Consolidated statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, consolidated statements of financial position and consolidated statements of cash flows are included in the appendices at the end of this announcement.

SUMMARY

· In September the Company announced a Blanket Mine ("Blanket") employee fatality following an accident related to secondary blasting. A comprehensive review of safety procedures and training is underway.

· Gold production of 19,106 ounces ("oz"), and gold sales of 20,355 oz from Blanket, with 2,861 oz of gold bullion on hand at the quarter-end, which was sold at the start of the fourth quarter. A further 437 oz of gold were produced and sold from the Bilboes oxide mine in the Quarter.

· Revenue up 52% to US$71.4 million compared to the third quarter of 2024 ("Q3 2024" or "the comparative quarter") driven by higher gold prices and increased sales.

· Gross Profit increased to US$36.9 million, compared to US$19.3 million in Q3 2024.

· EBITDA of US$33.5 million (Q3 2024: US$12.8 million, a 162% increase).

· Profit after tax of US$18.7 million (Q3 2024: US$3.3 million, a 467% increase).

· Consolidated On-mine cost of US$1,228/oz sold, and all-in sustaining cost ("AISC") of US$1,937/oz sold, based on 20,792 ounces sold.

· Free cash flow increased to US$5.9 million, compared to a negative US$2.4 million in Q3 2024.

· Total liquidity of US$44.3 million, supporting ongoing capital projects.

· Bilboes feasibility study: expected to be released imminently.

· Appointment of new non-executive director: On November 5, 2025, Caledonia announced that Mr. July Ndlovu had joined the Company's board of directors ("the Board") as an independent non-executive director.

· Quarterly dividend: Caledonia announced today that the Board has approved a dividend of 14 cents per share which will be paid on December 5, 2025.

MARK LEARMONTH, CEO, commented:

"We continue to deliver solid operational and financial results at Blanket, producing 19,106 ounces of gold during the Quarter and maintaining our focus on stable production and disciplined capital investment as we seek to modernise operations and improve mining efficiency at Blanket. The strong gold price environment, which increased 40% to average $3,434 per ounce, combined with higher production has resulted in a 52% increase in quarterly revenue and a significant uplift in free cash flow.

However, it is with deep regret that we reported a fatality during the period. The safety and wellbeing of our workforce remains our highest priority. We have initiated a comprehensive review of our safety procedures and training, and we are committed to ensuring that such a tragedy does not occur again.

We remain focused on delivering value for all stakeholders, making strategic investments across the business to strengthen our foundations for the future and to sustain long-term growth."

RESULTS SUMMARY

1Restated, previously reported in 200,000 man hours.

2The production summaries above only show Blanket's results. Bilboes oxide mine contributes marginally to the overall results; however due to materiality, its numbers have not been included in gold production above.

3 Please refer to the financial statements in the appendices at the end of this announcement. Caledonia is not publishing full financial statements or a management discussion and analysis for the Quarter, as explained in its announcement on August 11, 2025. See End Notes below.

2025 Production, cost and capital expenditure guidance

· Gold production guidance range for 2025 maintained at 75,500 to 79,500 oz[1]

· 2025 cost guidance for Blanket:

o On-mine cost guidance range of US$1,150 to US$1,250/oz sold

o AISC guidance range of US$1,850 to US$1,950/oz sold

· Capex guidance for 2025 is US$41.0m, including:

o US$34.1m allocated to Blanket (US$29.3m sustaining and US$4.8m non-sustaining capex)

o Exploration spend US$5.8m, allocated to Bilboes and Motapa projects

o Group IT and other initiatives US$1.1m

The on-mine cost per ounce at Blanket in the Quarter was $1,203/oz, which is above the guidance range of $1,050 to $1,150/oz for 2025. Due to the higher cost per ounce incurred in the first 9 months of the year, it is expected that the on-mine cost per ounce at Blanket will be in the range of $1,150 to $1,250/oz for the 12 months of 2025.

AISC guidance of $1,690 to $1,790/oz has been revised to $1,850 to $1,950/oz, due to the higher on-mine cost guidance, higher administration costs and the impact of higher royalties due to higher gold price.

The AISC guidance also includes high sustaining capital expenditure for the year. The capital expenditure investments aim to modernise operations and improve mining efficiency at Blanket. While there will be short-term cost pressures, the long-term goal is to reduce costs, improve profitability and operational resilience and extend Blanket's mine life thereby ensuring the continued success of Blanket. Expenditure will be funded from cash generation and cash reserves with no anticipated impact on the regular quarterly dividend.

WEBCAST

The Company will host a remote presentation for analysts and investors on its operating and financial results for the Quarter on Monday November 10, 2025 at 2:00pm London time, followed by an opportunity to ask questions.

SALES

Revenue in the Quarter was 52.4% higher than the comparative quarter due to a 40% increase in the average realised price of gold sold and a 8.7% increase in ounces sold. Sales in the Quarter exclude 2,861 oz (Q3 2024: 1,320 oz) of gold that were held as work-in-progress and sold early in October 2025, and include 4,115 oz of gold sold that were held as work-in-progress as at June 30, 2025. Blanket had accumulated an ore stockpile of 34,968 tonnes as at September 30, 2025. The royalty rate payable to the Zimbabwe Government was unchanged at 5%.

COSTS

On-mine costs comprise electricity, labour, consumables, administrative, and other costs directly related to production e.g. insurance, Blanket's software licensing, ESG spending and security. On-mine production cost per ounce sold increased by 16.3% compared to the comparative quarter driven by higher labour and consumable costs incurred due to additional tonnes processed during the Quarter to compensate for lower grade achieved.

AISC per ounce sold for the Quarter was 29.0% higher than the comparative quarter predominantly due to higher on-mine costs, increased administrative costs, higher royalties, and some sustaining capital expenditure. Sustaining capital expenditure includes underground capital development, IT software installation predominantly to enhance the on-mine resource management planning abilities, exploration at Blanket, and electrical and surface engineering. More of Blanket's capital expenditure is allocated to sustaining capital expenditure rather than to expansion (non-sustaining) capital investment, which is included in the calculation of the all-in cost.

BLANKET MINE

(Q3 2025 vs Q3 2024)

Production and sales

Gold production at Blanket for the Quarter was 19,106 oz, higher than the 18,992 oz produced in Q3 2024. The increase was due to higher tonnes milled of 212,504 tonnes, marginally offset by a lower grade. Gold production excludes approximately 2,788 oz of gold contained in the ore stockpile at the end of the Quarter.

Blanket sold 20,355 oz in the Quarter. This represents a 6.4% increase from the comparative quarter, when 19,136 oz were sold. The ounces sold in the Quarter include a net movement of 1,254 oz of gold work in progress.

Production guidance range for 2025 remains 75,500 to 79,500 oz [1].

Underground mining

Tonnes broken and hoisted in the Quarter increased to 229.5 thousand tonnes and 208.7 thousand tonnes, respectively, compared to 228.0 thousand tonnes and 202.3 thousand tonnes in the comparative quarter after the introduction of revised management structures in late 2024 which increased the direct supervision of underground mining, tramming and hoisting activities. Tramming activities also improved due to reduced downtime of tramming equipment and the better synchronization of tramming crews.

The improved rate of mining and hoisting in the Quarter exceeded milling capacity, which meant that at the end of the Quarter 34,968 tonnes of ore were stockpiled on surface (Dec 31, 2024: 8,487 tonnes) representing approximately 15 days of target mill throughput. Management intends to maximise mine production to further build the ore stockpile to create a buffer to absorb unforeseen interruptions to mining activities and to allow milling to continue uninterrupted during scheduled engineering work on winders and shafts.

Processing

Tonnes milled in the Quarter increased to 212.5 thousand tonnes from 206 thousand tonnes in the comparative quarter. Tonnes milled in the Quarter equated to an average throughput of 86.6 tonnes per hour ("tph"), compared to the anticipated rate of 85 tph.

The grade for the Quarter was lower than target due to higher waste dilution because of narrower orebody widths on the extremities of some orebodies, the completion of mining in high grade free gold orebodies and the moving of mining crews to new areas. This necessitated the plant to use its sprint capacity to achieve target gold production for the Quarter.

EXPLORATION PROJECTS

Caledonia's exploration activities are focused on Blanket and the Motapa project.

Blanket

Underground Exploration

Deep exploration drilling continues at Blanket primarily targeting the down dip continuations of the Eroica, Blanket and AR South mineralised zones below the lowest production level of the mine, 34 level. In addition to these zones, drilling has commenced on the down-dip continuation of the Lima mineralised zone. The Lima zone comprises up to 6 individual mineralised zones with drilling targeting these zones between 26 and 34 level of Blanket.

Results of the drilling program continue to be highly encouraging for the continuation of the mineralised zones beyond 34 level with intersected grades and widths generally higher than included in the life of mine plan. Further results from the deep drilling at Blanket are anticipated to be published during the fourth quarter of 2025. The drilling may potentially upgrade confidence in the mineral resource classification from inferred to indicated mineral resources.

Surface Exploration

During the Quarter, Blanket embarked on a surface trenching program within the mining lease area of the mine, targeting the identification of potential near surface mining opportunities.

13 trenches to a depth of 1.50 metres and totalling 2,294.7 meters were excavated at an area termed "K-Pits". Trenches were sampled every 1.0 meter along the full length of the trenches. All sample assays were conducted at the Blanket laboratory.

Results from the trenching have identified anomalous gold values at surface in an area of approximately 53,000 square metres, located approximately 270 metres to the east of the Sheet orebody of the underground mine.

As a result of this, Blanket commenced a 5,000-metre reverse circulation drilling program at the end of the Quarter with the intention to confirm the continuation of the anomalous zone below surface and to determine the oxidation level of mineralisation down to a depth of 40 metres below surface.

Results from the trenching and drilling program are expected to be published during the first quarter of 2026.

Motapa

After the encouraging results from the 2024 exploration programme, as announced on November 11, 2024, in terms of strike width, length and grade, a further US$2.8 million has been allocated to exploration activities at Motapa for the 2025 year. With Motapa's location adjacent to Bilboes, significant synergies could be obtained should a viable resource body be identified through the planned exploration programme.

The 2025 exploration programme for Motapa encompasses the following:

· 25,580 metres of reverse circulation drilling; and

· 1,780 metres of diamond drilling.

To the end of the Quarter, the following has been completed:

· 17,787 metres of reverse circulation drilling; and

· 1,763.4 metres of diamond drilling.

Results continue to be within expectations. Upon completion of the 2025 drilling campaign, expected to be late in the fourth quarter of 2025, drilling results are expected to be released pending all assays being received from the independent laboratories in country.

It is expected that a maiden resource will be declared for a portion of the Motapa property during the first half of 2026.

Bilboes

Caledonia has been progressing work on a feasibility study which is due to be released imminently. A summary of the feasibility study is expected to be published very shortly and the full study is expected to be published before the end of November.

CAPITAL EXPENDITURE

The main capital projects are ongoing mine development to provide access to new mining areas and the completion of the new tailings storage facility ("TSF").

On-mine capital development includes the infrastructure which will allow for three new production levels (26, 30 and 34 levels); a fourth level (38 level) is to be added in due course via a twin decline that commenced in February 2024. 5,624 meters of development were achieved in the Quarter against a plan of 5,314 meters.

The TSF is being built on a modular basis to spread the cost over a longer period, and to ensure that the first phase could receive material before the old TSF reached its full capacity. Work on the TSF commenced in March 2023, the first phase of the project was completed at the end of February 2024 and deposition on the new TSF commenced on October 30, 2024. All of Blanket's tailings have been deposited on the new facility from the beginning of 2025. Work on the TSF was completed on July 31, 2025. A second return water dam is currently under construction to support the TSF.
