ABOUT NORTH SHORE
The nuclear power industry is in growth mode as more nuclear power will be required to meet the world's ambitious CO2 emission-reduction goals and the needs of new power-intensive technologies like AI. In this environment, new discoveries of economic uranium deposits will be very valuable, especially in established uranium-producing jurisdictions like Saskatchewan and New Mexico (see news release dated June 24, 2025). North Shore is well-positioned to become a major force in exploration for economic uranium deposits. The Company is working to achieve this goal by exploring its Falcon and West Bear properties at the eastern margin of the Athabasca Basin in Saskatchewan, expanding its exploration efforts to include the Grants Uranium District in New Mexico and by evaluating other quality opportunities in the United States and Canada to complement its portfolio of uranium properties. North Shore summarized exploration efforts at its Falcon property in a May 27, 2025, news release.

TSX futures rise on US-Japan trade deal
(Reuters) -Futures tied to Canada's benchmark index rose on Wednesday, after U.S. President Donald Trump revived hopes for deals with its trading partners following an agreement with Japan. Futures on the S&P/TSX index were up 0.5% at 1,637.1 points by 06:20 a.m. ET (1020 GMT). Trump struck a trade deal with Japan, lowering tariffs on auto imports and sparing Tokyo from punishing new levies on other goods, in exchange for a $550 billion package of U.S.-bound investment and loans. Meanwhile, prospects of an EU-U.S. trade agreement improved after Trump said on Tuesday that EU representatives would come for trade negotiations on Wednesday. The news lifted market sentiment and sparked hopes of more U.S. agreements before the August 1 tariff deadline. In commodities, gold prices fell and oil prices were steady. Copper prices touched their highest in over two weeks. In corporate news, Zara founder Amancio Ortega's investment vehicle Pontegadea Inversiones has agreed to acquire a 49% stake in PD Ports from Brookfield Asset Management.

BankUnited, Inc. Reports Second Quarter 2025 Results
BUSINESS WIRE)--BankUnited, Inc. (the 'Company') (NYSE: BKU) today announced financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2025. "This was an outstanding quarter - we continued to deliver on key priorities with strong NIDDA growth and continued margin expansion," said Rajinder Singh, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. For the quarter ended June 30, 2025, the Company reported net income of $68.8 million, or $0.91 per diluted share, an 18% increase over $58.5 million, or $0.78 per diluted share for the immediately preceding quarter ended March 31, 2025. For the quarter ended June 30, 2024, net income was $53.7 million, or $0.72 per diluted share. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, net income was $127.2 million, or $1.68 per diluted share compared to $101.7 million, or $1.36 per diluted share for the six months ended June 30, 2024, an increase of 25%. Quarterly Highlights As expected, the net interest margin, calculated on a tax-equivalent basis, expanded by 0.12%, to 2.93% for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 from 2.81% for the immediately preceding quarter. Net interest income grew by $13.0 million, or 5.6% compared to the prior quarter. The Company's funding profile continued to improve this quarter. Non-interest bearing demand deposits ("NIDDA") grew by $1.0 billion, or 13%, to 32% of total deposits, up from 29% at March 31, 2025. NIDDA was also up $1.0 billion compared to June 30, 2024, one year ago. Average NIDDA grew $581 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025. Non-brokered deposits grew by $1.2 billion, or 5.1%, for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 while total deposits grew by $588 million. The average cost of total deposits declined by 0.11% to 2.47% for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 from 2.58% for the immediately preceding quarter ended March 31, 2025. The spot APY of total deposits declined by 0.15% to 2.37% at June 30, 2025 from 2.52% at March 31, 2025. The spot APY of total deposits was 3.09% at June 30, 2024, one year ago. Wholesale funding, including FHLB advances and brokered deposits, declined by $749 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025. For the quarter ended June 30, 2025, CRE loans grew by $267 million, largely in line with our expectations. C&I loans declined by $199 million; a continued high level of unscheduled payoffs and some strategic exits impacted C&I growth. Consistent with our balance sheet strategy, the residential, franchise, equipment and municipal finance portfolios declined by a combined $171 million. Total loans declined by $56 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025. The loan to deposit ratio declined to 83.6% at June 30, 2025, from 85.5% at March 31, 2025. With respect to credit, total criticized and classified loans declined by $156 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025. We experienced net migration of $117 million of loans to non-accrual for the quarter, the majority of which, not unexpectedly, was attributable to office exposure. The NPA ratio at June 30, 2025 was 1.08%, including 0.10% related to the guaranteed portion of non-accrual SBA loans, compared to 0.76%, including 0.09% related to the guaranteed portion of non-accrual SBA loans, at March 31, 2025. The annualized net charge-off ratio for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was 0.27%; the net charge-off ratio for the trailing twelve months was 0.23%. The ratio of the ACL to total loans was 0.93% at June 30, 2025, compared to 0.92% at the prior quarter-end. The ratio of the ACL to non-performing loans was 59.18%. The ACL to loans ratio for commercial portfolio sub-segments including C&I, CRE, franchise finance and equipment finance was 1.36% at June 30, 2025 and the ACL to loans ratio for CRE office loans was 1.92%. The provision for credit losses was $15.7 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 compared to $15.1 million for the preceding quarter. At June 30, 2025, the weighted average LTV of the CRE portfolio was 54.2%, the weighted average DSCR was 1.76, 51% of the portfolio was collateralized by properties located in Florida and 24% was collateralized by properties located in the New York tri-state area. For the office sub-segment, the weighted average LTV was 63.3%, the weighted average DSCR was 1.52, 59% was collateralized by properties in Florida, substantially all of which was suburban, and 22% was collateralized by properties located in the New York tri-state area. Our capital position is robust. At June 30, 2025, CET1 was 12.2% at a consolidated level. Pro-forma CET1 including accumulated other comprehensive income was 11.3% at June 30, 2025. The ratio of tangible common equity to tangible assets increased to 8.1% at June 30, 2025. Book value and tangible book value per common share continued to accrete, to $39.26 and $38.23, respectively, at June 30, 2025 compared to $38.51 and $37.48, respectively, at March 31, 2025 and $36.11 and $35.07, respectively, at June 30, 2024. This represents a 9% year-over-year increase in tangible book value per share. As previously announced, we are excited about the launch of new wholesale banking offices in Morristown, NJ and Charlotte, NC. On July 22, 2025, the Company's Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $100 million in shares of its outstanding common stock. Any repurchases will be made in accordance with applicable securities laws from time to time in open market or private transactions. The extent to which the Company repurchases shares, and the timing of such repurchases, will depend upon a variety of factors, including market conditions, the Company's capital position and amount of retained earnings, regulatory requirements and other considerations. No time limit was set for the completion of the share repurchase program, and the program may be suspended or discontinued at any time. On July 22, 2025, the Company's Board of Directors authorized the redemption of all of its outstanding 4.875% senior notes due November 2025. Loans Loan portfolio composition at the dates indicated follows (dollars in thousands): For the quarter ended June 30, 2025, the core C&I and CRE portfolio segments grew by a net $68 million. The CRE portfolio grew by $267 million while the C&I portfolio declined by $199 million. A continued high level of unscheduled payoffs and strategic exits contributed to this decline. MWL grew by $46 million. Consistent with our balance sheet strategy, residential loans declined by $160 million. Our commercial real estate exposure totaled 27% of loans and 185% of the Bank's total risk based capital at June 30, 2025. By comparison, based on call report data as of March 31, 2025 for banks with between $10 billion and $100 billion in assets, the median level of CRE to total loans was 35% and the median level of CRE to total risk based capital was 217%. Asset Quality and the ACL The following table presents information about the ACL at the dates indicated as well as net charge-off rates for the periods ended June 30, 2025, March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 (dollars in thousands): _______________________________ (1) Annualized for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and the six months ended June 30, 2025; ratio for December 31, 2024 represents annual net charge-off rate. (2) For purposes of this ratio, commercial loans includes the core C&I and CRE sub-segments as presented in the table above as well as franchise and equipment finance. Due to their unique risk profiles, MWL and municipal finance are excluded from this ratio. Expand The ACL at June 30, 2025 represents management's estimate of lifetime expected credit losses, or the amount of amortized cost not expected to be collected, given an assessment of historical data, current conditions, and a reasonable and supportable economic forecast as of the balance sheet date. For the quarter ended June 30, 2025, the provision for credit losses, including portions related to both funded and unfunded loan commitments, was $15.7 million, compared to $15.1 million for the immediately preceding quarter ended March 31, 2025 and $19.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2024. Factors impacting the provision for credit losses and increase in the ACL for the quarter included increases in specific reserves and deterioration in the economic forecast, substantially offset by the impact of upgrades and payoffs of criticized and classified commercial loans, some reduction in certain qualitative factors and net charge-offs. The quarter-over-quarter decline in the ratio of the ACL to non-performing loans is related to non-performing loans that have no or relatively low related ACL due to the adequacy of estimated collateral value to cover the remaining outstanding balance, which is in some cases net of partial charge-offs recognized. The following table summarizes the activity in the ACL for the periods indicated (in thousands): As detailed in the following table, criticized and classified commercial loans declined during the quarter ended June 30, 2025 (in thousands): Total criticized and classified loans declined by $156 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, although total non-accrual loans increased by $117 million. Of the net increase, $86 million was office related exposure. At June 30, 2025, 75% of non-accrual loans were current. Net Interest Income Net interest income for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 was $246.1 million, compared to $233.1 million for the immediately preceding quarter ended March 31, 2025, a 5.6% increase. Net interest income increased by 8.9% compared to $226.0 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2024. Interest income increased by $10.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 while interest expense decreased by $2.9 million. The quarter-over-quarter increase in interest income was primarily related to higher yields on loans. The decline in interest expense related to both a lower average cost of funds and lower average balance of interest bearing liabilities. The Company's net interest margin, calculated on a tax-equivalent basis, increased by 0.12% to 2.93% for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, from 2.81% for the immediately preceding quarter ended March 31, 2025. Factors impacting the net interest margin for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 were: The net interest margin was positively impacted by the increase in average NIDDA as a percentage of both total deposits and total funding. Average NIDDA grew by $581 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, while average interest bearing deposits declined by $290 million. The average rate paid on interest bearing deposits declined to 3.48% for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, from 3.54% for the quarter ended March 31, 2025. This decline reflected the maturity of higher-rate term deposits, a reduction in higher priced brokered deposits and continued pricing discipline. The tax-equivalent yield on loans increased to 5.55% for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, from 5.48% for the quarter ended March 31, 2025. This increase reflects the origination of new loans at higher rates, paydowns and maturities of lower rate loans and balance sheet repositioning. The average rate paid on FHLB advances increased to 3.79% for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 from 3.69% for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, primarily due to the expiration of cash flow hedges, partially offset by maturities of higher rate advances.

36.0 g/t Gold Over 10.0 Meters - Froome Mine Life Extended With Discovery of New High-Grade Mineralization
TORONTO, July 23, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — McEwen Inc. (NYSE: MUX) (TSX: MUX) ('McEwen', 'MUX' or the 'Company') is pleased to announce the discovery of high-grade mineralization approximately 200 meters West of the Froome Mine, which is the current source of production at the Fox Complex. This discovery will extend our mining at Froome. Highlights from Drilling at Froome West: Intercepts along the Froome West high-grade plunge (refer to Figures 2 and 3): Extending mineralization further West (refer to Figures 2 and 3): Unless specified as core widths (CW), all assay intervals in this press release are presented as true widths (TW). The mineralization we see at Froome West occurs as several sub-vertical, stacked mineralized lenses which can often lead to increased flexibility during mining. Within these lenses we are seeing a concentration of high grade in a roughly 15 to 25 meters wide, vertically oriented trend (or plunge). Gold mineralization remains open to the West and at depth, which encourages further exploration in both directions. Froome West mineralization is similar in style to that seen at the Black Fox deposit (approx. 900 meters to the East and shown in Figure 1), characterized by structurally controlled, stacked, sub-vertically dipping quartz-carbonate veins, with occurrences of visible gold (VG) and showing a steep high-grade plunge. Total historical production at the Black Fox and Froome mines is 1.1 million gold ounces. The exploration program at Froome West will continue drilling to test deeper (along the down-dip extension of the high-grade plunge), and laterally (westward along strike), to evaluate broader regional mineralization trends. Figure 1 below provides an aerial view showing the location of the Froome West mineralization in relation to the Froome Mine deposit currently being mined and the historic Black Fox Mine, including its open pit and underground workings. Future mining activities at Froome West will continue to use the existing infrastructure currently used for mining operations at the Froome Mine. Figure 1. Aerial View of the Locations of Froome West, Froome Mine and Historical Black Fox Mine Mining infrastructure development on four levels is planned and already underway at Froome West, starting from the existing workings at the producing Froome Mine and extending 200 meters toward the West zones. This is shown in blue in Figures 2 and 3. The new infrastructure will allow for access and testing for extensions of the Froome West mineralization. Table 1 lists the new drilling results for Froome West that are presented in this press release. Table 1. Froome West Drill Results Highlights The long section view A-A' in Figure 2 below (location shown on Figure 1) shows the outline of the mineralized zones at Froome West and the locations of the drill hole intercepts listed in Table 1 above. The high-grade plunge is identified by the darker orange vertical lines, located to the Eastern side, close to the planned early infrastructure, and shows the potential expansion of the mineralized zone both to depth (down-dip) and to the West along strike. Figure 2. Long Section View A-A' Looking East Northeast, Showing the Newly Discovered Froome West Mineralization (Orange), Including the High-Grade Plunge (Bright Orange), 200 Meters from the Froome Mine Operations, Where We Are Currently Mining (Olive Green and Green) The cross-section view B-B' in Figure 3 below (location shown in Figure 1) shows the stacked lenses seen at Froome West. The section also shows the planned and current infrastructure (in blue), along with some of the notable drillhole intercepts received for this drilling campaign. Figure 3. Cross Section View B-B' Looking Northwest, Showing the Stacked Mineralized Zones West of Froome Mine and Notable Drill Hole Intercepts This discovery of high-grade mineralization will extend the mining at Froome and provide more optionality in our mine plan for the Fox Complex. As mentioned in previous announcements (see our June 5th press release and the Annual Meeting presentation from June 19th, 2025), our Stock Mine is part of the mine plan for the Fox Complex and is expected to come into commercial production in 2026. 'We are excited at the potential of what Froome West holds, in an area of our property that is relatively underexplored; our current mineralization model extends to a depth of 250 meters and remains open both at depth and to the West. The nearby Black Fox Mine historically produced nearly 1 million gold ounces, from mining that extended down to 800 meters below surface. With geology and mineralization styles comparable to those seen at Black Fox, which encountered mineralization as deep as 1,000 meters, the Froome West area has the potential to lead us to the discovery of a deposit of similar scale and significance,' said Chief Geologist Rob Glover. A table of drill results at Froome West up until July 16th, 2025 that includes hole locations and alignments is available on the Company's website and can be accessed by clicking here .
