U.S. Gold Secures $31.2 Million Raise and Nears January Feasibility with $160.21 NPV

USAUUSAU

U.S. Gold’s fully permitted CK Gold Project in Wyoming enters January feasibility with record gold up 63.6% this year and NPV sensitivity at $160.21 per share. A $31.2 million equity raise extends funding to five years and underpins a Buy rating ahead of financing and mine construction catalysts.

1. Fully Permitted CK Gold Project Poised for Advancement

U.S. Gold Corp. holds the fully permitted CK Gold Project in Wyoming, covering approximately 23,000 contiguous acres. The company expects to publish its definitive feasibility study in January, which management projects will demonstrate an after‐tax net present value of roughly $160 per share equivalent at today’s gold price assumptions and an internal rate of return above 30%. The study will refine key parameters—including capital costs, production rates and permitting timelines—and may unlock additional value through potential sales of aggregate byproducts.

2. Strengthened Balance Sheet Extends Capital Runway

In December, U.S. Gold Corp. completed a $31.2 million equity raise that extended its capital runway to five to six years, covering pre‐production expenditures and early construction activities. Proceeds are earmarked for detailed engineering work, procurement of long‐lead items and community engagement programs. This funding round strengthens the company’s negotiating position with prospective debt providers and strategic partners as it moves toward construction financing.

3. Institutional Endorsement and Index Inclusion

Institutional interest has surged following inclusion in the Russell 2000 and 3000 indices earlier this quarter, driving increased trading volumes and analyst coverage. In response to these developments and stronger project economics, one major independent research firm upgraded its rating to Buy from Hold, citing improved debt financing prospects and a clear path to commercial production. U.S. Gold’s management team has since engaged with several large global mining funds and streaming companies to explore partnership opportunities.

4. Key Catalysts for 2026 Value Realization

Investors will focus on three principal catalysts in the coming months: publication of the feasibility study in January, completion of a comprehensive construction financing package by mid‐year, and commencement of mine construction in the third quarter. Each milestone has the potential to de‐risk the project, enhance valuation multiples and trigger re‐rating events as the company transitions from developer to producer.
