Panoro Minerals Ltd. Announces Closing of Upsized Brokered LIFE Offering for Gross Proceeds of C$21,000,000
Panoro Minerals Secures C$21M Funding to Advance Cotabambas Drilling Amidst Copper Rally

Executive Summary
- Panoro Minerals Ltd. closed a brokered LIFE offering on May 13, 2026, raising gross proceeds of approximately C$21,000,000.
- The offering consisted of 22,105,263 common shares issued at C$0.95 per share.
- Proceeds are designated for exploration and development at the Cotabambas Copper-Gold-Silver Project in Peru and general corporate working capital.
- Lead agent Clarus Securities Inc. received a 6.0% cash commission ($1,260,000) plus compensation options (1,326,315 shares exercisable at C$1.00 until May 13, 2027).
- Insider participation occurred with directors and officers investing approximately $271,000.
- This follows the initial announcement on May 4, 2026, which targeted up to C$20 million, indicating an upsizing of the offering.
Material Impact
- Capital Adequacy: The closing secures sufficient liquidity to fund the announced 15,000-metre drilling program and pre-feasibility engineering without immediate distress risk for the next 6-12 months.
- Dilution Impact: Issuing ~22 million shares at C$0.95 represents a discount of approximately 20% to the recent market price ($1.20-$1.30 range). This creates short-term downward pressure on share price as arbitrageurs may sell into the offering price, but it confirms management's commitment to funding development.
- Strategic Alignment: The financing directly supports the "High-Grade Strategy" announced in March 2026 and the drilling mobilization in April 2026. It validates the project's progression from exploration toward pre-feasibility.
- Market Sentiment: Successful upsizing to C$21M suggests strong demand despite previous financing cancellations or struggles in late 2025 (e.g., October 2025 cancellation). This demonstrates improved investor confidence compared to historical volatility.
