Titan Mining Reports Strong 2025 Results as Kilbourne Graphite Project Advances

Titan is positioning itself to establish the first domestic end-to-end natural graphite supply chain in the U.S. in over seventy years

GOUVERNEUR, N.Y., March 19, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Titan Mining Corporation (NYSE-A:TII, TSX:TI), (“Titan” or the “Company”) an established zinc concentrate producer in upstate New York and the only end-to-end producer of natural flake graphite in the U.S., today announced solid financial and operational results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2025.

Q4 AND FY 2025 HIGHLIGHTS⁽¹⁾⁽²⁾⁽³⁾

Operating and Financial Performance:

Zinc production: 18.7 million payable pounds in Q4 2025 and 64.3 million payable pounds for the full year, up 8% from FY 2024, representing record production at Empire State Mines (“ESM”) and achieving 2025 production guidance
Revenues: $25.1 million in Q4 2025 and $74.3 million for the full year, up 16% from $64.3 million in 2024
Cash costs: C1 cash costs of $0.88/lb in Q4 2025 and $0.92/lb for the full year, at the lower end of guidance
AISC: $0.96/lb in Q4 2025 and $0.98/lb for the full year, at the lower end of guidance
Operating cash flow: $5.5 million in Q4 2025 and $12.6 million for the full year
Liquidity: $17.5 million cash balance at year-end, strengthening Titan’s balance sheet, up 72% from 2024

Rita Adiani, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented: "2025 marked a pivotal year for Titan. We delivered record zinc production at ESM while advancing the Kilbourne Graphite Project toward commercial development. The demonstration plant produces graphite concentrate, and the Feasibility Study for the commercial-scale plant is underway. Titan is positioned to be the first domestic end-to-end natural flake graphite supplier in the United States in over seventy years. This is critical considering the defense and high-tech uses of graphite.

Supported by government, investor engagement and a strengthened balance sheet, we enter 2026 well-positioned to advance Kilbourne while maintaining disciplined growth and cash flow from our zinc operations."

Strategic and Corporate Developments:

Kilbourne Graphite Project: Preliminary Economic Assessment confirmed robust project economics, including after-tax NPV (7%) of $513 million, post-tax IRR of 37%, and 2.7-year payback. Commissioning of the graphite demonstration facility commenced in Q4 2025, with initial graphite concentrate shipments delivered in Q1 2026. A fully funded Feasibility Study for a 40,000 mt pa facility was launched in early 2026.
U.S. EXIM Support: Finalized a $15.8 million EXIM credit agreement supporting ESM expansion, together with an additional $5.5 million amendment to advance feasibility work at Kilbourne. Also received EXIM financing interest of up to $120 million for Kilbourne construction, representing the majority of the projected capital requirements.
Germanium Opportunity: Identified Germanium concentrations within the existing ESM zinc processing circuit, with recovery pathways currently under evaluation.
Exploration and Land Position: Expanded mineral tenure to more than 120,000 acres of the land package and advanced underground and surface exploration programs during 2025.
Balance Sheet Optimization: Fully repaid and extinguished the Company’s credit facility with National Bank of Canada and restructured $16.5 million of related-party debt, strengthening financial flexibility.
Capital Markets Milestones: Listed common shares on the NYSE American, with significant improvement in share liquidity, closed a $15 million private placement, and filed a Canadian base shelf prospectus and U.S. Form F-10 registration statement, following year end. These filings provide the Company flexibility, at its discretion, to raise up to $150 million over 25 months, including through a $50 million at-the-market program.

ZINC OPERATIONS REVIEW

Mining in Q4 2025 focused on the Lower Mahler, New Fold, and Mud Pond Apron zones. Higher mill feed grades, supported by the extraction of high-grade pillars in Lower Mahler and a high-grade stope in New Fold, offset the temporary suspension of mining in the lower-grade N2D zone earlier in the year and contributed to achieving full-year guidance of over 64 million payable pounds of zinc. During the year, additional mobile equipment was added to the underground fleet, supporting development across the #4 and #2 mines, with N2D expected to be reactivated in 2026.

GRAPHITE UPDATE

In Q4 2025, Titan released a Preliminary Economic Assessment confirming robust project economics and supporting advancement toward commercial development. Commissioning of the facility started in Q4 2025, and following the year-end, the Company began shipping graphite concentrate. The Company also launched a fully funded Feasibility Study for the proposed 40,000 tonne-per-year Kilbourne Graphite Project in early 2026.

EXPLORATION UPDATE

Zinc: A total of 35,049 ft of underground drilling across 98 holes was completed in 2025, targeting the Little York, Mahler, Mud Pond, N2D, and New Fold zones to support resource expansion and mine planning. Surface exploration totaled 9,556 ft across eight holes at various targets, including the Parish property, where drilling confirmed copper and gold mineralization. Assays are pending.

Kilbourne Graphite Project: Drilling at Kilbourne totaled 13,549 ft across 38 holes, targeting resource delineation and eastern extensions of the deposit. Drilling intersected graphite mineralization approximately 2,500 ft east and along strike of the current conceptual pit, supporting potential for further expansion.

Non-GAAP Performance Measures

This document includes non-GAAP performance measures, discussed below, that do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS. The performance measures may not be comparable to similar measures reported by other issuers. The Company believes that these performance measures are commonly used by certain investors, in conjunction with conventional GAAP measures, to enhance their understanding of the Company's performance. The Company uses these performance measures extensively in internal decision-making processes, including to assess how well ESM is performing and to assist in the assessment of the overall efficiency and effectiveness of the mine site management team. The tables below provide a reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable IFRS measures as contained within the Company's issued financial statements.

C1 Cash Cost Per Payable Pound Sold

C1 cash cost is a non-GAAP measure. C1 cash cost represents the cash cost incurred at each processing stage, from mining through to recoverable metal delivered to customers, including mine site operating and general and administrative costs, freight, treatment and refining charges.

The C1 cash cost per payable pound sold is calculated by dividing the total C1 cash costs by payable pounds of metal sold.

All-in Sustaining Costs
AISC measures the estimated cash costs to produce a pound of payable zinc plus the estimated capital sustaining costs to maintain the mine and mill. This measure includes the C1 cash cost and capital sustaining costs divided by pounds of payable zinc sold. AISC does not include depreciation, depletion, amortization, reclamation and exploration expenses.
