FIRST MINING GOLD CORP.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Presented in Canadian dollars unless otherwise noted, tabular amounts are presented in thousands of

Canadian dollars except for number of shares and per share amounts)

1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS

First Mining Gold Corp. (the “Company” or “First Mining”) is a public company which is listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange (the “TSX”) under the symbol “FF”, on the “OTCQX” under the symbol “FFMGF”, and on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange under the symbol “FMG”. The Company’s head office and principal address is Suite 2070 – 1188 West Georgia Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, V6E 4A2.

First Mining was incorporated on April 4, 2005 and changed its name to First Mining Gold Corp. in January 2018.

First Mining is advancing a portfolio of gold projects in Canada, with the most advanced projects being the Springpole Gold Project in northwestern Ontario and the Duparquet Gold Project in the Abitibi region of Québec. In addition, the Company holds a 20% interest in PC Gold Inc., the legal entity which holds the Pickle Crow gold project which is being advanced by Bellavista Resources Limited (“Bellavista”) formerly owned by FireFly Metals Ltd. (“FireFly Metals”), and a 47.83% interest in Seva Mining Corp. (“Seva Mining”), the Company which is advancing the Cameron Gold Project.

The Company’s unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements (“financial statements”) have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates that the Company will be able to continue its operations for at least twelve months from March 31, 2026 and will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company has not generated revenue from operations to date and may require additional financing or outside participation to undertake further advanced exploration of its mineral properties.

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IFRS^® Accounting Standards”) applicable to the preparation of interim financial statements under International Accounting Standard 34 Interim Financial Reporting. These financial statements do not include all disclosures required for annual financial statements. Accordingly, they should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

The financial statements are presented in thousands of Canadian dollars, unless otherwise noted, and tabular amounts are presented in thousands of Canadian dollars. These consolidated annual financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. The functional currency of the Company and its subsidiaries is the Canadian dollar. In preparing the Company’s financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company used the consistent accounting policies, except as described below, methods of computation and accounting policy judgments and estimates as in the annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025. Additionally, the areas of estimation uncertainty remain unchanged from those disclosed in the annual consolidated financial statements.

The Company adopted the Amendments to the Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments (Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7) effective January 1, 2026. Following assessment, the optional exception for derecognition of financial liabilities settled via electronic payment systems (where criteria are met) has been incorporated into the Company's ongoing accounting policies, with no material impact on the condensed interim financial statements.

Certain new accounting standards and interpretations have been published that are either applicable in the current year or not mandatory for the current period. We have assessed these standards and determined they do not have a material impact on the Company in the current reporting period. In addition, the following standards have been issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and we are currently assessing the impact on our consolidated financial statements.

·

IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements with mandatory application of the standard in annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027.

a) Investment in associates

An associate is an entity over which the Company has significant influence. The Company has significant influence over an entity when it has the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the associate but does not have control or joint control.

The Company’s investment in the common shares of Seva Mining (Note 6) is accounted for as an investment in an associate using the equity method under IAS 28.

Under the equity method, the Company’s investment in the common shares of the associate is initially recognized at cost and subsequently increased or decreased to recognize the Company’s share of net income and losses of the associate, after any adjustments necessary to give effect to uniform accounting policies, any other movement in the associate’s reserves, and for impairment losses after the initial recognition date. The Company’s share of income and losses of the associate is recognized in net income during the period.

Dividends and repayment of capital received from an associate are accounted for as a reduction in the carrying amount of the Company’s investment.

At the end of each reporting period, the Company assesses whether there is any objective evidence that an investment in an associate is impaired. Objective evidence includes observable data indicating there is a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows of the investee’s operations. When there is objective evidence that an investment is impaired, the carrying amount of such investment is compared to its recoverable amount, being the higher of its fair value less costs of disposal and value-in-use. If the recoverable amount of an investment is less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount is reduced to its recoverable amount and an impairment loss, being the excess of carrying amount over the recoverable amount, is recognized in the period in which the relevant circumstances are identified.

b) Accounting policy judgments and estimation uncertainty

The Company’s management makes judgments in applying the Company’s accounting policies in the preparation of its unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements. In addition, the preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates that affect the carrying amounts of the Company’s assets and liabilities at the end of the reporting period, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates as the estimation process is inherently uncertain. Estimates are reviewed on an ongoing basis based on historical experience and other factors that are considered relevant under the circumstances. Revisions to estimates and the resulting impacts on the carrying amounts of the Company’s assets and liabilities are accounted for prospectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, management applied significant judgment and estimation uncertainty in accounting for the disposition of Cameron Gold Operations Ltd. (“Cameron Gold”) and the initial recognition of the Company’s retained interest in Seva Mining.

Loss of control on Cameron Gold Transaction

Management applied judgment in determining that the Company lost control of Cameron Gold on March 10, 2026 and therefore derecognized the subsidiary. In assessing whether control existed, management considered the Company’s ability to direct the relevant activities, and the rights and obligations arising from the transaction and related agreements. Following completion of the transaction, management concluded that the Company retained significant influence, but no control, over Seva Mining, based on its ownership interest, board representation and governance rights, and therefore accounted for the retained interest as an investment in associate using the equity method under IAS 28.

Fair value of Seva Mining share consideration

The Company applied judgment in estimating the fair value of the Seva Mining share consideration, as described in Note 6b. The fair value of the shares at initial recognition was determined using the quoted price of Seva Mining common shares based on a 10-day volume-weighted average price (“VWAP”) from the first trading day on March 18 to March 31, 2026. A blended discount for lack of marketability (“DLOM”) was applied to reflect reduced liquidity arising from the applicable transfer restrictions in the Amalgamation and Investors Rights Agreement. Because the valuation required the use of assumptions and estimation inputs, the fair value measurement is subject to estimation uncertainty.

Deferred Consideration Receivable – Stockpile Agreement

As part of the consideration received on the sale of Cameron Gold, the Company is entitled to quarterly participation payments under a stockpile agreement (“Stockpile Agreement”), subject to a minimum aggregate payment of $2.0 million. Management applied judgment in determining the fair value of this receivable at initial recognition. The Company recognized only the fair value of the $2.0 million minimum payment amount, as management concluded that the amount and timing of any variable participation payments in excess of the minimum amount could not be reasonably estimated at the transaction date due to uncertainties relating to processing results, recoveries, commodity prices, deductions and timing of realization.

The accounts of material subsidiaries are prepared for the same reporting period as the parent company. All subsidiaries apply consistent accounting policies. Inter-company transactions, balances and unrealized gains or losses on transactions are eliminated. The following table highlights the Company’s material subsidiaries with their projects:

Name of the subsidiary

Duparquet Gold Mines Inc.

These financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors on May 12, 2026.

3. MARKETABLE SECURITIES

5. MINERAL PROPERTIES (continued)

The Company has various underlying agreements and commitments with respect to its mineral properties, which define annual or future payments in connection with maintenance of property interests, the most significant of which is discussed below.

a) Springpole Project

During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company completed an amendment to a royalty agreement related to the Springpole Project with a private holder. In connection with the amendment, the Company issued 6,017,000 common shares and made a cash payment of $1.4 million. The total consideration was capitalized to mineral property acquisition costs.

b) Duparquet Project

As at March 31, 2026, the Company’s provision for environmental remediation activities is $2,806,000 (year ended December 31, 2025 - $2,806,000). The environmental remediation includes site preparation, construction of a storage area, construction of an access road, excavation and transportation of mining material, and site restoration and rehabilitation of the historical storage area. The Company has received permit approval in 2025 from the Ministry of Environment, the Fight Against Climate Change, Wildlife and Parks (“MELCCFP”). Phase 1 of the remediation project, which primarily involved construction of the new storage area, was completed in November 2025. Phase 2 of the environmental remediation cost is based on the current scope of work and management’s best estimate of the remaining costs required to complete the remediation activities. The final environmental remediation cost may vary depending on additional feedback received from MELCCFP and the execution of the work.

6. INVESTMENT IN SEVA MINING CORP.

a) Seva Mining Purchase Agreement Overview

On March 10, 2026, the Company completed the sale of its previously owned subsidiary, Cameron Gold, which owns the Cameron Gold Project to Seva Mining under an amalgamation agreement pursuant to which the Company received (i) $5.0 million in cash; (ii) 80.0 million common shares of Seva Mining; and (iii) a future cash payment of at least $2.0 million to be received upon the processing of a stockpile at the Cameron Gold Project pursuant to the Stockpile Agreement. The transaction was previously announced as having a total estimated consideration of approximately $27.0 million. The final consideration amount was measured at fair value upon closing of the transaction on March 10, 2026 as described below.

b) Recognition of Consideration Received

The components of the consideration received in connection with the sale of Cameron Gold comprised the following:

Transaction Consideration

Cash

$ 5,000

Seva Mining shares

24,867

Deferred consideration related to Stockpile Agreement

1,720

Total

$ 31,587

Share Consideration

The Company accounts for its investment in Seva Mining using the equity method under IAS 28. The fair value of the Seva shares at closing of $24,867,000 was determined using the quoted price of Seva Mining common shares on the 10-day VWAP from start of the first trading day on March 18 to March 31, 2026. The Company was unable to use the quoted price on March 10, 2026 as the shares of Seva was not actively traded at that date. A blended DLOM was applied to account for the reduced liquidity to reflect the applicable transfer restrictions in accordance with the Amalgamation and Investors Rights Agreement between First Mining and Seva Mining.

Deferred Consideration Receivable - Stockpile Agreement

As part of the consideration received for the disposition of Cameron Gold, the Company is entitled to a future payment related to the processing and sale of ore stockpiles under the Stockpile Agreement. The stockpile receivable has been recognized as a financial asset and measured at fair value at initial recognition under IFRS 9 at the transaction date. Subsequent measurement will be measured at FVTPL.

The fair value of the future payment of the ore stockpile was $1,720,000. The fair value was determined using a discounted cash flow model based on expected future cash flows from the processing and sale of the stockpile, incorporating assumptions, including: (i) the expected timing of funds received; and (ii) a risk-adjusted discount rate. The measurement is classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy because it incorporates significant unobservable inputs. Changes in these assumptions could have a material impact on the estimated fair value.

c) Disposal reconciliation

The carrying amount of Cameron Gold at March 10, 2026 was $27,023,000 and was held for sale. Upon closing, the Cameron Gold assets held for sale were derecognized and the gain on disposal was determined by comparing its carrying amount with the fair value of the consideration received.

d) Equity Accounting Method for Investment in Seva

In accounting for the disposition of Cameron Gold and the resulting investment in Seva Mining, management applied judgment in determining that the Company lost control of Cameron Gold on March 10, 2026 and therefore derecognized the subsidiary in accordance with IFRS 10. Following the transaction, the Company retained approximately 47.85% ownership in Seva and after evaluating of governance rights, board representation and ability to participate in Seva’s policy decisions, management concluded that it has significant influence over Seva. Accordingly, the retained interest was classified as an investment in associate and is accounted for using the equity method from the acquisition date.

Upon closing of the transaction, First Mining held 47.85% of Seva common shares (on an undiluted basis). The Company has concluded it has significant influence over Seva and accounts for its investment using the equity method from the acquisition date.

7. INVESTMENT IN PC GOLD INC.

As at March 31, 2026, the Company owns a 30% interest in PC Gold Inc. and maintains significant influence, which requires the investment to be accounted for using equity accounting. As at March 31, 2026 the investment in PC Gold Inc. was $21,523,000 (December 31, 2025 - $21,524,000). The subsequent equity accounting for PC Gold is based on audited results that are publicly available information for the year ended June 30, 2025, and on the unaudited financial information for the six-month period ended December 31, 2025.

As at March 31, 2026, the Company has recorded an option liability of $4,692,000 (December 31, 2025 - $4,692,000), which represents the additional net dilution that would result from FireFly Metals completing its additional 10% equity interest in PC Gold Inc. Following receipt of $3,000,000 under this option, First Mining’s ownership would reduce to 20%. The FireFly Metals Earn-In Agreement requires First Mining to contribute its prorata share of environmental reclamation funding, which was 30% as at March 31, 2026.

7. INVESTMENT IN PC GOLD INC. (continued)

As at March 31, 2026, the Company has recorded a liability for reclamation funding of $151,000 (December 31, 2025 - $151,000), which is in line with FireFly Metals’ estimate of the environmental reclamation provision.

On February 9, 2026, Firefly Metals Ltd. (“Firefly”) announced the sale of its 70% interest in PC Gold Inc. (“PC Gold”) to Bellavista Resources Limited for 60 million shares as upfront consideration upon completion of the Acquisition, together with 50 million performance rights as contingent consideration (“Bellavista Transaction”). In connection with this transaction, Bellavista has indicated its intention to exercise the PC Gold buydown right to increase their ownership to 80% of the Project by paying $3.0 million in cash, subject to completion of the transaction. Management performed an impairment assessment at March 31, 2026, and concluded no impairment was required as the estimated recoverable amount exceeded the carrying value of $21.5 million.

The Bellavista Transaction closed on April 29, 2026 and Bellavista exercised the PC Gold buydown right to increase their ownership to 80% of the Project by paying $3 million in cash to the Company. The Company’s ownership interest in PC Gold after the transaction closed has been reduced from 30% to 20%.

8. SILVER STREAM DERIVATIVE LIABILITY

a) Silver Purchase Agreement Overview and Consideration Received

On June 10, 2020, the Company entered into a silver purchase agreement (the “Silver Purchase Agreement”) with First Majestic Silver Corp. (“First Majestic”), closing on July 2, 2020. Under the agreement, First Majestic paid total consideration of US$22.5 million, and the Company issued common share purchase warrants, for the right to purchase 50% of payable silver produced from the Springpole Gold Project over the life of mine (the “Silver Stream”). The Company has received the total consideration in full, and all common share purchase warrants issued to First Majestic under the Silver Purchase Agreement have been exercised. Refer to the Company’s audited annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 for full details.

The Company retains the option to repurchase 50% of the Silver Stream for US$22.5 million (approximately $31.4 million as at March 31, 2026) at any time prior to commencement of production at the Springpole Gold Project. A Monte Carlo simulation was used to evaluate the buy-back option under the Silver Stream Agreement.

The Silver Stream has an initial term of 40-year term from July 2, 2020, with automatic 10-year extensions for the life of mine. If, upon expiry, the advance payment has not been fully credited through silver deliveries, the uncredited balance is refundable to First Majestic without interest. Silver may be substituted with refined silver from other sources, excluding silver purchased on a commodity exchange.

8. SILVER STREAM DERIVATIVE LIABILITY (continued)

b) Silver Stream Derivative Liability Fair Value

The Company has determined that the Silver Stream is a standalone derivative measured at FVTPL. The estimated fair value of the Silver Stream derivative liability is determined using a discounted cash flow model which incorporates a Monte Carlo simulation, with the following key input assumptions: 1) Observable assumptions including implied volatility of COMEX silver, COMEX silver future curve, silver spot price, USD risk-free rate, USD/CAD foreign exchange rates, and share price of the Company, and 2) Unobservable assumptions including the timing of commencement of production (2030 based on the updated prefeasibility study), estimated annual silver production volumes (averaging 1.47 million payable ounces a year over the life of mine based on the updated prefeasibility study), the Company’s credit spread, and payable silver quantities.

The fair value of the Silver Stream derivative liability is classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy because certain significant inputs are unobservable. The fair value is determined by a third party valuation expert using an independent Monte Carlo model reviewed quarterly by management. Unobservable inputs are updated based on recent comparable market data.

The estimated fair value is sensitive to changes in key assumptions, particularly silver spot prices, silver forward prices, foreign exchange rates, volatility assumptions, the Company’s credit spread and payable silver quantities, and a change in any of these assumptions could result in a material change in the estimated fair value. The table below summarizes the sensitivity of the fair value of the Silver Stream derivative liability to reasonably possible changes in key assumptions, with all other variables held constant.

The fair value of the Silver Stream derivative liability is valued using a Monte-Carlo simulation, with gains or losses recorded in the statement of net loss and comprehensive loss. As at March 31, 2026, the fair value of the Silver Stream derivative liability is US$86,184,000 ($120,131,000). The fair value of the Silver Stream derivative liability as at December 31, 2025 was US$78,258,000 ($107,260,000).

The change in fair value of the Silver Stream derivative liability reflects the net impact of changes in key valuation inputs, including silver prices, forward curves, volatility and foreign exchange rates. During the period, the movement was primarily influenced by the increase in forward curve, spot prices and foreign exchange partially offset by volatility. The valuation is sensitive to changes in these assumptions, as illustrated in the sensitivity analysis above.

During the three months ended March 31, 2026, 426,614 common shares were cancelled pursuant to sunset clause provisions related to historical acquisitions in 2016. No consideration was paid or received by the Company. The cancellation reduced shares issued and outstanding by 426,614 and resulted in a reduction in share capital with a corresponding reclassification within equity, with no impact on total equity or recognition of any gain or loss. This movement is included within share-based payment movements in the Statement of Changes in Equity.

The Company has adopted a stock option plan that allows for the granting of stock options to Directors, Officers, employees and certain consultants of the Company for up to 10% of the Company’s issued and outstanding common shares. Stock options granted under the plan may be subject to vesting provisions as determined by the Board of Directors.

During the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company issued 6,410,000 (year ended December 31, 2025 – 8,012,500) common shares pursuant to the exercise of stock options, for net proceeds of $2,251,000 (2025 - $1,157,000). The weighted average share price at the date of exercise of these stock options was $0.35 per share (2025 - $0.23). In connection with the exercises, the Company transferred $1,276,000 (2025 - $583,000) from share-based payment reserve to share capital.

During the three months ended March 31, 2026, there were 7,180,000 (year ended December 31, 2025 – 19,800,000) stock options granted with an aggregate fair value at the date of grant of $2,077,000 (year ended December 31, 2025 - $1,462,000). As at March 31, 2026, 11,355,000 (year ended December 31, 2025 – 10,000,000) stock options remain unvested with an aggregate grant date fair value of $2,100,000 (December 31, 2025 - $360,000).

Certain stock options granted were directly attributable to exploration and evaluation expenditures on mineral properties and were therefore capitalized to mineral properties.

In addition, certain stock options were subject to vesting provisions. These two factors result in differences between the aggregate fair value of stock options granted and total share-based payments expensed during the periods.

11. SHARE CAPITAL (continued)

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, share-based payments expense is comprised of stock options for $905,000, restricted share units (“RSUs”) for $183,000, deferred share units (“DSUs”) for $22,000, and performance share units (“PSUs”) for $130,000, which are classified within the financial statements as follows:

15. FAIR VALUE

Fair values have been determined for measurement and/or disclosure requirements based on the methods below.

The Company characterizes fair value measurements using a hierarchy that prioritizes inputs depending on the degree to which they are observable. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

·
Level 1 fair value measurements are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

·
Level 2 fair value measurements are those derived from inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices); and

·
Level 3 fair value measurements are those derived from valuation techniques that include significant inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, prepaid expenses and other receivables, and accounts payable, accrued and other liabilities approximated their fair values because of the short-term nature of these financial instruments. These financial instruments are financial assets and liabilities at amortized cost.

The carrying value of marketable securities was based on the quoted market prices of the shares as at March 31, 2026 and was therefore considered to be Level 1.

The fair value of the Seva Mining shares was determined using the 10-day VWAP from the start of the first trading day on March 18 to March 31, 2026, and adjusted for a discount for lack of marketability to reflect applicable transfer restrictions.

As at March 31, 2026, the Company’s deferred consideration related to stockpile recovery is classified as a financial asset at FVTPL. The fair value was determined using a discounted cash flow model based on expected future cash flows in accordance with the Stockpile Agreement. The measurement is classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy due to the use of significant unobservable inputs, including assumptions regarding recoverable quantities, timing of production, commodity prices and discount rates.

As at March 31, 2026, the Company’s option liability relating to PC Gold Inc. is classified as a financial liability at FVTPL. The fair value of the option liability was estimated using a fair value less costs of disposal benchmark implied by the February 2026 BellaVista Transaction. The measurement is classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy as it incorporates significant unobservable inputs, including assumptions related to probability-weighted performance rights and other contingent terms.

The Silver Stream was determined to be a derivative liability, which is classified as a financial liability at FVTPL. The carrying value of the derivative liability was not based on observable market data and involved complex valuation methods and was therefore considered to be Level 3. Changes in key valuation assumptions, including commodity prices and discount rates, could result in significant fluctuations in the fair value of the liability. The loss on the Silver Stream derivative was due to a 10% decrease in volatility in the underlying precious metal, a 6% increase in the forward curve of the silver price, and a 5% increase in the silver spot price as at March 31, 2026 compared to December 31, 2025.

COMPANY OVERVIEW AND STRATEGY

First Mining is advancing a portfolio of gold projects in Canada, with a focus on the Springpole Gold Project (the “Springpole Project” or “Springpole”) in northwestern Ontario, including the surrounding Birch-Uchi mineral tenure, and the Duparquet Gold Project (the “Duparquet Project” or “Duparquet”) in Quebec.

Springpole is one of the largest undeveloped gold projects in Ontario¹. The Company has commenced a Feasibility Study (“FS”). The Company announced on November 5, 2024, that it has successfully submitted the final Environmental Impact Statement/Environmental Assessment (“EIS/EA”), while concurrently continuing with permitting activities. First Mining has received over 1,900 comments from various stakeholders and continues to engage and consult various Indigenous communities, municipalities, regulators and stakeholders by holding community open house meetings as well as technical reviews and meetings.

In September 2022, First Mining acquired 100% ownership of the Duparquet Project, one of the largest undeveloped gold projects in Quebec. The Company filed a Preliminary Economic Assessment (“PEA”) on the Duparquet Project in October 2023 and has been actively advancing exploration on the property since 2023. First Mining has a 20% interest in the Pickle Crow Gold Project (“Pickle Crow”) in Ontario, being advanced in a joint venture with Bellavista Resources Limited (“Bellavista”) formerly owned by Firefly Metals Ltd. (“Firefly”). On February 3, 2026, the Company announced that Firefly agreed to sell its 70% interest to Bellavista. See Corporate Highlights below for further details.

The Company remains focused on advancing its strategic objectives towards several near-term milestones, which include:

·
Completing the Springpole federal and provincial EA processes which includes a focus on community, Indigenous rights holder and stakeholder engagement, and working with local and Indigenous communities in anticipation of a federal and provincial EA decision in the first half of fiscal 2026; further baseline studies including post-EA approval characterization work and permitting are planned for 2026.

·
Completing geophysical, geochemical, and geotechnical field programs surrounding the Co-Disposal Facility (“CDF”) and dike locations at Springpole. These workstreams are critical to supporting the upcoming Feasibility Study (“FS”); additionally, the Company is transitioning to the Feasibility phase in the second half of the year; while concurrently advancing Springpole and Birch-Uchi exploration activities to identify and follow-up on regional targets.

·
Advancing Springpole exploration programs aimed at further evaluating near-mine and regional targets to support continued resource growth potential and improve geological understanding of the broader project area. Concurrently, exploration activities at Springpole and Birch-Uchi will continue to focus on identifying and prioritizing follow-up drill targets.

·
Advancing exploration, environmental and technical work at the Duparquet Gold Project, including environmental baseline monitoring (geochemistry, surface water monitoring and hydrology), Phase 2 environmental remediation activities planned for 2026, and continued geological data compilation, integration, field programs and drilling to support ongoing resource expansion, project optimization and mine planning.

·
Implementing the Memorandum of Understanding for community development and collaboration on the Duparquet Gold Project with the city of Duparquet.

This represents mineral property expenditures per consolidated statements of cash flows.

The basic and diluted loss per share calculations result in the same amount due to the anti-dilutive effect of outstanding stock options and warrants.

(3)
This is a non-IFRS measurement with no standardized meaning under IFRS Accounting Standards and may not be comparable to similar financial measures presented by other issuers. For further information please see the section in this MD&A titled “Non-IFRS Measures” and “Trends in Liquidity, Working Capital, and Capital Resources”. The working capital balance on December 31, 2025 was comprised of Cameron held for sale, which was subsequently sold in Q1 2026, reducing the balance for the period ended March 31, 2026.

(4)
Non-current Liabilities is primarily comprised of the Silver Stream derivative liability for $120.1 million and is impacted by the estimated fair value on a quarterly basis using a discounted cash flow model which incorporates a Monte Carlo simulation with key input assumptions of silver price, silver forward curve, volatility and foreign exchange. Changes in these assumptions could result in material change in the estimated fair value.

Net Loss – The net loss for the current period decreased compared to the net loss in the same period in 2025, primarily due to a reduction in the fair value loss of $4.4 million attributed to Silver Stream, together with an equity gain from the Cameron Gold transaction.

Cash and Cash Equivalents – The decrease in cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 2026 from December 31, 2025 was driven primarily by $8.5 million of mineral property expenditures, principally at the Springpole Project, $1.4 million cash payment in connection with the renegotiation of royalty terms at the Springpole Project with a private royalty holder, and the remainder of cash used in operating activities. These uses of cash were partially offset by $6.6 million from the exercise of options and warrants and $5.0 million of cash proceeds from the Cameron Gold transaction.

Total Assets – The increase relative to the period ended December 31, 2025, was primarily driven by a $14.5 million increase in cash and non-cash mineral property expenditures, mainly at the Springpole project, due to the renegotiation of royalty terms and advancement of technical and environmental activities.

Springpole Exploration

The Springpole exploration programs for 2026 will continue to build on advancements achieved over the past two years of exploration. The successful 2024 Phase 1 drilling at the East Extension target significantly enhanced geological understanding of the Springpole deposit and returned significant widths of continuous mineralization including 0.75 g/t Au and 3.30 g/t Ag over 134.2m, and 0.67 g/t Au and 12.79 g/t Ag over 105.4m (drill hole SP24-011). The focus for 2026 will be to further refine and advance 3D geological models, supported by additional field programs and potential drilling. Future work will continue to prioritize drill testing of targets within the Springpole East and Southeast extensions, both located within the current project footprint.

Technical Programs

First Mining has been engaged in several significant technical programs to further optimize the development plan for Springpole and to further define the project scope for the Final EIS/EA, which was submitted in November 2024, and into the Feasibility Study (“FS”) process. These programs include FS-level metallurgical test work, geotechnical and site investigation work to support FS-level preliminary pit slope, dike and Co-Disposal Facility design, revisions to the PFS mine plan, completion of a power connectivity study, exploring renewable power generation opportunities, additional environmental data collection, and predictive environmental effects modelling and studies.

Site investigation activities initiated in fall 2025 and completed in April 2026, included the drilling of 58 holes totaling 2,946 m to support the ongoing geotechnical, hydrogeological and geochemical characterization work in and around the pit, CDF and dyke areas. In addition, geophysical work, including 7,600 metres of combined ground seismic and resistivity surveys as well as downhole geophysical surveys on selected drill holes, was completed in support of the geotechnical programs. The First Mining technical team has engaged WSP Canada to perform a gap analysis and overall design geochemistry work to substantiate the water quality and water balance (WB), and has engaged TBT Engineering to review the design concepts for the mine access road and the required geotechnical program.

Environmental Impact Statement/Environmental Assessment (EIS/EA)

Consultation and engagement on the Final EIS/EA with Indigenous communities, municipalities, regulators and stakeholders has advanced significantly following the submission of the Final EIS/EA in Q4 2024. The Company has addressed all of the federal and the majority of provincial comments/information requests and continues to respond and meet with the reviewers to conclude on final technical matters. The federal decision is expected in H1 2026, with the provincial decision to follow shortly after. In addition, the Company has continued to progress the Fish Habitat Offsetting and Compensation Plan through review and collaboration with the federal Department of Fisheries and Oceans Canada, as well as input from the Ministry of Energy and Mines and Environment Canada and Climate Change.

The reader is advised that the PEA is preliminary in nature and is intended to provide only an initial, high-level review of the Project potential and design options. The PEA mine plan and economic model include numerous assumptions and the use of Inferred mineral resources. Inferred mineral resources are considered too speculative geologically to have the economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves and to be used in an economic analysis except as allowed for in PEA studies. There is no guarantee that Inferred resources can be converted to Indicated or Measured resources, and as such, there is no certainty that the PEA or Project economics described herein will be realized or achieved.

Economic Sensitivities

The Project economics and cash flows are highly sensitive to changes in the price of gold, as detailed in Table 2.

Exploration Program

In early March 2025, First Mining commenced its 2025 exploration program at Duparquet with the Phase 3B winter program, consisting of one drill rig to test the recent Miroir discovery zone and follow up on further extensional opportunities at the CVD target area. A second drill rig was added in Q2 2025 for the Phase 4 program, focusing on further advancing select priority resource expansion targets (North Zone, Buzz, Miroir, Aiguille, and South Zone), as well as supporting regional exploration discovery opportunities. The 2025 drill program was completed in late September, and comprised 16,404m in 43 holes.

The 2025 drilling focused on expanding known mineralized zones and testing new areas of interest. At the Miroir discovery zone, near-surface drilling extended the mineralized structure to approximately 100m along strike and 100m depth, where it remains open. Key results include drill hole DUP25-064 returning 3.23 g/t Au over 25.9m (including 11.20 g/t Au over 2.0m) and DUP25-077 returning 3.20 g/t Au over 15.75m (including 5.21 g/t Au over 8.65m), confirming continuity of multiple high-grade gold zones.

At the Valentre target, located approximately 225m south of Miroir, drilling confirmed high-grade mineralization at depth and system continuity, highlighted by drill hole DUP25-054 returning 3.96 g/t Au over 9.3m (including 5.71 g/t Au over 5.8m) and DUP25-057 returning 2.80 g/t Au over 3.25m (including 4.93 g/t Au over 1.75m).

(Presented in Canadian dollars, unless otherwise indicated)

For the three months ended March 31, 2026

A new discovery, the Minuit zone, was identified north of the historical Donchester Mine, where drill hole DUP25-059 returned 2.25 g/t Au over 12.8m (including 4.08 g/t Au over 4.0m), demonstrating the potential for additional mineralized zones within underexplored areas of the system.

At the Aiguille zone, drilling continued to extend mineralization along strike to approximately 100m, with drill hole DUP25-058 returning 1.43 g/t Au over 24.1m (including 4.56 g/t Au over 4.0m), confirming continuity of mineralization and the target remaining open.

Drilling at the Central Duparquet–Valentre (CVD) target area further supported expansion of the mineralized footprint and demonstrated continuity along strike and at depth.

Overall, the 2025 program contributed to the advancement of multiple resource expansion targets and improved geological understanding of the broader Duparquet mineral system, including the identification of new mineralized areas.

During 2025, First Mining completed approximately 16,500m of exploration drilling along with regional field programs at the Duparquet Gold Project, focused on advancing priority targets with strong resource growth potential and further defining the broader regional gold endowment in support of future development optionality. This program represented the largest exploration drill campaign undertaken by the Company since acquiring full ownership of the Project in 2022.

Environmental and Permitting

First Mining has initiated discussions with the relevant Quebec ministries to map out the regulatory approval path for the Duparquet project. In parallel, the Company initiated a targeted site remediation scope of work to address environmental and legacy issues as part of the redevelopment planning of the property. The scope of work addresses the February 15, 2023, Notice of Non-Compliance from the Ministry of the Environment, the Fight Against Climate Change, Wildlife and Parks (“MELCCFP”) in Quebec regarding the historical storage of 3,500 tons of historical mine byproduct material on the Duparquet property. Since acquiring the Duparquet Project, the Company has been proactively working with MELCCFP in respect of this historical environmental issue and on June 11, 2025, the Company received the required authorizations from the government of Quebec to carry out the construction work required to establish a newly engineered storage pad for the byproduct material. Construction of the storage pad was completed in November 2025 for a total cost of $2.4M. Phase 2 of the project, which includes material transfer and storage, is planned for 2026.

First Mining has initiated a substantial environmental baseline program at the Duparquet site including air quality, surface water quality, hydrology, aquatics, terrestrial, hydrogeology and geochemistry. The program started in early 2026 and will continue throughout the year, with data collected by qualified consultants to support future environmental regulatory processes.

Future Work Plans

The 2026 exploration outlook at the Duparquet Project will focus on building on the successful results from the 2025 exploration drilling through a balanced approach of exploration and definition drilling. The Company will aim to continue advancing key resource expansion targets by increasing geological confidence and identifying additional near-resource expansion opportunities to support potential resource growth and project advancement. The near-term workflows will include the integration and interpretation of the 2025 drilling results into the 3D geological model, supporting the refinement of existing targets and generation of new follow-up exploration targets for drilling. In parallel, the Company is planning a definition drill program to support increased confidence in select mineralized zones, alongside continued exploration drilling aimed at testing adjacent and underexplored areas.

Ongoing engineering activities will focus on technical studies, including metallurgical review, site infrastructure assessment, and advancing the understanding of opportunities and risks identified in the Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) to optimize project outcomes.

Environmental work programs will include the Phase 2 component of the bunker remediation program which is expected to be undertaken in Q2/Q3 2026.

Other Projects

Cameron Gold Project, Ontario

On March 10, 2026, the Company completed the sale of its previously owned subsidiary, Cameron Gold Operations, which owns the Cameron Gold Project to Seva Mining Corp. under an amalgamation agreement pursuant to which the Company received (i) $5.0 million in cash; (ii) 80.0 million common shares of Seva; and (iii) a future cash payment of at least $2.0 million to be received upon the processing of a stockpile at Cameron pursuant to a stockpile agreement. The transaction was previously announced as having total consideration of approximately $27.0 million; however, the fair value of Seva shares at closing was determined based on 80.0 million shares at $0.31 per share, using the 10-day volume-weighted average price from the start of the first trading day on March 18 to March 31, 2026, adjusted for a discount for lack of marketability to reflect applicable transfer restrictions. Upon closing of the transaction, First Mining held 47.85% of Seva common shares (on an undiluted basis) and nominated two individuals to its Board of Directors. The Company has concluded it has significant influence over Seva and accounts for its investment using the equity method from the acquisition date.

Pickle Crow Gold Project, Ontario (20% Project Interest)

On April 29, 2026, the Company announced that pursuant to the announcement on February 3, 2026, the Company’s new joint-venture partner at First Mining’s Pickle Crow project, Bellavista, has closed the acquisition of Firefly’s interest in PC Gold Inc., the entity that holds the project. Bellavista exercised its buy-down right at the Project and paid $3 million in cash to the Company to reduce the Company’s ownership in PC Gold from 30% to 20%. The Company’s interest in PC Gold is freely carried to a decision to mine at Pickle Crow.

The Pickle Crow Project hosts an Inferred Mineral Resource of 9.4 Mt grading 4.1 g/t Au and containing 1,230,500 oz Au. The technical report in support of these resources, entitled “An Updated Mineral Resource Estimate for the Pickle Crow Property, Patricia Mining Division, Northwestern Ontario, Canada” and dated June 15, 2018, was prepared for us by Micon International Limited in accordance with NI 43-101, and is available under our SEDAR+ profile at www.sedarplus.ca.

Hope Brook Gold Project, Newfoundland

First Mining owned a 20% interest in the Hope Brook Gold Project - a joint venture with Big Ridge who owned the remaining 80% interest and was the operator. On July 31, 2025, the Company completed the sale of its ownership stake, which had a fair value of $3,102,000, to Big Ridge for consideration of $3 million in cash and 7 million common shares of Big Ridge with a fair value of $1,120,000. The Company recorded a gain of $1,019,000 on the sale through profit and loss for IFRS accounting purposes.

These are non-IFRS measures with no standardized meaning under IFRS Accounting Standards. Refer to the section in this MD&A titled “Non-IFRS Measures” and “Trends in Liquidity, Working Capital, and Capital Resources”.

Key trends in the quarterly results are as follows:

Net income (loss) – The net loss for the current period decreased compared to the net loss in the same period in 2025, primarily due to a change in fair value loss of $4.4M attributed to Silver Stream and a gain of $4.6M on the disposal of Cameron Gold.

Cash and cash equivalents – The decrease in cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 2026 from December 31, 2025 was driven primarily by $8.5 million of mineral property expenditures, principally at the Springpole Project, a $1.4 million cash payment in connection with the renegotiation of royalty terms at the Springpole Project with a private royalty holder, and the remainder of cash used in operating activities. These uses of cash were partially offset by $6.6 million from the exercise of options and warrants and $5.0 million of cash proceeds from the Cameron Gold transaction.

Total assets – The increase relative to the period ended March 31, 2026, was primarily driven by a $14.5M increase in cash and non-cash mineral property expenditures, mainly at the Springpole project.

Total non-current liabilities – Changes are primarily due to period-end fair value movements in Silver Stream derivative liability.

Working capital is a non-IFRS measurement with no standardized meaning under IFRS Accounting Standards and may not be comparable to similar financial measures presented by other issuers. For further information, please see the section in this MD&A titled “Non-IFRS Measures – Working Capital” and “Trends in Liquidity, Working Capital, and Capital Resources".

Key reasons for variances over the prior year comparable period include:

·
Cash used in operating activities was $1 million higher than the prior year, primarily due to a $0.3 million decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities, reflecting the timing of payments and the settlement of year-end accruals during the current period, a $0.3 million increase in prepaid expenditures and a $0.3 million increase in receivables.

·
Cash flows related to investing activities were $1.2 million lower compared to the prior year due to a $1.3 million increased spend on mineral properties and $1.4 million in acquisition costs related to the amended royalty agreement and property purchase with private holders, offset by $5 million received from Seva Mining for the sale of Cameron.

·
Cash flows related to financing activities were $0.7 million lower in 2026 compared to the prior year with $6.6 million received from warrant and option exercises in 2026 versus $7.2 million received from First Majestic for the third tranche payment related to silver stream.

·
Working capital is higher at the end of the current period primarily due to high cash balances driven by financing receipts from Q3 2025 and the $5 million received from the Cameron Gold transaction in Q1 2026.

Trends in Liquidity, Working Capital, and Capital Resources

The Company’s financial statements were prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that the Company will continue its operations for at least twelve months from the current reporting period and will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.

As of March 31, 2026, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $41,856,000 (December 31, 2025 - $43,346,000), working capital of $24,977,000 (December 31, 2025 - $50,642,000) which is calculated as current assets less current liabilities, and an accumulated deficit of $269,697,000 (December 31, 2025 - $258,814,000). The Company had a working capital balance of $29,669,000 (December 31, 2025 - $55,334,000) excluding the 10% Option on PC Gold with Firefly from current liabilities. As at March 31, 2026, the Company had unspent flow-through expenditure of $5,260,000 (March 31, 2025 - $3,338,000) all of which is required to be spent by December 31, 2026.

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company incurred a net loss of $11,020,000 (March 31, 2025 - $19,087,000) and used cash in operating activities of $2,808,000 (March 31, 2025 - $1,817,000). The net loss for the Company is primarily driven by the fair value loss on the Silver Stream liability for $12,871,000 during the quarter due to the decrease in market volatility and forward curve and slight increase in silver spot price. The Company’s operations to date have been financed by the issuance of common shares, sale of investments, assets, and royalties and the exercise of stock options and warrants. The continuing operations of the Company are dependent upon its ability to continue to raise adequate financing and liquidate its investments as necessary. On July 22, 2025, the Company closed a public offering for gross proceeds of $12,001,000. In addition, on August 5, 2025, the Company closed a private placement totaling approximately $24,437,000, which included flow-through unit proceeds of $7,334,000, to further support its capital requirements.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

All financial instruments are required to be measured at fair value on initial recognition, net of transaction costs in some cases. Fair value is based on quoted market prices unless the financial instruments are not traded in an active market. In this case, fair value is determined by using valuation techniques like the Black-Scholes option pricing model or other valuation techniques. Measurement in subsequent periods depends on the classification of the financial instrument. A description of the Company’s financial instruments and their fair value is included in Financial Statements, filed on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca. Risks related to financial instruments are discussed under Risks and Uncertainties.

In the normal course of business, the Company is inherently exposed to certain financial risks, including market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk, through the use of financial instruments. The timeframe and the manner in which we manage these risks varies based upon our assessment of these risks and available alternatives for mitigation. We do not acquire or issue derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. All transactions undertaken are to support our operations.

Risks Related to Financial Instruments

The Company thoroughly examines the various financial instruments and risks to which it is exposed and assesses the impact and likelihood of those risks. These risks include market risk (including equity price risk, foreign currency risk, interest rate risk and commodity price risk), credit risk, liquidity risk, and capital risk. Where material, these risks are reviewed and monitored by the Board.

The Board has overall responsibility for the determination of the Company’s risk management objectives and policies. The overall objective of the Board is to set policies that seek to reduce risk as much as possible without unduly affecting the Company’s competitiveness and flexibility.

Market Risk

Market risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate due to changes in market prices. Market risk includes equity price risk, foreign currency risk, interest rate risk and commodity price risk.

Page 18

FIRST MINING GOLD CORP.

Management’s Discussion & Analysis

(Presented in Canadian dollars, unless otherwise indicated)

For the three months ended March 31, 2026

Equity Price Risk

The Company is exposed to equity price risk as a result of holding investments in equity securities in other mineral exploration related companies. Given the current holdings, the exposure risk is not significant.

If the fair value of our investments in equity instruments designated as fair value through other comprehensive income had been 10% higher or lower as at March 31, 2026, other comprehensive loss for the three months ended March 31, 2026 would have decreased or increased, respectively, by $295,000 (March 31, 2025 - $201,000).

Foreign Currency Risk

The Company is exposed to financial risk related to the fluctuation of foreign exchange rates. As at March 31, 2026, the Company was exposed to currency risk on the following financial instruments denominated in US$. The sensitivity of the Company’s net loss due to changes in the exchange rate between the US$ against the Canadian dollar is included in the table below in Canadian dollar equivalents:

March 31, 2026

Cash, cash equivalents

$ 8,658

Net exposure

$ 8,658

Effect of +/- 10% change in currency

$ 866

Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that future cash flows will fluctuate as a result of changes in market interest rates. The Company does not have any borrowings that are subject to fluctuations in market interest rates. Interest rate risk is limited to potential decreases on the interest rate offered on cash and cash equivalents held with chartered Canadian financial institutions. The Company manages its interest rate risk by maximizing the interest income earned on excess funds while maintaining the necessary liquidity to conduct its day-to-day operations. The Company considers this risk to be immaterial.

Commodity Price Risk

The Company is subject to commodity price risk from fluctuations in the market prices for gold and silver. Commodity price risks are affected by many factors that are outside the Company’s control including global or regional consumption patterns, the supply of and demand for metals, speculative activities, the availability and costs of metal substitutes, inflation, and geopolitical and economic conditions. The financial instruments impacted by commodity prices are the Silver Stream derivative liability and indirectly the PC Gold Option held relating to the net dilution from Firefly Metals Ltd completing its additional 10% equity interest in PC Gold and reducing First Mining’s ownership to 20%. The Company’s net loss sensitivity changes in commodity price risk would have increased or decreased by approximately $11.6 million if the commodity price had been 10% higher or lower as at March 31, 2026.

Credit Risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. Financial instruments which are potentially subject to credit risk for the Company consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts and other receivables, short-term investments and the reclamation deposit. The Company considers credit risk with respect to its cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments to be immaterial as cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments are mainly held through high credit quality major Canadian financial institutions as determined by ratings agencies. As a result, the Company does not anticipate any credit losses.

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they become due. The Company’s policy is to ensure that it will have sufficient cash to allow it to meet its liabilities when they become due. The Company manages its liquidity risk by preparing annual estimates of exploration and administrative expenditures and monitoring actual expenditures compared to the estimates to ensure that there is sufficient capital on hand to meet ongoing obligations.

NON-IFRS MEASURES

Alternative performance measures in this document such as “cash cost”, “AISC” and “AIC” are furnished to provide additional information. These non-IFRS performance measures are included in this MD&A because these statistics are used as key performance measures that management uses to monitor and assess future performance of the Springpole Gold Project, and to plan and assess the overall effectiveness and efficiency of mining operations.

The Company has included certain non-IFRS measures in the annual and quarterly information tables above for the calculation of the working capital as current assets less current liabilities. The Company believes that these measures provide investors with an improved ability to evaluate the performance of the Company.

Non-IFRS measures do not have any standardized meaning prescribed under IFRS Accounting Standards. Therefore, such measures may not be comparable to similar measures employed by other companies. The data is intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards.

DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The Company’s Management, with the participation of its Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and its CFO, have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon the results of that evaluation, the Company’s CEO and CFO have concluded that, as of March 31, 2026, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports it files is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the appropriate time periods and is accumulated and communicated to Management, including the CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

MANAGEMENT’S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

The Company’s Management, with the participation of its CEO and CFO, is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as such term is defined in the SEC’s rules and the rules of the Canadian Securities Administrators. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of annual financial statements for external purposes in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. The Company’s internal control is effective. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that:

·
address maintaining records that accurately and fairly reflect, in reasonable detail, the transactions and dispositions of assets of the Company;

·
provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary for preparation of financial statements in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards;

·
provide reasonable assurance that the Company’s receipts and expenditures are made only in accordance with authorizations of Management and the Company’s Directors; and

·
provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

The Company’s internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect all misstatements because of inherent limitations. Additionally, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness for future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with the Company’s policies and procedures. There have been no significant changes in our internal controls during the three months ended March 31, 2026 that have materially affected, or are likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Page 22

LIMITATIONS OF CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The Company’s Management, including the CEO and CFO, believe that any disclosure controls and procedures or internal control over financial reporting, no matter how well conceived and operated, may not prevent or detect all misstatements because of inherent limitations. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, they cannot provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been prevented or detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by unauthorized override of the control. The design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Accordingly, because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and may not be detected.

FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

This MD&A is based on a review of the Company’s operations, financial position and plans for the future based on facts and circumstances as of March 31, 2026. This MD&A contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of applicable Canadian securities regulations (collectively, “forward-looking statements”). 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, using words or phrases such as “seek”, “anticipate”, “plan”, “continue”, “estimate”, “expect”, “may”, “will”, “project”, “predict”, “forecast”, “potential”, “targeting”, “intend”, “could”, “might”, “should”, “believe” and similar expressions) are not statements of historical fact and may be “forward-looking statements”. These statements relate to future events or future performance and reflect current estimates, predictions, expectations or beliefs regarding future events. All forward-looking statements are based on First Mining's or its consultants' current beliefs as well as various assumptions made by them and information currently available to them. There can be no assurance that such statements will prove to be accurate, and actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements.. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: statements regarding the advancement of the Company’s mineral assets towards production; statements regarding the potential for the Company to acquire additional mineral assets in the future; the Company’s plans to advance the Duparquet Gold Project in 2026 by continuing exploration programs and project derisking coupled with mining scenario optimization studies; statements regarding the next stages and anticipated timing of the metallurgical study or the environmental; statements regarding the completion of a FS for the Springpole Gold Project; statements regarding opportunities to enhance project economics identified under the PFS for the Springpole Gold Project; statements regarding the potential increase in gold and silver recoveries at the Springpole Gold Project; statements regarding opportunities for resource expansion within the existing footprint of Springpole and in the under-explored Birch-Uchi greenstone belt; statements regarding the continuation of environmental data collection at Springpole, and consultation and engagement with Indigenous communities, regulators and stakeholders to support the final EA; statements regarding the anticipated receipt, timing and use of proceeds received by First Mining pursuant to the Silver Purchase Agreement; statements regarding the Company’s intentions and expectations regarding exploration, infrastructure and production potential of any of its mineral properties; statements relating to the Company’s working capital, capital expenditures and ability and intentions to raise capital; statements regarding the potential effects of financing on the Company’s capitalization, financial condition and operations; forecasts relating to mining, development and other activities at the Company’s operations; forecasts relating to market developments and trends in global supply and demand for gold; statements relating to future global financial conditions and the potential effects on the Company; statements relating to future work on the Company’s non-material properties; statements relating to the Company’s mineral reserve and mineral resource estimates; statements regarding regulatory approval and permitting including, but not limited to, Final EIS/EA approval for the Springpole Gold Project and the expected timing of such Final EIS/EA approval; statements regarding achieving a strong balance sheet and cash position to fund investing activities consistent with the Company’s business strategy; statements regarding key personnel; statements regarding non-IFRS measures and changes in accounting standards; statements relating to the limitation of the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting; and statements regarding the preparation or conduct of studies and reports and the expected timing of the commencement and completion of such studies and reports; and statements regarding the Company’s intention to continue with the ESG reporting framework outlined in the Company’s third annual ESG report that was published in June 2024.

Page 23

There can be no assurance that such statements will prove to be accurate, and future events and actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the Company’s expectations are disclosed under the heading “Risks that can affect our business” in the Company’s AIF for the year ended December 31, 2025 and other continuous disclosure documents filed from time to time via SEDAR+ with the applicable Canadian securities regulators. Forward-looking statements reflect the beliefs, opinions and projections of management on the date the statements are made and are based upon a number of assumptions and estimates that, while considered reasonable by the respective parties, are inherently subject to significant business, economic, competitive, political and social uncertainties and contingencies. Such factors include, without limitation the Company’s business, operations and financial condition potentially being materially adversely affected by the outbreak of epidemics, pandemics or other health crises, and by reactions by government and private actors to such outbreaks; risks to employee health and safety as a result of the outbreak of epidemics, effectiveness of environmental mitigations including pandemics or other health crises, that may result in a slowdown or temporary suspension of operations at some or all of the Company's mineral properties as well as its head office; fluctuations in the spot and forward price of gold, silver, base metals or certain other commodities; fluctuations in the currency markets (such as the Canadian dollar versus the U.S. dollar); changes in national and local government, legislation, taxation, controls, regulations and political or economic developments; requirements for additional capital; changes in project parameters as plans continue to be refined; variations in ore reserves, grade or recovery rates; actual performance of plant, equipment or processes relative to specifications and expectations; risks and hazards associated with the business of mineral exploration, development and mining (including environmental hazards, industrial accidents, unusual or unexpected formations, pressures, cave-ins and flooding); the presence of laws and regulations that may impose restrictions on mining; employee relations; relationships with and claims by local communities, indigenous populations and other stakeholders; availability and increasing costs associated with mining inputs and labour; the speculative nature of mineral exploration and development; and title to properties. The Company believes that the expectations reflected in any such forward-looking statements are reasonable, but no assurance can be given that these expectations will prove to be correct and such forward-looking statements included herein this MD&A should not be unduly relied upon.

CAUTIONARY NOTE TO U.S. INVESTORS

The technical information contained herein has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the securities laws in effect in Canada, which differ from the requirements of the United States securities laws applicable to U.S. companies. Accordingly, information concerning mineral deposits set forth herein may not be comparable with information made public by companies that report in accordance with U.S. standards. Technical disclosure contained in this MD&A has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of United States securities laws as it allows for MJDS filers to use Canadian requirements and uses terms that comply with reporting standards in Canada with certain estimates prepared in accordance with NI 43-101. NI 43-101 is a rule developed by the Canadian Securities Administrators that establishes standards for all public disclosure an issuer makes of scientific and technical information concerning the issuer’s material mineral projects.
