CCOI Investors Have Opportunity to Lead Cogent Communications Holdings, Inc. Securities Fraud Lawsuit

PR Newswire

NEW YORK, Aug. 13, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, reminds purchasers of common stock of Cogent Communications Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: CCOI) between February 29, 2024 and May 1, 2026, inclusive (the “Class Period”), of the important September 21, 2026 lead plaintiff deadline.

Rosen Law Firm Logo

So what: If you purchased Cogent Communications common stock during the Class Period you may be entitled to compensation without payment of any out of pocket fees or costs through a contingency fee arrangement.

What to do next: To join the Cogent Communications class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/cases/cogent-communications-holdings-inc-2026/join or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email [email protected] for information on the class action. A class action lawsuit has already been filed. If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than September 21, 2026. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation.

Why Rosen Law: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles. Often, firms issuing notices do not have comparable experience, resources, or any meaningful peer recognition. Many of these firms do not actually handle securities class actions, but are merely middlemen that refer clients or partner with law firms that actually litigate the cases. Be wise in selecting counsel. The Rosen Law Firm represents investors throughout the globe, concentrating its practice in securities class actions and shareholder derivative litigation. Rosen Law Firm has achieved the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company. Rosen Law Firm was Ranked No. 1 by ISS Securities Class Action Services for number of securities class action settlements in 2017. The firm has been ranked in the top 4 each year since 2013 and has recovered billions of dollars for investors. In 2019 alone the firm secured over $438 million for investors. In 2020, founding partner Laurence Rosen was named by law360 as a Titan of Plaintiffs’ Bar. Many of the firm’s attorneys have been recognized by Lawdragon and Super Lawyers.

Details of the case: According to the lawsuit, defendants throughout the Class Period made materially false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) the vast majority

of the purported orders in Cogent’s optical wavelength “backlog” were unlikely to ever result in a paid order; (2) large quantities of the customers in Cogent’s purported optical wavelength “backlog” were unable or unwilling to accept delivery even if Cogent was in a position to provision the wavelength in a timely manner; (3) as a result of the foregoing, defendants had materially misrepresented customer demand for Cogent’s optical wavelength services and the nature of Cogent’s purported “backlog” of wavelength orders; (4) as a result of the foregoing, Cogent was not on track to achieve its revenue and margin targets and such targets lacked a reasonable basis in objective fact; (5) Cogent did not have the financial capacity or business fundamentals to maintain its long-standing dividend policy; and (6) there was a material, undisclosed risk that defendant David Schaeffer would be forced to sell vast quantities of Cogent stock as a result of his high-risk pledging activities, thereby further depressing the price of Cogent stock in the event the truth regarding Cogent’s “backlog,” demand issues, and financial position were ever revealed. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages. 

To join the Cogent Communication class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/cases/cogent-communications-holdings-inc-2026/join or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email [email protected] for information on the class action.

No Class Has Been Certified. Until a class is certified, you are not represented by counsel unless you retain one. You may select counsel of your choice. You may also remain an absent class member and do nothing at this point. An investor’s ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff.

Weyerhaeuser Company logo. (PRNewsFoto/Weyerhaeuser Company)

Under Weyerhaeuser’s cash return framework, the company expects to supplement its quarterly base cash dividend, as appropriate, with an additional return of variable cash to achieve a targeted total return to shareholders of 75 to 80 percent of annual Adjusted Funds Available for Distribution (Adjusted FAD). The company has the flexibility in its capital allocation framework to return this additional cash in the form of a supplemental cash dividend, opportunistic share repurchases, or a combination of the two.

Adjusted FAD, a non-GAAP measure, is defined by Weyerhaeuser as net cash from operations adjusted for capital expenditures and significant non-recurring items.

For a more detailed description of OCREDIT’s investment guidelines and risk factors, please refer to the prospectus. Consider the investment objectives, risks, and charges and expenses carefully before investing or sending money. For a free prospectus containing this and other information, call 1-855-405-6488 or visit

www.ocreditfund.com

. Read it carefully.

OCREDIT is a BDC, which offers individual investors access to private lending, historically only accessible to institutions and high-net-worth investors. At least 70% of a BDC’s investments must be in U.S. private companies with less than $250 million in market capitalization.

OCREDIT is a non-exchange traded BDC that expects to invest at least 80% of its total assets (net assets plus borrowings for investment purposes) in private credit investments. An investment in OCREDIT involves a high degree of risk. An investor should purchase securities of OCREDIT only if they can afford the complete loss of the investment.

Neither the SEC nor any state securities regulator has approved or disapproved of these securities or determined if this prospectus is truthful or complete. Securities regulators have also not passed upon whether this offering can be sold in compliance with existing or future suitability or Regulation Best Interest standard to any or all purchasers.

For OCREDIT’s full historical performance figures, please visit https://www.troweprice.com/en/us/ocredit/performance for more information.

As of June 30, 2026, OCREDIT is available in 54 states and territories.

As of June 30, 2026, OCREDIT is not registered for offer or sale outside of the United States.

BDCs may charge management fees, incentive fees, as well as other fees associated with servicing loans. These fees will detract from the total return.   

OCREDIT may in certain circumstances invest in companies experiencing distress increasing the risk of default or failure.  OCREDIT is not listed on an exchange which heightens liquidity risk for an investor.  OCREDIT has limited prior operating history and there is no assurance that it will achieve its investment objectives. The Company’s public offering is a “blind pool” offering and thus investors will not have the opportunity to evaluate the Company’s investments before they are made.  Investors should not expect to be able to sell shares regardless of performance and should consider that they may not have access to the money invested for an extended period of time and may be unable to reduce their exposure in a market downturn. 

OCREDIT employs leverage, which increases the volatility of OCREDIT’s investments and will magnify the potential for loss. Fixed-income securities are subject to credit risk, call risk, and interest rate risk.  As interest rates rise, bond prices fall.  Investments in high-yield bonds involve greater risk than higher rated bonds.  International investments can be riskier than U.S. investments and subject to foreign exchange risk. These risks are magnified in emerging markets.  

OCREDIT is “non-diversified,” meaning it may invest a greater portion of its assets in a single company. OCREDIT’s share price can be expected to fluctuate more than that of a comparable diversified fund.  OCREDIT may invest in derivatives, which may be riskier or more volatile than other types of investments because they are generally more sensitive to changes in market or economic conditions.

Account opening and closing fees may apply depending on the amount invested and the timing of the account closure. There may be costs associated with the investments in the account such as periodic management fees, incentive fees, loads, other expenses or brokerage commissions. Fees for optional services may also apply.

Opinions and estimates offered herein constitute the judgment of OHA as of the date this document is provided to an investor and are subject to change as are statements about market trends. All opinions and estimates are based on assumptions, all of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond the control of OHA.

Diversification cannot assure a profit or protect against loss in a declining market. Potential investors are urged to consult a tax professional regarding the possible economic, tax, legal, or other consequences of investing in OCREDIT in light of their particular circumstances.

Valvoline Announces Pricing and Upsizing of Senior Notes Offering

LEXINGTON, Ky.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
Valvoline Inc. (“Valvoline”) (NYSE: VVV) announced today the pricing of its offering of $600,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 6.125% Senior Notes due 2034 (the “Notes”). The offering was upsized by $100,000,000 aggregate principal amount compared to the previously announced offering size of $500,000,000. The offering of the Notes is part of a leverage-neutral coordinated refinancing transaction intended to strengthen Valvoline’s debt maturity profile and enhance liquidity.

The Notes will be unsubordinated unsecured obligations of Valvoline. Each of Valvoline’s subsidiaries that guarantees Valvoline’s obligations under its senior secured credit facilities will guarantee the Notes on an unsubordinated unsecured basis. Valvoline intends to use the net proceeds from the offering to repay in full its senior secured term loan A facility and partially repay its senior secured term loan B facility, to pay related fees and expenses, and the remainder, if any, for general corporate purposes. The offering is expected to close on August 24, 2026, subject to customary closing conditions.

Concurrent with the offering, Valvoline intends to enter into an amendment to its existing revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facilities Amendment”) to, among other things, increase availability thereunder from $475 million to $600 million, reduce the pricing thereof and extend its maturity to the date that is five years after the amendment effective date. The Credit Facilities Amendment is expected to enhance Valvoline’s liquidity position, reduce borrowing costs and provide additional financial flexibility. The offering of Notes is not conditioned upon the effectiveness of the Credit Facilities Amendment.

The Notes will be offered to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and to non-U.S. persons outside the United States pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act. The Notes have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold in the United States without registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements.

This news release shall not constitute an offer to sell, or a solicitation of an offer to buy the Notes. No offer, solicitation or sale will be made in any jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.

Cariboo Gold Project – British Columbia, Canada (100%-owned)

Pre-Construction Activities

The Company continues to advance pre-construction activities, including certain surface infrastructure and underground development.

  • Water treatment plant: Upgrades to the Bonanza Ledge water treatment plant are complete. Final commissioning continues, with full operation expected in Q3 2026.
  • Underground development: Approximately 2.7 km of underground development has been completed to date. Underground development continues from the existing Cow Portal into the Lowhee Zone and along the main access ramp into the Cow Mountain Zone. Development reached the first access point into the Cow Mountain Zone where a dedicated drill gallery is being advanced to enable infill drilling to support resource conversion, which is expected to commence in Q3 2026 (see Figure 1). Development rates continue to improve as headings advance beyond the Lowhee fault into more favourable ground conditions. Progress through the Lowhee fault zone was below target due to enhanced ground support requirements. At the mine site complex, earthworks have commenced on the second underground access at the Valley Portal. Once established, the Valley Portal will provide a second development front and support critical path primary development access to the Valley and Shaft Zones, which host the majority of the Cariboo Gold deposit’s mineral reserves and mineral resources.
  • Surface infrastructure: Construction of the waste rock storage facility, the sediment control pond, and other critical infrastructure is progressing. Early works at the mine site complex, which will host the primary processing facility, commenced in Q2 2026 and include tree clearing and geotechnical drilling. Once excavation of the Valley Portal is sufficiently advanced, earthworks and foundation construction for the main water treatment plant are expected to commence in Q3 2026. Installation of the Willow River Bridge, which will provide the Project’s primary access once completed, is also expected to begin in Q3 2026.
  • Camp upgrade: The site camp upgrade and expansion to 358 rooms is complete and, together with other Company-controlled accommodations, is expected to provide sufficient capacity aligned with peak construction and exploration manpower requirements.
  • Project Readiness: Detailed engineering and procurement activities continue across key work streams supporting project readiness. Key areas of focus include process plant design work, site infrastructure and layout optimization, procurement of certain long-lead and major equipment packages, vendor engagement and technical bid evaluations, among others. In parallel, third-party reviews of key engineering, execution and cost inputs are also underway to further de-risk the Project and support a disciplined approach to construction readiness planning.

Infill Drilling Program

An infill drill program was completed as part of the Appian project financing obligations totaling approximately 13,684 metres. An additional 2,995 m of infill and near mine exploration drilling was released as part of ongoing Lowhee Zone underground drilling.

  • The Company completed a preliminary internal reconciliation analysis of two localized areas (Zones 1 and 2), comprising an aggregate total of 17,072 metres of infill drilling in 185 diamond drill holes, which illustrated deposit variability broadly consistent with expectations.
  • Relative to the existing short-term resource model, Zone 1 indicated approximately 30% more tonnes and 6% more gold ounces, at approximately 18% lower gold grade, while Zone 2 indicated approximately 8% fewer tonnes and 8% more gold ounces, at approximately 16% higher gold grade.1 (pg. 10)

Exploration and Conversion Drilling Programs

A multi-faceted exploration drilling campaign across the Cariboo Gold Project and regional targets is underway. The current and planned infill drilling has the objective of (a) supporting greater definition of the existing measured and indicated mineral resources and (b) upgrading inferred mineral resources to higher confidence categories and, where appropriate, potentially converting such resources into mineral reserves after considering applicable modifying factors. Up to 20 drill rigs are expected to be active at times throughout 2026 and beyond, as the various programs overlap and advance, representing up to approximately 160,000 metres of planned drilling across all targets. Thirteen drill rigs are currently operating across all programs, including three drills active underground.

  • A total of ten drill rigs are currently operating on four surface exploration programs, including three surface drill rigs targeting potential mineralization within and below the current extent of the Cariboo Gold deposit to depths of up to 1,000 metres. To date, approximately 19,215 metres of drilling have been completed, with assay results for 8,971 metres released. Assay results for the remaining drill holes are pending. Underground development of a dedicated drill gallery is progressing in the Cow Zone and is anticipated to support commencement of drilling from the first drill bay in Q3 2026.
  • A second surface exploration program on the adjacent Proserpine regional greenfield exploration target was ramped up to five drill rigs, with approximately 6,463 metres completed and released, when drilling was paused for caribou calving season. Drilling has recommenced in Q3 2026 with three drill rigs.
  • A third surface exploration program on the Yanks Peak target, which is helicopter supported, has also started with two drills in August 2026. The fourth surface exploration program started in Q3 2026 with two drills at the QR Mine.

Tintic Project – Utah, U.S.A. (100%-owned)

  • Small-Scale Processing and Test Mining Activities: In the second quarter, the Company continued small-scale heap leaching and direct shipping of mineralized material which generated sales of 5,547 ounces of gold including direct shipping of 4,879 tonnes at an average grade of 38.71 grams per tonne of gold with an average payability factor of 89.5%. An additional 2,954 tonnes of higher-grade mineralized material was stockpiled for direct shipping as of the end of Q2 2026 and was subsequently shipped for processing in July 2026. Test mining is anticipated to continue in Q3 and Q4 2026, and into 2027.
  • While management continues to evaluate options for the next steps at the Tintic Project, it is expected that limited activities beyond care and maintenance may occur on the Tintic Project from time to time, including any additional direct shipping of mineralized material from the Trixie test mine.

SUBSEQUENT TO Q2 2026

  • On July 8, 2026, the Company announced new drill results from eleven (11) surface diamond drill holes totaling 8,971 metres completed between December 2025 and April 2026 as part of an ongoing Cariboo Gold Deeps and near mine gap infill exploration program at the Cariboo Gold Project. Approximately 65% of drilling transected areas outside the current footprint of the Cariboo Gold deposit, and results confirmed the presence of high-grade mineralization to a maximum vertical depth below surface of 718 metres in IM-26-001.
  • On July 14, 2026, the Company changed its name from “Osisko Development Corp.” to “Osisko Gold Group Inc.” and changed the province of its registered office from Québec to Ontario. In connection with the name change, the Common Shares traded under its new trading symbol, “OGG”, at the start of trading on July 20, 2026 on each of the TSXV and the NYSE. In addition, the trading symbols for the Company’s common share purchase warrants also changed effective at market open on July 20, 2026: (i) warrants trading under “ODVWZ” on the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq“) and “ODV.WT.U” on the TSXV changed to “OGGWZ” and “OGG.WT.U”, respectively; and (ii) warrants trading on the TSXV under “ODV.WT.A” and “ODV.WT.V” changed to “OGG.WT.A”, and “OGG.WT.V”, respectively.
  • On July 22, 2026, the Company announced that, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Barkerville, it entered into a Support and Benefits Agreement (the “SupportAgreement“) with the District of Wells, British Columbia (the “District“), effective July 21, 2026, to support social and economic initiatives within the District in respect of the Cariboo Gold Project. Over its three-year term, the Support Agreement contemplates voluntary financial contributions by the Company of up to $3.0 million in aggregate, subject to the Company’s sole discretion and continued participation under the Support Agreement.
  • On July 23, 2026, the Company announced final results and preliminary internal reconciliation analysis of its previously completed infill drilling program in the Lowhee Zone of the Cariboo Gold Project. The preliminary internal reconciliation analysis of two localized areas, comprising an aggregate total of 17,072 metres of infill drilling in 185 diamond drill holes, illustrated deposit variability consistent with expectations, and is subject to ongoing evaluation and modelling.
  • On August 5, 2026, the Company announced the first set of new drilling results from fourteen (14) surface diamond drill holes totaling 6,463 metres completed between February and May 2026 as part of an ongoing exploration program on the Proserpine regional greenfield target, located within the broader Cariboo Gold Project property boundary. Results to date confirm the presence of an emerging gold mineralized system comprising high-grade structures and broader zones of lower-grade mineralization that may indicate potential for bulk mining methods.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS


Cautionary Statement Regarding Financing Risks

The Company’s development and exploration activities are subject to financing risks. As of the date hereof, the Company has exploration and development assets which may generate periodic revenues through test mining but has no mines in the commercial production stage that generate positive cash flows. The Company cautions that test mining at its operations could be suspended at any time. The Company’s ability to explore for and discover potential economic projects, and then to bring them into production, is highly dependent upon its ability to raise equity and debt capital in the financial markets. Any projects that the Company develops will require significant capital expenditures. To obtain such funds, the Company may sell additional securities including, but not limited to, the Company’s shares or some form of convertible security, the effect of which may result in a substantial dilution of the equity interests of the Company’s shareholders. Alternatively, the Company may also sell a part of its interest in an asset in order to raise capital. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to raise the funds required to continue its exploration programs and finance the development of any potentially economic deposit that is identified on acceptable terms or at all. The failure to obtain the necessary financing(s) could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s growth strategy, results of operations, financial condition and project scheduling.


Cautionary Statement Regarding Test Mining Not Supported by a Feasibility Study

Certain operations of the Company including prior test mining activities at the Tintic Project’s Trixie test mine, have operated without the benefit of a feasibility study including mineral reserves, demonstrating economic and technical viability, and, as a result, there may be increased uncertainty of achieving any particular level of recovery of material or the cost of such recovery. The Company cautions that, historically, such projects have a much higher risk of economic and technical failure. There is no guarantee that commercial production will commence, continue as anticipated or at all or that anticipated production costs will be achieved. The failure to commence or continue production could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s ability to generate revenue and cash flow to fund operations. Failure to achieve the anticipated production costs could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s cash flow and potential profitability.


Cautionary Statement to U.S. Investors

As a foreign private issuer under U.S. securities laws that files reports under the Canada-U.S. multijurisdictional disclosure system, the Company is permitted to prepare and report information regarding mineral properties, mineralization and estimates of mineral reserves and mineral resources, including the information in its technical reports, financial statements and MD&A, in accordance with Canadian reporting requirements, which are governed by NI 43-101. As such, such information concerning mineral properties, mineralization and estimates of mineral reserves and mineral resources, including the information in its technical reports, financial statements and MD&A, is not comparable to similar information made public by most companies subject to U.S. mineral property disclosure requirements of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“

SEC

“).

Further to recent amendments, U.S. mineral property disclosure requirements (the “

SEC Rules

“) are now governed by subpart 1300 of Regulation S-K under the U.S. Securities Act. Under the SEC Rules, the SEC now recognizes estimates of “measured mineral resources”, “indicated mineral resources” and “inferred mineral resources.” In addition, the SEC has amended its definitions of “proven mineral reserves” and “probable mineral reserves” to be “substantially similar” to the corresponding standards adopted by the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum, adopted by the CIM Council (“

CIM Standards

“), which is the required definition standard adopted by NI 43-101. While the SEC will now recognize “measured mineral resources”, “indicated mineral resources” and “inferred mineral resources”, U.S. investors should not assume that any part or all of the mineralization in these categories will ever be converted into a higher category of mineral resources or into mineral reserves. Mineralization described using these terms has a greater amount of uncertainty as to its existence and feasibility than mineralization that has been characterized as reserves. Accordingly, U.S. investors are cautioned not to assume that any measured mineral resources, indicated mineral resources, or inferred mineral resources that the Company reports are or will be economically or legally mineable. Further, “inferred mineral resources” have a greater amount of uncertainty as to their existence and as to whether they can be mined legally or economically. Therefore, U.S. investors are also cautioned not to assume that all or any part of the “inferred mineral resources” exist. Under NI 43-101, estimates of inferred mineral resources may not form the basis of feasibility or pre-feasibility studies or economic studies except for preliminary economic assessments. While the above terms are “substantially similar” to CIM Standards, there are differences in the definitions under the SEC Rules and the CIM Standards. Accordingly, there is no assurance any mineral reserves or mineral resources that the Company may report as “proven mineral reserves”, “probable mineral reserves”, “measured mineral resources”, “indicated mineral resources” and “inferred mineral resources” under NI 43-101 would be the same had the Company prepared the reserve or resource estimates under the SEC Rules.


Risks related to the development of the Cariboo Gold Project

The development of a new mining operation, including the construction of processing facilities, tailings storage infrastructure, access roads, power supply and other supporting infrastructure, is a complex and costly undertaking. The Cariboo Gold Project remains in the development stage and there is no certainty that it will be brought into commercial production within anticipated timelines, at anticipated costs, or at all. The results of the Cariboo Technical Report are based on a number of assumptions, including, among others, geological interpretations, estimated mineral resources and mineral reserves, metallurgical recoveries, construction schedules, capital and operating costs, labour and equipment availability, transportation and energy costs, regulatory requirements, and projected commodity prices. These assumptions are inherently uncertain and may prove to be inaccurate.

Actual results, costs and development timelines may differ materially from those currently anticipated due to factors such as: unforeseen geological conditions; changes to mine plan optimization; equipment failures; shortages of skilled labour and contractors; increases in the cost of materials, equipment or energy; design modifications; delays related to permitting or receipt of government approvals; adverse weather or climate conditions; and community and/or Indigenous opposition. In addition, the development of mining projects often requires substantial capital expenditures, and delays or cost overruns may require the Company to seek additional financing, which may not be available on favorable terms or at all. If the Company is unable to complete construction and development of the Cariboo Gold Project on a timely and cost-effective basis, or if operating performance following commissioning is materially lower than expected, the project may fail to achieve anticipated economic results. Any such events could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

the anticipated benefits (if any) of the Support and Benefits Agreement with the District of Wells; assumptions, qualifications and parameters underlying the Cariboo Technical Report (including, but not limited to, the mineral resources, mineral reserves, production profile, mine design and project economics); the ability of the Company to achieve the estimates outlined in the Cariboo Technical Report in the timing contemplated (if at all); the ability to achieve the capital and operating costs outlined in the Cariboo Technical Report (if at all); management’s perceptions of historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments; future mining activities; the ability and timing for the Cariboo Gold Project to reach commercial production (if at all); sustainability and environmental impacts of operations at the Company’s properties; future gold prices; the costs required to advance the Company’s properties; regulatory framework remaining defined and understood; and any other information herein that is not a historical fact may be “forward looking information”.

Osisko Gold considers its assumptions to be reasonable based on information currently available but cautions the reader that their assumptions regarding future events, many of which are beyond the control of Osisko Gold, may ultimately prove to be incorrect since they are subject to risks and uncertainties that affect Osisko Gold and its business. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to: the absence of further work stoppages or suspensions at the Cariboo Gold Project; risks relating to third-party approvals, including the issuance of permits by governments, favourable regulatory conditions and approvals, capital market conditions and the Company’s ability to access capital on terms acceptable to the Company for the contemplated exploration and development at the Company’s properties; the absence of unforeseen ground conditions or other geological challenges; the ability to continue current operations and exploration; regulatory framework and presence of laws and regulations that may impose restrictions on mining; errors in management’s geological modelling; the timing and ability of the Company to obtain and maintain required approvals and permits; the results of exploration activities; the availability of necessary equipment, supplies and infrastructure; risks relating to exploration, development and mining activities; the global economic climate; fluctuations in metal and commodity prices; fluctuations in the currency markets; dilution; environmental risks; and community, non-governmental and governmental actions and the impact of stakeholder actions. Osisko Gold is confident a robust consultation process was followed in relation to its received BC Mines Act and Environmental Management Act permits for the Cariboo Gold Project and continues to actively consult and engage with Indigenous nations and stakeholders. While any party may seek to have the decision related to the BC Mines Act and/or Environmental Management Act permits reviewed by the courts, the Company does not expect that such a review would, were it to occur, impact its ability to proceed with the construction and operation of the Cariboo Gold Project in accordance with the approved BC Mines Act and Environmental Management Act permits. Readers are urged to consult the disclosure provided under the heading “Risk Factors” in the Company’s annual information form for the year ended December 31, 2025 as well as those risks and factors disclosed in the Company’s most recent financial statements and management’s discussion and analysis and other public filings filed under Osisko Gold’s issuer profile on SEDAR+ (www.sedarplus.ca) and on the SEC’s EDGAR website (www.sec.gov), for further information regarding the risks and other factors facing the Company, its business and operations. Although the Company believes the expectations conveyed by the forward-looking statements are reasonable based on information available as of the date hereof, no assurances can be given as to future results, levels of activity and achievements. The Company disclaims any obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or results or otherwise, except as required by law. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of performance and there can be no assurance that these forward-looking statements will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.

Readers are cautioned that the foregoing list of assumptions, risks and uncertainties is not exhaustive. The forward-looking statements contained herein are made as of the date of this news release and, except as required by applicable law, the Company undertakes no obligation to update publicly or to revise any of the forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Message from Management

During the first half of 2026, Afya continued to execute its strategy with discipline, delivering revenue growth while advancing the investment cycle outlined for the year. The resilience of our Medical Education business supported another quarter of profitable growth and strong cash generation.

In Undergraduate, Revenue reached R$1,762.2 million in the first half of 2026, a 7.4% year-on-year increase, driven by our Medical School and Health Sciences undergraduate programs. Revenue from Medical Schools totaled R$1,499.4 million in the first half, a 6.5% increase year-on-year, supported by a 3.9% increase in Medical School net average ticket and the continued expansion of our medical student base, which expanded 2.7% year-over-year from 25,733 to 26,421 students. Revenue was further supported by the continued expansion of our Health Sciences student base, which grew 18.0% year-over-year from 25,718 to 30,350 students, reflecting the diversification of our health-related undergraduate portfolio and the strength of Afya’s brand within the health segment.

In Continuing Education, Revenue reached R$143.9 million in the first half, a 4.6% increase year-on-year, driven by a higher intake in short-term programs that carry a lower average ticket per student. The total base reached 56,237, a 23.6% year-on-year increase. In Medical Practice Solutions, Revenue reached R$85.3 million in the first half, a 1.5% increase year-on-year. Clinical Management active payers grew 20.4% year-on-year to 50,499, reflecting the continued execution of the product investment cycle in our 2026 strategy.

Our capital allocation discipline remains grounded in value creation. We continuously evaluate acquisition opportunities and deploy capital only when transactions meet our strategic and financial return thresholds. When opportunities do not satisfy these criteria, we return excess capital to shareholders through dividends and our share repurchase program. Supported by our strong cash generation, this approach resulted in R$447.9 million returned to shareholders in the first half of 2026, of which R$314.9 million was distributed as dividends, equivalent to 40% of Afya’s 2025 consolidated net income, and R$133.0 million was deployed in share repurchases, representing 2.7 million shares or approximately 3% of total shares outstanding under our current buyback program. This amount represents 106% of 1H26 Free Cash Flow to Equity, while Net Debt excluding IFRS16 remained broadly stable compared to December 2025. This discipline, combined with our earnings trajectory, translates into a compelling return profile: our last twelve months free cash flow to equity yield of 11% and EPS growth of 13% combine to imply a 24% potential annual equity return at a constant valuation multiple.

Looking ahead, we remain confident in the strength of our strategy and the quality of our platform. We will keep investing in our ecosystem, supporting physicians at every stage of their careers, and creating sustainable value for students, physicians and shareholders.

1. Key Events in the Quarter

  • On May 5, 2026, Moody’s reaffirmed Afya’s credit rating at AAA.br and maintained a stable outlook. The reaffirmation of Afya’s AAA.br rating and stable outlook reflects revenue growth, a track record of above-industry-average margins, very strong credit metrics, exceptional cash generation, and robust liquidity. In addition, Afya’s credit profile reflects a strong competitive position and a predictable financial policy, including proactive liability management and prudent capital allocation, despite its appetite for M&As.

2. Subsequent Events

  • On July 29, 2026, the Company announced that Marcelo Ken Suhara was appointed, on July 27, 2026, as Chair Member of its Audit, Risks and Ethics Committee.

    The appointment follows the passing of João Paulo Seibel de Faria, who served as the Chair Member of the Audit, Risks and Ethics Committee and as an independent member of the Company’s Board of Directors. The Company expresses its deepest gratitude to Mr. Faria for his dedication, leadership and meaningful contributions to Afya’s governance and long-term success throughout his tenure. The Board of Directors and management team extend their sincere condolences to Mr. Faria’s family and loved ones.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA reached R$406.5 million in the second quarter of 2026, an increase of 1.4% year over year, while Adjusted EBITDA Margin was 41.8%, down 180 basis points from the prior-year period. For the first half of 2026, Adjusted EBITDA totaled R$918.0 million, up 2.8% year over year, with an Adjusted EBITDA Margin of 46.2%, down 190 basis points.

The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA Margin primarily reflects a lower gross profit contribution from Continuing Education, driven by a less favorable revenue mix, as well as higher payroll, sales, and marketing expenses associated with the investment cycle across Continuing Education and Medical Practice Solutions.

7. Forward – Looking Statements

This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, which statements involve substantial risks and uncertainties. All statements other than statements of historical fact could be deemed forward-looking, including risks and uncertainties related to statements about our competition; our ability to attract, upsell and retain students; our capacity to increase tuition prices; our ability to anticipate and meet the evolving needs of students and teachers; our capacity to source and successfully integrate acquisitions; as well as general market, political, economic, and business conditions. Additionally, these statements include financial targets such as revenue, share count and IFRS and non-IFRS financial measures including gross margin, operating margin, net income (loss) per diluted share, and free cash flow. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and undue reliance should not be placed on them.

The Company assumes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements made in this press release to reflect events or circumstances occurring after its publication, nor to incorporate new information or the occurrence of unanticipated events, except as required by law. The achievement or success of the matters covered by such forward-looking statements involves known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions. If any of these risks or uncertainties materialize or if any of the assumptions prove incorrect, our results could differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements we make.

Readers should not rely upon forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Forward-looking statements represent management’s beliefs and assumptions only as of the date they are made. Further information on these and other factors that could affect the Company’s financial results is included in filings made with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) from time to time, including the section titled “Risk Factors” in the most recent annual report on Form 20-F.

8. Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement the Company’s consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with IFRS accounting standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board—IASB, Afya presents Adjusted EBITDA and Operating Cash Conversion Ratio which are non-GAAP financial measures, for the convenience of investors. A non-GAAP financial measure is generally defined as one that intends to measure financial performance but excludes or includes amounts that would not be equally adjusted in the most comparable GAAP measure.

Afya calculates Adjusted EBITDA as net income plus/minus net financial result, plus income taxes expense, plus depreciation and amortization, plus interest received on late payments of monthly tuition fees, plus share-based compensation, plus/minus income share associate, plus/minus non-recurring expenses/income. Operating Cash Conversion Ratio is calculated as the Cash flow from Operating Activities plus income taxes paid, minus/plus non-recurring expenses/income divided by Adjusted EBITDA.

Free Cash Flow to Equity is calculated as the change in Net Debt ex-IFRS 16 between the beginning of the current period and the end of the current period, plus cash paid for acquisitions of subsidiaries or business combinations, plus dividends paid to the Company’s shareholders, plus cash used in treasury share repurchases.

The non-GAAP supplemental financial measures are provided with the intend to help investors in assessing the overall performance of Afya’s business regarding its core operations, cash generation and profitability. The non-GAAP financial measures described in this release are not substitutes for the IFRS measures. In addition, the calculations of Adjusted EBITDA and Operating Cash Conversion Ratio are not standardized financial measures and may differ from the calculations used by other companies, including competitors in the education services industry, and therefore, Afya’s measures may not be comparable to those of other companies.
