Falco Announces Early Warrant Exercise by Osisko Development Corp. and Additional Warrant Exercises Totaling Approximately $1.25 million

MONTRÉAL, July 07, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Falco Resources Ltd. (FPC: TSX-V) (“Falco” or the “Corporation”) is pleased to announce that it has received approximately $1.25 million in aggregate proceeds from the exercise of warrants, including $626,500 from the early exercise by Barkerville Gold Mines Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Osisko Development Corp. (collectively, “Osisko Development”).

Osisko Development exercised 1,790,000 warrants (the “Osisko Warrants”) to purchase common shares of the Corporation at a price of $0.35 per common share. The Osisko Warrants were received by Osisko Development in connection with the Corporation’s December 2024 private placement and were scheduled to expire in December 2029. Further to the exercise of the Osisko Warrants, Osisko Development’s interest in the Corporation’s common shares increased from 15.6% to 16.0%. The early exercise reflects Osisko Development’s continued support of Falco and the advancement of the Horne 5 Project.

The Corporation also received aggregate proceeds of $622,438 from the exercise of warrants to purchase common shares at a price of $0.35 which were issued in connection with the Corporation’s June 2024 private placement (the “June 2024 Warrants”). The proceeds from the exercise of the June 2024 Warrants include $61,600 from the exercise of June 2024 Warrants by the Corporation’s current directors and officers who had received June 2024 Warrants.

The Corporation intends to use the proceeds received from the warrant exercises for the advancement of the Horne 5 Project and for working capital and general corporate purposes.
