News provided by Luca Mining Corp. May 14, 2026, 16:30 ET Share this article Share to X Share this article Share to X VANCOUVER, BC , May 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ - Luca Mining Corp. ("Luca" or the "Company") (TSXV: LUCA) (OTCQX: LUCMF ) (Frankfurt: Z68) is pleased to announce its intention to launch a normal course issuer bid ("NCIB"), under which it may purchase up to an aggregate 13,750,000 common shares of the Company ("Common Shares") for cancellation, representing approximately 5% of the current issued and outstanding Common Shares. The NCIB is expected to commence on May 21, 2026, and will terminate on May 20, 2027, or on an earlier date in the event that the maximum number of Common Shares sought under the NCIB have been repurchased. Purchases under the NCIB are expected to be conducted pursuant to open market transactions through the facilities of the TSX Venture Exchange (the "TSXV") and all available Canadian markets and alternative trading platforms at prevailing market prices at the time of acquisition, through Stifel Nicolaus Canada Inc., and made in accordance with the policies of the TSXV and the requirements of those Canadian markets and alternative trading platforms.

All Common Shares purchased under the NCIB will be returned to treasury and cancelled. The Company's management and Board of Directors believe that the current market price of the Common Shares does not adequately reflect the underlying value of the Company, particularly in light of its ability to generate free cash flow, self-fund certain expansion initiatives, and the replacement value of its assets. Accordingly, management of the Company considers the NCIB as an appropriate and efficient use of capital.

The Company is not obligated to purchase any specific number of shares under the NCIB. The timing and extent of any purchases will depend on market conditions and other corporate considerations, as determined by management. The Company may suspend or terminate the NCIB at any time.

The Company has not previously completed an NCIB. About Luca Mining Corp. Luca Mining Corp.
