NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES NEWS WIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES

CALGARY, Alberta, Aug. 21, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Integral Metals Corp. (CSE: INTG | OTC: ITGLF | FSE: ZK9) (the “Company” or “Integral”) is pleased to announce a non-brokered private placement of units of the Company (each, a “Unit”) at a price of C$0.40 per Unit for aggregate gross proceeds of up to C$1,250,000 (the “Offering”).

Each Unit will consist of one common share of the Company to be issued as a “flow-through share” within the meaning of the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the “Tax Act”) (each, an “FT Share”) and one transferable common share purchase warrant of the Company (each whole warrant, a “Warrant”). Each Warrant will entitle the holder to acquire one non-flow-through common share of the Company (each, a “Warrant Share”) at an exercise price of C$0.50 per Warrant Share for a period of 18 months from the date of issuance.

The gross proceeds from the issuance of the FT Shares will be used to incur eligible “Canadian exploration expenses” that are intended to qualify as “flow-through mining expenditures”, as those terms are defined in the Tax Act, on the Company’s mineral properties, including the Company’s KAP Project. The Company intends to renounce those expenses to the initial purchasers of the FT Shares with an effective date no later than December 31, 2026, in an aggregate amount not less than the gross proceeds raised from the issuance of the FT Shares.

The Offering is expected to close on or about September 14, 2026. Closing of the Offering is subject to the receipt of all necessary corporate and regulatory approvals. All securities issued in connection with the Offering will be subject to a statutory hold period of four months and one day from the applicable date of issuance.

This news release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any securities in the United States. The securities referred to in this news release have not been, and will not be, registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “U.S. Securities Act”), or any U.S. state securities laws, and may not be offered or sold in the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. persons absent registration under the U.S. Securities Act and applicable U.S. state securities laws or an available exemption from those registration requirements.
