Q1 FY 2026 Operating Update

Vivek Gadodia and Juan Kemp, Joint Interim Chief Executive Officers of Petra Diamonds, commented:

“As mentioned in our FY 2025 Financial Results announcement on 17 October 2025, this quarter we have been focused on the continued execution of our updated business plan. Our product mix has continued to improve, especially for Cullinan Mine, as evidenced by the results of our first two tenders of FY 2026. The tenders delivered US$52 million in revenue with average prices increasing 53% over Q4 FY 2025, with product mix contributing 61%, partially offset by an 8% decrease in like-for-like prices.

Cullinan Mine faced some productivity issues in the early part of the quarter as it transitioned from a continuous operation to its new 3-shift configuration, but this has since begun to stabilise. Finsch had a steady production quarter as we continue to open up new parts of the orebody. We remain confident of delivering on our FY 2026 guidance released in August 2025.

Petra recorded 8.5 years fatality free by the end of Q1 FY 2026 representing 8.5 million fatality free shifts, with the LTIFR improving to 0.27 from 0.58 in Q4 FY 2025. Safety remains a key priority area with the key focus on reinstating a sense of stability for our employees following a time of significant internal change at the Company."

Cullinan Mine – South Africa

Note: 1. Petra is not able to precisely measure the ROM / tailings grade split because ore from both sources is processed through the same plant; the Company therefore back-calculates the grade with reference to resource grades.
