(Nasdaq: AUGO) (B3: AURA33) (\u201cAura\u201d or the \u201cCompany\u201d)<\/strong> announced today that its issuer credit rating was upgraded by S&amp;P Global Ratings from \u2018B+\u2019 to \u2018BB-\u2019, with stable outlook and, on national scale, S&amp;P upgraded Aura\u2019s Brazilian National Scale rating from \u2018brAA\u2019 to \u2018brAA+\u2019 and revised the outlook from positive to stable. The rating on the debentures issued by Aura Almas Minera\u00e7\u00e3o S.A. (\u201cAura Almas\u201d) were also raised from \u2018brAA\u2019 to \u2018brAA+\u2019.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">The upgrade reflects expectations that record-high gold prices, combined with the Company\u2019s consistently increasing production volumes, will contribute to maintaining robust EBITDA and cash flow, supporting Aura\u2019s ongoing growth strategy. According to S&amp;P, the stable outlook is based on expectations of continued production growth over the next two years, driven by project development and capacity expansions at existing operations, alongside a gradual improvement in cash costs. The agency also anticipates that adjusted gross debt to EBITDA will remain in low levels, supported by favorable gold prices and higher output, even amid increased capital investments and dividend distributions. In addition, the outlook incorporates the expectation that the Company will preserve a solid liquidity position.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Rodrigo Barbosa, President and CEO of Aura, comments, \u201cThese rating upgrades on global and national scales reflect our consistent growth strategy and strong operating platform. In recent years, we&#8217;ve boosted production and advanced new projects, enabling sustainable growth while maintaining dividends and a solid balance sheet. With rising gold prices and contributions from Borborema and MSG, we project 340k-390k GEO in 2026 and aim to exceed 600k GEO in the years ahead.
