ORVANA SUBSIDIARY IN BOLIVIA REPORTS Q3 FY2026 FINANCIAL RESULTS PR Newswire TSX:ORV OTCQX: ORVMF TORONTO , July 31, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Orvana Minerals Corp. (TSX: ORV) (OTCQX: ORVMF) ("Orvana" or the "Company") announces the filing at the Bolivian stock market by its subsidiary, Empresa Minera Paitií, S.A. (" EMIPA "), of its unaudited Financial Statements for the third quarter of the fiscal year 2026 (" Q3 FY2026 "), prepared in accordance with Bolivian generally accepted accounting principles (" Bolivian GAAP "). In September 2023, Autoridad de Supervisión del Sistema Financiero ("ASFI"), Bolivia's financial regulator, approved and registered EMIPA as an eligible bond issuer on the Bolivian stock market. As a registered bond issuer on the Bolivian stock market, EMIPA is required to file its quarterly financial statements with ASFI.

The unaudited Financial Statements for the period ended June 30, 2026 for EMIPA can be viewed at the following ASFI landing page (the "ASFI Page"): https://www.asfi.gob.bo/pb/entidades-inscritas-registro-del-mercado-valores To search for EMIPA's financial statements, select the following at the ASFI Page: Buscar: Empresa Minera Paitití, S.A. EMIPA Ver: Estados Financieros On June 29, 2026, Bolivia replaced its long-standing fixed exchange rate of Bs. 6.96 per U.S. dollar with a new exchange rate regime under which the official exchange rate is established daily by the Central Bank of Bolivia. The exchange rate set on the transition date was Bs. 9.73 per U.S. dollar.

EMIPA's unaudited Q3 FY2026 financial statements, prepared in accordance with Bolivian GAAP, reflect the preliminary impact of this exchange rate adjustment. EMIPA's Bond Programs in the Bolivian Market, as more fully described in the Company's most recently filed unaudited interim financial statements available on www.sedarplus.ca , are subject to certain financial covenant requirements that were tested as at June 30, 2026. The applicable covenant thresholds are set out below: EMIPA's financial results as at June 30, 2026 were affected by a number of factors, including certain external factors such as the accounting impact of Bolivia's transition to the new official exchange rate regime and delays in the start-up of the Oxides Stockpile Project resulting from social unrest and road blockages in May and June 2026.

These factors, among other matters, adversely affected EMIPA's financial covenant ratios. Consequently, based on its unaudited Q3 FY2026 financial statements prepared under Bolivian GAAP, EMIPA was not in compliance with the Debt Coverage Ratio, Third-Party Debt Coverage Ratio and Leverage Ratio covenants as at June 30, 2026. During the cure period, EMIPA is required to prepare and submit an action plan intended to address the covenant deficiencies.

The development, implementation and effectiveness of such plan, together with any other potential remedial measures, remain subject to ongoing evaluation and discussions with bondholders and other stakeholders. There can be no assurance that these efforts will successfully remedy the covenant deficiencies or otherwise result in a satisfactory outcome. The Company will provide further information regarding this matter in due course.

Orvana's consolidated Q3 FY2026 financial highlights will be released with the third quarter unaudited financials, expected mid-August, 2026.
