Notes to the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements

​

1) Nature of operations and basis of presentation

Trilogy Metals Inc. (“Trilogy” or the “Company”) was incorporated in British Columbia, Canada under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) on April 27, 2011. The Company is engaged in the exploration and development of mineral properties, through its equity investee Ambler Metals LLC (“Ambler Metals”), with a focus on the Upper Kobuk Mineral Projects (“UKMP”), including the Arctic and Bornite Projects located in Northwest Alaska in the United States of America. The Company also conducts early-stage exploration through a wholly owned subsidiary, 995 Exploration Inc.

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) and include the accounts of Trilogy and its wholly owned subsidiaries, NovaCopper US Inc. and 995 Exploration Inc. All intercompany transactions are eliminated on consolidation.

As these condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not contain all of the disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements, these condensed interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2025 (“Annual Report on Form 10-K”).

2) Summary of significant accounting policies

Investment in Ambler Metals LLC

The Company accounts for its investment in Ambler Metals as an investment in associate. For a variable interest entity (“VIE”) where Trilogy is not the primary beneficiary, we use the equity method of accounting. Management assesses the possibility of impairment in the carrying value of its equity method investment in Ambler Metals whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the investment may not be recoverable. Ambler Metals is a non-publicly traded equity investment owning exploration and development projects. Significant judgments are made in assessing the possibility of impairment. The Company assesses whether there has been a potential triggering event for other-than-temporary impairment by assessing the underlying assets of Ambler Metals for recoverability and assessing whether there has been a change in the development plan or strategy for the projects. If the Company concludes there is sufficient evidence of an other-than-temporary impairment, an assessment of fair value is performed. If the underlying assets are not recoverable, the Company will record an impairment charge equal to the difference between the carrying amount of the equity investment and its fair value. This assessment is subjective and requires consideration at each period end.

Fair value measurement of derivative liability

On October 6, 2025, the Company entered into a binding letter of intent with the U.S. Department of War for their conditional investment of approximately $17.8 million in exchange for 8,215,570 units at a price of $2.17 per unit, with each unit comprising one common share of the Company and ¾ of a 10-year warrant. Each full warrant is exercisable to acquire one common share of the Company at a price of $0.01 per share. The Company has accounted for the obligation to issue shares and warrants as a derivative financial instrument under ASC 815-40 and initially measured at fair value. Subsequently, at each period end, the derivative liability is re-measured at fair value with changes recorded in the consolidated statement of loss and comprehensive loss.

​

Stock-based payments

The Company records share-based compensation awards exchanged for employee, director and certain contractor services at fair value on the date of the grant and expenses the awards over the requisite service period. The fair values of stock options are determined at the time of the grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model, which takes into account, as of the grant date, the fair market value of the shares, expected volatility, expected dividend yield, the risk-free interest rate, and the expected life of the option. The Company’s estimates may be impacted by certain variables including, but not limited to, stock price volatility, employee stock option exercise behaviors, additional stock option grants, and estimates of forfeitures.

New accounting pronouncements

Issued and Not Effective

In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-09 “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures” (“ASU 2023-09”). ASU 2023-09 enhances the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures through changes to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. The standard is effective beginning with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2026, and subsequent interim periods, with early adoption permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of ASU 2023-09 on its disclosures in the annual consolidated financial statements.

In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11 “Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow Scope Improvements” (“ASU 2025-11”), to improve the guidance for interim reporting and clarify when that guidance is applicable. ASU 2025-11 provides a comprehensive list of required disclosures and also requires entities to disclose events since the last annual reporting period that have a material impact on the entity. ASU 2025-11 is effective for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. For the Company, the guidance becomes effective in the first interim reporting period of the fiscal period of the fiscal year ended November 30, 2029. Early adoption is permitted. Management is currently evaluating ASU 2025-11 to determine its impact on the Company’s disclosures.

3) Investment in Ambler Metals LLC

(a) | Formation of Ambler Metals LLC

On February 11, 2020, the Company completed the formation of Ambler Metals, a 50/50 joint venture with South32 Limited (“South32”). As part of the formation of the joint venture, Trilogy contributed all its assets associated with the UKMP, including the Arctic and Bornite Projects, while South32 contributed cash of $145.0 million, resulting in each party’s subsidiaries directly owning a 50% interest in Ambler Metals.

Ambler Metals is a company jointly controlled by Trilogy and South32 through a four-member board, of which two members are appointed by Trilogy based on its 50% equity interest. All significant decisions related to the UKMP require the approval of both companies. We determined that Ambler Metals is a VIE because it is expected to need additional funding from its owners for its significant activities. However, we concluded that we are not the primary beneficiary of Ambler Metals as the power to direct its activities, through its board, is shared under the Ambler Metals LLC limited liability company agreement. As we have significant influence over Ambler Metals through our representation on its board, we use the equity method of accounting for our investment in Ambler Metals. Our maximum exposure to loss in this entity is limited to the carrying amount of our investment in Ambler Metals, which, as of May 31, 2026, totaled $112.1 million (November 30, 2025 - $105.3 million).

(b) | Lease liabilities

The Company’s lease arrangement consists of an operating lease for the corporate office. On July 1, 2024, the Company entered into a four-year lease for office space expiring in June 2028. The lease has no extension option. The current monthly lease payment is approximately CDN$9,500 consisting of both base rent and variable operating costs.

Total lease expense recorded within general and administrative expenses was comprised of the following components:

​

Variable lease costs consist primarily of the Company’s portion of operating costs associated with the office space lease as the Company elected to apply the practical expedient not to separate lease and non-lease components. For the six-month period ended May 31, 2025, variable lease costs have been reduced by a refund received for adjusted operating costs.

(b) | Restricted Share Units and Deferred Share Units

The Company has a Restricted Share Unit Plan (the “RSU Plan”) to provide long-term incentives to employees and consultants, a Non-Executive Director Deferred Share Unit Plan and a Non-Executive Directors Fixed Deferred Share Unit Plan (together, the “DSU Plans”) to offset cash payments for fees to directors. Awards under the RSU Plan and DSU Plans will be settled in common shares of the Company with each restricted share unit (“RSU”) and deferred share unit (“DSU”) entitling the holder to receive one common share of the Company. All units are accounted for as equity-settled awards.

A summary of the Company’s unit plans and changes during the six-month period ended May 31, 2026 is as follows:

​

​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
​ | ​ ​ ​ | Number of RSUs | ​ | ​ | Number of DSUs | ​
Balance – beginning of the year | ​ | 1,798,338 | ​ |  | 3,560,305 | ​
Granted |  | 301,339 | ​ | ​ | 20,557 | ​
Settled in common shares |  | (1,248,007) | ​ | ​ | — | ​
Balance – end of the period |  | 851,670 | ​ |  | 3,580,862 | ​

​

During the six-month period ended May 31, 2026, the Company issued 1,248,007 common shares to settle previously granted and vested RSUs to employees and consultants.

For the three-month period ended May 31, 2026, the Company recognized a combined RSU and DSU stock-based compensation charge of $0.2 million (2025 - $0.2 million) and $1.0 million for the six-month period ended May 31, 2026 (2025 - $1.6 million), net of estimated forfeitures.

7) Fair value accounting

Financial instruments measured at fair value are classified into one of three levels in the fair value hierarchy according to the significance of the inputs used in making the measurement. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;

Level 2 – Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and

Level 3 – Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (supported by little or no market activity).

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, deposits, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities and the derivative liability. The fair value of the Company’s financial instruments other than derivative liability approximates their carrying value due to the short-term nature of their maturity. The Company’s financial instruments initially measured at fair value and then held at amortized cost include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, deposits, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities. The majority of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents is held with two Canadian Financial Institutions and is uninsured as at May 31, 2026.

The derivative liability representing the Company’s obligation to issue shares and warrants to the U.S. Department of War is carried at fair value on a recurring basis. The fair value of the derivative liability is valued on the basis of Level 3 inputs. The estimated fair value at May 31, 2026 of $34.5 million (November 2025 - $30.7 million) is based on the Company’s common stock price of $4.63 at that date, volatility of 82.07%, a risk-free rate of 3.63% and management’s estimate of the equal probability of completion and non-completion of the Ambler Access Project, which is beyond the control of the Company. During the six-month ended May 31, 2026, the Company recorded a fair value loss of $3.8 million primarily reflecting a small increase in the Company’s share price in the period. A 10% change in the Company’s stock price affects the gain or loss on the derivative liability by approximately $5.2 million at May 31, 2026. A 10% change in management’s estimate of the likelihood of completion affects the gain or loss on the derivative liability by approximately $1.4 million at May 31, 2026. On March 30, 2026, the Company, South32, Ambler Metals and the United States Department of War agreed to enter into an amendment to the previously disclosed binding letter of intent (“LOI”) dated October 6, 2025. The first amendment extended the completion date of the transaction from March 31, 2026 to May 31, 2026. On May 30, 2026, the parties entered into a second amendment to extend the completion date of the transaction from May 31, 2025 to July 31, 2026. All other terms and conditions of the original LOI remain unchanged.

8) Commitment

The Company has commitments with respect to an office lease requiring future minimum lease payments as summarized in note 5(b) above.

10) Segment Information

The Company’s operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to its Chief Operating Decision Makers (“CODM”). The CODM, who are responsible for allocating resources and assessing the performance of the operating segments, have been identified as the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. The CODM evaluates the Company’s performance based on the overall results of the Company, including the performance of its investment Ambler Metals, which holds the Upper Kobuk Mineral Projects in Alaska. The Company uses a single U.S. GAAP-consistent measure of segment profit or loss with no reconciling items or measurement differences. Management has concluded that consolidated net income (loss) is the appropriate measure of segment of profit or loss. The CODM does not regularly receive or review discrete segment-level expense categories separate from those presented in the consolidated statements of operations. Accordingly, no significant segment expenses are separately disclosed, as all expenses are included within the consolidated statement of loss.

Cautionary notes

Forward-looking statements

This Management’s Discussion and Analysis (“MD&A”) contains “forward-looking information” and “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, Section 21E of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and other applicable securities laws. These forward-looking statements may include statements regarding the Company’s (as defined below) work programs and budgets; the aggregate value of common shares that may be issued pursuant to the Company’s at-the-market equity program (the “Nov ATM Program”) and the anticipated use of net proceeds; perceived merit of properties; exploration results and budgets; the Company and Ambler Metals’ funding requirements; mineral reserves and resource estimates; work programs, capital expenditures, operating costs, cash flow estimates, production estimates and similar statements relating to the economic viability of a project; timelines, strategic plans, statements regarding Ambler Metals’ plans and expectations relating to its Upper Kobuk Mineral Projects (the “UKMP”, as defined below); sufficiency of the Ambler Metals’ cash to fund the UKMP; statements regarding timing and planned undertakings of the 2026 field program; the anticipated timing of permitting at the UKMP, including predicted outcomes and benefits of the FAST-41 program; timing of the transaction with the U.S. Department of War; market prices for precious and base metals; statements regarding the Ambler Access Project (also known as the Ambler Mining District Industrial Access Project, “AMDIAP”); or other statements that are not statements of fact. These statements relate to analyses and other information that are based on forecasts of future results, estimates of amounts not yet determinable and assumptions of management. Statements concerning mineral resource estimates may also be deemed to constitute “forward-looking statements” to the extent that they involve estimates of the mineralization that will be encountered if the property is developed.

​

Any statements that express or involve discussions with respect to predictions, expectations, beliefs, plans, projections, objectives, assumptions or future events or performance (often, but not always, identified by words or phrases such as “expects”, “is expected”, “anticipates”, “believes”, “plans”, “projects”, “estimates”, “assumes”, “intends”, “strategy”, “goals”, “objectives”, “potential”, “possible” or variations thereof or stating that certain actions, events, conditions or results “may”, “could”, “would”, “should”, “might” or “will” be taken, occur or be achieved, or the negative of any of these terms and similar expressions) are not statements of historical fact and may be forward-looking statements.

Forward-looking statements are based on the beliefs, expectations and opinions of management on the date the statements are made, as well as on a number of material assumptions, which could prove to be significantly incorrect, including about:

| ● | our ability to achieve production at the UKMP;

| ● | the accuracy of our mineral resource and reserve estimates;

| ● | the results, costs and timing of future exploration drilling and engineering;

| ● | timing and receipt of approvals, consents and permits under applicable legislation;

| ● | the adequacy of our financial resources;

​

Although we have attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual actions, events or results to differ materially from those described in forward-looking statements, there may be other factors that cause actions, events or results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. We believe that the assumptions inherent in the forward-looking statements are reasonable as of the date of this MD&A. However, forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and, accordingly, undue reliance should not be put on such statements due to the inherent uncertainty therein.

Forward-looking statements are subject to a variety of known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual events or results to differ from those reflected in the forward-looking statements, including, without limitation:

| ● | risks related to inability to define proven and probable reserves;

This list is not exhaustive of the factors that may affect any of the Company’s forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are statements about the future and are inherently uncertain, and actual achievements of the Company or other future events or conditions may differ materially from those reflected in the forward-looking statements due to a variety of risks, uncertainties and other factors, including, without limitation, those referred to in Trilogy’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Canadian securities regulatory authorities and the SEC on February 17, 2026, and other information released by Trilogy and filed with the appropriate regulatory agencies.

The Company’s forward-looking statements are based on the beliefs, expectations and opinions of management on the date the statements are made, and the Company does not assume any obligation to update forward-looking statements if circumstances or management’s beliefs, expectations or opinions should change, except as required by law.

Description of business

We are a base metals exploration company focused on the exploration and development of mineral properties, through our equity investee, in the Ambler mining district located in Alaska, U.S.A. We conduct our operations through a wholly owned subsidiary, NovaCopper US Inc., which is doing business as Trilogy Metals US (“Trilogy Metals US”). The UKMP were contributed into a 50/50 joint venture named Ambler Metals LLC (“Ambler Metals”) between Trilogy and South32 Limited (“South32”) on February 11, 2020. The projects contributed to Ambler Metals consist of: i) the Ambler lands which host the Arctic copper-zinc-lead-gold-silver project (the “Arctic Project”); and ii) the Bornite lands being explored under a collaborative long-term agreement with NANA Regional Corporation, Inc., a regional Alaska Native Corporation, which hosts the Bornite carbonate-hosted copper project (the “Bornite Project”) and related assets. The Company may also conduct early-stage exploration through a wholly owned subsidiary, 995 Exploration Inc.

Corporate and project activities

Trilogy Annual General Meeting

The Annual General Meeting of shareholders was held on May 13, 2026. All directors nominated by the Company were elected by shareholders of the Company, with each director receiving greater than 85% of votes cast.

Trilogy Financial Results Compared to Budget

The Company has a 2026 fiscal budget of $5.0 million. For the three-month period ended May 31, 2026, the Company recorded a net loss of $6.3 million, compared with a budgeted loss of $3.5 million. The $2.8 million variance was primarily driven by a $2.3 million mark-to-market adjustment related to the derivative liability associated with our obligation to issue shares and warrants to the United States Department of War and the remainder due to stock-based compensation expense associated with the current fiscal year’s annual equity grant. These two non-cash expenses were not included in the budget.

​

Table of contents

For the six-month period ended May 31, 2026, the Company recorded a net loss of $13.4 million, compared with a budgeted loss of $8.4 million. The $5.0 million variance was primarily driven by non-cash expenses of $3.8 million mark-to-market adjustment related to the derivative liability associated with our obligation to issue shares and warrants to the United States Department of War, stock-based compensation expense related to the current fiscal year’s annual equity grant that were not in the budget, partially offset by lower than planned expenditures from Ambler Metals.

Extension of Binding Letter of Intent with the United States Department of War

On May 30, 2026, the Company, South32, Ambler Metals and the United States Department of War agreed to a second amendment to the binding letter of intent (“LOI”) dated October 6, 2025. The second amendment extends the deadline for the completion of the transaction from May 31, 2026 to July 31, 2026.

Project Activities

On April 21, 2026, the Company announced that Ambler Metals had commenced the permitting process for the Arctic Project, part of the Upper Kobuk Mineral Projects (“UKMP”) and on May 15, 2026, the Company announced that the Arctic Project was added to the U.S. FAST-41 permitting program. This program is intended to improve coordination and transparency in the federal permitting process as the project moves into environmental review.

​

In a press release dated June 9, 2026, the Company announced the start of the 2026 summer field program at the Upper Kobuk Mineral Projects, with crews mobilizing to site and drilling activities expected to commence in mid-June. The program includes drilling and technical work to support mine planning, permitting, and future development decisions at the Arctic Project, as well as site readiness activities at Bornite and regional exploration target assessments.

​

For the three-month period ended May 31, 2026, we reported a net loss of $6.3 million compared to a net loss of $2.2 million for the three-month period ended May 31, 2025. The increase in net loss was primarily driven by a mark-to-market fair value adjustment for the derivative liability related to our obligation to issue shares and warrants to the U.S. Department of War, as well as an increase in our share of loss from Ambler Metals. The increase in our share of loss from Ambler Metals was primarily driven by higher mineral property expenditures.

Table of contents

For the six-month period ended May 31, 2026, we reported a net loss of $13.4 million, compared to a net loss of $5.8 million for the same period in 2025. The increase in net loss was primarily driven by two non-cash items: i) the mark-to-market fair value adjustment for the derivative liability related to our obligation to issue shares and warrants to the U.S. Department of War; and ii) stock-based compensation expense related to our annual grant with higher Black-Scholes values in the current year compared to the prior year. The net loss was also impacted by an increase in activity at Ambler Metals which resulted in a larger amount for our share of loss on equity investment and an increase in personnel costs due to the addition of senior staff.

Liquidity and capital resources

During the six-month period ended May 31, 2026, we used $3.8 million in operating activities, used $10.5 million in investing activities, and raised $1.4 million in financing activities. Operating expenditures were driven primarily by corporate salaries, professional fees and annual regulatory filing fees with the U.S. and Canadian securities commissions. In addition, the Company contributed $10.5 million for our share of funding to Ambler Metals. These cash outflows were offset by $1.4 million in proceeds from financing activities, primarily from the Company’s at-the-market equity program through which the Company may offer and issue up to $200 million of common shares of the Company from time to time pursuant to an equity distribution agreement dated November 7, 2025, and from the exercise of stock options.

As at May 31, 2026, we had cash and cash equivalents of $38.8 million and adjusted working capital of $38.3 million, which are current assets less current liabilities excluding the derivative liability which will be settled by way of the issuance of shares and warrants. There is sufficient cash on hand for the next twelve months from the end of our most recent fiscal quarter, including funding the Company’s remaining fiscal 2026 corporate budget of $5.0 million. Our share of Ambler Metals’ fiscal 2026 budget is $17.5 million, of which $10.5 million had been funded as at May 31, 2026. Subsequent to May 31, 2026, the Company funded an additional $6.5 million to Ambler Metals, bringing total funding to $17.0 million as of the date of this MD&A.

​

Future cash requirements may vary materially from current expectations. Beyond the next twelve months, the Company may need to raise additional funds in the future to support its operations and administration expenses. Future sources of liquidity are likely in the form of an equity financing but may include debt financing, convertible debt, exercise of options, or other means, including, but not limited to, utilizing the Nov ATM Program.

Off-balance sheet arrangements

We have no material off-balance sheet arrangements.

Outstanding share data

As at July 7, 2026, we had 172,745,639 common shares issued and outstanding. As at July 7, 2026, we had 9,835,250 stock options outstanding with a weighted-average exercise price of CDN$2.01, 3,581,653 deferred share units and 851,670 restricted share units outstanding. Upon the exercise of all convertible securities, the Company would be required to issue an aggregate of 14,268,573 common shares.

New accounting pronouncements

Issued and Not Effective

In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-09 “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures” (“ASU 2023-09”). ASU 2023-09 enhances the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures through changes to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. The standard is effective beginning with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended November 30,

2026, and subsequent interim periods, with early adoption permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of ASU 2023-09 on its disclosure in the annual consolidated financial statements.

In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11 “Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow Scope Improvements” (“ASU 2025-11”), to improve the guidance for interim reporting and clarify when that guidance is applicable. The ASU 2025-11 provides a comprehensive list of required disclosures and also requires entities to disclose events since the last annual reporting period that have a material impact on the entity. ASU 2025-11 is effective for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. For the Company, the guidance becomes effective in the first interim reporting period of the fiscal period of the fiscal year ended November 30, 2029. Early adoption is permitted. Management is currently evaluating ASU 2025-11 to determine its impact on the Company’s disclosures.

Critical accounting estimates

The most critical accounting estimates upon which our financial status depends are those requiring estimates of the recoverability of our equity method investment in Ambler Metals LLC, fair value measurement of the derivative liability related to our obligation to issue shares and warrants to the U.S. Department of War and valuation of stock‐based compensation.

​

Impairment of Investment in Ambler Metals LLC

Management assesses the possibility of impairment in the carrying value of its equity method investment in Ambler Metals whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the investment may not be recoverable. Ambler Metals is a non-publicly traded equity investment owning exploration and development projects. Significant judgments are made in assessing the possibility of impairment. The Company determines whether a potential triggering event or other-than-temporary impairment has occurred by reviewing the recoverability of the underlying assets of Ambler Metals and considering whether there have been changes to the development plans or project strategy. If the Company concludes that sufficient evidence of a potential other-than-temporary impairment exists, an assessment of fair value is performed. If the underlying assets are not recoverable, the Company records an impairment charge equal to the difference between the investment carrying amount and its fair value.

​

Fair Value Measurement of Derivative Liability

The Company measures the proposed strategic investment by the Department of War under the binding letter of intent as a derivative liability at fair value on a recurring basis. The valuation of this liability requires the use of significant unobservable inputs and therefore represents a level 3 fair value measurement. The valuation relies on management judgement and assumptions on the completion of the Ambler Access Project which is subject to regulatory, political and permitting processes that are not within the Company’s control. As a result, estimating the probability of project completion requires significant judgement and incorporates inherently uncertain assumptions.

Stock-based compensation

Compensation expense for options granted to employees, directors and certain service providers is determined based on estimated fair values of the options at the time of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, which takes into account, as of the grant date, the fair market value of the shares, expected volatility, expected life, expected forfeiture rate, expected dividend yield and the risk-free interest rate over the expected life of the option. The use of the Black-Scholes option pricing model requires input estimation of the expected life of the option, volatility, and forfeiture rate which can have a significant impact on the valuation model, and resulting expense recorded.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Not applicable.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted by the Company under U.S. and Canadian securities legislation is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in those rules, including providing reasonable assurance that material information is gathered and reported to senior management, including the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), as appropriate, to permit timely decisions regarding public disclosure. Management, including the CEO and CFO, has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and the rules of Canadian Securities Administration, as of May 31, 2026. Based on this evaluation, the CEO and CFO have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Internal control over financial reporting

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act and National Instrument 52-109 - Certification of Disclosure in Issuer’s Annual and Interim Filings. Any system of internal control over financial reporting, no matter how well designed, has inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.

Changes in internal control over financial reporting

There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended May 31, 2026 which have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting. We continue to evaluate our internal control over financial reporting on an ongoing basis to identify improvements.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

From time to time, we are a party to routine litigation and proceedings that are considered part of the ordinary course of our business. We are not aware of any material current, pending, or threatened litigation. There are no material proceedings pursuant to which any of our directors, officers or affiliates or any owner of record or beneficial owner of more than 5% of our securities or any associate of any such director, officer or security holder is a party adverse to us or has a material interest adverse to us.

While we are not a party to the legal proceedings relating to the Ambler Access Project, for more information regarding legal proceedings related to the Ambler Access Project please see the section titled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis - Ambler Mining District Industrial Access Project (“AMDIAP” or “Ambler Access Project”)” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Trilogy and its future business, operations and financial condition are subject to various risks and uncertainties due to the nature of our business and the present stage of exploration of our mineral properties. Certain of these risks and uncertainties are under the heading “Risk Factors” under Trilogy’s Annual Report on Form 10-K which is available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca and EDGAR at www.sec.gov and on our website at www.trilogymetals.com.

​

With the exception of the addition of the below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors set forth in Trilogy’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.

​

Increases in energy prices and inflationary pressures could materially increase our capital and operating costs and adversely affect the economic viability of our projects.

​

Global energy markets have experienced significant volatility, including increases in oil and fuel prices associated with geopolitical developments involving Iran and disruptions to shipping through the Strait of Hormuz. Prolonged disruptions in global energy supply or transportation routes may lead to sustained increases in oil and other energy prices.

​

Energy costs are a significant component of the cost of developing and operating mining projects. Sustained increases in the price of oil, fuel, power and other energy inputs may increase the cost of construction, transportation, equipment operation and the production and delivery of consumables used in mining operations. Higher energy prices may also contribute to broader inflationary pressures affecting the costs of labor, materials, equipment, reagents, contractors and other services required for the development and operation of our projects.

​

Estimated capital costs, operating costs, production levels and economic returns for our projects are based on assumptions regarding, among other things, input costs, energy prices, supply chains and inflation. If energy prices remain elevated or inflation persists, actual costs may be significantly higher than our current estimates. Higher costs or increased uncertainty regarding future costs could adversely affect project development decisions, reduce projected economic returns, require additional financing or result in delays in development or construction. Any of these factors could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and the economic viability of our projects.
