Almonty Industries Inc. (" Almonty " or the " Company ") (NASDAQ: ALM) (TSX: AII,OTC:ALMTD) (ASX: AII) (OTCQX: ALMTF) (Frankfurt: ALI1), a leading global producer of tungsten concentrate, announces the results of its special meeting of shareholders (the " Meeting ") held today.
As disclosed in the Company's management information circular dated August 28, 2025 (the " Circular "), the purpose of the Meeting was for shareholders to approve the amendment of the currency in which an aggregate of 6,558,336 outstanding options (the " CDI Options ") exercisable for CHESS Depositary Interests representing common shares of the Company (" Common Shares ") and 1,481,480 outstanding warrants (the " Warrants ") exercisable for Common Shares are exercisable.
The CDI Options were originally exercisable at prices quoted in Australian dollars, and the Warrants were originally exercisable at prices quoted in United States dollars. At the Meeting, disinterested Shareholders were asked to approve the amendment of the CDI Options and Warrants to be exercisable in Canadian dollars. The rationale for the amendments is to eliminate certain accounting distortions that result from the CDI Options and Warrants being exercisable in currencies other than the Canadian dollar, which is the Company's functional currency.
The following is a summary of the votes cast at the Meeting on the amendment of the CDI Options (the " CDI Option Amendment ") and the Warrants (the " Warrant Amendment "):
|
| Votes For | % For | Votes Against | % Against |
| CDI Option Amendment | 62,171,146 | 99.31% | 430,346 | 0.69% |
| Warrant Amendment | 58,418,461 | 99.51% | 290,479 | 0.49% |
As of the date hereof, the holders of a total of 4,893,406 CDI Options, representing 74.61% of the CDI Options, have consented to the CDI Option Amendment. The holders of all 1,481,480 Warrants have consented to the Warrant Amendment.

About Almonty
Almonty (NASDAQ: ALM) (TSX: AII,OTC:ALMTD) (ASX: AII) (OTCQX: ALMTF) (Frankfurt: ALI1) is a leading supplier of conflict free tungsten – a strategic metal critical to the defense and advanced technology sectors. As geopolitical tensions heighten, tungsten has become essential for armor, munitions, and electronics manufacturing. Almonty's flagship Sangdong Mine in South Korea, historically one of the world's largest and highest-grade tungsten deposits, is expected to supply over 80% of global non-China tungsten production upon reaching full capacity, directly addressing critical supply vulnerabilities highlighted by recent U.S. defense procurement bans and export restrictions by China. With established operations in Portugal and additional projects in Spain, Almonty is strategically aligned to meet rapidly rising demand from Western allies committed to supply-chain security and defense readiness.
