Summary of Results

Royalty Revenue - Ermitaño Royalty, Sonora, Mexico

The Ermitaño Mine forms part of First Majestic's Santa Elena mine complex, which includes both the Santa Elena and Ermitaño operations. The Company's royalty area of interest applies solely to the Ermitaño concessions.

For the three-month period ended June 30, 2026, the Company recorded $3.2 million (2025 - $2.1 million) in royalty revenue generated from the Ermitaño mine. This represents 516 gold equivalent ounces (2025 - 467 GEOs), a 1% reduction from last quarter and a 11% increase from 2025, based on an average price of US$4,506 (2025 - US$3,280) per ounce.

Production during the second quarter of 2026 included 305,369 tonnes of ore processed, representing a 13% increase compared to 269,830 tonnes in Q2-2025. The average silver and gold head grades were 61 grams per tonne ("g/t") and 2.3 g/t, respectively, representing an 11% increase and 9% decrease, respectively. Average gold grades during the current quarter reflect a reduced cut-off grade compared to Q2-2025 in response to a stronger metal price environment. Silver and gold recoveries during the quarter averaged 71% and 95%, respectively, compared to 64% and 94% in Q2-2025. Higher recoveries were a result of optimized blending process.

Royalty revenue from the Ermitaño mine is expected to moderate in the second half of 2026 as First Majestic resumed production at the Santa Elena mine on May 15, 2026, ending a mining suspension that had been in place since Q4-2022. Portal construction and drilling at the Navidad deposit on the Ermitaño concession, continues to advance from resource definition toward underground development with the potential to materially extend the life of the Santa Elena mine complex².

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses totaled $1.0 million in Q2‑2026, representing a 41% decrease compared to Q2‑2025. This reduction was primarily driven by reduction in salary and marketing expenses, along with an unrealized foreign exchange gain in the current quarter resulting from the strengthening of the U.S. dollar against the Canadian dollar, which increased the value of the Company's U.S. dollar‑denominated cash holdings.

Forward Looking Information

This news release includes certain statements that may be deemed "forward looking statements". All statements in this presentation, other than statements of historical facts, that address events or developments that Orogen Royalties Inc. (the "Company") expect to occur, are forward looking statements. Forward looking statements are statements that are not historical facts and are generally, but not always, identified by the words "expects", "plans", "anticipates", "believes", "intends", "estimates", "projects", "potential" and similar expressions, or that events or conditions "will", "would", "may", "could" or "should" occur.

Investors are cautioned that any such statements are not guarantees of future performance and actual results or developments may differ materially from those projected in the forward looking statements. Forward looking statements are based on the beliefs, estimates and opinions of the Company's management on the date the statements are made. Except as required by securities laws, the Company undertakes no obligation to update these forward looking statements in the event that management's beliefs, estimates or opinions, or other factors, should change.

Forward-looking statements are based on several material assumptions, which management of the Company believe to be reasonable, including, but not limited to, the continuation of mining operations in respect of which the Company will receive NSR royalty payments, that the commodity prices will not experience a material adverse change, mining operations that underlie the royalty will operate in accordance with the disclosed parameters and other assumptions may be set out herein.

Except where otherwise stated, the disclosure in this news release relating to properties and operations in which Orogen holds a royalty are based on information publicly disclosed by the owners or operators of these properties and information/data available in the public domain as at the date hereof, and none of this information has been independently verified by Orogen. Specifically, as a royalty holder and prospect generator, the Company has limited, if any, access to properties on which it holds royalty or other interests in its asset portfolio. The Company may from time to time receive operating information from the owners and operators of the mining properties, which it is not permitted to disclose to the public. Orogen is dependent on, (i) the operators of the mining properties and their qualified persons to provide information to Orogen, or (ii) on publicly available information to prepare disclosure pertaining to properties and operations on the properties on which the Company holds royalty or other interests, and generally has limited or no ability to independently verify such information. Although the Company does not have any knowledge that such information may not be accurate, there can be no assurance that such third-party information is complete or accurate. Some reported public information in respect of a mining property may relate to a larger property area than the area covered by Orogen's royalty or other interest. Orogen's royalty or other interests may cover less than 100% of a specific mining property and may only apply to a portion of the publicly reported mineral reserves, mineral resources and or production from a mining property.

Non-IFRS Measures

The Company has included certain results in this news release that do not have any standardized meaning prescribed by International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") including total GEOs sold, average realized gold price per GEO, and cash flow from operating activities excluding changes in non-cash working capital adjustments. The Company's royalty revenue is converted to a gold equivalent ounce by dividing the royalty revenue received during the period by the average gold price of the period. The Company has also used the non-IFRS measure of operating cash flows excluding changes in non-cash working capital. This measure is calculated by adding back the decrease or subtracting the increase in changes in non-cash working capital to or from cash provided by (used in) operating activities.
