Completion of Tranche 2 of Placement
Novo Resources Secures Liquidity Amidst Operational Setbacks and Valuation Adjustments

Executive Summary
- Novo Resources Corp. completed Tranche 2 of its private placement on May 28, 2026, raising approximately C$1.93 million in gross proceeds.
- The company issued ~8.0 million Units to Canadian investors and ~10.9 million Chess Depository Interests (CDIs) to international investors.
- Northern Star Resources Ltd remains the largest shareholder with a holding of ~9.87% following its participation in Tranche 2, confirming continued institutional interest despite recent operational changes.
- The placement included warrants and options: Units comprise one Common Share and 0.5 Common Share purchase warrant; CDI subscribers received Options (exercise price A$0.15, expiry March 18, 2029).
- This financing follows shareholder approval at the AGM and completes the previously announced capital raise structure initiated in February 2026.
Material Impact
- The completion of Tranche 2 is a positive liquidity event but falls under Routine - Positive as it was anticipated following the initial placement announcement and required AGM approval.
- Northern Star's continued participation validates management's strategy, yet their withdrawal from the Egina Gold Project JV (announced May 26) creates a mixed operational backdrop that limits upside potential in the short term.
- The financing mitigates immediate solvency risk but introduces dilution through warrants and options, which caps near-term share price appreciation unless exploration results improve significantly.
- Given the stock's decline from $0.28 to $0.08 over the preceding months, this capital raise stabilizes the balance sheet rather than acting as a catalyst for a major re-rating.
