Forward-looking statements
This Form 40-F and the exhibits attached hereto contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), including the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and applicable Canadian securities laws, concerning Alamos Gold Inc.’s (“Alamos” or the “registrant”) plans for its properties and other matters. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, which address events, results, outcomes or developments that Alamos expects to occur are, or may be deemed, to be, forward-looking statements and are based on expectations, estimates and projections as at the date of this Form 40-F. Forward-looking statements are generally, but not always, identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as "expect", “assume”, "believe", "anticipate", "likely", "intend", "objective", "estimate", "budget", “potential”, "prospective", "opportunity", "forecast", “target”, "goal", "aim", “on track”, "on pace", “on schedule”, “outlook”, “continue”, “ongoing”, "onwards", “plan”, "scheduled", or variations of such words and phrases and similar expressions or statements that certain actions, events or results “may”, “could”, “would”, “might” or “will” be taken, occur or be achieved or the negative connotation of such terms.
Such statements include, but may not be limited to, information, assumptions, expectations and guidance as to strategy, plans, and future financial and operating performance, such as those regarding: free cash flow; mine-site free cash flow; costs (including total cash costs, AISC, mine-site AISC, capital expenditures, growth and sustaining capital, capitalized exploration, exploration spending); budgets; IRR; NPV; returns to stakeholders; impacts of inflation; mine plans; mine life; Mineral Reserve life; Mineral Reserves and Resources; gold and other metal price assumptions; foreign exchange rates; size, value and profitability of operations; project economics; project risks; sufficiency for planned mining operations of surface rights, power sources, water, mining personnel, tailings storage areas and waste disposal; mining methodologies; underground development rates; mining, milling and processing rates; total mill feed and throughput rates; recovery rates; anticipated gold production, production rates, timing of production, further production potential and growth; gold grades; exploration potential, budgets, focuses, programs, targets, and projected results; investment in and funding of growth initiatives and projects; the Company's approach to reduction of its environmental footprint, greenhouse gas emissions, and related investments in new initiatives; the Company's climate change strategy and goals; community relations, engagement activities, and initiatives; corporate governance; plans with respect to health and safety; outlooks for each of the Island Gold District (IGD), Young-Davidson mine (YD), Mulatos District, the Lynn Lake project (LLP) and the Qiqavik Gold project, including (without limitation and in addition to the above): (i) at IGD, the Expansion Study, effects of completion of the IGD Expansion and the Phase 3+ Expansion Project, Magino mill expansion, (ii) at YD, completion of a fourth ore pass, opportunity for mill expansion and sources of supplemental feed; (iii) at the Mulatos District, construction of, the development and mine plan for, and expected results from the Puerto Del Aire (PDA) project, ore from Cerro Pelon, and the Halcon target; (iv) at LLP, construction activities, including timing of completion of construction of a permanent camp; and (v) at the Qiqavik Gold project, exploration potential; the quantum of consideration payable to the Company for the sale of Quartz Mountain to Q-Gold, including future guaranteed and milestone payments; the expected timing of remaining payments with respect to the sale of the Company's Turkish development projects and the status of arbitration brought by the Company's Netherlands subsidiaries against the Republic of Türkiye; and any other statements that express management's expectations or estimates of future performance, operational, geological or financial results.
Alamos cautions that forward-looking statements are necessarily based upon a number of factors and assumptions that, while considered reasonable by Alamos at the time of making such statements, are inherently subject to significant business, economic, technical, legal, political and competitive uncertainties and contingencies. Known and unknown factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements and information.
Risk factors that may affect Alamos’ ability to achieve the expectations set forth in the forward-looking statements in this Form 40-F include, but are not limited to: the actual results of current exploration activities; changes to current estimates of Mineral Reserves and Resources; changes to production estimates (which assume accuracy of projected ore grade, mining rates, recovery timing and recovery rate estimates which may be impacted by unscheduled maintenance, weather issues, labour and contractor availability and other operating or technical difficulties in connection with mining or development activities, including geotechnical challenges); conclusions of economic and geological evaluations; the costs and timing of exploration, construction and development of new deposits; changes in project parameters as plans continue to be refined; operations may be exposed to illnesses, diseases, epidemics and pandemics which may impact, among other things, the broader market and the trading price of the Company's shares; the duration of any regulatory responses to any illness, disease, epidemic or pandemic; government and the Company’s attempts to reduce the spread of any illness, disease, epidemic or pandemic which may affect many aspects of the Company's operations including the ability to transport personnel to and from site, contractor and supply availability and the ability to sell or deliver gold doré bars; provincial, state and federal orders or mandates (including with respect to mining operations generally or auxiliary businesses or services required for the Company’s operations) in Canada, Mexico and other jurisdictions in which the Company does or may conduct business; political and economic conditions and
-4-
developments in the jurisdictions in which the Company operates and in the world generally; fluctuations in the price of gold or certain other commodities such as, diesel fuel, natural gas, and electricity; changes in foreign exchange rates (particularly CAD, MXN and USD); the impact of inflation and any tariffs, trade barriers and/or regulatory costs; changes in the Company's credit rating; any decision to declare a quarterly dividend; employee and community relations; litigation, administrative or regulatory proceedings and any resulting court, administrative, regulatory or arbitral decision(s) or order(s); disruptions affecting operations; availability of and increased costs associated with mining inputs and labour; delays in implementing growth and improvement initiatives; delays with the Phase 3+ Shaft Expansion, the IGD Expansion, construction of the 115kV powerline (including the risk that an expropriation order is not granted by the OEB and the Alamos/BFN partnership cannot otherwise come to an agreement with the Corridor Landowner), expansion of the Magino mill, paste plant construction project, construction of the Lynn Lake Project, construction of the PDA project, and/or the development or updating of mine plans; changes with respect to the intended method of accessing, mining the deposit, and processing any ore at PDA; risks associated with the start-up of new mines; the risk that the Company’s mines may not perform as planned; with respect to the sale of Quartz Mountain, the failure by Q-Gold to make the requisite future payments and actions required to trigger milestone payments not being implemented or coming to fruition; with respect to the sale of the Company's Turkish development projects, default on either or both of the anniversary payments as well as the potential that the arbitration commenced by the Company's Netherlands subsidiaries is resumed; uncertainty with the Company’s ability to secure additional capital to execute its business plans; the speculative nature of mineral exploration and development, including the risks of obtaining and maintaining necessary licenses and permits, including the necessary licenses, permits, authorizations and/or approvals from the appropriate regulatory authorities for the Company’s development stage and operating assets; labour and contractor availability (and being able to secure the same on favourable terms); contests over title to properties; expropriation or nationalization of property; inherent risks and hazards associated with mining and mineral processing including industrial hazards, industrial accidents, and environmental hazards including, without limitation, fires, floods, seismic activity and unusual or unexpected formations, pressures and cave-ins; changes in national and local government legislation, controls or regulations in Canada, Mexico, the United States and other jurisdictions in which the Company does or may carry on business in the future; increased costs and risks related to the potential impact of climate change; failure to comply with environmental and health and safety laws and regulations; disruptions in the maintenance or provision of required infrastructure and information technology systems; risk of loss due to sabotage, protests and other civil disturbances; the impact of global liquidity and credit availability and the values of assets and liabilities based on projected future cash flows; risks arising from holding derivative instruments; and business opportunities that may be pursued by the Company.
There can be no assurance that forward-looking statements will prove to be accurate and actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations include risks related to the on-going business of Alamos, including risks related to international operations; the actual results of current exploration activities; conclusions of economic evaluations and changes in project parameters as plans continue to be refined as well as future prices of gold, as well as those risk factors described in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Information Form, attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1. Although we have attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially, there may be other factors that cause results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. We can provide no assurance that such statements will prove to be accurate as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Accordingly, readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Alamos disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by applicable law.

Certifications and Disclosure Regarding Controls and Procedures
(a)Certifications. See Exhibits 99.4 through 99.7 to this Form 40-F.
(b)Disclosure Controls and Procedures.
As of the end of Alamos’ fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, Alamos’ principal executive officer and principal financial officer carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of Alamos’ “disclosure controls and procedures” (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act). Based on that evaluation, Alamos’ principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that as of the end of that fiscal year, Alamos’ disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by Alamos in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the registrant’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
It should be noted that, while Alamos’ principal executive officer and principal financial officer believe that Alamos’ disclosure controls and procedures provide a reasonable level of assurance that they are effective, they do not expect that Alamos’ disclosure controls and procedures or internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errors and fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived or operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.
(c)Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Management’s annual report on internal control over financial reporting appears under the heading “Internal Control over Financial Reporting” in Management’s Discussion and Analysis (filed as Exhibit 99.2 hereto), and is hereby incorporated by reference herein.
(d)Attestation Report of the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm. KPMG LLP (“KPMG”), the independent registered public accounting firm that audited Alamos’ Financial Statements, has issued its opinion on the effectiveness of Alamos’ internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025 (the “Attestation Report”). The Attestation Report is included in Exhibit 99.3 attached hereto, which is incorporated by reference into this Form 40-F.
(e)Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. There were no changes in Alamos’ internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the year ended December 31, 2025 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect, Alamos’ internal control over financial reporting.

Audit Committee Financial Experts
Alamos’ board of directors has determined that each of Claire Kennedy, David Fleck, Elaine Ellingham, Serafino Tony Giardini, and Richard McCreary, members of its audit committee, is an “audit committee financial expert” (as such term is defined in Form 40-F) and that each of Claire Kennedy, David Fleck, Elaine Ellingham, Serafino Tony Giardini and Richard McCreary is “independent” (as defined in the listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”).
Code of Ethics

The Code of Ethics is available for viewing on Alamos’ website at www.alamosgold.com under About –Corporate Governance - Corporate Policy Downloads and is available in print to any shareholder who requests it.

website, other than those documents filed as exhibits hereto or otherwise specifically referred to herein, does not form part of this Form 40-F, and any reference to the Alamos’ website herein is as an inactive textual reference only.
Principal Accountant Fees and Services
The information set forth under the heading “External Auditor Service Fees (By Category)” of the Annual Information Form, attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1, is incorporated by reference herein.
The audit committee of Alamos’ board of directors has determined that the provision of these services is compatible with the maintenance of the independence of KPMG.
Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures

None of the services provided by the Alamos’ independent auditors described above were approved pursuant to a waiver of pre-approval provisions under SEC rules (paragraph (c)(7)(i)(C) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X.
Identification of the Audit Committee
Alamos has a separately-designated standing audit committee established in accordance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Exchange Act. The members of Alamos’ audit committee are: Claire Kennedy (Chair), David Fleck, Elaine Ellingham, Serafino Tony Giardini, and Richard McCreary.
DIFFERENCES IN UNITED STATES AND CANADIAN REPORTING PRACTICES
Alamos is permitted, under a multijurisdictional disclosure system adopted by the United States, to prepare documents incorporated by reference in this Form 40-F in accordance with Canadian disclosure requirements, which are different from those of the United States.
The documents incorporated by reference into this Form 40-F have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the securities laws in effect in Canada, which differ from the requirements of United States securities laws. Unless otherwise indicated, all mineral resource and reserve estimates included in the documents incorporated by reference into this Form 40-F have been prepared in accordance with National Instrument 43-101 - Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”) and the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (the “CIM”) - CIM Definition Standards on Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves, adopted by the CIM Council, as amended. NI 43-101 is a rule developed by the Canadian Securities Administrators, which established standards for all public disclosure an issuer makes of scientific and technical information concerning mineral projects. Mining disclosure in the United States was previously required to comply with SEC Industry Guide 7 (“SEC Industry Guide 7”) under the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The SEC has adopted rules to replace SEC Industry Guide 7 with new mining disclosure rules under sub-part 1300 of Regulation S-K of the U.S. Securities Act (“Regulation S-K 1300”), which became mandatory for U.S. reporting companies beginning with the first fiscal year commencing on or after January 1, 2021. Regulation S-K 1300 replaces the historical property disclosure requirements included in SEC Industry Guide 7. Under Regulation S-K 1300, the SEC now recognizes estimates of “Measured Mineral Resources”, “Indicated Mineral Resources” and “Inferred Mineral Resources”. In addition, the SEC has amended its definitions of “Proven Mineral Reserves” and “Probable Mineral Reserves” to be substantially similar to international standards. Readers are cautioned that despite efforts to harmonize U.S. mining disclosure rules with NI 43-101 and other international requirements, there are differences between the terms and definitions used in Regulation S-K 1300 and mining terms defined in the CIM Standards, which definitions have been adopted by NI 43‑101, and there is no assurance that any mineral reserves or mineral resources that Alamos may report as “proven mineral reserves”, “probable mineral reserves”, “measured mineral resources”, “indicated mineral resources” and “inferred mineral resources” under NI 43-101 would be the same had Alamos prepared the mineral reserve or mineral resource estimates under the standards of Regulation S-K 1300. Readers are also cautioned that while the SEC recognizes “measured mineral resources”, “indicated mineral resources” and “inferred mineral resources” under Regulation S-K 1300, readers should not assume that any part or all of the mineralization in these categories will ever be converted into a higher category of mineral resources or into mineral reserves. Mineralization described using these terms has a greater degree of uncertainty as to its existence and feasibility than mineralization that has been characterized as reserves. Accordingly, readers are cautioned not to assume that any measured mineral resources, indicated mineral resources, or inferred mineral resources that Alamos reports are or will be economically or legally mineable.
-7-
Accordingly, information contained in this Form 40-F and the documents incorporated by reference herein containing descriptions of Alamos’ mineral deposits may not be comparable to similar information made public by U.S. companies subject to the reporting and disclosure requirements under the United States federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder.
TAX MATTERS
Purchasing, holding, or disposing of Alamos’ securities may have tax consequences under the laws of the United States, Canada, and other jurisdictions that are not described in this Form 40-F.
NYSE CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
Alamos’ common shares are listed on the NYSE. Sections 103.00 and 303A.11 of the NYSE Listed Company Manual permit “foreign private issuers” (as defined in Rule 3b-4 under the Exchange Act) to follow home country practices in lieu of certain provisions of the NYSE Listed Company Manual. A foreign private issuer that follows home country practices in lieu of certain provisions of the NYSE Listed Company Manual must disclose any significant ways in which its corporate governance practices differ from those followed by domestic companies either on its website or in the annual report that it distributes to shareholders in the United States. A description of the significant ways in which Alamos’ corporate governance practices differ from those followed by domestic companies pursuant to NYSE standards is as follows:
Shareholder Meeting Quorum Requirement: The NYSE is of the opinion that the quorum required for any meeting of shareholders should be sufficiently high to insure a representative vote. Alamos’ quorum requirement is set forth in its Articles. A quorum for a meeting of Alamos’ shareholders is two persons who are, or who represent by proxy, shareholders who, in the aggregate, hold at least 5% of the shares entitled to be voted at the meeting.
Proxy Delivery Requirement: The NYSE requires the solicitation of proxies and delivery of proxy statements for all shareholder meetings, and requires that these proxies shall be solicited pursuant to a proxy statement that conforms to the SEC’s proxy solicitation and disclosure rules. As a foreign private issuer, Alamos is exempt from the proxy solicitation and disclosure rules set forth in Sections 14(a), 14(b), 14(c), and 14(f) of the Exchange Act. Alamos solicits proxies in accordance with applicable rules and regulations in Canada.
Shareholder Approval Requirement: Alamos intends to follow Toronto Stock Exchange (the “TSX”) rules for shareholder approval of new issuances of its common shares. In accordance with TSX rules, shareholder approval is required for certain issuances of shares that: (i) materially affect control of Alamos; or (ii) provide consideration to insiders in an aggregate of 10% or greater of the market capitalization of the listed issuer and have not been negotiated at arm’s length. Shareholder approval is also required, pursuant to TSX rules, in the case of private placements: (x) for an aggregate number of listed securities issuable greater than 25% of the number of securities of the listed issuer which are outstanding, on a non-diluted basis, prior to the date of closing of the transaction if the price per security is less than the market price; or (y) that during any six-month period are to insiders for listed securities or options, rights or other entitlements to listed securities greater than 10% of the number of securities of the listed issuer which are outstanding, on a non-diluted basis, prior to the date of the closing of the first private placement to an insider during the six-month period.
Equity Compensation Plans: Unlike the NYSE rules, there is no requirement in Canada for shareholder approval of compensation arrangements with shares purchased in the open market at fair value or for amendments to such arrangements. Alamos intends to comply with the TSX rules that require a listed company to obtain shareholder approval of any share compensation arrangement that involves the issuance of shares from treasury or to make amendments to such arrangements that require shareholder approval (in accordance with the TSX rules and the terms of such arrangement).
The foregoing is consistent with Canadian laws, customs and practices.
Independence of Directors
Alamos’ board of directors has determined that ten of its eleven directors, comprising a majority of the board, are “independent directors,” as that term is defined in the rules of the NYSE and that none of these ten directors has a material relationship with Alamos that would impair his or her independence from management or otherwise compromise his or her ability to act as an independent director.
-8-
The directors who have been determined to be independent on this basis are Alexander Christopher, Elaine Ellingham, David Fleck, Serafino Tony Giardini, Claire Kennedy, Chana Martineau, Richard McCreary, Monique Mercier, J. Robert S. Prichard, and Shaun Usmar.
Presiding Director at Meetings of Independent Directors
Alamos schedules regular meetings in which its independent directors meet without the participation of management and non-independent directors. J. Robert S. Prichard, the chair of the board of directors, serves as the chair at such sessions.
Communication with Independent Directors
Shareholders may send communications to the registrant’s independent directors by contacting Ward Sellers, Vice President, General Counsel of Alamos, Brookfield Place, 181 Bay Street, Suite 3910, Toronto, Ontario, Canada M5J 2T3, telephone: (416) 368-9932. Alternatively, communications may be sent directly to the board of directors by e-mail to [email protected].
Corporate Governance Guidelines
The rules of the NYSE require listed companies to adopt and disclose a set of corporate governance guidelines with respect to specified topics. Such guidelines are required to be posted on the listed company’s website. Alamos’ corporate governance principles are available for viewing on its website at www.alamosgold.com under About - Corporate Governance.
Board and Committee Charters
Alamos’ board of directors’ mandate and the charters for its audit committee, human resources committee, technical and sustainability committee, corporate governance and nominating committee, and public affairs committee are available for viewing on its website at www.alamosgold.com under About - Corporate Governance and are available in print to any shareholder who requests them. Requests for copies of these documents should be made by contacting Amber Howell, Assistant Corporate Secretary of Alamos, Brookfield Place, 181 Bay Street, Suite 3910, Toronto, Ontario, Canada M5J 2T3, telephone: (416) 368-9932. Alternatively, requests may be sent by e-mail to [email protected].
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
Alamos discloses any off-balance sheet arrangements in its Management’s Discussion and Analysis and noted there were none as at December 31, 2025.
MATERIAL CASH REQUIREMENTS
Alamos discloses material cash requirements as part of its "Liquidity and Capital Resources" and “Commitments” disclosure in its Management’s Discussion and Analysis and Financial Statements.
MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURE
Pursuant to Section 1503(a) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010, issuers that are operators, or that have a subsidiary that is an operator, of a coal or other mine in the United States are required to disclose in their periodic reports filed with the SEC information regarding specified health and safety violations, orders and citations, related assessments and legal actions, and mining-related fatalities under the regulation of the Federal Mine Safety and Health Administration (“MSHA”) under the Federal Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977, as amended (the “Mine Act”). During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, Alamos did not have any mines in the United States subject to regulation by MSHA under the Mine Act.
