Lode Gold Announces Semi-Annual Financial Reporting (SAR) Adoption

Vancouver, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – May 26, 2026) – Lode Gold Resources Inc (TSXV: LOD) (OTCQB: LODFF) (“Lode Gold” or the “Company”) announces adoption of semi-annual financial reporting (“SAR”). This news release is being issued and filed pursuant to Coordinated Blanket Order 51-933 Exemptions to Permit Semi-Annual Reporting for Certain Venture Issuers (“CBO 51-933”).

CBO 51-933 is a pilot program that permits eligible venture issuers to voluntarily move from quarterly to a semi-annual financial reporting framework. The Company has determined that it meets the eligibility criteria. By adopting SAR, Lode Gold aims to reduce the disproportionate administrative and financial burden associated with quarterly reporting that will allow management to optimally focus time and financial resources toward advancing the Company’s exploration and development projects and other business objectives.

As a result of adopting SAR, the Company will not file interim financial statements and related Management’s Discussion and Analysis (“MD&A”) for the three-month period ending March 31 and the nine-month period ending September 30 of each applicable fiscal year. Lode Gold will continue to file audited annual financial statements (due within 120 days of December 31) and six-month interim financial reports and related MD&A (due within 60 days of June 30). Should the Company cease to continue participating in the SAR pilot program, it will announce it in a future news release.

The Company remains committed to timely and transparent disclosure and will continue to provide timely disclosure regarding exploration progress, corporate developments, and other material information in accordance with Canadian securities regulations.
