NEVADA KING GRADUATES TO THE PREMIUM OTCQX BEST MARKET, ENHANCING VISIBILITY FOR U.S. INVESTORS

Nevada King Gold Corp. (NKG) has been approved to begin trading on the OTCQX Best Market under the ticker symbol "NKGFF," marking its graduation from the OTCQB Venture Market. The upgrade to the highest tier of the OTC Markets Group validates the company's compliance with high financial standards and corporate governance practices, a move designed to enhance visibility among U.S. investors.

The transition follows a strategic share consolidation completed on May 7, 2026, which enabled the company to meet the required financial and share price thresholds for the premium tier. By meeting these criteria, Nevada King Gold Corp. demonstrated adherence to best-practice corporate governance and strict compliance with applicable securities laws. The company’s capital structure remains unchanged, and existing OTCQB holders will automatically transition to the premium market. Shares will continue to trade on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol "NKG."

John Sclodnick, CEO, stated, "Trading on the OTCQX is a major milestone that directly supports our strategy to expand Nevada King's reach across North American capital markets. Completing our strategic share consolidation on May 7, 2026 was a key catalyst that allowed us to meet the financial and share price thresholds required for this premium tier."

Sclodnick added, "This upgrade significantly enhances our visibility among U.S. institutional and retail investors by providing a more transparent, highly accessible, and efficient platform to trade our stock. Ultimately, we expect this move to streamline the investment process for our U.S. partners at a time when our 40,000-metre Phase 4 drill program at the Atlanta Gold Mine project is hitting full stride."
