Kobo Resources Inc. (" Kobo " or the " Company ") ( TSX.V: KRI ) is pleased to announce that, due to strong investor demand, it has upsized its previously announced non-brokered private placement of units (the " Offering ").

Edward Gosselin, CEO and Director of Kobo commented: " The successful completion of the Company's private placement and upsize represents an important milestone for Kobo, demonstrating the market's confidence in our team and in our 100%-owned Kossou Gold Project. Having the overwhelming support of existing and new shareholders, we can build on this foundation for aggressive growth at Kossou as we continue to develop our key assets and create value for all stakeholders . "Importantly, we are glad that Luso Global Mining, one of our key shareholders, is a participant in the financing and has elected to maintain its 9.9% interest. We are excited to build on our strategic partnership with Luso Global Mining as we expand our presence in Cote D'Ivoire through the Kossou Gold Project and explore future opportunities. "

The upsized Offering is for up to 13,899,902 units of the Company (the " Units ") at a price of $0.30 per Unit for gross proceeds of up to approximately $4,169,970.60, increased from the previously announced 10,000,000 Units for gross proceeds of up to $3.0 million.

The Units will be issued pursuant to exemptions from the prospectus requirements in accordance with National Instrument 45-106 – Prospectus Exemptions (or, in Québec, Regulation 45-106 respecting Prospectus Exemptions ) (" NI 45-106 ").

Each Unit will be comprised of one Common Share and one-half of one common share purchase warrant (each whole common share purchase warrant (" Warrant "). Each whole Warrant will entitle its holder to acquire one Common Share at a price of $0.55 per share for a period of 24 months from the closing of the first tranche of the Offering. The securities underlying the Units will be subject to a 4-month statutory hold period in accordance with applicable Canadian securities laws.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the Offering to pursue its 2025 exploration plans as initiated in H1-2025 and extend the known zones of mineralisation at its three main targets, the Road Cut Zone, Jagger Zone and Kadie Zone on the Kossou Gold Project, initiate preliminary metallurgical work and further develop its ongoing soil geochemical and trenching survey at Kossou as well as to enhance the geological exploration program on the Kotobi research permit and other regional exploration targets, and for general corporate and working capital purposes.

Further to the upsize, closing of the Offering is expected to occur on or about September 5, 2025 (the " Closing "), and is subject to certain closing conditions including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary approvals including the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.

The Units, Common Shares and Warrants have not been registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the " U.S. Securities Act "), or any U.S. state securities laws, and may not be offered or sold to, or for the account or benefit of, persons in the "United States" or "U.S. persons" (as such terms are defined in Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act) absent registration under the U.S. Securities Act and all applicable U.S. state securities laws or compliance with an exemption from such registration requirements.

Exploration has focused on multiple high-priority targets within a 9+ km strike length of highly prospective gold-in-soil geochemical anomalies, with drilling confirming extensive mineralisation at the Jagger, Road Cut, and Kadie Zones. The latest phase of drilling has further refined structural controls on gold mineralisation, setting the stage for the next phase of systematic exploration and resource development.

Beyond Kossou , the Company is advancing exploration at its Kotobi Permit and is actively expanding its land position in Côte d'Ivoire with prospective ground, aligning with its strategic vision for long-term growth in-country.
