Latin Metals Inc. (“Latin Metals” or the “Company”) (TSXV: LMS) (OTCQB: LMSQF) is pleased to announce that holders of the Company’s outstanding common share purchase warrants have exercised 100% of 12,500,000 million warrants at an exercise price of $0.15 per common share, providing $1,875,000 million in proceeds to the Company.
asserted
holders → announce → Company
The warrant exercises provide Latin Metals with a meaningful addition to its treasury without undertaking a new equity financing and substantially reduces the Company’s near-term warrant overhang.
asserted
exercises → provide → overhang
The additional capital further strengthens Latin Metals’ financial position at a time when significant exploration expenditures across its portfolio are being funded at the project level by strategic partners under the Company’s prospect generator model.
asserted
expenditures → strengthen → model
Keith Henderson, President and CEO of Latin Metals, commented:
“The exercise of 100% of this warrant tranche represents a meaningful addition to Latin Metals’ treasury and demonstrates continued shareholder support for the Company.
asserted
exercise → comment → Company
Importantly, this capital is being added at a time when significant exploration expenditures across our portfolio continue to be funded by our partners.
asserted
expenditures → add → partners
Over the past two years, Latin Metals has significantly expanded the scale of partner-funded exploration and investment across its portfolio, increasing estimated total investment under option agreements from approximately $16 million to $179 million.
asserted
Metals → expand → million
”
Following the exercise of the September 2026 warrants, the Company will have 151,565,650 common shares issued and outstanding and 12,095,454 warrants remaining outstanding at an exercise price of $0.20.
asserted
Company → follow → 0.20
Latin Metals’ prospect generator strategy is designed to advance a diversified portfolio of copper, gold and silver exploration projects while securing well-funded partners to fund significant exploration expenditures at the project level.
asserted
strategy → design → level
This model allows Latin Metals to maintain exposure to multiple potential discoveries while preserving capital and limiting shareholder-funded exploration expenditures.
asserted
Metals → allow → expenditures
Over the past 24 months, Latin Metals has substantially increased the amount of third-party capital and exploration commitments associated with its project portfolio.
asserted
Metals → increase → portfolio
Between September 2024 and September 2026, total scheduled cash payments under option agreements increased from approximately $2.5 million to $21 million, while aggregate drilling meters under option agreements increased from 15,000 metres to 195,000 metres.
asserted
meters → increase → metres
Total potential investment under option agreements, including scheduled cash payments and estimated drill expenditures, increased from approximately $16 million to $179 million.
asserted
investment → include → million
Latin Metals’ market capitalization has grown by approximately 400% over 24 months to September 2026 - from $7 million in September 2024 to $35 million in September 2026.
asserted
capitalization → grow → September
At the same time, Latin Metals’ expenditures have remained relatively stable on an annual basis.
asserted
expenditures → remain → basis
This growth reflects the continued execution of Latin Metals’ prospect generator strategy, whereby the Company identifies and advances exploration opportunities before securing well-funded partners to assume a substantial portion of the high-cost exploration risk.
asserted
Company → reflect → risk
The model is intended to expand shareholder exposure to multiple exploration programs while limiting the amount of Latin Metals’ own capital required to fund drilling and other high-cost exploration activities.
asserted
model → intend → drilling
Regarding Figure 1 above, the figures presented for scheduled cash payments, drilling commitments and estimated investment under option agreements are based on the terms of the Company’s existing option agreements as at September 2026.
asserted
figures → regard → September
To the extent that those figures relate to future periods, they constitute forward-looking information and assume, among other things, that the applicable option agreements remain in effect, the applicable option holders continue to advance those agreements through the relevant stages, scheduled payments are made and contractual drilling commitments are completed.
asserted
commitments → relate → stages
Actual results may differ materially.
uncertain
results → differ → ?
In particular, an option holder may elect not to proceed to a subsequent stage; an option agreement may be terminated, amended, surrendered or otherwise not completed; the timing or amount of scheduled payments may change; committed drilling may not be completed; actual drilling costs may differ materially from assumed costs; and the timing or scope of exploration programs may change.
uncertain
timing → elect → programs
Accordingly, some or all of the cash payments, drilling commitments and estimated exploration investment illustrated in Figure 1 may not be received, completed or incurred, and the figures should not be interpreted as a forecast of amounts the Company expects to receive or expenditures that will necessarily be incurred.
uncertain
that → illustrate → amounts
Estimated investment attributable to drilling is based on assumed all-in drilling costs of approximately US$500 to US$700 per meter, depending on the project, based on costs observed at comparable projects, and actual costs may differ materially.
uncertain
costs → estimate → projects
Incoming cash payments include amounts paid or potentially payable directly to Latin Metals and, in certain cases, amounts paid or potentially payable under underlying option agreements.
asserted
payments → include → agreements
Total potential investment excludes discretionary top-up, buy-out and royalty buy-back payments.
asserted
investment → exclude → payments
Latin Metals’ expenditures may vary depending on the number, timing, cost and scope of future acquisitions and exploration programs.
uncertain
expenditures → vary → acquisitions
Market capitalization figures are approximate point-in-time estimates and are not based on VWAP.
asserted
figures → base → VWAP
