Goldsky Shareholders Approve Agnico Eagle as a Control Person in Connection with Goldsky Becoming 100% Owner of the Barsele Gold Project and Goldsky Provides Corporate Update

Goldsky Secures Tier-1 Partner Validation as Barsele Deal Nears Closing

Executive Summary
  • Shareholder Approval: Shareholders overwhelmingly approved Agnico Eagle Mines Ltd. as a Control Person (99.99% in favour), enabling Goldsky to acquire the remaining 55% interest in the Barsele Gold Project.
  • Ownership Consolidation: The transaction results in Goldsky becoming the 100% owner of the flagship Barsele asset, previously held jointly with Agnico Eagle Sweden AB.
  • Closing Timeline: Transaction expected to close in Q2 2026 (no later than June 30, 2026), subject to regulatory approvals and customary conditions.
  • Management Changes: Director Karilyn Farmer retains her board seat while serving as SVP, Exploration & Resource Development effective April 21, 2026.
  • Resource Context: Barsele Indicated Mineral Resource is 7.88 Mt @ 1.27 g/t Au (320,781 oz); Inferred is 28.75 Mt @ 1.98 g/t Au (1.83 Moz).
  • Financial Context: Q4 2025 results released March 31 showed cash of $84.4M and total assets of $178.0M following a C$80M financing and Mawson acquisition.
Material Impact
  • De-risking the Transaction: The shareholder vote removes the primary governance hurdle for Agnico Eagle to become a Control Person, significantly reducing regulatory uncertainty regarding the deal closing in Q2 2026.
  • Strategic Validation: Agnico Eagle taking a ~32.5% stake and becoming a control person is a strong endorsement of Goldsky's asset quality and management team by a Tier-1 producer. This validates the valuation expansion seen earlier in the year.
  • Dilution Reality Check: While positive, the deal involves issuing 75.5M shares to Agnico (valued at ~C$199M). The market has already reacted to this dilution risk, evidenced by the price correction from $4.22 in late February to ~$3.30 in April.
  • Execution Focus: Approval shifts focus from deal negotiation to execution of the Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) planned for 2026 and advancing Barsele toward mining licenses.
  • Neutral-to-Positive Price Action: The stock has corrected ~27% from its highs despite positive news flow in March/April, suggesting the market is digesting the dilution or waiting for closing confirmation before re-rating higher.
