD ($256 million MXN) continues to be under review within the Conclusive Agreement process. The matters still under review primarily relate to the tax treatment of certain deposits, expense deductibility, mining duties, and the associated inflationary adjustments, surcharges, and penalties.

 

The Company continues to cooperate fully with SAT and Prodecon and is actively pursuing resolution of the remaining matters. While the ultimate outcome cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes that the reassessment amount will be further reduced through the ongoing administrative process.

 

During the course of its review, the Company identified previously unrecorded obligations related to Special and Extraordinary Mining Duties for fiscal years 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024. As a result, a liability of $3 million USD has been recognized in the consolidated financial statements to reflect the Company’s current estimate of the amount owed in respect of these items. See Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements.

Title of Properties

On July 17, 2025, the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) authorized Company management to commence a legal process under Mexican law referred to as "amparo” in order to protect the Company’s rights with respect to the following nine mining concessions (the "Impacted Concessions”) related to the SJG mine:

During a review by the Company’s executive management of information related to the Company’s mining concessions, the Company became aware that a public website hosted by the Mexican Secretariat of Economy (Secretaría de Economía) (the "Website”) includes information indicating that the Impacted Concessions are not currently active. Although the Website also indicates that the published information is for informational purposes only and that such information is not officially valid, and the Company has not received any formal notification from any Mexican authority asserting adverse action that could result in the nullification or cancellation of the rights under any of the Impacted Concessions, the Board determined it prudent, as a precautionary measure, to authorize the Company to commence the amparo process to challenge the inactive status of the Impacted Concessions indicated on the Website and any related administrative action(s) taken in violation of the Company’s due process rights.

Notwithstanding the information on the Website, the Company has continued to comply with all obligations required under applicable Mexican law to maintain its concessions in good standing, and all corresponding payments have been duly made and accepted without objection by the applicable authorities.

 

The Company continues to review information available to it and intends to take appropriate action to protect its rights to the Impacted Concessions; however, no assurance can be provided regarding the outcome of its actions or the availability of the Impacted Concessions to the Company in the future.

Environmental Fine and Installment Arrangement

On July 19, 2024, the Federal Attorney for Environmental Protection (“PROFEPA”) issued a resolution determining a fine of MXN $8,251,320 against DynaMexico, in connection with alleged irregularities in the construction and operation of the tailings dam and related facilities at the SJG mine. The Company filed a nullity trial before the Federal Court of Administrative Justice, and on May 28, 2025, obtained a suspension of enforcement of the fine. The Company continues to contest the PROFEPA assessment through all available legal remedies.

On September 11, 2025, the Mexican tax authority (“SAT”) notified the Company of the updated fine amount of MXN $8.7 million, inclusive of adjustments. Pursuant to a Board resolution dated October 6, 2025, the Company authorized DynaMexico to enter into an installment arrangement with SAT, requiring a 20% upfront payment and the balance to be paid over thirty-six (36) monthly installments. The total cost under the plan is approximately MXN $9.57 million, including principal of MXN $6.98 million and interest.

The Company expressly reserves its right to continue contesting the underlying PROFEPA fine and, if successful, to seek recovery of amounts paid under the SAT arrangement.

ITEM 4. MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES

The information concerning mine safety violations or other regulatory matters required by Section 1503(a) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and Item 104 of Regulation S-K is not applicable to the Company because its mining operations are conducted exclusively in Mexico through its subsidiary DynaMéxico, and are not subject to regulation by the Federal Mine Safety and Health Administration under the Federal Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Company

The Company is a minerals investment, production, and exploration company, currently advancing its high-grade SJG mine in Mexico through its operating subsidiary, DynaMéxico. Activities are focused on exploration, technical evaluation, and project development aimed at expanding the mineral resource base.

The Company conducts operations in Mexico through its wholly-owned subsidiary, DynaMéxico. As of the date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, the Company owns 100% of the outstanding shares of DynaMéxico, which in turn claims an ownership interest in the mining concessions, equipment, camp, and related facilities which comprise the SJG mine.

In addition to advancing the SJG mine, the Company has also focused on strengthening its corporate governance practices, with the objective of meeting the listing requirements of additional stock exchanges in the United States and/or Canada.

Project Improvements, Expansion and Increased Output

 

Since 2015, the Company has carried out limited site-scale processing and operational activities at the SJG mine to support its exploration and evaluation programs. These activities have been directed toward enhancing the technical understanding of the deposit, optimizing on-site infrastructure, and advancing project development. In 2022, the Company expanded its exploration efforts at the SJG mine with the objective of increasing its mineral resource base, primarily targeting gold mineralization.

From initial small-scale operations averaging 100 tons per 24-hour operating day in 2015, throughput has steadily increased, reaching an average of approximately 700 tons per day in 2025. In 2023 alone, daily processing volumes rose by 30%, from 550 tons to 700 tons per day.

In 2026, the Company expects to operate at an average daily throughput of approximately 800 tons per day, representing management’s target operating rate assuming approximately 90% availability. The processing facility has a maximum instantaneous throughput capacity of approximately 900 tons per day.

 

SJG Mine TRS

As discussed above, on May 20, 2025, the Company filed with the SEC the TRS for the SJG mine in Sinaloa, Mexico. The TRS includes the Company’s initial Mineral Reserve Estimate, which outlines a high-grade Proven and Probable Mineral Reserve of 250,000 gold ozs for the SJG mine. This initial Mineral Reserve Estimate and TRS was prepared by the independent firm P&E Mining Consultants Inc (“P&E”), and process plant review and operations aspects by D.E.N.M. Engineering Ltd.

Highlights Include:

Proven & Probable Mineral Reserves of 1,607 k tonnes at 4.91 g/t gold, totaling 253,000 gold ounces (see Table 1).
Indicated Mineral Resource of 286 k tonnes at 6.74 g/t gold and Inferred Mineral Resource of 97 k tonnes at 4.37 g/t gold. (see Table 2).
Life of Mine of 7-years based on current Mineral Reserves with excellent potential to extend along strike and adjacent to the existing underground mine infrastructure and in the wider SJG mine property.
After-tax net present value (“NPV”) of the SJG mine is estimated at $84.4 million ($110.0 million pre-tax) under baseline scenarios of 5% discount rate and $2,500/oz Au. At a $3,000/oz gold price the after-tax NPV is estimated at $133.3 million ($183.6 million pre-tax).
An Operating Cash Cost of $1,327 (US$/oz Au Eq) and an All-in Sustaining Cost of $1,720 (US$/oz Au Eq).
Significant Upside - Gold price sensitivity with conservative pricing assumption ($2,500 oz Au ~25% below current spot gold price) used in the TRS.
Growth Potential – Mineral Reserves / Mineral Resources defined for only three of the mineralized structures in the SJG mine property, which historically hosted mining on a total of 20 discrete mineralized structures.

Notes:

1.
Mineral Reserves are based on Measured and Indicated Mineral Resource Classifications only.
2.
Mineral Reserves are reported using the 2014 CIM Definition Standards and 2019 Best Practices Guidelines and have an effective date of March 24, 2025.
3.
Mineral Reserves are defined within mine plans and incorporate mining dilution and ore losses.
4.
Underground Mineral Reserves are based on metal price of US$2,500/oz Au and are constrained within a mine design, and use process plant recoveries varying between 76-80% for Au
5.
An Underground economic cut-off value of US$140/t is estimated to differentiate ore from waste and is based on cost assumptions of US$99/t for mining US$23/t processing, and US$18/t site general and administrative. Mineralized material above a cut-off of $90/t that is planned to be mined adjacent to economic material is identified as Marginal ore, as the revenue it generates exceeds the additional costs associated with haulage, processing and backfilling the material versus leaving it in the stope as backfill.
6.
Smelter terms result in an average value paid per ounce of gold of 90.53% of the value of the gold in concentrate, after accounting for all contract terms.
7.
The provided LOM block models do not track deleterious elements noted in the smelter terms, which could reduce the payable value of the concentrate. However, DynaResource asserts that no penalties of this nature have historically been assessed on any payment invoice from the existing concentrate buyer.
8.
Totals may not sum due to rounding.
9.
Mineral Reserves derived from marginal material total 312 kt at 2.03 g/t Au for a total contained metal content of 20.3 koz.

Notes:

1.
The estimate of Mineral Resources may be materially affected by environmental, permitting, legal, title, taxation, socio-political, marketing, or other relevant issues.
2.
The Inferred Mineral Resource in this estimate has a lower level of confidence than that applied to an Indicated Mineral Resource and must not be converted to a Mineral Reserve. It can be reasonably expected that the majority of the Inferred Mineral Resource could be upgraded to an Indicated Mineral Resource with continued exploration.
3.
The Mineral Resource is estimated using S-K 1300.

(1) Gold concentrate sold during the period is not equal to gold concentrate produced during the period due to timing of shipments to buyer, and due to buyer’s payability discount for the purchase of gold concentrate, and due to any adjustment from dry weight and assay in provisional settlements with the final assays.

Mill feed grades and recovery rates are based on internal estimates derived from assay data and estimated weights of material processed.

The drop in the feed grade at the processing facility is a result of the planned reduction of certain high-grade zones in accordance with the SJG mine plan, as well as higher dilution experienced in the processed material. The increase in processed tonnage at the SJG mine also contributed to lower grades ore being treated. To support throughput, the Company opened a new development area at San Pablo during the fourth quarter of 2023, and an additional target zone, La Mochomera, in May 2024, which is expected to yield higher-grade material at depth.

 

 

2025 HIGHLIGHTS

Operational Performance Overview

During Q4 2025, the Company continued to advance the optimization program at the SJG mine. This program is focused on increasing process plant throughput and recoveries, improving maintenance and equipment utilization, and ultimately enhancing operational efficiencies and profit margins at the SJG mine.

Operational results for Q4 2025 showed improved performance across several critical operational metrics (particularly in costs) due to the ongoing optimization program. The average underground development was 1,057 meters per month in Q4 2025 (1,267 in Q3 2025), compared to 383 meters per month in Q4 2024. This increase allowed the SJG mine to access over 20 production stopes. Expanded development work also led to the discovery of two new mineralized veins – one at the Tres Amigos mine (named Victoria) and one at La Mochomera (named 532) which are currently being mined as additional high-grade ore sources. Process plant reliability also improved. Electrical refurbishment and preventative maintenance programs resulted in ball mill availability averaging 96% for Q4 2025 compared to 94% Q3 2025.

A construction work program to establish a primary gravity gold circuit with the installation of three new Falcon gravity concentrators (the “Falcon” units) was completed in Q3 2025 with commissioning completed in early Q4 2025. These Falcon units were installed after the ball mills to recover the significant portion of free gold available in the San Pablo, San Pablo Sur and La Mochomera deposits. In addition, the process plant at the SJG mine has another Falcon unit already installed on the tailings circuit. The aim of the installation of these Falcon units is to boost gold recoveries improving operational efficiency and SJG mine’s economics, especially in the current higher priced gold environment.

Milled ore for Q4 2025 was 65,275 tons (approximately 710 tons per day), a 4% increase from the Q3 2025 production average of 682 tons per day. With the current high ball mill availability, the Company is evaluating cost-effective strategies to utilize additional processing capacity of approximately 100 tons per day. Gold metal recoveries for the quarter averaged 75.69%, an increase from the 73% gold recovery achieved in Q3 2025, primarily due to the installation and commissioning of the Falcon units.

During Q4 2025, metal production totaled 1,633 ounces of gold in October, 1,615 ounces in November, and 1,832 ounces in December. Total metal production for Q4 2025 was 5,080 ounces of gold, above Q3 2025 production of 4,830 ounces. The average gold feed grade was 3.20 g/t for Q4 2025, and for the full year 2025, the average gold feed grade was 3.46 g/t.

Mine development for Q4 2025 was on budget with 3,172 meters of development completed, compared to 3,013 meters in Q3 2025. The completion of new development drifts enabled the Company to maintain more than 20 stopes in production by the end of the quarter and the end of the year. This additional mining flexibility is expected to positively impact ore tonnage and grades in the coming months in 2026. The Company has also completed a capital works program to enhance mine ventilation across all three mines which included connecting the La Mochomera and San Pablo Sur mines which has had an immediate impact on the working environment. Improved ventilation time has resulted in an improvement in working conditions and faster re-entry times following blasting activities. Planning for a central Raise Bore ventilation shaft was cancelled due to unfavorable geotechnical conditions and this planned ventilation location was moved to Palos Chinos. This capital works program will involve approximately 100 meters of decline development which, in addition to helping ventilation will bring mine development closer to the Purisima historical works. Numerous exploration targets have been identified in this southern area of the mineral field. This ventilation development will also be a platform for underground exploration.

 

Detailed activities from the four main deposits include:

Tres Amigos

Original mine planning at Tres Amigos anticipated closure by the end of Q1 2025. However, geological reinterpretations and targeted short exploration drifts identified two additional mineralized structures – the Victoria and Alexa veins – located within 40 meters of existing underground infrastructure.

To date approximately 40,000 tons of high-grade ore have been extracted from this high-grade structure. In addition, a new ore drive was completed on the upper levels of the Tres Amigos North Zone which is an area well known for free gold occurrences, providing access to a new high-grade ore face. Mining from this area in Tres Amigos totaled 17,000 tons contributing to Q4 2025 production and is expected to continue throughout 2026. This new access will also enable future diamond drilling to test the north and south extensions of the deposit, with the goal of increasing inventory.

San Pablo Viejo and San Pablo Sur

Throughout Q4 2025, the Company continued mining multiple faces at the San Pablo deposit while advancing development toward the deeper southern extensions.

San Pablo Viejo and San Pablo Sur are expected to remain the primary sources of gold production through 2026 and 2027, with additional upside potential beyond that horizon. Particularly promising is the South Extension at the 500 level, which could yield high-grade (“Bonanza”-style) gold mineralization in the short to mid-term. Ongoing development efforts are positioning the mine for continued growth, including expansion deeper into the La Mochomera vein system.

La Mochomera

The La Mochomera vein is expected to be a significant source of gold production in 2026 and 2027, with especially promising high-grade potential at depth. During Q1 2025, development activities intersected a previously unrecognized high-grade mineralized structure, now designated as the “532 Vein”. The significance and potential of this new discovery are currently being evaluated with approximately 3,000 tons of high-grade material extracted from this vein.

 

Palos Chinos

Palos Chinos is an ore body which the Company exposed in January 2025 from the La Mochomera underground infrastructure with the first ore being extracted in January 2025. By the end of Q4 2025, the Company had completed 4 development levels on this vein and mined 3,500 tons of ore. In 2026, this ore body will be an important source of high-grade ore.

Results for the Years Ended December 31, 2025 and 2024

REVENUE: Revenue increased approximately 26% to $58,467,565 for the year ended December 31, 2025 from $46,503,016 for the year ended December 31, 2024. This was primarily due to an increase in net revenue per ounce from $2,113 to $2,804, partially offset by a decrease in gold ounces sold.

OPERATING COSTS: Operating costs for the year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 were $40,223,275 and $47,898,208, respectively. The cost decrease for year ended December 31, 2025 reflected $9.0 million in capitalized mine development costs, and $2.6 million in property, plant and equipment incurred beginning January 2025 following the issuance of the Company’s Maiden Mineral Reserve Estimate under Reg. S-K 1300 and the resulting change to the Company’s capitalization policies. These costs were expensed as operating costs during 2024.

DEPRECIATION AND DEPLETION: Depreciation and depletion expense for the year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 were $964,295 and $Nil, respectively. With the Company’s transition from Exploration Stage to Production Stage under S-K 1300, the Company began capitalizing mine development costs and commenced depreciation and depletion charges on a units-of- production basis.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES: General and administrative expenses for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 were $6,192,509 and $4,157,425 respectively. These general and administrative expenses represent costs incurred in operating the Company that are not directly related to site-based processing or exploration activities, and include management, accounting, and legal expenses. Increases to general and administrative expenses in 2025 primarily relate to an increase in consulting and professional fees related to the Company’s legal matters, together with increased bonus expense.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION EXPENSE: Stock-based compensation expense was $1,249,459 and $1,219,062 for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively and was related to the vesting of restricted stock awards issued in 2024 combined with shares awarded in 2025.

 

ACCRETION EXPENSE: Accretion expense for the year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 was $42,004 and $18,260, respectively. The Company began accreting its asset retirement obligation (“ARO”) on January 1, 2024, related to estimated costs to decommission the milling plant and tailings pond at the estimated life of the mines in operation at the establishment of the ARO in 2023 as a result of the expansion of the milling operation.

OTHER EXPENSE: Other income (expense) for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 was $471,590 and $1,247,352 respectively. Included in 2025 was interest expense of $1,613,836, mark-to-market loss on the derivative liability of $356,863, currency translation gain of $5,139,258, and other expense of $3,640,149. Included in 2024 was interest expense of $1,696,258, mark-to-market gain on the derivative liability of $905,174, currency translation loss of $506,439 and other income of $50,171.

OTHER COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (LOSS): Comprehensive income (loss) includes the Company’s net income (loss) plus the unrealized foreign currency translation gain for the period. The Company’s other comprehensive loss for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 consisted of unrealized foreign currency translation gains (losses) of $(8,531,837) and $(2,486,399), respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had negative working capital of $31,735,708, a decrease of $13,383,323 from the working capital maintained by the Company of negative $18,352,385, as of December 31, 2024. The primary reasons for the decrease is related to a decrease in cash related to the Company’s net loss, reclassification of a portion of the Company’s foreign tax receivable to long term and an increase in short term trade liabilities.

Cash from operations for the year ended December 31, 2025 was $5,757,148 compared to net cash used of $8,014,004 during the year ended December 31, 2024. The improvement in the cash flow from operations was primarily attributable to the Company’s income generated in 2025, driven by increased revenue and lower mine operating costs.

 

Cash used in investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2025 totaled $11,526,369 compared to $6,755 during the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase reflected $9.03 million in capitalized mine development costs incurred beginning January

2025 following the issuance of the Company’s Initial Mineral Reserve Estimate under S-K 1300 and the resulting change to the Company’s capitalization policies.

 

Cash provided by financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 was $5,059,294 and $8,495,282, respectively. The net cash provided by financing activities during the year ended December 31, 2025 came from $17,650,000 of advances from the company’s Revolving Credit Line ("RCL”) offset by $12,500,000 in payments on the RCL and $90,706 in operating lease payments.

 

Through December 31, 2025, the Company’s available liquidity and operations have been financed primarily through its operations and the revenue generated from the sale of product. The revenue from operations was supplemented by proceeds from the sale of common stock and customer advances as well as the cash flow from operations. Although the Company has incurred net losses and net cash outflows from operating activities and investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2025, there were many expenses which were made that were not expended for the production of revenue, such as exploration drilling and mine expansion costs. If these expenses had not been made, the Company’s net loss would have been minimized. The Company believes its revenue will be greater due to material being mined from the additional mine opened and improvements made to the productivity of the milling activities. Future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including the Company’s rate of mining, milling and exploration activities and growth. To the extent that existing capital and revenue growth are not sufficient to fund future activities, the Company may need to raise capital through additional equity or debt financing. Additional funds may not be available on terms favorable to the Company or at all. Failure to raise additional capital, if needed, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of December 31, 2025, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements, which have or are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.

Capital Expenditures

 

Primary capital expenditures in 2025 have been directed toward increasing underground infrastructure development and enhancing processing capacity at the SJG mine. Average underground capitalized development in Q4 2025 was 1,267 meters per month, compared to 380 meters per month in 2024. Processing systems have been upgraded through the installation of new Falcon units and the repurposing of the original grinding mill. Additional equipment acquisitions and infrastructure improvements have also enhanced site access and operational capacity. Effective January 1, 2025, capital expenditures are capitalized in accordance with S-K 1300. See Note 3 of the consolidated financial statements. Total capital expenditures in 2025 were $11.5 million.

 

Exploration Activity

The Company continues to invest in exploration spending on near-mine extensions as well as geological studies and reinterpretations. The Company completed a Mineral Resource Estimate under S-K 1300 in the second quarter of 2025 covering San Pablo Sur, San Pablo, La Mochomera and the Tres Amigos ore bodies which includes development proposals for additional exploration of ore veins in the short and mid-term.

The Company expects to start underground mine extension drilling at the start of Q2 2026 and expand exploration to surrounding areas by year-end. Part of this activity will be a re-analysis of the previous surface geophysical surveys. Exploration will focus on growing the known resources and increasing the reserve inventory at the SJG mine.

 

The Company intends to prioritize exploration of high-grade underground targets that can be readily incorporated into the SJG mine plan, as well continue the regional program to better understand the broader potential of the land package associated with the SJG mine. Additionally, planning for deeper and lateral drilling between the San Pablo and Tres Amigos veins has highlighted the potential to extend high-grade underground resources at the SJG mine, especially in areas previously considered discontinuous due to faulting. The Company has identified opportunities to develop San Pablo, San Pablo Sur, La Mochomera, and Tres Amigos exploration potential. At the La Mochomera deposit, the Company plans to explore southward toward the historic Palos Chinos and Purisima mines, which operated over 100 years ago as high-grade producers. Of note is the Palos Chinos exploration target, located within 40 meters of the existing La Mochomera mine infrastructure.

In June 2025, the Company provided an update on exploration activities at the SJG mine. This update included the preliminary identification of two potential high-grade mineralized zones situated adjacent to existing mine infrastructure. These zones are currently under evaluation for future exploration and development potential.

Note: Assay results referenced in this Annual Report on Form 10-K are based on internal laboratory analyses conducted at the SJG mine plant. They have not been verified by an independent third-party laboratory and do not conform to disclosure standards such as S-K 1300 or NI 43-101.

Over the past year, the Company has been compiling and interpreting geological, geochemical, geophysical, and historical mining data to support an exploration diamond drilling program planned for Q2/2026. This review has led to the identification of the Victoria zone, a previously undocumented mineralized structure located approximately 40 meters from the upper-level development at the Tres Amigos mine (see Figures 1 and 2). Similarly, analysis of historical workings mining activity has highlighted the potential of the Palos Chinos zone, situated near active workings at La Mochomera (see Figure 3). Both zones are undergoing early-stage evaluation through exploration drifting, geological mapping, channel sampling, and internal bulk sampling. Material is being processed at the SJG mine plant to assess mineralization, metallurgy, and gold recovery characteristics.

 

Victoria Target (Tres Amigos Mine Area)

Geological and structural analysis at the Tres Amigos working face has led to the identification of an exploration target in the previously underexplored hanging wall of the Tres Amigos vein system. Subsequent development drifting toward this target has resulted in the discovery of a previously undocumented mineralized vein approximately 1.5 meters in width (see Figure 3). To date, a total of 110 meters of drifting has been completed on two sublevels (550 and 540 levels, spaced 10 meters apart), alongside the collection and analysis of 1,069 channel samples. In addition, the Company has mined and processed a bulk sample of approximately 10,000 tonnes, with internal assay results indicating an estimated average grade of 8 grams per tonne gold. Based on the current exploration work, the Victoria zone is considered to have a conceptual exploration target of approximately 100,000 tonnes grading between 7 and 8 grams per tonne gold, representing a potential of ~25,000 ounces of contained gold.

 

Note: The potential quantity and grade of the Victoria target are conceptual in nature. There has been insufficient exploration to define a mineral resource, and it is uncertain if further work will result in the delineation of a mineral resource.

Palos Chinos

Exploration drifting toward the historical Palos Chinos vein system has advanced to approximately 70 meters from current mine workings. Observations from this development, combined with historical mapping from 1999-2000, suggest a second near-infrastructure exploration target. Preliminary evaluation indicates a conceptual exploration target of approximately 90,000 tonnes grading 5 to 6 g/t per tonne gold, representing a potential of ~15,000 ounces of contained gold.

Cautionary Statement: The potential quantity and grade of the Palos Chinos target are conceptual in nature. There has been insufficient exploration to define a mineral resource, and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the delineation of a mineral resource.

The ongoing exploration drifts have encountered minor disseminated mineralized structures within the footwall of the Palos Chinos structure, supporting the potential for additional mineralization along the trend (see Figure 3).

Detailed mapping and sampling conducted in 1999 and 2000 across multiple levels of the historical Palos Chinos workings confirmed that the mined-out section of the Palos Chinos vein generally averages between 1.0 and 1.5 meters in thickness, with a steep westerly dip ranging from 60° to 80°. Along strike, several mineralized shoots were identified, displaying key structural and mineralogical characteristics, including:

• A shift in strike orientation from south to southeast;

• A localized shallowing of dip angles between 35° to 40°;

• Vein thickening to between 2 and 4 meters;

• Increased development of chlorite-rich stockwork adjacent to the vein;

• Elevated gold grades, including individual samples grading up to 92.5 g/t Au over 0.7 meters; and

• A mineralized shoot transect averaging 7.6 g/t Au over 7.6 meters, including 13.4 g/t Au over 3.4 meters within the main Palos Chinos vein (see Table 1).

In total, 180 samples were collected along the Palos Chinos trend from both surface exposures and underground workings. Of these, 74 samples were taken directly from the Palos Chinos vein and adjacent mineralized hanging wall and footwall zones. Based on this dataset, the Palos Chinos vein returned an average grade of 11.4 g/t Au over an average width of 1.2 meters. Additionally, mining above the Palos Chinos level exposed a parallel, laterally continuous hanging wall vein located approximately 4 to 5 meters above the main structure. Three samples collected from this vein returned gold grades ranging from 11.3 to 18.5 g/t Au and also contained notable concentrates of copper, with localized lead and zinc values over narrow widths. A summary of significant historical assay results from the Palos Chinos vein is provided in Table 1.

The reported average vein thickness of 1.2 meters is derived from the mean of all individual sample interval widths and does not reflect the full extent of the historically mined zone between the Palos Chinos and Saramiento levels. To determine the broader mineralized envelope, a representative channel potential sample transect spanning the interval between the Palos Chinos vein and a parallel hanging wall structure returned an average of 7.4 g/t Au over 7.6 meters (see Table 1). These results indicate that portions of the Palos Chinos trend may exhibit sufficient thickness, grade continuity, and structural geometry to be amenable to mechanized mining, subject to further drilling, geotechnical evaluation, and mine planning studies.

OUTLOOK (SJG MINE)

With the development progress achieved in Q4 2025 and the increase in mining faces now available to the Company, management remains confident in the ongoing progress and long-term performance of the SJG mine. The Company’s focus for 2026 is to improve production and grade through the implementation of additional and ongoing operational enhancements and development work.

While the Company made significant headway in 2025, optimization efforts will continue to focus on improving gold ore grades to the mill, throughput rates, and recoveries. San Pablo Sur, San Pablo, La Mochomera, Palos Chinos and the Tres Amigos ore bodies are expected to remain the main contributors to production in the year ahead. Further development in these areas will also be a key focus to access additional high-grade zones and additional mining faces.

The capital works program to add a primary gravity gold circuit to the processing plant involved the installation of three new Falcon units installed downstream of the ball mills to recover the significant portion of the free gold present in the San Pablo, San Pablo Sur, Tres Amigos and La Mochomera deposits. The three new Falcon units are performing as designed recovering approximately 30% of the gold in a specific gravity gold concentrate (average ~300 g/t Au) which achieves a higher payability factor. The target for 2026 is for the process plant to achieve a processing rate between 750 to 800 tpd.

 

A new tailings dam was completed during Q3 2024, with an estimated storage capacity of 670,751 cubic meters, distributed over four stages to accommodate up to three years of additional tailings. The third-stage facility is currently in use, and planning for construction of the fourth stage is underway. The Company has also begun evaluating a potential location for a third tailings storage facility at the SJG mine. These studies include environmental and geotechnical surveys to identify a preferred site.

Plan of Operation

The plan of operation for 2026 includes the continued enhancement of site infrastructure and processing capabilities, along with expanded exploration drilling at the SJG mine. During 2025, the Company processed an average of approximately 700 tons of material per day. For the first two months of 2026 an average of 755 tons of material was milled and the Company anticipates increasing daily processing throughput towards an average of 750 to 800 tons per day. The Company has installed processing capacity of up to 900 tons per day (with three ball mills), with a target rate of achieving an average of 800 tons per day taking into consideration planned maintenance downtime. The Company has continued underground development as part of its exploration activities on additional target areas (Vein 532, Victoria and Palos Chinos structures) which are anticipated to yield higher-grade material for processing. The Company anticipates that a combination of higher-grade feed material, increased processing throughput, and higher gold prices will have the potential to significantly increase revenue in 2026, as part of its ongoing exploration and project optimization efforts.

The Company plans to commence its exploration drilling program from underground in Q2 2026 having already obtained firm quotes from contractors to undertake the work. Ongoing decisions regarding the scope and direction of the program will be guided by drilling results, corporate strategy, market conditions, as well as surface mapping, sampling, and target generation.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Shareholders and Directors of

DynaResource, Inc.

 

 

Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of DynaResource, Inc. (the “Company”), as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, changes in stockholders’ equity (deficiency), and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of DynaResource, Inc. as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, as of December 31, 2025, the Company had negative working capital of $31,735,708, an accumulated deficit of $65,353,966, and for the year ended December 31, 2025, had a net income of $3,817,103. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Basis for Opinion

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

 

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatements of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.


Critical Audit Matters

The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of these critical audit matters do not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

Stage of Production of the San José de Gracia Mine

 

 

As described in Note 3 and Note 5 to the financial statements, the Company filed with the SEC a Technical Report Summary (“TRS”), for the San José de Gracia mine prepared in accordance with the requirements of S-K 1300. The TRS includes the Company’s declaration of mineral reserves and supports the transition from an Exploration Stage issuer to a Production Stage issuer. As a result of the declaration of proven and probable mineral reserves, the Company has revised certain accounting estimates prospectively, including the capitalization of certain development costs, and the commencement of systemic depletion of applicable assets

 

Our audit procedures included the following:

 

Evaluating the appropriateness of management’s estimates, including the reasonability of additions made to the mineral property and the depletion recorded.
Using an auditor expert to evaluate the Technical Report Summary, including the proven and probable reserves at the San José de Gracia mine to support the transition of the mining cycle stage.

 

Deferred Tax Asset

As described in Note 14 to the financial statements, the Company has recognized significant deferred tax assets in respect of unused tax losses. The recovery of the deferred tax assets depends on achieving sufficient taxable profits in the future. Future taxable profits to be used for utilization of tax losses accumulated by the Company mainly represent income from mining operations to be earned by the Company’s main operating subsidiary. The assessment of the potential to utilize the tax losses is dependent on the forecast profitability of the subsidiary. This requires management’s judgment and estimation on key inputs such as expected production, sales volumes, commodity prices, grade and tonnage estimates and operating costs. There is inherent uncertainty involved in forecasting timing and quantum of future taxable profits, which support the extent to which tax assets are recognized. This in turn led to a high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity and effort in performing procedures to evaluate audit evidence relating to the judgments made by management in their taxable profits forecast model.

Our audit procedures included the following:

 

Evaluating the appropriateness of management’s key assumptions and estimates used by management to allocate profit between the Company’s entities, and the likelihood of generating sufficient future taxable profits to support the recognition of deferred tax assets.
Using our in-house tax specialists, to evaluate the appropriateness of the application of relevant tax legislation by the Company, in relation to the utilisation of tax losses.

 

We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2023.

DYNARESOURCE, INC.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

December 31, 2025 and 2024

 

NOTE 1 – NATURE OF ACTIVITIES AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Nature of Activities, History and Organization

 

DynaResource, Inc. (the “Company” or “DynaResource”) was organized September 28, 1937, as a California corporation under the name of West Coast Mines, Inc. In 1998, the Company re-domiciled to Delaware and changed its name to DynaResource, Inc. The Company, including its subsidiaries, is in the business of acquiring, investing in, and developing precious metal properties, and the production of precious metals.

 

As of December 31, 2025 the Company had one wholly owned subsidiary in the United States, DynaMéxico US Holding, LLC (“US Holding”) and four wholly owned subsidiaries in México, DynaResource de México, S.A. de C.V. (“DynaMéxico”), Mineras de DynaResource S.A. de C.V. (“DynaMineras”), DynaResource Operaciones de San Jose De Gracia S.A. de C.V. (“DynaOperaciones”), and Minera de Alica S.A. de C.V., (“DynaAlica”).

 

Although the Company considers the four Mexican subsidiaries to be wholly owned, each has issued one qualifying share to a second shareholder as required under Mexican law, with such qualifying shares held by US Holding. DynaMéxico owns a portfolio of mining concessions that currently comprises its interest in the San José de Gracia mine (“SJG mine”) in northern Sinaloa State, México.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of DynaResource, as well as its wholly-owned subsidiaries DynaMéxico, DynaMineras, DynaOperaciones and DynaAlica. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated. All amounts are presented in U.S. Dollars unless otherwise stated.

 

Significant Accounting Policies

The Company’s management selects accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and adopts methods for their application. The application of accounting principles requires the estimating, matching and timing of revenues and expenses. The accounting policies used conform to GAAP which have been consistently applied in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements.

 

The financial statements and notes are representations of the Company’s management, which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. Management acknowledges that it is solely responsible for adopting sound accounting practices, establishing and maintaining a system of internal accounting controls and preventing and detecting fraud. The Company’s system of internal accounting controls is designed to assure, among other items, that: (1) recorded transactions are valid; (2) valid transactions are recorded; and (3) transactions are recorded in the proper period in a timely manner to produce financial statements which present fairly the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the Company for the respective periods presented.

Basis of Presentation

The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements on the accrual basis of accounting in conformity with GAAP.

 

Going concern

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis that contemplates the realization of assets and discharge of liabilities at their carrying value in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had negative working capital of $31,735,708, an accumulated deficit of $65,353,966, and for the year ended December 31, 2025, had a net income of $3,817,103. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company’s ability to further implement its business plan, raise additional capital as needed from the sales of stock, additional debt financing or debt refinancing as may be required. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments, and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.


Production Stage Issuer

The definitions of Measured mineral resource, Mineral reserve and Mineral resource are set forth in Regulation S-K, Item 1300 ("S-K 1300”).

Measured mineral resource is that part of a mineral resource for which quantity and grade or quality are estimated on the basis of conclusive geological evidence and sampling. The level of geological certainty associated with a measured mineral resource is sufficient to allow a qualified person to apply modifying factors in sufficient detail to support detailed mine planning and final evaluation of the economic viability of the deposit. Because a measured mineral resource has a higher level of confidence than the level of confidence of either an indicated mineral resource or an inferred mineral resource, a measured mineral resource may be converted to a proven mineral reserve or to a probable mineral reserve.

Mineral reserve is an estimate of tonnage and grade or quality of indicated and measured mineral resources that, in the opinion of the qualified person, can be the basis of an economically viable project. More specifically, it is the economically mineable part of a measured or indicated mineral resource, which includes diluting materials and allowances for losses that may occur when the material is mined or extracted.

Mineral resource is a concentration or occurrence of material of economic interest in or on the Earth’s crust in such form, grade or quality, and quantity that there are reasonable prospects for economic extraction. A mineral resource is a reasonable estimate of mineralization, taking into account relevant factors such as cut-off grade, likely mining dimensions, location or continuity, that, with the assumed and justifiable technical and economic conditions, is likely to, in whole or in part, become economically extractable. It is not merely an inventory of all mineralization drilled or sampled.

In accordance with S-K 1300, the SJG mine was classified as an Exploration Stage Property prior to January 1, 2025. This classification was based on the fact that the SJG mine had no Mineral Reserves as defined under S-K 1300. Although the SJG mine engaged in the mining of Mineral Resources and production of gold-silver concentrate, such activities were not sufficient to alter its classification as an Exploration Stage Property.

Effective January 1, 2025, following the completion of a Mineral Reserve estimate in accordance with S-K 1300, the Company transitioned from an Exploration Stage issuer to a Production Stage issuer. In connection with this transition, the Company updated its accounting estimates related to the capitalization of development costs and its depreciation and depletion methodologies. This change is treated as a change in accounting estimate under Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC”) 250, and has been applied prospectively from January 1, 2025.

Segment Information

 

The Company operates as one reportable segment, focused on the exploration, development, production and sale of gold and silver in Mexico.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Cash balances may, at times, exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC”) insurance limits. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had $3,164,645 of deposits in United States banks, and $1,007,246 in Mexico banks. In addition, the Company does not have any cash equivalents as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. The Company reduces this risk by maintaining such deposits at high quality financial institutions that management believes are creditworthy.

Accounts Receivable and Allowances for Doubtful Accounts

Accounts receivable consists of trade receivables which are recorded net of allowance for doubtful accounts for the sale of metal concentrate, as well as net of an embedded derivative based on mark-to-market adjustments for outstanding provisional invoices based on forward metal prices. The allowance for accounts receivable is recorded when receivables are considered to be

60


Table of Contents

 

uncollectible. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, no allowance has been made. As of December 31, 2025 management believes all accounts receivable are fully collectable.

 

Mined Tonnage Inventory

Mined tonnage inventory represents ore mined and stockpiled for further processing. Stockpile quantities are estimated based on tonnes added and removed, contained metals (based on assays), and estimated metallurgical recovery rates. Costs are allocated to stockpiles based on relative values and mining costs. Stockpiles are carried at the lower of average cost or net realizable value, based on estimated future sales prices, less estimated costs to complete production and sale.

Concentrate Inventory

 

Concentrate inventory, consisting of metal concentrates located at the Company facilities or in transit to customers is carried at the lower of production cost or net realizable value, based on current metals prices.

Foreign Tax Receivable

Foreign tax receivable is comprised of recoverable value-added taxes ("IVA”) paid to the Mexican government on goods and services. Under certain circumstances, IVA is recoverable by filing a tax return. Amounts paid are tracked and recognized as receivables until collected.

Proven and Probable Reserves

The definitions of proven and probable mineral reserves are set forth in S-K 1300.

A proven mineral reserve is the economically mineable part of a measured mineral resource. The qualified person reflects a high degree of confidence in the results obtained from the application of modifying factors, as well as in the estimates of tonnage and grade or quality. A proven mineral reserve can only result from the conversion of a measured mineral resource.

A probable mineral reserve is the economically mineable part of an indicated mineral resource and in some cases, a measured mineral resource. The qualified person’s confidence in the modifying factors and in the estimates of tonnage and grade or quality is lower for a probable reserve than for a proven mineral reserve, but still sufficient to demonstrate that extraction is economically viable at the time of recording, based on reasonable investment and market assumptions.

The lower level of confidence associated with a probable reserve arises either from geologic uncertainty when converting an indicated mineral resource or from greater risks related to the modifying factors when converting a measured mineral resource. A qualified person must classify a measured mineral resource as a probable mineral reserve if confidence in the application of the modifying factors is insufficient to support classification as a proven mineral reserve. See Note 3.

Mineral Property Interests, Plant and Equipment and Mine Development Costs

Mineral property interests:

Mineral property interests consist of capitalized expenditures related to the development of mineral properties and mining concessions arising from acquisitions. The amount capitalized represents the fair value of the mineral property and associated mining concessions at the time of acquisition.

Development costs include engineering and metallurgical studies, drilling, and related costs to delineate an ore body, and the construction of access paths and other infrastructure to gain access to the ore body at underground mines. Development costs are expensed as Development and Stripping Costs when incurred until an economically viable deposit has been delineated, at which point such costs are capitalized. Where multiple open pits exist at a mine, pre-stripping costs are capitalized separately for each pit. Production commences when saleable minerals, beyond a de minimis amount, are produced.

During the production phase of a mine, costs incurred to provide access to reserves and resources that will be produced in future periods and that would not have otherwise been accessible are capitalized and included in the carrying value of the related mineral property interest.


When proven and probable mineral reserves exist, development costs are capitalized. Drilling and related costs are capitalized for an ore body where an economically viable deposit exists and the activities are directed at obtaining additional information, providing

61


Table of Contents

 

greater definition of the ore body, or converting non-reserve mineralization to proven and/or probable reserves if the benefit is expected to be realized over a period beyond one year. All other drilling and related costs are expensed as incurred as Exploration or Development and Stripping Costs. Exploration costs include costs incurred to identify new mineral resources, evaluate potential resources, and convert mineral resources into proven and probable mineral reserves. Drilling costs incurred for the purpose of operational ore control during the production stage, rather than for obtaining additional information about the ore body, are allocated to inventory costs and then expensed as a component of production costs applicable to sales once revenue from the sale of inventory is realized.

Mineral property interests are amortized upon commencement of production on a unit-of-production basis over proven and probable mineral reserves. When a property does not contain mineralized material that satisfies the definition of proven and probable reserves, the amortization of the capitalized costs is charged to expense based on the most appropriate method, which includes the straight-line method and the units-of-production method over the total estimated production over the life of the mine, as determined by internal mine plans.

Plant and equipment:

For properties where the Company has established economically viable deposits, expenditures for plant and equipment are capitalized and recorded at cost. The cost capitalized for plant and equipment includes borrowing costs that attributable to qualifying assets. Plant and equipment are depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated productive lives of the assets.

Construction-in-progress costs:

Assets under construction are capitalized as construction-in-progress until the asset is available for its intended use, at which point costs are transferred to the appropriate category of plant and equipment or mineral property interest and amortized. Construction-in-progress costs comprise the purchase price of the asset and any directly attributable costs incurred to bring the asset into working condition for its intended use.

Office furniture and equipment are depreciated using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives ranging from three to five years. Leasehold improvements related to the Company’s corporate office are amortized over the term of the lease, which is 52 months.

For properties where the Company has not established economically viable deposits, substantially all costs, including design, engineering, construction, and installation of equipment, are expensed as incurred unless the equipment has alternative uses, significant salvage value, or probable future benefit, in which case the equipment is capitalized at cost.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets:

The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the related carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Mineral properties are monitored for indicators of impairment based on factors such as changes in mineral prices, government regulations and taxation, the Company’s continued right to explore the area, results from exploration activities (including assays, technical reports, and drill results), and the Company’s ongoing plans and ability to fund exploration programs on the property.

For operating mines, recoverability is assessed by comparing the undiscounted future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset to its net book value. If the net book value exceeds future net undiscounted future net cash flows, an impairment loss is recognized and measured as the excess of the asset’s net book value over its estimated fair value. Fair value for operating mines is determined using a combined approach, which includes a discounted cash flow model for the existing operations and a market approach for the valuation of exploration land claims.

Future cash flows are estimated based on quantities of recoverable mineralized material, expected gold and silver prices (considering current and historical prices, trends, and relevant market factors), production levels, operating costs, capital requirements and reclamation obligations, all based on current life-of-mine plans. The term "recoverable mineralized material” refers to the estimated quantity of gold or other commodities recoverable after accounting for processing and treatment losses.

In estimating future cash flows, assets are grouped at the lowest level for which there are separately identifiable cash flows that are largely independent of the cash flows of other asset groups. The Company’s estimates of future cash flows involve significant judgments and assumptions. Actual future results, including quantities of recoverable minerals, commodity prices, production levels, operating and capital costs, may differ materially due the inherent risks and uncertainties involved.

The recoverability of the book value of each property will be assessed annually for indicators of impairment such as adverse changes

62


Table of Contents

 

to any of the following:

estimated recoverable ounces of gold, silver or other precious minerals
estimated future commodity prices
estimated expected future operating costs, capital expenditures and reclamation expenditures

 

A write-down to fair value would be recorded if the expected future cash flow is less than the net book value of the property, or when events or changes in the property indicate that carrying amounts are not recoverable. This analysis will be completed as needed. As of the date of this filing, no events have occurred that would require the write-down of any assets. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, no indications of impairment existed.

 

Asset Retirement Obligation (“ARO”)

 

The Company recognizes asset retirement obligations (“AROs”) for the estimated future costs associated with the closure, dismantling, remediation, and post‑closure monitoring of its mining operations. These obligations include, among other activities, the decommissioning and removal of infrastructure, stabilization and closure of tailings storage facilities, sealing of underground mine workings, management and disposal of residual materials, remediation of disturbed areas, and required post‑closure environmental monitoring.

AROs are recognized in the period in which a legal or constructive obligation associated with the retirement of a long‑lived asset is incurred and the obligation can be reasonably estimated. Asset retirement costs are capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the related long‑lived asset when proven or probable mineral reserves exist or when the costs relate to an acquired mineral property interest. Otherwise, such costs are expensed as incurred. ARO liabilities are subsequently accreted over time, with accretion recognized as an operating expense.

Prior to January 1, 2025, the Company was classified as an Exploration Stage issuer and had not demonstrated proven or probable mineral reserves. Accordingly, asset retirement costs did not qualify for capitalization and were expensed as incurred.

The fair value of the Company’s ARO is measured using an expected present value technique in accordance with ASC 410‑20. Expected future cash flows are based on a comprehensive closure plan and reflect management’s best estimate of costs that a market participant would incur to perform the required closure and remediation activities. These cash flows are discounted using a credit‑adjusted risk‑free rate that reflects the Company’s credit standing.

The Company records the fair value of a liability for an ARO in the period that it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. The Company prepares estimates of the timing and amounts of expected cash flows when an ARO is incurred, which are updated to reflect changes in facts and circumstances. Estimation of the fair value of AROs requires significant judgment, including amount of cash flows, timing of reclamation, inflation rate and credit risk. Accrued reclamation and closure costs can represent a significant and variable liability on our balance sheet. The Company has estimated its liabilities under appropriate accounting guidance and reviews its liabilities on at least an annual basis. However, the ranges of liability could exceed the liabilities recognized. If substantial damages were awarded, claims were settled, or remediation costs were incurred in excess of our accruals, our financial results or condition could be materially adversely affected.

 

Property Holding Costs

 

Holding costs to maintain the SJG mine property are expensed in the period they are incurred. These costs include security and maintenance expenses, lease and claim fees and payments, and environmental monitoring and reporting costs.

 

Exploration Costs

 

Exploration costs, including exploration, direct field costs and related administrative costs are expensed in the period incurred.

 

Leases

 

The Company adopted ASC 842, which requires recognition of a right-of-use asset and lease liability for all leases at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Additional qualitative and quantitative disclosures regarding the Company’s leasing arrangements are also required. The Company adopted ASC 842 prospectively and elected the package of transition practical expedients that does not require reassessment of (1) whether any existing or expired contracts are or contain leases, (2) lease classification and (3) initial direct costs. In addition, the Company has elected other

63


Table of Contents

 

available practical expedients to not separate lease and non-lease components, which consist principally of common area maintenance charges, for all classes of underlying assets and to exclude leases with an initial term of 12 months or less.

 

 

Transactions In and Translations Of Foreign Currency

 

The functional currency for the subsidiaries of the Company is the Mexican Peso. As a result, the financial statements of the subsidiaries have been translated from Mexican Pesos into U.S. dollars using (i) year-end exchange rates for balance sheet accounts, and (ii) the weighted average exchange rate of the reporting period for all income statement accounts. Foreign currency translation gains and losses are reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity and comprehensive income (loss).

 

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency of the respective currency of the entity or division, using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions (spot exchange rate). Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the remeasurement of monetary items denominated in foreign currency at period-end exchange rates are recognized in profit or loss. Non-monetary items that are not re-translated at period end are measured at historical cost (translated using the exchange rates at the transaction date), except for non-monetary items measured at fair value, which are translated using the exchange rates as at the date when fair value was determined. Gains and losses are recorded in the statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

 

Relevant exchange rates used in the preparation of the financial statements for the subsidiaries are as follows for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 (Mexican Pesos per one U.S. dollar):

The Company recorded currency transaction gains (losses) of $5,192,079 and $(506,439) for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income and mining taxes under ASC 740 “Income Taxes” using the liability method, recognizing certain temporary differences between the financial reporting basis of liabilities and assets and the related income tax basis for such liabilities and assets. This method generates either a net deferred income and mining tax liability or asset for the Company, as measured by the statutory tax rates in effect. The Company derives the deferred income and mining tax charge or benefit by recording the change in either the net deferred income and mining tax liability or asset balance for the year. The Company records a valuation allowance against any portion of those deferred income and mining tax assets when it believes, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred income and mining tax asset will not be realized.

 

Income from the Company’s subsidiaries in México are taxed in accordance with applicable Mexican tax law.

Uncertain Tax Position

The Company is subject to income taxes in the U.S. and other foreign jurisdictions, with respect to which some of the outcome is uncertain. The evaluation of the Company’s uncertain tax positions involves significant judgment in the interpretation and application of GAAP and complex domestic and international tax laws. We establish reserves to remove some or all of the tax benefit of any of our tax positions at the time we determine that it becomes uncertain based upon one of the following conditions: (1) the tax position is not "more likely than not" to be sustained, (2) the tax position is "more likely than not" to be sustained, but for a lesser amount, or (3) the tax position is "more likely than not" to be sustained, but not in the financial period in which the tax position was originally taken. For purposes of evaluating whether or not a tax position is uncertain, (1) we presume the tax position will be examined by the relevant taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information; (2) the technical merits of a tax position are derived from authorities such as legislation and statutes, legislative intent, regulations, rulings and case law and their applicability to the facts and circumstances of the tax position; and (3) each tax position is evaluated without consideration of the possibility of offset or aggregation with other tax positions taken. Although management believes the Company’s reserves are reasonable, no assurance can be given that the final outcome of these uncertainties will not be different from that which is reflected in the Company’s reserves. A number of years may elapse before a particular uncertain tax position is audited and finally resolved

64


Table of Contents

 

or when a tax assessment is raised. The number of years subject to tax assessments varies depending on the tax jurisdiction. Any tax benefit that is or has been reserved because of a failure to meet the "more likely than not" recognition threshold would be recognized in income tax expense in the first interim period when the uncertainty disappears under any one of the following conditions: (1) the tax position is "more likely than not" to be sustained, (2) the tax position, amount, and/or timing is ultimately settled through negotiation or litigation, or (3) the statute of limitations for the tax position has expired.

Comprehensive Income (Loss)

ASC 220 “Comprehensive Income” establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components in a full set of general-purpose consolidated financial statements. The Company’s comprehensive income consists of net income (loss) and other comprehensive income (loss), consisting of unrealized net gains and losses on the translation of the assets and liabilities of its foreign operations.

Revenue Recognition

The Company follows ASC 606 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”. The Company generates revenue by selling gold and silver concentrate material produced from its mining operations. The Company recognizes revenue for gold and silver concentrate production, net of treatment and refining costs, when it satisfies the performance obligation of transferring control of the concentrate to the customer. This is generally when the material is delivered to the customer facility for treatment and processing, as the customer has the ability (upon such delivery) to direct the use of and obtain substantially all the remaining benefits from the material and the customer has the risk of loss.

 

The amount of revenue recognized is initially recorded on a provisional basis based on the contract price and the estimated metal quantities based on assay data. Adjustments to the provisional sales prices are made to take into account the mark-to-market changes based on the forward prices of metals until final settlement occurs. The changes in price between the provisional sales price and final sales price are considered an embedded derivative that is required to be separated from the host contract for accounting purposes. The host contract is the receivable from the sale of the concentrate at the quoted metal prices at the time of delivery. The embedded derivative, which does not qualify for hedge accounting, is adjusted to market through revenue at final settlement. Market changes in the prices of metals between the delivery and final settlement dates will result in adjustments to revenues related to previously recorded sales of concentrate. The chief risk associated with the recognition of sales on a provisional basis is the fluctuation (if any) between the estimated quantities of the precious metals based on the initial assay and the actual recovery from treatment and processing.

 

During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, there were $Nil and $9,350,000, respectively of revenue recognized during the year from customer deposit liabilities (deferred contract revenue) from prior periods, and no customer deposits were refunded to the customer due to order cancellation.

 

Shipping and handling costs are considered fulfillment costs after the customer obtains control of the goods.

Derivative Financial Instruments

 

Certain warrants are treated as derivative financial liabilities. The estimated fair value, based on the Black-Scholes model, is adjusted on a quarterly basis with gains or losses recognized in the statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). The Black-Scholes model is based on significant assumptions such as volatility, dividend yield, and expected term.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial instruments include cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, credit line, installment notes payable and derivative liabilities. The carrying values of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and credit line approximate fair value due to their short-term nature. Installment credit line also approximates fair value based on the relationship between stated interest rates and the Company’s risk-adjusted borrowing rate. Derivative liabilities are measured using the Black-Scholes model.

 

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

Earnings (loss) per share attributable to the common equity holders of the Company are calculated in accordance with ASC 260 “Earnings per Share”. The weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period is used to compute basic earnings (loss) per share. Diluted earnings per share are computed using the weighted average number of shares and potentially dilutive common shares outstanding. Potentially dilutive common shares are additional common shares assumed to be exercised.

Potentially dilutive common shares consist of stock warrants and convertible preferred shares and are excluded from the diluted earnings per share computation in periods where the Company has incurred a net loss, as their effect would be considered anti-dilutive.

The Company’s Series C Preferred Stock and related outstanding dividends were convertible into 2,942,695 and 2,853,721 shares of common stock at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The Company’s Series D Preferred Stock and related outstanding dividends were convertible into 851,200 and 820,800 shares of common stock at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had warrants outstanding to purchase 892,165 shares of common stock. During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 the Company has options outstanding to purchase 1,150,000 and 1,150,000 shares of common stock. These shares related to these potentially dilutive common shares are excluded from the weighted average diluted shares outstanding for the year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, as including them would be anti-dilutive.

Related Party Transactions

FASB ASC 850 "Related Party Disclosures" requires companies to include in their consolidated financial statements disclosures of material related party transactions. The Company discloses all material related party transactions. A party is considered to be related to the Company if the party directly or indirectly or through one or more intermediaries, controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with the Company. Related parties also include principal owners of the Company, its management, members of the immediate families of principal owners of the Company and its management and other parties with which the Company may deal if one party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests. A party which can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the transacting parties or if it has an ownership interest in one of the transacting parties and can significantly influence the other to an extent that one or more of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests is also a related party.

 

Significant Judgments, Estimates and Assumptions

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with 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 regularly 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.

The areas which require significant judgment and estimates that management has made at the financial reporting date, that could result in a material change to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities, in the event actual results differ from the assumptions made, relate to, but are not limited to the following:

Significant judgments:

the determination of income tax is inherently complex and requires making certain estimates and assumptions about future events;
quantitative and qualitative factors used in the assessment of impairment of the Company’s mineral property;

66


Table of Contents

 

the analysis of resource calculations, drill results, etc. which can impact the Company’s assessment of impairment, and provisions, if any, for environmental rehabilitation and restoration; and
the valuation of derivatives liabilities, which requires the selection of appropriate valuation models and significant judgment in determining input assumptions.

 

Reclassification

Certain prior period amounts in the Consolidated Balance Sheets have been reclassified to conform with current period presentation. All amounts previously presented under "Mining Concessions” as of December 31, 2024, have been reclassified to "Mineral Property Interests, Plant and Equipment”. See Note 3. Amounts relating to accrued interest on the Francisco Arturo mining concession duties payable (Note 11) that were previously included under "Accrued Liabilities” as of December 31, 2024 have been reclassified to "Mining concession duties payable”. In addition, certain non-trade obligations previously included under accounts payable and accrued liabilities as of December 31, 2024 have been reclassified to "Accrued mining taxes and other liabilities”. These reclassifications better reflect the nature of the liabilities and had no effect on current liabilities, net income or cash flows in any period reported.

Amounts in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) related to mine development and stripping costs for the year ended December 31, 2025 have been included as part of mine production costs to conform to the current year presentation. See Note 3. This reclassification better reflects the nature of the costs and had no effect on net income or cash flows in any period presented. In addition, effective for the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company reclassified and consolidated previously reported cost categories—including Mine Production Costs, Mill Production Costs Applicable to Sales, Camp, Warehouse and Facilities, Transportation Costs, Property Holding Costs, Facilities Expansion Costs, and Exploration Drilling—into a single line item titled ‘Operating Costs.’ This reclassification has been applied retrospectively, and all prior period amounts previously disclosed under these categories have been adjusted to conform to the current period presentation.

 

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In the fourth quarter of 2024, the Company adopted ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable

Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”). ASU 2023-07 enhances reportable segment disclosures by requiring disclosures such as

significant segment expenses, information on the CODM and disclosures for entities with a single reportable segment. Additionally, the amendments enhance interim disclosure requirements, clarify circumstances in which an entity can disclose multiple segment measures of profit or loss, and contain other disclosure requirements. The adoption of ASU 2023-07 did not have an impact on the consolidated results of operations, financial condition or statement of cash flows.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

 

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures”, which modifies the rules on income tax disclosures to require entities to disclose (1) specific categories in the rate reconciliation, (2) the income or loss from continuing operations before income tax expense or benefit (separated between domestic and foreign) and (3) income tax expense or benefit from continuing operations (separated by federal, state and foreign). ASU 2023-09 also requires entities to disclose their income tax payments to international, federal, state and local jurisdictions, among other changes. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. ASU 2023-09 should be applied on a prospective basis, but retrospective application is permitted. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows, as the amendments primarily affect disclosure requirements.

 

In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The guidance enhances the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures by requiring, among other things, expanded disclosures related to the effective tax rate reconciliation and income taxes paid.

 

Adoption of ASU 2023-09 requires public entities to:

Present a tabular reconciliation of the statutory federal income tax rate to the effective income tax rate using specified categories, including a requirement to disaggregate reconciling items that exceed a quantitative threshold;
Disclose income (loss) before income taxes disaggregated between domestic and foreign operations; and

67


Table of Contents

 

Disclose in the supplemental disclosures within the statement of cash flows, income taxes paid, net of refunds received, disaggregated by federal, state, and foreign jurisdictions, including further disaggregation for individual jurisidictions that are significant

 

The Company adopted ASU 2023-09 effective January 1, 2025 on a prospective basis. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows, as the amendments primarily affect disclosure requirements.

 

Accounting Standards Update 2024-03 – Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40). ASU 2024-03 requires all public entities to disclose disaggregated information about purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, intangible asset amortization, and depletion for each income statement line item that contains those expenses. The amendments in ASU 2024-03 are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. ASU 2024-03 allows for early adoption and requires either prospective adoption to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date of ASU 2024-03 or retrospective adoption for any and all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently assessing the impact of adopting ASU 2024-03 on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

 

NOTE 2 - RESTATEMENT OF PREVIOUSLY ISSUED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

In August 2025, management determined that the Company had accounted for Special and Extraordinary Mining Duties in Mexico inaccurately in certain prior periods, and that, mining tax expense and mining tax liabilities were not recognized in connection with consolidated financial statements prepared for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2021, 2022, and 2023 contained in its Annual Reports on Form 10-K for those years. As a result of these misstatements, the Company is restating certain financial information for the periods noted. All restated financial information is included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 (the “Form 10-K”), and the Company has not filed, and does not intend to file, amendments to any of our filings that the Company have previously filed with the SEC.

Restatement Background

In March 2025, the Mexican Tax Authority (Servicio de Administracion, “SAT”) issued a re-assessment for the 2021 tax year of DynaMexico. Following receipt of such reassessment, the Company identified previously unrecognized liabilities related to Special and Extraordinary Mining Duties applicable to its mining operations in Mexico. These duties, which are statutory and recurring in nature, were not fully recognized in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021. The Company undertook a thorough internal review of its tax filings from prior years to ensure compliance and completeness of any other potential liabilities. As a result of the internal review, management identified unrecognized mining duties and corresponding liabilities from DynaMexico and DynaMineras, two of the Company’s subsidiaries that operated the SJG mine during the years reviewed. The previously unrecognized liabilities total approximately $1.1 million, $0.9 million, $0.6 million, and $0.5 million for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024, respectively, inclusive of inflation adjustments, and penalties.

The internal review determined that restatement changes were necessary due to:

an understatement of mining tax expense in each period of the consolidated statement of operations; and
an understatement of mining tax liabilities in each period of the consolidated balance sheets

Items Included in this Filing

 

This Form 10-K includes restated consolidated financial statements and related disclosures as of and for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024.

 

The impact of the correction of the misstatements on the consolidated financial statements related to the mining duties for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024, which have now been corrected, is summarized below. The applicable accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements have also been updated, as applicable. The following amounts reflect the impact of the correction attributable to each individual reporting period; the cumulative effect of the prior‑period misstatement is reflected in the revised comparative financial statements and is disclosed below for the most recently comparable prior period.

On May 20, 2025, the Company filed with the SEC a Technical Report Summary ("TRS”) for the SJG mine prepared in accordance with the requirements of S-K 1300. The TRS includes the Company’s first declaration of mineral reserves and supports the transition from an Exploration Stage issuer to a Production Stage issuer.

As a result of the declaration of proven and probable mineral reserves, the Company has revised certain accounting estimates prospectively, including the capitalization of certain development costs and the commencement of systematic depreciation of applicable assets. These changes have been applied prospectively in accordance with ASC 250, with no restatement of prior periods.

Impact on Accounting Estimates

In connection with this transition, the Company revised its accounting estimates as follows:

1. Capitalization of Development Costs

• Prior to January 1, 2025, all underground mine development costs were expensed as incurred, as the SJG mine was classified as

70


Table of Contents

 

an exploration-stage property.

• Effective January 1, 2025, mine development costs that are directly related to sustaining and production-related activities are capitalized as part of "Mineral Property Interests, Plant and Equipment.”

• As a result capitalization of development costs during the year ended December 31, 2025 increased by approximately $8.9 million, compared to prior periods.

 

2. Depreciation and Depletion

• Beginning in 2025, the Company commenced depletion of capitalized mine development costs and depreciation of mineral property interests (including mining concessions) using the Unit-of-Production ("UOP”) method, based on total proven and probable mineral reserves.

• As a result depreciation and depletion expense during the year ended December 31, 2025 increased by approximately $1.4 million, compared to prior periods.

 

Financial Impact of the Change

The adoption of these revised estimates in 2025 had the following impact on the Company’s financial results:

 

 

Impact Area

Increase/(Decrease)

Capitalized Development Costs

$8.9 million

Depreciation and Depletion Expense

$1.4 million

This change in accounting estimate has been applied prospectively in accordance with ASC 250, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, with no restatement of prior periods.

Forward-Looking Considerations

Management anticipates that these changes will result in increased capitalized costs and higher depreciation expense in future periods. The Company will continue to review and update its reserve estimates and related accounting assumptions on an ongoing basis, consistent with GAAP.

NOTE 8 - DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES

 

Warrants Issued With the Notes Convertible into Series D Preferred Stock

72


Table of Contents

 

In fiscal 2020, the Company closed a financing agreement with Golden Post Rail, LLC (“Golden Post”) and certain shareholders whereby the Company issued convertible promissory notes that bore interest at 10% and were convertible into shares of Series D Senior Convertible Preferred Stock and common stock purchase warrants (“2020 warrants”) at an exercise price of $0.01 per share, with an expiry of ten years. These 2020 warrants contain anti-dilution provisions. See Note 12. The Company analyzed the conversion features of the promissory notes convertible into Series D Preferred Stock and determined that the 2020 warrants and remaining purchaser warrants issued with such notes qualified as a derivative liability. The fair value was required to be allocated among the notes, the notes’ conversion features, and the 2020 warrants and remaining purchaser warrants, and then re-measured at each reporting date. The Company performed a valuation of the conversion feature of the 2020 warrants and remaining purchaser warrants. In performing the valuation, the Company applied the guidance in ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements”, to non-financial assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). To measure fair value, the Company incorporates assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and utilizes market data to the maximum extent possible.

 

In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.

 

The Company classified the inputs in this valuation as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy under ASC 820 and utilized an equity simulation model to determine the value of conversion feature associated with the 2020 Warrants issued in connection with the notes convertible into Series D Preferred Stock, based on the assumptions set forth below:

For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, an active market for the Company’s common stock did not exist. Accordingly, the fair value of the Company’s common stock was estimated using a valuation model with level 3 inputs.

NOTE 9 – CREDIT LINE

 

(A) Advance Credit Line Facility/Customer Advances

On February 4, 2021, the Company entered into an Advance Credit Line Facility and Purchase Agreement (the “ACL”), with a commercial buyer. On August 2, 2023, the ACL was extended through December 2026 in an Amendment Agreement (the “Amendment”). Under the terms of the ACL and Amendment:

Beginning in September 2023, up to $10 million of the ACL advance may be converted into a one-year installment loan (the “RCL”) bearing interest at 3 month SOFR + 7.5% and amortized as follows: Month 1, interest only; Month 2-11, 5% principal plus interest; and Month 12, final 50% principal plus interest. Converting the advance amount into an installment loan will reduce the available on a pro rata percentage basis;
If the ACL is converted into the RCL subsequent deliveries during the term of the loan will be paid in cash within ten days of delivery; and

73


Table of Contents

 

The Amendment provides the buyer with a right of first refusal during the Offtake Agreement, to provide offtake financing and purchase other concentrates (zinc, silver, copper, etc) and doré from the Company’s open pit and underground operations.

(B) Revolving Credit Line (RCL) & Temporary Advance Credit Line (TACL)

On December 1, 2023, the Company exercised its option under the ACL to convert the outstanding balance of $9,750,000 into an RCL. The RCL is repayable as follows: Month 1, interest only; Months 2-11, 5% principal plus interest; and Month 12, final 50% principal plus interest.

On June 20, 2024, the Company amended the terms of the RCL. Under the amendment, the Company could receive up to an additional $4,000,000 under a temporary advance credit line (the "TACL”) at the same interest rate, with the TACL maturing on November 30, 2024. As part of the amendment, the Company also received a put option (the "Put Option”) allowing it to convert up to $9,000,000 of the RCL into common stock at $1.61 per share, exercisable from November 1, 2024 until the November 30, 2024. If both the RCL and the TACL were repaid in full on or before November 30, 2024, the maximum principal amount of the RCL would increase to $12,500,000. However, if the Put Option was exercised for an amount greater than $4,000,000, the maximum principal amount of the RCL would be reduced on a dollar-for-dollar basis by the excess.

As part of the June 20, 2024 amendment, the Company granted a security interest in its Mexican IVA tax claims to the holder of the RCL and TACL notes.

In November 2024, the Company repaid the TACL in full and renewed the RCL for an additional one-year term. Under the renewal, the TACL was discontinued, and the Put Option was removed. The maximum principal amount of $12,500,000, the interest rate, and repayment terms remained unchanged.

(C) Amendment to Offtake Agreement and Credit Facility

On August 22, 2025, DynaMexico entered into an amendment (the "Amendment”) to the Gold Concentrate Purchase Agreement originally dated February 1, 2021 (as amended, the "Offtake Agreement”), with MK Metal Trading Mexico S.A. de C.V. ("Buyer”) and Ocean Partners UK Limited ("Ocean Partners UK”).

The Amendment:

• Extends the term of the Offtake Agreement through December 31, 2030, with automatic annual renewals unless terminated by either party with 365 days’ notice;

• Adds Ocean Partners UK as a joint buyer under the Offtake Agreement, with full rights and obligations;

• Establishes a new $15 million Concentrate Credit Facility (the "Credit Facility”), replacing the prior $12.5 million facility, with principal repayable in equal monthly installments over months 7 through 24, bearing interest at 3-month SOFR plus 6.75%;

• Introduces a $3 million termination fee payable by DynaMexico to Buyer under certain conditions; and

• Provides security for the Credit Facility, including a parent company guarantee from the Company, a general security agreement, and a pledge of DynaMexico shares.

 

The Credit Facility is structured as a 24-month loan. For the first six months of the loan tenor, DynaMexico is required to make interest-only payments. Beginning in month 7 and continuing through month 24, the loan is repayable in 18 equal monthly principal installments, plus interest.

Concurrent with the Amendment, DynaMexico and Ocean Partners UK entered into the Credit Facility, and the Company executed a Parent Company Guarantee in favor of Ocean Partners UK, guaranteeing DynaMexico’s obligations under the Credit Facility.

NOTE 11 - ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATION

 

The Company is responsible for the reclamation of certain past and future disturbances at its properties. During 2023, a significant upgrade was made to the milling facility and therefore, an ARO was established as of December 31, 2023.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company recorded a change in estimate related to its ARO as a result of completing an updated, comprehensive closure plan. The increase in the ARO was recorded as an increase to mineral property, plant and equipment, with a corresponding increase to the ARO liability.

As of December 31, 2025, 13,713,213 of Preferred Stock remain undesignated.

Series C Senior Convertible Preferred Stock

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, there were 1,734,992 shares of Series C Preferred Stock outstanding. As of December 31, 2025, the Series C Preferred Stock is convertible to common stock at $1.95 per share or redeemable in cash at the shareholder’s option and include anti-dilution protection. The Series C Preferred Stock may receive a 4% per annum dividend, payable if available, and in arrears, calculated at 4% of $4,337,480 payable annually on June 30. As of December 31, 2025, dividends for the years ending December 31, 2017 through 2025 totaling $1,574,274 were in arrears (2024 - $1,400,784).

Because the Series C Preferred Stock is mandatorily redeemable by the Company at the election of the holder upon maturity, it is classified as "temporary equity” on the consolidated balance sheet.

 

Series D Senior Convertible Preferred Stock

 

Financing Agreement with Golden Post Rail, LLC, a Texas Limited Liability Company, and with Shareholders of DynaResource

 

On May 14, 2020, the Company closed an additional financing and related agreements with certain shareholders totaling $4,020,000 which was convertible into shares of Series D Preferred Stock. The noteholders also received the 2020 warrants, as outlined in Note 8, for the purchase of an aggregate of 1,260,633 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.01 a share.

 

On October 7, 2021, the Company paid $2,500,000 to repurchase one note. The remaining ten noteholders elected to convert their notes totaling $1,520,000 into Series D Preferred Stock at $2.00 per share. Concurrently with the note conversion the noteholders exercised 368,468 of the 2020 Warrants to purchase 368,468 shares of the Company’s common stock at $0.01 per share. On October 18, 2021, the Company issued 760,000 shares of Series D Preferred Stock. The Series D Preferred Stock may receive a 4% per annum dividend, payable if available, and in arrears, calculated at 4.0% of $1,520,000 payable annually on October 18. As of December 31, 2025 dividends for the years 2022 through 2025 totaling $243,200 were in arrears.

 

Because the Series D Preferred Stock is mandatorily redeemable by the Company at the election of the holder upon maturity, it is classified as "temporary equity” on the consolidated balance sheet.

 

Deemed dividends on the Series C and D Preferred Stock for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, were $234,299 and $234,299, respectively. As these dividends have not been declared by the Company, they are required to be presented as an adjustment "below” the net income (loss) line on the accompanying unaudited condensed interim consolidated statements of income.

NOTE 13 – STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

 

On December 28, 2022, the Company issued 1,500,000 shares of restricted common stock to certain key employees and consultants. The shares were 25% vested at issuance and vest an additional 25% on December 28, 2023, 2024, and 2025. The shares were valued at the closing stock price of $2.35 on the date of issuance and accounted for under ASC 718. Stock compensation expense for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 was $1,249,459 and $1,219,062, respectively, representing the 25% vested portion of the total stock value. In addition the 2024 expenses included accelerated vesting of $327,813 due to terminations. In addition to the

78

accelerated vesting 112,500 shares under these awards were cancelled in December 2024. As of December 31, 2025, deferred compensation totaling $nil remained unvested.

On June 3, 2024, Mr. Rohan Hazelton was appointed as the Company’s new Chief Executive Officer. In connection with Mr. Hazelton’s appointment, the Company entered into an Employment Agreement with Mr. Hazelton that included a signing bonus of 750,000 stock options as detailed below, 500,000 Restricted Stock Units vesting one-third per year on each of the first three anniversaries of the grant date, the terms of which are to be determined by the Compensation Committee and 500,000 Deferred Stock Units, the terms and metrics of which are to be determined by the Compensation Committee.

On July 22, 2024, Mr. Alonso Sotomayor was appointed as the Company’s new Chief Financial Officer. In connection with Mr. Sotomayor’s appointment, the Company entered into an Employment Agreement with Mr. Sotomayor that included a signing bonus of 225,000 restricted stock units vesting one-third per year on each of the first three anniversaries of the grant date.

 

On November 20, 2025, the Company and Mr. Sotomayor entered into a new employment arrangement pursuant to an Offer of Continued Employment with the Company, which replaced the prior employment agreement. In connection with this arrangement, the Company agreed to provide Mr. Sotomayor with a retention award (the “Retention Bonus”), subject to his continued active employment and compliance with applicable laws, including securities laws. The Retention Bonus is intended to be delivered in the form determined by the Board, in its discretion, of either (i) 225,000 restricted stock units (“RSUs”) or (ii) a number of RSUs having an aggregate value of C$470,000, calculated at the time of issuance.

 

The RSUs were cancelled and are expected to be reissued at such time as issuance is permitted under applicable laws. Provided Mr. Sotomayor remains actively employed at the time of issuance, the RSUs will be issued promptly in compliance with applicable laws.

 

On February 16, 2024, in conjunction with joining the Board, Mr. Quinton Hennigh was awarded options to purchase up to 400,000 shares of common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $5.00 per share, with such options vesting in 25% increments on each of the first four anniversaries of the date of the award and exercisable for a period of four years from the date of the grant.

Management Bonuses

On March 28, 2025, the Compensation Committee approved bonus awards for the management team totaling $457,500, consisting of $217,500 in cash and $240,000 in common stock. The stock portion represents 263,736 shares, calculated based on the closing price of $0.91 per share on March 28, 2025. Of these awards, $70,000 in cash and $125,000 in stock (equivalent to 137,363 shares) were allocated to directors and officers. The Board ratified these awards on April 2, 2025.

Independent Director Compensation

Also on March 28, 2025, the Compensation Committee approved annual compensation for independent directors, consisting of a base cash component of $25,000 and an additional $50,000 to be paid in shares of common stock. The equity portion of the compensation is subject to vesting as follows: one-third vests immediately, one-third vests one year from the grant date, and the remaining one-third vests two years from the grant date. This resulted in a total stock-based award of $250,000 for the five independent directors. The Board approved this compensation on April 2, 2025. This amount was classified as a liability as the Company has an obligation to settle the obligation by issuing a variable number of shares.

 

 

NOTE 14 – INCOME TAXES

 

FASB ASC 740-10, Income Taxes, mandates the asset and liability approach to determine the income tax provision or benefit. This approach requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. Income tax receivables and liabilities and deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized based on the amounts that more likely than not will be sustained upon ultimate settlement with taxing authorities.

Developing the provision for income taxes and analysis of uncertain tax positions requires significant judgment and knowledge of federal and state income tax laws, regulations and strategies, including the determination of deferred tax assets and liabilities and, if necessary, any valuation allowances that may be required for deferred tax assets.

The Company assess the realization of our deferred tax assets to determine whether an income tax valuation allowance is required. Based on all available evidence, both positive and negative, and the weight of that evidence to the extent such evidence can be objectively verified, we determine whether it is more likely than not that all or a portion of the deferred tax assets will be realized.

The Company considers many factors when evaluating our uncertain tax positions, and such judgments are subject to periodic review. Tax benefits associated with uncertain tax positions are recognized in the period in which one of the following conditions is satisfied: (1) the more likely than not recognition threshold is satisfied; (2) the position is ultimately settled through negotiation or litigation; or (3) the statute of limitations for the taxing authority to examine and challenge the position has expired. Tax benefits associated with an uncertain tax position are derecognized in the period in which the more likely than not recognition threshold is no longer satisfied.

At December 31, 2025, the carryforwards available to offset US federal future taxable income consisted of net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards of approximately $5.2 million pre-tax, all of which, have no expiration date. Future NOL utilization will be subject to the 80-percent of taxable income limitation, as all remaining NOLs have been generated after 2017 and the passage of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017. The Company’s Mexico net operating losses of $10.9 million pre-tax are subject to a ten-year carryforward period and the Company anticipates utilizing its Mexico NOL in future years before expiration.

The Company’s practice is to recognize interest and penalties related to income taxes in income tax expense in continuing operations, as incurred. There were no uncertain tax benefits or interest and penalties related to uncertain tax benefits as of December 31, 2025.

The Company is subject to income taxes in the US Federal jurisdiction as well as Mexico. The Company is no longer subject to US federal, state, and local tax examinations by tax authorities for years prior to fiscal year 2022. The Company is no longer subject to Mexico tax examinations for years prior to fiscal year 2018.

 

The Company has not provided U.S. income taxes and foreign withholding taxes, on its cumulative earnings for certain non-U.S. subsidiaries, because such earnings are intended to be indefinitely reinvested. Determination of the amount of unrecognized deferred tax liability for temporary differences related to investments in these non-U.S. subsidiaries that are essentially permanent in duration is not practicable.

NOTE 15 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Legal Update

 

From time to time, the Company is involved in legal matters in the ordinary course of its business. The Company intends to defend itself vigorously against any such claims. It is the Company’s policy to accrue for amounts related to lawsuits brought against it if it is probable that a liability has been incurred and an amount can be reasonably estimated. Although the outcome of such matters cannot be predicted with certainty and no assurances can be given with respect to such matters, the Company believes that the outcome of those ordinary course matters in which it is currently involved will not have a materially adverse effect on its results of operations, liquidity, or financial position.

 

Concession Taxes

 

The Company is required to pay taxes in México in order to maintain mining concessions owned by DynaMéxico. Additionally, the Company is required to incur a minimum amount of expenditures each year for all concessions held. The minimum expenditures are calculated based upon the land area, as well as the age of the concessions. Amounts spent in excess of the minimum may be carried forward indefinitely over the life of the concessions and are adjusted annually for inflation. Based on Management’s recent business activities and current and forward plans and considering expenditures on mining concessions from 2002-2017 and continuing expenditures in current and forward activities, the Company does not anticipate that DynaMéxico will have any difficulties meeting the minimum annual expenditures for the concessions ($388 – $2,400 Mexican Pesos per hectare). DynaMéxico retains sufficient carryforward amounts to cover over 10 years of the minimum expenditure (as calculated at the 2017 minimum, adjusted for annual inflation of 4%).

 

Leases

 

In addition to the surface rights held by DynaMéxico pursuant to the Mining Act of México and its Regulations (Ley Minera y su Reglamento), DynaMineras maintains access and surface rights to the SJG mine pursuant to the 20-year Land Lease Agreement. The 20 Year Land Lease Agreement with the Santa Maria Ejido Community surrounding San Jose de Gracía was dated January 6, 2014 and continues through January 2033. It covers an area of 4,399 hectares surrounding the main mineral resource areas of the SJG mine and provides for annual lease payments on January 1st each year by DynaMineras of $1,359,443 pesos adjusted for inflation based on the Mexico minimum wage increase commencing in 2014. Rent was $5,932,583 Pesos (approx. $304,000 USD) for the year ended December 31, 2025. The Land Lease Agreement provides DynaMineras with surface access to the core resource areas of the SJG mine (4,399 hectares), and allows for all permitted mining and exploration activities from the owners of the surface rights (Santa Maria Ejido community).

 

The Company leases office space for its corporate headquarters in Irving, Texas. In February 2023, the Company entered into a fifty-two month extension of the lease with additional office space. As part of the agreement the lease term commenced and the Company received four months free rent upon completion of the finish out of the new space. The expansion was completed and the Company moved into the office space affective August 1, 2023 The Company makes tiered lease payments on the 1st of each month.

 

The Company determines if a contract is or contains a lease at inception. As of December 31, 2025, the Company has two operating leases - a fifty-two month lease for office space with a remaining term of thirty-five months and a twenty-year ground lease in association with its México mining operations with a remaining term of eight years. Variable lease costs consist primarily of variable

83

common area maintenance, storage parking and utilities. The Company’s leases do not have any residual value guarantees or restrictive covenants.

As the implicit rate is not readily determinable for most of the Company’s lease agreements, the Company uses an estimated incremental borrowing rate to determine the initial present value of lease payments. These discount rates for leases are calculated using the Company's interest rate of promissory notes.

 

The Company’s components of lease expense are as follows:

The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

 

Level 1 Inputs – Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.

Level 2 Inputs – Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable.

Level 3 Inputs – Instruments with primarily unobservable value drivers.

 

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company’s financial instruments were carried at fair value and were measured at fair value using Level 3 inputs, with the exception of cash, accounts receivable, foreign tax receivable, notes payable, mining concession duties payable, which are measured at amortized cost. A description of the valuation of the Level 3 inputs is discussed in Note 8.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of December 31, 2025. This evaluation was accomplished under the supervision and with the participation of our chief executive officer / principal executive officer and our financial consultant who concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that all material information required to be filed in the Annual Report on Form 10-K has been made known to them at a reasonable assurance level. The evaluation did not include a 404A assessment. For purposes of this section, the term disclosure controls and procedures mean controls and other procedures of an issuer that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Act (15 U.S.C. 78a et seg.) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure, controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer's management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act. Our internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management of the Company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

 

Because of inherent limitations, a system of internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate due to change in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

 

Our management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting using the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013 Internal Control—Integrated Framework) at December 31, 2025. Based on its evaluation, our management concluded that, as of December 31, 2025, our internal controls over financial reporting were effective.

 

This Annual Report on Form 10-K does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to the attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the SEC that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

 

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

 

There have been no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

Employment Arrangements

 

Rohan Hazelton

 

On June 3, 2024, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Hazelton, which was amended on November 20, 2025 (the “Employment Agreement”). Pursuant to the Employment Agreement, Mr. Hazelton receives an annual base salary of $247,500 and is eligible to receive a discretionary annual bonus of up to 50% of his base salary, payable in the calendar year to which the bonus relates. In connection with the Employment Agreement, Mr. Hazelton was granted equity-based awards consisting of (i) options to purchase up to 750,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $1.75 per share, (ii) 500,000 RSUs, and (iii) 500,000 DSUs. The options and RSUs vest in three equal installments, with one-third vesting on June 3, 2025, one-third vesting on June 3, 2026, and one-third vesting on June 3, 2027. The DSUs are subject to performance conditions established by the CHR Committee. The equity awards described above were originally granted in June 2024; however, were later cancelled and reissued to Mr. Hazelton on November 20, 2025.

Alonso Sotomayor

Mr. Sotomayor is also eligible to receive a discretionary annual bonus of up to 40% of his base salary.

In connection with this arrangement, the Company agreed to provide Mr. Sotomayor with a retention award (the “Retention Bonus”), subject to his continued active employment and compliance with applicable laws, including securities laws. The Retention Bonus is intended to be delivered in the form determined by the Board, in its discretion, of either (i) 225,000 RSUs or (ii) a number of RSUs having an aggregate value of C$470,000, calculated at the time of issuance. Issuance of the RSUs is subject to the lifting (or non‑applicability) of the Company’s Canadian cease trade order (the “CTO”). Provided Mr. Sotomayor remains actively employed at the time the CTO is lifted, the RSUs will be issued promptly following such lifting, in compliance with applicable laws. Subject to the issuance of the RSUs and continued active employment, the RSUs are intended to vest in accordance with the vesting schedule set forth in Mr. Sotomayor’s original employment agreement dated July 22, 2024: one‑third on July 22, 2025, one‑third on July 22, 2026, and one‑third on July 22, 2027.

(“Vulcan”), which commenced in November 2024 and expired on December 31, 2025. During this period, Mr. Keough provided technical and operational consulting services to the Company. In June 2025, Mr. Keough was appointed Chief Operating Officer of the Company, and his consulting arrangement was amended in August 2025 to reflect his expanded role and responsibilities. In connection with this amendment, Mr. Keough was granted 450,000 RSUs under the Company’s equity incentive plans. The RSUs were granted on August 12, 2025, and vest in three equal installments: one‑third vesting on August 12, 2026, one-third on August 12, 2027, and one-third on August 12, 2028. On February 26, 2026, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with Vulcan that continued Mr. Keough’s services to the Company and was effective as of August 15, 2025. Under this agreement, Vulcan receives a monthly consulting fee of $20,000 and is eligible to receive an annual discretionary cash bonus of up to 50% of the consulting fees billed in the prior calendar year, as determined by the Compensation & Human Resources Committee. Mr. Keough is also eligible to receive equity‑based compensation under the Company’s equity incentive plans, with the type and amount of any such equity compensation to be determined in the discretion of the CHR Committee.

Grants of Certain Equity Awards Close in Time to the Release of Material Nonpublic Information

 

The CHR Committee approves all equity awards granted to the Company’s NEOs on or before the applicable grant date. The Company does not maintain a practice of granting equity awards on a periodic or pre-established schedule. From time to time, however, the CHR Committee may approve equity awards in connection with new hires, promotions, retention, recognition, or other appropriate circumstances.

 

96


Table of Contents

 

While the CHR Committee has discretion to approve equity awards to NEOs, it does not have a practice or policy of granting equity awards in anticipation of the release of material nonpublic information. The Company does not time the release of material nonpublic information in coordination with equity award grants in a manner intended to benefit NEOs or to affect the value of executive compensation.

(2) Includes awards outstanding under our 2022 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2022 Plan”).

 

 

Material Features of the 2022 Plan

 

Effective Date; Duration of the Plan. The 2022 Plan became effective on September 30, 2022 and will remain in effect until September 30, 2032, unless earlier terminated by the Board.

 

Plan Administration. The 2022 Plan is administered by the CHR Committee. The CHR Committee has the authority to, among other things, interpret the 2022 Plan, determine who is granted awards under the 2022 Plan, determine the terms and conditions of each award, and take action as it determines to be necessary or advisable for the administration of the 2022 Plan.

 

Eligibility. The CHR Committee may grant awards to any employee or other individual that performs services for the Company and/or its subsidiaries.

 

Shares Available for Awards. The 2022 Plan authorizes the issuance of up to 2,000,000 shares of common stock.

If any outstanding award expires or is forfeited for any reason, the shares of common stock which were subject to the award will, unless the 2022 Plan has been terminated, become available for future awards under the 2022 Plan.

 

Types of Awards that May Be Granted. Subject to the limits in the 2022 Plan, the CHR Committee has the authority to set the size and type of award and any vesting or performance conditions. The types of awards that may be granted under the Plan are restricted stock. A restricted stock award is an award of actual shares of common stock which are subject to certain restrictions for a period of time determined by the CHR Committee. Restricted stock may be held by the Company in escrow or delivered to the participant pending the release of the restrictions. Participants who receive restricted stock awards generally have the rights and privileges of stockholders regarding the shares of restricted stock during the restricted period, including the right to vote and the right to receive dividends.

 

Adjustment Upon Changes in Stock. In the event of changes in the outstanding common stock or in the capital structure of the Company by reason of any stock or extraordinary cash dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, an extraordinary corporate transaction such as any recapitalization, reorganization, merger, consolidation, combination, exchange, or other relevant change in capitalization occurring after the grant date of any award, awards granted under the 2022 Plan and any award agreements, the maximum number of shares of common stock subject to all awards will be equitably adjusted or substituted, as to the number, price or kind of a share of common stock or other consideration subject to such awards to the extent necessary to preserve the economic intent of the award.

100


Table of Contents

 

 

Change in Control. Upon a change in control of the Company, any time periods, conditions or contingencies relating to the exercise or realization of, or lapse of restrictions under, any award will be automatically accelerated or waived.

 

Amendment or Termination of the Plan. The Board may suspend, amend, modify or terminate the 2022 Plan at any time; provided that, except as otherwise provided on the 2022 Plan, no such suspension, termination, amendment or modification of the 2022 Plan may adversely affect in any material way any award previously granted under the 2022 Plan without the applicable participant’s consent.

 

Amendment of Awards. The CHR Committee may amend the terms of any one or more awards. However, the CHR Committee may not amend an award that would impair a participant’s rights under the award without the participant’s consent.

 

U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of Awards. Unless a participant makes an election to accelerate the recognition of income to the grant date (as described below), the grant of restricted stock awards will not result in taxable income to the participant. When the restrictions lapse, the participant will recognize ordinary income on the excess of the fair market value of the shares on the vesting date over the amount paid for the shares, if any, and the Company will be entitled to a corresponding deduction. If the participant makes an election under Section 83(b) of the Code within thirty days after the grant date, the participant will recognize ordinary income as of the grant date equal to the fair market value of the shares on the grant date over the amount paid, if any, and the Company will be entitled to a corresponding deduction. Any future appreciation will be taxed at capital gains rates. However, if the shares are later forfeited, the participant will not be able to recover any taxes paid.

 

 

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE

On June 26, 2024, the Company entered into privately negotiated stock purchase agreements with one accredited investor, pursuant to which the Company issued and sold to the investor in a private placement an aggregate of 1,552,795 shares of Series E Preferred Stock, which is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock on a 1:1 ratio.

Review, Approval, or Ratification of Transactions with Related Persons

 

The Board reviews matters involving potential conflicts of interest and reviews and approves all related party transactions, including transactions required to be disclosed under applicable federal securities laws. The Company has not adopted formal written procedures governing the review of potential conflicts of interest and instead evaluates each transaction based on its specific facts and circumstances.

 

When a potential related party transaction is presented, the Board expects to be fully informed of the material facts regarding the transaction and the interests of the related party and to deliberate on the matter outside the presence of the related party. The Company expects that the Board would approve only those related party transactions that are in the best interests of the Company and fair to the Company and would seek to ensure that such transactions are on terms no less favorable than those that could be obtained from an unaffiliated third party.

 

Board of Directors Independence

 

The Board has determined that the following directors are independent within the meaning of the applicable Nasdaq rules: Mr. Cabrera, Mr. Hennigh, Mr. Omland, Mr. Rose, Mr. Petrini and Ms. Anzola.

(1) Audit fees represent fees for professional services provided in connection with the audit of our financial statements and internal control over financial reporting, the review of our quarterly financial statements, and audit services provided in connection with other statutory or regulatory filings.

Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures

 

The Audit Committee has policies and procedures requiring pre-approval by the Audit Committee of the engagement of the Company’s independent auditor to perform audit services, as well as permissible non-audit services.

 

AUDIT SERVICES: The terms and fees for the Company’s annual audit are subject to the specific pre-approval of the Audit Committee. Audit services include the annual financial statement audit, required quarterly reviews, subsidiary audits and other procedures required to be performed by the auditor to form an opinion on our financial statements, and such other procedures including information systems and procedural reviews and testing performed in order to understand and place reliance on the systems of internal control. Other audit services may also include statutory audits or financial audits for subsidiaries and services associated with SEC registration statements, periodic reports and other documents filed with the SEC or used in connection with securities offerings.

 

AUDIT RELATED SERVICES: Audit-related services are assurance and related services that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of our financial statements or that are traditionally performed by the independent auditor. Audit-related services are subject to the specific pre-approval of the Audit Committee. Audit-related services include, among others, due diligence services relating to potential business acquisitions/dispositions; accounting consultations relating to accounting, financial reporting or disclosure matters not classified as audit services; assistance with understanding and implementing new accounting and financial reporting guidance from rulemaking authorities; financial audits of employee benefit plans; agreed-upon or expanded

audit procedures relating to accounting and/or billing records required to respond to or comply with financial, accounting or regulatory reporting matters; and assistance with internal control reporting requirements.

TAX SERVICES: Tax services are subject to the specific pre-approval of the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee will not approve the retention of the independent auditor in connection with a transaction the sole business purpose of which may be tax avoidance and the tax treatment of which may not be supported by the Internal Revenue Code and related regulations.

ALL OTHER SERVICES: Pre-approval by the Audit Committee is required for those permissible non-audit services that it believes are routine and recurring services, would not impair the independence of the auditor and are consistent with the SEC’s rules on auditor independence.

FAQ

What is DynaResource (DYNR) highlighting about its San Jose de Gracia mine in this 10-K?

The company reports filing a Technical Report Summary for the San Jose de Gracia mine, declaring mineral reserves and supporting a shift to Production Stage status. This changes accounting, with development costs capitalized and depreciation beginning on applicable assets.

How much gold did DynaResource (DYNR) sell from San Jose de Gracia in 2025?

A 9,000‑ounce hedge at $2,495 per ounce and a 6,000‑ounce min/max collar with $3,200 and $3,500 strikes produced a combined negative impact of about $3.7 million in 2025. These arrangements limited downside but also reduced benefits from higher spot gold prices.

As of December 31, 2025, DynaResource had about $4.2 million in cash, an accumulated deficit near $65.4 million, and roughly $15 million in debt. Management and auditors note substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern without additional financing.
